Chapter 65 Frustrating defeat
Xiao Qing was suddenly stunned and smiled at the black tower-like figure in front of him. He never thought that Drogba would come up to defend him at this time. He did not expect that he would directly engage in the most direct duel with Drogba in this game.
Xiao Qing has scored twelve goals in the scorer list, and Drogba is not to be outdone; although Xiao Qing is ranked first in the scorer list, and Tottenham Hotspur striker Difoe ranked second with eleven goals, Drogba's ten goals are now also catching up with. Although Drogba only won the Premier League Golden Boot once before, he has always been high on the scorer list; Xiao Qing is now the top scorer list, and Drogba is also launching an attack on the second Premier League Golden Boot in his personal career. They are all working hard, they represent the matchup of the highest-level striker, and they must defeat their opponents to achieve their own glory.
Fabregas seemed to have not been affected when facing the wall of Chelsea. Although this position was relatively flat and Chelsea's wall blocked the angle, it was difficult to shoot directly, Fabregas was still very confident because they could cooperate with free kicks to score. Although Chelsea looked tall and strong, Arsenal was not a vegetarian.
Fabregas took a free kick at the whistle. Although the man wall jumped up routinely, the ball still flew steadily over the man wall; the small penalty area was in chaos, and the players of both teams were working hard to get a better position and opportunity. Xiao Qing stared at the ball tightly, and saw that the ball flew past the front point and still had no trend of falling. This seemed to be a direct free kick attack; but Xiao Qing did not relax at all, and he was still fighting for opportunities.
Suddenly the ball began to fall. Xiao Qing burst out suddenly at this time; he kicked the grass suddenly. Xiao Qing roared and jumped high; and at this time, Xiao Qing also saw Drogba in front of him also jumped high. The two forwards faced the confrontation at this time, and they started the most direct conversation. Xiao Qing did not think that his physical fitness was much worse than Drogba, and now he was the offensive side, so Xiao Qing was very confident at this time.
Xiao Qing and Drogba touched the ball almost at the same time, and both of them were determined to win this time. Xiao Qing's forehead hit the ball, and Drogba's forehead also hit the ball. However, the inflatable ball was bounced out at the same time, while Xiao Qing and Drogba were both powerful heads continued; so with a "bang" sound, Xiao Qing and Drogba hit their heads, and Xiao Qing's eyes went black. He lost his balance and fell to the ground in the air.
Although the fans at this time were a little scared because of the strong conversation between Xiao Qing and Drogba, they were obviously paying more attention to the trajectory of the ball; although Xiao Qing and Drogba both wanted to hit the ball in the direction they wanted, they had no choice this time. They had already reached the limit they could do, and now they were just leaving their destiny.
Xiao Qing's eyes turned black, and Xiao Qing felt the pain on his forehead as if he felt the rain was heavier, and even a little sticky; Xiao Qing naturally knew that he must have been banned from the color, and this time he was undoubtedly knocked through his head in the collision. The terrifying monster was not a joke, and Xiao Qing seemed to suffer a great loss. But just when Xiao Qing was still losing his mind, there was a crazy cheer sound at the Emirates Stadium, and Xiao Qing was in a state of spirit.
Although Xiao Qing didn't know how the ball was drilled into the goal net, the fans saw it clearly; although Xiao Qing and Drogba touched the ball at the same time made the ball flight trajectory difficult to predict, Xiao Qing took a certain initiative in the competition for the top. So the ball flew towards the goal. Although Cech stood very straight, the ball flew high up in the clamping attack and flew over his fingertips.
Two to two, Arsenal equalized the score!
The Emirates Stadium broke out, and Arsenal fans were cheering wildly for this goal, cheering for Arsenal's wonderful performance in this peak battle; and at this time they found that Drogba was helpless and shaking his head with his hands on his hips. As for Xiao Qing's face was covered by Arsenal players. Xiao Qing smiled bitterly and did not celebrate the goal. Although it was worthy of his pride to help the team equalize the score, Drogba seemed to be more abnormal than his physical fitness, because that guy was fine, and Xiao Qing had to temporarily get treatment.
Arsenal equalized the score, which greatly encouraged the morale of Arsenal players. This game is not to be missed for them. A tie with Chelsea is also a score that they can accept. Although this makes it impossible for Arsenal to overtake in the standings, this is also a satisfactory result.
Arsenal began to strengthen their defense, and they needed to keep the score of this game. Although Arsenal also hoped to continue to work hard to reverse and win, they still needed to have a more secure game now. As for Chelsea, they were naturally quite unhappy at this time. From leading two goals to being equalized, this is a shame for Chelsea's first defense in the Premier League; and more importantly, the result of this game is quite important. Chelsea cannot allow the team's good situation to slip away like this.
Chelsea began to counterattack, and they put more attention on the offensive end; in the 78th minute, the rebel Ashley Cole, who was booed by Arsenal fans, was left behind, and Ferreira came on. Lampard broke through the defense of Vermalen and Gala in the penalty area, and finally Amunia stopped him from further advance near the baseline. In the 82nd minute, Cech's goal kick was directly pushed into Amunia's arms by Drogba.
Arsenal fans were very excited. They saw the team's bloodiness and they saw the team's strength in a difficult situation. With the cheers rising and falling, Arsenal defended the final score. Arsenal, who strengthened the defense, only left Xiao Qing to harass Chelsea's defense in the frontcourt.
But at the last moment of the game, Arsenal was hit again. Although Arsenal had worked very hard, their poor defense was still a bit ineffective. Although Arsenal's performance in the second half was excellent, they were still powerless in the end.
In the 86th minute of the game, Arsenal was a little inadequate to face the sudden breakthrough of Chelsea midfielder Essin. When Essin seemed to be trying to create a bigger gap, Fabregas applied for a yellow card even though the slip tackle was applied for; although this would allow Chelsea to get a free kick from 28 yards, this result was also very good for Arsenal.
Xiao Qing, who was wearing a bandage on his head, was pushing and shoving Chelsea players in secret. Xiao Qing, who was acting as a wall, felt that he was still useful when defending a free kick; but he was a little jealous when he saw Drogba standing in front of the free throw point. Although Drogba was very skilled, people's impression of him was still subconsciously his abnormal physical fitness, but he was the representative of Zhang Fei's ability to embroider, and his free kick was actually quite good.
In the first half, Drogba had scored a goal and indirectly created an own goal from Arsenal, but his performance was still strong in the second half. Although Xiao Qing is so far the most eye-catching player in the second half, although Drogba had lost a little in the face-to-face confrontation with Xiao Qing, now he has a chance to get back the scene.
After showing his shooting skills and strong physical fitness, Drogba showed his beautiful footwork. He kicked a exquisite free kick from twenty-eight yards away. Arsenal goalkeeper Amunia failed to react, and the ball flew into the net against the goal post.
At the Emirates Stadium, Drogba can only be seen slid and kneeling to celebrate. At this time, the Godless Gunners fans were at a loss; Arsenal had already performed strong enough in this game, but they were still going to lose. Now Arsenal was behind at home two to three, and the terrifying Warcraft Drogba continues to play the role of Arsenal's biggest victim.
Xiao Qing was also unstoppable at this time. Although he has strong psychological quality, he is still a human being after all and has psychological fluctuations. They have worked very hard, but Arsenal has no better way. Although he was defeated in the last round of the league, when he returned to the "East Chiefs Stadium", Arsenal is still generally favored by people at least to compete with the leader Chelsea. Indeed, Arsenal showed his strength to wrestle with Chelsea in the game, but I believe that even the most optimistic Arsenal fans have to admit that the gap between this team and Chelsea is still somewhat obvious.
Although it was only a goal difference, it was not like this in the game. Arsenal's two goals were scored by Xiao Qing, but they were not a mobile game among these two goals. It can even be said that they were lucky, and even the goals that Xiao Qing had to fight hard and tried his best. But looking at Chelsea's three goals, in addition to the own goal, Chelsea's tactics were undoubtedly more successful, and their performance on the offensive end was also better.
Chelsea's offense is very good, but what they are most proud of is defense; as for Arsenal, they really didn't get hit too many balls in this game, and the advantage in ball possession rate cannot represent more, because they cannot form threatening shots in many cases. Their offensive ability, which is known as the number one, has also suffered setbacks against Chelsea's muscle forest.
When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, Arsenal fans looked at the dazzling score silently in the heavy rain; three to two, the away team was ahead, Arsenal lost this key top-ranking battle, and Arsenal was temporarily thrown away by Chelsea in the standings.
Xiao Qing also stood silently in the heavy rain. This game had a great impact on Xiao Qing. The defeat in this game made Xiao Qing very frustrated. He didn't know what impact it would have on the team if he lost this game. He only knew that it would be a little more difficult to compete for the league championship now.
Regarding Drogba of Warcraft, Xiao Qing is just impressed by Chelsea now. Xiao Qing even thought that if Arsenal wants to reverse Chelsea in the standings, it may have to wait for the upcoming African Cup. By then, Drogba of Warcraft will temporarily leave Chelsea, which may be a good opportunity for Arsenal.
