Chapter 210 - Chapter 209 The referee took action, is AC Milan really going to make a comeback?

"hanger TV Station, hanger TV Station, hello to the audience in front of the TV. Welcome to the second leg of the 2010-2011 Champions League Round of 16. The two teams facing off in this match are the home team Arsenal and the visiting Rossoneri, AC Milan."

"I am your old friend Dulin, and sitting next to me is Director Side character."

"Hello everyone, I am Side character."

"Alright, Director, we all know that in the first leg of this series, Arsenal defeated AC Milan 4-2 at San Siro, gaining the upper hand."

"Now that we are at Arsenal's home ground, Director, what do you think is the probability of Arsenal advancing?"

Side character heard the words and answered without hesitation:

"I think it's one hundred percent. The probability of AC Milan completing a comeback away from home is no more than one percent."

Hearing this, Dulin was a little surprised, thinking that Side character was too arbitrary.

But he didn't say anything, and continued to ask:

"Oh? So, Director, why are you so confident that Arsenal can maintain their current lead?"

Side character shook his head and corrected: "No, no, no... I'm not confident that Arsenal can maintain their current lead, but rather that Arsenal will complete a home and away double kill against AC Milan."

"We all know that the current Arsenal at home can kill gods and destroy Buddhas."

"There is no team on earth that can win by at least two goals at the home ground of such an Arsenal..."

"I don't mean to disrespect AC Milan. In fact, I am also a Serie A fan, and I also like AC Milan."

"But they are facing an opponent that is simply too terrifying today. Arsenal, who have been invincible in the Premier League and Champions League this season, are stronger than this struggling AC Milan."

"Arsenal just won their first trophy in 6 years a few days ago, and the team's morale is at its peak. In this situation, I don't see any hope for AC Milan to make a comeback..."

Dulin didn't say whether he agreed or not, just nodded and said:

"Well... Director has a point. Alright, let's take a look at the starting lineups for both teams."

"The home team Arsenal is fielding a 442 formation in this match."

"Goalkeeper: Szczęsny."

"Defenders: Sagna, Varane, Koscielny, Clichy."

"Midfielders: Alexandre Song, Wilshere, Fabregas, Nasri."

"Forwards: Van Persie, Fly."

"The away team AC Milan is fielding a 433 formation in this match."

"Goalkeeper: Abbiati."

"Defenders: Abate, Thiago Silva, Nesta, Yang Kulovski."

"Midfielders: Seedorf, Mathieu Flamini, Kevin-Prince Boateng."

"Forwards: Robinho, Ibrahimović, Pato."

"It is worth mentioning that Kevin-Prince Boateng, who AC Milan is fielding in this match, is the older brother of Arsenal's new signing Jerome Boateng."

"However, these brothers play for different countries. Kevin-Prince Boateng plays for Ghana, while Jerome Boateng plays for Germany."

"However, it is regrettable that due to his participation in the Europa League on behalf of Manchester City in the first half of the season, according to the rules, his younger brother Jerome Boateng will not be able to play for Arsenal in the Champions League this season, so we will not be able to see these brothers compete on the same field, which is undoubtedly a pity."

"Alright, the match has started, let's get into the game..."

Since this match was played at home, and Arsenal had a huge advantage in the first leg.

So there were especially many fans who came to the scene to support Arsenal in this match...

After all, many fans wanted to witness their home team advance to the Champions League quarterfinals with their own eyes.

Ibrahimović looked at the sea of Arsenal fans celebrating wildly around him, his face extremely gloomy.

He never expected that AC Milan hadn't been eliminated yet... How could these people start talking about the quarterfinals already?

Did they ask for his god's opinion?

Ibrahimović swore that he would definitely crush Arsenal in this match.

What if they were two goals down at home?

It's not like there's no hope of a comeback!

Today, he, Ibrahimović, will slap everyone in the face and create hope!

....

After the match started, the AC Milan players quickly entered a desperate struggle.

They were already two goals down, and the reality forced them to fight desperately!

Fighting might not lead to a comeback, but if they didn't fight, their Champions League journey this season would definitely end here...

In the 5th minute of the match.

Seedorf pushed a player in the midfield, and Nasri was knocked two meters away, but the Main Referee turned a blind eye and ignored it.

In the 7th minute of the match.

During a sprint, Fly was knocked off the field by Yang Kulovski, that mad dog. The Main Referee signaled a normal challenge, and the match continued.

In the 10th minute of the match.

Pato tripped Alexandre Song in the front field, then dribbled the ball and took a powerful shot, which was saved by Szczęsny.

As for Pato's foul, the Main Referee only gave a verbal warning.

In less than 10 minutes from the start, AC Milan frequently committed malicious fouls, and the Main Referee's blind behavior directly caused wild boos from the fans at the scene.

The AC Milan players were very calm, completely unaffected, and instead continued to play their offense in a disciplined manner.

For the experienced AC Milan players, the consecutive fouls at the start had already allowed them to test that the referee's whistle was leaning towards them today.

Since that was the case... they naturally had to use this advantage to deliver a heavy blow to Arsenal!

"CNM... damn UEFA, they were waiting for me here!"

Fly also noticed that the Main Referee was not right today, all 50-50 calls were given to AC Milan.

Thinking of this, how could Fly not know that those sons of bitches at UEFA had personally intervened in the match again?

Although Fly had long expected that this season's Champions League would not be smooth sailing.

But he never expected that UEFA would intervene so early.

He thought they would wait until Arsenal played Barcelona or Real Madrid before intervening in the match.

But it seems now... he had thought too highly of UEFA.

"If Arsenal weren't leading by two goals now, I would have already activated those cheats."

Fly thought that since the lead in this match was still quite large, there was no need to use his trump cards in advance. Wouldn't it be better to save them for later against Real Madrid and Barcelona?

But soon, Fly threw this idea out of his mind.

Because he found that this match, under the referee's intervention, had already deviated somewhat from his original trajectory...

In the 20th minute of the match.

Ibrahimović received a cross from Kevin-Prince Boateng, jumped high, and delivered a powerful header. The football, like a cannonball, smashed into Arsenal's goal.

AC Milan took the lead 1-0 at the Emirates Stadium, and the aggregate score is currently 3-4, only one goal behind Arsenal.

If you count the away goals, AC Milan still needs two goals to complete the comeback.

For a time, the suspense of the entire series returned...

After scoring the first goal of the match, Ibrahimović immediately ran to the sideline and made the "god" celebration towards tens of thousands of Arsenal fans.

"Boo boo——"

This action naturally received a lot of boos.

But Ibrahimović made a helpless expression, pointed to his ear, indicating that he couldn't hear and to be louder.

This kind of provocative request naturally angered the Arsenal fans at the scene.

For a time, many Arsenal fans were saying various "Fxxk" to Ibrahimović.

"GOOOOOOOOOAL!!!"

"Number 11, Zlatan Ibrahimović Ibrahimović!!!"

"I never expected that the first goalscorer would be Ibrahimović."

"Undeniably, the Swede's performance in past knockout matches has not been outstanding."

"But in this series, he has already scored two goals, second only to Fly!"

"It seems this self-proclaimed god from Northern Europe also wants to prove himself on the Champions League stage..."

"With this goal scored, AC Milan is 3-4 behind Arsenal on aggregate, currently trailing by one goal."

"Of course, if calculated according to the away goal rule, AC Milan is still two goals behind Arsenal. Can they do it?"

When Fly saw Ibrahimović's arrogant celebration, a feeling of displeasure couldn't help but rise in his heart.

Didn't he know who the boss of the Emirates Stadium was?

To be so wild here, what audacity!

Fly swore that even if the Main Referee put on an AC Milan jersey in this match, he would still crush them. Even Jesus wouldn't be able to stop him...

In the 26th minute of the match.

Mathieu Flamini and Fabregas both fell to the ground while competing for the ball, and the Main Referee once again awarded AC Milan a free kick in the front field.

This decision once again caused boos from the fans at the scene.

The Swede god stood in front of the penalty spot, facing the wall formed by Arsenal, took a deep breath, and made a slight adjustment.

After hearing the Main Referee blow the whistle to start the kick, Ibrahimović took a slightly curved falling leaf kick, the ball barely cleared the wall, and flew straight towards the upper right corner of the goal.

At the crucial moment, Szczęsny stretched his body to the limit, touched this extremely threatening free kick, causing it to hit the underside of the crossbar and not Fly directly into the goal.

Then, facing Pato's follow-up shot, Szczęsny quickly got up and made a second save.

Finally, Pato's follow-up shot was blocked out of the baseline by Szczęsny, and Arsenal defended this dangerous attack without any major issues.

But even at this point, it was clear to see that AC Milan had a tendency to gain momentum.

If they continued to play like this, Arsenal might really be overturned at home.

Could it be that the "impossible comeback" that the media collectively believed before the match was actually going to happen?

For a time, many fans who heard the news also flocked to the live broadcast room of this match, wanting to witness whether AC Milan could complete this incredible comeback.

And Fly, could he stand up and save the team when they were in trouble.
