Chapter 601: This Is the Arsenal (4)

Arsenal's attack is not good, but it does not mean that they have given up the game, and it does not mean that they really have no choice, but they are only two goals behind, which is not a big problem for the experienced Arsenal. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

At this time, the offensive and defensive speed of the two sides on the field is very fast, Schalke and Arsenal will not hesitate to launch a counterattack no matter who has the opportunity, and the chances of both sides are relatively equal.

In the 36th minute, Matip kicked the ball from the back and refracted it on Benayoun, Van Persie took the ball directly and shot directly at Matip but hit Matip again, refracted to the other side, and Högel immediately transferred the ball to the front. Juan Mata received a through ball from the right and headed it to the back post, but Raul's header found it in Szczesny's arms.

In the 41st minute, Arsenal captain Van Persie launched a counterattack in the midfield from the foot of Fuchs, the football quickly transferred to the feet of Walcott, and the little tiger went straight to the penalty area.

This goal fully demonstrates Van Persie's ability, the Dutchman is also world-class, and it is very meaningful to score a goal in such a situation, which also made the fans chant in unison "There is only one Van Persie in the world!" Arsenal, who have always been overwhelmed by Schalke, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and this breath also gave them a sense of hope to survive.

The crowd immediately erupted in an earth-shattering roar, this is the style of England fans, no matter what their team's results are, they will wave their flags until the last minute, and it is still rare to turn against the club, not the team.

Schalke was not affected much, after all, even if they conceded a goal, they still had a certain advantage on the field, not to mention that there was a one-goal lead at this time, so they could still maintain a balance of mentality, and they would not hesitate to counterattack as long as they had the opportunity. In the last minute of the first half, Juan Mata received a through ball from Fuchs and distributed the ball to the left side of the box, Farfan made a quick break and picked up, but the ball was not high and was confiscated by Szczesny.

The first half ended with a two-one draw, with Schalke still leading by one goal.

As soon as both sides returned to the lounge, adjustments were made. Schalke played very well in the first half, but the problem was that Raul on the front line had been controlled, not to mention that after the fierce game in the first half, his physical strength and consumption were very large, and he was a little unable to keep up at the end, so Magath decisively made the first adjustment and replaced Raul with Demba.

In fact, this is a risky move, after all, Raul's reputation and strength are not comparable to players like Demba Ba, and he can always distract Arsenal, but such a change will immediately appear a loophole, and it may really become the beginning of being defeated. But at the same time, this kind of gamble is also very necessary, although Demba Ba is not famous, but the strength is not weak at all, not to mention that he played in the Premier League last season and also broke Arsenal's goal, if anyone thinks that this player has no strength, then he will definitely be hit hard.

And Arsenal because Wenger could not personally direct had to communicate with his assistant coach by phone, he asked his assistant coach to replace Santos, who did not perform at all in the first half, and replace Gervinho to enhance the interception ability of the midfield, which is also no way, must strengthen the midfield to have a chance.

When he walked out of the player's tunnel, Ai Huan saw that Zhang Chong looked a little lonely, so he walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "What's wrong, Brother Chong, why do you seem a little preoccupied? Is it because of the goal conceded in the first half? Don't think too much, that's Van Persie, a world-class striker, we were all children when we became famous." ”

Zhang Chong sighed, "It's also because of this ball, and it's not because of this ball, I just suddenly feel that the level of these people is too good." I have also come into contact with some outdated world stars in the Chinese Super League before, some of them are just like that, and some of them no longer have the original style, and I thought that the stars in the world were like that, but now I look really powerful. In the first half, they almost lost control of the midfield, but just that one chance, he just grabbed it, and you look at him, he almost dominated Arsenal's attack, it was really powerful. ”

"Haha, take your time, Arsenal is like that now, they are already broken, if it was in the past, maybe today it is someone else. But this year our goal is also to win the championship, there are so many good players like that, take your time and you will see more. But that's a good thing, and when you get a foothold here, you will understand when you go back to your home country, and that's what the players from those teams in Asia look like. ”

Zhang Chong thought about it and felt that it made sense, and his mood naturally improved a lot, and his emotions also rose behind Ai Huan, isn't it Arsenal?

Schalke continued the initiative in the first half, and they appeared to be comfortable in midfield, while Arsenal also strengthened their midfield blocking because of Santos' appearance. However, this stalemate lasted only a few minutes. In the fiftieth minute, Ai Huan suddenly shot a cold arrow outside the penalty area, Mertesacker desperately cleared the siege in the penalty area, and pushed the ball into the air hard, the ball had not yet fallen Ai Huan had jumped high into the air again, but this time he did not shoot directly but pushed the football to the other side, Mata did not wait for the football to hit the ground and turned and volleyed but was blocked by Koscielny, Farfan immediately followed the volley, and the football actually hit Szczesny's thigh and bounced back into the field again.

But just when all the Arsenal fans were excited about these two saves, Demba Ba suddenly hit the front of the football, but this time he was not greedy but gently swung the football to the left side, and Crishitto, who had already inserted the assist, shot angrily, and the football had flown into the unguarded goal, and the score was changed again to 1-3.

This goal is really speechless, Arsenal, who have just improved a little, was confused by such a sudden blow, they all watched Crishitto run wildly on the field in a daze, and even they themselves couldn't figure out what was going on?
