Beep beep beep ......

He Hui was introducing the starters for both sides when referee Bussaka blew the whistle for the start of the game.

First off was the away team Porto.

Facing a strong opponent, Porto played very cautiously, and after kick-off, striker Hulk and the 30-metre area of Arsenal came to a halt, and only Risandro pressed into the position with Arsenal's back line.

On their home turf, Arsenal, who were in desperate need of a victory, pressed up quickly after kick-off, pressing forward on all three lines, and the back line until near the centre circle before stopping.

Arsenal's forward line includes Bam Adebayor, known as the little monster, and Robin van Persie, known as Bergkamp II, who pressed Porto's two central defenders, and Walcott and Nasri, who were both fast and skilled midfielders, forced Porto's two full-backs.

When Porto's full-back Fusile passed the ball to Fernando, Denilson had already flown in to get there, pressing Fernando directly and preventing Fernando from turning.

Arsenal's pressing is not a casual pressing, when a player is pressing the ball carrier, the whole team is intercepting the ball carrier's exit point and forcing the opponent to kick the ball wide.

Fernando couldn't find the ball point, and in desperation, he could only pass to Gao Xiaodong, who was defended by Fabregas next to him, hoping that Gao Xiaodong could use his strong body to control the ball.

Damn!

Gao Xiaodong often heard that the Premier League is fast-paced and physically strong, and he also watches Premier League games, but when he played against Arsenal today, he realized how fast the pace of the Premier League is, the ball just passed under the feet of the three defenders, and there was no passing point immediately, there were people around him, but Fernando still passed to himself.

Gao Xiaodong leaned towards Fabregas and blocked Fabregas from stopping the ball, Gao Xiaodong wanted to control the ball and wait for his teammates to run out of position.

But Fabregas kicked the ball with his foot from behind the side, kicking directly at the side of Gao Xiaodong's ankle and kicking Gao Xiaodong to a stumbling side.

Just when Gao Xiaodong stumbled, Van Persie had already chased back, a flying tackle, and also shoveled the ball with people, the ball flew, and Gao Xiaodong was also shoveled to the ground.

Gao Xiaodong thought that the referee would blow the whistle, but the referee Busaka was not far away, but he didn't seem to see it.

I'm rubbing! This penalty scale is too loose.

Gao Xiaodong got up and hurried to chase it, but the ball was quickly grabbed by Walcott, and then rushed diagonally to the bottom line.

Left-back Fusile knew that Walcott was extremely fast, and he didn't dare to come over to intercept it, but went straight back to prevent Walcoat from breaking through with speed.

However, Walcourt was very confident in his speed, and when he saw Fusile retreating, he continued to slow down, sprinting towards the baseline with the ball sharply.

Fusile is still close to ten meters from the bottom line, and Walcott has already arrived, directly dividing the ball and forcing Fusilai.

Fusile felt that the ball could go out of the bottom line, and instead of blocking, he turned and chased back, but in this ten meters of space, Walcott overtook Fusile from behind and passed the ball into the box before the ball went out of the bottom line.

Arsenal's attack was too fast, and before Porto's defence could return to place, the ball was passed into the box.

Rolando's interception at the front did not touch the ball, Van Persie in the middle had arrived, he jumped to the top, but the ball was a little higher, and the ball smashed over Van Persie's head and flew off the line.

It's only been a minute since the game.

The Porto people gasped, the opponent's attack was determined and extremely fast, and this game must be extremely difficult to play.

Goal kicks

The opponent pressed too fiercely, and Porto goalkeeper Helton didn't dare to pass to the defender anymore, so he drove directly to the front court with a big foot to find his striker Hulk.

Hulk also hoped to use his body to grab the landing point, but the central defender Gallas who defended him was very experienced, and his body was sticking to Hulk, so that Hulk could not jump, and when the ball fell, Hulk tried to control the ball again, and found that it had become Denelson and Gallas to grab him.

Hulk had the ability to take the ball under the defense of Gallas and Denilson, and the ball was snatched away by Gallas in the blink of an eye.

As a defender, Gallas never sticks to the ball and he takes the ball and passes it to Cesc Fabregas.

Gao Xiaodong saw the referee's enforcement scale from Arsenal's steal in the first minute, and he also unceremoniously kicked Fabregas's leg to catch the ball.

As long as Fabregas dares to take the ball, Gao Xiaodong's foot will definitely kick his leg, because Gao Xiaodong is not running for the ball at all.

However, Labasia-born Cesc Fabregas is best at passing, before the ball passes, he has already thought of a few positions to get the ball, after the ball arrives, Fabregas rubs the ball with the outside of his instep, and the ball flies to Nasri on the side.

Fabregas's ball went out, and Gao Xiaodong's foot was not closed, and he directly kicked Fabregas, hoping to stop the opponent's attack.

But referee Busaka also ignored it and let the game continue.

Nasri attacked Sapuruna along the wing with the ball, Fernando came to meet Sapuruna, Nasri immediately took the ball to the middle, but Adebayo in the middle left the middle and suddenly went to the side.

It was a clever change, Adebayor pulled the side to the surprise of the Porto defenders, Sapuruna did not return to position, Nasri split the side decisively, Adebayor went down and crossed into the box.

At this time, Porto's two central defenders Rolando and Alves have already been deployed in place, and the three backs have also followed the Arsenal midfielder who stepped forward, and only Van Persie has a striker in the Arsenal penalty area to grab the point, and the position is still one position behind Rolando, but when the ball flew, Van Persie inserted strongly from behind Rolando, and fell to the ground before Rolando to shovel and send the ball into the net.

Van Persie shot less than three metres from goal, and goalkeeper Helton couldn't react at all, only to watch the ball fly past him into the net.
