Chapter 172: Pull down your face

Murphy's Law was revealed again, and the two old men were speechless at the same time. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Fortunately, Yumo didn't need them to tell him anything, and he jumped all the way with a small schoolbag, oh no, he went on the pitch with the Arsenal No. 11 shirt on his back.

For his arrival, the players on the field were far less enthusiastic than the fans.

It's clear.

The big drama that originally belonged to them was smashed again, and in the face of the guy who came to save the scene, their self-esteem made them unable to open their mouths and laugh.

Even the hardcore brother Ljungberg was a little annoyed by his own performance, but he raised his hand weakly, which was regarded as a greeting.

You Mo didn't care at all about the fact that he was snubbed by his teammates.

This cargo is in the limelight outside the stadium, and the feet are itchy inside the stadium. It's been a full week without a ball, and he hasn't played a game for two weeks, and he simply hates the manager's nepotism.

1:1 is much more motivating than 2:0, and he thinks so undisciplinedly.

When Wiltord was used to the setback, he relieved himself after a while, and took the time to ask with a smile, "Is there a secret recipe?" ”

"1 point can't satisfy their appetite, we have to let them see the hope of taking away 3 points directly, and we can have a show."

You Mo trotted all the way over, and specially attached to the French ear to chant words.

Wiltord was in the middle of nowhere.

Again?

But when you think about it, it's a relief.

Manchester City are popular in England and have a higher investment than the average mid-table team. Especially after seeing the sworn enemies in the same city playing triumphant songs all the way, they unconsciously no longer settle for relegation.

Upset!

The opposition in front of us is loady, and the recent record is even stronger, which will be a big one at home against a team in 12th place. They will benefit greatly from the huge attention that the upset brings!

Although doing this is tantamount to doing a great favor to the sworn enemies in the same city, the temptation of the upset is too great, and they can't care so much about it.

It's just that the equalizer was scored by taking advantage of the opponent's mistakes, and if you want to overtake in the little time left, you have to attack all the way and create opportunities to achieve the goal of causing an upset. It's human nature. It is also an inevitable move when morale is high.

On the other hand, their opponents, Arsenal.

The classic case of being anxious to eat hot tofu is staged again, in the face of the Manchester City team that has already gained momentum, what to use to find the key to open the door?

Open attacks can turn the outcome of a match into an uncertain one, and even if luck is not taken into account, physical and morale disadvantages can lead to negative results. Moreover, traditional Premier League teams tend to move too much, and if they really have to fight with them, they will continue to add new forces to the injury list.

Are there any cost-effective tactics in this situation?

Yu Mo gave the answer.

Lure the enemy deep and wait for an opportunity to fight back!

The last time was a suspicious formation. Use onslaught to confuse the opponent, this one and pretend to be inactive, use retreat to lure the enemy, two games, two games of psychological warfare, Wiltord no longer knows what words to use to describe the guy in front of him.

Maybe this guy is an alien too, he thought.

"Giles, don't worry. Our physical strength has dropped a little bit, so let's stabilize it first. ”

French spoken. He looked at the fellow expectantly, hoping that he would tell the other two in a more esoteric language.

Overmars, Ljungberg.

The results disappointed him.

Yumo was already fully engaged in the game, and had no intention of stopping to teach his teammates face-to-face.

Maybe they had a better understanding, he thought.

It turns out that he wanted to be crooked.

Overmars and Ljungberg are both very responsible guys, playing as wing-backs. They tend to retreat very deeply when defending back. When it's time to counterattack, the passing and breakthrough in the middle is the top priority, otherwise as long as the side is pulled away, as long as there is a big foot in the backfield, wouldn't the counterattack come naturally?

This is actually why a team should build a team with the idea of the central axis. Rather than focusing on the wide players as the core to build the root cause of the tactical style of play.

Even if the wings fly together, the final completion of the task of shooting and scoring is still the guy who inserts the point in the middle, and the tactical position can be seen.

In fact, there are many teams whose star is a wide player, but that is more often used as a good pawn in the star tactics, and it does not mean that the team's tactical core is also inclined to this.

No matter how strong the star is, he is still a human being, and if he is a human being, he will have ups and downs, and once the wing is not effective, there is no hope in the middle. And no matter how much the advantage of the side accumulates, it is useless if the middle cannot score a goal.

Of course, as a star of the game, all-round ability is a must, in addition to breaking through the wings to create killing opportunities, small angle shots, inside shots, set-pieces, these scoring means are important weapons to maintain their status.

The same goes for Arsenal.

Overmars and Ljungberg were able to cross easily against most defenders in one-on-one, and the success rate of the breakthrough was also above 50%, but if the number of breakthroughs and crosses alone could be won by relying only on the number of breakthroughs and crosses from the wings, then United's 81 crosses would not be a joke.

Back on the field.

70 minutes into the game, Manchester City's offensive wave after wave, beating the entire Arsenal team out of breath.

Even the lone striker, Wiltord, returned to his own half, where he spared no effort to assist the defence.

This guy, like Grimandi, has not been selected for the new French national team, and although there is little hope for next year's European Championships, it is not a bad thing at club level.

Just like the fierce Youmo of the dragon spirit.

This product has a mediocre sense of ball, and not touching the ball for a week may have a big impact on the delicate guy, and there is no adaptation problem for him at all.

Midfield meat grinder + killer in a quick counterattack, these two roles do not require delicate foot skills, and they play the most free position on the field, so as soon as he comes on the court, he quickly integrates into the game and repeatedly contributes to the defensive end. It's a pity that the Manchester City team's performance at this stage is really flawless, and the team failed to attack the opponent's penalty area in the only few counterattacks, and the shooting opportunities are naturally out of the question.

Fortunately, there is patience!

In the 77th minute, except for two central defenders and goalkeepers, the whole Manchester City team pressed through the half. It's a tiger that kicks the tiger. It's a pity that their offensive means are quite simple, and breaking dense defense is not something they are good at, so the seemingly powerful offensive still failed to knock on the opponent's door.

The attack ended with Ashley Cole's precise judgment.

England's rising star is indeed a malleable material, and Arsene Wenger put him in a left-back position as an unintentional move, but the more he played, the more he felt it, and the effect on the pitch became more and more obvious. In the new national team list, he is only 19 years old!

His body looks a little thin, but in fact, the agility of the low center of gravity completely makes up for the lack of strength, and the Manchester City player just wanted to play a trick in front of him, but he quickly stabbed the ball away!

Not far away, Overmars, who assisted in the defense, was even more skilled, and the Manchester City team obviously had a local numerical advantage, but in the end they didn't even touch the side of the ball!

Start, emergency stop, drumble. Change direction, pleasing movements are like peers flowing in one go, and you can become a dance on the court without music!

After shaking off the gap, the Dutchman dribbled along the flank, Wiltord in the middle, Jumo behind, and also spread his feet and ran wildly, Vieira and Grimandi went over one after another.

That's the case with quick counter-attacks, although a one-kick pass is the highest level. But the situation on the field is changing rapidly, and the opponent has an obvious numerical advantage. Two passing points is the most economical thing to do.

The value of this approach has been demonstrated.

The tall Vieira received the ball and turned very smoothly, but the Frenchman, who was obviously close to the limit of his physical strength, was knocked down by the opponent who fought hard and failed to become a rocket booster in a quick counterattack as before!

Fortunately, before falling to the ground, the ball was stabbed by his foot to a compatriot not far away.

The whistle didn't blow, and a heart-pounded Grimandi breathed heavily, hoping he could calm down.

Someone is going to be the dominant player in every game, and he already has a strong hunch. So when the opportunity really came, he kept admonishing himself.

Calm down, calm down, be sure to be calm!

It's just a normal league game, and I'm just getting started. You can't get hot when you need to calm down the most!

It was already half-time after two lateral passes of the ball, and City had only two centre-backs and right-backs in their positions.

Half-time three-on-three!

In such a long distance, it is best to fight less and test the foundation.

Physical, technical, conscious, and mentality are all indispensable!

There is no problem with the physical strength of the three of them, technically except for Yu Mo, they are all above the opponent, and consciousness is not easy to compare, but every guy who can gain a foothold in the top team is the best among them. In this way, the reminders Gremandy gave himself were indeed crucial.

Mentality!

The more you see the dawn of victory, the more likely you are to make mistakes!

The body running at high speed starts to slow down without waiting for the opponent to approach, observes, and finally stops in place, waiting for the opponent to grab!

Behind this bold and reckless behavior, there is a hidden speculation about the psychology of the opponent.

In a one-on-one situation, no matter which opponent comes up, he is confident to complete the breakthrough. Therefore, as long as the guy in front of him chooses to grab, the next situation will be more favorable. If the opponent does not move, waiting for a team-mate to return to defend or chooses to create an offside position, he has plenty of time and space to make a threatening pass!

Yes, being the master of the game doesn't have to be reflected in goals!

He saw very clearly that three to three is still not the best situation, and the opponent who is vacillating between retreat and offside is the best gift!

In the end, his opponent's choice did not surprise him.

Make offside!

The Manchester City team is full of upsets, as long as they have the opportunity to rush forward, the situation in front of them is already exhausted by their opponents, so the idea of creating an offside position can not be contained, and the legs do not obey the call to run forward.

The result is a natural tragedy.

Grimandika played the ball before Wiltord was a position behind, leaving him and Jumo to play the goalkeeper together!

In the end, the Frenchman was not greedy, and after leading the goalkeeper with the ball laterally, he gave his teammates a chance to make a mistake.

You Mo accepted the gift unceremoniously, and shot at the empty goal five meters in front of the goal, boiling the entire Highbury Stadium!

The running selection was so brainless, and the scoring process was so simple that the goods didn't even save the celebration, and waved directly at Wiltord as a thank you.

Could it be that he is possessed by a dashing brother, he thought.

.......

The 2-1 score was held until the end of stoppage time, and the best after the game went to Grimandi.

Arsenal's two goals, the first was an own goal from his cross, and the second was because of his presence, the most crucial part of the counter-attack was solved, so that the assists and goals were really lackluster.

In fact, Wiltord's performance was quite eye-catching, but the FA, like the media, likes newcomers to come out to steal the show, so the champagne was finally given to the guy who almost left in the winter window.

Ljungberg, Yumo, Ashley Cole, Wiltord, plus the best Grimandi of the game, the media has discovered that the defending champions have unknowingly completed the task of changing blood!

Realizing this, the journalists' questions became apparent.

'Yes, defending the title is more difficult than we thought it would be and to maintain last season's performance, competition within the squad is crucial.

Wenger was going to emphasize the helpless choice under the effect of injury, but when the words came to his lips, he remembered Parol and Petit, so he held back.

The injury to the former has given him a strong contender for the best rookie of the season, while the injury to the latter has completely silenced the dressing room, so it would be a bit of a stretch to stress the injury again.

"I've been through a long detour and even thought of leaving the team, but fortunately, my beloved Uncle Pat reminded me and made me really find myself."

Speaking in his post-match press conference, Grimandi continued: "I almost ruined the final result in this game, but luckily a more sober team-mate reminded me to win the best game of my career. ”

The media, who are good at getting to the bottom of it, will not miss the opportunity and have raised their hands.

"Mo, he told us that Manchester City will definitely lose their breath in the face of upset hopes, as long as they calm down, stay patient and don't make mistakes in defence, the chances will always come to an unimaginably wonderful degree!"

Hearing this, the reporters looked at Wenger with admiration.

In their opinion, this is another absolutely brilliant work of on-the-spot command, and the status of the Frenchman's master tactician is by no means in vain.

The facts let them down.

Wenger paused for a moment, then smiled again: "It's a pity that the answer is not what you think." ”

"There's a force in this team that's quietly growing, and before I know it, I've grown into a behemoth, and I'm curious at the center of the surprise."

"There may not be much more to see now, but I'm sure as time goes on, more and more evidence will make you feel the same shock as I do!"

"That was probably the happiest moment as a manager!" (To be continued.) )
