After three consecutive corner kicks, Arsenal's penalty area was already abuzz with panic, but when Ben Afa kicked the ball out, goalkeeper Martinez still jumped high and took the ball into his hands.

He stabilized the situation.

The goalkeeper's ability to perform so stably can stabilize the morale of the military, and the teammates will at least feel at ease.

He didn't tee off immediately.

After all, the total score is still one goal ahead, and it is more important for the team to take a break. The pressure from the three corner kicks just now was too great, and everyone may not have recovered yet.

The Rennes players did not intend to retreat and directly launched a counterattack on the spot.

Martinez originally wanted to kick the ball, but Lichtsteiner ran back and waved at him.

He passed the ball anyway.

Although Lichtsteiner performed poorly in the defensive midfielder position, he still dared to take the ball. At this time, he played the role of a veteran and dared to take the ball in the backcourt without disrupting the formation.

He calmly distributed the ball to Xhaka who retreated.

Xhaka was not as calm as him, because the opponent was very quick to grab the ball, and if he was half a beat slower, he might be intercepted by the opponent. He simply played a wall-to-wall coordination with Van der Beek, and then transferred the ball to

Left road.

After Koscielny stopped the ball near the sideline, he still didn't have the confidence to move forward. Fortunately, Lichtsteiner ran over again at this time.

But after Lichtsteiner caught the ball, he kicked the ball back to Mustafi behind him.

The ball that finally reached the midfield returned to the backcourt.

There is no problem with this decision. After all, Arsenal now have one less player and only one Luo Wu in front. If Luo Wu does not pass the ball, it will be difficult for Luo Wu to grab the high ball in the frontcourt.

But the Rennes team pressed forward in a swarm, and it was impossible to give them a chance to breathe.

Arsenal's defense was crushed again, and this time Mustafi in the backcourt had to make a big save.

The ball flew across the half-court and landed at the back left of the Rennes team. Luo Wu still ran up to it. Whether he could grab it was one thing, but whether he could grab it or not was another matter.

Although he didn't look fast, he was just showing off, but at least he allowed the Rennes players to get rid of the ball quickly.

After Rennes midfielder Breno got the ball in the middle, he waved his hand to signal his teammates to continue pressing.

Together with Green and Andre, they formed a continuous triangle attack. Arsenal players were exhausted and quickly reached the top of the penalty area.

Sarr on the right side of the court also ran over to respond. Andre, who was in possession of the ball, immediately knocked the ball across. Before the ball could reach Andre, Saka raised his left foot, seemingly about to shoot.

.

Lichtsteiner, who was blocked in the middle, immediately flew to block the hole of the gun, and his whole body was in the air, which was timely enough.

But when Sal's left foot landed on the turf, he missed the ball.

He missed the ball!

There was no shot at all, but the ball was given to Ben Arfa who withdrew from the penalty area.

Ben Alpha is the final finisher.

Just near the corner of the penalty area, Ben Arfa met the ball with his left foot and shot!

The shooting angle was actually not good, but the ball drew a very strong arc and flew into the penalty area, and turned rapidly towards the upper left corner of the goal.

There is nothing to say about his shooting skills.

Although Martinez in front of the goal judged the right direction and quickly moved a step to the far corner, he immediately flew up. He stretched out his left hand, but he could not touch the ball.

Just as he was saying it was over, the ball hit the goalpost.

Duang!

The ball bounced out of the penalty area.

Arsenal narrowly escaped disaster.

Rennes' luck was so bad that Ben Arfa almost scored four goals.

If this goal is scored, the total score will be 5:5, and both sides will be back on the same starting line.

But today the goddess of victory especially likes to joke, always jumping back and forth between the two teams.

Ben Alpha was about to cry, but he almost succeeded.

Van de Beek immediately chased the ball, but soon Reading left midfielder Green sent a flying tackle from the front.

Scared, Van Der Beek quickly picked up the ball and then moved to the right to avoid it.

But precisely because of this evasive action, the ball fell to Andre's feet.

After Andre came up, he immediately passed the ball diagonally into the right side of Arsenal's penalty area.

Niang finally got a chance, suddenly flashed past Mustafi, and succeeded in countering offside!

He calmly pushed his chest forward, dumped the ball two meters in front of him, and then shot with his right foot without looking at the goal!

boom!

Shocking!

It was just in the right corner of the small penalty area, too close to the goal. Martinez moved here in time as soon as possible and opened his arms to pounce, but Niang shot the ball to the far corner.

It seems that he is not looking at the goal, but in fact a forward of this level cannot have a bad sense of smell in front of the goal.

"goal!"

"gooooal!"

"goooooooal!"

"Nion!"

"Niang, finally scored a goal! This striker, who has been almost forgotten by people, finally grasped one after wasting many scoring opportunities."

"I think the total score has really become 5:5. With more and less, Arsenal is now in a very passive state. As long as they continue to maintain such suppression, they are the side more likely to win."

"The reason why Arsenal has reached this point is entirely because of Haaland's fate. If he had not been stupidly sent off with a red card, Arsenal should have the advantage now."

"Although the Chinese is still on the court, now he alone is unable to help Arsenal maintain the advantage. The game may end in a surprising way."

"But we can never ignore that the Chinese have a champion's heart. The more difficult the situation, the more extraordinary his performance is."

Although the Frenchman Niang was celebrating wildly, the big shot of the scene was given to Luo Wu.

If Niang knew that even if he scored a goal, he wouldn't be able to get a close-up shot, he would definitely be very depressed.

There is no trace of disappointment in Luo Wu in the camera, his eyes are very calm.

Perhaps he was mentally prepared and knew that he might face such a dilemma.

He suddenly remembered a saying from ancient China, Mencius' "Heaven will confer great responsibilities on these people..."

Perhaps this was God deliberately testing his will.

There is always a need to fight in the face of adversity.

This is not the highest level of difficulty! I have encountered much more serious situations before.

The biggest problem now is whether his teammates can get the ball to his feet. He can't always run back to the backcourt to get the ball, and then break through one dragon to the opponent's penalty area to complete the goal. That is too unrealistic.

Already.

Everyone must know him quite well now. As soon as he gets the ball, at least two players will come up to him. No matter how awesome he is, he can't get past everyone.

And when he is far away from the goal, the opponent is likely to foul him with a high probability.

And when he dribbles the ball into shooting range, those guys don't dare to foul and choose to surround him, preferring to let him pass the ball to other teammates.

At that time, it was a bet that his teammates would not be able to put the ball into the goal.

But now the Rennes team has one more player, and Arsenal can't even defend, let alone find a way to attack.

Lichtsteiner's rhetoric just sounded nice, but in reality it was quite bony and did not prevent Rennes from scoring in defense.

The reason why Niang was missed was because there was one less person, and despite all the calculations, he still couldn't keep an eye on him.

The Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium started scolding again, and naturally it was Haaland.

Haaland is the culprit. If you don't scold him, who will blame him? The players on the court have tried their best, and the game may be ruined by Haaland.

There was no way out, and it was almost a last-ditch battle. The only tactic Emery could think of was to call on his disciples to send the ball to Luo Wu's feet, and try not to let Luo Wu retreat.

But the effect of this was not achieved.

After Luo Wu drove the ball back, no ball was passed. With the advantage of one more player, Rennes suppressed Arsenal in the midfield and the ball could not be passed.

Arsenal's penalty area continued to be turbulent, with Martinez making high passes and low blocks, once again blocking Niang's two shots.

Niang finally showed his vitality on the front line.

Arsenal's midfield continued to lose ground and Rennes played very tough.

Today's Rennes formation is 451. Their five midfielders are more numerous than Arsenal, making them difficult to defend against.

Van de Beek was knocked to the ground when he picked up the ball in the middle, but the referee did not blow the whistle and the Rennes team continued to attack.

Ben Arfa controlled the ball in the middle and played a wall-to-wall cooperation with Andre, and then advanced to the top of Arsenal's penalty area again. Just when everyone thought he would kick to hit the goal again, his right foot suddenly kicked in the opposite direction.
To be continued...
