Chapter 53: Shocking (I)
Wang Zhen's life can be said to be very lucky, not long after staying in Mainz, he ushered in Ribery, followed by Karankika, Modric, and Beckham. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
came to Liverpool, and Gerrard, Wang Zhen was around, and there was never a shortage of assisters.
Even, in order to match Wang Zhen's ability and habits, Gerrard developed the ability to hang the high ball in the penalty area and the short pass ability after breaking through the wing.
Gerrard's ball was fed directly to Wang Zhen's feet.
With his back to Gallas, Wang Zhen raised his leg to stop the ball, turned around suddenly, knocked Gallas away, and shot directly with his leg.
Almunia didn't have time to react at all, because he didn't think that Wang Zhen would get up directly with his back to his back.
However, Wang Zhen's ability to hold the ball and turn around is far beyond his imagination.
When the ball flew into the goal, Almunia slowly turned his head to look, looking very clumsy.
“goooooooooola――! Wang Zhen, Wang Zhen equalized, it was only seventeen minutes, and the two sides played 1-1, will this be a goal battle? ”
After scoring the goal, Wang Zhen raised his hands flat and made a plane gliding action, which is a rare celebration action.
Arshavin felt as if he had gone back four years.
At that time, I didn't have a powerful teammate to support, but now, let's have a head-to-head confrontation!
"Arsenal didn't give an inch, attacking Liverpool from the middle, this is a very rare scene this season!"
"Walcott shoots! The ball hits high. ”
"Alonso's cold shot misses the bottom line."
The clock was ticking, but it didn't take long to score a goal.
In the 22nd minute, Arsenal won the ball and immediately launched a counter-attack.
Walcott went all the way to the bottom, almost close to the bottom line under Gerrard's defense, and found that Walcott, who had no chance to cross, did not hesitate to step on the ball and turn back to the pass.
The pass was slightly high, and Rosicky, who had just arrived in the penalty area, and Mascherano exchanged headers.
Rosicky was in a better position and jumped more fully as he got on the top of the ball and it went straight into the box.
At this moment, Van Persie and Arshavin are neck and neck, just running from the big penalty line to the close position of the small box.
Daniel and Rieira opted to keep Van Persie at bay because they knew how good Van Persie could be.
However, Van Persie couldn't get the ball at all and he turned around and tried to stop the ball with his leg up, but it couldn't hook the ball.
The football flew further to the left, and it was Arshavin again, and Arshavin, who ran to the position, achieved it in one fell swoop.
"Andrei Arshavin! Brilliant goal, wonderful goal, brace! ”
Throughout the first half of the season, Arshavin didn't score many goals, scoring just three goals in total, and more often than not, he was used as a response point.
Unexpectedly, in this game, Arshavin actually scored twice.
Some commentators once said that Arshavin was a player born for the big scene, and that was indeed the case.
"Arshavin scored again?"
"It seems that Arshavin is very excited to meet the old captain."
"As early as the season when Mainz won the League Cup, Mainz met Zenit St. Petersburg several times, and Arshavin dragged Zenit and Mainz, who had initially shown strong strength, to fight against each other.
"The current Arsenal, although the main force is quite neat, but there are still a lot of substitute injuries in the team, and the main force needs to take on more responsibilities, Arshavin is a mature player, and his ability is undoubtedly what Arsenal needs."
Wang Zhen is also frowning, Arshavin is a midfielder all-rounder, he can appear in any offensive position at any time, if he is really in good shape, he may threaten the goal at any position on the 30-meter line, let Mascherano defend him, it is difficult for some strongmen.
Could it be that if you really want to play against each other, you will score more goals than anyone?
Wang Zhen was also undecided, not knowing what decision to make.
When you encounter a day when the state of a first-line star explodes, you will understand that any strategy is useless, and the biggest headache for the manager is the sudden outbreak of these nerve knives, which is a very terrifying scene.
Arshavin, this guy is really difficult.
If the former Arshavin was just an ordinary first-line star, then after the change of fate, Arshavin won the championship with Mainz, became famous, and seemed to be a representative of the first-line stars.
"Gerald!"
Gerald looked to the left at Wang Zhen.
Wang Zhen looked serious: "I need help." ”
"What location?"
"Attacking from the middle, you can't give them too many opportunities to attack from the middle, if you fight in the middle, we won, if you can't fight, you will lose, and if you let go of the middle, you will wait for death."
"Okay!"
Gerrard also understands that there is only one middle on the pitch, if Liverpool can press Arsenal, Arsenal will not be able to clear, and if Arsenal in turn will hold Liverpool, then Liverpool will not be able to advance.
"Wenger's strategy is really bold, Liverpool midfielders are top-notch, especially after Wang Zhen this season, there is a tough arrow figure in the central axis, on this line, no team in the Premier League dares to fight with Liverpool, only Wenger's team has the ability to wade through this line, his technical football, is indeed a unique landscape in England."
This game was very smooth, there were almost no fouls, let alone malicious fouls, and the two sides seemed to be holding back enough energy to compete with each other in terms of skills, and they didn't even think about the physical crushing style of play.
In some ways, it's not good for Liverpool, but it can't be helped.
Although Liverpool's record this season is good, in fact, it is in the throes of transformation, and trouble will always come, not this game, but also the next game.
In the 38th minute, the commentator sighed: "In this kind of offensive situation, time flies very fast, and it is close to halftime...... Gerald is here again! ”
To be honest, Rosicky defended Gerrard, which was wishful thinking, but Arshavin also has defensive ability, and this time, Gerrard and Arshavin faced off.
"Gerald and Arshavin have met head-on!"
Truth be told, Arshavin is actually a miniature version of Gerald.
The things they are good at are almost overlapping, if you look at a player's ability as a hexagon, each ability is twenty points, then Gerrard is a very regular hexagon, and Arshavin has at least four directions and Gerrard's height, but Arshavin is ten kilograms lighter than Gerrard and more than ten centimeters shorter.
So, Arshavin is a little bit quicker, while Steven Gerrard is stronger and has a slightly better sense of the ball.
In this head-on confrontation, Gerrard undoubtedly leaned on Arshavin with his body, and Arshavin was unable to withstand it in the end.
As soon as he broke through Arshavin, the small open space in front of Gerrard was undefended, and in Gerrard's habit, this kind of ball, nine times out of ten, he raised his leg to shoot.
However, now Liverpool have a more consistent output point.
Wang Zhen was churning in the penalty area, squeezing out a lot of position, Gerrard judged slightly, thinking that he could send the ball over, and immediately did not hesitate to play the ball.
Wang Zhen leaned on Chlich and suddenly withdrew his strength, making Chlich, who was pushing hard, fall and eat, and then turned around and went directly to the football.
The cooperation between Gerald and Wang Zhen is no longer as rusty as it was half a year ago.
"Wang Zhen! Will he be able to equalize! ”
