In the second half, the two teams switched sides and fought again.
Real Madrid's momentum in the second half was very fast, and the alien Ronaldo showed signs of recovery. In the 48th minute of the game, Ronaldo did not break through into the penalty area after passing Senderos outside. It seemed that he had gradually lost confidence in his current big-bellied state. His ability to get rid of the ball in a small space was still world-class, but his breakthrough success rate had begun to decline since his injury in 2000, which could not be separated from the factor of him taking the initiative to transform.
He directly shot a low shot from outside the penalty area, and Lehmann was well prepared. He threw himself to the ground and pressed the ball in front of the goal line, successfully protecting the city gate from being lost.
In the 55th minute, Pires lost the ball in a pincer attack by Gravesen and Cissinho in the front field. Real Madrid quickly instigated a counterattack. Beckham sent a diagonal pass from the right side just past the midfield. Zidane did not stop the ball and sent a diagonal pass into the middle in front of the penalty area. Real Madrid's counterattack could also play an extraordinary lightning attack.
Ronaldo took the ball with his back facing the front of the penalty area. Without the space to turn around, he passed the ball diagonally to the feet of Robinho, who cut inside from the flank again. Robinho did not have much space to shoot. After he stopped the ball, he intended to dribble two steps by himself to get a better angle and finish the shot.
It was these two extra steps that allowed Eboue to stick to him and cut the space between him and the football through his personal physical advantage, successfully blocking the football at Robinho's feet.
At this time, Real Madrid began to realize that Robinho's play in the game was limited by space.
For a technical dribbling player, Robinho did not have a physical advantage. He needed space to get the vision and angle to shoot or pass the ball. When he was limited in space, his play would be more affected.
Real Madrid had no choice but to let Raúl, who had a minor injury, warm up on the sidelines and get ready to play at any time.
Just as the Bernabéu fans saw the team start to play better, they were looking forward to the team being able to complete a comeback in the second half.
However, what happened in the 59th minute of the game made all the Real Madrid fans' hearts jump to their throats.
Guti lost the ball in the attack in the front field!
After successfully intercepting the ball, Silva directly passed the ball to Qin Xiong in the front field.
Qin Xiong ran forward along the rolling trajectory of the football and kicked the ball forward with his left foot. At this time, Zidane rushed from behind diagonally, intending to intercept the ball in front of Qin Xiong. Qin Xiong deliberately ran one more step forward, and then used his left foot to kick the ball diagonally from behind to the front right when Zidane rushed to the front.
Qin Xiong and Zidane passed each other and successfully got rid of Zidane's entanglement.
Just as he passed Zidane, he raised his head to observe the situation in front of him. Then, he directly used the outer instep of his right foot to deliver a straight overhead kick!
At this time, Pires was running an inward-cut route. Qin Xiong's pass also seemed to be passing to Pires' inward-cut route.
Ramos immediately ran to Pires' side, ready to pincer Pires with Cicinho.
But after Ramos took two steps forward, he was stunned to find that the football was flying towards him with an incomparably strong internal spin. A second ago, the football was still flying towards the line where Pirès cut inside. But now, looking at it again, the ball with an obvious internal spin was flying towards the middle of the penalty area!
Ramos immediately braked and wanted to turn back to his original defensive zone, but his body swayed in a hurry and he almost fell to the ground.
He bent down and supported himself with one hand on the ground to stabilize his body's center of gravity. At the same time, he looked up again and the football just happened to fly from his front to his back.
Turning his head to look at the situation in the middle of the penalty area, Ramos was shocked!
Messiah was not by Henry's side!
Of course, Henry would read Qin Xiong's intention of passing the ball faster than the Real Madrid players.
Before Messiah could react, Henry had already started.
At this moment, Henry easily stopped the ball with his right foot in the middle of the penalty area, and then took a step to the left so that his right leg could be raised to prepare for the shot.
Henry's gaze was firm as he stared at Casillas, while his peripheral vision covered the entire goal.
Casillas could no longer leave the goal. He had to react to the save the moment Henry shot.
Henry was extremely confident in his heart as he swung his leg to complete the shot!
Saint Casillas! Sorry!
This is not a fair duel, but this time, I won!
Boom!
Casillas predicted the direction of the football's flight, but at the same time his body stretched out and flew out, the football flew into the top left corner of the goal like a meteor in the blink of an eye!
Casillas stood up after the failed save, with a helpless expression on his face as he spread his hands in protest at the rear defensive line.
What kind of f * * king defensive line is this!
"Wow! Henry received Qin Xiong and broke through Casillas's ten fingers after a wonderful pass over the top! Arsenal is leading 2: 0 in the away game!
A wonderful goal. Although the process of the goal was simple, Qin Xiong rubbed his foot in the middle of the front field and made a straight pass with an inward spin, which interfered with Ramos' prediction. God, looking at Ramos' running position, he was wrong from the start. If he stood in the same place, he would have had a chance to block the ball, but he moved in the wrong direction and almost fell to the ground after discovering his wrong prediction.
Messiah was completely in a daze. He did not cause any interference to Henry. Henry and Qin Xiong's tacit cooperation was probably unmatched by any other combination in European football today.
Henry steadily stopped the ball and had time to adjust his shooting position. How could Henry miss such an opportunity?
He could not blame Casillas. No other goalkeeper could do anything about this goal!
Real Madrid is two goals behind at the Bernabéu. What should they do? "
The moment Henry scored, Arsenal's substitutes' bench was in a frenzy. There were also Arsenal fans who traveled thousands of miles to the Bernabéu to support the team. They shouted crazily and kept waving their arms to show Arsenal's "power."
Henry ran to the sidelines with a smile and turned his head to wave to Qin Xiong. After Qin Xiong ran to his side, Henry hugged Qin Xiong's shoulder and shouted, "Come, let's celebrate in this fantastic stadium!"
The two kings of the Arsenal ran together on the sidelines and the excited smiles on their faces made every Bernabéu fan deeply envious.
Henry and Qin Xiong were both Florentino's targets in building the team!
But Real Madrid did not bring them to the Bernabéu. Now, the two of them joined forces to celebrate Arsenal's goal here, as if they were soaring in this stadium!
The Real Madrid players stood in the same place and felt a little out of their wits.
They looked at Qin Xiong and Henry with a trace of fear in their eyes!
How should the game be played?
How could this paper-thin rear defensive line withstand the impact of the two kings of Arsenal?
