Chapter 126: Gunners Dynasty

Bright lights filled the scene, and the Stadium of Light was in an extremely quiet environment.

On the field, the players were nervously arranging the quotas and order for the penalty shootout.

In the stands, fans from both sides were afraid to express their anger.

For any game, a penalty shootout will definitely bring blood-spraying tension and excitement.

One goal determines the outcome, sudden death rule, etc.

All this tells everyone that every penalty kick and every choice is extremely important.

At the same time, this also puts great pressure on the players.

"First penalty! Who's going to take it?!"

Mourinho gathered with the Arsenal players, his eyes looked around, and finally locked on Giroud.

The first penalty kick is very important.

This needs to give the team a good start, and it also affects the mentality of subsequent free throw players.

The first penalty kick was also full of pressure.

This is a game between the two sides in terms of shooting skills and mentality, so any mistake will lead to a situation where the whole game will be lost.

Giroud hesitated under Mourinho's gaze.

Although his condition is very good, it does not mean that he really has the courage to take the first penalty kick.

The pressure is too much!

Lucky also noticed something strange about Giroud, so he raised his hand and said, "Coach, let me do it!"

Lucky took the initiative to ask for help, but Mourinho waved his hand and interrupted: "You have to punish the last one!"

Immediately, Mourinho looked at Giroud and said sternly: "Hey! Look at me."

Giroud looked up at Mourinho. At this time, Mourinho's eyes were full of encouragement: "Man, we all know how good your penalty kick is. For you to be the first penalty kicker, this It is something that all of us agree that you are more suitable for this role, and we also believe that you can withstand the pressure.”

"You are our No. 9, our top scorer. You will bring us goals, right?"

With Mourinho's encouragement, Giroud's heart also stirred. He took a deep breath, nodded slowly and solemnly: "Boss! I'll do it!"

Bang bang! ! !

Mourinho stretched out his hand and patted Giroud hard on the shoulder. This was an expression of expectation and trust.

"The second penalty taker, Mane."

"Third penalty taker, Eriksen!"

"The fourth penalty kicker, Odegaard!"

"I?"

Odegaard pointed to his nose in astonishment.

He didn't expect that he would get a penalty kick in such an important game.

This is a penalty shootout in the Champions League final.

Mourinho turned to look at Odegaard, his hawk-like eyes piercing the opponent.

"You don't have confidence?"

Odegaard opened his mouth slightly, not knowing how to answer.

It was a bit too sudden after all.

And in such an important game penalty, he really felt too much pressure.

"If you want to be a qualified shooter, you can't always hide under the umbrella of your teammates. Pressure can destroy a person, but it can also make a person successful. It depends on whether you can resist the pressure." Mourinho He said sharply: "If you feel the pressure is too great, I can choose someone else. Now tell me, can I trust you?"

Odegaard's face slowly turned red, he didn't know whether he was nervous or excited.

Soon, he suddenly raised his head and shouted: "Leave it to me, coach!"

Seeing the fighting spirit in Odegaard's eyes, Mourinho flashed a hint of appreciation in his eyes and nodded: "Very good!"

After saying that, Mourinho turned to look at Lucky and said: "You are the last penalty kicker."

Lucky didn't respond and nodded slightly.

At the same time, Bayern Munich on the other side is also ranking penalties.

The first penalty taker, Lewandowski.

Second penalty taker: Gnabry.

The third penalty kicker, Thiago.

Fourth penalty taker: Koeman.

Fifth penalty taker: Muller.

At the same time, the goalkeepers of both sides are also ready.

After it was determined that both sides had completed their preparations, under the leadership of the referee, the players who took the penalty began to move to the center circle of the midfield.

They stand side by side in the center circle, where the goalkeepers of both teams will take the penalty kick.

At this time, the atmosphere in the arena was already oppressive and suffocating.

Some timid fans even closed their eyes tightly, clasped their hands together, and began to chant scriptures and pray in a spirited way to relieve themselves from stress.

If the fans are like this, the pressure on the players will be even greater.

"The game has finally come to this moment, a penalty shootout! The penalty kickers from both sides have already arrived on the court."

Andy Gray was also extremely nervous at this time. He paused for a moment to calm down, and then said: "For Bayern Munich, they were able to equalize the score twice and drag the game into this moment. Their performance has been very good." It’s outstanding.”

"It is precisely because of Bayern Munich's resilience that the suspense of the game remains to this day!"

"And for Arsenal, their seventh crown! Their dynasty will be decided at this moment!"

"Can the Gunners win the seventh trophy of the season and complete their dominance of Europe and the league for two consecutive years?"

At this point, even Andy Gray didn't know how to express his mood at this moment.

Richard on the side saw that his partner was stuck, and immediately answered: "This is definitely a historic moment for Arsenal, and it is also the same for Kai."

"As the captain of Arsenal, his achievements and contributions are the most significant moments in Arsenal's history. There is no doubt that even in history, Kai is the first captain!"

"He has opened up the most glorious moment for Arsenal, and whether they can achieve a dynasty depends on their performance in this penalty shootout."

"We saw Arsenal's goalkeeper Martinez walking towards the goal. This is the national goalkeeper from Argentina. In the national team, he guards the goal for the Pampas Eagles, and in the club, he has become the Gunners' strongest wall."

"Martinez won the Golden Glove Award twice in the league and once in the Champions League during his time at Arsenal. He is one of the best goalkeepers in recent years!"

"But he is facing the national goalkeeper Neuer from Germany! What kind of outstanding performance will these two excellent goalkeepers show?"

Martinez is already standing in front of the goal. He saw Bayern Munich's first penalty taker Lewandowski come to the penalty spot.

Martinez didn't say anything, but his tall body blocked the goal like a wall.

He moved left and right, spreading his arms to interfere with Lewandowski's mentality.

But as the saying goes, there is no coward in front of the 12 yards!

Dare to stand on the penalty spot, which is brave enough for the player himself.

Not to mention Lewandowski, a top center forward.

The mood on the scene suddenly became tense. Lewandowski had already begun to retreat to measure the distance of the run-up, pausing to wait for the referee to blow the whistle.

At this moment, everyone's breathing seemed to stop, and they were all holding their breath to watch.

Beep!

The whistle sounded.

Lewandowski did not hesitate at all, and immediately ran towards the penalty spot.

Martinez also moved left and right for the final interference. After being unable to determine the direction of the opponent's penalty, Martinez suddenly rushed to the right.

But the next second, Lewandowski was on the left side of the penalty.

The ball flew into the goal close to the goal post.

When the ball entered the net, the fans of Bayern Munich cheered loudly.

Wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ——

"Lower left corner! A clean penalty kick. Lewandowski scored the first goal for Bayern Munich!"

After scoring the goal, Lewandowski excitedly punched the ground to celebrate.

And Martinez hit the ground hard to vent his anger.

"The pressure is now on Arsenal. The first player to take the penalty is Giroud!"

"Both centers are leading the charge. They are both the top scorers in the team. Can Giroud score for Arsenal?"

Giroud took the ball from the referee and immediately pressed the ball on the penalty spot.

At this moment, Arsenal fans almost felt suffocated.

They dared not imagine that they would face such a situation after missing the penalty.

Under the camera, Giroud's movements were neat and tidy. After placing the ball, he started to retreat directly, and then froze at the penalty spot, as if he couldn't wait for the penalty kick.

At this time, the referee signaled that the penalty kick could be taken.

Giroud did not hesitate at all and immediately took a run-up.

Neuer also reacted instantly.

Giroud pushed the ball with his arch of his foot, and he hit the middle point of a straight line.

And Neuer was also shocked. He immediately straightened his foot and tried to reach the ball.

"Giroud hit the middle, Neuer reached the ball, and the ball went in!!"

Andy Gray jumped up suddenly.

Although the ball rubbed Neuer's instep, it still bounced into the net.

Andy Gray, an Arsenal fan, also breathed a sigh of relief.

"This ball was too thrilling. No one expected that Giroud would choose a straight line for the first penalty kick. This was a very risky move, but he still managed to deceive Neuer."

"At present, players from both sides have scored goals in succession, and the score is 1:1."

Bayern's second penalty taker is Gnabry.

Before Gnabry's penalty kick, Martinez still did not interfere at all.

This also allowed Gnabry to successfully score the ball.

"Gnabry, easily completed the penalty kick. In this penalty shootout, Bayern Munich's penalty kicks were very stable."

When it was Arsenal's second penalty taker Mane's turn, Mane kicked a lower left corner, but the ball was guessed by Neuer, but Neuer still touched the ball and failed to save it.

Arsenal escaped death twice in a row.

"Arsenal's penalty kicks are not stable enough. Neuer has touched the ball twice in a row, which will put a lot of psychological pressure on the next penalty kicker."

When Bayern Munich's third penalty taker walked to the penalty spot, Martinez finally spoke.

"He just stepped on the penalty spot, and he put the ball too far."

Martinez protested to the referee.

This sentence was also heard by Thiago at the penalty spot, which made Thiago frown.

The referee also listened to Martinez's protest, turned around and checked, and finally showed that there was no problem with Thiago's position.

But even so, Thiago's heart still began to get agitated.

At the same time, he looked at Martinez's shrug and pout, and he was a little angry.

Of course, this scene was not captured by the camera. When the camera screen appeared, the game had already reached the penalty spot.

At this time, Bayern Munich fans saw Thiago had started to run up.

But compared to the previous ones, Thiago's approach distance is longer and his sprint speed is also faster.

This kind of run-up caused a strong sense of uneasiness in the hearts of fans.

And Martinez also waited for the opponent in small steps. At the moment the opponent took a free throw, he flew towards the left without hesitation.

"Thiago's penalty kick, a powerful volley from the left, the ball was saved!!! Martinez!!!"

Andy Gray jumped up from his seat.

Martinez made the save.

The penalty shootout finally ushered in a change, and the first to save the ball was Arsenal, who had not been stable before.

This penalty soaked into the hearts of all gun fans like nectar.

At the same time, the entire Stadium of Light was in an uproar.

Mourinho and others on the sidelines also jumped up suddenly, and they celebrated wildly.

Lucky and others also excitedly waved their fists in celebration.

On the other hand, for Bayern Munich, this ball hit the chest like a heavy hammer. Thiago's mind went blank and he returned to the formation with an almost dull look on his face.

In the slow-motion replay, you can see that Thiago's ball is very powerful, but the angle is not tricky. Therefore, the moment Martinez pounces in the opposite direction, the ball is destined to be saved.

"Thiago missed the penalty. This time the pressure is on Bayern Munich. Neuer must save a penalty kick."

Arsenal's third penalty taker, Eriksen, comes on.

He came to the goal calmly.

Neuer seemed extremely active at this time, constantly moving back and forth in the goal, but Eriksson understood that this was a sign of the opponent's nervousness.

At this time, Bayern Munich has half its foot on the edge of the cliff.

Score a goal calmly!

Eriksen kept cheering himself up, and the fans at the scene fell silent instantly.

With the whistle, Eriksen made a free throw.

Eriksen had a pause before the penalty kick, which caught Neuer off guard. His entire body had moved to the left, and Eriksen pushed to the right.

"Incredibly calm! The Danish midfielder scored another goal for Arsenal. The current penalty score is 3:2! Arsenal leads by one penalty."

Now, the pressure came up instantly.

Bayern Munich fans are already clutching their hearts. They feel breathless and too anxious at this time.

Arsenal fans feel very hopeful.

Bayern Munich's fourth penalty kicker, Koeman.

Martinez repeated his old trick. He walked to the penalty area, picked up the ball and patted it on the ground. When Koeman arrived at the penalty spot, he threw the ball to the right. The meaning was obvious. 'Pick it up yourself'.

Koeman hated it so much that he could only hold his breath and pick up the ball.

At this time, Martinez turned around and clapped his hands and booed. The Arsenal fans at the scene were also extremely cooperative and continued to jeer loudly.

"This guy is so bad!"

"This is psychological interference, well done!"

"Haha! This guy is so pitiful!"

"No penalty! No penalty!"

The ridicule of Arsenal fans began to seriously interfere with Koeman's mentality. After he placed the ball, he found that it was difficult to maintain his calm mentality.

But the referee had already signaled that free throws were allowed, so Koeman had no choice but to bite the bullet and take free throws.

Koeman started to take a run-up. Due to Thiago's mistakes, he did not dare to exert force and instead pursued the angle.

But it was precisely because of this mentality that at the moment when he took the free throw, he saw that Martinez once again made a correct judgment on the direction. His heart trembled, his ankles loosened, and the angle that was meant to hit the lower right corner was also deviated. Some.

"Please!"

After Koeman's free throw, he also felt deeply uncomfortable and prayed in his heart.

But watching the ball fly out against the goal post, Koeman suddenly turned pale.

"Another missed point!! Bayern Munich conceded two goals in a row!!"

Andy Gray and the Arsenal fans are in great spirits.

At this moment, they felt that the championship was close at hand.

Morale also rose suddenly.

Neuer's breathing became heavy, and he knew that the crisis moment had arrived.

Arsenal's fourth penalty kick. If this ball could not be saved, they would completely lose the game.

At this moment, Neuer is under great pressure.

"Come on! Don't be too stressed!"

On the other side, Lucky also patted Odegaard on the shoulder, but he found that the guy's neck was a little cold, and his body was also a little stiff.

"Hey! Relax!"

Lucky frowned and shouted.

But Odegaard did not respond at all, and this scene also made Lucky and the Arsenal players feel a little uncomfortable.

This guy is under too much psychological pressure.

This is also true. Odegaard's head is full of thoughts at this time. As long as he scores this goal, they will be the champion of this Champions League and he will become Arsenal's hero.

But because of this, he was under the greatest pressure.

Odegaard's mind went blank, he mechanically came to the penalty spot and placed the ball in the penalty area.

When he looked up towards the goal, his vision suddenly went dark.

When Odegaard regained consciousness again, he saw Neuer in front of him excitedly waving his arms in celebration.

Odegaard's eyes widened. He tried hard to find the ball in the goal, and finally saw the ball on the billboard behind the baseline.

"I missed the penalty!"

At this moment, Odegaard felt dizzy.

He messed up.

"Odegaard missed a point. The young player's mentality is still too easily disturbed and he cannot withstand the pressure. However, for Arsenal, they still maintained their advantage."

"The current penalty score is still 3:2, Arsenal missed one penalty and Bayern Munich missed two."

"The game also came to the fifth round of the penalty shootout. For Muller, he had to score this goal. At the same time, for Neuer, he also had to save Arsenal's fifth penalty kick. Only Only in this way can they hope to enter the stage of sudden death."

Mueller's expression was extremely solemn.

Compared with his usual funny appearance, Mueller was also frowning at this time.

At this moment, no matter how funny the person is, he must become serious. He needs to be responsible for this free throw, and at the same time, he must be responsible for the team.

As Muller walks out, Martinez steps towards the ball again.

But this time, Muller did not sit still and waited. Instead, he accelerated his pace to the penalty spot, controlled the ball, and immediately protested to the referee.

The referee was also dissatisfied with the previous scene of Martinez throwing the ball out, so he stopped Martinez's actions and asked him to return to the goal line.

Martinez failed to interfere, so he had no choice but to run back.

At this time, Muller had completed the measurement of the approach and lowered his head the whole time.

The moment the whistle sounded, Muller suddenly started and immediately volleyed directly towards the ball.

The ball flew accurately into the blind spot on the left.

This time, Martinez failed to predict the direction of the opponent's shot.

Bayern Munich keeps hope alive.

"Huh~~~~~~~"

Andy Gray took a long breath.

Until now, his heart felt a little painful and he was nervous.

If he is like this, what should Arsenal fans do?

But he still has to complete his job as a commentator.

"Now the penalty shootout has come to the final step, one goal will determine the outcome!"

"Arsenal's fifth penalty taker is their captain, Kai!"

"Kai has once again become a key player for Arsenal. Can he bear the burden as before and bring victory to the Gunners and bring them a third Champions League trophy?"

The scene was still silent.

At this moment, the eyes of the scene and even the whole world were focused on Lucai.

The current penalty score is 3:3.

The last goal of the penalty shootout, as long as Lucky scores this penalty, Arsenal will win.

All the Arsenal players have stood up, and they are looking side by side towards the court and towards Lucky.

Martinez knelt on the ground on the sidelines, his head lowered, not daring to look at the goal.

The Arsenal fans at the scene were even more timid, fearing that any movement would disturb Lucky, but soon they began to cheer again to counter the boos from the Bayern Munich fans.

The whole stadium was extremely noisy.

Lucky came to the penalty spot step by step.

He gently placed the ball at the penalty spot, stood up and straightened up, tightening the captain's armband on his arm.

He looked directly at Neuer opposite.

The two looked at each other, and Noelle couldn't help but frown and cursed secretly.

All he saw in Lucai's eyes was 'confidence'.

"I'll kick the left!"

Before Lucky retreated, he said something to Neuer.

But it was this sentence that made Neuer's mentality explode.

Neuer's body became visibly stiff, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes.

The situation was quite good before, but because of one sentence, my mentality completely collapsed.

At this time, Neuer was in a state of confusion.

The referee did not give Neuer any chance to prepare.

Beep! !

The whistle sounded.

Lucky took a decisive step forward.

The wind whistled in his ears, and Lucai ran wantonly, with his right foot like a bow, and the ball like an arrow, killing him with one strike!

Lower left corner!

It’s really the lower left corner!

Neuer failed to make any moves throughout the game.

The ball went in!

"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!!!!"

"Goal!! Goal! Goal!!!"

"Arsenal are the champions!!! They won the seventh crown of the season! They are the champions!!"

The on-site commentator roared suddenly.

At this moment, the Arsenal fans in the audience also burst into violent cheers.

The Arsenal people on the field could no longer keep their composure.

They celebrated, cheered and shouted fiercely.

At this moment, all they had in their hearts was ecstasy.

On this summer night, they accomplished a historic moment.

They ushered in the most glorious moment.

Oh my God!

They are seven-time champions!

They won twelve championships in two seasons!

There is no doubt that they dominate all of Europe!

The Gunners dynasty is officially established!

Brilliant fireworks burst out wantonly in the sky, embellishing the night sky with great beauty.

At this moment, the sky of Lisbon and the sky of London are connected.

Some are just the cheers of Arsenal fans. They have crossed the English Channel, they have crossed two countries, they have overcome many histories and hardships, and finally ushered in this moment.

This is the most glorious moment for the Gunners and Arsenal.

At this moment, they are not only standing on top of Europe, they are also the kings of the world!

The lights adorn the silver cup noodles.

The Big Ears Cup was lifted high at the Stadium of Light in Lisbon.

Those exciting shouts surrounded my ears, and they seemed to come from a lot of history.

Through the fog of history!

Overcame many obstacles!

The efforts of generations of gunmen have passed through!

At this moment, they finally stood at the top!

After peeling away the blinding veil, the first thing to be greeted was the passionate voice.

'go ahead! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ——’

Immediately afterwards, feedback from tens of thousands of people was intertwined, with responses of faith and strong expectations.

‘Gunner! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ——’

——The whole book is finished!
