Chapter 361: The Impact of Rain
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's goal caught everyone off guard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Even Jurgen Klopp's celebration after the goal looked a little out of touch with the normal reaction.
Szczesny froze in place, not even making a save, as if he was watching the football go into the net.
However, it is a bit of a mistaken statement because Szczesny didn't see the ball when Aubameyang finished shooting.
The Arsenal fans who are still raising the mood are already a little blindsided, are we helping the opponent celebrate?
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was not shy at all, rushing to the sidelines with great excitement and enjoying the cheers with open arms.
Although he also knew that those cries were not dedicated to him.
The British were never polite, and they immediately turned around and scolded Aubameyang when they saw the pride on his face.
Aubameyang didn't care about this, and put his hand to his ear and made a listening motion, which caused an explosion on the spot.
Lin Yi walked over with a smile and patted him on the shoulder, "It's okay, I didn't see it before, you were so mocking." ”
"Haha, there's a lot more you don't see. Wait for another pass like that, their defenders are really slow. ”
As he said this, he turned his head and snorted at Mert Sak.
Royce also approached very unkindly, "Pierre is right, Pell's speed is a bit outrageous. ”
Lin Yi then remembered that Mertesacker and Ozil are both German internationals, and they should be familiar with Reuss.
The goal that came in the first three minutes really gave Arsenal a big downfall.
Arsene Wenger couldn't help but stand up and called Arteta over to set things up.
Lin Yi looked at Cazorla and Ozil, who were standing outside the center circle waiting for kick-off, "Actually, I really should go to Ramsey." ”
Giroud and Sanchez didn't expect to come together in the centre circle so soon, with the two players who had never touched the ball looking at each other and smiling bitterly.
"You pull it out, the two full-backs aren't fast, I should be able to deal with it."
'You can cross too, I think I should be able to stand up to Hummels, who hasn't been in great form lately.'
As the two men spoke, the referee signalled that they were ready to kick off, and Giroud knocked the ball over and ran forward.
Alexis Sanchez turned around and gave the ball to Mesut Ozil, but it wasn't just them, Arsenal didn't touch the ball except for Szczesny, who scooped the ball out of the net once.
Klopp whispered something to Kyle on the sidelines, looking like he was already in stock.
Arsene Wenger, on the other hand, was a bit of a restless, getting up and walking to the sidelines several times and loudly instructing his players to make tactical adjustments.
Arsenal's quality is undoubted, and the goal is to break through fourth this season, and the strongest man is definitely in the squad.
But Dortmund's opening three-board axe today was really fast and ruthless, and it cut them a little confused.
"We saw that Arsenal were a little bit pressed by their opponents, their attack was a little disorganized for a while, and they couldn't hit the ball to the edge of the Dortmund penalty area. Mesut Ozil was heavily defended by his compatriots today and played uncomfortably. ”
Once again, Bender used his physical advantage to force Ozil out of balance and lose the football.
Bender, who broke the ball, did not stick to the ball either, and handed the ball directly to Gundogan with a horizontal knock.
"Dortmund's counter-attack is coming again, and Gundogan and Shaheen are relatively accurate at the back."
Gundogan didn't rush the ball forward, he just slowly controlled the ball and slowed down the tempo of the game.
This treatment made the Arsenal players even more anxious, and they had to pounce on Dortmund to lay siege.
Lin Yi watched with satisfaction as his opponent's position became higher and higher, if you don't press it out like this, how can we have a chance?
Mikel Arteta and Cazorla were already pressed high as they chased the ball-winning Gundogan and Saheen in an attempt to disrupt the tempo.
Unfortunately, these two people are also very calm with the ball, and the back and forth passing increases the running distance of the Arsenal players.
Arteta understood a little bit of what Lin Yi meant by what he said to him before the game, and he really should go to Ramsey.
Cazorla and himself are not the kind of players who have great physical fitness, and Ramsey not only covers a large area, but also has a lot of energy, and it will not be a big problem to run the whole game.
'Arsenal are in a hurry now because they are at home and they are more anxious to equalise and look for a comeback.
'Hey, that's true, but the more impatient you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes, and Dortmund have a strong ability to take chances.'
Before Zhang Lu's words fell, Arsenal's back line suddenly made a mistake, the middle of the empty goal was wide open, and Gundogan passed the ball quickly.
Lin Yi was the first to react, as he slipped between Koscielny and Mertesacker and grabbed the ball.
Gundogan's overhead pass flew high, but Lin Yi just rubbed his shoulder and stopped the ball in front of him.
"Sure enough! Dortmund's counterattack was given to Lin Yi, and Lin Yi brought the ball forward! Ay? Didn't shoot? It's a change of direction! ”
Lin Yi twisted the ball to the side and brought it to the right side of the penalty area when Sczesny almost gave up.
Szczesny had to retreat to the front of the goal, giving up his intention to attack, but he knew Lin Yi's footwork.
Looking at Szczesny's retreat, Lin Yi smiled slightly, it doesn't matter if you don't come out, I can still find the angle.
This is it!
Running to the side of the penalty area, about fifteen meters away from the goal, Lin Yi slammed his left foot to the ground, twisted his body, and opened his left arm and right leg.
Szczesny didn't understand Lin Yi's dribbling and shooting options, but he still sank nervously.
Kaka, who was on the sidelines, watched Lin Yi's movements and couldn't help but shout, "Damn!" This can also be done?! ”
Everyone turned to look at Kaka, not understanding what the Brazilians were called here.
And just when they turned their heads, Lin Yi's right foot had already pumped on the football.
The ball that he pulled out didn't have much spin and arc, and jumped to the opposite corner of the goal without fancy.
Standing in the middle of the goal, Szczesny had already made a good judgment and was ready to make a save.
However, the speed of Lin Yi's shot was too fast, which was not surprising at all, and it could even be said that it was a shot that left enough time for the goalkeeper to defend, and finally went into the net.
Szczesny, who rose to his feet, ended up on the ground, and he didn't touch anything.
The soccer ball slammed into the net, causing the whole goal to tremble.
Lin Yi's whole body seemed to float up after this kick, which shows how much power his kick will have.
Szczesny lay there, looking at the football and the goal, and Lin Yi, who turned and ran to his teammates to start celebrating, punched the ground hard.
Lin Yi rushed towards Gundogan, jumped on top of him, and Gundogan, whose face was full of stubble, lifted Lin up.
The rest of Dortmund gathered around and hugged the captain who scored such a wonderful goal.
"Why did you take the ball to that angle before you shot it?" Royce was the first to ask this question.
"First of all, if I keep going, Szczesny's attack will interfere with my shot. Secondly, I made a bet with Kaka haha. ”
For the explanation of the second half of the sentence, everyone was speechless and sympathetic to the newcomer Kaka.
Dare to bet with someone as cunning as Lin Yi, I have to say that Kaka's understanding of Dortmund is really not deep enough.
The collapse of Arsenal's defence was always so unexpected, and Dortmund had already taken a two-goal lead not long after the opening kick-off.
Arsene Wenger paced back and forth on the sidelines, reflecting on his formation, what was wrong with my arrangement?
By this time, Giroud and Sanchez had already stood in the centre circle for the second time to kick off, and Cazorla, who had the ball, controlled the football and slowly pushed forward.
Mesut Ozil was on the other side of the pitch, waiting for an opportunity.
"Arsenal's defense is a bit weak today, Lin Yi returned to the position of the forward midfielder, but the Arsenal midfielder only arranged a Arteta with more organizational ability than defensive ability, and it is difficult for him to impose any restrictions on Lin Yi."
"Hehe, Wenger probably didn't expect Klopp's lineup to be like this, and he also wanted to suppress the opponent with attack."
Lin Yi's range of activities has now become larger and larger, and when he plays as a striker, he goes from the middle circle to the opponent's penalty area.
Now he has retreated to a midfield position, and many times fans will find that he will retreat to the front of his own penalty area.
Such a change is naturally a good thing for Dortmund, although Lin Yi's defensive ability is average, but you must know that his prediction ability can be said to be extremely strong, and many times he even knows the landing point better than the opponent's pass.
Moreover, Lin Yi's defensive skills are generally true, but his flexibility, reaction and speed can make up for these shortcomings to a certain extent.
"Cazorla's pass, Sanchez didn't receive it, but it was cut off by Lin Yi."
"Hehe, I now find that Lin Yi is running more and more distance on the field, and this kind of running shows that his integration with Dortmund is constantly strengthening."
"Although Dortmund only got five points in the first three rounds of the league, if they continue like this, they will definitely be able to recover from it."
Arsenal are very uncomfortable, Mertesacker is the main central defender in the positional battle, and it is really difficult for him to play against Dortmund's two strikers today.
Wanting Koscielny to go to see two opponents by himself is a bit too harsh to be honest.
'Borussia Dortmund have clearly taken advantage of the weaknesses in Arsenal's defence and are attacking the weaknesses of their opponents again and again.
"Hey, that's right. Mertesacker was supposed to be used to one-on-one Lin Yi to keep him off the ball as much as possible, but now that Lin Yi has retreated to the forward position, Mertesacker is used to defend two speed forwards, which is very difficult. ”
Lin took a turn after breaking the ball, then shook the counter-attacking Sanchez to the other side with a back-heel knock, and then he easily used his physical advantage to jam the Chilean.
Sanchez, as a striker from Barcelona, has a strong sense of counter-robbery in the frontcourt, and Lin Yi has been following Lin Yi closely in the second half, trying to break the ball.
And Lin Yi gave full play to the advantage of his long legs, and several times Sanchez was about to succeed, but watched Lin Yi stretch his legs and circle the ball away.
"Lin Yi has gotten rid of the opponent's defense and come to the midfield, and he has a kicking wall with Gundogan, hey? Gundogan did not pass the ball back to Lin Yi, but directly got up and passed a through plug over the top. It's a very obvious way of playing, I just know that your centre-back is slow to turn, so I take advantage of this weakness and hit it hard. ”
Gundogan's pass is still going to Aubameyang, and for Aubameyang, who is extremely fast and has good skills at his feet, it is really not difficult to deal with such a pass.
Although his movements were not as chic as Lin Yi's looks, the effect was not satisfactory.
Mertesacker couldn't catch up with him, and Koscielny was still coming at him......
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang took a moment to watch his opponent's movement and then crossed lightly and grazed Koscielny's foot to Reus, who was cut in the back row.
Reus did well to avoid an offside position and then picked up his right leg on the line of the box.
If Lin Yi's long-range shot is full of power, Royce's long-range shot is more than Lin Yi's strength.
It's hard to imagine such a clean lad being able to shoot such a lethal shot.
Szczesny had already taken precautions when Koscielny rushed towards Aubameyang, but when Reus did get to his feet, he found that no matter what he was prepared for, his opponent's shot was difficult to stop.
"Reus's long shot! Szczesny is slow! Oops, the ball bounced off the inside of the post, Szczesny reacted quickly and held the ball on the spot, it was a great opportunity, and Reuss missed the shot. ”
Kaka, who was sitting under the canopy but could still feel the dampness brought by the light rain in London, couldn't help but think of Lin Yi's words.
"I hate rainy days because the wet weather changes the angle and the power and the precision of the football."
If it's a sunny day, Marco's shot will probably really go in, right?
Royce kicked the air hard and when he finished the shot, he thought it was the goal.
Who would have thought that the football would visibly slip on their boots and there would be an unexpected offset.
Szczesny was so frightened that he lay on the ground and took several deep breaths to calm his mood.
Lin Yi shook his head, obviously sympathetic to Royce's luck.
Szczesny didn't dare to let the ball stay in his own half for too long, and saw an opening in the front court, and drove the ball out with a big foot. (To be continued.) )
