Arsenal challenged Tottenham Hotspur away, and this derby battle was even more exciting than a Hollywood blockbuster, especially the own goal that appeared in the first 15 minutes, which was simply a "visitor"!
Saka, this young man, is really incredible. As soon as the corner kick was taken, he sent the ball to the goal with precision like a director. Hojbjerg, the unlucky bastard, was bent on a header to clear the siege, but as a result, he accidentally became the "savior" of his own goal. This own goal is even funnier than a comedy, and Arsenal fans are probably happy.
But Tottenham aren't easy to mess with. They immediately counter-attacked, with Romero coming close to levelling with two headers. This Tottenham is really a bit "wolf", and they just refuse to admit defeat.
Just when everyone thought that the game was going to go into a stalemate, Van der Ven's goal was blown out of action. This time, Tottenham fans exploded and accused the referee of being "blind". However, I can't complain about the referee in this matter, after all, offside is offside, and rules are rules.
The plot that follows is even more bizarre. Kulusevski made a close contact with Trossard in the box before falling to the ground in pain. This discerning person knew at a glance that it was a penalty, but what about the referee? He was like a blind man, and he didn't see it. Well, Arsenal seized the opportunity, Havertz crossed diagonally, Saka easily scored, and the score instantly became 2-0.
Tottenham fans couldn't sit still. They all said: "This is obviously a penalty, why didn't the referee blow it?", while the Arsenal fans were proud: "Haha, this is luck! No matter how hard you try at Tottenham, it's useless!"
It's kind of interesting to say. Bukayo Saka has scored in both legs against Tottenham this season, the first Englishman to do so since Ian Wright in 1993/94!
But then again, this Saka's goal is really a bit controversial. Judging from the slow-motion replay, Kulusevski did make physical contact with Trossard in the box, and it looked quite serious. But what about the referee? He just didn't blow it. This matter, to put it bluntly, is a "Rashomon", and no one can tell.
We don't have to dwell too much on these details. Besides, the result of this game has already come out, Arsenal beat Tottenham 2-0, and that's the truth.
In football, the referee's decision can often determine the direction of the game. Sometimes a seemingly trivial decision can change the situation of the whole game. We have to respect the referee's decision and understand the emotions of the fans. After all, football is more than just a game.
I would like to say that this Arsenal vs Tottenham match, although full of controversy and topicality, also showed the charm and passion of football. Whether it is the fighting spirit of the players or the enthusiastic support of the fans, we feel the unique charm of this sport. Hopefully, we will see more of these races in the future!
As for the controversial penalty in this game, I personally think it's really hard to say. After all, the decision in football is often affected by many factors, including the referee's perspective, experience, emotions, and so on. We can't just blame the referee or the players. After all, they are human beings, and there will be times when they make mistakes.
As fans, we all have our own positions and opinions. Some felt that Arsenal's goal was a stroke of luck, while others felt that Tottenham deserved a penalty. That's true, because football is a feast of controversy and topicality in itself.
I think we should focus more on the performance of the players and the quality of the game itself. After all, they are the real protagonists of this game. And this Arsenal vs Tottenham match, whether in terms of the fighting spirit of the players or the intensity of the game, is a classic battle worth watching again and again.
Let's put aside the controversy and topicality and enjoy the wonderful moments of this game!
