The battle reignited in the second half, with the two sides changing sides. Real Madrid seemed to have changed teams and showed a strong desire to attack from the beginning.
Arsenal initially defended and counterattacked, but soon became more aggressive and gradually lost their defense and only focused on attack.
The fans were happy to see it, but Wenger had a big headache...
If possible, he would rather the players be more cowardly and keep the 1-2 score until the end of the game. If they want to make a fuss, they can go back to the Emirates Stadium and try again.
But it was clear that these guys were off the hook and not following his instructions.
"Modric passed back with his heel. Rosicky received the ball and passed the ball over the top. Lin Yun volleyed!! Unfortunately, it was just a little bit wide!"
"Look at Real Madrid's counterattack...Isco made a clever breakthrough and crossed Ozil. Well, Ozil was tackled to the ground by Arteta and went off for treatment. Real Madrid got a free kick...Cristiano Ronaldo's The free kick went over the bar again..."
"Cazorla broke through from the wing and it was time to cross...cut inside and hit the goal! Casillas was very focused and saved the ball..."
"The game is very fast-paced and both sides play aggressive football!"
"The game came to the 65th minute. Flamini passed from the wing and Lin Yun headed the ball over the baseline. Real Madrid's goal kick.
Ancelotti was the first to make substitution adjustments, Isco came off and Bale came on. "
"For Arsenal, Bale is also an old rival..."
Bale high-fived Isco and quickly entered the court.
Looking at his excited look, Wenger instinctively felt a little uneasy.
He turned to look at his bench, wanting to make corresponding adjustments, but looking over and over, he couldn't come up with any reliable plan.
The players on the bench held their heads high, waiting to be flipped, and ended up feeling lonely while waiting.
After the substitution was completed, Casillas took the goal kick.
The ball flew halfway across the court and landed on the right side of Arsenal's penalty area.
Sagna kept observing the ball while retreating and wanted to head the ball to clear the ball, but he obviously overestimated his jumping ability.
The ball went over the top and the football fell behind him.
Benzema ran diagonally from the side. The moment the football bounced off the ground, he dunked the ball with the inside of his right foot, before the football was about to pop out of the boundary.
Sagna quickly turned around and went up to press, but Benzema had already made a standard center forward leaning action, firmly protecting the ball in front of him and blocking Sagna behind him.
Mertesacker came out of the penalty area and tried to break the football from Benzema's feet with Sagna.
Real Madrid's Carvajal also moved forward quickly, ready to respond.
Benzema glanced out of the corner of his eye and immediately moved his right foot towards the midfield twice, turning his whole body in a half circle with his left foot as the axis.
Sagna thought he was about to break through and quickly stretched out his foot to intercept. Unexpectedly, Benzema suddenly swept the ball with his left foot and passed it to Carvajal.
Mertesacker had a premonition that something was not going to happen and quickly turned back to defend the penalty area, but it was too late.
Carvajal sent the ball straight into the penalty area.
Lin Yun had already retreated to the midfield, and he could clearly see that at the moment Carvajal passed through, Bell suddenly penetrated from the other side of the penalty area like a bolt of lightning.
He instinctively opened his mouth, wanting to remind his defenders, but knowing it was useless, he closed his mouth helplessly.
Just leave it to fate...
Gibbs chased after Bell, but was left behind in just a second or two.
Seeing that Bell was about to get the ball, he quickly reached out to pull him away, regardless of the fact that he was in the penalty area.
Bell felt the resistance behind him and rushed forward, suddenly breaking away from Gibbs' pull.
Get the ball, one shot!
Cristiano Ronaldo on the other side also rushed forward, and the two ghosts knocked on the door!
Szczesny quickly attacked and faced Bell.
Bell raised his head and glanced casually, then suddenly raised his foot and volleyed with his left foot.
The football almost flew past Szczesny's waist and penetrated the goal hard.
The entire Bernabeu suddenly fell silent the moment he took the ball, and suddenly erupted the moment the football scored.
"The goal is in! 2-2!
In the 69th minute of the game, Gareth Bale, who came on as a substitute, transformed into the Monkey King, stepped on the colorful auspicious clouds, and pierced Arsenal's goal with one stick.
The golden monkey rises with great strength, and the jade moon clarifies thousands of miles! "
"GOAL!!!! Bale's first touch of the ball after coming on helped Real Madrid tie the score! This is a victory of speed! Gibbs saw through his intentions from the beginning, but still failed to stop him from catching the ball , shoot, score!”
Bell roared excitedly and rushed to the sidelines. He remembered something halfway through, turned around, and ran backwards to the sidelines while roaring at Carvajal who was assisting!
Carvajal ran up to grab Bale, and the two of them raised their arms and shouted at the Real Madrid fans in the front rows.
Ronaldo also rushed forward, hugged Bale from behind, and accepted the cheers of the fans with him.
However, he is actually somewhat dissatisfied with the attitude of the Bernabeu fans.
In a game this season when Real Madrid beat Rayo Vallecano 5-0, the Bernabeu fans actually booed him because he chose to shoot by himself at the last moment when Real Madrid lost to Sevilla in the last round. Pass the ball to Morata who is in a better position.
As a forward, he doesn't see anything wrong with wanting to rely on his own goals to help his team win.
Being booed like this? The president said he couldn't do it to Sister Li.
But what makes him even more incomprehensible now is that even though he was in a better position just now, Bell didn't pass the ball to him, but why didn't Bell get booed?
Sure enough, the result determines everything...
When the camera turned, Ancelotti in the sideline command area was applauding vigorously, but he still had a sullen face. It was obvious that 2-2 was not the score he wanted.
In the stands, nearly 70,000 Real Madrid fans clenched their fists and raised their arms, hugging each other and jumping, with incredible ecstasy on their faces.
Lin Yun walked to the center circle and waited for the kick-off.
I have to admit, it's really strong.
Compared with last season, when Arsenal encountered various league champions at every turn, Arsenal's journey to the Champions League this season was relatively smooth. Apart from Bayern, they encountered almost no strong opponents. This gave him the illusion that Arsenal was in the Champions League. The difficulty has been reduced.
He was able to lead the team through last season's level of difficulty. This season, with the help of Modric, things have been going smoothly since the knockout rounds. I originally thought that reaching the finals would be enough, but I didn't expect that Real Madrid suddenly broke out in the second half and allowed him to take first place. A sense of crisis arose for the first time.
There is a saying that no matter who has had his experience, it is difficult not to regard himself as the protagonist of the world and the son of the plane. Only at this moment does he have the feeling of "it turns out that the world is not all around I turn" realism.
"But this is what makes it interesting..."
In terms of the score, the two sides are currently just a draw. In terms of the situation, the two sides can be considered back and forth. Arsenal is not without the ability to fight back, but Lin Yun still feels this way, naturally because after Bale scored, he He clearly felt the tremendous pressure coming from the other side.
After the game continued, Real Madrid's offensive became even more fierce.
In the 70th minute, Di Maria stopped the ball with his chest at the back point and shot a half-volley with his left foot 5 meters in front of the goal.
Two minutes later, Carvajal counterattacked from the right and moved the ball to the left in a wide range. Ronaldo's left-footed volley from the edge of the penalty area was blocked by Mertesacker.
In the 75th minute, Xabi Alonso stole the ball in the middle and passed a long pass. Bell once again stepped on the somersault cloud, got rid of Gibbs and took the ball from the left.
Arteta quickly returned to defense, made a decisive tackle before he was about to step into the penalty area, and finally shoveled the ball out of the boundary.
The referee only awarded a common foul, which caused dissatisfaction among Real Madrid fans and players.
Brother Tazi already has a yellow card. If he gets another yellow card, Real Madrid's chance of reversal will undoubtedly increase significantly.
Not only Bell, but also Casillas rushed out and asked the referee for an explanation. Not only did he fail to sway the referee's decision, but he almost got a topaz card for himself because of his excitement.
Arsenal fans praised the referee's wisdom and prowess, but they never expected that just one minute later, they wanted to hang this guy up and light a sky lantern.
Real Madrid's free kick hit the wall, the ball was obtained by Flamini, and Arsenal took the opportunity to counterattack.
They did not pass the ball rudely forward, but patiently played a ground attack.
Of course, it's not slow.
Between three passes and two passes, the football was pushed into the frontcourt.
Modric ran out of the receiving space through a wide range of runs, and as soon as the football came to his feet, he suddenly passed the ball diagonally with the outside of his instep.
The football flew over the defender's head and landed in front of the goal.
Lin Yun moved forward knowingly when he passed the ball, and in the helpless eyes of Casillas, he kicked the ball into the net.
However, as soon as the football entered the goal, the referee blew his whistle.
Offside...
"... Modric passed the ball with the outside of his instep, Lin Yun flew over and shot, and the ball went in!!! Arsenal once again... huh? Offside? Is this ball offside?"
"Lin's goal was ruled invalid because it was offside... Judging from the replay, this penalty is a bit far-fetched. I don't know if his hair was offside or his shadow was offside..."
Lin Yun actually didn't know if he was offside, but he certainly couldn't admit it just like that, and immediately went to the referee, "I need an explanation."
The referee had a headache and pointed at the linesman as if to blame him, "I think he sees it more clearly than we do, doesn't he?"
Lin Yun was amused, "Okay, I guess you have a point."
Although the ball was ruled invalid, Arsenal began to improve and Real Madrid's offense began to slow down.
Wenger finally changed people.
Cazor pulls down and Ramsay steps up.
Exit Gibbs, enter Monreal.
"Arsenal made two substitutions. Cazorla, who performed mediocrely, was replaced by Ramsey, while Gibbs, who struggled in front of Bale, was replaced by Monreal. An attacker The player is a defensive player, and Wenger is obviously not satisfied with the team's performance in both offense and defense in the second half..."
Monreal transferred from La Liga, and he thought he knew the style of La Liga fairly well. He was a little bit dissatisfied with not being able to start in this game. After he came on the field, he held back his breath and wanted to express himself, and ran very actively.
In the 82nd minute, Flamini successfully stole the ball, and Lin Yun and Modric in front were immediately surrounded by heavy troops.
Ramsey was actively looking for opportunities, but like a headless fly, Flamini didn't even know how to pass it to him.
Fortunately, Monreal rushed up at this time, and Flamini quickly divided the ball to the side, just in time to avoid Alonso's tackle.
Monreal was obviously a bit over the top and rushed forward with the ball. As a result, Coentrao successfully intercepted the ball before he reached the midfield line.
Lin Yun, who came back to meet him, was lonely.
Bell felt happy now.
Coentrao passed the ball to his feet with a direct pass, but Monreal, who was supposed to be guarding him closely, only rushed back now. By the time he got there, the daylilies were already cold.
Fortunately, Wenger was equipped with a double defensive midfielder. Arteta was ready to help fill in when Monreal assisted and rushed over as soon as Bell got the ball.
Bell originally planned to take advantage of his speed and eat Brother Tazi alive in one face-to-face encounter, but Brother Tazi was a thief and did not give him a chance.
Benzema immediately came over to support, and after a one-two, Bell finally dribbled the ball into the penalty area.
Mertesacker was ready, and Ronaldo came in from the other side.
He failed to get rid of Koscielny's defense this time, but Bell, who was so stubborn, passed the ball at this time.
This ball was given in advance, and Ronaldo took full advantage of his speed. Koscielny had no choice but to pull hard...
Ronaldo fell to the ground.
"Beep!"
"Ha~" All the Real Madrid fans in the audience were happy.
"Oh~~" Arsenal's bench and coaching bench wailed.
Ancelotti made a fist with his right hand and hit it hard on his left palm.
very good! that's all!
Koscielny made a begging gesture to the referee.
Penalty kicks are unavoidable. He just hopes that they don't throw a red card in his face.
The referee was very generous and gave him a yellow card.
Wenger, who was sitting on the sidelines with his hands on his hips and was speechless, felt a little better.
"...Bale and Benzema did a wall-to-wall combination, entered the penalty area, and passed to Cristiano! Single...huh? He was pulled to the ground by Koscielny. Penalty! Penalty! The last few minutes of the game , the referee awarded a penalty kick!
Koscielny was given a yellow card, which is the best result..."
"In the 84th minute of the game, Cristiano Ronaldo won a penalty kick for Real Madrid! Will this be a buzzer-beater?!"
Ronaldo stood up, picked up the football and placed it on the penalty spot.
All eyes were on him, and he loved this feeling.
Unlike Arsenal, which has already won the championship in advance, Real Madrid is still fighting on two fronts. It is difficult, but for Ronaldo, it is the best script.
Defeated Barcelona and Messi in the league and won the La Liga championship;
Eliminated Arsenal and Lin Yun in the Champions League, advanced to the final, and helped Real Madrid win the tenth Champions League championship in team history!
Of course, it would be best to overtake Lin Yun in the scorer list. That would be a truly perfect season!
The whistle blew, Ronaldo took a deep breath, took a run, and shot.
Szczesny immediately jumped forward.
The direction was right, but unfortunately the timing was too late, or Ronaldo's shot was too fast.
The football flew into the upper left corner of the goal, 3-2...
