Arsenal boss Arsène Wenger was in attendance with Olivier Giroud, while Chelsea manager Antonio Conte was in attendance with captain Gary Cahill. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Although he lost, Conte did not see a trace of unhappiness on his face, after all, the gap between the two games was not so easy to catch up, and compared with the championship opponent, Chelsea's advantage is the greatest, that is, single-line combat, no European tasks, and the following schedule, in addition to the FA Cup, is the league, and the physical advantage is great.

Behind them, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City all have European competitions, plus the FA Cup, and the third-tier battle is bound to be distracted in the league.

Liverpool and Manchester United in fifth and sixth place? Although the former only plays in the league like Chelsea, Jurgen Klopp's team has not only lost in the cup since the beginning of the New Year, but also has not won five games in the league. The latter also has European tasks, and has to fight for the Champions League seat, Jose Mourinho's first year, spent more than 100 million transfer fees, and is destined to only fight for a European seat, with Manchester United's giant status, it is undoubtedly a failure.

Despite his calm face, you can still see the relaxed look of the Frenchman's relief, although the game was won thrillingly, the win was unexpected, but to bite the top of the table and retain the title spot, Wenger's team has been able to do their best.

– What do you think about the team's loss (winning)?

Antonio Conte: We should have scored at least one goal in the first half. Alonso's must-have goal was saved by the goalkeeper. Alonso fouled? I felt like it was a normal physical collision and the arm just inadvertently hit him in the face. It's a pity that they couldn't score in the first half, but Arsenal's No.1 goalkeeper did well, and it was his brilliant performance that allowed Arsenal to enter the second half without conceding a goal. I have to admit that I was a bit slow in the second half, I didn't expect them to change tactics at half-time. Arsenal disrupted our rhythm with a frantic press attack, and with one man less of us being able to hold on until the end before conceding a goal, my players did their best. We lost, but we were six points ahead and don't forget, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Manchester City, they still have the Champions League and the Europa League, so we still have a big advantage.

Arsene Wenger: We were lucky to keep a clean sheet in the first half because we didn't press enough defensively and most of the players didn't play well in the first half. Having a problem with the starting lineup? Maybe, but there's a position where you've seen it all and he's got the man of the match and he did so well on his debut in a high-level league like the Premier League, and it's the first time I've seen it in 20 years. Why not start Cech? He's fine, he's training well, he's physically great, he's always ready to play. Bellerin's injury? [Grim] has already arranged for him to go to the hospital for a check-up, we need to wait for the results of the check-up, and Alonso's header should be invalidated even if it is a goal because it is unethical. The passivity in the first half made me realise that I had to make a change, so I brought on Oliver [and Giroud with a smile] to make the team more direct in attack, we had to put pressure on the opposition in the final third, and we did well in the second half. Of course, it's risky and if we lose possession of the ball we are in great danger at the back of the open and that requires our goalkeeper to be able to extend his range outside the box, which is why I started because that's his style of play.

- With such a phenomenal performance on the spot, will he continue to be the starting goalkeeper in the following games?

Arsene Wenger: We've got three world-class goalkeepers and I'm happy with them, they all have the quality to start and it's a happy worry for us, but we have to make the best choice.

The reporters looked at each other, this is just nonsense.

- I heard that Zhang completed the transfer procedures at the last minute of the transfer deadline, as a Chinese, he has not been selected for the Chinese national team, according to the new labor law rules, Zhang is unable to obtain a labor certificate, even if he uses the special genius clause to apply, it will take half a month to pass the hearing at the earliest, right?

Arsene Wenger smiled: "The palm doesn't need a labor certificate because he has permanent residency in the European Union." ”

As soon as Wenger's voice fell, the audience was in an uproar.

Permanent residence refers to permanent residence in Germany under Article 9 of the Residence Act and permanent residence in the European Union under Article 9a, both of which have the same application conditions, and the latter can in principle reside and work in any country of the European Union.

Although the UK left the EU through elections last year, it will take two or three years to complete, so now players from EU countries or players with EU permanent status can play in the Premier League.

Zhang Zhetian went to Germany at the age of 6, and after more than ten years of German career, he had already applied for dual residency in Germany and the European Union.

……

The Guardian: 12 saves in the whole game, indirectly instigated the counter-attack director to kill the goal, saved the must-score goal at the last moment to keep the door open, Arsenal's new No. 1 debut shined, especially the adventurous and exciting way of goal, which will become another beautiful scenery in the Premier League.

The Telegraph: Before the game, many people questioned Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger's starting goalkeeper, but after the game, all the criticism, questioning and ridicule disappeared. The save in the 13th minute was reminiscent of the save of the century when Three Lions international Banks saved the ball king Pele more than 40 years ago. The best on the spot is well deserved.

The Times: At the end of the game, the ugly-looking Chelsea president in the stands couldn't figure out why a strong, well-formed team would lose to a wounded, midfielded Arsenal. The Chinese goalkeeper who came out of nowhere is undoubtedly the key contributor to Arsenal's victory, whether it is Costa who is the top scorer in the list, or Hazard, who is known as the world's third player, only under Melo, can not break through the door guarded by a pair of giant palms. In the post-match interview, a reporter asked why he chose Arsenal instead of Manchester City, and the Chinese goalkeeper, who is not yet 20 years old, replied: Because of Wenger, I came.

Daily Mail: Our reporter interviewed Arsenal goalkeeper Zhang Zhetian, who won the best player award on the spot, after the game, and asked about his favorite goalkeeper, Zhang said with a look of reverence and a firm tone: Yashin, Lev Yashin.

……

In a dark room, on a 50-inch monitor, there is a picture of Zhang Zhetian raising his hands and cheering.

A bald man with bandages on his arms and adhesive tape on his face gritted his teeth and said: "This bastard turned out to be in London, and when I am healed, I will come to you to settle accounts!" ”
