The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 284
284 Hope Is Often Accompanied by Despair
2-0, Leeds United expanded their lead!
Huntelaar, who scored, was very excited. He kept waving his fists at Leeds United fans in the stands and even turned to give Arsenal substitute Robin van Persie a thumbs up …
However, this thumb was upside down!
Humiliation! This was a blatant humiliation!
On the Arsenal bench, Van Persie’s expression instantly collapsed, his face filled with rage!
The Arsenal players and fans jumped up and cursed at the arrogant Huntelaar. They were like they had been trampled on by a painful foot, cursing with their teeth and claws, they were simply a bunch of shrews.
Huntelaar didn’t care and just shrugged his shoulders before returning to his seat.
How is it? Now it’s good. Em?
Is your face swollen? Do you feel embarrassed to see people? Was his face burning with pain?
Humph! You all deserve this day as well!
Huntelaar stared coldly at the Arsenal players and fans with a scarlet glint in his eyes. “Wait for me, it’s not over, it’s not over!”
Huntelaar turned around and glared at Van Persie with contempt in his eyes.
“See, I can start in the Premier League, I can score in the Premier League. You can only watch from the bench, this is the gap between us! You have never wanted to catch up to me in your life!”
Huntelaar thought firmly in his heart.
Looking at Huntelaar’s gaze, Van Persie’s heart was filled with rage. Damn it, that damned fellow actually dared to humiliate him like this, courting death! He was courting death!
Van Persie couldn’t help but stand up and take three steps in front of Ars è ne Wenger. “Professor, please let me play! I’m going to fight them!” He pleaded.
Ars è ne Wenger immediately turned to look at Van Persie. He frowned slightly as he looked at the fighting spirit and anger on Van Persie’s face. At this time, there weren’t many attacking players available for him to exchange. After all, Henry was sent off in shock. Bergkamp was replaced. He was indeed a little hesitant.
Van Persie said firmly, “Professor, let me go. I will not disappoint you! I am no worse than the monkey opposite me!”
Wenger looked at Van Persie and nodded.
Bergkamp was too old to think about the past, so it was time for him to take a rest. Ars è ne Wenger agreed to Van Persie’s request to replace him.
Change! Arsenal have substituted Robin van Persie for Bergkamp!
Zhong Cheng turned his head to look at Wenger, and then there was nothing else! This substitution was normal. Bergkamp was indeed not as strong as before. He was 36 years old and could not play such a high-intensity game.
And now there are rumours that Bergkamp will retire at the end of the season.
In Zhong Cheng’s memory, the legendary Dutch star Bergkamp really chose to retire at the end of this season, ending his legendary career as a player and starting his coaching career.
At this point, Wenger is considering Bergkamp’s fitness as well as the possibility of his successor joining the club as soon as possible, preferably seamlessly.
For multiple reasons, Van Persie and Reyes are making more and more appearances this season.
However, from the current point of view, Reyes seems to be crippled, Wenger is more optimistic about Van Persie, Van Persie’s playing time is more and more.
Reyes had been scared to death by the Neville brothers and Boumsong and Chimbonda’s fierce shovelling. Now that he was no longer as intelligent as before, it was no wonder that Van Persie had the chance to ascend to the throne.
Zhong Cheng immediately signaled Van Persie to step up his defense. The current Van Persie was not as gorgeous as the next generation. Van Persie’s left foot was very powerful, but his right foot was very trash. As long as he focused on his left foot, Van Persie would have little chance.
Most importantly, Van Persie’s current body was very thin and weak. He used his body to defend against the oppression of his football puppets, so Van Persie was no longer a threat.
Ville Mullen immediately gave Zhong Cheng a thumbs up, indicating that he had heard it.
Looking at Vermaelen’s movements, Zhong Cheng nodded. With his assurance, Zhong Cheng was relieved.
Zhong Cheng turned his head to look at Wenger and smiled. He looked very relaxed and was confident of winning!
The game on the pitch is continuing and now that the final 20 minutes of the game are in hand, there is not much time left for Arsenal to equalise. Arsenal fans are very anxious. Leeds United fans were relaxed, they all thought Arsenal had no chance.
The first time Van Persie took the ball was to create a threat. This fellow suddenly broke through with his left foot at the front of the restricted area and shook Virginia Mullen. Then he swung his leg and shot the ball towards Leeds United’s goal.
The Leeds United fans were shocked. Fortunately, Zhong Zheng reacted promptly and immediately threw the football sideways.
A corner kick. Arsenal get a corner kick. Ljungberg drives the corner kick. Campbell jumped up high in the forbidden area and headed towards the goal. Unfortunately, Zhong Zheng was able to hold the football firmly in his arms!
“Nice. Aldrich’s defense is too tight. Arsenal don’t have a chance. It’s not that Arsenal’s striker can’t do it, but Aldrich is too strong. I think Eriksson should recruit Aldrich into England now!” Mark Lawrenson couldn’t help but exclaim in admiration.
Zhong Zheng threw the ball with great force and launched a quick attack. Ribery on the side broke through with the ball at high speed, showing the elegance of Leeds United’s first brother. Then, he suddenly made a backward triangular pass, and Gourcuff, who followed closely behind, shot a kick. The football was saved by Lehman.
Leeds United counterattacked quickly but failed to break through Arsenal’s goal.
In the corner, Gourcuff sent the football into the restricted area with an arc. Lippik jumped high but fell. The football flew towards Huntelaar, who was behind. Huntelaar smashed the football onto the pillar of the goal and bounced off the bottom line with a clang!
Huntelaar held his head with both hands, feeling extremely regretful.
Leeds United fans gave Huntelaar thunderous applause and shouted Huntelaar’s name neatly. Huntelaar, whom they were familiar with, had returned, and their Archer King had returned!
The Leeds United fans shouted excitedly.
However, it was at this moment that Arsenal launched a very beautiful attack. A series of wonderful passes and exquisite coordination between Hleb, Ljungberg and Fabregas instantly tore apart Leeds United’s defensive line.
Van Persie missed the ball in the front of the restricted area and directly left the ball behind.
Ljungberg, who was in midair, rushed forward with a low kick. The ball was fast and had a crafty angle. It quickly passed through the falling bell and hit the inside of the post of the distant goal. Then, it bounced into the goal of Leeds United.
The ball went in, one to two!
Arsenal scored a goal and the Arsenal fans who came from afar were so excited that their faces turned red. They were neatly swelling their chorus and rushing towards the final charge trumpet!
Arsenal’s attack was like a tidal wave ferociously rushing towards Leeds United’s goal, wave after wave, like a tsunami flood, never stopping …
On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng could not sit still. He stood up and came to the sidelines, shouting from time to time.
“Back! Back! Watch out for the back! Hleb’s here, stop him! Stop him!”
When Sagna heard the shout, she immediately turned around and shoveled the football with a ferocious slippery shovel.
Zhong Cheng gave Sagna a thumbs up, “Well done, that’s it! Stop them! Don’t give them a chance, stick to the line, keep the pressure on them, you know?”
Not long after, Zhong Cheng’s shout sounded again, and it was very loud.
“Pay attention to the distance! Distance! Keep the defensive line neat. Move! Move! Move! Run! Right! Right! That’s it! Hold on!”
“Get out, get out! What are you doing? Are you playing?”
“Alright, alright, alright! This time, the defense is pretty good. Hurry up and go back to your position. Watch your people. Don’t get rid of them easily!”
“Thomas, keep an eye on Van Persie. Follow him. Don’t let him do anything. Follow him. Steven Gerrard, push him out. Gilberto Silva has a long shot. Nice job. Nice job! That’s it, that’s it.”
Zhong Cheng’s voice rose and fell, occasionally shocked, occasionally screaming, occasionally cheering, occasionally going crazy …
The Leeds United fans were heavily kicking their breath, their eyes fixed on the field. During this period of time, the Leeds United defense line was really too dangerous.
Arsenal were on drugs at this point, attacking ferociously, putting a lot of pressure on Leeds United and creating a lot of trouble. Leeds United’s defensive line seems to be in jeopardy, no wonder the Arsenal man is so energetic now!
“Attack! Attack! Attack again! If we attack again, the Leeds United won’t be able to withstand it. Let’s move forward!” Ars è ne Wenger also jumped and jumped on the sidelines, shouting loudly. They saw the hope of leveling up, and all of them exerted their strength to suck milk.
However, Van Persie, who had been replaced, did not perform very well.
On the contrary, Arsenal’s Huntelaar performed very well. It was as if he was a different person in this match, and it was as if he had instantly opened the Ren and Du meridians. He was extremely fierce and sharp.
At this moment, Leeds United midfielder Alexander Song suddenly cut off the football at the feet of midfielder Fabregas. Alexander Song kicked the ball straight to Gourcuff, and Gilberto Silva quickly rushed up from behind him, wanting to surprise him.
Unexpectedly, Gourcuff was like a long eye behind his head. He did not stop the ball, but opened his legs and directly missed the football.
Unprepared, Gilberto Silva watched as the football rolled between his legs and behind him.
“Huntelaar! Huntelaar borrowed the football and he came again!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
“Ah beautiful! She turned around beautifully. Huntelaar wore Campbell’s crotch. Campbell was ruthlessly toyed with by Huntelaar. Single blade, single blade Huntelaar!” Mark Lawrenson roared excitedly.
On the sidelines, Zhong Cheng instantly jumped up, waved his fist, and roared loudly, “Crass, shatter all doubts! Shatter him for this daddy!”
Huntelaar roared in his heart, “Get in here!”
With a bang, Huntelaar swung the football fiercely. The football flashed like a white light and flew straight into Arsenal’s goal. The entire arena was deathly silent.
The Arsenal fans felt as if they had been strangled by their necks, making no sound and their faces flushed red with shame.
No! How could this be? How could that be?
Three to one!
