No. 671: Unbeaten in 54 Premier League games!
Returning to England, Arsenal, who have won 10 consecutive Premier League games, have not been able to widen the gap with those chasing behind. Updates are fast and ad-free.
The Premier League, Champions League, League Cup, FA Cup, the Premier League giants enter the intensive schedule of fourth-tier battles, and this is the time to test the depth of each team's bench.
Arsenal are the team with the least depth on the bench of the Premier League's big four, but they have a healthy Dutch twink.
This pair of strikers who have long proven themselves in the Premier League and made a name for themselves in the World Cup have held up Arsenal!
The two of them rushed to fight in four arenas, escorting the gunners to attack the city and protect them, and they were strong and forced all the way.
Arsenal cemented their position at the top of the table on November 4 with a 1-1 draw with Shakhtar Donetsk at the Donabas Arena.
Robin van Persie scored the equaliser for Arsenal in the 25th minute of the second half.
Three days later, they returned to the Premier League to host traditional Premier League powerhouse Newcastle United.
After 90 minutes of fierce battle, the two sides shook hands one by one, and substitute Chen Fan used the goal to grab points in the 35th minute of the second half to help Arsenal defend their home honor.
Arsenal set a new Premier League unbeaten record to 51 games!
The highlight of the game was Liverpool's host to Chelsea, which the Reds won 2-0 at home.
Chelsea were overtaken by victorious Manchester City to move them into third place, with the gap between Manchester United, who also won, close to them by two points!
After the eleventh round of the Premier League, the League Cup will soon be ushered in, and Arsenal will travel to challenge Newcastle United.
Arsene Wenger appears to have given up on the game, leaving his squad in London to recuperate and travel to Newcastle with a group of substitutes, only to end this season's Carabao Cup campaign with a narrow defeat.
Manchester City's media breathed a sigh of relief that perhaps the Gunners would have stayed in the Carabao Cup if Arsene Wenger had brought in all his squad.
In other words, if that were the case, the Gunners would still have the possibility of winning four trophies.
"Arsenal have finally lost!"
Manchester United's mouthpiece, the Manchester City Evening News, shouted: "They finally suffered their first defeat of the season, which shows that they are not invincible!"
The Gunners have been in very average form in recent times, with just two draws and one defeat in three competitions, which can even be described as poor.
What does this mean? It shows that the Gunners have entered a period of fatigue, and the opportunity to end the Gunners' unbeaten record has come!
Go ahead, Manchester United, our chance has come! ”
In the next two rounds of Premier League matches, Arsenal won one and drew one, winning 3-0 away at Wolverhampton and drawing 2-2 away at Everton.
Surprisingly, Chelsea lost by three goals at home to Sunderland in the thirteenth game!
United, who have won two in a row, took advantage of the opportunity to catch up, overtaking Chelsea in third place in the table and closing the gap on Manchester City.
The first half of the season has come to the middle of the most intense stage, and Arsenal ushered in the north London derby in the 14th round - Arsenal against Tottenham!
When it comes to London's football history, before Abou took charge of Chelsea, London's dominance was Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal.
And because the stadium they are on is in the north of London, the duel between them is also called the "North London Derby!" ”
The collision between them is a grand event of London football.
It wasn't until Abobou took over at Chelsea that that changed the landscape, with Chelsea starting to rise to replace Tottenham.
But in the minds of Tottenham and Arsenal fans, the north London derby is even more important than their clash with Chelsea.
Arsene Wenger certainly knows that, knows the football culture in London, so he takes this game very seriously.
On November 20, the 14th round of the Premier League began, with the north London derby taking the lead.
Tottenham, which is at home at White Hart Lane, welcomes Arsenal with all the main home stadiums!
In the stands, Tottenham fans hung banners: End the Gunners' unbeaten record, just tonight!
It shows their determination to beat their city rivals at home.
Once the game began, the two teams went head-to-head at White Hart Lane, which Arsene Wenger had to do.
If he adopts the tactics of shrinking, even if he wins this game, he will be ridiculed by Tottenham fans.
Moreover, Arsenal are not seriously injured at the moment, and he is not afraid to play against Tottenham.
The pace of the pitch was very fast, and in the first half hour, there were a total of 15 shots on goal from both sides!
In the 37th minute of the first half, Bale took advantage of the counterattack opportunity and forced a long drive from his own half.
The young Bale rolled up a monstrous storm in White Hart Lane, ran more than 60 meters, passed three Arsenal players, and hit a low shot into the penalty area!
Football hits the net!
1 to 0!
Tottenham break the deadlock on the pitch!
Bale was ecstatic at the goal, and he became a hero to Tottenham fans.
Tottenham went into the second half with a one-goal advantage.
In the ninth minute of the second half, the Dutch duo suddenly made a force, Chen Fan finally got rid of the opponent's encirclement, broke out of the encirclement, and passed the football to the feet of the unmarked Van Persie.
Van Persie forced his way into the opponent's penalty area with a football and was tripped by the opposing defender!
"Tick! ……”
The referee awarded a penalty.
Van Persie personally shot the hit!
One-to-one!
Arsenal equalised and the two sides were back on the same page.
In the next time, the Dutch double fire broke out in full swing, and in the eighteenth minute of the second half, Chen Fan made a successful steal in the front court and made a straight stop.
Van Persie slapped his horse and arrived, and he pushed and shot!
Two to one!
Arsenal overtook the score!
Van Persie scored twice!
Ten minutes later, Tottenham had a great chance to score. Crouch was unmarked and hit a beautiful lion's head on the left side of the penalty area!
Two to two!
Tottenham stubbornly equalised, and the two sides are back on the same page again!
The situation on the field was deadlocked, and in the blink of an eye, the time came to the last ten minutes. Van der Vaart, who was extremely depressed at the World Cup in South Africa and was finally cleared by Real Madrid, fired a long-range shot from 30 meters away in the 39th minute of the second half.
The soccer ball penetrates the goal of Almunia's goal!
Three to two!
Tottenham Hotspur at home are leading again!
The faces of the Arsenal fans at the scene turned pale, is the unbeaten record going to end tonight?
And the end at the feet of Tottenham?
Manchester City media reporters on the sidelines were so excited that they even cheered loudly for Van der Vaart's goal.
After the resumption of the game, Arsenal began to fight back frantically, and in the 42nd minute of the second half, they played a brilliant combination on the right to tear apart the Tottenham defence.
Arshavin crossed, Van Persie, who was ambushed in the middle, made a tackle, and the football slid out!
Two minutes later, Arsenal made a comeback, Chen Fan made it through three people in the depths of the opposition, and when he was about to pass the ball to Robin van Persie, he was brought down.
"Tick! ……”
The referee's whistle blew and Arsenal won a free-kick in excellent position.
Chen Fan was standing behind the football, and he wanted to take the free kick himself.
There was concern in the eyes of Tottenham fans, after all, the player who created the miracle of a free-kick quadruple and hit 100 per cent of the target.
The Tottenham goalkeeper was also very nervous to make the tallest Peter. Crouch stands on the far right side of the human wall.
"Tick! ……”
After the wall was lined up, the referee blew a whistle, and Chen Fan slowly ran towards the football, and then the football flew up from the turf!
The ball flew over Van der Vaart's head and then plummeted down to the right side of the goal!
Three to three!
Chen Fan took advantage of the free kick opportunity to help Arsenal equalize again!
Tottenham fans shook their heads after wailing, there is no way, it's not that our players are not doing well, but this young man is too good......
However, they had a catchy effect tonight, with the same young Bale netting a brilliant goal.
In the end, the north London derby ended with a score of 3-3, and Arsenal walked away from White Hart Lane, rewriting the Premier League unbeaten record to 54 games!
They are just four games away from AC Milan's record of 58 games unbeaten in Europe's top flights.
