Chapter 395: Fake Fall Again
As Carvalho and the Notts County players celebrated their goals, Arsene Wenger was lost in thought on the sidelines. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Clearly, it was a well-choreographed free-kick tactic, or more premeditated.
Even if the German centre-forward is not on the pitch right now, Notts County still have a big guy like Westerman, as well as players with strong point-grabbing ability such as Villa and Kuyt, and even the ability to design attacking routines that can be inserted in the back, they have a lot of advantages to take advantage of.
But who would have thought that Notts County, which has so many advantages, does not take advantage of their advantages, but instead makes a small central defender the core of the team's free-kick tactics, which is simply completely unreasonable!
I just don't know if this is a temporary strategy or a tactical routine that Notts County will continue to implement for a long time, in any case, at least it proves that Notts County has a deep knowledge of free-kicks, and Arsenal should be on guard.
After the restart, Arsenal did not retreat properly to avoid the attack, but instead attacked more aggressively, and they also knew that losing one goal and losing more goals would make no difference in the final result, and they needed to put it to death.
Seeing Arsenal's near-desperate form, Loew found an opportunity to call Alonso to the sidelines, and then the situation on the field of Notts County immediately changed.
In this way, Arsenal is a little uncomfortable, because at this time, Notts County's tactics, like the tactics adopted by Arsenal in the first half, formed a set of barriers in the midfield, played strangulation, and let Arsenal pass the extreme difficulties in the midfield.
Wenger almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, this is the way of the other to give back to the other, although as a Frenchman he does not know this old Chinese saying, but Notts County's tactical execution ability still makes him feel infinitely tricky.
In particular, Notts County removed Sneijder and replaced him with a more defensive Mascherano, and the midfield meat grinder has lived up to its name, which makes Arsenal even more uncomfortable.
Arsene Wenger didn't have a particularly good solution, so he had no choice but to let the players go more high, not from the ground through the half, and maybe create some chances.
Henry's mentality at this time is very unhappy, although Carvalho is already a first-class central defender in the Premier League, but in front of him as the world's top striker, it is still not enough to see, and his diving feints last time made Carvalho deflated.
But just now, Carvalho scored a beautiful goal right under his nose to help Notts County take the lead, and even more turned himself into a pathetic backdrop, where can he be happy.
He was going to find another opportunity to teach Carvalho a lesson, to be arrogant in front of him, but there was a price.
It didn't take long for the opportunity to come, Ljungberg received a pass on the side and kicked into the box, Henry was about to turn around according to Carvalho, but the force from the single made it impossible for him to complete the action smoothly.
At this time, Henry suddenly calculated, leaned back suddenly, then threw himself forward and fell to the ground, hugged the ball and squatted on the ground to protest to the referee not far away.
"Sir, he pushed me down in the back, if it wasn't for his actions, I would have turned around and faced the goalkeeper directly, I would definitely be able to score, and now he has ruined such a good chance to score, the penalty kick will never escape, and he should have received a red card!" Henry's words were reasonable, as if he were asking for the referee to be ordered.
The players of Notts County are not doing it, last time because of Henry's dive, the three points of Notts County became a point, even if it was determined to be a misjudgment, but the result could not be changed, the players of Notts County have long been holding their breath, and now you are doing this again?
Several players pointed at Henry and shouted loudly, and several players protested beside the referee, hoping that the referee could teach Henry a lesson fairly, and if he didn't let the game, he really didn't have to compare, just watch him dive!
At this time, the Arsenal players also rushed around and put pressure on the referee, although they did not see whether Henry was really violated, but as long as the referee made a decision in Arsenal's favor, then Arsenal could equalize.
In fact, the referee was not close to the scene of the incident just now, and Arsenal's long pass made him have no time to run to the attacking danger area, so he didn't see it very realistically.
Henry is an old fritter, as long as he takes it seriously, the falling action he makes is absolutely the same as the real one, and the referee can't judge it through Henry's actions.
But it doesn't matter, the referee has more options.
First of all, Henry's position just now is not very dangerous, even if Carvalho does not foul, Henry may not be much of a threat when he turns around and erases it, that is, Carvalho has no motive to foul.
Secondly, Henry has a history of faking falls, in the first leg of the meeting between the two teams, Henry also cheated a penalty because of the fake fall, so that Arsenal will not be humiliated at home, you know, even the referee admitted that he misjudged after the game!
In other words, there is now a high probability that Henry is repeating his old tricks and wants to continue to cheat penalties, how can the referee get Henry what he wants?
The referee pushed away the players from both sides in front of him and came to Henry, and at this time, everyone had already sensed something from the referee's eyes and movements.
Sure enough, the referee motioned for Henry to get up, and then directly showed him a yellow card, and he made a clear decision, and Henry faked a fall.
Henry's acting skills are good, making an angry expression, and constantly explaining to the referee's theory, as if he has been greatly wronged.
But the referee remained unmoved, and instead showed Campbell another yellow card, because Campbell was too emotional when he protested, as if he wanted to eat the referee.
The Notts County players applauded the decision, and the only thing that upset them was that Henry only got a yellow card, and if they were referees, they would have been sent off long ago.
But anyway, this is the home stadium of Notts County, and Henry wants to play fake fall here, but he is really looking for his own death!
After such a fuss, time has passed a little more, and the situation has become more favorable for Notts County, not to mention anything else, just a few of Arsenal's core players are all yellow cards are enough to give Arsenal a headache.
"Your clumsy acting skills have been exposed! I'm really ashamed of you, and you still go to play fake falls, don't you know how to write the word shame? When Carvalho and Henry passed by again, Carvalho said to Henry with a look of contempt with a sense of revenge.
Responding to him was naturally a stinky face from Henry...... (To be continued.) )
