The first trophy of Surry's career! And Emery is found without the Champions League – Eurocup News – Football

Before the match, "Chelsea" – "Arsenal" was only talking about football. The final of the Europa League has covered the flood of new "dirty". In England, we went to UEFA for choosing Baku as the city of the decisive match. The teams refused most of the tickets that were awarded to them and even Jürgen Klopp talked about a subject on which he had nothing to do. In Azerbaijan, Heinrich Mkhitaryan was criticized for refusing to take part in the final: the midfielder would have been banned from wearing the Armenian flag in case of victory. Enraged by the conflict between David Luis and Gonzalo Higuain, Maurizio Surry, during a pre-match training session, beat his own cap. Meanwhile, Juventus president, Andrea Angielli, flew to Sarry, who settled in the same hotel as Chelsea, and Unai Emery, director of Arsenal, was nominated candidate for the Barcelona Head Coach. Finally, supporters of the two clubs in London fought in Baku, injuring a Russian citizen.

Football itself was not as bright in the first half as news about Chelsea and Arsenal. If you are not a fan of tactical games and scores 0-0, then you have not enjoyed the show. In general, the finals of the European League are different, for example, Sevilla Emery scored three goals for Dnipro and Liverpool. However, this time, the impression was that the teams were more likely to miss than to score. Arsenal had in play the UEFA Champions League, Surry the first career trophy.

Baku stadium waited for the first shot on goal for about ten minutes. The first strike on the target was only at the end of the third match. The players in the attacking group lost to the defenders, both in numbers and in quality. Arsenal delivered the ball into the penalty area of ​​the opponent because of the shocks of the lateral Ainsley Maitland Niles and Zead Kolashinats, who created a digital edge on the flanks. Emerson, who had taken the initiative before the "blue" break, was closest to goal: he hit the first shots (blocked) and shots. However, the most brilliant episode of those 45 minutes is the backup of Peter Cech, who left Olivier Giroud aimless. The former Chelsea goalkeeper and his future athletic director would not spoil the farewell game for Arsenal.

Another thing – the second half! Everyone understood that only one goal would reveal a match away from the best shows in the Premier League in the British final. So it happened.

Everything turned to the Chelsea attack in the 49th minute. Giroux won the solo fight against Arsenal captain Laurent Koselni and became the top scorer in the Europa League with 11 goals.

"Arsenal" was naturally open, but there was a big risk in leaving so much free space, given the superiority of Eden Azar and Pedro in speed over the towering defenders of the "gunners" . Every loss of the ball in the middle of the field conceals a danger. As a result, the Belgian, who in a few days should be introduced to Madrid as a newcomer to Real Madrid, issued a double. Oddly enough, it's Azar's first goal in the ERP rally. Pedro also upset his future boss. But the offensive trio "Arsenal" Ozil – Lacazette – Obemeyang failed in the final. Random in general A goal scored by the selection, replacing Alex Aywobey.

Chelsea won the Europa League for the second time in its history. In 2013, Londoners with Cech beat Benfica (2: 1) at the door. Emery first lost the tournament finals.
