Chapter 387: Take the Middle Road

For this striker with inhuman long-range shooting ability, Lloris has been more careful, so when He Xu picked up his foot, Lloris's arms were already open, ready to meet this powerful kick that might be a miracle. At the same time, his teammates had also nervously sealed it, trying to stop He Xu's terrible shot, but all of them were deceived by He Xu, He Xu's leg just fell lightly, and then knocked the ball forward! Got rid of Paulinho, who was sliding towards him and ready to tackle.

"Oh! Wonderful feints to get rid of, He Xu quickly changed direction after taking the ball, dribbled forward, and was already in the penalty area! Transmit! Repeat! Wonderful two-over-one match, push! Ay! Loris, like a divine help! He actually blocked He Xu's tricky shot! Duan Xian waved his hand a little impatiently, as if this ball would not work if it didn't go in.

Just now in the Tottenham penalty area, He Xu and Tang Lintian and Garincha, who was inserted in front, finished a "triangle attack", and after He Xu brought the ball into the penalty area, he turned around and handed it to Tang Lintian, and then Tang Lintian passed the ball to the feet of Garrincha, who had been inserted into the penalty area. After Garrincha received the ball, he did not get up to shoot, but a flashing outside instep to pick up the pass, the football flew high, Vertonghen could only look at the ball and sigh, let He Xu slide past him, Lloris didn't have time to accuse his captain of leaking, so he blocked the ball with a very embarrassing side pounce. This pounce naturally caused cheers from the fans at the scene, as well as boos for He Xu.

He Xu turned to Garrincha and gave a thumbs up, and at the same time a little sorry that he couldn't add an assist to his stats. But don't worry. Isn't it just an assist? There will definitely be! It's almost ......

Villas-Boas watched his team fall into passivity and was on the verge of going berserk, a coach who was close to Jose Mourinho's style and even had the same coaching line, and he even achieved what Mourinho failed to do, leading Chelsea to the Champions League. (I'll count him according to the time, in fact, I know that Di Matteo led Chelsea to counterattack, begging fans and Villas-Boas fans to pat it.) )

Now watching his team at the door of his own house under the pressure of the city's rivals, Boas is naturally very unhappy, he jumped on the sidelines and criticized the performance of the players in the field. His teammates heard his chatter. scolded in his heart: You can come, do you? You run into these guys. Captain Vertonghen silently thought in his heart, when did He Xu, this kid, become so tough? I can't seem to stand him anymore!

Tottenham fans are still shouting and singing wildly. Cheer on your home team. And a very small number of Arsenal fans are not to be outdone. They waved the team's away jersey in their hands. Calling the names of their midfield duo. Apparently they wanted to see Tang Lintian's aura breakthrough and Massimo. Charlie's miraculous long-range shot. Of course, if the other players scored, it would have been great.

Villas-Boas was blaming his own players. But he forgot that his lineup has a huge problem, not to mention whether Lamela can adapt like Garrincha who retreated from the winger position to the midfield on the opposite side, even the forward combination of Soldado and Adebayo is also a huge hidden danger. Two people who like to fight alone got together, and the tasks were not specifically arranged, so it was very good that the two of them didn't fight on the field.

When Adebayo once again stubbornly chose to hit the goal from a small angle, Soldado finally couldn't help but complain to him, "Hey! Man, pass the ball! My side was empty just now! Okay? ”

Adebayo just glanced at him, didn't speak, just waved his hand at him, not knowing whether to tell him to stop grinding or to say that he already knew.

"We see that Tottenham are in a very bad situation at the moment, they can't find a good way on the pitch and the players don't have a tacit understanding and cooperation with each other. On the other hand, Arsenal, who also rebuilt their team in the off-season, have been able to organise their attack well. I think it has a lot to do with the familiarity of the players in the midfield. ”

Duan Xianzheng was talking, Massimo in the backcourt. Charlie suddenly made a long pass, and after the football flew past half the court, it fell to the front of Tottenham's penalty area, and this time it was not He Xu who received the ball, but Garrincha, who suddenly stepped forward. Garrincha stretched out his foot and landed the ball at his feet beautifully, just like he did last season when he worked with Libo. If he was used to it, he would have to pull the ball into the opponent's goal with the outside of his instep. This time, though, he didn't, and after stopping the ball, he just drove the ball to the bottom line at a fast pace. Subsequently, when Kyle. After Walker's tackle was dodged by him, he made an inverted triangle back pass and passed the ball to the feet of He Xu, who was following up in the middle.

Lloris knew that Garrincha had a shot from a small angle, so he kept his attention on Garrincha, so he actually forgot that there was an even more terrifying He Xu in the middle.

He Xu stretched out his foot a little too easily, and his toe lightly touched the football, 1-0, and Arsenal, who were playing away, took the lead.

Wenger didn't celebrate much, just shook his arms, knowing that it wasn't the last goal. It's too much energy to get excited so early now.

Villas-Boas watched his goal finally miss, and he couldn't care about the players who continued to blame him. He just walked briskly to the side of the pitch and shouted at the players: "Pick up the ball and cross more into the box!" They have few defenders and none of them are good at heading! This is an advantage for us! Suppress them! Then look for a chance to score, and definitely can't let them go into the second half with this lead! Hurry up, go score for me! ”

Looking at his peers standing on the sidelines yelling, Wenger just shook his head, I won't steal the limelight from you, anyway, my players know what they have to do. I guess after a while, they'll be able to make you change your tactics again by their actions.

In the 22nd minute of the first half, Arsenal scored a goal with a light shot after He Xu followed up in the middle. 1-0 ahead of Tottenham Hotspur at home, and Arsenal has an absolute advantage in the situation, if it weren't for Lloris's excellent play today, blocking He Xu's two very threatening shots, I think the current score will not be as simple as 1-0. ”

Lennon and Lamela got the coach's request to dribble down and try to cross, and although their crosses were done with ease, every time they sent the ball into the box, their two centre-forwards had to face the opposing five men to recover Massimo in the box. Charlie and Fell are both good headers, plus the height advantage is obvious, so Adebayo and Soldado either flew the ball under interference several times in a row, or they couldn't hit the ball at all.

Faced with this scene, Boas couldn't control his anger again, and before he could shout angrily again, he was hit again. During the counterattack, Garrincha received a direct pass from Tang Lintian, and then after dribbling past Vertonghen, he fired a very sudden cold shot, and the ball bounced off the ground and bounced into the goal from the palm of Lloris's hand! 2-0, a very wonderful and classic textbook counter-attack goal, from Massimo. Charlie's broken pass, and then Tang Lintian's ecstasy, of course, the most able to play the finishing touch is Garrincha's wonderful shot, Lloris's direction is actually very accurate, but he missed the calculation that Garrincha's shot will actually fall and rebound.

At this time, Wenger's face showed a little joy, 2-0, if the score was this in the first half, there would be no suspense in the second half.

It's not that Wenger is arrogant, it's just that the current team has given him enough confidence.

Seeing the joy on the faces of his players returning to the dressing room, Wenger clapped his hands with great satisfaction, "All right, boys! You did a great job in the first half! Then in the second half, let's continue the momentum of the first half! Don't give our opponents a chance! Don't forget that only actual combat is the best opportunity to train tactics and coordination. ”

In the home team's dressing room, Villas-Boas was angrily pointing at his players and yelling, "That's what you gave me?" Is this the result of our summer of training? Scored two goals in a row in the first half by a group of little cubs, and they all lost their temper? Your defensive prowess simply doesn't reassure me! Of course, there is also your attack ability, which does not reassure me even more! If that's how you play, I think we can all go to the Championship next season! It must be interesting there, and it must feel great there! ”

Tottenham's players are sitting in their seats, their heads down, and they don't understand why they are so confined by Arsenal's players. Didn't we go evenly when we met last season?

After Boas finished his fire, he looked at Lennon and Lamela who went down again and again in the first half according to their own requirements, and his tone softened a little, "In the second half of the game, you two don't blindly shoot from a distance, occasionally with a long shot, to harass the goalkeeper on the opposite side!" Don't let him take it too easy, the side lane won't work, let's try to go in the middle! ”

If you want to go in the middle, why don't you change to Dembele until now? (To be continued......)
