Chapter 382 Match Point
For Arsenal.

The turmoil of their opponents is actually not what they care about.

Now the only one that can theoretically pose a threat to them is Manchester United.

Reached the FA Cup final.

And it was an easy victory over Manchester City.

This made many Arsenal players relax a bit.

So what follows = Arsenal paid the price for their relaxation.

They were No. 30 in the league in the third round and tied with Reading [-]-[-].

This gave Manchester United the opportunity to chase points.

Manchester United beat Southampton [-]-[-] at home.

The points gap was reduced to 9 points.

Although it is still a very big distance.

But this is definitely a great encouragement for Manchester United.

Arsenal, No. 30 in the league, faced Fulham at home in the fourth round.

This game was very difficult.

Fulham's fighting spirit to fight for relegation is unquestionable.

Now for Fulham, every point is equivalent to a life save!
So, they piled up 11 people in the penalty area.

They also know that beating Arsenal is almost impossible.

So Fulham worked hard for a draw.

It is indeed difficult to face such a team that only wants to defend.

But they were defeated in the second minute of No. 90.

Ye Luo made continuous passes from the wing and broke into the small penalty area.

Originally, Ye Luo was preparing to shoot by himself.

But helpless = there are too many people in the penalty area.

He passed to Sanchez who was completely unguarded in the back post - most of the Fulham players were guarding Yello in the front post.

Sanchez lived up to Yello's gift and scored the ball into the empty goal.

As soon as the ball is scored.

The biggest regret is definitely not the Fulham fans.

But Manchester United fans.

Manchester United will play Arsenal away from home in this round of the league.

This is not easy to play.

So Manchester United fans are wondering whether Arsenal will make a mistake.
to now.

Manchester United fans still have the fantasy of reversing the game and winning the championship.

however.

Three hours until the Arsenal game ends.

The whole of Anfield was celebrating wildly.

Manchester United also suffered a fatal blow.

exactly.

It's absolutely perfect!
They took a two-goal lead at Anfield and were beaten by Liverpool, who were struggling to fight for four, but scored a late equalizer.

Two to two! !

Manchester United suffered a bitter draw at Anfield.

After this round of the league, Manchester United is directly eleven points behind Arsenal.

There are only four rounds left in the league.

Although Manchester United still has the possibility of winning the championship in theory.

As long as Arsenal suffered four consecutive defeats in the last four league rounds.

And Manchester United's four consecutive wins will be enough.

But theories are just theories.

Manchester United fans know it.

Arsenal's title win is already unstoppable.

They only need two points to ensure they win the championship - of course, if it is a victory, then there will be no problem.

There is little hope for Manchester United fans.

They can only pray for a miracle.

and.

Arsenal's next league opponent.

Chelsea is also in need of points-Chelsea is currently only one point behind Liverpool, and the No. 4 position is quite unstable.

This game at Stamford Bridge attracted the attention of the entire Premier League.

First of all, this is Arsenal’s championship battle!

Just beat Chelsea.

Arsenal can win the Premier League title three rounds ahead of schedule.

Second.

This is also the prelude to the Four Wars.

Liverpool and Chelsea will meet in the final round of the league this season.

By the time.

The two teams will go head-to-head to compete for fourth place in the league.

And for Chelsea.

Before the final round of the top four battles arrives.

They must do everything they can to maintain their one-point advantage over Liverpool.

In this case.

The final round of the showdown at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea can be said to have the advantage.

Arsenal's away game against Chelsea.

It will be the most watched and watched game in the Premier League this season.

But most people think so.

Chelsea have had their ups and downs this season.

It may be difficult to stop Arsenal from winning the championship.

"Everything is ready: championship, cheers, and flowers!"

This was the headline in the North London Evening News.

in the article.

Through interviews with several Arsenal fans.

The mentality of Arsenal fans looking forward to the team's title defense is vividly written.

The media's voices are optimistic about Arsenal.

In this promising situation.

Chelsea's voice.

It seems relatively weak.

Because now everyone is praising the strongest Arsenal.

But even so.

Chelsea also showed their tenacity.

"This is our home ground and we will fight until the last minute. Arsenal may win the league title this season, but we don't want it to be on us."

Chelsea captain.

Goalkeeper Cech said.

Ranieri didn't survive this time.

Because he felt that the whole life was of no use.

Fighting opponents with real swords and guns at their own home court. With the strength of Chelsea's lineup, they also have the confidence to do so.

"We're not going to let them win the championship easily."

In terms of television broadcasts.

Arrange this game at the last moment of this round of the Premier League.

Golden hour in the evening.

The thing to consider is the ratings.

Now the eyes of fans throughout the Premier League.

Everyone is paying attention to this game.

Everything is ready.

The protagonists should also appear.

Maybe Arsenal underestimated the enemy a little.

Or maybe Chelsea's defense is really tough.

This high-profile battle has been going on for nearly 10 minutes.

Arsenal didn't score.

Chelsea, playing at home, chose to defend.

Acting very far-fetched.

As the season comes to an end.

The importance of competition is also increasing.

Arsenal has indeed encountered such opponents continuously.

The previous Fulham was.

So is Chelsea now.

These teams have chosen to defend.

Their first goal is to prevent conceding the ball.

Instead of thinking about how to score goals.

But despite Chelsea's strict defense.

But Arsenal are in no hurry.

Because it is very simple.

Even if the game is a draw.

Arsenal will also win the title three games ahead of schedule - Manchester United suffered two consecutive draws.

Who would have thought of this?

So now for Arsenal.

Win even if you get one point.

Even if Arsenal were tied by Chelsea in this game, it would not be a big deal to them. They could still celebrate their victory and defend their title in advance.

"If Chelsea faces Arsenal with this attitude, even if they do get a point, it will be very disgraceful! This is their own home court!"

The commentator was critical of Chelsea's choice of defensive tactics.

You're welcome.

After all, if this is the case, the game will not look good.

however.

Just when everyone thought Chelsea were just holding on.

Chelsea suddenly showed their fangs - Ranieri could later lead Leicester City to a miraculous championship. He was not a mediocre coach.

He has his own way.

What he is best at is probably winning when he is weak!
This was the case with Leicester City later.

Chelsea now also has a bit of this charm.Today's Chelsea can be said to be a three-armed team.

They cannot tolerate being stepped on by Arsenal to win the championship.

So they have a very strong fighting spirit.

"Arsenal continued to siege, Cazorla split the ball, Cancelo's cross came in, and the low ball came in!!!"

"Gary Cahill's clearance."

"Peripheral!!"

Just now.

Stamford Bridge suddenly boiled over.

frontcourt! !
It was Lampard who got the ball! !
Lampard did not stop the ball, but directly transferred it diagonally! !

Ahead, a figure starts near the midline!

Onside! ! !
"Azar!!"

amid the chants of the home fans at Stamford Bridge.

The Belgian star dribbled the ball into the penalty area and faced the attacking Szczesny and chose to lob!

The football suddenly passed over Szczesny's head and fell into the net!
A few seconds ago, the ball was in Chelsea's half and Chelsea were pinned down by Arsenal.

In an instant.

Chelsea suddenly showed her fangs.

Several seconds passed.

Only then did someone finally react. ,

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!"

"The ball is in! The ball is in!! Hazard!! Hazard!! Beautiful!!"

"Chelsea's counterattack was too fast and deadly. Who would have thought that they would score on their first offensive attempt!"

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy for Arsenal to defend their title at Stamford Bridge!"

"Chelsea was the bully who stood in front of them. The flowers and celebrations prepared by the Arsenal people were smashed to pieces!"

On the pitch at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea fans cheered.

"Want to step on us and win the championship? Dream on!!
"Go to hell Arsenal!!"

"This is not a place for you to run wild!!"

Chelsea fans chanted, cursed, cursed and gave the middle finger to the Arsenal people.

They also held their breath.

Now, this breath seems to have been completely vented.

And after Hazard scored.

Also ran all the way.

Rushed in front of the camera lens.

Yelling at the camera.

His voice echoed through the cameras to all the fans watching on live television.

"We are Chelsea, damn it! Don't try to step on us and win the championship!!!"

This is the voice of all Chelsea people.

Chelsea people are celebrating wildly.

Compared to their madness.

The Arsenal players and the Arsenal fans who came to the away game were still in a daze.

They really didn't expect that Chelsea would have the energy to counterattack even though they were defending.

Just one counterattack and he scored!

Yelo has never underestimated Chelsea.

And now.

It turns out.

Chelsea are quite tenacious.

But the tenacity of the opponent can support the difficulty of winning the championship.

No?
Ye Luo clapped his hands and encouraged his teammates.

"Defeating a powerful enemy to win the championship will add a lot of glory to our championship!"

Ye Luo said.

Arsenal's players also reacted.

Yes.

This is a game about winning the championship.

Although it is said that even if they lose to Chelsea, Arsenal only need to score one point to ensure the championship.

but.

Champions always have to be safe.

"Who would have thought that Chelsea would score the first goal while defending? But now that I think about it, it's not surprising. Arsenal's opponent is Chelsea after all. Now Chelsea definitely has no shortage of motivation to defeat Arsenal at home!"

Just when the narrator was talking.

Hazard, who returned to the court, was still shaking his fist at the stands.

Under his instigation, Stamford Bridge completely turned into a crater.

Chelsea fans vented their heat to their heart's content.

Although they were kicked out of the championship very early.

But for Chelsea fans.

Their biggest concern is the team's top four position.

Can I participate in the Champions League?

It is so important for a team.

Whether it is the team's income or its attraction to players, it can be said that whether a team can participate in the Champions League is the most important consideration for whether a team can remain among the top teams in Europe.

Even Liverpool back then.

Known as one of England's super giants like Manchester United.

Unable to participate in the Champions League for several consecutive seasons.

In the end, the attraction to players can only attract players like Carroll and Lambert.

So it is inevitable that Chelsea fans will be happy.

If they can beat Arsenal at home.

Then they will have a one-point lead when they face Liverpool in the final round, which means they only need to remain unbeaten to ensure the top four.

And if this game is lost.

Then Chelsea may have to defeat Liverpool to finally rank fourth in the standings.

The difficulty of this.

Obviously completely different.

After the game restarts.

Chelsea continue to defend! !

After taking a one goal lead.

Chelsea's defensive confidence has also increased.

In the past, if we defended until the end, the result would be a draw at most.

But it is different now.

They can win the game as long as they don't let Arsenal score.

With confidence in mind.

Chelsea's players defended even more tenaciously.

They seemed to have engines installed at their feet.

Tirelessly covering every inch of space in the backcourt.

It became very difficult for Arsenal to threaten Cech's goal.

Even center Demba Ba retreated to the edge of the penalty area to participate in defense.

Cech also showed excellent form in this game.

The fans in the stands continued to cheer for Cech's performance.

Chelsea fans didn’t have any problem with Chelsea choosing to stick to their guns.

Because that's the way Chelsea is.

Now everyone knows what the main contradiction is: that is, Arsenal cannot be allowed to step on Chelsea to win the championship!
Faced with Chelsea's stubborn defense.

Arsenal actually has no good solution.

They continue to create crossing opportunities.

Or a long shot from the middle.

Or create set pieces.

These are the tricks to break through dense defense.

Otherwise, breaking through dense defense is a world-class problem.

sidelines.

Wenger is not in a hurry either.

After all, there is still a long time to play.

He is confident that the team will eventually score a goal.

And he felt strange - why did Chelsea think they could stop Arsenal's goal by sticking to it?

Where does their confidence come from?

,.
Ranieli also didn't want to use this tactic of almost being passively beaten.

But helpless.

against Arsenal.

Still, this tactic is relatively cost-effective.

Ranieli is a cautious and conservative person.

But now he has to take a gamble.

Bet on Chelsea's counterattack coming first.

It was Arsenal's goal that came first.
In fact, Ranieli has the capital to gamble.

His capital comes from Hazard.

Hazard is fast, stable at the bottom, good at dribbling, and has strong propulsion ability.

Azar is here.

Chelsea's counterattack will be very threatening.

Plus Demba Ba, who has a strong impact.

The strike partnership formed by the two can be said to be Ranieli's greatest confidence.

on the other hand.

Hazard couldn't score even if he counterattacked.

He can also create set pieces.

The set piece.

Chelsea also has several players with very good heading skills who can threaten Arsenal's goal.

When facing Arsenal.

Ranieli completely placed his team on an extremely weak side.

He made the tactical arrangements for this game with the mindset of leading a relegation team to a championship contending team.

Lower yourself.

then
Waiting for Arsenal to make a mistake.
