112 Battle of Highbury 4

"Reyes, Reyes with the ball down the middle, Mascherano tackles!"

Andy Gray and Martin Taylor were still introducing the first goal when the pitch changed again. Reyes really has some psychological shadow on the left. Leo Cork and Zim Bonda, in particular, are not only ruthless, but also love to collide physically.

In fact, neither Leo Cork nor Zim Bonda's fouls were serious.

In the Premier League, this kind of body collision and foot penetration is common, especially for those black and hard players in the middle and lower teams, body collision and tackle are all excessive. It's a pity that Reyes is like a frightened bird now, and he hasn't come out of that nightmare at Old Trafford. So the sight of Leo Cork and Zim Bonda was deeply afraid. I'm worried that they're like Brother Neville.

So he didn't do very well on the left side.

In fact, according to Reyes's state in this game, others would have been scolded a long time ago, and they couldn't get too many opportunities to get the ball. But Reyes is different. Reyes is a very important part of Arsenal's attack. Why Wenger likes Reyes so much, he would rather have a star of Pires' caliber on the bench. It's because Reyes is a true genius.

So Arsenal attacked, and the ball was passed to Reyes a lot of the time. This time too. It's just that Reyes really has some shadows for breaking through on the left, so Reyes chose to go to the middle this time.

But Reyes had just gone down the middle, and Mascherano was immediately a tackle.

Steady and ruthless.

Mascherano is not like one of those midfielders in England at the moment. Those midfielders in English football are tall and very physical. Whether it's Arsenal's Patrick Vieira, Manchester United's Keane, or Liverpool's Hamann, they are all this type of midfielder.

The only difference should be Chelsea's Claude Makelele.

Mascherano and Makelele are very similar, both look short and not very strong. However, Mascherano has very good positioning and defensive positioning, and he has a tenacious style and a fierce defense. Don't look at the height of only 1.74 meters, he is not afraid of confrontation at all.

The tackle is also a dare to kick.

Before the game, Chen Ping directly said that if Reyes dared to go to the middle, then he would go straight down. So Mascherano didn't hesitate at all, and stepped forward directly to make a side tackle. If it's in great form, Reyes can get away with that tackle. But the shadow in his heart was not expelled, which made Reyes have some fear. Therefore, when he saw Mascherano tackle, he instinctively jumped over.

I'm really scared.

But Reyes jumped like this, and the ball was left directly by Mascherano. Mascherano is a very good midfielder, and although he is young, he already has everything he needs to be a top midfielder.

After keeping the ball behind, Mascherano got up quickly and without the slightest delay. Because Mascherano knows that he is only a defensive midfielder, and all he has to do is intercept the ball and give it to the other players to organise the attack.

"Mascherano, give the ball to Leo Coke. Leo Cork, hands the ball to Carrick. ”

Carrick is the hub of West Ham's midfield, the heart of the midfield, and Arsenal's attacking direction is determined by Carrick. How could Arsenal let go of such an important person, Vieira personally came to defend Carrick. However, Vieira's form has dropped a lot because of some minor injuries.

If he is in good form, Vieira will quickly stick to Carrick at this time, and do not give him an easy chance to get rid or pass the ball. With Vieira's physicality and defensive ability, once pasted, few people in world football can easily get rid of Vieira. However, because Vieira was not in very good shape, although he came to defend Carrick, he was still some distance from Carrick and was unable to stick to Carrick at the first time. How could Carrick give up such a good chance, in that split second Carrick passed the ball to the left.

"Ribery, Ribery take the ball. ”

After Ribery arrived in the Premier League, he quickly became famous. At present, the popularity of the Premier League can be compared to Chelsea's Arjen Robben. Ribery has the best number of breakthroughs on the left and the number of passes he has made in the Premier League. Not to mention that Franck Ribery had just scored a goal, so this time Ribery got the ball and made the Arsenal players very nervous.

Lauren had the most headaches.

He didn't know if he should stick it at this time, or if he should keep a certain distance. Fortunately, when Lauren hesitated, Ljungberg was already coming to help defend Ribery. Ribery saw Ljungberg following behind, and Lauren defending in front. But Ribery still walked forward with the ball. At this time, Edu also started from the midfield to the right, not allowing Ribery to cut inside easily.

'Arsenal are very serious about Ribery, Ljungberg, Lauren, Edu, they are all around Ribery. What will Ribery do with the ball, Ribery, Ribery through pass!"

Ribery looked like he was blindly entering the Arsenal encirclement,

But as the encirclement tightened, Ribery suddenly made a through ball and the ball passed between Ljungberg and Lauren. At this moment, a figure on the left side quickly ran past, like the wind.

"Martin Anthony, Anthony came up from the left. Antony was so fast that Anthony received the ball and Martin Antony didn't have any Arsenal defenders on his side. Anthony, Anthony cross!"16

Martin Antony is a full-back by origin.

He has been playing left midfield since his debut. With Chen Ping's continuous transformation of Martin Anthony with the system, Martin Anthony's consciousness and teamwork have made great progress. This time it was.

Seeing the attack in front, Martin Anthony quickly followed up from behind and cooperated with Ribery.

Running all the way forward, gave Ribery a lot of support. Ribery gave a gentle push and the ball was at Martin Anthony's feet. Martin Antony was born as an England wing-back, and the moment he got the ball was a cross directly.

Martin Anthony crosses and Lambert immediately starts running.

The two have worked together for many years and have a very tacit understanding. For Martin Anthony's cross, Lambert understood it and quickly ran to the front point. Sigan defended Lambert, and when he saw Lambert moving, he immediately ran over.

Lambert didn't make any feints.

In fact, when Lambert and other center players head the ball, many will choose to feint, deceive running, and throw off the defenders around them. Because a centre-forward's header with a defender's interference and a header without interference, the threat is not at all a level. But Martin Anthony was too fast and his crosses were so fast that Lambert had no chance of getting rid of Sigan.

And Lambert is confident. So he didn't care about Sigan at all, he didn't make any confusing runs, but ran directly to the front point. Sure enough, Martin Anthony's ball was passed to the front post. Sigan is a big man of 1.92 meters. Seeing this ball, he gave up defending Lambert and immediately jumped high, ready to clear.

But Sigan had just jumped up, when he suddenly found a figure next to him jumping faster and taller than him.

"Lambert, Lambert's amazing bounce. Lambert, who is 1.88 meters, is a head taller than Sigan. Lambert, header!"

Really high.

Lambert's bounce ability, after Chen Ping's transformation, is at the forefront of the current world football center forwards. Sigan's bounce power is not too bad, and with the height of 1.92 meters, the prevention and control ability is not bad. However, compared with Lambert, Lambert obviously jumped later than Sigan, but he came from behind. And he jumped higher than Sigan, a head higher.

Lambert told Sigan why he was in the England squad and how he became the top scorer in the Premier League. After Lambert jumped high, he shook his head vigorously in front of Sigan's eyes.

Martin Anthony's cross, combined with Lambert's header power, combined with a very fast shot towards goal. Lehmann reacted quickly, but was still unable to keep the ball out of the net.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

"Lambert, Lambert, Lambert———— !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"There's nothing Lehmann can do about it. Lambert, Lambert scored twice, West Ham scored twice in five minutes, already 2-0 ahead of Arsenal. Lambert has established himself as the Premier League's top centre-forward, and this is already Lambert's twelfth league goal for West Ham this season, placing him at the top of the Premier League's top scorers' charts. ”

'Lambert is so good, he's the best centre-forward to come out of England since Shearer. ”

Lambert is in bursting form.

Lambert has scored two goals in a row in this game. Andy Gray has no reservations about Lambert's praise. It's really because England haven't had such a strong centre-forward player since Shearer.

"West Ham!West Ham!West Ham!!!!"

"Champions, Champions, We Are Champions!!!!!!!!"

West Ham's goal was a big blow to Arsenal.

If it had been Arsenal who matured last season, they certainly wouldn't have been frustrated. However, since Manchester United broke their 49-game unbeaten run, Arsenal's form has plummeted, and the results in these rounds are very ugly.

A win over West Ham was expected to shake off the slump and regain confidence.

But the result was that West Ham broke the Arsenal goal twice with two clicks. With only a few minutes played in the first half, West Ham were already 2-0 up at Arsenal. This made Arsenal's confidence that had risen slightly because of the victory in the last game was lost again. Not to mention young players such as Sigan and Reyes, even top players such as Henry and Vieira are a little confused.
