Chapter 320: The Game Begins

Arsenal fans clearly don't like Chelsea and the game got a lot of fan attention and a lot of fans went into the pitch because it was a London derby.

At first, Arsenal fans didn't look down on Chelsea, just like two neighbors were originally poor, and one of them was even poorer, but one day the poorer man suddenly won the jackpot of 100 million yuan, and became a nouveau riche overnight, installing a new house and buying a new car, and showing off in front of the poor neighbor all day long, and the other poor neighbor will naturally have a heartfelt dislike for this nouveau riche.

Chelsea play attacking football that has impressed the whole of England, and many new fans love Chelsea because they play well.

…………………………

Time passed quickly, and after Kodic had laid out the team's tactics, the players all changed their clothes and walked to the players' tunnel, ready to enter the field, and the players of both teams stared at each other in the players' tunnel, even if they knew each other, they didn't come up to talk at all.

At this time, they are all representing their respective teams, and their words and deeds are closely watched by these media, and fans don't want their favorite stars to greet the players of the opposing team.

With a light whistle from the referee's mouth, the players of both teams began to enter the stadium, and today the Emirates Stadium was crowded, with nearly 70,000 people present, which made the stands that could only accommodate 65,000 people seem very crowded, of which at least two-thirds of the fans are wearing the Arsenal home team uniforms, and there are also many Blues fans on both sides of the south stand, although they are also cheering for the team, but compared to the home team's sound.

In this game, the host of Sky TV, while the captains of the two teams were guessing the coins, began to introduce the starting line-ups of the two teams to the fans in front of the TV:

'Arsenal lined up a standard 3,421 formation for this game, with Petr Cech in goal, Chambers, Mustafi and Holding in defenders, and Bellerin, Xhaka, Wilshere, Maitland in midfield, and Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez in front of Alexandre Lacazette.

"From the start of the season, Arsenal's performance can be said to be normal, not particularly impressive, but this season's signing of Karazette has been truly amazing, the 26-year-old has 22 appearances, 18 starts, nine goals and three assists."

"Let's take a look at Chelsea again, due to Jones's absence, Chelsea set up a 3511 formation, seeing this derby, he intends to adopt a steady style of play, goalkeeper Courtois, defenders Gary Cahill, Christensen, Azpilicueta, midfielders Bakayoka, Kante, Cesc Fabregas, left wing-back Marcos Alonso, right wing-back Moses, forward line are Hazard, and the leading Costa.

We could see that Chelsea's two left-footed wingers, Perez and Segura, were not available for the game, and Alonso got his chance to play at left midfield, with Moses playing at right midfield, and we hope that Moses can continue his excellent performance in the game. ”

………………………………………

After the commentator introduced the starting lineups of the two teams, on the field, the two teams were ready to kick off.

With the referee's long whistle, it heralded the start of the game, at this time, taking advantage of the time just started, the commentator still kept saying: "Chelsea's results this season are too eye-catching, I think in the game, if Jones plays, he will definitely be able to score, although he did not participate in this game is a little regrettable, but this does not prevent Chelsea and Arsenal from playing a wonderful game!" ”

After guessing the coin, Chelsea were given the kick-off, and Costa and Eden Hazard on either side of the football looked at each other cryptically and nodded to each other.

As the referee whistled, Costa kicked the ball directly with a backheel to Moses behind him, and at the same time, Hazard accelerated across the pitch and ran towards the Arsenal half.

On the side, Alonso also opened slightly backwards, taking advantage of the opponent's not yet entering the game, running forward quickly, and accelerating at the right time to leave a space for himself to receive the ball.

In the position behind the center circle, after Moses received the ball, he turned his head to look at the left side, and passed the ball accurately to Alonso, who had just run out of position, Alonso did not stop the ball at all, but stretched out his right foot to push the ball vigorously diagonally, and the ball rolled directly towards the direction of the Arsenal penalty area under this force.

The pass was a bit rushed, which caused the ball to roll in at least a metre away from the direction of Hazard's run, but Hazard reacted quickly and took a few big strides straight into front of the ball the next moment.

At this time, many Arsenal players have not even reflected, some players around Hazard hurriedly want to run over to defend, but it is too late, Hazard is near the front of the opponent's big penalty area, less than 30 meters away from the goal Hazard, turned around is a powerful volley, the football is like a fast flight to the Arsenal goal.

At the same time, Arsenal defender Mustafi next to him hurriedly stepped forward, because he found that Cech was not ready, Cech was indeed not ready, after all, it was only about 10 seconds into the game, Cech saw Hazard's long-range shot, Cech was startled, and his body's own reaction made him fall directly to the ground to pounce, but it was too late.

However, the shot was too hasty and the angle was not tricky, and Cech's reaction was slow, but the ball went straight to the left.

……………………………………………………

Jones was also very excited to see this, but in the end, when he saw that the ball didn't go in, he sat down again: "If it's my long-range shot, it's definitely a goal when the goalkeeper is not ready!" ”

After hearing this, Stella also said, "Okay, you are the best!" The game continues, let's watch the game! ”

………………………………………………

The referee awarded a goal kick and with a whistle from the referee, Cech kicked the ball past Bellerin to signal the resumption of the game.

At this time, Arsenal's players no longer dared to be careless, they were very steady to put the ball in the backfield, from time to time suddenly passed over the halfway, in such an offensive way slowly looking for opportunities, in the backfield, Holding received a pass from his teammates again, seeing that Chelsea's three forwards had crossed the halfway, Holding did not choose to continue to invert the foot, but directly a big foot, the ball from the air to the center circle near Wilshere long lob ball.

Wilshere won the ball and played it back to Mesut Ozil, who accelerated past Kante's defence before taking advantage of the opportunity to hoist the ball high into the box.

The 26-year-old is Arsenal's first-choice striker and the experienced man seems to be at home in the Chelsea penalty area, squeezing past Cahill, who is close to him, and heading straight at the goalkeeper

Courtois reacted quickly, though, as he jumped straight in front of goal, picked up the ball with both hands and flicked his arms straight out of the Chelsea penalty area.

Kante from just outside the box got a pass and kicked it to Moses in front of him, who opted to attack from the wing, and Hazard was standing in front of the centre circle and immediately turned and rushed towards the Arsenal heart when he saw Moses dribbling forward.

Before the game, Arsenal's defenders were told by Wenger to guard against Hazard, and the long-range shot in the opening just now made them pay more attention to Hazard!
