84 evenly matched in the first half

Not long ago, Manuel Neuer, the double first-choice goalkeeper of Bayern Munich and the German national team, won the Goalkeeper of the Year award from the International Federation of Football and Statistics for the fourth time in a row. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The achievement of four consecutive championships is second only to the Spanish goalkeeper Igor Casillas, who has won the five-time goalkeeper of the year, and the Italian goalkeeper who has also won the goalkeeper of the year four times, the 39-year-old "youngster" Gianluigi Buffon, surpassing Bayern, who has won the goalkeeper of the year three times, and the predecessor of the German team, Oliver Kahn.

The German media quickly boasted about the five reasons why Neuer is the world's No. 1 goalkeeper: setting records, trophs, setting goalkeeper standards, redefining what it means to be a goalkeeper for fans around the world, and being the number one saver.

In the end, Neuer is the best goalkeeper in the history of football.

Whether you admit it or not, the Germans admit it anyway.

Under the stars, the Emirates Stadium was filled with deafening sounds, Arsenal's team song echoed in every corner of the stadium, and the cheers were presented by the silent Bayern fans from afar.

Theo Walcott's violent shot was constantly replayed on the pitch screen, as well as the world's No. 1 goalkeeper Manuel Neuer, who fell to his knees with his arms raised after losing the ball.

One of the biggest charms of football is that you are stronger than me, but it doesn't mean that you can easily beat me, I am weaker than you but the first to score.

Although in the vast majority of cases, the law of the jungle is also a natural law in the football world, it does not mean that the weak have no chance at all in the face of the strong.

Many times we often say that so-and-so team is upset, so-and-so team is a dark horse, and defeating the strong with the weak is actually part of football.

In the 23rd minute, Bayern, who was behind the score, launched an attack, Arjan Robben pretended to cut inside on the right, but sent a through ball to Marcio Raphinha who was inserted behind, the Brazilian right-back went down to cross the ball to the back point, and the Chilean all-round midfielder Arturo Vidal's header was confiscated by the palm of the standing position, but the referee Anastasiaos Sidiropoulos blew a foul on Vidal when he was fighting for the top and awarded Arsenal's set-piece.

As in the first leg, Arsenal led in the first half again, but the difference was that this time the players on the field showed a very positive mentality, facing a strong opponent, daring to fight and dare to make moves.

Seeing that Arsenal rarely looked very calm under Bayern's high pressing, in this regard, Zhan Jun, the ace commentator of Yueshi live broadcast, made his own analysis: "Bayern's midfielders are very active in pressing and pressing in the frontcourt, and Arsenal did not panic in the face of high pressure as before, and took the initiative to hand over the ball." The reason is simple, they also have the same doormen as Neuer. ”

Once the Bayern players are besieged, Arsenal's ball carrier will resolutely and decisively pass the ball to Zhang Zhetian, and through his wide range of runs and passes, Bayern's high pressing tactics will be resolved.

Zhang Zhetian will also use Dongfeng Express from time to time to suppress Bayern's defenders and dare not defend the premise, resulting in Bayern's third-line disjointed, the effect of high-position pressing tactics is greatly reduced, and Arsenal is getting braver and braver.

In the 34th minute, Schodran Mustafi found that the front field was empty, dribbled to the right side and passed a through ball, Walcott inserted it into the right side of the penalty area from a small angle and shot again, but unfortunately this time the shot hit the side netting.

Although they couldn't score, the Gunners fans at the scene applauded and encouraged.

Carlo Ancelotti, who stood outside the touchline in the technical area, spread his hands and expressed his displeasure with the team's performance.

"Although Mustafi made a key pass, we have to see that it was Zhang Zhetian who instigated this attack. He first boldly dribbled out of the penalty area, and the opponent's attention was on him, completely unaware that Mustafi took the opportunity to slip up front before Zhang Zhetian passed the ball to Mustafi, and then there was Mustafi to Walcott's through ball. ”

In the 37th minute, Vidal won the ball at the top of the arc in the penalty area and tried a long-range shot, but the ball went over the crossbar.

One minute later, Robben cut inside on the right side to the edge of the penalty area to send a cross, Laurent Koscielny did not reach the ball, Robert Lewandowski cut into the box in an offside position and volleyed the goal, just in time to be caught by the attacking palm Zhetian with both palms.

Seeing that his mistake did not result in the goal being conceded, Koscielny raised his hand to Zhang Zhetian and apologized.

Neuer, who was standing at the arc of the penalty area, raised his eyebrows, the position of this Huaguo goalkeeper is too accurate, Ter Stegen is his senior brother, but I don't think it can be compared to this junior brother.

(Ter Stegen faints crying in the toilet)

In the 41st minute, Bayern counterattacked, Lewandowski passed to Thiago Alcantara in the middle on the left, Thiago immediately distributed to Robben on the right, Robben dribbled to the big penalty area and suddenly shot from a distance, because the angle was too positive, Zhang Zhetian easily held the shot in his arms.

In the 45th minute, Arsenal got a free kick opportunity on the right side of the penalty area, Alex Sanchez hit the goal directly, and it was easily confiscated by Neuer.

After that, neither side organized an attack again, and the first half was quickly ended.

"Director Zhang, have you noticed that Arsenal is a little different this time?"

"Mr. Zhan is referring to Bayern's attack without putting too much pressure on Arsenal."

"In the end, it was Coach Zhang, and throughout the first half, we found that Zhang Zhetian's good performance was mainly in the passing organization, except for Vidal's header with a foul and Lewandowski's volley was slightly threatening, there were no beautiful saves."

"Shouldn't that be a good thing? We often say that a certain goalkeeper has a divine save, and a certain goalkeeper saves against the sky, but this is not a good thing, which shows that the team is passively beaten, the back is pitted, and the goalkeeper needs to fill the hole everywhere. Isn't it a good thing that there are fewer saves, which means that the team's defense is doing well? ”

"Director Zhang is right, contrary to Bayern who did not create many threatening shots, Arsenal has several attacks in addition to one goal, and on the whole, Arsenal has a slight advantage. This was unthinkable before, you know, Bayern's overall strength is above Arsenal. ”

"Hehe, who said that if you are strong, you will definitely win? When it comes to football, anything is possible. ”

"A one-goal lead is not safe, whether Arsenal at home will go all out in the second half, or take the initiative to attack like the first half to score another goal to kill the game, spectators and friends, don't go away, let's wait and see after 15 minutes."
