At 3 a.m. on May 17, 2022, Beijing time, it was definitely not a good start to the day for Arsenal fans. Arsenal lost 0-2 in an away game against Newcastle. This defeat is almost catastrophic, because unless something unexpected happens, Arsenal will lose the qualification to enter the Champions League next season and be replaced by Tottenham. Judging from the entire game, it looked like a desperate attack, but in fact there was not even a decent shot on goal. Instead, the door was wide open. Looking at the game, Newcastle United , it was more like a "fight for four". Team.
It is worth mentioning that Arsenal originally had a bright future, but in the final stage of the league, the " Gunners " performance was equivalent to digging their own graves. They lost five of nine consecutive games, and they first lost 0- 2 lost to Liverpool , which is understandable. But from the 31st to the 33rd round, they lost to Crystal Palace , Brighton and Southampton. This was simply a "death" rhythm. And early this morning, they lost to Newcastle United again.
In these five games, even if Arsenal wins one or draws two, they will not be reduced to the current passive situation. Rather than saying that Tottenham performed well and overtook Arsenal, it is better to say that Arsenal eliminated themselves from the Champions League sequence. To a certain extent, Arsenal simply does not deserve to enter the Champions League.
I won’t say anything, but the competition in this game is really fierce. From this game, Newcastle can see that after a season of adjustments, this team is entering a good state. In this game, there are also three interesting tidbits. First of all, in the 27th minute, Wilson touched his face while fighting with the opponent. He happened to have a tooth with cavities and felt uncomfortable. He immediately went to the sidelines to treat the tooth. This is really "playing football and treating the tooth at the same time."
In the 38th minute, Kenyo Tomiyasu was injured and could not continue the game and was replaced by Cedric Suarez. The Japanese star's injury should be a thigh muscle strain. The problem is not big and should not affect Japan's squad in the World Cup.
In the 66th minute, Lacazette broke his scalp while fighting with his opponent, which stained the field with blood. He returned to the game after receiving treatment.
In the last round, Arsenal will face Everton at home, and Tottenham will challenge the relegated Norwich . Therefore, Arsenal can only rely on miracles to overtake Tottenham. Judging from the situation this season, Arsenal's offense is really not a matter of buying one or two forwards and attacking midfielders. Their offense has no routine at all. Their defense has been pretty good so far, but their offense relies on the players' flashes of inspiration. , this is a bit too far-fetched, including the head coach's ability to adapt on the spot, which has also been questioned by many fans and media. In fact, it is acceptable to enter the Euroleague this year.
