Chapter 1,132: The World of Young People
After hearing Kim Tiger's inappropriate comment, Scholes looked at the court again.
Those two strong men must have gone up to fight...
Less than two minutes after Jones came on the court, he shoveled Aubameyang, who was dribbling the ball forward at high speed, out of the baseline. Because it was a head-on tackle, there was no foul and Arsenal only got a throw-in.
It took Aubameyang a long time to get up from the ground. He looked at Jones bitterly. Jones didn't care, still holding his head high and looking at the Arsenal fast horse in front of him.
After the throw-in, Arsenal's offense struck again. This time it was not the left wing, but a one-stop dribble from right back Bellerin. Mendy rushed to fight with him, and Bellerin kicked the ball out. Sanchez received the ball and took a step into the penalty area. He saw Xhaka asking for the ball outside the penalty area. He knocked the ball back to Zhaka. Card.
The moment Xhaka caught the ball, he felt like he was knocked away by a tank and fell hard!
The referee stopped the game!
At this time, Xhaka struggled to get up from the ground to see who had hit him.
It's Nainggolan!
Xhaka actually trembled when he saw the Belgian looking at him like a ferocious god.
Ozil's direct free kick slid out, and Arsenal wasted a good opportunity to score.
Not long after, Xhaka couldn't bear it anymore. After he was knocked away by Nainggolan, he landed and twisted his ankle slightly. The feeling was not obvious just now, but now the pain is getting more and more painful, and I can no longer continue to compete.
Arsenal's team doctors rushed him off the field for treatment. But it's not a big problem, it doesn't hurt the muscles and bones, and it will be fine after ten days and a half. But in the Europa League final ten days later, Xhaka will definitely not be able to play...
Wenger frowned and asked Wilshere to come on as a substitute.
The game has now reached the 72nd minute, and the two sides are still in a stalemate.
Since Nainggolan and Jones came on, Arsenal's offense has been completely disrupted. The two of them followed Jintiger's arrangements perfectly and smashed Arsenal's offense to pieces!
Especially after Xhaka was injured and came off the field, Arsenal's players began to be a little timid and did not dare to attack recklessly on the field. They don't want injuries in this game to affect the Europa League final.
As a result, Arsenal's momentum is getting weaker and weaker, and Manchester United is starting to show signs of looking up.
Kim Tiger struck while the iron was hot. He replaced the right forward Alli and replaced him with Mbappe, allowing him to continue to attack Arsenal's defense.
After Mbappe came on the field, the situation on the field changed a lot.
Because Arsenal's offense continues, their formation is relatively high, and Manchester United only has Sane who is fast and dribbling, so it is not difficult for Arsenal to defend. Since Mbappe came on the scene, Manchester United has rediscovered the feeling of flying on both wings.
In terms of small movements at his feet, Mbappe may not be as good as Sane, but in terms of explosive power and absolute speed, Mbappe is one of the best in the entire international football world today!
Not long after he came on the field, he made a breakthrough with the ball from the wing and almost scored Arsenal's goal. When the ball hit the side netting, the Arsenal fans in the stands thought the ball had been scored...
In this case, Wenger also made substitution adjustments. He replaced Ozil and Sanchez and replaced them with Cazorla and Welbeck. The intention of this substitution was obvious.
The professor is starting to focus on the Europa League.
After Ozil and Sanchez came off the field, Arsenal's offensive strength suddenly dropped by two levels!
Cazorla has excellent skills, but he has been affected by injuries and his condition is not as good as before. It is precisely for this reason that Arsenal let him leave on a free transfer.
And Manchester United's old player Welbeck is even more talented. His condition depends on fate...
After these two people came on the court, the pressure on Manchester United's defense suddenly became much less stressful.
A few minutes later, Kanter confidently said to Nainggolan: "Man, it's enough for me to stay behind and defend. You go up and help the attack."
Nainggolan nodded, ran forward and threw himself into the attack.
Manchester United's offense is getting stronger and stronger, and the goal is getting closer and closer.
In the 82nd minute of the game, Nainggolan collided with Ramsey again.
This time it was a 50-50 goal. Nainggolan and Ramsey rushed to the ball at the same time, trying to launch an attack.
In the end, Nainggolan became stronger and squeezed past Ramsey to get the ball.
Nainggolan staggered forward two steps, shook off Ramsey, and then passed the ball to Mbappe on the right.
Mbappe, who had just come on the field, was in good physical condition. After receiving the ball, he directly led the ball forward and passed the ball past Kolasinac who was guarding him.
Facing the Arsenal captain Per Mertesacker who was rushing forward, he once again made an easy change of direction, and Per Mertesacker was knocked to the ground by Mbappe.
"Mbappe broke through two Arsenal defenders in a row! He went solo!"
"Calm down and push into the far corner! The ball is in!"
"In the 82nd minute of the game, Manchester United tenaciously equalized the score!"
"Mbappe's wonderful passing shot just now showed a world-class level!"
"At the beginning of this game, when Arsenal led 2-0, we thought Manchester United's condition had declined, but we didn't expect that they evened the score consecutively!"
"What makes us even more emotional is that Jin Taige sent almost a full substitute lineup in this game! Such a lineup can evenly compete with Arsenal. Manchester United is really unstoppable!"
At this time, the Manchester United players did not seem too happy about this goal, especially the scorer Mbappe, who seemed very casual.
Speaking of which, Mbappe has scored 40 goals this season, and there are many important goals in the Champions League. Even in the Premier League, Mbappe has many outstanding performances such as buzzer beaters and hat tricks against the big 6, helping the team to defeat the enemy many times. Therefore, an insignificant game like today, such an easy goal, is already trivial to Mbappe and cannot interest him at all.
At this time, in the Arsenal penalty area, Cech pulled Mertesacker up from the ground: "Old man, are you okay?"
Mertesacker shook his head. He looked at Mbappe's back and couldn't help but sigh: "Now the world is dominated by young people, and I am really old. At this moment, I really feel that my decision to retire is extremely correct..."
Looking at Mertesacker's expression, Cech couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Yes, young talents are emerging in large numbers now, and players of my generation have gradually faded out of the international football stage. After next season, I should also consider retirement arrangements...
