Invincible Haaland at the start

Chapter 157 The Eagle Strikes the Sky
The football flew to the goal at just the right height, and Giroud and Lin Yun came to the front and back points respectively.

The two got rid of the defenders respectively. Giroud took the lead in facing the football, but missed.

Lin Yun from behind jumped up lightly, shook his head vigorously and attacked the goal.

He hit it, but it was a pity that the top was too high.

Simeone, who escaped unharmed, grabbed his hair violently.

His haircut is obviously well-manicured, just as his team has done in La Liga this season, it is perfectly tailored and meticulous.

But in this game, Atletico Madrid has become a big colander, whether it is overall cooperation or individual combat, especially in terms of defense against Lin Yun, it is estimated that they will not even get a passing score.

Wenger played him a trick.

Although Arsenal is playing 4-4-2 in name, Giroud is the only one who is really in the forward position, and Lin Yun is active in the entire midfield. It is impossible to expect Godin to keep up with him.

This makes the markings arranged by Atletico Madrid a joke, and they can only engage in zone defense.

But it is not easy to rely on this set to restrain Lin Yun.

Can't catch up, can't pull, can't stop, can't shovel, can't overturn...

But there are gains and losses. Fortunately, Lin Yun's range of activities is too large, and the chances of directly facing the goal are much less, which prevents Atletico Madrid from being bombarded by his firepower throughout the game.

"It shouldn't be..." Lin Yun touched his forehead, "Could it be that I am a waste without the cheat?"

Regardless of his physical condition or his heading skills, he is above the standard, but he rarely scores goals with his headers, which is somewhat unscientific.

"Forget it, anyway, I play fantasy football..."

Although the goal was missed, Atletico Madrid began to fall into a comprehensive passive.

The fate of Shengshi Meiyan has a great impact on their offense. Adrian is still a bit lacking in enthusiasm. Villa can only be used as a surprise soldier now. It is not realistic to break the defense with one soldier at the same time.

Atletico Madrid's defensive numbers gradually increased, and slowly only two forwards remained in the frontcourt waiting for opportunities, and then slowly, even the two forwards began to return to their own half to participate in the defense.

The 10-0-0 formation that everyone ridiculed before the game really appeared on the court.

Not to mention the Arsenal fans, even the neutral fans couldn't help booing.

The bullets of the gunmen hit Atletico Madrid's tortoise shell again and again, leaving countless bullet marks, but they still failed to really break through the defense.

Who would have thought that Simeone would dare to do this when the score was behind...

"In stoppage time in the first half, the score was still 1-0. Arsenal temporarily took the lead with Lin Yun's goal, and Arsenal played very aggressively. Atletico Madrid was almost passively defending. If this continues , let alone tying the score, if they fail, Arsenal will expand their lead..."

"Of the last seven teams to score first in the Champions League final, only Bayern failed to win the title in 7.

And to expand the scope, among the nearly 36 teams that scored first in the Champions League final, 30 teams finally won!
In addition, 1-0 is the most common score in the first half of the Champions League final. The last team that was behind at halftime and could reverse the championship was Barcelona. Scored two goals in a row, and finally reversed 2006-0, and Barcelona's opponent at the time was Arsenal! "

As Lin Yun hit Gabi with a long shot and was cleared by Godin, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

Another half-time lead, another 1-0, another familiar formula, but none of the familiar scents were smelt by Arsenal fans.

The two sides returned to the locker room. The Arsenal generals, who had been unable to attack for a long time, were somewhat irritable, but the strength of the scene still made everyone full of optimism.

Although it is not possible to open champagne at halftime, from the expressions, everyone is full of confidence.

Wenger is very satisfied with the mental state of the players, but as the coach, he still has to remind everyone to be cautious, to be careful, to continue to strengthen the offensive, and not to ignore the defense...

"There are still 45 minutes until we lift the Champions League for the second time, but before that, I have to make sure that you are ready!"

Wenger said in a deep voice.

"We are facing the champions of La Liga, the champions of La Liga who have beaten Real Madrid and Barcelona!
It is a team that eliminated AC Milan, Barcelona, ​​Chelsea and came to the final of the Champions League!

They've been kicked the whole half, but we all know they won't be kicked all the time!
Guys, focus all your energy and treat these 45 minutes as the most important 45 minutes of your life, let alone penalty shootouts, we won't even give them a chance to go to extra time! "

After Wenger finished speaking, Arteta, wearing the captain's armband, continued: "Brothers, we made Arsenal's history last season, but that was not enough, far from enough, we are going to make the history of the UEFA Champions League today. , becoming the first team to defend the Champions League title after the restructuring! Nobody can stop us! Bayern Munich can’t, Manchester United can’t, Real Madrid can’t, and Atletico Madrid can’t!”

Wenger's eyes turned and stayed on Lin Yun.

Lin Yun just nodded silently, and Wenger was determined.

There is one thing to say, he has no confidence in his defense, and he was even prepared to be scored one or two goals by his opponent before the game, but he also has full confidence in his striker.

If the opponent can get one, you can get two or three on your side, and if the opponent can get two, you can get four or five on your side.

With Lin Yun, he is so confident!

The second half begins quickly.

It was almost a continuation of the second half of the first half. The counterattack that the fans were expecting did not come. Atletico Madrid continued to retreat. No one knew when Simeone would wait until he exerted his strength, or whether they had been suppressed by Arsenal. I couldn't breathe, I was really powerless to fight back.

In the 47th minute, Modric made a false shot at the top of the penalty area, and after getting rid of Cork's interception, he suddenly went straight.

The football entered the middle of the penalty area, Lin Yun snatched the football abruptly under the double-teaming of the big men, and hit the goal decisively.

The football quickly rolled towards the middle of the goal. Courtois was about to kneel down to make a save, but Giroud suddenly stretched out his foot and rubbed it.

In the 51st minute, Atletico Madrid was intercepted at halftime, and Arsenal made a comeback.

Lin Yun quickly changed positions from the center to the right, and Cazorla broke into the penalty area after two consecutive ones. He carried Mirada and Gobi to complete a volley, but the football bounced off Cork's feet. After leaving the penalty area, Atletico Madrid once again struggled to defend the next round.

Three minutes later, Arteta received a pass from Chamberlain and suddenly hit a world wave 3 meters away.

The football successfully passed through the crowd to the goal, but it was a pity that it was thrown out by the brave Courtois.

The football landed in the middle of the penalty area, Giroud's shot was blocked again in the melee, and Arsenal got a corner kick.

Except for Szesny, everyone came to Atletico Madrid's half. There was no room in the penalty area, so they ambush near the penalty area and surrounded Atletico Madrid's goal tightly.

Wenger was worried, and shouted loudly from the sidelines, reminding Mertesacker and Koscielny to pay attention to the dangerous elements on the other side, and don't let them counterattack if they fail to attack.

He is so nervous as an offensive team, let alone Simeone.

His eyes have been closely following Lin Yun's movement, as long as Godin can't keep up, his little heart will jump wildly along with it.

Lin Yun didn't just wait for luck in the crowd, but took the initiative to exit the restricted area and kept wandering around.

Modric, who was serving the ball, looked towards the goal, but he was actually observing Lin Yun's position from the corner of his eye.

Run up, pass the ball.

Everyone in front of the goal bent slightly, ready to jump up to fight for the top, but they didn't expect that the football didn't fly in front of the goal at all, but flew outside the penalty area.

Simeone covered his eyes with both hands, and then opened them quickly, watching Lin Yun get rid of Godin's pull, broke through Raul Garcia's interception, and arrived at the football landing point like lightning forward.

The football flew from the left corner flag area, and Lin Yun rushed over from the right side of the field, which could not allow him to hit the goal directly, but Lin Yun didn't make any adjustments, and volleyed directly in front of the falling football.

He turned his body in mid-air and turned to face the goal. At this time, his left foot hit the middle and lower part of the football fiercely.

With a "bang", this kick seemed to hit all Atletico Madrid people, giving them a sense of horror that even their souls were trembling.

In the eyes of fans all over the world, the football drew a short parabola, like an irregular rainbow, and poured fiercely into the left side of Atletico Madrid's goal.

Courtois didn't respond, he could only watch the football hit the net.

2-0.
"GOAL!!!!!! Modric made a clever long pass, Lin volleyed, and Arsenal broke the goal of Atletico Madrid again!"

"...Modric passed to the outside of the penalty area, and Lin Yun shot! The goal was scored!!! At the critical moment, the Demon Emperor's connection broke the deadlock again!"

"Fuck, one dares to pass, the other dares to shoot!"

"How many times do you have to practice it to be so smooth?"

"Lin Yun's volley is the only one in the world, right?"

"Steady, steady, the second big ear cup is coming! The cowhide is fried!"

After landing, Lin Yun staggered twice before standing still, and ran towards Modric immediately after seeing the football entering the goal.

The magic flute also rushed over immediately, but before the two had time to hug, a third person appeared in the middle.

Arteta inserted strongly and hugged Lin Yun into his arms first. Modric stepped forward and turned into hugging Brother Tazi with Lin Yun, as if he was the one who scored the goal.

Others quickly rushed up and celebrated wildly on the edge of Atletico's penalty area.

Courtois made a pose with his hands on his hips before walking into the goal and kicking hard at the football lying in it.

Godin supported his knees with his hands, panting heavily.

He swore that he had tried his best, and he almost moved his teeth, but it was still useless.

In the Weiaipi box, Florentino, Abramovich, Mansour and other big shots watching the game had different expressions, but their eyes were surprisingly the same.

The look of a predator finding its prey.

With great difficulty, Lin Yun squeezed out from the siege of his teammates, applauded casually to the auditorium, and finished the celebration perfunctorily.

Simeone called the players to the sidelines and arranged something excitedly. Everyone thought he was going to make some big moves. After the game started again, Atletico Madrid still looked like a bird, making people have to wonder if their bus drove to the door. It was broken before, and now I can't drive it even if I want to.

The game soon came to the 60th minute. Wenger's eyes began to sweep to the bench, ready to strengthen the defense, but the situation on the field changed suddenly.

Cazorla passed two people in a row and shot a cold arrow. The football was touched by the defender and bounced off the goal post.

Miranda hurriedly cleared the siege with a big foot, and Atletico Madrid launched a counterattack!

The personnel on both sides immediately moved back and quickly shifted their positions to Arsenal's side.

Villa received the pass, easily got rid of Mertesacker and broke into the penalty area, and completed a low shot in the expectant eyes of the Atletico fans.

The football went straight to the lower right corner of the goal, and it was about to cross the goal line, but Szesny, like a magic soldier, blocked the ball out of the baseline with one hand in a thrilling manner.

"...Atletico Madrid successfully played a wave of quick counterattack! Villa cleverly broke through and passed! Hit the goal! Ouch, it was just a little bit short! Atletico Madrid got a corner kick, I don't know if I can grasp it..."

Simeone's whole body is almost numb.

After holding back for an hour, I finally got such an opportunity, but it just disappeared...

Wenger let out a heavy breath, no longer hesitated, and with a big wave of his hand, Rosicky came on and replaced Chamberlain.

Lin Yun also returned to his own penalty area to participate in the defense.

However, Gabi's right corner kick did not fly to him, but flew to the middle of the penalty area and was pushed out by Arteta.

The football fell to the top of the penalty area, and Juan Fran rushed out from nowhere and pushed the ball back.

Lin Yun rushed towards the point where the football landed, but Godin was already one step ahead and headed the ball towards the goal.

Szesny hit halfway, and quickly turned around to catch the ball, but the football had already flown into the right side of the gate.

2:1.

"GOAL!!! Atletico Madrid successfully recovered a goal! The suspense is back!"

"Godin became the first Uruguayan to score in a Champions League final and the first defender to score in a Champions League final since Saul Campbell and Belletti in 2006.
For the first time since April 2010, he has scored in two consecutive official games, and all eight of his goals this season have been headers.

Atletico Madrid scored 6 headers in the Champions League this season, 11 set-piece goals, and both statistics ranked first among all teams..."

Relatively speaking, Arsenal are far inferior to others in these two aspects. Many of their goals come from underfoot goals in sports battles.

Simeone jumped up suddenly, applauded fiercely, and then waved wildly, signaling everyone to go back quickly, it's not time to celebrate yet.

Godin runs into the goal, holds the ball out, and the game continues...
