Chapter 51: Slightly flawed
Arsenal are indeed depressed enough, they have always been in the first half of the initiative, and they can easily face the second half of the game with a large advantage in the score. But who would have thought that Arsenal seemed to be falling in the same place again, and once again Arsenal were led by two goals and were scored by their opponents to close the gap.
To be honest, this is really not a situation that Arsenal wants to see, they are really unhappy that the team is in crisis; Although they won against Tottenham Hotspur in the last round of the league, everyone can understand that victory came by chance, and Arsenal simply cannot survive every time.
However, although the current Villa team has scored to narrow the gap in the score, Arsenal will not panic; While Villa's goal gave Arsenal a difficult memory, the Gunners believe they can't afford to make big mistakes over and over again. There is definitely still some gap between the strength of the Villa team and Tottenham Hotspur, and the most important thing is that Arsenal will definitely cheer up at this time, they will not be broken by the Villa team again, and they will also try to score goals to help the team seal the win.
After conceding the goal, Arsenal launched a fierce attack, and Clarke was then booked for a foul on Sagna's back; The Gunners' ferocious attack put pressure on the Villa team, and at this time the Villa team also completely angered Arsenal, and they will start to face Arsenal's wave of counter-attacks.
In the 59th minute of the game, the Arsenal midfielder passed the ball to the front court, and Rosicky went straight to the periphery of the penalty area; Xiao Qing in the middle of the penalty area made a strong breakthrough after winning the ball, and Xiao Qing, who attracted the defense, lightly divided the ball on the right side of the small penalty area in the horror of the Villa Park stadium. Chamak, who plugged in, seized the opportunity. He stabbed straight past the onrushing Villa goalkeeper.
Three to one. Once again, Arsenal extended their lead. Arsenal's strong counter-attack after conceding the goal helped the team to be invincible, and Arsenal's goal almost completely extinguished Villa's fledgling hopes at this time.
Chamak was very happy to hug Xiao Qing, who gave the assist, playing football next to Xiao Qing is really a relatively easy thing; Although partnering with Xiao Qing is destined for Xiao Qing to steal almost all the scenery, Xiao Qing on the field will also take on more defensive attention, what Chamak needs to do at this time is to use Xiao Qing's containment to find the opponent's defensive loopholes, what he needs is to seize the opportunity created by Xiao Qing.
Xiao Qing was very happy that the team was leading again at this time, and Xiao Qing also believed that this-for-tat goal basically completely killed the confidence of the Villa team's counterattack. Xiao Qing is very sure that Arsenal will not fall again in the same place, and Xiao Qing believes that Arsenal will definitely be able to win this game. And don't be so thrilling.
The Arsenal players were delighted with their performance in the game, they didn't continue to make mistakes, they took their destiny into their own hands; More importantly, in their opinion, this game is completely free of waves, and they are fully sure of winning this game.
Arsenal will want to take advantage of the demoralisation of the Villa team to extend their lead and they will be hoping for a bigger win in this game; So at this time, Arsenal beat the Reservoir Dogs, they pressed forward in formation, and they were fighting for the next goal.
In the 65th minute of the game, Nasri cut the ball to the middle in the corner of the penalty area, ready to pass to the unmarked Arshavin on the left, and the defender intercepted the ball first.
Arsenal's unforgiving behaviour also angered Villa's players. Although there is still a significant gap between their record and Arsenal, although they are not the top giants; But Villa don't think their team is soft persimmon either. They're not that easy to bully either. So they are very unhappy with Arsenal's presumptuousness at Villa Park, and they can't accept being humiliated so unscrupulously by Arsenal at home. So the revenge of the Villa team was also unfolded, taking advantage of Arsenal's formation forward pressure and Arsenal's lack of defensive ability, the Villa team launched a counterattack.
In the 69th minute, Luke Young's cross was cleared by Sagna, and Clarke took the ball eight yards out and hit the side-netting! Although it was only a false alarm, it did give Arsenal a small warning; It's just that Arsenal didn't heed the warning this time, so they quickly learned their lesson. Because the fighting spirit of the Villa team saw the hope of scoring at this time, they were very sure that they could break the Arsenal goal again at this time
In the 71st minute, Ashley Young's corner kick was driven to the middle, Dunn's header was ferried, and Clarke came back to head the ball back from six yards out, and the ball bounced off the underside of the crossbar into the net, and the score was 2-3!
The Arsenal players looked at each other a little, and they watched the Villa players celebrate with some depression, and the cheers that rang out at the Villa Park stadium at this time were undoubtedly a sarcasm for Arsenal, and the Gunners were really hurt at this time.
Every time they have just taken the lead in the score, the gap is narrowed by the opponent, although Arsenal have worked hard, but their opponents only grasped Arsenal's small flaws to be able to score, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to the Gunners, which will undoubtedly make the originally high morale of the Gunners a little depressed.
The Gunners were frustrated, they had worked hard and focused in the game, but they were once again on the back of the net by Villa, and Arsenal were once again giving hope of an equaliser or even a reversal. I have to admit that this is definitely very bad news for the Gunners, and it is also a big blow to the Gunners' confidence.
Xiao Qing was speechless, the current Arsenal is once again only one goal ahead, which is undoubtedly an extremely unsafe score; In particular, the Villa team, who have once again narrowed the gap in the score, are now ambitious, they continue to narrow the score, they continue to move forward under great pressure and find opportunities, which must make the Villa players more confident at this time, they must be hoping to continue to score goals and completely equalize.
The tangled Xiao Qing knows that the first thing the team needs to do at this time is to withstand Aston Villa's counterattack, they need to make every effort to completely defeat Villa's attack, they need to give Villa a head attack in the next game, Arsenal can no longer give the Villa team a chance, Arsenal really needs to give Villa a fatal blow at this time.
Xiao Qing is holding back a ruthlessness in his heart, and now Xiao Qing knows that he needs to give them a blow when the morale of the Villa team is rising, Xiao Qing understands that he needs to help the team stabilize his position at this time; So Xiao Qing began to strengthen his personal attack, Arsenal was also ruthless at this time, they gave the opponent hope of counterattacking again and again, they didn't want to encounter a victory that made them embarrassed again in this game,
In the 76th minute of the game, Arshavin sent a wonderful pass, and the attacking Villa goalkeeper Friedel and defender Collins worked together to destroy Xiao Qing's shooting opportunity. In the 79th minute, Dunn again won Ashley Young's corner, but the header was denied by Fabianski. Arsenal quickly counterattacked, Xiao Qing received Arshavin's return pass from the left in the penalty area and shot high.
Although Arsenal still have a one-goal lead, although there is not much time left in the game; But Arsenal will not be satisfied with such a scoreline, they are not satisfied with such a win, they want the team to do better, they want to be able to achieve a bigger win in the game.
The game was also gradually coming to an end, although Arsenal were on the attack, but they still failed to score to extend their lead; Villa, on the other hand, were hoping for an equaliser, but they were unable to keep on the scoresheet and put on a thrilling home game, with their first home break of the season within reach.
In the ninetieth minute of the game, Xiao Qing's header near the penalty spot was confiscated by Friedel. The depressed Xiao Qing shook his head, although he was actively pursuing goals, but now the effect does not seem to be very good. However, although there is basically no suspense in the game, although the game is now close to the end, Arsenal did not give up like this.
Arsenal sealed the win in stoppage time with a counter-attack, and they were focused and aggressive, and once again they were able to win the game by a largely satisfactory one.
Chamak received the ball near the left post and picked it up to the back point, and Xiao Qing at the back point jumped high to head the ball; Substitute Wilshere burst into the air for his first goal in the Premier League, and he also helped Arsenal seal the game 4-2 this season.
Xiao Qing smiled and waved to the fans in the stands of the away team with his teammates, Xiao Qing was basically satisfied in this game, although Arsenal was a little flawed in this game, but overall the performance of the Gunners was still very good, Arsenal basically has been firmly in control of the rhythm of the game in this game, although they were twice narrowed by the opponent, but Arsenal still withstood the pressure, they still won the game.
Arsenal has once again won a victory in the league, and now Arsenal is also constantly advancing in the league; While this may not be Arsenal's most formal, the final result is satisfying as their strength in the league is evident. (To be continued......)
