Chapter Eighty-Seven: No One Else
When I was a child, my father took me to steal other people's plums in the village, and asked me to climb the tree to pick them, he was not far away, and suddenly found that someone was coming, so he pointed to me on the tree and scolded: "Stinky boy, hurry up and roll down for me, steal and eat other people's plums, see if I don't kill you!"
The family hurriedly said, "It's okay, it's okay, the child is naughty, come, pick more and eat at home..."
The key has been found, all that remains is to open the door in unison. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In fact, the door is not difficult to push open.
If Paris Saint-Germain only take one point at the end of this game, they will be eliminated from the tournament because of their record even if they end up with the same number of points as Arsenal. With more than 10 minutes remaining, they couldn't afford to give up their chances.
An open situation is the soil of chance, and as soon as Arsenal's right side is opened, Paris Saint-Germain can only tilt their small defensive strength to this side. As the offensive intensified, so did the density of people in this area. Meanwhile, the closely guarded Overmars made a few runs back and forth, but Vieira's well-timed split in the middle solved all the problems.
Yes, the distance is not only to break the two-man rotation between the Dutch, but also to attract enough firepower for Overmars and open up enough space!
Since it is a breaking point, then try to create a one-on-one opportunity, since it is a thigh, then let more people hug it, these two points are integrated in a simple sentence "stay away from you", until the 78th minute of the game, it is not revealed!
Arsene Wenger, who was about to make a substitution, was able to hold back his frustration in a few fruitful waves of attack, and his patience paid off perfectly.
In the 82nd minute of the game, in front of the Arsenal middle penalty area, Adams successfully broke the ball and handed over a straight plug to Bergkamp, who retreated to the center circle arc. The Paris Saint-Germain defense immediately sounded the alarm, and before the Dutchman had a chance to turn around, the two were already hugging in the middle.
The most important cornerstone of a master's success is the high level of performance over the years, which is based on the dual foundation of ability and confidence, which allows them to be more creative than the top players. At this point in the game, when everyone was slowing down, Bergkamp did not force a turn, knocked the ball back with his right foot, leaned slightly to the right, and rubbed his left foot lightly when he was just staggered between the two top grabbers!
The two guys who came up on the front and back feet could only watch the ball drill through the tiny space between their waists, and no part of their bodies could stop this tricky pass except their hands!
The outrageously precise passing route made Ljungberg's next choice very comfortable.
Straight forward, rush!
If you want to play a counter-attack, this kind of penetrating pass is the most effective weapon. The Swede calmly accepted the gift, rushed forward on the right side, rushed in a straight line for about ten meters, and in the face of the opponent who fought and retreated, he did not choose to force a breakthrough that he was not good at, and took a step sideways to the right.
The Frenchman's super big picture view was perfectly reflected at this time, just when the Paris Saint-Germain soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and were ready to stabilize their position to resolve the crisis, he did not choose to retreat Anelka, who responded to him, with his left foot buckled to the right, his body leaned back, and his long legs threw out a wonderful arc easily!
Overmars had already shaken off the defenders two positions before receiving the ball.
The absolute advantage of speed requires plenty of space and tailor-made passes to make the most of it, and the Arsenal men pushed it to the limit in this attack. The Dutchman doesn't need to be physically tangled with the opponent at all, and it doesn't even matter if the ball is a little bigger!
Of course, as one of the pillars of the team, Overmars will not leave difficulties to others. After rushing to the outside of the penalty area with the ball, stop suddenly, change the line, and go straight to the middle!
This choice of favoring Tiger Mountain not only creates opportunities for his teammates to grab points, but also keeps his passing route from being too long and tortuous.
Standing in front of him at this time was a central defender who came up to complement the defense, and in the face of the Dutchman, who had a perfect combination of speed and technique, he could only keep retreating. has been pressed to the front of the small penalty area two meters, can directly threaten the goalkeeper, the defenders who have no way to retreat can only choose to grab!
Overmars, who had been patiently waiting for this moment, like a hunter who had finally waited for his goal, aimed at the opponent's long legs, knocked the ball to the left with his right foot, and walked forward with his left foot!
Breakthrough!
When the Dutchman dribbled to the baseline, although there was no angle to shoot, the entire Paris Saint-Germain defence had been compressed to the extreme. An easy inverted triangle cross gave the guy who had been playing soy sauce in the attack a wonderful kick.
However, Yu Mo's luck was really average, and the heavy artillery bombardment in the big penalty area was finally blocked by someone on the goal line with his body. On the contrary, Anelka, who has been working hard to make wedding clothes for his teammates, was favored by Lady Luck, and he grabbed a point in the goalmouth scuffle and successfully made up for it!
After the goal, the Frenchman was still a little dazed after a wild celebration.
After almost 90 minutes of busy work, you did what you wanted to do, and you did what you didn't want to do?
What the hell is going on here?
......
The match ended smoothly after 10 minutes, and even if there was no reluctance, PSG still perfectly interpreted the glorious image of "standing and dying". But to be honest, they played their best in this game, and the loss was just unwilling to accept the end of taking a point and leaving, there is nothing to regret.
Having secured a place in the round of 16 after two wins from their direct rivals, Arsenal will only need to fight for top spot in the group for the next two games. This result would have accounted for the vast majority of pre-match predictions, but the twists and turns of the process were unexpected by many people.
Because the tactics designed by You Mo were too short to play, they couldn't let more people see the clues for the time being, so the storm was still only blowing inside.
In the dressing room after the game.
"I pondered what you said last time, and I think their reaction seems to be the result of being blinded by worldly prejudices."
A while after the game ended, Overmars was still a little excited, and after seizing the time to pack his things, the Dutchman walked quickly in front of Yumo and patted his opponent on the shoulder.
His voice was not loud, but the Frenchman who had pricked up his ears to listen still looked at the same time. At the same time, the Englishman, who had heard the content clearly, smiled.
This is not surprising.
The problem of physical distribution that Youmo said in public was the mistake that Petit made in this game, so the French were most afraid that others would bring up the old story and make them unable to get off the stage. In addition, some extreme guys blame the French for conceding the goal, although there is a suspicion of blame, but the English are happy to do so.
"Yes, it takes a plan to surpass yourself, and playing as hard as you can is only a small part of it."
The guy who was the focus of everyone's eyes didn't have a smug expression, but when he came out, it made the roots of the French gang's hatred itch.
Among them is Wiltord.
You guy, can you stop adding fuel to the fire, brother is difficult to do now, do you know?
"It's kind of interesting, according to you, try your best and see how luck is a sign of weakness?"
In the locker room, where the smell of gunpowder was rising, Bergkamp added a handful of firewood at the right time.
However, the French did not dare to do anything with this hot-tempered bigwig, and if they had opinions, they could only complain among their compatriots.
"What do you think?" Yumo turned to Ovimas and asked.
"I think a really strong person doesn't worry about whether he can perform at a critical moment. So in the long run, it's important to adapt your game to your opponents. Especially for a player with a characteristic like me, blindly rushing and hitting is not a brave style, but a direct reflection of lack of confidence! ”
After the Dutchman said this, the dressing room fell into a brief silence.
Not only the French, but also the English did not look good.
The traditional British style is all about punching and punching, and the most proud thing is the fighting spirit of a man. Unfortunately, the reality is unforgiving, since winning the World Cup on home in 66, England has not only had dismal results in major competitions in the past 32 years, but has not even appeared a world-class superstar!
The former can explain many reasons, and the latter is really overwhelming.
There is no doubt that the soil of England does not produce top superstars. The so-called "manly fight" is more of a manifestation of the courage of the horseman who has no choice.
Their Arsenal side began to change amid skepticism, and so far there are still plenty of conservative Englishmen who are skeptical of technical football. Even among them, they all felt that these skilled guys in front of them lacked something in their will, and they were not as brave and tenacious as their Englishmen.
Although the words of the Dutch are introspective, the speaker has no intention, and the listener has a heart, and it is difficult for the face-loving English to accept the big hat of "lack of confidence".
"That's what you Dutch think, and here in England, it's respect for the sport to be 100 per cent passionate everywhere!" Martin Keown was a quick temper, and after turning around and finding that no one jumped out to refute, he couldn't help but say in a rough voice.
"Passion?" Bergkamp sneered and stared straight at the other party, "There are so many people in this world who have a passion for the sport, and there are countless people who can do what you said. So in my opinion, the guys who stay at the stage of enthusiasm will not be very productive! ”
"Alright, Martin, Dennis, that's the end of the discussion. The weekend was our arch-rivals Tottenham and hopefully you can still deliver your last-minute performances. ”
Adams' words brought the smoked dressing room debate to an end, and the game was left without the excitement of a winner or the nervousness that preceded the derby.
Cultural differences bring about differences in perception, and everyone understands in their hearts that it is good for them to maintain a professional attitude together, and it is not easy for anyone to convince anyone.
......
After qualifying for the last 16 of the Champions League two rounds ahead of schedule, the London media is about to go crazy.
Arsenal have also featured at the top European level in their previous two seasons, but on two occasions they have failed in the group stage without exception. After winning the double last season, countless fans, media, and experts have predicted that this team will have a drama this season. Now is the time for Paul the Octopus to appear, and I'm really sorry that my father and mother raised me so big if I don't brag about it!
The first to brag about nature is Frederick Ljungberg.
From the Swedish league to the world's top three Premier League, the Swedes hardly any uncomfortable performance, one by one more than a good performance in addition to proving their strength, once again verified Wenger's ability to turn stones into gold!
In addition to one goal and one assist, he also contributed to the goal of the opponent at the last moment, and this kind of golden performance made the media directly praise Ljungberg to the ranks of top players!
In addition to him, the most worthy of praise is, naturally, Nikolai Anelka.
The Frenchman has scored six goals in his last five games, and his efficiency is staggering. He was very active in the forward position in this game, and in addition to the goal that ultimately guaranteed the team's early promotion, he grabbed a lot of remarkable points in the attack!
To the surprise of the experts, the Frenchman seemed to have suddenly learned to create opportunities for his teammates!
The French have always been criticized for playing too alone, and many people love and hate him when there is constant right and wrong on and off the field. Now this prodigal son's performance of turning back suddenly stirred up a part of the heart of the Virgin, who defended him in every way except eulogies.
Anelka wasn't in a good mood, but he couldn't stand the crowd collecting firewood, and after happily watching the comments, he threw the embarrassed boss aside. For him, the outstanding performance that lasted so long in the crucial phase of the transfer is the heavyweight weight in the negotiations, and the holiday with his teammates really does not completely blind his eyes.
In fact, Petit just lost face in front of his teammates, and the game itself played well at other times except for the mistake in front of the penalty area. The media is still mostly positive about the veteran's performance after his comeback, and no one holds on to that mistake.
In contrast, with the exception of the shot that lacked some luck and was considered an indirect assist, Yumo's other performances were mediocre, and in the eyes of the media, this guy did not play a much better role than Petit who was replaced by him.
Against this backdrop, the French gang did not get together after the game to discuss how to deal with this guy and Ljungberg, and the default "talk after two games" still took effect.
Before the weekend's game, Yumo was called into the office by Arsene Wenger.
After a few cold words, the French went straight to the point.
"I've looked at the goalkeeper you've suggested and with his current level and characteristics, he meets the requirements of our team. However, you also know his situation, you don't know what kind of club AC Milan is, and now that the transfer negotiations are about to officially begin, do you have any suggestions? ”
"Nope."
You Mo replied sincerely, but Wenger almost spit out the coffee he had drunk in his mouth.
"No?" The Frenchman's eyes widened, he wanted to get angry but he lacked a little anger, he wanted to laugh but couldn't.
"yes, I just talked to him on the court, and I didn't have much contact off the court. With limited knowledge, casual ideas can be counterproductive......"
Youmo continued to tell the truth, and before he could finish speaking, Wenger had already shaken his head in disappointment. Seeing the other party's frowning and thoughtful look, he tried to speak again, "Why don't I try to touch it?" ”
"How are you going to get in touch?" Wenger was obviously very concerned about this matter, and after hearing this, he kindled a glimmer of hope, so he immediately added: "The transfer fee we can pay is actually higher, but the player's will is really powerless." You know, he's 29 years old and desperate to show off his talent at a big club. ”
"How likely is it that Nikolai will go through the winter window?" You Mo looked noncommittal, and suddenly changed the topic.
"He? Seventy or eighty. Wenger sighed lightly, his face darkening.
"Is there a suitable back-up?" Yu Mo continued to ask.
"Do you have any suggestions?" Arsene Wenger came interested.
"Do you have any suggestions?" Arsene Wenger came interested.
"Of course!" You Mo smiled happily. (To be continued.) )
