Chapter 722 - 133: 17-Second Wonder Goal! Incredible Comeback! Watch Out, Wang Shuo Is Here! We Witnessed a Miracle

"Good lord, where did he come from?"

"He was attacking in the front court just a moment ago, and now he’s tracked all the way back to just outside his own penalty area!"

When Yakubu drove the ball to the edge of the penalty area, Wang Shuo had already caught up, running neck and neck with him.

At this moment, the entire stadium erupted in gasps. Whether it was Blackburn fans or Gunners fans, everyone screamed in sheer disbelief.

Wang Shuo stuck closely to Yakubu as they surged into the penalty box, hounding him relentlessly and refusing to yield an inch. Everyone could see him giving it his all. His usually handsome face contorted with fierce determination, yet his mind remained entirely composed, keeping a close eye on Yakubu’s every movement.

The moment the Nigerian forward slowed down to adjust and prepare for a shot, Wang Shuo seized the opportunity and decisively slid in for a tackle. His judgment was impeccably precise, and his tackling motion was sharp and clean!

The ball was swept away. Tripped by Wang Shuo, Yakubu tumbled to the ground inside the penalty area.

Szczeny didn’t care about anything else. He charged out of the goal and scooped the football firmly into his arms.

By this point, everyone in the stadium was left dumbfounded!

"My God, Wang Shuo tracked back a full sixty meters, chasing all the way to his own penalty box to make a tackle and destroy a crucial one-on-one chance for the opposition!

"He fell inside his own penalty area. Is he injured?"

Under the astonished gazes of the Gunners, as Szczeny climbed up from the muddy pitch clutching the football, Wang Shuo quickly scrambled to his feet as well, completely ignoring the mud and grass clippings clinging to his body.

"Give me the ball!" he roared at Szczeny.

Almost on instinct, Szczeny threw the ball out, tossing it right in front of Wang Shuo. Using the inside of his right foot, Wang Shuo swept the ball forward. After setting it up in his path, he immediately accelerated after it. Beating the approaching defenders, he kicked it to Subotic.

"Neven!"

"Here!" Subotic chased it down and passed the ball right back into Wang Shuo’s sprinting path.

Without stopping to control it, Wang Shuo met the ball in stride and knocked it forward to Alexandre Song. Alexandre Song trapped the ball, took a step forward, and passed it back ahead of Wang Shuo.

Accelerating to catch up to the ball, Wang Shuo charged straight across the halfway line.

"A quick counterattack by Arsenal!

"Wang Shuo is still carrying the ball.

"He passes it to De Bruyne.

"A through ball behind the defense!

"Another beautiful give-and-go!"

Sprinting desperately all the way, Wang Shuo charged forward at top speed. In a flash, he split Blackburn’s two center-backs, Dann and Samba. Catching up to De Bruyne’s pass, he surged into the penalty area.

No one had expected this. Just a moment ago, Blackburn was threatening Arsenal’s net with a one-on-one chance. Now, Wang Shuo was bearing down on Blackburn’s goal in a one-on-one of his own.

England international goalkeeper Robinson opted to abandon his goal and charge out. He had only made it halfway when he saw Wang Shuo adjust with a few quick, stuttering steps before firing a direct volley with his right foot. The football zipped past Robinson at blinding speed, leaving the England goalkeeper no time to even dive for a save.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!

"It’s in!!!

"In the eighty-sixth minute, Arsenal successfully scores a goal!

"Three to four!

"My God, Wang Shuo has scored a wildly crucial goal for the Gunners!

"This is absolutely an unbelievable goal for everyone!

"Wang Shuo tracked back sixty meters to successfully steal the ball from Yakubu’s one-on-one chance, then carried it all the way down the pitch to orchestrate a counterattack. Meeting De Bruyne’s through ball, he breached Blackburn’s goal single-handedly!

"Arsenal still has a chance!

"At this very moment, Wang Shuo is like a veritable God of War!"

After scoring, Wang Shuo scooped up the football once more and sprinted to the center circle. Placing the ball on the kickoff spot, he immediately beckoned all his teammates over.

"Did you see that? We still have a chance!

"We can still score!

"Don’t give up!"

The Arsenal players were visibly infected by Wang Shuo’s passionate roar. The goal just now, in particular, had brought them an overwhelming sense of shock and exhilaration. It reminded them of their previous battle against Manchester United.

Wasn’t it the exact same? When playing against Manchester United, they had managed to claw their way back from 1-5 to 4-5. Facing Blackburn—a team vastly inferior to Manchester United—what couldn’t Arsenal accomplish?

More and more players’ eyes began to light up! They gathered tightly around Wang Shuo, their gazes gradually turning resolute. Their previously dull and lifeless eyes began to regain their color.

On the sidelines, Wenger was the first to sense this shift within the team. Thrilled, he became visibly agitated, shouting from the touchline for everyone to push forward and attack.

"We can score again!

"We’re only one goal away from equalizing!"

When Blackburn restarted the match with the kickoff, the Arsenal players, led by Wang Shuo, began pressing forward frantically. Wang Shuo, in particular, chased the Blackburn players like a madman, fighting fiercely for the ball.

"Good heavens, the match is almost at the ninety-minute mark! Where is Wang Shuo getting the stamina to support such frantic running?

"What kind of staggering willpower does it take to unleash such potential?

"We can see that the Blackburn players are actually quite exhausted, barely able to run anymore.

"But Wang Shuo and quite a few Arsenal players are still sprinting.

"Their morale is steadily recovering.

"Just look at this instance!

"Nzonzi has the ball.

"Wang Shuo rushes over to challenge for it, and the two collide!

"But Wang Shuo comes away with the ball!

"A beautiful front-court steal!"
