88 Give it a go

No. 6 Curtis Davis replaces Calum Chambers, No. 20 Michael Essien replaces Jake Wilshere, and No. 9 Aleksandr Mitrovic replaces Mathieu Flamini. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Niu Shuai's substitution sparked heated discussions from all sides, especially Davies replacing Chambers, because after the substitution, Hull City only had two central defenders.

It stands to reason that a centre-back should be replaced by a midfielder, after all, Hull City are in a back three.

"In the case of one less person and the score is still behind, the central defender actually changes to the central defender, this substitution idea is very puzzling." In the Sky Sports studio, as a guest commentator on the game, Arsenal legend Thierry Henry said.

Martin Taylor's eyes were also full of doubts, he understood Niu Shuai for three people in one go, but what he didn't understand was the idea of substitution.

Another guest, England's legendary striker Gary Lineker, touched his chin and said to himself: "Three substitutions, a central defender, a midfielder, a striker, replaced by a central defender, a forward midfielder, a back midfielder, one less central defender, the midfielder has not changed, there is one more striker, is it ......"

On screen, Mitrovic came on the pitch and spoke to Robin van Persie before Van Persie walked back. Essien came on and stood not far from the two centre-backs, with Bastian Schweinsteiger shouting to his team-mates around him, and Mohamed Sissoko moving forward alongside Robin van Persie.

It was a dead-ball chance shortly after the restart, and Hull City changed three men in one go, positioning the players on the pitch.

With Essien positioned at the back, between Schweinsteiger and the two centre-backs, and Sissoko positioned forward to parallel to Robin van Persie, the formation could be seen as 2-1-1-2-3.

Lineker's eyes lit up, he slapped the table, and shouted: "The head coach of Hull City is crazy, this is going to fight for his life!" ”

Taylor's eyes lit up, fighting? That's right, in the case of one less person and the score is still behind, if you don't fight for your life at this time, when will you wait?

Henry nodded slightly, but there was some shock in his eyes, there is no shortage of managers in world football who do crazy things when the score is down, such as the madman Jose Mourinho and the madman Marcelo Bielsa......

But the team they coach is not a weak team like Hull City, because of high-quality resources, they have crazy capital.

Under normal circumstances, unless it is necessary to fight for relegation, in the long marathon format of the league, the relegation strategy of the weak team will take the battle of Tian Ji horse racing for some games: in the face of a strong team if there is no hope of winning, a small loss is a victory, keep the vitality, score points on the middle and lower teams, and rarely fight with the strong team in the early stage of the league.

This is not to say that the weak team plays match-fixing and gives points to the strong team, but the "way of survival" of the weak team in the top league.

Niu Shuai's move makes people feel that he would rather die than give in, and makes people feel that he has not integrated into the "unspoken rules" of the Premier League.

"Boss, why did you replace Chambers? There are only two defenders, the defense is too weak, Arsenal has a strong attack, and they are not afraid of conceding a lot of goals? Mike Phelan asked, puzzled.

Niu Shuai, who crossed his arms, said lightly: "Offense is the best defense, in this time period, since the score is behind, and there is one less person, it is better to give it a go, and there is still hope for an equalizer, Arsenal is not Chelsea, not Juventus, not Atletico Madrid." ”

After a pause, Niu Shuai said softly: "Losing a goal, it is a loss, losing two or more goals, it is also a loss, since they are all losing, in the current situation of only losing one goal, we have to attack with all our might, strive for a goal, even if we lose in the end, it also shows our determination, although we are a small team, we will not let others slaughter, even if we lose, we will lose so that the other party is afraid!" ”

Even if you lose, you have to lose to make the other party afraid!

Phelan kept repeating the words, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The momentum of the leader, I seem to have seen it in the lord.

In the 61st minute, Bastian Schweinsteiger received a pass from Essien in the back field and immediately passed a long pass to Mitrovic in the front, the tall Serbian header went back to the top, Van Persie volleyed a left-footed long shot unmarked, but unfortunately the lintel came out, scaring the Czech goalkeeper Peter Cech in a cold sweat.

Van Persie shook his hand hard and muttered, as if he was not satisfied with the shot he had just made.

In the 63rd minute, Joel Campbell cut inside on the right and suddenly sent a through ball from the right, Sergi Gnabry started quickly to dodge Schkoderan Mustafi's right-footed sweep that was saved by Cech.

In the 66th minute, Arsenal counter-attacked, Mesut Ozil split the ball to the right, Theo Walcott received the ball and started it, and the veteran defender Martin Cáceres shoveled the ball out of bounds.

In the 72nd minute, Essien grabbed the ball at the feet of Alex Iwobi and passed to Schweinsteiger, the German quickly passed to Van Persie, who was not far away, Van Persie went straight to the left, Gnabry cut inside after receiving the ball, grabbed the front heel on Mustafi and passed to Van Persie who moved to the left side, Van Persie crossed with his left foot, Mitrovic jumped high and pressed Laurent Koscielny to head the goal, Cech couldn't save, but unfortunately the home goal mutinied, the ball hit the right post and popped up, Campbell was ready to grab the point, Nacho Monreal kicked the ball out first.

Mitrovic yelled at the sky, and Van Persie raised his hands and applauded his teammates.

Seeing such an opportunity but being rejected by the goalpost, the whole stadium resounded with a sound of regret, and Arsenal coach Arsène Wenger on the sidelines wiped his sweat and glanced at Niu Shuai with palpitations.

Hull City, who played with one less man, attacked aggressively after conceding the goal, and got a lot of chances, although they failed to score, but it was obvious that the morale of Hull City's players was strong, and they actually suppressed Arsenal, who had the upper hand before, at this stage.

In order to keep the scoreline, Arsene Wenger brought on Kieran Gibbs, Granit Xhaka and Mohamed Elneny, replacing Mesut Ozil, Sandy Cazorla and Iwobi with two central midfielders.

Seeing Arsenal's substitution, Niu Shuai called Schweinsteiger to the sidelines: "The opponent has strengthened the defense in the middle, you and Robin have joined forces with Campbell and Gnabry to attack the side, and asked Sissoko and Mitro to shoot when they have a chance in the opponent's penalty area, and create a second landing point to create a shooting opportunity if they don't have a chance." ”

patted the little pig on the shoulder, Niu Shuai smiled slightly, and said: "Tell Davis to also go to the penalty area to compete for the top, with Cáceres and Essien in the backfield, with these two old fritters, I am not afraid of Arsenal with only two guns, not to mention, their physical strength is also running." ”
