Chapter 11 - knock out stages

Thank you Tenma_Hayate for the power stone

Adewale was now a member of the first squad but due to his age and concerns on fatigue Arsenal although their performance had not being the best had managed to make it to the knockout stages

Adewale had managed to score 4 goals and 3 assist in 3 games

Arsenal was set to play a game against Roma in knock out stages for their first match

The match was to take place in Turkey, Instanbul in the Atatürk Olympic Stadium

The Arsenal team traveled to turkey for the match against Roma

Adewale wouldn't play in the first and would be subbed in after the second half

The first half began and Arsenal started the game playing aggressively and not giving the Roma side a room to regain their bearing

The first goal came at the 5th minute for Arsenal

Arsenal's midfielder spotting the perfect opportunity, he launched a long pass towards the Arsenal striker Kaylin

And the midfielder sends it long to the forward

Kaylin received the ball and immediately sprinted forward almost outrunning the retreating defenders

Kaylin received the ball and he is off , leaving the defenders behind

Suddenly a Roma defender tried to tug hat his shirt to slow him down but kaylin shook him off making the defender lose balance and making an embarrassing fall on his buttocks

Oh kaylin shook of the defender leaving him one on one with the goalkeeper

The goal keeper being the last line of defence, decided to rush out and close of kaylin to block his shot

But kaylin just slotted it into the back of the net and the score is one to nil

Goooooooaaaaaaaal!!!

And kaylin has scored putting Arsenal in the lead

After that goal the game resumed and arsenal lead was short lived as at the 15 minute

Roma got a chance to attack, as Roma full back send the ball to the center attacking midfielder in front of the box and he took a power shot from out wide

And Roma on the attack and Kelechi Nwakali got a pass and hits a power shot from 25 yards out

But the arsenal goal keeper jumped and managed to get a punch behind it and sent it out, giving Roma a corner

Keto makes an incredible save

Roma wing midfield made a short pass to the full back, who passed it back to him and sent a curling cross into the box

Mirko to Pellegrini and Pellegrini passes back but he sends it into the box

the Roma Striker jumped high and headed the ball into the net of the unsuspecting goal keeper who wasn't expecting a goal from such a close range

Marco goes for a diving header

The striker made a run and slid to perform the sliding celebration

Goooooaaaaal

What a goal from Marco that was absolutely spectacular
