The Legendary Chairman Novel - Chapter 546
546 Remember My Name Is Cavani!
“A heavy header, Leeds United is finished!”
“Unbelievable! Unbelievable! Aldrich sent the football flying with one palm, a miraculous save!”
“Heavens! The danger is not over yet. Henry, King of Highbury, come up and shoot!”
The two commentators of the BBC were unusually busy at this time. The words in their mouths were like cannonballs that shot out continuously, creating a tense atmosphere.
The hearts of the fans on both sides of the field were pulled together. Their eyes were fixated on the field, and they didn’t dare to let out a single breath of air. They were just so nervous.
Henry quickly inserted himself and pushed Vermaelen away with his own body. Vermaelen was a bit careless. He didn’t expect Henry to be behind him. He wanted to protect the football before he could clear the encirclement. It was this moment that gave Henry the chance to steal it.
If Vermaelen got out of the encirclement immediately, he wouldn’t dare to kick out the sidelines or the bottom line, he would be able to easily resolve this crisis. However, he chose to defend the ball, which was a bit slow.
Henry quickly rushed up from behind and used his body’s inertia to squeeze away Vermaelen’s quick shovel.
Henry had made the fastest choice in the shortest amount of time. After saying so many things, his movements were almost as fast as lightning in the blink of an eye!
How could Zhong Zheng react to this?
The hearts of all Leeds United fans exploded with despair.
However, at this moment, Zhong Zheng miraculously reacted a second time. His body bounced on the ground, and then he quickly reached out to seal the ball.
With a slap, the football hit the tip of Zhong Zheng’s palm!
“Wow, Aldrich pounced again, my God” Before he could finish his sentence, Eddie Gray suddenly roared with regret, “Oh my God, luck, Leeds United’s luck is a little bad. Aldrich’s two consecutive pouncements have blocked Arsenal’s shot. But he won’t be able to finish it for the third time!”
Yes, after the football was thrown out by Zhong Zheng, a person flashed out from the crowd and easily stretched out his legs to stab the football into the empty door!
“Wow! Nice, Fabregas! Fabregas’s shot broke Leeds United’s goal. Nice goal, perfect!” Mark Lawrenson roared excitedly.
The Arsenal fans who came all the way here were unusually excited. They were all jumping around excitedly and shouting Fabregas’ name loudly. They were really too excited.
Arsenal’s goal was hard to come by. Leeds United goalkeeper Zhong Zheng was like an insurmountable obstacle in front of the goal. This fellow was a divine servant for two consecutive times, blocking the Arsenal goal that was bound to be scored. It was truly amazing.
Leeds United fans shook their heads helplessly. Zhong Zheng did a great job. Unfortunately, this ball was still not defended. It was very heartache, and it was even more helpless!
Actually, the biggest problem with this ball was that it was in Virginia Mullen’s hands. This guy was underestimating his opponent. Perhaps it was because he wasn’t in his best condition, and the reactions and choices he made weren’t ideal.
After the ball was thrown, Vermaelen blamed himself and shook his head.
Arsenal beat Leeds United 1-0 on the road.
Arsène Wenge wasn’t excited, but let out a sigh of relief. If the goal is not scored, it will be a huge blow to the confidence of the Arsenal players, then how will they face Leeds United’s goalkeeper Zhong Zheng?
Arsène Wenge rejoiced, rejoicing that Fabregas had appeared in the position he should have appeared in the most, otherwise this match would have been difficult!
After scoring the goal, Arsène Wenge signaled the Arsenal players to stay calm and not rush to attack. And don’t give Leeds United a chance, especially to strengthen the high-altitude defense at the back. Leeds United are definitely going to play high-altitude.
Sure enough, in the next attack, Leeds United were all looking for Luca Tony in front of them.
Luca Tony really stands out from the rest of Arsenal’s defence and it’s really difficult for Arsenal defenders to defend against Luca Tony.
Watkin’s 45-degree slanted cross sent the ball flying toward Luca Tony in the middle of the box. Kolo Toure and Gallas, who were beside Luca Toni, jumped up one by one to defend against Luca Toni. However, Luca Toni still managed to head the ball, shooting it towards Arsenal’s goal with a head-shake.
However, Luca Tony was still affected by the interference of the two of them. The football was full of strength, but the angle was slightly right. The football was confiscated by Lehman.
After confiscating the football, Lehmann directly drove it away with a big foot and the football flew towards Adebayor in front of him. Adebayor raised his head high and swung the ball under Henry’s feet. Henry immediately charged forward with the ball and suddenly changed directions horizontally. Then, he shot out.
The football whistled towards Leeds United’s goal. Zhong Zheng flew sideways and pushed the football out of the baseline with one palm!
A corner kick. Arsenal get another corner kick.
This time, Hleb also pushed the football into the restricted area. But Zhong Zheng rushed out, jumped high and took the football off Adebayor’s head.
Zhong Zheng, who took off the football, threw the ball at Ribery, who was on the side.
After Ribery caught the ball, he suddenly pulled the ball around and pretended to break through. He crossed the ball across the middle and came two-on-one with Modric.
Ribery bypassed Arsenal winger Clichy and chased after the ball to Arsenal’s half-court area.
“Wow, counterattack, Leeds United’s counterattack is coming!” Eddie Gray shouted excitedly, his voice extremely loud!
The Arsenal fans were also nervous. It was dangerous. Leeds United’s counter-attack was very sharp and they were more or less worried.
Arsenal centre-back Gallas had no choice but to let go of Luca Tony and charge out to intercept Ribery. Although Ribery’s condition wasn’t very good, he couldn’t let Ribery act recklessly. He ferociously pounced on him.
Just as Gallas was about to save, Ribery stopped bringing the ball.
Ribery himself felt that he was going to die soon. With two more steps, he would lose his strength. Now, he could feel that his condition was too bad. He didn’t have any strength under his feet.
Seeing Gallas rush out, Ribery suddenly felt that Gallas was a great savior. This was completely saving him. He immediately swung his leg and passed the ball in an arc, passing the ball to the center of the forbidden area.
Gallas was shocked. He immediately jumped up and tried to push the football out, but the football flew over his head. They flew behind him.
Gallas’s heart skipped a beat. It’s over, this ball is going to be finished! Gallas immediately turned his head to look at the middle of his forbidden area, and now all his hopes were placed on Colo Toure.
The ball flew into the middle of the box and Kolo Toure was taller, but he was carried by the tall Luca Tony and could not retreat. Looking at the trajectory of the football, Kolo Toure was shocked. If he did not retreat, the ball would definitely fall.
Kolo Toure was shocked. He pushed back ferociously, but Luca Tony held on tightly. Kolo Toure did not move at all.
“It’s over. Madame is finished this time!” Kolo Toure cursed.
Seeing the football flying over, Kolo Toure had no choice but to jump. He was desperately trying to jump up, hoping that he could jump a few centimeters higher. At this time, he sincerely hoped that he could be a few centimeters taller so that he could pounce on the football.
“Ah, it’s a roof fall, Kolo Toure’s a roof fall, Leeds United’s chance!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
The ball flew over Kolo Toure’s head, and Luca Tony, who had jumped up high, threw her head straight at the goal. Lehmann immediately moved sideways to the left of the goal, ready to save.
However, the soccer ball did not fly towards the goal. Instead, it flew directly to the right of the restricted area.
“Wow, Luca Tony didn’t hit the ball, the ball didn’t hit the goal, it was a pass, it went straight to Edison Cavani on the right!” Eddie Gray roared excitedly.
In front of the goal, Lehman was shocked. He immediately turned around and pounced on the right side of the goal.
At this time, Edison Cavani saw the ball coming and didn’t stop it. He swung his leg and shot it in the air.
Edison Cavani swiftly swung his leg, as if he had used all of his strength to swing his leg towards the football, “Damn trash, look at how powerful I am!”
With a bang, Zhong Cheng swung the football fiercely, and the football flew towards Arsenal’s goal. The speed of the ball was really fast, like a bolt of lightning.
Lehman, who was in front of the goal, was stunned because the football flew to the left.
As he moved to the right, he immediately braked, but the inertia of his body still carried him to the right. He missed it perfectly like football, which flew into Arsenal’s goal without any suspense.
Leeds United scored 1-1!
“Cavani! Cavani! Kaka Kaka Kaka Kavani! It was Cavani who scored! Beautiful high-altitude shot, Cavani is really too powerful, too perfect! The ball displayed his sense of smell and excellent shooting skills. Seeing this kind of performance, who else dared to call Edison Cavani a parallel importer? How shameless are you, huh? ‘Eddie Gray roared excitedly, not forgetting to rehabilitate Edison Cavani.
The Leeds United fans were very excited, jumping around excitedly and shouting Cavani’s name neatly, “Edinson! Edinson! Edinson! We love you! You’re really amazing! You’re the future king!”
Edison Cavani, who scored the goal, was very excited. He rushed to the press gallery frantically, wantonly showing the names on the back of his shirt to the reporters in the press gallery. He told them that it was Cavani who scored the goal, it was him, Edison Cavani.
At this time, the reporters in the press gallery had fiery faces. This slap on their faces made them feel painful.
Especially Gary Arnoldsith. His entire face was ashen, as if he had been slapped blue by Edison Cavani.
Seeing this, Arsène Wenge shook his head helplessly. The problem was with Luca Toni. No one could restrict Luca Toni. The match was really close. Looks like Arsenal need a tall centre-back. If Luca Toni continues to act so recklessly, Arsenal will be doomed for this game.
