Judging from the formation alone, Arsenal and Barcelona are very similar, both pay attention to the 4-3-3 of passing, and there are similarities in staffing.

Barcelona frontcourt trident Djomei, Arsenal has Bendtner in the middle, Nasri and Tsar Arshavin on the left and right.

It had been almost five years since the Tsar left Fort Madi, and had only been on the peninsula for one season. But Arshavin still has a good relationship there, and being polite always makes people feel good.

Barcelona has Sergio Busquets in midfield, Arsenal has Alexander Xiao Song in the middle of the throat, Xavi is on the left and in the middle of everything, Cesc Fabregas is also in the center of the right, Keita and Diaby are not distinguishable from each other.

Marcos was ousted from the pitch by Zhuoyang, and the biggest beneficiary was of course Pique, who is now Puyol's preferred partner.

Belgian centre-back Vermaelen is the same age as Zhuo Yang, who arrived at Arsenal last summer for £10 million. In the Champions League final between Madiburg and Barcelona four years ago, Vermaelen started alongside Rock Delas.

With the departures of Pompon-Luiz and Vermaelen, Old Rock has gradually faded out of the Madiburg squad due to age, with Thomas Tuchel's first-choice centre-back duo replaced with 27-year-old Westerman and 23-year-old Tashcher.

Before the start of the game, Zhuo Yang and Tsar, Xiao Song, and Vermaelen also specially called the reporters on the sidelines to take a photo of the four of them, I don't know how much Madibao people next to the TV will feel embarrassed when they see this scene.

Since ancient La Masia, there is also a family! Provoked by Zhuo Yang's move, Pique greeted Xiaobu and Messi, and pulled Fabregas to take a group photo, which attracted a boo from the stands at the Emirates Stadium, not to mention how embarrassing Xiaofa's expression was.

Among the four, Busquets is one year younger, and the other three were all born in 1987 and were also the same students of La Masia, but Xiaofa left early, and when Boo came to La Masia, Fabregas was already playing in the main team at Arsenal.

Today is the day of the return of the former King of Highbury, Thierry Henry, at the Emirates Stadium, but Pep Guardiola has not rewarded him with a start, much to the dismay of sought-after fans. But to their regret, the new king of Arsenal is basically out of the season due to injury.

Van Persie suffered an ankle injury to Giorgio Chiellini in November last year against the Netherlands and Italy, and Van Persie is expected to recover from the injury as soon as next month.

In fact, when the draw for the quarterfinals came out, the media was generally not optimistic about Arsenal. It's not that they are far behind Barcelona in terms of strength, and Arsenal is also one of the few super teams in the world today, just because in a tactical sense, Barcelona is very restrained by Arsenal.

More and more teams are now realising that playing against Barcelona is tantamount to killing themselves, and the only team in world football to do so in recent years is AC Milan in last season's Champions League final, with the Redsoneri achieving overwhelming success in possession, Barca's best sport.

Milan cannot be copied, and the best consensus against Barcelona is only an iron bucket formation, compressing the formation and areas to achieve a counterattack. But setting up an iron bucket formation is not a problem for other teams, only Arsenal can't let go of this face.

The bucket formation is clearly not Arsene Wenger's pursuit, and Arsenal under the professor are one of the most flashy teams in world football. It may be a question of living on your knees and dying standing up.

As expected, Arsenal started an attack with Barcelona at the beginning, and because it was at home, the attack was particularly hot. It's a pity that Barcelona is not afraid of this kind of bravery at all, and the systematic possession tactics can make Arsenal run hot, and it is actually useless. In the first 20 minutes, all the threats to the goal came from Barcelona.

In the opening 1 minute, Zhuo Yang crossed from the left side in front of the goal, and Vermaelen cleared the siege before Ibrahimovic. Xavi whipped in a corner and Sergio Busquets' long-range shot was blocked by Almunia.

In the 5th minute, Messi dribbled the ball in the middle and hit the goal with his left foot, but was blocked by Almunia with his legs. Immediately afterwards, Alves crossed from the right, and Ibrahimovic pushed it wide.

In the 9th minute, Zhuo Yang dribbled the ball at high speed on the left rib and shot from the edge of the penalty area to hit the side netting.

In the 13th minute, Alves crossed from the right, Keita passed Hawei's pass, and Messi's shot in the arc of the penalty area was slightly off target. A minute later, Xavi crossed straight forward, Ibrahimovic's left-footed shot from inside the box was saved by Almunia, Maxwell passed back in front of goal, and Zhuoyang's follow-up shot was saved by Almunia again.

In the 15th minute, Alves' long-range shot was blocked, and Messi's volley from the right side of the penalty area hit Xiao Song's stomach and popped up. In the 17th minute, Xavi crossed a free kick from the right, and Zhuo Yang's outflanking shot was blocked by Almunia. A minute later, Alves crossed for Pique to head in front of the six-yard box and Almunia saved the ball.

The only reason Arsenal didn't concede a goal in the first 20 minutes was Almunia, and when Zhuo Yang looked at it, he always felt that there was a pair of guardian wings behind him.

In fact, since the retirement of legendary goalkeeper Seaman, Arsenal's goalmouth has been very unreassuring, including Lehmann, who has always had a little bit of trouble from time to time. Now the three goalkeepers Almunia, Fabianski and Mannone are also famous butter players in the Premier League.

Who doesn't eat dumplings during the New Year? Barcelona caught up with Almunia today.

It wasn't until the 22nd minute that Arsenal had their first shot on goal, when Nasri cut inside the left corner of the box and fired a right-footed shot that bounced off the ground and grazed the right post.

From Highbury to the Chiefs, Arsenal moved to a new stadium, but the injury curse followed with them. In the 26th minute, Tsar Arshavin sprained his thigh without confrontation and could only limp and be replaced by Eboue.

It's always said that there is no one way to go and that is true for Arsenal today. In the 35th minute, French defender William Gallas frowned after successfully defending a breakthrough by Zhuo Yang, and then signaled to the professor that he could no longer hold on.

Gallas is a great defender because he is the only central defender in the big five leagues who wears the number 10 shirt, and he can't carry it without a bit of pomp.

Before the game, Zhuo Yang said to Messi: "If I were you, I would find a way to beat Gallas, he was disgraced to your glorious No. 10 family!" ”

Messi smiled and said: "And Real Madrid's Las Diarra is also No. 10, and they are both types that can off Diego." ”

Gallas is actually just right out of injury, and this is his first game of return. There was no way, Professor Wenger frowned and quickly replaced him with Brazilian midfielder Denilson, and pulled Alexander Xiao Song back to partner with Vermaelen, and Arsenal surprised the Madiborg backline.

In the 43rd minute, Zhuo Yang encountered Fabregas's defense after receiving the ball in the midfield, and flashed Xiaofa behind him with croquettes, but he did not flash cleanly, Xiaofa turned around and stretched his leg just between Zhuo Yang's legs, and the two fell at the same time.

Swiss referee Busaka gave Xiaofa a yellow card, and he buried his head in the grass in frustration and slapped it vigorously, as if he was heartbroken.

Zhuo Yang was a little puzzled: It's just a yellow card, as for whether you want to die or live?

Cesc Fabregas will miss the second leg at Camp Nou six days later due to a yellow card, and he has lost his chance to shine in front of the Barcelona fans.
