Chapter 106: Matt's Role

The soft light of the Wembley Rainbow Bridge sprinkled evenly on every leaf of the pitch turf, and the players from both sides ran into the pitch under the illumination of the lights!

Nearly 90,000 fans cheered as the second half of the game was about to begin!

Adam and Matt stood on the sidelines, one of them was one hundred and ninety-eight centimeters, and the other had grown to one hundred and seventy centimeters, but the height contrast was still very strong.

They all have their own shortcomings, but they are also very prominent.

That's why Gao Bo used both of them as regular substitutes for the ball.

There are many players with shortcomings on the football field, but as long as there is one very outstanding characteristic, such players tend to be more comfortable than those who are average in all abilities.

Just like now, Gao Bo wants to increase his personal breakthrough, so he is replaced by Adam, he wants to strengthen the air operation, and Matt can put on the battle.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was almost a minute left in the second half of the game, Gao Bo put his arm around Matt and was still explaining: "In the second half, Arsenal is likely to have a lot of cross opportunities, I need you to control the high point in the penalty area, return to our penalty area when defending, and rush to their penalty area when attacking!" Just like last time against Manchester City! Do you understand? Matt! ”

Matt bent over a little uncomfortable, but in order to take care of the manager's height, he still tried to bend down and listen, and when Gao Bo finished speaking, he nodded violently.

"I see, sir!"

Gao Bo patted Matt's back: "Focus!! Matt, it's important to stay focused on the court!! ”

At this time, the fourth official had already raised the sign of substitution.

'Before the start of the second half, Luton Town had to make a substitution! No. 11 Adam came on and he replaced No. 7 Lewis Emmanuel, while No. 19 Matt Schmidt replaced No. 32 Hassan Ali!! ”

At this time, the two players who were to be replaced were already sitting on the bench, so the fourth official sign was raised, and the two immediately got permission from the referee and ran into the field.

.....

Arsene Wenger sat in the dugout, and he had largely anticipated Luton's substitution before half-time.

Do you want to switch to a high school forward to press up and attack?

Wenger smiled slightly, young people are impulsive....

If Luton Town press up, they will have to rely on their formation, and then they will have the grassland of Arsenal strikers behind them.

There is basically no suspense in this game!

Arsene Wenger sat in the dugout and thought, looking at Gao Bo on the other side of the pitch with some pity.

To be honest, Arsene Wenger is quite appreciative of the refreshing tactical system that Gobo has created at Luton.

The overall dense formation, coordinated movement, whether it is pressing up the attack or falling back to defend, or pressing in the frontcourt, is the team's overall cooperation, this is a team that is very good at stacking absolute numerical advantage in the local area to break down the opponent.

If the difference in quality between the players of the two sides is not so large, it will not be easy for Arsenal to beat such a well-trained team....

But it's a pity, Arsene Wenger must get a ticket to the FA Cup final.

Arsenal have not won a title for four years, and if they continue to fail to win a title of sufficient weight this year, the pressure on Arsene Wenger will be great....

This year is the best chance to beat Luton Town and reach the final!!

Arsene Wenger's eyes are firm!

At the start of the second half, things went as Wenger had expected, with Luton Town indeed looking to attack after picking up the ball.

In fact, Luton also play the tactic of directly raising high balls for the center forwards to grab points, and they still like to play to the front court through cooperation, tear up the space and then pass the threatening ball.

Drinkwater and Vardy exchanged passes and pushed the ball up front before Drinkwater fired a ball past Adam White.

The front pass was laid out for this one-on-one opportunity for Adam White on the wing!

This is Luton's wide flashpoint!

Now Adam White has the ball to face Eevee one-on-one, and he first concedes the ball to his main foot and then slows down the pace.

Gao Bo has already equipped all the cards to Adam White, and with the amplification of the cards, Gao Bo believes that Eev is no match for Adam in a one-on-one situation.

Sure enough, Adam's very fast feints shook Eevee a little dizzy, and then Adam suddenly cut in from the outside, ready to wipe past Eevee's side.

Ebu's head is clear at this time, and he must not let Adam break into the penalty area like this!!

So he reached out and pulled Adam to the ground!

Beep.......

The referee's whistle blows!

Foul!!

Gao Bo rushed to the sidelines, and he was just about to put pressure on the referee loudly so that the referee would give him a yellow card or something.

However, as soon as he rushed out, he saw that the referee had taken out the yellow card from his pocket, so Gao Bo immediately applauded vigorously and even gave the referee a thumbs up.

Now it was Wenger's turn to be dissatisfied, and he also rushed to the sidelines, spreading his hands.

"It's a yellow card?!!

Wenger questioned loudly.

"Of course it's a yellow card!! How could this not be a yellow card!! ”

After hearing Wenger say this, Gao Bo also said immediately.

"There's nothing to do with you here, hairy boy!!"

"Hey..."

The two managers are getting closer and closer, and it looks like they are going to face each other directly.

The fourth officer immediately ran over and stood between the two.

"Watch your position, Mr. Coach!!"

Both managers walked away in a rage.

Arsene Wenger looked at the situation on the pitch.

Want to threaten with a personal breakthrough?

Arsene Wenger was most worried that if Eboue was to be dealt with like this by Adam again and get a second yellow card, it would be very difficult to do...

Alexander!! Go and help Emman!!! Arsene Wenger shouted to Alexander Song from the sidelines.

Song also knew that the opponent was now replaced by a wide Demoman, and it seemed that Eevee would not have the upper hand at all when it came to the opponent, so he would need to lean more on Ebu's side next.

Adam created a free-kick on the left side of the pitch and two centre-backs came up to get involved, with Jamie Vardy and Matt Schmidt also in the box.

Kevin Keane to handle the ball.

When he passes the ball into the box, it's a good pass!!

Matt Schmidt takes the ball to the top!!

The weakness of Arsenal's two centre-backs' lack of height has been exposed! Matt Schmidt won the scramble for the ball in the air with ease.

It's just that he headed the ball a little higher.

Rao is like this, which also made an exclamation from the stands.

The Arsenal fans were overjoyed after the exclamation, and for the Luton fans, they immediately burst into cheers!

This is the closest Luton have come to scoring since the start of the game! And it was Luton's initiative to create an attack, which gave Luton fans hope of an equaliser.

Wenger was also taken aback, to be honest, in the face of the opponent's attack with set-pieces, it is really difficult to prevent, after all, the back line is full of injuries, so Wenger has to send such a pair of central defenders, in the high-altitude ball defense, the undersized Kolo Toure, and the aging Silvetes are difficult to compete with the young Luton centre-forward.

Or get the second goal as soon as possible!!

Such a dangerous situation made Arsenal realise that a one-0 lead is definitely not safe.

Then Arsenal seemed to be enraged, and they immediately attacked!

This time Arsene Wenger spotted the difference at Luton, when their high school striker Matt Schmidt returned to the penalty area to defence?

What is this?

Swing Guard?

When Arsene Wenger saw Matt Schmidt head Arshavin's cross over the touchline, the French coach's face was twisted...
