Chapter 387: Confused Arsenal

Arsenal because of the ferocious offensive firepower, the three lines are more advanced. In the 38th minute, Arsenal chose to play the ball and shoot from distance as the pass could not open up the situation.

Of course, Ramsey did not allow to get the ball for the first long-range shot, and after receiving the ball, Ramsey swung his leg to shoot from a distance.

Because Arsenal's attacking style has been figured out by Aston Villa in the past 30 minutes, so I saw Ramsey touch the ball and united to Ramsey's current position. Defender Ahmadi knew that Ramsey would choose to shoot from distance, and took the first step to judge the route the ball was going to take, and then came to Ramsey and stretched out his foot to block Ramsey's shot.

The ball was blocked, but Ahmadi crouched down and rubbed his calf, apparently Ramsey's shot was not clear at all.

"Moroccan midfielder Ahmadi is also blocking the machine gun with his body, which time is Ramsey's shooting power less? Poor Ahmadi, he must be in pain now. ”

The Arsenal players were still lamenting that when another attack was fruitless, no one noticed that the ball on Ahmadi's calf coincidentally bounced to the feet of the striker Weimann.

Although Weimann is only twenty-three years old, he is already an absolute workhorse at Aston Villa. Wearing the number 10 jersey, he took the ability of this legendary number to the extreme.

Without thinking about it, he raised his right foot and kicked it out. The seemingly random kick slid over Vermaelen's head, which was in a different position from Koscielny.

Benteke glanced up at the ball in the air and began to run towards the frontcourt. Koscielny hurriedly stepped back, and when he turned, it happened that the halfway line was about twelve yards away.

It is conceivable that Arsenal's backline is pressing much forward.

Benteke doesn't have much of an advantage in terms of speed, but he has an absolute advantage in terms of height. At 1.90m tall, he is a beacon up front, and neither Vermaelen nor Koscielny is as tall as him. The only ones who can beat him are goalkeeper Szczesny and German centre-back Merderssat on the bench.

Judged where the ball would land, and then pressed Koscielny to jump. But Benteke didn't unload the ball, and with a flick of his head, it flew into the unoccupied area in front of him and Koscielny.

The position was empty and Vermaelen was chasing back, but his position was still behind Koscielny. Koscielny and Benteke jumped up at the same time, but the ball was headed wide by the opposition. However, Monreal and Jenkinson are on the wing, and when he comes over to help prevent the daylily from being cold.

As soon as Koscielny landed, he was about to raise his leg and run towards the ball, when he saw a shadow suddenly rush past him.

Szczesny is young, but he has been Arsenal's number one goalkeeper for several seasons. In terms of experience and ability, he is also quite outstanding, so when he saw that the team was pressing forward, he himself came to the top of the arc of the penalty area, in order not to be too disconnected from the defensive line. But I was afraid of the other party's bizarre hanging door, so I didn't dare to step forward too much.

Seeing that Koscielny had no way to clear the ball, the opponent's No. 10 core Weimann rushed up from behind Koscielny again. Szczesny did not hesitate and went straight to the door.

Although goalkeeper Szczesny was already quite far up front, he was a little farther away from the ball than Weimann, and he was not as fast as his opponent.

After Weimann got the ball, he took two steps directly with the ball, originally wanting to change the line and use speed to bypass goalkeeper Szczesny. But Szczesny has already come up, and it is obvious that there is no easy detour at this time.

Weimann stepped lightly on the ball and then made a feint that accelerated towards Szczesny's left. Szczesny didn't have time to think about it, and reflexively moved a small step to his left, then stretched out his left leg to poke the ball. Because outside the penalty area, he didn't dare to pounce directly and hold the ball.

Weimann then slid the ball in the opposite direction and then scurried past Szczesny's right. Szczesny felt like his back was soaking wet at this point.

"Well done!! Weiman, past the goalkeeper!! In front of him will be an empty door!! ”

Weimann started the pace and dribbled towards the Arsenal goal, but when he was in the six-yard box, he didn't hit the empty net. Instead, he watched the defender who was not on the side of him and took the ball directly into the goal.

Although Li Zihan has been very active in chasing back to help the defense, he is too far away from the ball. Looking at the rubbing ball above Benteke's head, he had a sense of foreboding in his heart. Then he immediately chased back and ran towards his own backfield.

It's just that his position at this time is on the opponent's penalty line, and Weimann was ten yards away from the halfway line when he rushed out to receive the ball. By the time Weimann got past goalkeeper Szczesny, he had barely crossed the halfway point. In the end, Weimann was just in front of the arc of the penalty area, and he was still three or four yards away from the line of his own box. This is still his run, otherwise he would probably be near the location of Szczesny or Koscielny.

Li Zihan, who was still holding his breath, saw Wei Man gently push the ball into the net in front of the goal line, and suddenly his strength was as if he had been emptied, and the whole person fell directly into the arc of the big penalty area.

If it weren't for the violent rise and fall in his chest, many people would have thought he was asleep

Lee tried hard to catch up, but he couldn't save the team. His distance is too far, although his speed is the first in the Premier League, but it can't stop Weimann from being close. Lee once staged twice from the front court to use his speed advantage to chase back to his own backcourt, and then help the team to defuse the danger. But today, there weren't many 'obstacles' in front of Weiman, so it didn't help Lee delay some time. In the first two times, it was the other party who had to consider the situation before letting Li catch up from behind. ”

"Li Zihan is not cost-effective now, not to mention the success of 'firefighting', but a lot of body has been wasted!"

'Aston Villa are ahead of Arsenal on their home turf, is it destined to be another game that will frustrate the favourites?'

The frantic celebration of the Aston Villa fans reflected the sadness of the Arsenal fans. Amid the cheers of the Aston Villa fans, the Arsenal fans fell silent. It's just that many people looked at the figure lying in the arc of the penalty area in the stadium, and then clapped their hands.

Sometimes the demands of the fans are as simple as the players give their best and give their team a round of applause even if they end up losing the game.

"We are everywhere, where you are, Vera

This is our place

Our whole team is behind Vera

Every game, up and down the country

We're going to sing the song and when we're behind Vera, they can't go wrong

Sing, HIHO Aston Villa

Wherever you go, we will be with you

Regardless of the weather, we will sing this song with glory.

Vera, Vera, Vera, Vera!!! ”

To the brisk beat of the fans, Aston Villa's fans sang the famous ballad.

The reason why it is famous is that the music of this rhythm has been changed to several versions, including Sheffield Wednesday, Wolves and other teams use the same "blueprint".

Beat a team like Arsenal twice in one season, and then pull them off when Arsenal are at the top of the table. This is more to celebrate than the three points for Aston Villa. Because they can't play the relegation battle without these three points, and they can't play the European competition with these three points

Szczesny looked at the goal behind him and Koscielny shook his head helplessly.

Arsene Wenger stood on the sidelines, gesturing to the incessant shouting of the pitch. It's just that the voices of the home fans at Villa Park are so loud that the microphones in the stadium fail to capture the specific content of Wenger's voice.

Just from the gestures, it seems to be making tactical adjustments. Although Arsene Wenger did not directly express his dissatisfaction with the team and his players, it seems from his iron face that he is not satisfied with the team's performance of nearly 40 minutes in the first half.

Aston Villa were keen to draw an hour to celebrate the goal, not to say they were as excited about the goal as they were to win a league title.

They just thought that when the celebration was over, the game would be over.

The referee apparently failed to make Aston Villa's attempt to waste time work, and soon, the game resumed when the Aston Villa players were reluctant and the Arsenal players were still in a trance.

After the game restarted, Arsenal ran out of ideas. They don't know now whether to step up their efforts to continue attacking and try for speed to equalize the score, or if they should start to pay attention to their defense.

Because if you continue to attack harder, it is very likely that the opponent will hit such a counterattack again. And if you start to think about defense, then the opponent will be more willing, and it will not be good for Arsenal to hold the ball and not attack for time, or to attack frantically with the ball.

Arsenal's players don't know when they start playing a mid-table team like Aston Villa, and they have so many scruples.

Perhaps for Arsenal, the real danger is not this one goal, nor is it being led by the opponent, let alone being beaten by Aston Villa this season and pulling down the leader of the standings, but the complex feelings of gains and losses itself!

Since Li Zihan came to Arsenal, although it has been very smooth, the team's cooperation and the relationship between the players are very good. The form is also good, the team is still in the first place in the standings, and is currently second for the time being due to this goal.

But he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say where. But when he saw the confused eyes of his teammates again today, he understood.
