No. [057] Return: The menacing miner brothers
Dongfang Chen said in an interview with media reporters before the game: "Every game is very important, we will go all out in every game, and this game will naturally be no exception." β
Dongfang Chen also said: "Shakhtar Donetsk is very strong, we will pay attention to this. But that won't be an obstacle to our victory, which must be ours at Arsenal. β
Media reporters also asked Dongfang Chen questions about Eduardo, and they wanted to see what Dongfang Chen thought of Eduardo?
Dongfang Chen frowned slightly and said: "To be honest, I am not very familiar with Eduardo, I only know that he used to be a member of the Arsenal team, and he was injured very badly. Other than that, I don't know much. β
Dongfang Chen continued: "I regret Eduardo's injury. I hope this injury doesn't hit him and affect him. Hopefully his future will be good, that's all. β
Dongfang Chen's answer made the media reporters slightly stunned, they really didn't expect Dongfang Chen to answer like this.
The media reporters would not let Dongfang Chen go lightly, and they asked Dongfang Chen: "May I ask Dongfang Chen, why is there such a big difference between your front and back tables?" Will you be back to the way you started the season now? Do you think you'll still be able to score in this game? β
Obviously, the media reporters are full of suspicion about Dongfang Chen's watch, they don't believe that Dongfang Chen will have any good watch, and this time Dongfang Chen will definitely be beaten back to his original shape.
Dongfang Chen naturally knew very well what these media reporters thought, and he sneered and said, "Hehe! I know what you're thinking? I can tell you very clearly that you are wrong. How exactly is my watch, you can keep an eye on this game. β
After finishing speaking, Dongfang Chen didn't give these media reporters a chance, and turned around and left directly.
Dongfang Chen's words made the media reporters feel that Dongfang Chen was a little arrogant, and they all looked at Dongfang Chen's back coldly, waiting for Dongfang Chen to make a fool of himself.
After that, the major media have reported on this game, all of which are warming up for the game between Shakhtar Donetsk and Arsenal, and their reports have made more people pay attention to this game and are looking forward to this game.
Shakhtar Donetsk also came to London the day before the game to prepare for the game. On this night, they also went to the Emirates Stadium in London to step on the pitch and do adaptation training.
Now, Shakhtar Donetsk have prepared for the final points of this game and are looking forward to the start of this game.
October 20, 2010, London, England, sunny weather.
It was a midweek weekday, but there were still a lot of Arsenal fans coming to the Emirates Stadium to cheer on their favorite team.
Arsenal fans wore their home red shirts, pulled up their familiar banners and chanted loudly to cheer on their home team, Arsenal.
When everyone didn't expect it, there were still many Shakhtar Donetsk fans who came to the scene today to cheer for their team.
It's a weekday, and I'm going to another country to cheer for the team, these Shakhtar Donetsk fans are really too hardcore. It looks like there are six or seven thousand people left in this fan group, and even ten thousand. This is really surprising.
"Hello everyone, fans! This is Sky Sports, and I'm Andy Gray! "Sky Sports was going to broadcast this game live.
"Hello everyone! I'm Martin Taylor, and today I'm going to be partnering with Andy Gray to review the game for you! Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said.
"Today we are bringing you a match from Group 8 of the third round of the 2010-2011 UEFA Champions League group stage, against the home team Arsenal and the away team Shakhtar Donetsk." Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.
At that moment, the players from both sides were in the dressing room listening to the manager's final set-up.
"Arsenal and Shakhtar Donetsk have won the first two rounds of games, both with six points, but Arsenal have a few more goal difference than Shakhtar Donetsk, so now Arsenal are top of the group and Shakhtar Donetsk are second in the group. However, the gap between the two teams is not huge, and even two goals in a game can change the pattern between them, so this game is very important. Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said.
"If Arsenal want to win this group, they have to win against Shakhtar Donetsk to have an advantage, otherwise they will have to rely on the top spot in the group. And this home game is particularly important and must be won. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.
"Okay, the players from both sides have appeared in the tunnel and are getting ready to play, so let's introduce you to the starting line-ups of both sides today." Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.
"Okay, first of all, let me introduce you to the starting list of the away team Shakhtar Donetsk today." Sky Sports commentator Martin Short said, "Shakhtar Donetsk today is a 4231 formation, with the goalkeeper in Piatov. β
Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor continued: "Srna, Rakitski, Kuchelsey and Rattle in a back four. Among them, Srna is their captain. β
Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said: "In the back two positions are Hubsman and Gay. β
Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said: "The three in the forward line are William Ann, Teixeira and Mikquitayan. β
Sky Sports commentator Comrade Martin Taylor continued: "The lone striker was Luis Adriano, while Eduardo was on the bench waiting for his chance. β
Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray immediately said: "Okay, that's the starting line-up for the away Shakhtar Donetsk, now I'm going to give you a brief overview of the home team's Arsenal starting line-up. β
Andy Gray began to introduce to the cheers of the fans: "ArsΓ¨ne Wenger today is a four-four-two formation, and the goalkeeper is Fabianski. β
Andy Gray immediately said: "Yes, you heard Fabianski right, because Almunia was injured and Szczesny was on the bench. β
Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray continued: "In the back four are Eboue, Squeerage, Johan Jouru and Klich. β
'Arsenal centre-back Gallas is on the injured list, Vermaelen is also on the injury list, while Koscielny was on the bench today waiting for his chance.
"In the midfield four, it's Theo Walcott, Wilshere, Cesc Fabregas and Nasri!" Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said, "Today the pressure is on the bench and Nasri is back in the starting line-up. β
"The two in the forward line are Dongfang Chen and Robin van Persie." Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said, "Today Dongfang Chen is back in the team's starting line-up, and it seems that the last game gave Wenger confidence. β
"Yes, in the last game against Manchester United, Dongfang Chen's watch was really amazing. Dongfang Chen's start in this game was also expected by me. Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said, "But what worries me today is the Arsenal backline, the two centre-backs are a bit unsettling. β
'It's true that the two have rarely played together at centre-back before, so we don't know how well they work together. This is a set in the Arsenal squad. Time. Explode. This is where the biggest crisis of the Arsenal team lies today. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray also said.
At this time, the players of both sides were already in their seats in the stadium, waiting for the game to begin.
Shakhtar Donetsk strikers Luis Adriano and William Ann stood in the centre circle of the pitch and it was clear that it was Shakhtar Donetsk who had the ball.
The referee looked left and right and found nothing unusual, then he looked down at the time again and blew the whistle in his mouth.
Luis Adriano immediately took the ball a little and then raced into the Arsenal half, while William Ann played the ball back.
Dongfang Chen and Van Persie also rushed into the half of Shakhtar Donetsk at high speed, rushing wildly towards football.
"The referee blew the whistle and the first half began, with the first kick-off being the visiting Shakhtar Donetsk, who wore an orange jersey and attacked from the left side of the screen to the right. Arsenal, on the other hand, wore red jerseys and attacked from the right side of the screen to the left. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.
As soon as the game began, the Arsenal fans erupted in frantic shouts to give Shakhtar Donetsk a dismount and let the Shakhtar Donetsk players see how powerful they are.
However, Shakhtar Donetsk's players were not disturbed too much and they threw themselves into the game.
As soon as they came up, the players of Shakhtar Donetsk did have some intention of being anti-guest-oriented, and they attacked frantically as soon as they came up.
As soon as the ball rolled to the feet of midfielder Gayi, he immediately turned the ball upside down in midfield and slowly pressed forward in formation, pressing both full-backs on it.
Suddenly, under the pressure of Dongfang Chen, Hubsmann suddenly passed the football to the front wing. Where, Shakhtar Donetsk's captain Srna immediately rushed forward with the ball, rushed to the Arsenal half, and killed the Arsenal penalty area.
"It's fast! Srna rushed, danger! Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray immediately exclaimed loudly.
Srna's ability is very strong, this is Croatia's country, the absolute core of Shakhtar Donetsk's team, he can play the position of full-back, he can also play the position of the side of the midfield, he is very fast, the body is okay, the strength is good.
It is said that many teams in Europe's top five leagues have a strong interest in him, and it is said that Wolfsburg and Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, as well as Aston Villa, West Ham United, Sunderland and other teams in the Premier League are very interesting to him.
Srna immediately sprinted down the flank, and the Arsenal defenders were shocked, and Arsenal full-back Klich immediately pounced, and the two full-backs faced off.
But after seeing Klich rush out, Srna immediately gently passed the ball to the middle, and William Ann caught it.
Chrissy immediately turned to pounce on William Ann, who immediately passed the ball back to the wing, and the ball quickly rolled past Chrissy's feet and straight behind him.
"Two over one, dangerous! Srna is incheted! Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray growled.
The Arsenal fans at the scene also immediately erupted in frightened screams, they were very frightened, they didn't expect Shakhtar Donetsk to get such a good opportunity so quickly.
Cut inside, Srna cut straight inside with the ball.
Klich immediately gritted his teeth and desperately chased back, while Johan Djoul in the middle immediately pounced and came up to intercept Srna.
Srna immediately changed direction and took the ball towards the baseline, evading an interception from John Djurou. Chase the ball like crazy and cross it when the ball is about to go out of the line!
