Chapter 268: He Sees the Future

() Who is Robin van Persie?

Liverpool are unfamiliar with the Gunners' summer signing.

Who is he? Where did it come from? Do you prefer to play left, right or centre? Left or right? Better at feet or headers? How's the shot? What about dribbling? How's it going to be good? How about passing? What kind of change will his presence bring to the Gunners? Will he pose a threat to the gate guarded by Tang Wu? Will he score?

The Liverpool players don't know, and the fans on both sides don't know!

However, there are some players in this world, and his appearance will bring a local earthquake to world football. The torrent of history may bury some football elites, but true talent, at that moment of brilliance, will shine the ball.

Robin. Van Persie is such a person.

As for whether this game is an opportunity for him to break out of the cocoon, it will depend on his performance.

The appearance of the Dutch youngster quickly opened up a new situation for the Gunners, like a shot of morphine stuck in the Gunners' ribs, making the tired Gunners suddenly multiply their vitality.

In the 70th minute, Liverpool's attack failed, and they immediately launched a counter-attack on the spot.

But what no one expected was that a collective show belonging to Arsenal was quietly staged.

Ashley Cole's clearance didn't go too far, but it was good enough to get it towards his team-mate.

Vieira, who ran back to the middle to receive the ball, was tall and long-legged, and he leaned on Hamann to distribute the ball to Cesc Fabregas on the side.

Xiaofa glanced up and immediately knocked the ball back into the middle, and Van Persie, who had just come on the pitch, touched the ball for the first time.

The young Robin did not catch the ball and used his outside instep to block the ball in the path of the ball when facing the Liverpool goal. The ball was on Robin van Persie's feet and rolled down the middle with a blistering spinner, and before Gerrard could react, the Dutchman turned and ran past him.

Despite his poor physical condition, Pire's passing awareness is still top-notch. After receiving Van Persie's ball, he pushed the ball back into Van Persie's path with his right foot.

Van Persie made a fake run to the left after the ball, and Melle, who came to mark him, thought he was going to break to the left. After shifting his weight to the side, Van Persie pushed the outside of his right foot and brought the ball out from the right side when he returned to the right.

After taking out a kick, Van Persie still did not stick to the ball, but pointed the ball towards the side and passed it to Toure who was inserted on the wing.

A quick one-kick pass in a series of small areas made the whole Arsenal come alive.

“pass...”

“pass...”

“pass...“

Several times it was a high-speed one-foot pass, and the on-site commentator was not a talk show actor, and could only repeat "pass, pass" over and over again, while his eyes were staring at the gunners.

"Here we go!" Huang Jianxiang perked up, as if he had expected something.

Zhan Jun is the same, but his fists on the table are already clenched, after all, no matter how beautiful Arsenal kicks, he doesn't take it to heart.

He is a complete Red Army fan, a complete Tang Wu fan!

"This is Arsenal, the gorgeous football of Arsene Wenger." Huang Jianxiang sighed.

With a dazzling pass on the pitch getting faster and faster, Van Persie acted like an active elf on the pitch, using his erratic movement as the fulcrum for the Gunners' passes. While tearing apart the Liverpool defence, he brought the ball and his teammates forward little by little.

For Van Persie, he should not have been filled with such a role when he was placed as a central striker. But the Gunners' army was exhausted, and he was the only one on the pitch who could quickly turn around in a tight area and deliver precise passes.

The Gunners played a pass from midfield to the right and back to the middle. The difference is that it was just the middle circle, and now it is almost advancing to the top of the arc.

Tang Wu had already retreated to the small penalty line, staring intently at the Gunners' quick pass.

When the ball was in the middle, he would shout loudly for his teammates to defend, but when the ball was transferred to the right side, Tang Wu closed his mouth tightly and did not say a word.

The Gunners' pass and catch were so fast that as soon as Tang Wu's mind reacted to the countermeasures, it had already passed to the feet of the next person. At this time, no matter how fast Tang Wu spoke, his teammates couldn't keep up with Tang Wu's command speed.

It's better not to squeak and let your teammates rely on their own experience to defend, so as not to disturb your teammates' minds with your shouting.

The gunner's dazzling pass was seen by Tang Wu and remembered in his heart.

At this time, Tang Wu's brain was already running at a high speed, calculating the next development of events from the running positions of the gunner players over and over again. No matter how fast a person passes the ball, it can't keep up with the speed of human brain calculation. But what made Tang Wu helpless was that he couldn't use brainwaves to control his subordinates like the mother body in Star Wars, otherwise, the gunner's so-called "passing show" would be cut off by the people arranged by Tang Wu at the tenth and thirteenth feet.

Reality is not a science fiction blockbuster after all.

By the time Robin van Persie arrived at the edge of the box with a group of gunners, there was already a line of five Liverpool defenders standing in front of the six-yard box.

They are still like headless flies, not knowing where to run, where to stretch their feet, and which gap to plug.

Because everything is in the hands of the opponent.

Coupled with the fact that Thierry Henry has arrived in the Liverpool penalty area, it makes all defenders feel like they are in the thick of the eye.

"Van Persie gives the ball to Ljungberg again..."

"Ljungberg Knock..."

"Henry!"

When Henry's name resounded in the studios of all the world's television stations, all eyes were focused on the heel of Henry's left foot.

Ljungberg's cross-hit ball didn't roll to the ground, but bounced a few times on the turf at Anfield.

When it came to Henry's feet, it hit Henry's raised heel.

Henry, who was originally standing in the front, successfully picked up the ball because of this clever kick. The ball grazed Henry's ass and bounced forward, as well as past three Liverpool defenders.

When the camera camera caught the bouncing ball again, two players, one basket and one black, had already rushed to the ball.

In the 5-metre vacuum zone of the small penalty area, Van Persie, wearing the number 11 blue shirt, bowed his right foot slightly, and his body center of gravity was facing right in order to straighten his left leg.

Just before he picked up his left leg, a black and white elf bounced off the ground and hit the instep of his foot.

There was a crisp "boom".

The ball was safely drawn by Robin van Persie and sturdy.

It was a successful shot in the standard sense of the word!

However, before the shell had just been discharged from the chamber half a meter away, it flew backwards as if it had hit a large mountain.

Tang Wu's outstretched arms were like an old hen guarding her cubs, and the ball hit the ribs on Tang Wu's chest and bounced backwards.

Looking at the ball flying out of the penalty area, Tang Wu put aside Van Persie's left leg who was held in his arms and quickly stepped back.

Arsenal's dazzling passing and receiving can't even keep up with the cameras, let alone fans watching the ball with their mouths wide open.

For the Liverpool players, they could read before Thierry Henry's back-heel cross, but after the fairy pass, almost all of the Reds' defenders were dumbfounded.

What is he going to do?

Where is he going to kick?

Is he passing or shooting?

Countless question marks filled the heads of defenders, and even veterans like Hyypia were standing still.

But Tang Wu is an exception!

Tang Wu's mind was very clear, because he decided that with Henry's position at that time, it was difficult to form an effective shot.

So he will inevitably choose to pass the ball again.

As for who he passed on.

Whether it's a return pass or a stop ball and a pass again, Tang Wu only needs to defend the most threatening point!

What is the most threatening point?

It must have been the point where Van Persie had been running forward at high speed!

As long as this is clear, it doesn't matter whether Henry picks up the pass with his back heel or some other protruding part of his body. No matter how shocking his passing is, no matter how immortal he flies, as long as he finds his passing target, all the bells and whistles are just a trick, and in Tang Wu's eyes, he is just a paper tiger.

So when all the Reds were "addicted" to Henry's fairy pass, only Tang Wu saw Van Persie, who just came out of the offside line and ran to the ball in the vacuum.

The rest of the matter is a natural one.

Speaking of the ball after the game, BBC commentator Martin couldn't help but exclaim: "... At that time, we were all just appreciating the wonderful passing of the Gunners, only the toe people, and we saw the future..."
