"Tsk... they really couldn't hold on for even a little bit, that's insane."
Seeing his team concede right after he activated his cheat, Fly was speechless.
This match was already very dangerous. Barcelona was only one goal away from a large-scale comeback.
Fly knew very well that he had to help the team score a goal back immediately. Only then could he stop Barcelona's arrogant momentum.
"Jack Wilshere, pass the ball forward quickly later, OK?"
Since the team's main player had spoken, Wilshere naturally wouldn't refuse...
64th minute of the match.
Messi's latest attempt to break through on the wing was finally tackled by Clichy, who then carried the ball forward along the empty wing corridor behind Messi.
Just past the halfway line, Clichy passed the ball to Fabregas, who was making a central run.
Cesc Fàbregas received the ball with a touch and turn, getting past Xavi's defense, then sent a through ball straight into the center, about 35 meters from the goal.
Wilshere, who was pushing forward, took two steps with the ball after receiving it, faking a long shot.
Busquets, who was fooled by him, immediately turned to block, and the Englishman then immediately sent a through ball to the edge of the left side of the penalty area.
With Gods Eye, Fly was almost "there as soon as the ball was there", bursting forward and charging into the penalty area.
Facing Piqué, who had been sticking close to him, Fly faked a dribble towards the byline, tricking his opponent into shifting his weight, and then immediately cut inside horizontally.
After creating space, Fly took a curling shot before Abidal could close him down.
With this curling shot, Fly aimed directly for the bottom right corner of the goal.
Because in his vision, the red line with the highest value pointed directly to the bottom right corner of the goal.
A 72% scoring rate meant Fly didn't need to hesitate at all; he just had to shoot...
The ball skimmed across the grass in a beautiful arc. Valdés in the Barcelona goal, despite his best efforts, could only watch helplessly as the ball went past his fingertips and nestled into the bottom right corner of the net.
Fly scored his first goal of the match, which was also Arsenal's third goal.
3:4, Arsenal was temporarily trailing by one goal.
The aggregate score over two legs was now 9:7, with Barcelona still trailing by two goals.
Furthermore, Fly's goal was extraordinary because it was Arsenal's third goal of the match.
This meant that from now on, according to the away goal rule, Arsenal had equalized the three goals Barcelona scored at Emirates Stadium.
Even if Barcelona scored two more goals, they could only just manage to draw with Arsenal.
They couldn't directly eliminate Arsenal through the away goal rule like with scores of 4:1 or 5:2.
On the contrary, if Arsenal could score one more goal, then Barcelona would be in trouble...
Because 4 away goals are greater than 3 away goals, meaning if Arsenal scored one more goal at Camp Nou, Barcelona would need to score two goals to compensate.
In other words, if Arsenal scored their fourth goal at Camp Nou, then Barcelona would have to score 8 goals in this match to successfully advance!
Because even if the score of this match was 7:4, Arsenal could still eliminate Barcelona due to scoring more away goals.
This was also why the Barcelona fans in the stadium fell silent when Fly scored Arsenal's third goal of the match...
Because these fans knew very well that Barcelona was about to face big trouble.
"GOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!"
"Number 13, Fly Adams!!!"
"Oh my god... I was just saying Fly needed to step up, and who would have thought this super striker would turn around and actually step up to score a goal for Arsenal."
"Although I've been surprised many times before, seeing this scene, I still have to say, Fly never disappoints!"
"4:3, Barcelona is once again two goals behind Arsenal."
"However, unlike just now, even if Barcelona scores two goals now, they can only drag Arsenal into extra time."
"Furthermore, if Arsenal scores one more goal, then Barcelona will need to score four goals to achieve a comeback."
"Now is the real test for Barcelona and Guardiola..."
"What they should be thinking about most now is how to score two goals while also preventing Arsenal from scoring another."
"Otherwise, once Arsenal's goal count reaches 4, I'm afraid Barcelona will be in a lot of trouble this match..."
"Score 8 goals against Arsenal at Camp Nou?"
"Please, even if Arsenal's defense is considered a weakness, that's compared to their own midfield and attack. It doesn't mean Arsenal has no defense at all."
"At least the situation of being thrashed by Barcelona for 8 goals like a La Liga relegation team basically won't happen to Arsenal."
"Barcelona's safest approach now is to score two goals, limit Arsenal's goals to 3, and drag the match into extra time."
"Otherwise, it's hard for me to imagine how Barcelona could possibly score 8 goals against Arsenal..."
In fact, Martin Tyler hit the nail on the head.
This is exactly what Guardiola on the sidelines was most worried about...
Don't look at how fierce Barcelona's attack is now; as long as they can't prevent Arsenal from scoring, no matter how many goals Barcelona scores upfront, it's useless...
After all, if Arsenal scores one more goal, Barcelona needs to score two to compensate.
Even if Guardiola was extremely confident in the current Barcelona team, he wouldn't be crazy enough to think they could score 8 goals against a strong team.
Are they really treating Arsenal's defense like a sieve?
Moreover, Barcelona's defense itself isn't considered world-class.
Facing a goal-scoring monster like Fly, they are basically bound to be exposed.
"Sigh... the next part of the match will be difficult."
Glancing at the bench behind him, Guardiola fell into silence...
To be fair, Barcelona's bench doesn't have any outstanding players.
At least, to solve the current predicament, he couldn't find a single person...
The 11 players on the pitch for Barcelona were already their strongest lineup.
As for the substitutes... Guardiola's requirements for the team's tactical level at this stage were simply too high.
Average players simply didn't meet the standard!
Even if Fabregas from his previous life returned to Barcelona, he would rarely perform well as a substitute.
Let alone substitute players who weren't even stars?
In contrast, Wenger, standing about ten meters away from him, was calmly watching with his arms crossed.
Fly's goal came at the perfect time, and the situation on the field was instantly reversed because of this goal.
Originally, it was a do-or-die situation where Barcelona could eliminate Arsenal by scoring one more goal.
Now, it was a minimum-requirement situation where Barcelona could only force extra time even if they scored two goals.
The mentality of the Arsenal players on the field would undergo a drastic change...
What Wenger needed to do now was just silently observe the match, preferably doing nothing, lest a chain reaction cause Arsenal's situation on the field to take a turn for the worse.
66th minute of the match.
Messi's attempt at a long shot from outside the penalty area was saved by Fabianski.
Seeing his shot didn't pose a threat, the Argentinian uncharacteristically spat on the grass.
Clearly, the current situation was making even the steady Messi feel a bit irritable...
68th minute of the match.
During a switch of play on the wing by Barcelona, Fly anticipated it with Gods Eye. The super genius immediately ran to the ball's landing spot to contest an aerial duel with Alves.
Without a doubt, just like traditional Brazilian players, Alves' aerial ability was poor, and Fly easily gained control of the ball.
However, the Brazilian right-back didn't give up and immediately fouled Fly after landing, trying to stop him from carrying the ball forward.
Using Gods Eye, Fly immediately dodged his body the moment Alves made the fouling motion, avoiding Alves' surprise attack.
He then poked the ball forward with his toe into the empty space in front and took off running.
"Damn it... this guy actually anticipated me! Damn!"
Since there was no one behind Alves, he used the tactical foul to prevent this attack, which had a high potential to be a major threat.
But Fly's "quick thinking" still rendered the Brazilian's efforts useless...
Watching Fly sprint ahead of him, Alves, even using all his might, could only watch as the distance between them grew wider and wider.
Although the Brazilian full-back was a right-back known for his speed, he couldn't outrun the man he was facing, who was one of the top three fastest men on Earth.
To put it bluntly, even if Bolt and Gay were possessed by him, they wouldn't be able to catch up to Fly, who had already gotten a head start, let alone Alves, a football player?
The moment Fly evaded Alves' foul and burst forward with the ball, the Barcelona fans in the stadium started booing loudly.
The spectators in the stands, due to their elevated view, could see very clearly that Fly's sudden counter-pressing directly resulted in him charging into the penalty area without encountering any defensive players.
Even Piqué, who was closer to the goal, was unable to effectively interfere with Fly's shot due to the vast difference in speed between him and Fly...
In other words, Fly had created a "de facto" one-on-one situation.
However, because he charged into the penalty area from the wing, the shooting angle was relatively narrow.
Other than that, it was basically a one-on-one.
Facing such a one-on-one, Valdés in front of the goal was completely stunned...
No, big brother, wasn't the ball just at our feet?
Now, in the blink of an eye, the opponent has charged directly into the penalty area with the ball and is preparing for a one-on-one?
Valdés desperately wanted to yell at Barcelona's defense and ask them what the heck they were doing!
But he didn't have the time now...
The imminent one-on-one shot was what he had to deal with first.
As a Guardiola-style goalkeeper, Valdés was undoubtedly a goalkeeper who liked to rush out.
After all, in Guardiola's tactical system, the goalkeeper must expand their defensive area as much as possible and act as a "defender."
This is why Valdés now, and Neuer and Ederson in the future, are goalkeepers who like to rush out.
Seeing Valdés come out, several red lines immediately flashed before Fly's eyes.
Direct shots with scoring rates of 40%, pushes with 48%, and chips with 80%.
Of course, there was also the option of dribbling past the goalkeeper before shooting, which had a 99% scoring rate and was basically foolproof.
But Gods Eye also indicated that the success rate of dribbling past the goalkeeper was only 72%. Multiplying the two meant the overall scoring rate was only 71%, which was lower than a direct chip shot.
Facing these options, Fly didn't hesitate too much and directly replicated Messi's signature one-on-one chip shot.
After Valdés had moved about 5 meters from the goal, Fly used the tip of his foot to lift the ball.
The ball sailed through the air in a beautiful arc, its height exactly five centimeters higher than Valdés' fingertips at his maximum jump.
This close distance became a situation of utter despair for Valdés.
After clearing Valdés' fingertips, the ball dropped into the goal like a falling leaf...
4:4, Fly completed his brace, helping Arsenal equalize the score.
The aggregate score over two legs was now 10:7. Due to the away goal rule, Barcelona still needed to score four goals to achieve a comeback.
For a moment, Camp Nou fell completely silent...
