Chapter 451: European King of Kings 3 consecutive victories, feel the terrifying dominance of Arsena

Chapter 451: European King of Kings for three consecutive years, feel the terrifying dominance of Arsenal!

"aoaoaooaooooooo——"

Deafening roars rang out in Tallinn and Rieckla stadiums in Estonia.

Arsenal fans, local fans and neutral fans all unleashed their passion at this time and celebrated Arsenal's fantastic two-goal lead.

Liverpool fans sighed repeatedly, obviously losing confidence in the game.

The Liverpool players on the field were almost the same and looked at each other.

The Red Arrows didn't even touch the ball, and the score was already two goals behind.

How to play such a game?
Goalkeeper Alisson pursed his lips and put his hands on his hips, shaking his head and sighing. Looking at the Arsenal players celebrating the goal, his eyes lost the strong desire to win before the game.

The same goes for other Liverpool players, each of whom seemed to have guessed the final outcome.

The game restarted. Although Liverpool, which was trailing by two goals in the first five minutes, gained a kick-off advantage, they did not show a strong desire to win. Passing and receiving felt like passing for the sake of passing.

At this moment, the Liverpool fans in the audience played a crucial role, singing "You'll Never Walk Alone".

The Liverpool players on the field were like people who were lost in the dark and saw the light, and each of them had a goal.

Fight for the fans!

Football matches are not only about winning for yourself, but also about fighting for the fans in the audience who spare no effort to cheer.

The game had only started less than ten minutes, and there was still enough time to equalize the score.

After the Red Arrows' running-in last season, their overall coordination ability has increased significantly. Liverpool players who have gradually regained their fighting spirit have consciously increased their running coverage.

Firmino assisted, and Mane and Salah created opportunities on both sides.

Especially Salah on the right, who first got ample training in Fiorentina and Roma, and then shined under the coaching of Klopp last season, becoming the Premier League silver boot, second only to Martin, who scores many goals.

He is very threatening when taking the ball in the right rib of the attack, and can even threaten goalkeeper Petr Cech to guard the goal.

Martin quickly made fine adjustments to his command of the defense. His accurate predictions caused Liverpool, which was gaining momentum, to encounter great resistance on the offensive end.

Van Dijk's one-on-one defense and overall assisting defense capabilities are also getting better and better. Many Arsenal fans in the audience and in front of the TV know football, so they feel relieved.

Arteta, who was standing in the coach's technical area on the left side of the broadcast screen, was a little ashamed, but he soon realized that luck is also a manifestation of ability. With the recommendation of his mentor Wenger, it was logical to take up the position of Arsenal head coach.

Besides, when Wenger retires, someone has to take over, right?
Anyone can accept it, so why not give it to your own people?
right?

After thinking about this clearly, Arteta looked at the game in a better mood.

The team was leading by two goals, and Liverpool's offense was not threatening. He knew that winning the game was a sure thing.

As Martin joined Arsenal's defensive system, Liverpool's offense gradually became a little constipated, and there was no shot that could threaten Cech's goal.

Arsenal, who were leading the score, did not force an attack to further expand the score. Instead, they consumed the game time through reasonable passes, and also consumed the physical fitness and patience of the Liverpool players, working hard for goals that were produced gradually.

Time passes quickly in a high-level competition, and it’s half an hour in the blink of an eye.

The score shown on the scoreboard is still UEFA Champions League champion Arsenal leading UEFA Champions League Liverpool 1:0.

In terms of ball control, shots, and hits, Arsenal led by Martin is higher, but Liverpool, which is two goals behind, is still high-spirited and will not give up until they tie the score.

Klopp has great ambitions for the new season.

The Red Arrows' offensive system has taken shape and their defensive system is relatively stable. They believe they are fully capable of challenging the European hegemon Arsenal in the new season.

This game is a touchstone for Klopp.

Except for the two goals conceded at the beginning, he believes that they are not much weaker than Arsenal in terms of technical and tactical aspects and player strength, which means that they can become the most powerful contender for championships in various competitions in the new 2018-2019 season... …

one!

It wasn't until the 36th minute of the game that Klopp was brought back to reality by Martin's goal.

In the fanatical atmosphere of the scene, Martin once again picked up the ball in the middle of the court and suddenly accelerated. He used his superb foot skills to pass Naby Keita, Henderson, Matip and Joe Gomez, and faced Alli's attack. Sen kicked the ball close to the ground, and the football that was close to the ground could not reach the crotch of Alisson, who had his legs closed, and passed under the goal line, hitting the snow-white net...

"Goooooooooooooal——"

The commentators in the live commentary box and the Riela Stadium were affected by the fanatical atmosphere, and they all made impassioned and elongated voices.

Martin did not celebrate the goal. He hugged his teammates as usual and celebrated the three-goal lead.

The Liverpool players, who were still high-spirited before losing the ball, instantly looked like eggplants beaten by frost.

This goal also means that the overall situation of this game has been decided.

Although Liverpool's ancestors once had the glory of pulling back three goals in nine minutes from three goals down, their opponent Arsenal is not a team that takes a big lead lightly. On the contrary, it is a team that is very good at taking advantage. Converts into goals for the team.

Therefore, Martin's goal directly knocked out the spirit of the high-spirited Liverpool players.

"damn it."

Klopp was very unhappy when he saw the obvious changes in the mental outlook of the players on the field.

He was not a head coach who gave up easily. There was still halftime, so he thought he might be able to save something.

Arsenal, with a three-goal lead, still maintained a high level of concentration on the game and were also looking for opportunities to see if they could kill the game.

Considering that the opponent is Liverpool, who is good at comebacks, the bigger the gap, the better and safer it is.

Martin, who was leading the attack, just wanted to give Liverpool some face, so there was no most deadly attack.

After all, the Liverpool players on the field did not show a strong desire to attack and seemed more like coping.

Until the end of the first half, the scoreboard still showed Arsenal leading Liverpool 3:0.

After a fifteen-minute intermission, players from both sides returned to the court one after another to prepare for the forty-five minutes of the second half.

Before the change of sides, Liverpool took the lead in making personnel adjustments.

Veteran Milner replaced Naby Keita, who performed poorly in the first half.

Arsenal remained on hold.

At the beginning of the second half, Liverpool did take advantage of the kick-off to launch two effective attacks, but they did not directly threaten Cech's goal.

On the other hand, Arsenal's counterattack was impressive.

If it weren't for Milner and Matip's timely fouls, as well as Alisson's brave performance, we would have been at least four goals behind.

Feeling the huge pressure from conceding the ball, Liverpool's defensive players chose to protect themselves wisely, not seeking merit but seeking no fault.

As a result, players on the offensive end cannot receive effective support, and the threat to Cech guarding the goal is greatly reduced.

Arteta also made appropriate personnel adjustments to prepare for the Battle of Heavenly Kings Mountain at the Emirates Stadium in the first round of the 2018-2019 Premier League season.

Martin's job for the rest of the second half was simple, control the rhythm, direct the defense, and consume the game time reasonably until the two short and one long full-time whistle sounded.

However, unpredictable things often happen in football matches.

In the 86th minute, Salah used his superb skills to get past the defense of Van Dijk and Xhaka in the right rib of the attack. He succeeded in shooting a low shot into the far corner and scored a face-saving goal.

Liverpool, whose morale had improved, tried to increase the high pressure to see if they could score another goal in one go when the game restarted. If we can score two goals in a short time, we can tie the score without conceding a goal in the remaining game time!
But how could Arsenal, led by Martin, be defeated so easily?
A patient pass that drains away the ambition of Liverpool's players.

In the subsequent game time, Martin consciously increased the frequency of forward passes, and replaced defense with offense by strengthening the offensive approach, forcing Liverpool players to focus on defense.

Time often passes very quickly in high-level matches, and in a blink of an eye, it’s injury time.

Both Klopp and the Liverpool players know that the overall situation has been decided.

The score of 3:1 remained unchanged until the end of the game.

"competition is over!"

"competition is over!!"

"Arsenal defeated Liverpool 3:1 in Tallinn and Rieckla Stadium in Estonia and won the European Super Cup for three consecutive years! This... is also their sixth championship of the year! At the end of the year, there is also a Club World Cup championship in the United Arab Emirates. Wait."

Central 5 commentator He Wei said impassionedly: "Congratulations to Martin again here! Congratulations to Arsenal! They still have absolute dominance over European football! I believe this will still be the case in the new 2018-2019 season! At only 22 years old Martin will continue to lead Arsenal to dominate the entire football world!”

"aoaoaoooooooooo——"

Huge hysterical chants erupted from Arsenal fans in Tallinn, Estonia, and at the Rieckla Stadium as the team once again became the king of Europe.

Of course, they have not forgotten who led Arsenal to such a terrifying achievement.

Captain Martin!

The familiar and catchy "Martin Song" in the Arsenal fan circle rang out in the stadium auditorium again, and the momentum was endless, one wave after another.

Coupled with the Mexican waves played by the fans, the unique atmosphere of the football stadium is presented to fans all over the world.

UEFA staff began to regularly set up temporary podiums and championship display areas.

The Arsenal players who won the game hugged each other to celebrate, and then comforted the Liverpool players who lost.

Arsenal head coach Arteta was delighted and walked towards the bearded Klopp in a happy mood.

Klopp caught Arteta smiling from the corner of his eye, and the corners of his mouth twitched. He could tell what the other person was doing at a glance.

Isn't it just wearing a comfort mask to show off winning the game again?
Thinking of this, he envied Arteta very much.

At the end of his career, he can realize his dreams at the club level, and at the beginning of his coaching career, he has players like Martin on his side. As long as he doesn't take the initiative, the championship is almost within reach.

In the UEFA Super Cup that just ended, Klopp didn't feel like he lost at the tactical level.

The loss was entirely due to Martin's personal ability being too strong, which was simply a dimensionality reduction blow.

But as the saying goes, reach out and don't hit the smiling person. Faced with Arteta's kindness, he needed to respond to some extent. He patted the opponent on the shoulder and said first: "Your players are very good. I am optimistic about your future."

After that, he went directly to the field to comfort his own players without giving the other party a chance to speak.

"???"

Arteta looked at Klopp's back and said in his heart: I haven't spoken yet?
The superiority that swept through his body had nowhere to vent, and he sighed.

The reporters in the mixed zone all tacitly pointed their cameras at Martin.

The recognized king of football in the new era really deserves his reputation!

He can still lead Arsenal to the championship on his own.

The key is that Martin, whose identity and status have greatly increased now, remains as humble as ever. As long as it doesn't involve the team's tactics, locker room situation and family privacy, he knows everything and talks about it.

It is precisely because of this that it also has a very good impression in the minds of reporters who rely on football news.

……

UEFA staff were very efficient and set up the podium and championship display area near the center facing the main stand in less than ten minutes.

As the announcer informed the audience that the 2018 European Super Cup awards ceremony was about to begin, the atmosphere in the entire stadium became feverish again.

Although Arsenal fans have experienced a large number of championships in recent years, no one has ever disliked the championship.

The more the merrier.

The first thing that started was the presenters headed by UEFA President Ceferin presenting commemorative medals to the referee team on stage, followed by the losing Liverpool team, and finally Arsenal who won the game.

Amidst the huge cheers from the audience, Martin, who took the symbolic championship trophy from Ceferin, walked to the C position in the championship display area in three steps and two steps, and held it high.

"Arsenal fans and friends who are still waiting in front of the live broadcast, are you ready?"

At the same time, PP sports commentator Zhan Jun raised his voice impassionedly: "Arsenal! They are the champions!!"

……

This night is pleasant for the vast majority of Arsenal fans, but there have been too many championships won in recent years, and the ecstasy of the past cannot last all night without sleep.

The vast majority of Arsenal fans slept soundly.

Because they know that Martin is still on the team and the championships will continue one after another.

The next morning, the Arsenal team flew back to London to prepare for the first round of the 2018-2019 Premier League season.

Although the first round of the game was at home against Manchester City, the rival for the new season's Premier League title,... Arteta still gave the players a day off and waited until the next afternoon to return to Colney Ranger Base for recovery training.

I don’t know if the Premier League did this deliberately, but Arsenal was very strong in the first two rounds of the new season.

Manchester City and Chelsea!

The first two games before the international break in September are relatively easy to deal with, namely West Ham and newly promoted Cardiff.

But...the first and second rounds attracted the attention of the world.

They will face Manchester City at home and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

Time flies and we arrive at the first round of the 2018-2019 Premier League season.

Arsenal VS Manchester City, as the most interesting focus game of the first round, is not placed in the opening game, but the last game of the first round.

The opening match is Manchester United VS Leicester City.

The two teams fought hard for ninety minutes, and the home team won 2:1.

In almost all other games, the strong team wins and the weak team loses, and the difference in strength is a small handshake and a draw.

At 5 pm local time on Sunday, it is the last league game in the first round of the new Premier League season.

The two teams played against each other in the Community Shield before the start of this season, and this game is still fresh in the memory of many fans.

Manchester City took advantage of Martin's absence to score three goals. Unexpectedly, Martin came on as a substitute at the end of the first half, causing a sudden change in the situation, completing the feat of chasing four from three.

For this focus battle, Manchester City coach Guardiola and the players have great confidence.

It’s just that the score shown on the scoreboard at the end of the game was completely unable to match their pre-game rhetoric.

5:1
Martin had 3 shots and 1 pass, leading Arsenal to the top of the standings with a huge victory at the start, and also topped the scorer's list with three goals.
