The match against Everton was like rain after a long drought. After the intense matches, Everton took the initiative to send a big gift to ease Arsenal's tension.
Van Persie and Vieira's goals in the remaining 30 minutes of the match made the final score 8: 0.
Arsenal's fans were in a frenzy for the team's wild victory.
Wenger took the initiative to shake hands with Moyes after the match. Moyes, who was out of his mind like a walking corpse, was comforted by Wenger before he left Highbury with a defeated look.
At the same time, at Old Trafford.
Mourinho was celebrating Chelsea's 3: 1 victory over Manchester United. He could not wait to ask his assistant after the match.
"What was the result of the match between Arsenal and Everton?"
The assistant stuttered and hesitated.
In fact, Mourinho's assistant had already received the results of Arsenal's match when the match was going on, but he did not tell Mourinho immediately.
What was the use of telling him? To disrupt the team's morale?
Mourinho saw his assistant's expression and immediately frowned. "Arsenal won again?"
The assistant nodded and replied, "8: 0."
"Oh, wh-what?!"
Mourinho's face was filled with shock.
He never thought that Everton, who was ranked fourth in the league, would be beaten to a pulp in Highbury!
Goddamn Everton!
Goddamn Moyes!
After Mourinho's shock, he was filled with boundless anger!
Originally, there was only a difference of three goals between him and Arsenal. After Chelsea defeated Manchester United in this match, the gap should have been shortened to one goal.
But Arsenal's 8: 0 victory over Everton directly widened the gap to a shocking nine goals!
With four matches left in the league, once neither Chelsea nor Arsenal made a mistake, Chelsea had to shorten the gap of nine goals. Mourinho knew that his Chelsea did not rely on offense to increase the goal difference, but on defense!
The gap of nine goals almost declared that unless Arsenal made a mistake and did not win the next four matches, Chelsea would not have any possibility of beating Arsenal in terms of goal difference!
Mourinho could not be blamed for being furious!
In his expectation, Everton, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool, Arsenal's opponents in the last five matches, would all have the opportunity to snipe Arsenal. Even if they could not snipe, they would not let Arsenal increase their advantage in goal difference. And if Chelsea could reduce the gap of one goal difference in every match against a weak team, then even if Chelsea had the same points as Arsenal in the end, he would still have a chance to overturn Arsenal!
But now, this idea was completely destroyed!
Everton simply made Mourinho hate them to the bone!
.....
Qin Xiong's season ended with only four matches in the league and one FA Cup final.
After he defeated Everton, he had a romantic dinner with Sylvia at a high-end restaurant in the city. Then, the next day, he personally sent Sylvia to the plane. In just over a week, Sylvia's company gave him enough comfort and satisfaction.
The moment he sent Sylvia away, his eyes were full of fighting spirit.
In the next match in the league, even if it had nothing to do with winning the league title, he had to give it his all!
A battle between mortal enemies.
Tottenham Hotspur visited Highbury in the 35th round of the Premier League.
The atmosphere of confrontation between the fans was particularly strong on the day of the match.
Arsenal appeared in the Highbury stadium in high spirits. The Gunners' fans put a lot of mental pressure on Tottenham Hotspur.
Martin Jol led Tottenham Hotspur and was crushed by Arsenal at White Hart Lane in his debut after taking over from Santini. At the end of the season, Tottenham Hotspur could be said to have no desire, but the entire Tottenham Hotspur team still harbored a strong desire for revenge.
They wanted to snipe Arsenal!
In the first half of the season, Tottenham Hotspur lost the game by a large margin in an open and aggressive manner. They would not use the bus in this game, but they had to pay attention to defense.
Their thinking was simple. Even if they could not defeat Arsenal, they had to make Arsenal lose points with a draw!
The game was very close from the start.
The Tottenham Hotspur players fought very hard.
In the 11th minute of the game, something that made the Gunners fans angry and worried happened!
Henry was knocked to the ground by Ledley King when he broke through in front of the penalty area. Henry did not stand up again!
Arsenal's main lineup was slightly thin. Simply put, the gap in strength between the main players and the substitutes was too big. The competition in this season's league was extremely cruel. Even though Wenger knew that he had to rotate, he had to be careful. As a result, many of the main players were in very bad physical condition at the end of the season, which made their physical condition seem a little fragile.
Now, Henry was down!
In the Highbury stands, the Arsenal fans watched in disbelief as Henry was helped off the field by the team doctor. Henry's injury looked serious. Wenger flew into a rage and protested the referee's decision to the fourth official. He believed that the Tottenham Hotspur player's actions should be given a red card!
Something even worse happened 14 minutes later!
Pires was knocked out of the sideline by Tariq when he broke through on the flank. After that, Pires did not return to the field!
The Arsenal fans were furious. Loud boos enveloped the sky above Highbury.
The Tottenham Hotspur fans were gloating!
There were even many Tottenham Hotspur fans who cheered ferociously!
Cripple your two main players!
Let's see how you can win the championship!
This was the cruel and intense north London derby!
Wenger was asked to go to the stands by the referee for continuously protesting the referee's lenient decisions.
Bergkamp had come on as a substitute for Henry.
Now that Pires was also going to leave the field due to an injury, Wenger shouted to his assistant before going to the stands.
"Let Cesc come on!"
Originally, if he wanted to switch players, he would either use Reyes or Robin van Persie. However, in the final stages of the season, Wenger's attitude towards these two players changed. He did not dare to play Reyes in a tough battle!
It was conceivable that when Reyes came on, he would most likely have to surrender his knees in the face of Tottenham Hotspur's ferocious beast-like attacks.
As for Robin van Persie, it was a matter of position. Wenger wanted to turn Robin van Persie into the next Henry and not a pure winger.
Fàbregas was ordered to come on in the face of danger. He himself was confused.
What position would he play when he came on?
Fortunately, Qin Xiong solved his problem for him. Qin Xiong took the initiative to play Pires' winger position and gave the attacking midfielder position to Fàbregas.
Wenger stood in the stands with his arms crossed and a serious expression on his face. He had no doubts about Qin Xiong's ability to read the game and adapt on the spot.
Sure enough, as he expected, Qin Xiong took the initiative to pull the sides so that Arsenal's offensive and defensive system would not be chaotic.
The first player to explode on the field was Vieira.
Arsenal's fiery captain rampaged in the midfield and backfield, knocking down Defoe and Carrick one after another. The referee wanted to be impartial. Plus, this was Highbury, so he naturally could not be too harsh on Arsenal. Moreover, Arsenal had two main players injured and left the field, so they received some psychological sympathy.
Vieira's fiery momentum allowed Arsenal to regain the advantage in their confrontational mood, but the fans in the stands were still full of worry.
Arsenal did not want a draw!
They had to win, they had to win!
