"GOAL!!! Walcott passed the ball, and Arsenal's 17-year-old Alexander used a wonderful overhead shot to help the team open the scoring! This was Bayern's first goal conceded in 2013, and it was also Alexander's first goal in 2013. Arsenal's first goal!
At 17 years and 188 days, he broke Cesc Fabregas' record and became the youngest Champions League scorer in Arsenal's history and the youngest Champions League scorer in the history of the English League. It's time for Hodgson to take action! Even if he doesn't believe in me, he should believe in Wenger. Alexander is qualified to wear the England jersey. "
Sanmiao coach Hodgson appeared in the center of the camera.
Compared with the excited crowd around him, he seemed relatively calm. He just stood there and clapped softly, but who knows how many turbulent waves were rolling in the old man's heart.
He mainly came to inspect Walcott and Wilshere today, but now all his thoughts are on Alexander.
He naturally knew that ten goals in a single game was such a sensation, and he also knew that Alexander was English, but after all, it was only a youth team game, and he didn't have a collecting habit like Wenger. After paying attention to it casually, he didn't do it again. He ignored it, who knew Alexander would give him such a big surprise.
"Look again, look again, it's just a goal, it doesn't mean anything…" Hodgson wrote down Alexander's name in his notebook and drew several small circles on it. .
Alexander rushed to the sidelines with endless cheers, and finally chose the most familiar celebration move for Gunners fans: kneeling and gliding.
"I saw Hodgson just now. He is probably already on his mind."
"Although, my mood is still a bit complicated, please wish me the best."
"It's like England is so powerful."
"It's better to be worse, right? Once the national football team comes out, who can compete?"
"It's such a great day, why bother? Why don't you have some fun?"
"Let me tell you, there is something about this ball. It's just that our team is short."
The slow motion of the goal had already appeared on the screen. The moment the football came, Alexander suddenly jumped high, and the height of the jump was quite exaggerated. From the picture, after he turned upside down, the man standing next to him Ram actually only reached his waist, and his two long legs had already crossed Ram's entire body. The visual effect was that the shot was almost completed on Ram's head.
A sense of déjà vu as the Bayern captain was dunked by a new gunner.
After being eaten alive by Torres in the European Cup final, Lahm left another scene that will last a lifetime in his career.
In the stands, Isabella jumped up when Alexander scored, and then quickly cried with joy, while John could not recover for a long time.
"Congratulations, John !"
"Hahaha, it's more than that. He's better than his master."
For a father, this is probably the highest praise.
A bright smile appeared on John's face, and his tone was three parts pleased, three parts proud, three parts emotional, and one part overwhelmed: "Yes, he Is much better than me."
John was not used to his son suddenly being so awesome, so he had to take some time to get used to it.
After Alexander slipped to his knees on the sidelines, he only kept his posture of kneeling and clenching his fists for three seconds, then quickly stood up and rushed to the coaching bench.
Wenger, who was clenching his fists and punching the air blindly, seemed to realize something. When he looked up, he saw Alexander running towards him.
He was about to open his arms and give Alexander a loving hug. Unexpectedly, Alexander stretched out his right hand from far away. He could only follow the example and stretched out his right hand to face the flying bird. The palm of his hand slapped hard.
"Snapped!"
The two palms hit each other, and the scene seemed to freeze at this moment. The most classic scene in the memory of Arsenal fans was born, and it was faithfully recorded by the cameras on the sidelines and displayed in front of the world's audience.
"hiss!"
Wenger waited until Alexander ran away before secretly rubbing his sore palms, wishing he could pull this kid back and give him a good beating.
Walcott took advantage of his speed and was the first to catch up with Alexander and jumped onto his back with a flying dive.
Wilshere followed, then Bordowski and Arteta rushed over, men on top of men.
Dante walked up to Ram and said shamefully: "His positioning is too cunning…"
"It's not just about movement," Lahm said seriously, "We were fooled by Wenger. This is not a new player at all. We must treat him as the most threatening type of person."
In fact, in the goal just now, the most impressive thing about Alexander was his ghostly running position and amazing bounce, or his good luck. But as the most direct victim in the game, Lahm looked at him at that moment. There are other things that can only be felt in top forwards: decisiveness, confidence, and a kind of fierceness and madness that seems to eat the back players alive.
Neuer picked up the football in the goal, kicked it to the midfield with a big kick in a venting manner, and then came to the two of them, "Bad start, isn't it?"
"Yes, a terrible start…"
Ram cheered in a low voice and then immediately cheered up and clapped to attract the attention of his teammates.
"Okay, brothers, let us forget everything just now, the game really begins now! We are Bayern, and we will definitely leave here with victory!"
"come on! Come on!"
"victory!"
Alexander also quickly completed the celebration. He waved to the stands where his parents were, and then returned to his position with his teammates.
A third of it.
He thinks.
"The strongest debut in the history of the Champions League" doesn't seem to be difficult?
The whistle sounded, and the battle began again.
As soon as Mandzukic kicked the ball out, Alexander immediately stepped forward to press for it.
The football was passed back to Bayern's penalty area, and he chased it all the way.
Arsenal fans now love this kid so much that even the carbon dioxide he exhales smells like toast.
"So motivated, this is the real gunman! I think I saw Henry coming back!"
"That's it, congratulations to Wenger, he won again!"
"Alexander, rush, rush, rush!"
"Hahaha, Alex is here, are you scared, Ram?"
The football was passed to Lahm's feet. Lahm was afraid that Alexander was a ghost, so he immediately faked the fax and passed Alexander cleanly.
The cheers of the visiting team's fans had just started. Ram was about to pass the ball diagonally to Bastian Schweinsteiger in the middle, when a black shadow suddenly came from behind.
Ram was startled and quickly pulled the ball to dodge, but he was still a step too late, and Alexander knocked the ball out of bounds with him.
Alexander's power was no joke. Ram fell to the ground pitifully like a broken puppet.
With almost negligible boos from Bayern fans and cheers from Arsenal fans, the referee rushed to the scene immediately and blew his whistle immediately.
After the first goal, the first foul of his career came.
Alexander stretched out his hand to pull Ram up, and the two of them did not communicate except for looking at each other.
At this time, Lahm is already the captain of both Germany and Bayern, and can almost be regarded as one of the best defenders in the world today, while Alexander is just starting out. He has only played a few minutes in the official game, but regardless of his technical skills, On both a physical and mental level, Ram already regarded the opponent as an opponent who should be fought equally.
Hodgson made another note for Alexander in his notebook.
"Active defensive attitude, good speed, likes physical confrontation…"
As for the physical confrontation ability, Lahm's opponent obviously has no reference value, so Hodgson has not discovered Alexander's biggest advantage yet.
The boundary kick was taken and Bayern began to launch an offensive. Alexander continued to ambush near the Bayern penalty area as a forward forward.
The Bundesliga giants quickly took advantage in the midfield, and the game gradually entered Bayern's rhythm.
The Gunners fans were happy but within two minutes they were living in fear again.
Heynckes was quite calm, sitting on the coaching bench like nothing happened and letting his disciples play freely.
On the contrary, it was Wenger. Although he also stood on the sidelines without saying a word, his frown and serious expression showed that the professor was not as confident as he appeared on the surface.
There is a gap visible to the naked eye in the strength of both sides.
You know, he has spent all his money in this game, which is the best he can do at present, but Bayern is not the strongest Bayern yet, at least they haven't even played Robben yet.
"Arsenal's current situation is quite serious. Not only did they exit the League Cup early, they were also eliminated from the FA Cup by Blackburn Rovers 1-0 in the last round. They lost hope of winning the league early and may even lose their chance to participate in next season's Champions League at any time. With the possibility of qualification, the pressure on Wenger is unprecedented…"
Wenger is justified in being nervous.
He had been holding back his big move for more than half a month to get a dream start, but Bayern wiped him out in just 7 minutes…
Muller showed the same running position as Alexander, and actually ran into a big gap without everyone noticing.
Bastian Schweinsteiger made a low pass, and Muller got the ball comfortably on the wing…
"Schweinsteiger distributed the ball to the wing, Muller received the ball, and there was no one around him! Sagna missed someone?!"
Sania rushed forward in a hurry to make a rescue, but Erwa had already taken advantage of it and gently poked the ball to her side, kicked it to a suitable distance for a run-up, and then took what she thought was the coolest pose. Completed a well-timed curve ball pass.
Cross rushed in from the edge of the penalty area, and without any time to make any adjustments, he hit the football hard.
"…Mueller passed the ball and Kroos volleyed! GOAL!!! Kroos helped Bayern Munich tie the score! In the seventh minute of the game, the two sides had already jointly contributed two wonderful goals!"
"Bayern's firepower this season is quite scattered. Nine players have scored goals in the Champions League, ranking first among all teams."
Bayern players celebrated wildly at the Emirates Stadium.
Heynckes couldn't pretend anymore and ran to the sidelines to hug his assistant coach. His excitement was beyond words.
Heynckes was not an Arsenal fan, and even if he was, he couldn't show it. However, because of Alexander, he had unknowingly joined the Gunners camp. There was regret in his tone, "It's a pity that Alexander caused the explosion." Let's start! Arsenal's defender has an unshirkable responsibility for conceding the ball. Such mistakes should not occur in a game of this level. I hope Arsenal will not be affected and adjust as soon as possible…"
Arsenal was not only affected, but severely affected.
After the game started, this technical team, which is famous in Europe for its beautiful playing style, became very unfamiliar.
In the 11th minute, Arteta fouled Kroos in front of the penalty area. Van Buyten's free kick was blocked by the wall.
In the 15th minute, Vermaelen fouled Harvey Martinez in front of the penalty area, but Schweinsteiger's free kick from 25 yards on the right deflected off his teammate and bounced off the baseline.
In the 17th minute, Ribery broke through from the wing and was shoveled out of the boundary by Cazorla with the ball. The two sides almost came to blows…
Within ten minutes, Arsenal did not even have a decent offensive. On the contrary, they were beaten until they were almost breathless. They could only contain Nan Dawang's offensive through various fouls.
No one expected Bayern to be so terrifying today.
Alexander stood alone in the frontcourt, not knowing whether to blame his opponent for being too strong or his teammates for being too weak.
Bayern's free kick did not pose a threat, but the offensive continued unabated. Alexander, who was isolated in the frontcourt, wanted to return to the midfield to participate In the defense. Wilshere suddenly judged Harvey Insteiger's pass correctly like a divine aid. In the direction of the ball, he intercepted the ball with a beautiful sliding tackle.
Alexander immediately turned around and drove straight into Bayern's goal.
Ram also turned around, but he didn't catch up immediately, but deliberately took a step behind like a thief.
As for Dante, he simply couldn't keep up with his reaction and speed, and fell behind Alexander from the beginning…
The football flew high and landed in front of Alexander.
"…Wilshere successfully intercepted and passed a long ball from the backcourt! Alexander got the ball in the middle and went one-on-one! Neuer attacked… Huh? Offside? Well, it seems that he is really… an experienced puller. Mu taught Alexander a lesson. After all, Alexander was too young and fell into Bayern's offside trap…"
Although an opportunity was wasted, the home fans still applauded Alexander.
Alexander didn't know whether they were really so generous and kind, or because he was a "heartthrobs". In short, he felt a little unworthy. After all, with his speed, even Ram and Dante were three meters away. There is no need to be so nervous if you get the chance.
It is inevitable that he just thinks about rushing, nothing compared to someone who has experienced hundreds of battles and is meticulous about all the details.
While summing up his experience, he kicked the ball to Neuer, but found that the guy's expression was a little off, as if he was quite disappointed.
What? Do you still want to stop my single sword attack?
Neuer does have this idea, and his wish will soon be fulfilled, but before that, Arsenal was severely chopped by the opponent.
In the 31st minute of the game, Kroos took a corner kick. Van Buyten got rid of Wilshere and his header was barely blocked by Szczesny. Muller poked the ball into the net from close range, 1-2…
The entire Arsenal fans were silent, except for the Germans' shouts that spread throughout the stadium.
"Thomas Muller became the first German to pass and score against an English team in the history of the Champions League. With his pass and shot, Bayern Munich also reversed Arsenal and temporarily took a one-goal lead in the away game."
"Arsenal must make changes! It's time for Wenger to stand up, well, you can't count on Wenger at this time…"
Wenger's on-the-spot command is as world-famous as his knowledge of people. The latter rarely disappoints Arsenal fans, while the former never disappoints Arsenal's opponents.
Alexander stood in the center circle and kicked off for the third time.
Captain Vermaelen was trying to boost morale, but judging from everyone's reaction, the effect was minimal.
I used to watch Arsenal from the perspective of the Reading youth team, and I just thought that this team was awesome, almost perfect, and had a shining gold-lettered sign that made people want to join. Now that I have become a member of it, I have discovered that it is amazing. The so-called wealthy families after losing the mystery are actually just the same thing. They also have all kinds of advantages and disadvantages, and good things and bad things coexist.
At least judging from the performance of these few dozen minutes, Arsenal today really does not deserve a victory, or even a draw.
However, after being reversed, Arsenal finally showed a bit of Gunners style.
In the 34th minute of the game, Alaba made a mistake. After taking the ball, Sagna took the ball across the center line and passed it from the right. However, Walcott's shot from the right side of the penalty area was blocked by Lahm.
In the 37th minute, Ramsey broke through with the ball and swept the ball to the goal on the left side of the penalty area. Alexander rushed to hit the goal, but due to Dante's interference, he sent the ball directly into the arms of Neuer.
Fans are not so tolerant now. It doesn't matter whether you are 17 or 70, will still complain when it's time to do so, but it turns out that some people are actually eels, and they were targeting Alexander just now The group of people who were spitting out fragrance turned into the craziest in just one minute.
"The game has been prepared for 40 minutes, and the score is still 1-2, but Arsenal's offense has obviously improved…Huh? As soon as the words were spoken, Arsenal's opportunity came again…"
Heynckes tone seemed quite calm because Arsenal's attack was actually difficult to associate with the word "opportunity".
Walcott dribbled the ball from the wing, once again passed Javi Martinez at speed and then knocked the ball across the middle.
Wilshere followed up with a direct kick.
Alexander overcorrected a little this time and actually waited a moment before starting to chase the ball.
Lahm could barely keep up at first, but with Alexander's big strides, the Bayern captain was quickly left behind.
"Wilshere made a direct pass, and Alexander succeeded in countering offside! But this time it was a bit slow, and Dante followed up…"
Although Dante chased after him, there was nothing he could do. Seeing that Alexander was about to rush into the penalty area, he could only do nothing and hurriedly stretched his legs to trip over Alexander's feet.
This outstretched interception is so fast and ruthless that it even has a special term: wood-cutting tackle.
His right leg was like an ax, "cutting" directly towards Alexander's left leg.
Isabella in the stands exclaimed and couldn't bear to watch.
It seemed that the scene of Alexander screaming and falling to the ground was about to appear in front of everyone's eyes, but they didn't expect that the scream came from Dante…
Alexander just stumbled forward, and then caught up with the football as if nothing happened.
Neuer abandoned the door and was about to meet Alexander in the small penalty
