After the referee blows the whistle to start the game.
The fans at White Hart Lane were singing and dancing, and they seemed to have begun to celebrate the victory in advance.
The commentators also praised Boas' tactics.
The camera showed Villas-Boas on the sidelines.
"Boas has obviously found a way to deal with Arsenal, five defenders plus three midfielders, coupled with super-fast forwards like Bale and Defoe, two counterattacks, two goals! And now After Tottenham takes the lead, they can retreat more confidently and boldly in the backcourt to look for opportunities to counterattack!"
Andy Gray shouted from the commentary box.
In the stands near the stadium, Tottenham fans collectively shouted at the Arsenal players: "Sissies, we fucked you twice in the back!"
The sound is so loud.
So much so that many broadcast agencies had no time to silence it.
In many families watching the game, mothers hurriedly covered their children's ears.
But there is no way.
On the football field, sometimes swearing is unavoidable.
Such shouts caused collective cheers from Tottenham fans in the audience.
but.
The next second, they had to shut up.
Yeluo received the ball when he was still forty meters away from the goal.
Whether in the center or on the wing, there are Arsenal players running.
But Ye Luo took a step forward and fired a powerful volley from about thirty-eight meters away from the goal!
"Ye Luo shot directly!"
The commentators roared in surprise.
Amidst the "sissy" taunts.
The football flew straight in the air like a cannonball, with almost no spin floating left and right in the air.
A shot from such a distance would not normally be considered a threat.
So when Yello shot, the team building of Tottenham fans continued.
They didn't feel worried.
It wasn't until the ball was flying in the air that the sound became much quieter.
Bang!
When the football hit the crossbar hard.
All sounds stopped.
Ye Luo shook his head slightly, not regretting that his shot hit the crossbar.
He turned around, facing the direction of the stands, raised his right hand, raised his index finger, and put it to his mouth.
"Shut up, bastards!"
Ye Luo made this move unceremoniously towards the Tottenham fans.
Of course.
He was greeted with shrill boos.
But Ye Luo doesn't care.
He doesn't necessarily have anything against Tottenham, but he's captain of Arsenal now.
People always have to do things that suit their identity.
"Ye Luo! Danger!!!" The commentator on Tottenham Radio exclaimed, and he breathed a huge sigh of relief after seeing the ball blocked by the crossbar.
"Ye Hengliang!!! Ahhhhh!!!" Your commentator on Gunners Radio holds his head in his hands, feeling much more regretful than Ye Luo on the court!
"A long shot close to 40 meters!! This ball speed, this strength, this angle!! It's just a little bit close!! There is nothing Lloris can do about this ball anyway!"
"At the beginning of the second half, Yello almost helped Arsenal get a goal back! They created a killing opportunity at the beginning of the second half, and this is actually Arsenal's most threatening attack so far!"
"Arsenal seemed to have changed a bit in the second half, and their performance was completely different from the first half. Maybe it was something that happened in the dressing room at halftime, but we may never know what Arsenal changed for this game. What happened in the room?"
The locker room is the most mysterious place for a team.
Anything that happens in the locker room usually ends in the locker room.
Even if there is a conflict, it will not be allowed to be revealed.
Players who reveal locker room secrets will mostly be ostracized by other players in the locker room.
The commentators were speculating about what happened in the Arsenal locker room. At the same time, they were also regretting that Yello's shocking long-range shot was blocked by the crossbar.
If this goal is scored.
It's enough to be ranked among the best in the selection of "Best Long Shot of the Year".
White Hart Lane was silent for several seconds.
When I saw the ball hit the crossbar.
The hearts of many Tottenham fans seemed to have stopped beating at this moment.
Many people had cold sweat streaming down their backs.
The pride on his face before turned into horror.
The rest of your life! !
Many people forgot to continue to boo and curse in response to Ye Luo's provocation.
So when Yello turned around to celebrate with his teammates, many Tottenham fans clapped their thighs in annoyance.
Damn it!
He was tricked!
However, Tottenham fans also know that it is not too late to make amends.
After the game restarted, as long as Yello took the ball, the entire White Hart Lane booed so sharply that the eardrums of many reporters in the media box trembled, and many people had to open their mouths to alleviate the huge noise. The discomfort of catcalling.
This is true even for the onlookers in the stands.
You can imagine how sharp and high the decibel level was when the boos heard by the players on the court surrounded by stands.
But Ye Luo behaved as usual.
Perhaps the Tottenham fans at White Hart Lane feel that the atmosphere they have created at this moment is enough to scare all the players.
But this does not include Ye Luo.
It's not like Ye Luo has never seen any big-name players.
Camp Nou, Bernabeu, Allianz Stadium, San Siro
Which one is not higher than White Hart Lane?
Ye Luo was there to take whatever he wanted.
Therefore, the boos from Tottenham fans are basically ineffective against Ye Luo.
This is just Tottenham fans venting their dissatisfaction - what are you crazy about, you are still two goals behind! Just hitting the ball on the crossbar is so crazy. Hitting the crossbar does not count as a goal. You are still lagging behind!
If the previous boos were to vent dissatisfaction, the next boos were a sign of anxiety in response to stress - the same boos could express different emotions.
"Yeluo cut into the penalty area and passed the ball? No! It was a shot!! GOOOOOOOOAL!!!"
Accompanied by a loud roar from the narrator.
Yelo's fried balls in the penalty area passed between Vertonghen and Dawson, and then directly pushed the ball!
At this moment, Yelo seemed to be a Stoke master. He found a unique route among the dense crowd. The football was stuck to the ground and drilled out from the gap between the players' legs. Waiting When Lloris found out, the football had already hit the post with a clang.
Unlike the previous shot that hit the crossbar and bounced off, Ye Luo's push shot hit the inside edge of the post and bounced into the goal! !
"The ball is in! The ball is in! Beautiful!! Yello helps Arsenal get a goal back!"
"Yeluo's sudden breakthrough changed the rhythm of the game. Vertonghen and Dawson closed the door too slowly. Yeluo got between them and then pushed a clever kick!"
"Now Arsenal are only one goal behind! Yello has opened his goal account! Mr. Scorer will probably not be satisfied with just scoring one goal!"
"Yeluo finally started to work hard, but his breakthrough was not without warning. Before that, Arsenal's players almost turned Tottenham's defense upside down with their flexible movements. In Tottenham's When the defense was in chaos, Yelo seized the opportunity, completed the breakthrough and shot and finally scored! Beautiful!! This is the perfect organic combination of the team's overall and individual abilities!"
After scoring the goal, Yelo did not celebrate wantonly, but rushed directly into the goal. When goalkeeper Lloris bent down to pick up the ball, he snatched the ball away from Lloris. Lloris was unhappy. He was just about to find trouble with Yello, but found that Yello had already run far away - even Bale, the fastest player in the Tottenham team, might not be able to catch up with Yello, let alone Lloris.
The French national team is frustrated.
He could only watch helplessly as Arsenal's No. 10 ran back to the center circle holding the ball, and pressed the ball to the kick-off point.
Ye Luo placed the ball on the kick-off point and clapped his hands vigorously, signaling his teammates to come back quickly and not waste time.
In this game, they are still lagging behind!
Tottenham fans were also a little panicked at this time.
The mentality of being two goals ahead is completely different from being one goal ahead.
When you're two goals ahead, there's this mentality of "even if they score, we're still ahead."
But being one goal ahead is different.
On the football field, the situation of the game changes rapidly, and the opponent may score an equalizer in the next moment.
With a one-goal lead, the security is too low.
For Tottenham fans, they cannot go off the field directly to help the team, so their way to help the team is to make their voices heard as much as possible.
There was a huge cheer when Spurs had the ball.
When the Arsenal players got the ball, they booed extremely sharply.
Because of the current situation, Arsenal has far more possession of the ball than Tottenham.
So Tottenham fans had few opportunities to cheer, and most of them booed.
And if you want to boo loudly, you have to use all your strength. Not all Tottenham fans are sopranos, so many fans don't even know their voices are hoarse when they boo.
As the shrillness of the boos decreases, the boos sound less intimidating than they should be.
Sounds like in Yelo.
Such booing.
It's like a cry of despair.
Because this sound sounded, it meant that his team had the vast majority of the advantage.
It means Arsenal is launching a fierce attack! !
The game scene is indeed the same.
But when Arsenal began to reflect on their own mentality, examine the opponent's strength, and keep in mind the opponent's threatening offensive routines.
Arsenal's burst of offensive strength almost completely suppressed Tottenham.
After the first goal, Arsenal completely took over the game.
Wherever they played, they had an advantage and completely suppressed their opponents.
Villas-Boas stood on the sidelines with a frown, and in the end he decided to hold on!
Tottenham are still one goal ahead of Arsenal. As long as they can hold on to this lead, Tottenham will still win!
So Villas quickly made substitutions.
Defoe was replaced by midfielder Sigurdsson.
Tottenham played a 541 formation, leaving Bell in front to conduct harassing attacks.
Arsenal also know what their opponents are planning.
After Tottenham completely shrunk back.
Arsenal's offensive routine has been adjusted accordingly.
To break through the dense defense, there are only two methods: long shots and high balls.
So Arsenal have two methods taking turns.
In the 60th minute of the game, Ye Luo hit a long shot. The football hit Dawson's foot and was refracted, slightly missing the baseline.
In the 62nd minute of the game, Yelo once again tried to take a long shot, which caused Tottenham's players to make a conditional launch-style blocking action. However, this time Yelo was just a fake move. He picked the ball to the wing. Then directly enter the restricted area at high speed! !
Cazorla on the wing understood it and passed the ball directly to the back point! !
Ye Luo jumped forward and hit the goal with his header.
Lloris did what he could with the ball, blocking the near corner, reaching out and blocking the ball into the small penalty area.
The football just fell to Wilshere's feet in the small penalty area.
Of course Wilshere was not polite. He directly raised his foot and kicked the ball towards the goal.
Facing such a big goal.
It's much more difficult to miss Wilshere's kick than to kick it in.
So the ball flew into the goal smoothly.
"GOOOOOOOOOAL!!! Wilshere!!!"
"Two to two!! Arsenal equalized the score! Lloris made a save from Yello's header, but no one could stop Wilshere's follow-up shot!"
"Less than twenty minutes into the second half! Arsenal scored two goals!! Tottenham's two-goal lead was wiped out! They are going to fall short!!"
to the shouts of the narrator.
Wilshere, who inherited the No. 14 jersey of Henry the Great, opened his arms and wanted to pounce on Yello to celebrate the goal.
According to Premier League standards, this goal can be regarded as an assist from Yello.
In fact, it is somewhat controversial whether a goal scored after a shot is saved by the goalkeeper is counted as an assist from the previous shooter.
FIFA originally only stipulated that "the last passer before the goal counts as an assist."
The definition of passing is also unclear: for example, how to judge whether it is a pass or a shot, what are the boundaries and standards, and if you encounter other players in the passing (shooting) route and then refract and then score, this is still considered No assists?
So the rules are rules, but there are many "own interpretations" of the rules.
The rules are not very clear and many leagues have their own interpretations.
For example, "Does a goal scored after a shot is saved count as an assist?"
In the Bundesliga, assists are not counted.
In the Premier League, it is counted as an assist.
Of course.
Later, FIFA also improved the rules in response to this point, and later this situation was uniformly counted as an assist.
But it is still the stage where everyone understands the rules.
Therefore, whether it counts as an assist or not is a matter of opinion.
In fact, there were only two rules of football at the beginning: 1. Players other than the goalkeeper cannot touch the ball with their hands (this rule can be ignored before the separation of rugby and football); 2. You cannot maliciously attack the opponent.
In the beginning, there wasn't even an offside rule.
Maybe it's because the rules are simple enough.
So football is the most popular ball game in the world.
However, with the development of professional football leagues, the rules have become more and more detailed.
But even so.
Among the mainstream ball sports, the rules of football are also the simplest - basically except for the offside rule, which requires special lessons, the other rules are easy to understand.
When Wilshere was about to find Yello to celebrate his goal.
He turned his head but could not see Ye Luo.
When he looked at the goal again, Ye Luo had already rushed into the goal.
But this time Lloris was already prepared. He held the ball in his arms first, and Ye Luo went to grab it without any politeness.
The two started tugging and tugging.
Lloris controls the ball with both hands, lowering his center of gravity,
At this moment, the two of them looked like basketball players competing on the basketball court.
However, Loris was crushed by Ye Luo in terms of strength and confrontation, and this was not really playing basketball. There were any rules that violated the cylinder, so Ye Luo was very rude and wanted to pick up Loris. Then the attacker took the ball away from Lloris.
It just equalized the score. In Yelo's opinion, the goal was not worth celebrating.
But at this time other Tottenham players quit.
How could they watch Loris being bullied by Ye Luo.
So Vertonghen was the first to make a move. He rushed up and pushed Ye Luo away: "You'd better be polite!"
Ye Luo waved his hand and pushed him back: "I'm not polite, what can you do?"
Suddenly!
There were loud boos in the stands.
The other players were suddenly attracted as if by a magnet.
Wilshere also gave up celebrating and joined the battle group directly.
Then came other Arsenal players and Tottenham players, and the two sides suddenly huddled together.
Mutual Zaun output.
This is a derby!
Without conflict, how can it be called a derby?
"Oh oh oh oh! Yello, Lloris and Vertonghen had a loud conflict. Players from both sides quickly joined the penalty area, and the conflict quickly expanded!"
"Yelo wanted to serve quickly, and Lloris stopped him, but it was obvious that Lloris overestimated his own strength and was bullied by Yello. As a result, Vertonghen wanted to stand up for his teammates, which detonated the conflict. .”
"Ye Luo seems not satisfied with equalizing the score, he is not satisfied with a draw! Although Arsenal equalized when two goals behind, it is actually very remarkable!"
The referee blew his whistle and rushed forward.
Sharp whistles accompanied by shrill catcalls
After the referee intervened, the players on both sides did not take action, but used words.
Both sides separated after a meal of output.
Although Ye Luo failed to complete the kick-off quickly, the conflict time will be counted into the injury time. On the contrary, the time wasted by taking the initiative to celebrate will most likely not be made up.
So Arsenal still made money.
The premise is of course that there will be no red cards - but everyone is in conflict, but they are all sensible and know what actions will result in red cards.
really.
After the conflict subsided, the referee gave Yello, Vertonghen and Lloris each a yellow card.
This matter has been settled.
But the commentator was very excited: "This is a North London derby!"
The derby is indeed different.
After a conflict.
Players from both sides became more aggressive.
Both sides are playing football with passion.
The North London derby is considered one of the most intense derbies in England.
Conflicts, red and yellow cards and the like are not uncommon.
The opposition between the two teams is very sharp.
Players from both sides dislike each other.
Just a spark can ignite the anger in everyone's hearts.
And this conflict obviously acted as a trigger.
In the next game.
Fouls involving big moves from both sides were common.
The referee also had to play cards frequently.
The close combat between the two sides made the game very intense and anxious.
Maybe in the eyes of outsiders.
This score is unacceptable for Tottenham.
Because this is not only their home court, but they once led by two goals.
Having a two-goal lead equalized is something that many people cannot accept.
For Arsenal, this score should be acceptable.
They were once two goals behind, and it was not easy to tie.
But the actual situation is that neither side accepts this score.
Spurs had been two goals ahead and there was no reason for them to accept a draw after a two-goal lead at home.
Arsenal will never think that they only need a draw to explain to their supporters.
Therefore, both sides are still trying to launch threatening attacks.
In the 83rd minute of the game, Tottenham got a chance to counterattack. Bell was brought down by Mertesacker at the front of the penalty area, and Tottenham got a free kick in the frontcourt.
The free kick taken by Bell himself hit the crossbar and went out of the baseline.
All Arsenal fans were frightened into a cold sweat by this free kick.
But soon.
Cazorla responded with a long shot.
At that time, Yelo dribbled the ball to the inverted triangle pass near the baseline. Cazorla followed up and fired furiously. The football flew close to the ground towards the goal, slightly missing the left post! !
Both sides had chances, but seemed a little short of scoring.
Many people thought that this game might end in a draw.
But in the 89th minute of the game.
Arsenal launched an offensive attack.
The football quickly passed to the frontcourt. Wilshere advanced with the ball and passed it to Cazorla. Cazorla directly passed the ball to find Yelo who was diagonally crossing into the ribs of the penalty area from the wing!
There are defensive players around Ye Luo.
Kyle Walker, Sigurdsson, Gallas and others were by his side, but the moment Cazorla passed the ball, Yelo suddenly started!
He started too fast.
Even Kyle Walker, who is also very fast and explosive, was left behind by him.
He got the ball before everyone else, and then took it into the penalty area without any further ado!
"Ye Luo!!!"
In the commentary box, almost all the commentators stood up at this moment and leaned forward to look at the court, because at this moment, only Vertonghen and Dawson were left in front of Yello.
In fact, including Lloris, Tottenham still have three players.
Three against one, logically speaking, is very safe.
But you must know that they are facing Ye Luo! !
The boos at White Hart Lane became even louder.
Tottenham fans also seem to know what the situation in front of them means.
Belgian center back Vertonghen is very strong and experienced.
He is considered one of the top central defenders in the Premier League.
Dawson next to him is a veteran who has been selected for the England team and has considerable experience.
As for Lloris.
He was Lyon's main goalkeeper last season.
In the last 16 rounds of the Champions League last season, he was stunned by Yello's shot.
Of course he also has a certain understanding of Ye Luo.
All three Tottenham defenders now have all their attention on Yelo.
Vertonghen crashed into Yello without hesitation.
He raised his hands and hit with his body.
If it is another player who brings the ball in now.
He really didn't dare to do this.
Because if there is physical contact, what if the opponent screams and rolls on the ground for seven and a half weeks, and the referee decisively awards a penalty kick?
But if it is Ye Luo
Vertonghen is really not afraid of the opponent doing this - as an opponent, he must study his main defensive target before the game.
Vertonghen knows.
Ye Luo is not that kind of person.
Even if there is physical contact, he will not fall to the ground easily.
really.
But when Vertonghen collided, Yelo chose to spread his hands, maintain balance, protect the football, and then confront Vertonghen.
Everything in front.
Vertonghen's judgment was very accurate.
Ye Luo did not scream, nor did he roll over on the ground clutching his ankles.
But what happened next was something Vertonghen didn’t expect at all.
His impact failed to change Ye Luo's center of gravity, and the opponent didn't even shake much.
Instead, he was bounced away and fell to the ground on his back!
Of course.
Vertonghen's impact was not ineffective. Although he misjudged what happened after the impact, at least he bought time for his teammates.
Dawson seized the opportunity and rushed forward immediately.
He stretched out his foot and almost poked the ball away!
crucial moment.
Yeluo took a step and directly separated the football from Dawson. Then he used his body to suppress Dawson. Religion hooked the ball into the small penalty area! !
But by the time he turned around, Lloris was already charging forward and he dived on the ball so quickly that it looked like he was almost successful.
At this moment, Ye Luo used his incredible agility to poke hard with the tip of his left foot!
Loris knew what his opponent was going to do when he saw Ye Luo poking his toes forward.
He immediately changed from pounce to block, stretched out his hands, opened his feet, and pressed his whole body on the turf in front of the goal to expand his defensive range as much as possible.
The football hit his thigh and bounced out!
All Tottenham fans almost cheered for Lloris's successful defense at this moment.
But Ye Luoke didn't give up.
When he saw the football bounce to the right side of his body, he turned around and chased the football.
As soon as he turned around, midfielder Parker had already rushed over and raised his right leg.
When Ye Luo saw this scene, he was furious!
The meat is already at your mouth, how can you let him fly away!
He also became fierce and swept his legs directly towards the football, trying to kick the ball towards the goal! !
Parker, who used his big foot to make a clearance, successfully kicked the football.
But the football was not kicked away, but stayed in place!
boom!
The two played football almost at the same time!
Parker felt like he was kicking a rock instead of playing football!
The football doesn't move at all!
Parker himself flew forward.
Ye Luo's sweeping kick kept the ball within his control! !
But it was too late to get up and shoot.
The person on the opposite side was almost back. By the time he finished getting up and shooting again, the day lily was already cold!
So he simply used his right foot to rush out like a torpedo and headed the ball towards the goal with his head! !
Loris's second reaction was also a bit incredible.
His well-developed thigh muscles exerted force, causing him to bounce up from the ground with a roar, completing his second save.
But it's a pity.
He was still one step late.
before his hands pounced.
The football has passed through his fingertips!
Sandro, the left back who had retreated to the goal line, could not use his hands.
So he could only make a flying tackle to try to block the goal. Unfortunately, if he were the goalkeeper, he would have had a chance to get the ball out with his hands, but the control range of his feet was still too small.
The football scratched his spikes and rolled into the goal line!
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh."
Almost all the commentators, no matter what their native language is, seem to have only this sentence left now, because the process is so fast, with twists and turns in a short period of time, which is dizzying. I don’t know what to say, so I have to say: Oooh exclaimed.
Some words in the language of Homo sapiens are almost universal. After all, everyone is the same species and there is no reproductive isolation.
But soon.
Commentators from all over the world began to explain this goal in their own languages.
"Definite kill!! Definite kill!! In the 89th minute of the game! Yello scored twice! He scored the decisive goal for Arsenal!! He kicked Tottenham into the abyss!"
"Beautiful goal!! Tottenham had many chances to clear the ball, but they failed to win the power confrontation!"
"Tottenham's entire defense failed to stop Yello! This is a goal full of personal heroism! Yello dominated the game again!!"
On the sidelines, Arsenal's coaching bench and bench were all boiling.
This time Yello did not rush in to grab the ball, and the Tottenham players did not hold on to the football.
Lloris stared blankly at the football spinning behind the goal he was guarding, with a look of helplessness on his face.
The faces of Tottenham's players showed confusion and frustration.
They were leading by two goals for a while, but in the end, they couldn't kill it!
Such a blow caused an avalanche of morale among Tottenham players.
Even if the game resumes, they may not be able to launch any effective offense.
After scoring, Yello dove into the players on the bench, and the Arsenal players cheered and celebrated together.
After the game resumes.
As expected, Tottenham failed to launch any threatening offensive.
Tottenham's players did not have the courage to continue attacking, but instead became a little angry.
The 92nd minute of the game.
Parker maliciously tackled Cazorla, triggering a conflict between players from both sides.
During the conflict, captain Ye Luo was shown a yellow card in order to stand up for his teammates. Two yellows turned into one red and he was sent off.
This made the Arsenal TV commentator quite dissatisfied.
"It was Parker who should have been sent off!"
But unfortunately, Parker was not sent off. Instead, his teammate Vertonghen and Yello accumulated two yellow cards and were sent off.
The game is now.
Most of the players on both sides almost had yellow cards on their backs: Tottenham received 8 yellow cards, and Arsenal also received 7 yellow cards.
Plus two red cards.
This game is full of red and yellow cards.
However, apart from conflicts and fouls, the score of this game did not change much.
The fourth minute of injury time.
The referee blew the whistle to end the game!
Arsenal won their first north London derby of the season.
