Strategists on the 395 Pitch!
"Arsenal have scored! The scorer is Qin Xiong! Super Qin Xiong! In the absence of Henry and Pire, and the attack power was greatly weakened, Qin Xiong shouldered the most important task in attack: scoring goals! Will his goal open the door for Arsenal to win? Now Arsenal have too much of a goal difference advantage and they only need to win the game to get three points and they will certainly be able to maintain their goal of leading Chelsea! â
After the celebration, Fabregas whispered to Qin Xiong: "Now that we have scored, shouldn't we shift the attack and suddenly hit Volnock?" â
Qin Xiong looked back at Liverpool's half and replied: "It's okay, but if that kind of work is done by you, it may be too conspicuous, Sesk, leave it to me, believe me." â
Fabregas smiled, believe? This is needless to say, they are friends and teammates, and he has long been convinced of Qin Xiong's strength.
Benitez's face was grim, he didn't expect Arsenal to attack the left side and actually break through Liverpool's defense!
It may have been a deviation from Liverpool's defensive set-up, as they didn't wait for a storm at Volnock's point, but Finnan's devastating attack fell apart.
Liverpool had a tough game, they wanted to attack, they attacked, but they couldn't do it.
Even an iron man like Gerrard has been weak after a season of high-intensity campaigning.
Qin Xiong understands Liverpool's predicament very well, because Arsenal has also come through this at a certain stage, and the key point is never whether a player is still full of fitness, but your teammates. Is everyone together on the same rhythm!
Now Liverpool's problems are clear. The attack up front is disjointed.
Morientes and Cisse are full of fitness. The activity was very positive, but Risse and Colwell were obviously slower than them, and it was difficult to find that tacit and unified balance when everyone cooperated!
Steven Gerrard is a good playmaker, but only excellent, not the top of his organisational skills, so he can drive Liverpool's spirit, but he can't make Liverpool fit together in practice. It's Alonso who really does the job!
However, the veteran Hamann needs to recuperate, and Alonso's position is too deep, in the Premier League, a midfielder who is too far back and has to take care of the defense can instigate the attack, but it is difficult to play the effect of controlling the field to drive the rhythm.
Cisse was frozen by Campbell, Morientes was without support from his teammates, and Lauren and Ashley Cole were experienced in changing positions in opposition attacking formations.
On the basis of better fitness, there are few obvious holes in the Arsenal backline that can be caught by opponents.
Steven Gerrard faced Patrick Vieira and Silva up front, and he was left isolated after conceding a number of goals. Wide teammates are slow to pick up, and forward teammates want to pass the ball at a faster pace. That's the obvious offensive disconnect!
In the 27th minute of the game, Qin Xiong once again passed Finnan on the left side of the field, this time he continued to dribble in the penalty area, and when Carragher came to help the defense, he passed the ball back to the top of the penalty area, Alonso failed to keep an eye on Cesc Fabregas, who was inserted behind, and let the Spanish genius blast a shot of great quality.
Dudek made a world-class save to keep the ball out.
There was applause from the Highbury stands, and after a season of training, Cesc Fabregas' progress was recognised by the fans.
Rafael Benitez was always frowning on the sidelines.
Are Arsenal still playing on the left?
Do you really not care about Volnock?
Or is it because the left side of the attack has been determined to be the most efficient after it has been effective?
Liverpool, however, could not allow Arsenal to be so reckless on the left.
Their defensive center of gravity began to tilt and invisibly overturned Benitez's pre-match defensive set-up.
That doesn't work at all!
If Arsenal don't play on the right flank, they won't be able to play as well as they intended.
Qin Xiong was successfully broken by Carragher in the 34th minute of the game, and after being cut off, Qin Xiong wanted to counter-attack on the spot, but Alonso quickly kicked the ball towards the front.
However, Qin Xiong was not discouraged, he turned his head to look at Liverpool's defense.
Manuel Pellegrino stood in the middle of the goal, and Carragher was in the open position on the left side of the penalty area, and only began to readjust after the defense was successful.
Qin Xiong raised an inexplicable smile.
Three minutes later, Cesc Fabregas met Patrick Vieira's through ball and slid across the half-pitch before slotting the ball straight to Bergkamp who had retreated forward.
The Dutch veteran kicked the ball out without stopping, and the ball rolled to the left wing.
Qin Xiong cut directly from the side to the middle, not paying attention to where Finnan was, and when he started to burst out to catch the football, Liverpool's defense quickly adjusted, and the tendency to shrink to Qin Xiong's side was very obvious.
Qin Xiong didn't stop the ball, and directly used his right instep to rub out an outward rotation arc ball!
The ball flew through the gap between Finnan and Carragher, and flew around the centre-backs to the right side of the box!
Everyone saw that Liverpool was slightly empty in the right half of the penalty area, and a figure cut straight into the hinterland of the penalty area like a sharp knife!
Ljungberg!
Where is Volnock?
Still on the wing outside the box!
The youngster, who hadn't been hit in a long time, made a mistake on key markings, and he didn't keep up with Ljungberg, and he may still be wondering: how did the ball come over?
Ljungberg unloaded the ball forward with his chest in the forward rush and shot diagonally at the goal!
The ball goes straight to the inside of the far post!
Dudek didn't even make a save, this shot was so powerful that he couldn't react at all!
'Arsenal scored the second goal! Ljungberg has taken another solid step towards defending the league title for Arsenal! Oh, my God! It's Qin Xiong's assist again! His 34th league assist of the season! What kind of assist record does the European assist king want to set in ZĂ o? â
Fabregas laughed and ran from behind in the direction where Ljungberg was, and he saw Qin Xiong running towards Ljungberg with a wild look on his face.
A sense of admiration rose in his heart.
Arsenal have not attacked the right side for a long time, but when they will really break the opponent's right side purposefully, it will not rely on a sustained attack on the right side, but by surprise!
Hurry up and be ruthless! Fatal with one hit!
This is Qin Xiong's organizational thinking, he not only has the technical ability that an organizer should have, but also the organizer's more valuable strategic awareness!
There are many levels of game on the green field, such as technique, physical fitness, teamwork, cooperation, physical elements, and of course, the most crucial one, the mind, consciousness!
It's no wonder that many of the top instructors are very much admirers of China's Art of War, and the court is like a battlefield, and the art of war strategy actually has a place in this level, and can play a key role!
Qin Xiong's sense of strategic layout is at least two levels and realms higher than that of ordinary organizers, which is what Fabregas admires the most! (To be continued......)
