The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 281
281 Shall We Stand Still?
After Gilberto Silva, there was an open space in front of Gourcuff.
Gilberto Silva is a very slow defensive midfielder and he is a barrier in front of the Arsenal defence. Now that he has been eliminated by Gourcuff, the front of the Arsenal box is empty.
Gourcuff sped forward and stared fixedly at Arsenal’s goal.
The Arsenal players didn’t understand Gourcuff at all, so he didn’t rush forward at the first moment. Instead, he moved towards the middle and stared at Huntelaar in the restricted area.
Although Huntelaar has been in a terrible state since the start of the season, he seems to have nothing to worry about. However, Arsenal still attach great importance to him and cannot give Huntelaar space. What if this fellow recovers?
Therefore, Arsenal’s forbidden area front is relatively empty!
On the sidelines, Arsenal coach Ars è ne Wenger was shocked that there was no one blocking such a big gap in the front of the box. What was going on?
“Seal it off. Watch out for long range shots!” Wenger roared.
On the pitch, Arsenal centre-back Kolo Toure was also shocked. He reacted and rushed towards Gourcuff.
Gourcuff looked at the empty front of the Arsenal box and sneered in his heart, “If you look down on me, then I won’t stand on ceremony!”
Gourcuff glanced at the Arsenal goal and shouted in his heart, “Go, New Triangle Arrow …”
Uh …
It was as if he had gone to the wrong set and shouted the wrong lines!
Don’t be afraid, do it again!
Gourcuff shouted in his heart, “Go, my ball …”
Gourcuff’s left foot stepped fiercely on the ground, and the nails of his shoes stuck firmly into the turf, bringing with them a burst of dust. His right leg was fiercely thrown backwards, stretching to the maximum extent, accumulating the strongest energy in his body, and then all of the energy gathered on the straightened instep of his right foot.
With a whoosh, a gust of wind rang out from his swiftly swinging right leg.
Gourcuff’s swing was very large, but his movements were swift and violent. In almost the blink of an eye, Gourcuff’s round right leg hit the football fiercely.
With a bang, Gourcuff’s straightened feet hit the football, and the football immediately flew out!
Chloe Toure, who had rushed out of the forbidden area, opened his eyes wide and shouted in his heart, “Don’t think about it! Watch this daddy block it for you!”
Colo Toure gritted his teeth and jumped up, using his body to block the flying soccer ball.
“Ah!” All the Arsenal fans screamed in horror, their eyes filled with horror.
“Gourcuff, get up and shoot!” BBC commentator Mark Lawrenson immediately screamed excitedly, his voice instantly invading the entire stadium.
Gourcuff was still shooting. His eyes were fixed on the flying football and he roared in his heart, “Get in there!”
In front of the goal, German goalkeeper Lehmann shouted, “Hao Yougen!”
Lehman’s legs kicked the ground fiercely, and his body immediately flew sideways. His right fist stretched out straight and flew towards the upper left corner of the goal!
“Get out of here!” Lehman roared like a ferocious beast.
Clang!
The ball, which was as fast as an afterimage, smashed into the bottom edge of the crossbar and the pillar of the goal, instantly changing directions, quickly smashing into the goal, quickly bouncing back and hitting the top net … The football was bouncing around the Arsenal goal repeatedly like this.
“Ah!” Zhong Cheng roared crazily, his fists suddenly propped up on both sides, and he stepped onto the wind wheel and rushed out at top speed.
In front of tens of thousands of fans, Zhong Cheng’s knees instantly softened, and his entire body slid several meters away from the turf!
“Ah! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal! Goal!” BBC commentator Mark Lawrenson also howled with excitement. He could feel the passion and excitement coming from so far away.
The goal was simply too visual, and the ball was like an unloaded cannonball that flew into Arsenal’s goal with an unstoppable momentum.
The Arsenal fans who came from afar were stunned. They looked at the scene on the pitch and were speechless for a long time.
Ars è ne Wenger was also staring blankly at the pitch with his mouth wide open. He did not expect the game to start in such a way!
The game had only just begun when the Leeds United took the lead?
Ars è ne Wenger shook his head. He did not believe what was happening in front of him. It was as if he was in a dream. However, the crazily kneeling Madman Loria was so real that he seemed to be telling him that this was not a dream!
Wenger was stunned!
However, Zhong Cheng was not stunned. Zhong Cheng, who was kneeling to the ground, did not get up. He just knelt there quietly with a concave shape. He looked like a cool statue.
‘”Hahaha! Madman Luo Yaya is so excited. He actually came to steal the show at this time and directly stole Gurkuf’s limelight. Hahaha, this slippery kneeling celebration is simply too unexpected. No one expected Madman Loria to be so capable of stealing the show. At this moment, let’s ask for the shadow area in Gurkuf’s heart. Hahaha!” Mark Lawrenson laughed heartily.
“Joan! Joan! Joan Gourcuff! Gourcuff!” Incomparably neat cheers rang out from the Leeds United stadium. The Leeds United fans were really too excited, too excited.
“Me! Madman Loria is really amazing! He really dug up another treasure this time! Gourcuff’s performance made everyone’s eyes light up. Is there something in Madman Loria’s mind? Why are all the players he has his eyes on so promising? Why?” Eddie Gray, the BBC’s commentator, exclaimed.
The Leeds United fans at the scene were also shocked. Isn’t Madman Loria’s eyes too sharp? How could he buy a person?
However, the Leeds United fans were very excited and happy. They are all hoping that Zhong Cheng can bring in more players like this, and Leeds United need to do so.
The Leeds United fans excitedly sang the familiar song:
“We have the crazy Roja,
We’re not afraid of anything!
All the Leeds fans came to keep up with Roja,
Let’s go to the end of the world together,
To create the most beautiful prosperity of our time! ”
Leeds United fans were filled with gratitude for Zhong Cheng. With Zhong Cheng around, they felt that Leeds United had boundless hope. Leeds United fans shouted in unison, “Roja! Roja! Long live Roja!”
–Division Line–
Ars è ne Wenger came to the sidelines and shouted, “Defend! Defend! Don’t you see the big gap in the front of the box? Watch it!”
The Arsenal players nodded in agreement.
It was indeed the Arsenal man’s problem this time and they underestimated their opponents. First of all, Gilberto Silva underestimated Gourcuff. The Arsenal centre-backs then underestimated Gourcuff, giving him space and time to shoot from afar.
Ars è ne Wenger shouted: “Get serious! Don’t underestimate your opponents!”
Ars è ne Wenger was really angry. He had warned Leeds United many times before the match not to underestimate them. These damned players were actually ignoring him.
This is good, you’re behind!
On the pitch, the Arsenal players were a little embarrassed. It was indeed their own fault. He underestimated his opponent so much that he suffered retribution.
The mentality of the Arsenal players has changed. They are going to play seriously.
The serious Arsenal team immediately launched an attack, the overall pressure is fast, they want to use their sharp attack as soon as possible to equalize the score.
However, Zhong Cheng’s Fabregas had just caught the ball and was about to pass it when Gourcuff pulled him to the ground and the referee punished him for a foul.
Gourcuff’s foul was very swift and fierce. It was aggressive, but not dangerous. This puts psychological pressure on Arsenal players and does not mean that they will not be booked. The Leeds United players have a lot of defensive experience.
Arsenal drove a free-kick and Fabregas quickly moved the ball forward and it rolled at Henry’s feet. But Henry had his back to Leeds United’s goal and Nigel Dejon held him back from turning around.
Nigel Dejon’s pressure on Henry’s body was very intense. Henry’s body kept rising and falling, and the football beneath his feet was a little uncontrollable.
Henry tried to turn around many times but failed. He had no choice but to give up turning around and swing his leg to pass the ball, but at this moment, a figure slid out from the side and shoveled the football under his feet.
Arsenal winger Alex Hleb rushed up to the football pitch.
Just as Hleb was about to grab the ball, Leeds United defender Gary Kelly charged forward ferociously. He was extremely ferocious and didn’t even have the intention to stop. He rushed towards Hleb fiercely.
Hleb was shocked. He stopped in an instant and the football beneath his feet was broken by Gary Kelly.
Ars è ne Wenger frowned as he saw the tactics of the Leeds United side.
Ars è ne Wenger couldn’t help but look at Zhong Cheng at the front of the Lizzie United restricted area and secretly hated, “Holy shit! Your methods are so dirty, damn it!”
Ars è ne Wenger is a bit nervous, worried about their attack and the health of the Arsenal players. If the Leeds United continue to play like this, their Arsenal players will inevitably suffer injuries!
Ars è ne Wenger’s expression was gloomy as he looked at Zhong Cheng with a cold gaze.
Zhong Cheng didn’t care about it at all, even ignoring it. He came to the sidelines and shouted in a voice that Wenger could hear, “Defend! Strengthen the defense, be more ferocious!”
Ars è ne Wenger’s lungs are about to explode when he hears this. Is this damn guy playing football or wrestling? This was aimed at hurting people!
Ars è ne Wenger immediately complained to the fourth official: “Sir Alex, what are you talking about? This is a football match, not a boxing free-for-all. Is there anyone who instigates his players to play so dirtily?”
Zhong Cheng was unconvinced and immediately said, “What’s wrong with me having my players strengthen their defenses? Could it be that Leeds United can’t defend? Isn’t it good to have Leeds United stand still and let you score?”
Wenger’s eyes widened as he glared at Zhong Cheng and shouted, “You … you … you’re unreasonable!”
