Chapter 152: Why Don't You Keep Talking?
Halfway through the first half, Arsenal led Newcastle 2-0 at home.
Both goals were scored by Quaresma, who conquered Highbury Stadium in just 25 minutes.
This should be considered a perfect debut!
Even the most discerning fan can't help but give Quaresma a thumbs up.
The parallel labels that were once attached to Quaresma were torn apart at this moment, and the doubts and belittlements were also shattered at this moment.
All Arsenal fans are aware that they have picked up a big bargain.
Because of the Waterloo in La Liga Barcelona, Quaresma even if he played a phenomenal performance in the Portuguese Super League, his value has never reached the level that he wants to match his ability.
And Arsenal only paid 1,500 euros to buy a star that usually can't be bought for 3,000, is there a better deal than this?
Think of Wright Phillips Jr., who Chelsea just bought from Manchester City, who is far less capable than Quaresma, and who also cost the Russian bigwig £2,100, or 3,150 euros, worth twice as much as Quaresma.
By contrast, you can see how much of a bargain Arsenal has picked up.
......
Arsenal, who were two goals ahead, slowed down the tempo and focused more on defending and steady, and if they could keep that score until half-time, the game would be in Arsenal's favour.
Winning the game smoothly is Arsenal's goal.
After the restart, Quaresma was back on his feet with Babayaro.
Babayaro looked at Quaresma angrily, and he thought that Quaresma was too shameless.
Obviously, we had a good conversation one second, why did you stab me in the next second without even saying hello, take out a knife, what is this?
I almost took you as a confidant!
Quaresma was not embarrassed at all, and looked at Barbayaro with a smile on his face.
"Why don't you go on?"
Barbayaro gritted his teeth, eager to carry Quaresma to the ring and fight it out.
But he was ten times eight times, and he didn't get rid of his hatred at all.
But the game is still going on, even if Babayaro wants to clean up Quaresma, there is no chance, anyway, Quaresma has no face and no skin, even if you live me like a dog, what can you do, I was slipped away?
Then, the two sides went back and forth, playing happily, but the scramble was more in the midfield, and there was very little threat to the goal, and at the end of the first half, the score remained at 2:0, and Arsenal took the lead.
"Ricardo, what did I think of Babayaro as if he was going to eat you, what did you do to him?"
Henry put his arm around Quaresma's shoulders and walked down, the team was now leading the score, Henry was naturally happy and relaxed.
If Arsenal are not leading now, then Henry must be under tremendous pressure, after all, as a captain, he has to take on the responsibility of leading the team to win, and as a striker, he also has to take on the responsibility of attacking the city for the team, how can the pressure be small.
Now that the team is two goals ahead, there is no pressure in this regard, and even he may get more chances to score, so it's no wonder that he is unhappy.
Quaresma pouted, "Who knows, maybe he's constipated!" ”
Henry Waner, touched Quaresma's head and left, he didn't believe that nothing happened between Quaresma and Babayaro, but since Quaresma didn't say it, he wouldn't ask about it, as long as the team could win, he didn't care so much!
Of course, Barbayaro didn't want to trouble Quaresma, and although the grumpy captain Patrick Vieira left, Henry was not a vegetarian either.
Sitting in the dressing room for a while, listening to Arsene Wenger talk about the precautions of the second half, Quaresma will not miss every minute to improve.
However, looking at Wenger's soft-spoken speech, Quaresma still felt a lot of emotion.
Arsene Wenger is a gentleman, he is always polite, he is rarely seen in a rough voice, at least in the more than a month he has been at Arsenal, and he has not heard him impassionedly motivate the team.
This may be different from other managers, especially the old rival Alex Ferguson, who is eager to puncture your eardrums with every word......
Young players need the gentle encouragement of Arsene Wenger and the thunderous encouragement of Alex Ferguson, and if the characteristics of the two can be combined, then there is absolutely no such thing as a young player under his command.
At the start of the second half, Newcastle showed a desperate attitude, even at Highbury, they would not give up easily.
After all, it is a traditional Premier League giant, even if it is down now, and can only wear a shirt with patches, it still has to adhere to aristocratic etiquette and cannot lose face.
Arsenal retreated again to give Newcastle more space to attack, and at the same time, it also meant that Newcastle's backfield was about to become Arsenal's racetrack.
Pire and Quaresma on the left and right sides are both pure with rockets tied to their feet, and the absolute speed of Van Persie and Henry in the middle is not the strongest, but once it is activated, it will not be inferior to the opponent's defenders.
As long as Arsenal's counter-attack is played, it is when the opponent is beaten all over the ground.
In the 51st minute of the second half, Lauren intercepted the opponent's pass and passed the ball forward to the feet of Quaresma, who flicked and dunked past Duff and spread his feet and rushed forward.
The middle and left sides also did not hesitate to catch the counterattack, and the four arrows were fired in unison, almost missing the magpie into a sieve.
If it weren't for Van Persie in the middle of the road in the end, he stopped the ball and was stubbornly tackled by Bramble, and the score on the field may have been rewritten to 3:0.
Two minutes later, Arsenal's counterattack came again, Pire dribbled all the way to the bottom line, and then the inverted triangle pass hit the feet of Henry, and the Arsenal captain faced Given's burst of fire directly through the opponent's goal, and the score finally became 3:0.
Newcastle were stunned by the whole thing, and Arsenal's sharp style of play was simply killing them.
Perhaps their onslaught on Arsenal's position will have an effect, perhaps breaking through the Gunners' goal, but in the process, their empty backfield has been ravaged by Arsenal no longer knows how many times.
The game loses its suspense!
The suspense had been lost since Quaresma rewrote the score to 2-0, but Newcastle were unwilling to accept the reality.
But when they don't want to die, the cruel reality tells them that they can't accept it.
The Arsenal fans in the stands have begun to sing and dance to celebrate the first victory of the new season, and against the strong Newcastle United, Arsenal can still play a hearty victory, does this mean that Arsenal have a chance to compete with Chelsea and Manchester United for the league title this season?
There is nothing more wonderful in this world than seeing hope.
