The Prince of Inter Milan starts with Brother Xiaosa

Chapter 41: Killing
  “The second half continued, we are leading now, they are the ones who need to worry.

They will definitely launch an attack after the start. We must be steady and the midfielders should also pay attention to protecting the defense.

Then comes the offense. Be more efficient and concise on the counterattack, and shoot when you have the chance. As long as we steal one more, we can win this game! "

Leo's long-range shot near the end of the first half was also recognized by head coach Martin Jol.

"Don't hesitate if you have the chance, long shot is also an important scoring weapon!"

It makes sense for the Dutch to say this. Before they could return to the court, the situation in London suddenly changed and it started to rain.

After the ground at the Emirates Stadium is "lubricated" by rain, it will seriously affect the ground coordination that Arsenal is good at.

In such weather, the goalkeeper's vision will be disturbed by falling raindrops, and the slippery ball will become their nightmare.

Of course, it is easier to succeed if the ball is fast and at a tricky angle.

At the start of the second half, neither side made substitutions.

Arsenal, who wanted to equalize the score as soon as possible, struck first.

In the 48th minute, after Hleb and Rosicky kicked the wall together, the Belarusian midfielder dunked Janas on the edge of the penalty area and sent a wonderful pass. The unguarded Adebayor kicked from the left side of the penalty area. Low cumshot!
  Tottenham goalkeeper Robinson pounced on the ball, but failed to save it. The ball slipped between his hands and went into the far corner of the goal.

The ball went in! One to one!

The home team seized the opportunity to equalize the score at the beginning of the second half!

The Togolese striker slid passionately to his knees in the corner flag area. This was the sixth time he scored against Tottenham. This goal was also his tenth Premier League goal this season.

The die-hard Gunners at the scene gave Adebayor warm applause to save face.

Is this Robinson used to having butter hands? Why did such a mistake happen again? Why do all England goalkeepers seem to have this problem?

What to do now, it seems to be different from the head coach's plan.

Martin Jol shook his head. Arsenal did play well in this goal, but Tottenham haven't lost yet!
  He reassured the players on the field and continued to play according to the tactics formulated during the halftime break.

Arsenal, playing at home, would not be satisfied with a draw and continued their offensive amidst the cheers of their supporters.

Arsenal made a comeback a minute later. Adebayor dribbled the ball into the penalty area and was barely cleared by Tottenham defenders. Flamini's long-range shot from the outside missed the upper right corner.

Ebou broke through Lee Young-pyo's defense on the right and sent a cross. Rosicky's shot in the middle of the penalty area ahead of Kabul did not hit the right spot and went directly out of the baseline.

Sagna broke through to the baseline at high speed from the right and then made an inverted triangle pass. Adebayor overpowered two Tottenham defenders and headed the ball wide again.

The continuous offensive ignited the enthusiasm of Arsenal fans in the stands. They stood up and cheered for the team.

However, their efforts failed again and again, and the continuous siege failed to score any goals, causing the home team's players to gradually enter a stage of weak offense.

The Lily Legion, whose defensive pressure was greatly reduced, could finally free up some hands to organize offense.

Opportunity for a quick counterattack, Bell used his trademark rapid gallop to rush into the half-court to receive Leo's long diagonal pass.

The left-footed volley from the left side of the penalty area was hit by Almunia, and then Robbie Keane's supplementary shot in front of the small penalty area missed.

Missed an excellent scoring opportunity, the Irish shook his head in frustration.

Both Tottenham and Arsenal were dissatisfied with the one-to-one score on the field.

In the 72nd minute of the game, Wenger took the lead in making substitution adjustments, and Bendtner came off the bench to replace Eboue.

Replacing a defender with a forward, the intention of strengthening the offense is obvious. Martin Jol also made substitutions, with Hoddlestone and Defoe replacing Janus and Robbie Keane.

Both of these were match-up substitutions, and Tottenham's formation did not undergo any changes.

With Bendtner in the frontcourt as a fulcrum, Arsenal's offensive tactics have become more diverse.

But at the same time, their defense inevitably has more holes than before.

Leo ripped open the Gunners' defense with another accurate through ball, and Berbatov passed through the gap between the two defenders!

Almunia had no choice but to go up and knock down the Bulgarian who was about to have a single opportunity.

The referee Stiles' whistle was very decisive, and there was no doubt that it was a penalty!
  The Arsenal players surrounded the referee, but the penalty could not be changed, and there was no problem with the penalty.

Tottenham's top penalty taker Robbie Keane has been replaced, and Berbatov stood in front of the penalty spot without hesitation.

But a shocking scene happened. Berba's penalty kick towards the lower left corner of the goal was unexpectedly saved by Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia, who struggled to save it with one palm!
  Tottenham wasted a valuable penalty opportunity!

Maybe even luck was not on their side today. Head coach Martin Jol's eyes widened in disbelief.

In the 79th minute, Arsenal won a corner kick on the left.

Rosicky lobbed the ball into the back of the penalty area, and Danish youngster Bendtner, who had just been replaced by Wenger, scored with an unmarked header!
  Two to one!

Arsenal overtook the score and the whole Emirates Stadium was in an uproar!
  They seemed to be happy a little too early, the game was not over yet.

Tottenham also replaced a young player, Taarabt came on as a substitute, replacing South Korean full-back Lee Young-pyo.

Bale returned to the left-back position, and Taarabt appeared at the left midfielder.

In the 85th minute, it was the cooperation of Bell and Taarabt on the left that broke through Arsenal's defensive players and passed to the center.

Leo took advantage of the situation outside the penalty area and moved the ball to the right of his body. He left space to pull out his posture and flew up, then kicked the ball hard.

Almunia was very focused and prepared to make a save. He flew over the moment Leo kicked a long shot.

"Snapped!"

This was the sound of the collision between the glove and the ball. The ball was blocked by the Arsenal goalkeeper and did not go in.

At this time, a short figure elusively shook off the defense of the home team's central defender and fired a blast through the goal!

England forward Defoe came on as a substitute and scored with a supplementary shot!
  Two to two! Tottenham equalized the score and the two sides returned to the same starting line!
  Could it be that because I didn’t bring shooting boots today, I just couldn’t score?
  Leo shook his head. Although another long-range shot failed, Leo seemed to have found the feeling.

As the game time went by, there was not much time left for both sides. They both seized the last moment to score another goal to kill the game.

Hoddlestone's long-range shot went a little too far, it must have been a flaw.

Bendtner responded by hitting the goal with too much force and flying directly into the stands.

Ninety minutes of regular time ended, and the referee only gave three minutes of stoppage time.

Taarabut was cut off while dribbling the ball inside, and Leo saw the right opportunity and suddenly grabbed the ball and regained the ball.

Before the Arsenal defenders could get back in position, Leo took two steps and fired a powerful volley from outside the penalty area with an outside kick!
  Almunia took off again, but this time he failed to save the team. The ball changed its direction slightly after being touched by him, but it still got into the goal.

Three to two!
  The referee declared the goal valid, and then blew the whistle to end the game!
  A real lore!
