Chapter 396: The price of adventure

Cell phone,

Porto has a goal lead. They are very active in defense and have great moves, but they are steady in attacking. They try to pass the ball safely to reduce the risk of being counterattacked by the opponent after losing the ball.

Fernando took a few meters forward and saw the opponent coming to block, he passed the ball to Hulk. The same is true for Hulk. He saw that the left side was tightly defensive, and when the opponent came to press, he passed the ball back to Gao. Xiaodong, slow down the rhythm and consume as much time as possible.

Time is on Porto's side. The Arsenal are now racing against time. When the Porto players are in possession of the ball, they are more aggressive than Porto.

Although Arsenal only put two people on the front line, the two full-backs Nasri and Walcott pressed very forward and were no different from the wingers. They tried their best to force the defenders together with the forwards, so that Porto could not be behind. Safe possession of the ball on the court.

Under Arsenal's fast press, Porto finally lost the pass after returning to the goalkeeper Helton, and Helton drove to the frontcourt with a big foot.

Falcao struggled to compete with Touré. He had a good header, but the height difference was large. The ball was easily topped by Toure to his partner Zhu Lu, Zhu Lu stopped the ball and then passed to Song, Song passed to the retreat to take the ball. Fabregas, Fabregas kept the ball directly to the side to find Walcott, Arsenal continued to attack from the side.

At this time, Sarnia has quickly assisted up, involving Meireles.

Fabregas split the sides too fast, Fernando made a step slower to make up the side, and Walcott got the chance to single out Sissokojo.

Through the last game, Walcott knew that Sissokoho's speed was not slow. He did not use speed to force, but made a bottom move and suddenly cut across behind Fernando, who had just made up the side.

Fernando was swayed, mixed with garlic in his footsteps, and almost fell to the ground, unable to return to the defense center. Sissokoho had to continue to follow Walcott.

Van Persie pulled the side alert, Walcott passed back from the heel and passed the ball to Van Persie.

Seeing Van Persie take the ball, Meireles gave up Sarnia to return to defense at high speed.

Regardless of Meireles' return to defense, it was too late. When he flew to intercept, Van Persie had already passed the ball.

This is a bocce ball. Adebayor and Walcott in the middle will grab the spot together. Porto's two central defenders will defend Adebayor and Walcott.

Alves restricted Adebayor very well, but Walcott was faster and more agile. Rolando got stuck, but Walcott went around to grab the landing point.

Walcott took an arc, slowed a half step, just rubbed the ball, did not hit the right part, the ball flew out of the baseline against the goalpost.

The stands exclaimed again and again. It was only five minutes after the opening, and Arsenal created a very threatening shot opportunity. Porto fans were a little panicked.

However, after the Porto people panic, the Arsenal fans panicked when they saw Van Persie fell to the ground just after passing the ball.

Van Persie injured his ankle last time, and injured his knee last time. The injury was just right. Arsenal fans have been nervous about asking for a comeback for this life-and-death battle. Unexpectedly, Van Persie fell in just five minutes.

"Van Persie won't recur in his old injury, right? Actually, he was just hit by Melales who was back on defense. The action is really not big. Don't get injured so quickly. Van Persie's attack on Arsenal is very important. He is Arsenal. Bergkamp of Navarre.” Porto’s on-site commentator said it was a pity, but there was a hidden joy in his tone.

Wenger mentioned his throat at once. He clasped his hands and stared at Van Persie to see if he could stand up.

It was okay. After a while, Van Persie rubbed his knees and stood up and re-entered the game. Wenger breathed a sigh of relief.

The game continued, and the Arsenal, who desperately needed victory, played very resolutely offensively.

After Zhulu's comeback, the Arsenal's defense became more stable, and the two full-backs assisted more assuredly.

After Van Persie came on the field, with Van Persie's flexible running and making the ball, Adebayor no longer fights alone, and the front line puts a lot of pressure on Porto.

Five minutes later, in the face of Porto's high pressure, the outstanding Arsenal still controlled the ball and gained more and more shot opportunities.

In the fifteenth minute of the game, Arsenal played two sides of Porto consecutively. After pulling the front of Porto's penalty area, Nasri suddenly crossed the middle.

Fabregas faced Gao Xiaodong's defense and passed the ball directly to Van Persie without stopping, and moved forward himself.

Van Persie ran outside the penalty area with the ball under Rolando's defense and passed the ball to Adebayor.

Adebayor was in the penalty area, and Alves did not dare to foul, so he could only cling to Adebayor.

Adebayor didn't stop the ball and passed it directly to Fabregas.

Fabregas, under Gao Xiaodong's defense, kept the ball back and passed it to Van Persie.

Although it was a three-on-three defense at this time, Arsenal's several consecutive wall-to-wall coordination fainted Porto's defense. When Fabregas passed the ball to Van Persie again, Rolando had lost his position and had to Take the risk and grab it.

Van Persie is a left-footed player. Rolando did a good job. He took the risk and jumped to the left of the center without giving Van Persie a chance to dial the ball to the left.

But Van Persie is good with his left foot and right foot. He buckled the ball with his left foot, buckled Rolando, and followed up with his right foot to shoot.

At the time when Van Persie smashed the ball, Gao Xiaodong had arrived quickly. He didn't have time to steal, so he stuck his foot on the ball shot by Van Persie.

Gao Xiaodong bought the skill of volley volley, and the timing of his kick was very good. Just after the ball left Van Persie’s instep, Gao Xiaodong was suffocated by Gao Xiaodong’s kick. The ball hit Van Persie’s kicked foot. Vigorously also passed to Van Persie's feet.

The ball flew out and Van Persie fell to the ground again.

Since Van Persie had fallen to the ground before, and this time it was equivalent to a pair of feet, everyone didn't care, and the ball hadn't flew too far, Arsenal and Porto players were eager to grab the ball, no one Go to Van Persie.

The ball was snatched by Meireles who came back. He didn't dare to take it carelessly and kicked it out of the sideline with a big kick.

The ball cleared, and everyone discovered that Van Persie was lying on the ground and hadn't gotten up yet.

Don't have an accident. Don't have an accident. Wenger's heart was hanging again, and every time Van Persie and Zhulu fell, he would be frightened.

Everyone thought that Van Persie would stand up as before and continue the game, but this time Van Persie did not stand up, but sat on the ground and made a gesture of substitution.

Wenger's heart suddenly turned cold. He knew that it was a risk to let Van Persie play, but he had to take this risk at the moment of life and death. He didn't expect Arsenal's luck to be so bad. It just played for 15 minutes. I was injured again.

But in an instant, Wenger sent the anger to Gao Xiaodong. When he was on the stretcher, he yelled at Ferreira: "You are too barbaric! Every action of that Chinese man seems to be killing."

Ferreira angered Wenger and said, "Why is that one interception? Is there a problem with the action?"

Soon, the big screen of the stadium showed the slow motion of Van Persie's injury just now. Gao Xiaodong was not wrong. It was just an opposite foot across the ball. Van Persie suffered a loss and caused an old injury.

Wenger sighed, but he could only admit that he was unlucky and let Bendtner play to replace the injured Van Persie.

The on-site commentator sighed: "Van Persie’s role at Arsenal is irreplaceable. He not only has excellent shooting skills, but can also provide inspiration and imagination. Unfortunately, he ended up injured again. It cannot be said that Wenger made Van Persie a mistake. In the Champions League semi-final battle, changing any coach will take risks, but...this is the price of risk...",.
