Chapter 406 Record Maker: Finally breaking the ancient epic record!

Chapter 406 Record Maker: Finally breaking the ancient epic record!

Arsenal reversed Bayern 4:2 at the Emirates Stadium and took the lead in reaching the 2017-2018 Champions League final.

One day later, although Real Madrid lost to Roma 2:4 as a guest, they won the first round 5:2 and eliminated their opponents with a total score of 7:6 to join Arsenal in the final.

This game also marks the third consecutive season that the two teams have met in the Champions League final.

The two teams also tied the record shared by AC Milan and Juventus of reaching the Champions League finals for three consecutive seasons.

In last season's Champions League final, Arsenal has become the first team to successfully defend the Champions League since its reform, but in front of them are Ajax and Bayern Munich, who won three consecutive championships before the Champions League reform.

Further up is Real Madrid, the first year of the Champions League, winning the Champions League for five consecutive years!

Martin yearns for such a record.

However, there are still three games to play before the Champions League final.

Two league matches and an FA Cup final.

Of course, the league has become unimportant due to winning the championship early.

According to Wenger's plan, he will send a large number of substitutes and youth team players in the last two rounds.

Including several post-99s and post-00s generations.

Nketiah was born in 1999, Smith Rowe was born in 2000 and Saka was born in 2001.

The one who is loved by die-hard Gunners fans is undoubtedly Saka, who was born in 2001. His left foot skills are very delicate and his speed is very fast. He is the kind of young player who has a good combination of man and ball.

In time, he will grow into the backbone of the team.

As a veteran, Martin is quite familiar with Arsenal's three young players from youth training, especially Saka, who even became the main right winger of the England national team at a young age.

The development of Nketiah and Smith Rowe seems to have stalled.

Saturday, 4pm, Emirates Stadium.

Seats are full.

This game is also Arsenal's last home game in the 2017-2018 season.

According to Premier League practice, after this game, the Premier League will award Arsenal a silver trophy symbolizing the league championship.

Arsenal, which is sitting at home, has sent a large number of substitutes and youth team players. Burnley, who is facing the match, has no hope of relegation in the European war. They are also preparing for next season and have sent many substitutes and young players.

In this context, Arsenal, which has stronger substitutes and youth team players, will have a greater advantage.

At the end of the game, the scoreboard showed 5:0.

Martin passed and shot, tying his 57 goals last season in terms of goals.

In other words, just scoring one goal in the final game of the final round can create a new Premier League single-season scoring record.

If he can score a hat-trick, he will tie the single-season record of 60 goals set by Everton legend Dixie Dean in the old League One era.

If you go all out, not to mention a hat trick, four big wins are possible.

But in the final round, neither Huddersfield, who successfully avoided relegation, nor Arsenal, who won the championship in advance, will send their main players.

In addition, in the eyes of many people, Martin is not the kind of player who likes to collect statistics.

Therefore, many voices after the game were centered around Martin completing his self-breakthrough and breaking Dixie Dean's old League One single-season record of 60 goals.

"aoaoaooaoaooooo——"

The atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium was frenzied, with the fans erupting in waves of cheers.

In addition to winning the game, the next step is largely the league championship award ceremony.

Although it was said that they won the league championship early and early, seeing their beloved team receive the trophy that symbolizes the championship made me feel even more excited.

League championship for three consecutive seasons!

Since the founding of the Premier League, such an achievement has only occurred during Manchester United's tenure under Ferguson.

The on-site director gave a close-up shot to Martin, who only came on as a substitute at the end of the second half of this game. Just like in the past, the close-up shot was pushed to the face.

That handsome face once again appeared in front of fans all over the world watching the live broadcast of the game.

Every fan who loves Arsenal loves him deeply.

Arsenal's current achievements are entirely due to Martin.

You must know that the last time Martin won the Premier League title before joining Arsenal was back in the 2003-2004 season.

They have won a lot of FA Cup titles, but they have never touched the League Cup or League title, let alone the Champions League title, which symbolizes the highest level in the world?

The most incredible thing is to win seven crowns for two consecutive years.

According to the overall performance this season, there will be a high probability of winning seven championships for three consecutive years!

Arsenal fans are particularly excited when they think of this, and they can't help but think about various honors in the future.

Martin, who led Arsenal to the league title early, took the initiative to approach the three young players who all had appearances in this game.

He hugged Saka, Smith Rowe and Nketiah respectively.

Especially Saka, who set a record for Arsenal's youngest appearance in the league.

At 16 years and 243 days old, he surpassed Wilshere's age of 16 years and 256 days, setting his own record as the youngest player in team history.

However, looking at the entire Premier League, such a record cannot yet enter the top five, so it can only barely enter the top ten.

Martin put his arm around Saka's neck, touched his hair with his palms and said: "The performance was good, but a little nervous. But you are still young now. Wait two years before you can train your body. You must have a strong body to be able to stand in the Premier League." .”

"Uh-huh!"

Saka was obviously flattered and nodded almost instinctively.

Reporters in the mixed zone kept pressing their shutters.

The three youth team players who had just made their Premier League debut were obviously a little shy and seemed at a loss in front of reporters' flashlights.

Captain Martin hugged Saka again in front of reporters and said: "Remember this little guy, he will definitely become a world-class superstar in the future."

"Oh?"

The reporter with a long gun and a short cannon in his hand, the boss with an 'o' mouth.

Martin smiled and said, "You'll find out later."

Soon, reporters realized that Martin’s words were likely to come true.

The reason is very simple. The young player named 'Saka' is fast, can handle the ball quickly at his feet, and has a very good combination of man and ball. He has the shadow of Messi when he was young.

If he develops smoothly in the future, and he comes from Arsenal's youth training, he will definitely get many opportunities.

He may not grow up to become a world-class superstar as Martin said.

An emotion called envy was evident on the faces of Nketiah and Smith Rowe.

After Martin dismissed the reporters, he rubbed the heads of Smith Rowe and Nketiah: "Little guys, work hard, try to stay in the first team, and fight together when the time comes."

"Will you still be at Arsenal?"

Nketiah, who is about to turn 19 in Masan, is obviously more mature, he blurted out.

"what?"

Such a question also made Martin stunned. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and said with a smile: "No one can predict the future. As long as we grow up quickly enough, maybe we can compete in the Premier League and compete in the Champions League together next season." !”

"I will definitely work hard!"

Nketiah responded instinctively.

Both Smith Rowe and Saka acted a little reserved, and Martin patted their shoulders respectively to show encouragement: "Come on."

Saka looked at Martin's walking back and murmured to himself in a voice that only he could hear clearly: "Will I really become a world-class superstar in the future?"

About two seconds later, his voice changed from doubt to determination: "I will definitely become a world-class superstar!"

※※※※※

Martin walked over to his teammates to celebrate the win with a hug.

The staff of the Premier League are working hard to build the podium that will host the league championship award ceremony.

Arsenal staff held championship commemorative T-shirts with Arabic numerals [5] and [16] printed on them that had been prepared in advance.

5 means winning the fifth Premier League title, and 16 means 16 top league titles.

The atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium became increasingly high as the Premier League staff set up a temporary podium, and the overwhelming cheers grew louder and louder.

Fans without tickets also gathered in the outer square and cheered for the players in the stadium with loud shouts.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please..."

"All champion members of the Premier League in the 2017-2018 season!"

About ten minutes later, the impassioned voice of the on-site announcer Smith was transmitted to the entire stadium through the radio.

The most enthusiastic moment in the audience was undoubtedly Martin holding up the Lion Crown trophy, which symbolizes the Premier League championship, and its official name is the Barclays Premier League Champions Trophy. At the same time, Queen's classic song "We Are the Champions" also sounded on the live radio!

……

Although Arsenal fans have long been mentally prepared to win the championship, they will still be ecstatic when they see the players holding up the trophy that symbolizes the championship, and they will dance with joy as the team wins another league championship.

2017-2018赛季英超结束37轮，阿森纳以109分继续刷新了英超夺冠积分纪录，以及世界足坛38轮联赛的世界夺冠积分纪录。

There is only one final round of the league left, and the specific European qualification seats and relegation for next season have basically been settled.

Arsenal, Manchester City and Manchester United, who won this round, have all qualified for the Champions League group stage next season. The final suspense lies with Tottenham and Liverpool.

Tottenham scored 74 points and Liverpool scored 72 points.

In the last round, Liverpool faced Brighton at home, who were relegated early and had no hope of European competition.

Tottenham are also at home, facing Leicester City, who are also hopeless in the European war but have mentioned relegation.

Liverpool's goal difference is five more than Tottenham's.

So there is still a certain amount of suspense in the final round.

Once Tottenham fail to defeat Leicester City at the rented new Wembley Stadium, Liverpool can get the last place in the Champions League group stage next season as long as they win.

Of course, if Liverpool defeats Atletico Madrid in the Europa League final, they can also get a spot to directly participate in the Champions League group stage next season.

Considering that the Europa League final is still six days away from the final round of the Premier League, Liverpool does not need to make a choice and can completely take care of both ends.

The relegation situation also became clear before the final round.

Southampton is four points ahead of second-to-last West Bromwich Albion, which also means deputy captains Stoke City and West Bromwich Albion are relegated early.

16th-placed Huddersfield is four points ahead of 18th-placed Swansea, which means that the last relegation spot will be between Swansea and Southampton.

However, Southampton has a goal difference of nine more than Swansea. As long as Southampton does not defeat Manchester City and Swansea beats Stoke City in the last round, Southampton is close to 100% safe from relegation.

A week passed quickly, and the 2017-2018 Premier League season ushered in the final game.

There are only five games in the high-profile league.

Liverpool VS Brighton, Tottenham VS Leicester City

Southampton VS Manchester City, Swansea VS Stoke City

Huddersfield vs Arsenal.

Two games are about Champions League seats and two games are about relegation.

Arsenal's visit to Huddersfield makes it possible for Martin to create a new personal single-season scoring record.

At four o'clock in the afternoon on a sunny Saturday, the 2017th round of the 2018-38 Premier League season kicked off at the same time.

Arsenal, who need to stay in the FA Cup final, still only sent part of the main team in the final game of the league as a guest at Huddersfield, still mainly semi-main players, substitutes and youth team players.

With such a starting lineup, there is naturally no tacit understanding.

The main thing is to rely on Martin's super connection and organizational ability to combine the incompatible midfield, frontcourt and midfielder.

In the 19th minute of the game, Saka, who set Arsenal's youngest appearance record in the league as a substitute in the last round of the league, received a pass from Martin on the right flank of the attack and cut inside, causing a foul on the defensive player.

The referee Atkin whistled for a foul and gave Arsenal a very poorly positioned free kick.

Martin was in very good condition and hit a precise curve ball into the upper right corner of the goal.

0:1

The home team goes first and the away team goes last.

"Beautiful direct free kick!"

"Martin scored his 58th goal in the Premier League this season!"

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun said impassionedly: "He broke his personal Premier League single-season record of 57 goals set last season. If he completes a hat trick in the remaining game time, he will tie the Everton legend Dixie Dee. Well, the old English League One single-season record of 1927 goals in the 1928-60 season! If the big four..."

The home team Huddersfield will certainly not let Martin set the record easily.

The restarted game was gradual and steady, and the focus on Martin was strengthened.

Martin, who is still two short of the old League One single-season scoring record set by Dixie Dean, is not particularly eager to score.

The mission of the last round is to serve the whole team. Unless the opportunity is particularly good, it will not be done deliberately.

It's just like that a lot of the time.

Intentionally planting flowers but not blooming, unintentionally planting willows and willows make a shade.

In the 38th minute, Arsenal got a corner kick opportunity.

Martin originally acted as a tactical attraction. Unexpectedly, De Ligt's header caused the home team's goalkeeper Sler to take the ball away. Defender Jorgensen made a mistake and kicked the ball into the back of his teammate Meunier. The deflected football was just right. Landed at Martin's feet.

Out of body's conditioned reflex, Martin raised his foot and struck.

Sler, who was disturbed by the realization, had no way to deal with the close-range follow-up shot.

0:2

Martin scored twice.

Raising his personal single-season scoring record to 59 goals.

Dixie Dean's 60 was just one ball away.

I thought I would have to wait until the second half, but before the end of the first half, Monreal received a through ball from Ramsey and hit the open arm of Harder Jonay.

The referee Atkinson saw clearly and awarded a penalty kick decisively.

So Martin took advantage of the penalty kick to complete his hat trick.

"The ball is in!"

"The 60th goal in a single season!"

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun shouted passionately: "Incredible goal efficiency! I believe... the fans watching the live game are looking forward to Martin's 61st goal just like me!"

In the second half, the game changed sides and Martin wanted to complete his fourth victory.

It’s a pity that we have reached the stage where the flowers planted with intention do not bloom...

Never got a comfortable shot.

The game reached the 60th minute, just when Martin agreed to be replaced by head coach Wenger.

The feeling of scoring a goal is here again.

According to the plan, substitutions will be made when the ball is dead.

Martin, who received the pass from Ramsey, used his superb foot skills to pass three people in the middle. He played a one-two with Cavani who came on the bench at the front of the penalty area, and then hit the right edge of the top of the penalty area. A sudden cold arrow succeeded.

Increase the number of goals scored in a single season to 61!

"Martin!"

"Martin!!"

"Martin!!!"

Arsenal fans traveling with the team chanted hysterically.

Arsenal fans and Martin fans in front of countless televisions went crazy.

Martin, who scored the goal, was also particularly crazy. He used a sliding kneel to express his 61st goal in a single season!

"The ball is in!"

"Goal 61!"

"Dixie Dean's single-season goalscoring record in England's top flight has finally been rewritten!"

"Martin! Record maker!"

PP sports commentator Zhan Jun shouted eloquently.

Xhaka then replaced Martin and allowed him to accept the chants of Arsenal's expeditionary force.

……

At Anfield, Liverpool beat Brighton 4-0.

Tottenham, however, narrowly defeated Leicester City 5:4 at the new Wembley Stadium with Harry Kane's winning goal.

The two teams won their opponents respectively, which also meant that Tottenham finally finished fourth in the league, and Liverpool had to settle for fifth.

Liverpool fans are still very optimistic, with the Europa League final coming up in five days.

As long as they defeat Atletico Madrid, they can also participate in the Champions League group stage next season.

The two league games, disguised as a relegation battle but nothing to watch, lacked passion.

Although Southampton lost to Manchester City 1:2 at home, Swansea did not win by a huge margin in the home league, which means that the third relegated team is...Swansea.

The 2017-2018 Premier League season has concluded all 38 rounds.

Arsenal has 112 points, Manchester City has 89 points, Manchester United has 81 points, Tottenham has 77 points, Liverpool has 75 points, and Chelsea has 70 points.

Martin leads the scorer list and assists list with 61 goals and 33 assists respectively!
