Chapter 167: The Last Match
"Hey, I saw Cheryl just now, you found it?"
Walcott poked Xiang Hao beside him, and asked with a wink.
"I said no, will you be alike, damn it, I haven't finished asking, what are you shaking your head!"
Xiang Hao originally wanted to ask, 'Will you believe it', but as soon as he turned his head, this guy's head shook like a rattle, and he looked at himself with disdain, and Xiang Hao, who was angry, directly burst into foul language.
"Hao, it's not that we don't believe you, it's that you have too many bad deeds in this regard."
Diabi, who is black and thin and always looks indifferent, also joined the ranks of burying Xiang Hao.
There is no way, Xiang Hao's peach blossom luck is too vigorous, which of these teenagers with excessive hormone secretion is not jealous.
So even if they can't, it doesn't stop them from talking about it.
"Yes, Hao, the way Cheryl looked at you just now, it was all affectionate, can we believe you."
"It seems that Hao's good fortune tonight is not shallow, hehe."
"Hao, you have to compensate me for my mental damages, a treat."
"Yes, a treat."
"What kind of guest, how expensive is it to go out to eat, right, Hao, or let's get it ourselves."
"That's a good idea, Chinese dinner!"
…
"Fuck off!"
Looking at the foodie gluttonies, Xiang Hao directly gave them a middle finger.
I really regard myself as the master of the Arsenal canteen, and I must not encourage them to be so unscrupulous.
"Found it."
"I have that too."
"It's easy to discuss, it's easy to discuss, but you have to pay for it, you have to help, I will list the materials and whatever, and you will prepare, because I will never be able to do it."
Seeing that one of them took out his mobile phone to find the number, Xiang Hao hurriedly surrendered.
"Mmmmmm
Originally, I was planning to go back to the Celestial Empire for the New Year, and get together with Lao Xiang and Alice, but now it seems that there is no hope.
Forget it, it's good to eat hot pot on Chinese New Year's Eve, and you don't have to live alone.
Xiang Hao could only comfort himself like this.
"Let's go back, I guess the game is about to start."
There was no mood to warm up, Xiang Hao hurriedly beckoned his teammates to go back together.
"This race, Hao, is within thirty meters of the center circle, these are your activity areas.
Denilson, you're in charge of filling in the position behind Hao, understand? ”
There were no special requirements, Wenger just gave another instruction to his two disciples in the middle of the midfield.
"Hmm." "Understood."
"Let's go, win this game!"
Arsene Wenger clapped his hands and cheered on his team.
Although this game is against Portsmouth, it is a game that must not lose points for Arsenal, and once points are lost, then Everton and Villa behind them will be crushed.
So Arsene Wenger sent almost all of his main team, the goalkeeper position, No. 1 Almunia.
In the back line, Galla, who made a big mistake in the last game, was withdrawn, No. 3 Sagna, No. 5 Toure, No. 18 Sylvester, No. 22 Klich.
Midfielder, No. 8 Nasri, No. 15 Denilson, No. 6 Xiang Hao, No. 12 Bella.
Up front, No. 11 Van Persie partnered No. 14 Theo Walcott.
A 442 formation, but anyone who has watched Arsenal's games knows the diversity of variations in this formation.
Although Vela is a midfielder, he is more likely to rush to the winger, in fact, it is a 433 formation, and it depends on how the field changes.
"Victory! Victory! Victory! ”
“gogogogogog――o!”
The Emirates Stadium, which can accommodate more than 60,000 people, has been filled, and huge cannons are waving, and cheers and shouts are like the roar of guns, pouring into people's ears, which is extremely uncomfortable.
The entire Emirates Stadium is like an ancient battlefield, a kind of irritable momentum.
Because it is the last race of the new year, so, for them, a perfect race, is the last New Year's gift.
So even if the opponent is just the inconspicuous Portsmouth, their enthusiasm is much higher than in the previous games.
"Hehe, seeing it, Arsenal fans are full of expectations for this game.
If the Arsenal players can't win this game, it is estimated that they will be scolded to death by their own fans, and they will not have a good New Year. ”
Lineker looked at the display of flags in the stands and couldn't help but joke.
"It shouldn't be a big problem, in the last game, Arsenal drew and it can only be said that it was a surprise, after all, they have a big advantage on the field.
As long as they don't have problems defending themselves, they should have no problem winning this game. ”
As Haomi, who is also half an Arsenal fan, Mortensen is quite optimistic about Arsenal.
"Well, I have to say, Arsenal look pretty sharp if they're okay defensively.
But is their defense really okay, and Sylvester looks a little worse than his French countryman.
Arsenal's defence has never been reassuring, and I think that's what you're saying. ”
Lineker saw Arsenal at the same time, but Arsenal's nonsensical backline always made people speechless again and again.
So he didn't know if he should believe in this unstable Arsenal, and he always felt that this Arsenal was not safe.
"Well, who's to say it's not, I hope Arsenal's defense doesn't have problems this time, maybe what they need is a central defender like the one opposite."
Mortensen did not refute, but nodded in agreement, after all, Arsenal's instability is well known to passers-by.
"Hehe, I think Campbell must be willing to teach some young people like Arsenal, Portsmouth is not a team without resistance."
Lineker knows who Mortensen is talking about, the legendary Arsenal centre-back, Saul Campbell, who is now in the Portsmouth team and is still the captain.
Many people are still thinking that perhaps with such a player who is familiar with Arsenal, Portsmouth will create some threats for Arsenal.
But the course of the game tells people that the old Arsenal is gone, and a new Arsenal has arrived.
Even one of the pillars of the former team could not stop the Arsenal players from moving forward.
"Go Arsenal!"
"Break through them!"
From the first steal of the game, such shouts and cheers never stopped.
This is the Emirates Stadium, Arsenal's home stadium, and these boys won't give any opponent the initiative.
After Denilson stole Portsmouth's midfielder Diop, he handed the ball to the feet of Xiang Hao, who was in front of him, as soon as possible.
After Xiang Hao and Nasri made a one-two, they advanced a distance of five meters and distributed the ball to Vela on the wing.
Arsenal's first wave of attack was launched.
Although the first wave of attack was finally destroyed by Campbell's big foot to the bottom line, Arsenal's offensive wave was opened.
This is Arsenal's favorite and best way.
Although every team knows it, not every team can defend, let alone stop every defense.
In the eighth minute of the game, a delicate rib combination was formed.
After Vela won the ball on the wing, he made a series of feints to press the entire Portsmouth defence.
Just when many people thought Vela was going to go down, he suddenly dunked and then cut inside, diverting the attention of Portsmouth's defense in an instant.
And just after he cut inside, he suddenly knocked down the middle and Arsenal's attacking threat shifted to the front.
At this moment, a figure that stepped forward at high speed rushed over.
"Long shot?"
"If you have time, you can exert your strength!"
Xiang Hao, who had been hovering outside the penalty area, plugged in from the back row and made a gesture to kick.
It was this Xiang Hao who stepped forward, which made the entire Portsmouth defense line, which was already uneasy, nervous to the throat all of a sudden.
Although they hadn't fought each other before, they knew very well what the result would be when the young man stepped forward.
Having studied the footage of Arsenal's game, they knew that they had a stunning long-range shot.
In the area outside 30, a distance of one meter from the penalty area line, if the opponent is fully exerted, it is almost a fatal shot.
So they didn't dare to be careless, and when Xiang Hao appeared on camera, the Portsmouth team members were also moving.
The midfielder moved towards Xiang Hao, and the defense was also raised to block.
"Leaked?!"
"Hao leaked it!"
When he was about to touch the ball, Xiang Hao's steps widened, and the ball leaked from his crotch.
This leak left Portsmouth's defense, like a skeleton covered in flesh and blood, scattered.
Their defensive focus was on Xiang Hao, but they forgot that there was another person near the arc of the middle circle - Nasri.
By the time they remembered and noticed, their gaze and footsteps were no longer aligned, and they couldn't turn back.
In fact, it was useless for them to turn back, because Nasri didn't intend to stay the moment he got the ball.
With a 'snap', the arch of the foot was gently pushed to complete the ball.
Walcott, the No. 14 descendant nicknamed 'Little Tiger', pounced like a cheetah at the moment.
When Portsmouth's backline was advanced, his family were ready to play offside.
I and my teammates have cooperated with this routine countless times, and this time is no exception.
Get the ball at the top of the arc, divide the ball, **** in the ribs, take the ball, and tear apart the opponent's defense line with a blow.
Full of tacit understanding!
Walcott's anti-offside position is successful!
Portsmouth's goalkeeper James has dropped out of the net to block Theo Walcott's one-on-one goal.
He couldn't take care of who Arsenal's striker was, and his body was stuck in Walcott's route.
He couldn't take care of it, but Walcoat had to scruple about it, not to mention that the other party's body was too big, and Walket was not absolutely sure.
Descendant No. 14 has not grown up to ignore the existence of the Dutch.
With a flat push, Van Persie followed up with a gentle touch on his toes.
“GOOOOOO――OL!!!
Van Persie, Robin van Persie! 1-0, we were ahead!! ”
