'Arsenal equalised! No one expected it to be Toure who helped the team score the crucial goal! What's even more incredible is Qin Xiong, who completed an assist that can be called an artistic masterpiece! Look no further than he stopped when he met Pire's terrible corner near the bottom line in the box, and when the ball bounced past him, he completed a spectacular half-turn with the trajectory of the ball, while the left heel knocked the ball up with a small amount of space, forming an assist that caught the Chelsea defence off guard! Chelsea's defence is solid, and this has been evident in the Premier League this season, and it will take a lot more creativity and surprise to break down their doors, so will Arsenal's attack be a tactical arrangement? I think of course it can't be, this is an improvisation by Qin Xiong and has received very good results! Now that the score is 1-1, it is still not good for Arsenal and we can expect what to expect next. ”

Toure was surrounded by his teammates after scoring the goal, and Qin Xiong, who gave the assist, was also praised by his teammates.

Arsene Wenger's face was better, but for some reason, the team played a dazzling and wonderful attack, but he always felt something bad in his heart.

It's as if victory rests on luck.

It is a hard fact that Arsenal may not be able to take advantage of the same opportunity when it comes, and in the big picture, Chelsea are in the better position to attack.

But just like in the game against Bayern Munich, after the visitors scored first, the home team has very little room to adjust, no matter what, to score, to win, to win more!

Jose Mourinho accepted the reality of his team's conceded goal with a blank face. He had already come to his senses. Utilitarian football will be strong. But it doesn't mean that utilitarian football can become the hegemon of the world, when the opponent uses a higher force to break down the steel barrier, don't be angry, don't panic, don't lose your mind!

There is nothing to complain about when the defensive counterattack itself has already occupied the commanding heights of the offensive space, and is destroyed by the opponent with a flashy attack.

Chelsea showed no signs of panic after conceding the goal, and they were more composed and composed than Arsenal had hoped.

Qin Xiong tried to find Henry directly in midfield after the game restarted. Pire, Ljungberg, sent them a high-threat through ball, after most of the season of running-in and familiarization, they all know Qin Xiong's ability, and know that they should cooperate with Qin Xiong's passing.

But if Qin Xiong wants to send a scalpel directly from the middle, it will always be in vain, Makelele itself is an insurmountable barrier, Chelsea's back line today, to put it mildly, is four central defenders. Their defensive habits tend to be adducted, which has greatly limited Arsenal's dominant style of play.

So it became Arsenal who pushed the attack to the front line from midfield. It is often Pire or Ljungberg who have the ball on the outside of the wing, and the closer you get to the danger zone, the less room there is for the combination of the side and the centre, as Chelsea have done a great job of shrinking their defence and squeezing space into attack.

'The first half ended 1-1, both teams played a good goal for a period and scored separately, and now the situation is a bit against Arsenal, if Chelsea hold on to the draw, then the next leg goes to Stamford Bridge, Chelsea have a huge advantage to qualify for the last four of the Champions League!'

As he left the field, Henry trotted over to Qin Xiong and began to discuss with him the details of the game.

'It's hard for us to penetrate vertically to break down Chelsea's defence.

'Well, I'm aware of that, too, because the opposition back line is very well protected in the box, unlike the combination of two full-backs and two centre-backs.

Fullback, as the name suggests, is a defender on the wing, although this role has the responsibility of assisting in the penalty area, but more or less will pay attention to the defense of the outside, but today the four defenders in the Chelsea back line have the attributes of central defenders, which makes them less motivated to defend on the outside, so it is difficult to appear in the ribs.

Arsenal are communicating within the squad trying to find the code to break down Chelsea's defence.

Arsene Wenger also fine-tuned his attacking strategy in this regard at half-time, asking Qin Xiong to be more active in directly threatening the opponent's penalty area, and Vieira was responsible for stabilizing the ball to the wings.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and Chelsea looked unchanged, still relying on first-half tactics to shake up Arsenal's defence.

This set of anti-counter-attack tactics Chelsea has honed with great skill, and it is almost a success!

Barcelona were devastated by Chelsea's counter-attacking storm.

Arsenal were more focused on attacking from the flanks in the second half.

Instead of playing hard in the middle of the inefficient field, it is better to force the shot from the wing, as long as you threaten, and then force Chelsea to adjust! Then catch the flaws that may be exposed in the process of the opponent's adjustment!

In the 57th minute of the game, Qin Xiong and Vieira cooperated in the front and back of the midfield, he took the initiative to pull the side and then collided with Pire on the left side to cooperate with the wall, after getting rid of Lampard, Qin Xiong cut the middle from the left side in front of the penalty area, and shot without giving Makelele a chance to get close!

The ball flew around Gallas into the top right corner of the net and Cech made a brilliant save!

"Cech turned away Qin Xiong's inevitable goal! The stability of Chelsea's defence is inseparable from Petr Cech's excellent performance this season, and he definitely has the quality to become the world's number one goalkeeper! ”

In the 60th minute of the game, Drogba once again singled out Sendros, and the two lost control of the football after the collision, turning it into a 55-open scramble opportunity, but fortunately Ashley Cole was clever enough to return to the penalty area from the wing to clear the football big foot, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable.

Senderos was a Chelsea target and he worked hard to put himself under pressure, but Drogba's growing courage inevitably made him feel dangerous.

In the 64th minute of the game, Qin Xiong played a one-two with Ljungberg on the right side, and the football that Ljungberg passed back to Qin Xiong was destroyed by Hute out of the sideline.

The fans in the stands felt the tightness of the game, and the battle between the London duo was so intense that Chelsea's defensive prowess was an eye-opener for the fans, because most of the time, Chelsea played some mid-table teams in the league and not many neutral fans wanted to watch because the game was so boring.

It is no coincidence that Chelsea have been able to concede the fewest goals and the best defence in the league, even in Europe's top five leagues!

And it is precisely today that Arsenal has the strongest attacking firepower among Europe's top five leagues.

It's a spear and shield war! (To be continued......)
