Chapter Forty-Six: Chu and the Little Tiger
readx;
Fabregas was not seriously injured, and Chu Zhongtian's kick did not make his heel break and bleed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info just a little painful, get up and move your ankle, it's fine.
The referee didn't play a card to Chu Zhongtian, and although he came up from behind, it looked like he had just accidentally stepped on Cesc Fabregas's shoe in the scramble, and it hung on his heel. It was not a very malicious foul, so he only gave Chu Zhongtian a verbal warning and asked him to pay attention to his defensive actions.
Chu Zhongtian naturally nodded in agreement. As for whether he wants to do what the referee says, that's his own business.
However, Chu Zhongtian's doing so did make a difference.
When he pressed Cesc Fabregas from behind again, the Spanish midfielder clearly changed his strategy and passed the ball directly instead of controlling it and fighting with Chu Zhongtian.
Arsenal lost to Barcelona last season and were eliminated by La Liga giants, and Cesc Fabregas came on injured in the second leg and did not perform. If it weren't for that injury, maybe his team wouldn't have been eliminated by Barcelona. So Cesc Fabregas is now very injury-conscious. This is only the group stage, not the knockout round, there is really no need to work too hard, in case of a serious injury, if you miss for several months, Arsenal can't even get out of the group stage, then it will be a big loss.
Cesc Fabregas decided to avoid too much physical contact as much as possible. Unless you really can't avoid it.
Chu Zhongtian's treatment of Arsenal's captain like this naturally caused dissatisfaction among Arsenal players and fans.
When he picked up the ball again, there was a wave of boos in the stands at the Emirates Stadium and the Arsenal players were not very kind to him.
When Chu Zhongtian walked forward with the football, he was going to pass Alexander. Song's. Unexpectedly, Song stretched out a kick to the side and tripped him directly.
The referee's whistle sounded again. Even fools can see that Song is fighting against his captain, which is a retaliatory foul.
However, the referee still did not play a card, but continued to give verbal warnings.
Kaka ran up and pulled Chu Zhongtian up. C. Ronaldo was a little dissatisfied with the referee's decision and complained to him about why there was no yellow card.
Seeing that the two superstars in the team were helping Chu Zhongtian, He Ping sighed that Chu Zhongtian looked very popular in the team with complicated locker room relationships in Real Madrid.
Chu Zhongtian has now learned Spanish, and it is not a problem to communicate with local Spanish players and Argentine players. In fact, learning Spanish after learning Portuguese is very simple, plus his superhuman language talent, so it is not a problem.
After being able to communicate freely with his teammates, his relationship with everyone quickly warmed up. Because he is low-key, he doesn't participate in any factional struggles in the locker room, he maneuvers between several major factions, and has a good relationship with all parties, so he is not annoying.
※※※Song thought that he had fought back against Chu Zhongtian fiercely, and then Chu Zhongtian no longer dared to be presumptuous in front of himself and the captain Fabregas.
But soon when Real Madrid attacked, Chu Zhongtian humiliated him with a heel.
At that time, Chu Zhongtian turned his back to the direction of the attack, and Khedira passed the football to him from behind. Song immediately pressed up from behind, wanting to stop Chu Zhongtian from turning around.
Chu Zhongtian did not stop the ball, nor did he mean to turn around with the ball, but jumped up directly and knocked the football to Ozil behind him with his heel.
As if on purpose, the ball flew between Song's legs and landed at Ozil's feet. Chu Zhongtian not only completed a beautiful heel pass, but also drilled Song's small door.
When Mesut Ozil received the ball, he didn't even have an Arsenal player around. Everyone paid attention to Chu Zhongtian, C. Ronaldo and Kaka, and in the attacking combination in the frontcourt, Ozil was less famous, and even Higuain was more famous than him.
Mesut Ozil got the ball and turned and was about to shoot, but Arsenal centre-back Vermaelen, who had been able to deceive the defender, made a defensive move, but he pulled the ball to the left and his body flashed. At this time, Arsenal's defenders are concentrated in the middle to stop his shot, or break through. Ozil neither shot nor broke through, but directly divided the ball into the left rib!
"Ronaldo-!"
C. Ronaldo received the ball from Ozil, burst into the penalty area, and then shot with his feet!
Goalkeeper Almunia made a save, but he could have knocked the ball off the line and gave Real Madrid a corner.
And the origin of this attack came from Chu Zhongtian's heel knock.
He threw the ball out and completely disrupted Arsenal's defence - because he had to make up for Mesut Ozil, everyone rushed forward in a swarm, ignoring whether there were openings elsewhere around them. As a result, C. Ronaldo caught and took advantage of it. If it weren't for Almunia's outstanding performance, perhaps Arsenal would have conceded by now.
Mesut Ozil drove the corner kick, and this time it was Chu Zhongtian who won the ball. C. Ronaldo didn't grab it at the front point, but shook Arsenal's defenders, and Chu Zhongtian followed up in the middle and shook his head to attack the goal!
It was a close shot, and as long as it hit the woodwork, it was a must-score. Unexpectedly, the football was slightly higher than the crossbar, and flew over the crossbar...... "Chu-oh! Oh...... What a pity! Football strikes the door! ”
The Emirates Stadium was shocked by Chu Zhongtian's header in a cold sweat, and many people exclaimed. Fortunately, the end result was not bad for them.
Chu Zhongtian has been staring at the football since he shook his head, and he watched the football fly out of the crossbar, which was a pity. However, instead of holding his head in his hands and making a gesture of regret, he turned around and ran back after landing on the ground, and the TV broadcast gave him a close-up of his face, his expression was calm, and he did not have the slightest regret for not scoring the header this time.
This is not Chu Zhongtian's calmness, he really doesn't feel regretful. Because judging from the game during this time, he feels that Real Madrid can control the midfield and the rhythm of the game. In this way, it is difficult to say whether you will win or not, but at least you will not lose.
So he has nothing to worry about.
At Real Madrid, he has a lot of strong teammates who can make up for something he can't do. At Hoffenheim and Metz are different, he has to do a lot of things himself, and without him, the team will not be able to play. That's the difference between a big club and an average team.
Caught in the tangle between Song and Cesc Fabregas, he shifted more of the football to Mesut Ozil.
What if Ozil was also chosen for the siege? And C. Ronaldo, Kaka, Higuain, and even Khedira...... What is he afraid of?
※※※ The game lasted for 30 minutes, and the two sides were still deadlocked, neither of them could break through the opponent's goal, and of course everyone had a chance.
Just as Chu Zhongtian believes that Real Madrid is not alone, Arsenal is not only Cesc Fabregas. When Chu Zhongtian restricted Fabregas's actions, Arsenal also adjusted their strategy, Fabregas was more of a transition station, and the football was quickly passed out here to avoid giving Chu Zhongtian time to steal. Van Persie was positioned further back, actively dropping back to meet the midfield, while Walcott and Arshavin were interspersed back and forth, feeding Van Persie in front of him.
In fact, it was Theo Walcott who was the most active, as he faced Arbeloa, the weakest left wing-back in the Real Madrid team.
When Arbeloa played for Liverpool, Theo Walcourt played against him, and at that time Arbeloa was still a right-back, and there were not many direct duels between them. But he knows what kind of defender Arbeloa is.
Arbeloa is a versatile defender at the back. In a normal sense, this title means that he is mediocre in all aspects, and in fact it is. He can play as a full-back and centre-back, but he is not very physical, so he is more suited to play as a full-back. His defensive ability is relatively average, and his offensive ability is insufficient, so he doesn't go up to participate in the attack a lot of the time, which is also his advantage - the manager likes obedient players, let him not go up, he will never go up. Listen to the command.
Arbeloa's pace wasn't too slow, but it was still ...... for Walcott It's too slow!
After getting the ball on the side, Walcourt glanced at Arbeloa, who was five meters away in front of him, leaned over, slid the football out, and then accelerated violently, seeing that the football was about to be picked up by Arbeloa, he stabbed the football out first!
"Breakthrough! Pretty! ”
"The 'Little Tiger' is powerful!"
By the time Arbeloa turned around, Walcott had burst into the box like a gust of wind.
Whether it's a cross or a shot, he's already caused chaos in Real Madrid's goalmouth defence.
Thankfully, his cross wasn't on target, but was spoiled by Khedira.
Regardless, his breakthrough gave Arsenal fans hope of winning, who frantically chanted Theo Walcott's name from the stands to cheer on the little tiger.
Arbeloa kept shaking his head after running back, he felt that he had been careful, he didn't expect that the other party's speed was still faster than he expected...... In fact, defenders are not afraid of players with excellent footwork, but players with this kind of speed. Because the difference in speed is absolute, and once it appears, it cannot be bridged. can only watch the opponent use his speed to force a breakthrough, either foul or send him away.
It's like a national derby at the Bernabeu. Robert. Carlos took the ball in the ribs of Barcelona's defense, facing the Barcelona player Xavi who came to defend him, Carlos didn't have any tricks, no cycling, no Marseille slalom, just directly pushed the football forward, waded out ten meters away, and then used his speed to force overtaking, and finally ate Xavi alive, passed the football out, and let Raul grab the goal on the goal wall.
That goal is the quintessential example of a speedy player.
Walcoat also has that advantage against Arbeloa, he doesn't need to show off his footwork at all, he can pass Arbeloa with speed alone, and he will try it again and again.
Then Walcott came to several such unreasonable breakthroughs, which made Arsenal fans enthusiastic, but Arbeloa was reduced to a pitiful supporting role, and Walcott suddenly couldn't find the north again and again. And Real Madrid's front of the door is also in a hurry.
Even if C. Ronaldo came to help defend, it wouldn't help. After all, Ronaldo is not a full-time defensive player, and he can only act like a defence.
When Arbeloa was broken through by Walcot again, causing danger, Chu Zhongtian decided to help.
Mourinho was not assigned such a task. This is completely Chu Zhongtian's own judgment based on the situation on the field, and based on experience, he believes that it will help the team to help.
Although he is still tasked with defending Cesc Fabregas, he feels he should have the capacity to spare.
Theo Walcott seems to have suddenly become addicted, and Arsenal have seen an opportunity on this side of Arbeloa's side to take advantage of it, and have made it their main attack.
When he used his speed to shake off Arbeloa again and was about to catch up with the football, he found that a man suddenly hit the diagonal stab and shoveled the football out of the sideline. And he himself was too fast to stop the car, and hit his head and tripped to the ground.
When he fell to the ground, he immediately raised his arm to signal to the referee, which was a foul.
But the referee looked very carefully, and it was clear that he tackled the ball first, and then Walket crashed into it himself, and he signaled Arsenal to send a throw-in.
Dissatisfied, Walcott jumped up from the ground and waved his arms in exaggerated protest.
As a result, C. Ronaldo next to him saw this scene, and he muttered in English: "If you are really hurt, how can you still be so energetic?" His voice wasn't loud, but it was just enough for Walcourt to hear.
Walcoat heard C. Ronaldo's sarcasm, and he turned around and glared at Ronaldo, while the Portuguese shrugged his shoulders with disdain.
Khedira, who was next to him, saw that the two seemed to be about to clash, and hurriedly ran over to separate the two people. By doing so, he made the others nervous.
Song thought that Khedira was going to help C. Ronaldo, so he also intervened and pushed Khedira hard.
Seeing that Song made a move, Ozil next to him certainly wouldn't let his fellow Germans suffer, and he also followed up, wanting to ask Song for an explanation.
Seeing that the warband is about to expand and expand, more people will be involved.
The referee's whistle sounded, and Cesc Fabregas also helped to persuade the people to fight.
Chu Zhongtian also grabbed Ozil with his hand and didn't let him really rush in.
There is no need to actively request a yellow card. Chu Zhongtian himself didn't expect that a very normal tackle would cause a small riot, it seems that his relationship with C. Ronaldo is really iron, and the other party never forgets to stand up for himself...... Of course, this may also be a way for Ronaldo to deliberately provoke the other party.
Compared with Ronaldo, he is still not aggressive enough, and in the face of other people's provocations, he is at most silent, while C. Ronaldo must fight back. It's true in the media, but it's also true on the pitch.
The small riot quickly subsided.
The defiant C. Ronaldo and the glaring Walcott did not receive a yellow card, but Khedira and Alexander Song each received a yellow card as a warning.
Both teams have a yellow card at the back.
This is tantamount to laying a foreshadowing for the next game, that is, I don't know when it will be blown up.
Wolcott was not taught a lesson, and he was still enjoying the thrill of breaking through Arbeloa with speed on the wing.
But this time he was targeted by a lion.
"Little Tiger" made a feint to cut inside on the dribble, causing Arbeloa to deflect his weight towards the middle, and then he flicked the ball out with his right foot, and in this way used a change of direction to accelerate and get rid of Arbeloa.
This time, he didn't go out directly because he was worried that he would be shoveled out by Chu Zhongtian again. And now, the football is under his control, even if Chu Zhongtian can still tackle the ball, he will definitely shovel himself together, and then it will be a sure foul.
Chu Zhongtian has been guarding the inside of Arbeloa, and when he saw Walcot make a feint, he knew that Arbeloa would be deceived, so he moved to the outside, just as Walcourt brought the football over.
This time, Chu Zhongtian did not fly directly to the shovel, but leaned up sharply and stuck to Walcott, preventing him from lifting his speed, and at the same time squeezing him out as much as possible.
Walket did feel a huge resistance, his body was not as strong as Chu Zhongtian, and once his speed couldn't get up, the threat would be much smaller.
Chu Zhongtian was stuck on the inside, so that Walcott couldn't rush inside, and at the same time, his body leaned him out. Walcott wanted to make an emergency stop to get out, but he didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to make an emergency stop and turn around with him, as if he knew he would do it...... The final result, of course, was that Walcott's ball was broken again...... This time it wasn't even a foul, Chu Zhongtian turned around faster than Walcott, and directly turned sideways, squeezed Walcott behind him, and controlled the football at his feet.
The little tiger crashed into a large rock.
Arsene Wenger soon found it impossible to continue attacking the right flank, as Walcourt was already targeted by Chu Zhongtian.
In fact, he had a very high opinion of Chu Zhongtian, otherwise he would not have let Song, the strongest defender, defend Chu Zhongtian.
Therefore, he made a change, since Chu Zhongtian went to assist Arbeloa in defending Walcott, it means that Cesc Fabregas will have more space.
As a result, Arsenal's attacking focus returned to Cesc Fabregas.
If Chu Zhongtian re-entangles Fabregas, then hand over the football to Walcott again, and then see whether Chu Zhongtian saves it or not.
This is to put Chu Zhongtian in a dilemma. If he goes to defend Cesc Fabregas, then Walcourt will have no one to stop. If he goes to help Arbeloa defend Walcott, Cesc Fabregas will be active. Anyway, Khedira has a yellow card on him now, and he is not afraid of him.
This hand is beautifully played. Arsenal immediately regained the upper hand, and Real Madrid were temporarily suppressed and could only be on the defensive.
