Chapter 100: Beast Waist Xiao Qing
Because Arsenal's own defensive ability is not outstanding, and Arsenal's main defender Alexander Song was absent from the game in this game, Arsenal at this time is naturally more difficult to limit Inter Milan's two major midfield attackers. Now Arsenal is being suppressed by Inter Milan, whether it is Diaby or Rosicky and others, they are obviously not the opponents of Sneijder's Inter Milan midfield.
For a team, while a good forward line can help the team score goals, they can help the team contain the opposition's defence. But the midfield is sometimes more important for a team, because it is the core of the transition between attack and defense, and if you control the midfield, you can take more initiative and control the rhythm of the game to a great extent.
While Cesc Fabregas may be talented in attack, he is a great midfield commander; But now he seems to be a hero and there is no way for him to unleash his talent in the attacking end, because the team is suppressed, because the midfield is now dominated by Inter Milan.
Arsenal are hurting right now, and although they were confident before the start of this game, although Arsenal were in overall control, Arsenal looked passive so far in the game, and they were under strong sniping at the Meazza Stadium, and Arsenal looked a little weak from the start of the game. It's not that Arsenal doesn't work hard enough, it's that Inter Milan's desire to win is too strong, and it's the crazy impact of Inter Milan that has put huge pressure on Arsenal.
Arsenal lost control of the midfield, which also made it difficult for the Gunners to form a good attack; Arsenal's rhythm has been disrupted, and in attack Arsenal need to encounter strong sniping from Inter Milan; Cambiasso and Motta are both excellent midfielders. They were able to disrupt Arsenal's attacking tempo. Their interception left Arsenal in a midfield quagmire. Defensively, Arsenal have been more passive. With Sneijder and Stankovic active and lacking a defender with excellent defensive ability, Arsenal's midfielders are now more focused on defence.
Xiao Qing is also very depressed now, although he is full of confidence in this game, but from the beginning of the game to the present, Xiao Qing does feel the pressure; The game has been more than fifteen minutes, but Xiao Qing has received very few passes during this time, and more importantly, the current Arsenal attack has completely lost its discipline. It is now difficult for them to create enough threat in attack, which also makes it impossible for Arsenal to make Inter Milan have something to fear in the game.
Xiao Qing has a headache, although he knows that it must be very passive to be controlled by Inter Milan in this way, although Xiao Qing is trying his best to help the team open up the situation; But although Xiao Qing has a strong determination, he can't receive the pass at all, and now he can only watch Inter Milan impact the team's defense again and again.
If you can use a few high-quality attacks in the game to put some pressure on Inter, then it is obviously the best way to go; Now Inter Milan is completely on the rise, they are in high spirits now, they are in great shape now. If Arsenal continue to defend like this, there is no guarantee that Arsenal will be breached again in the next game. Although Arsenal are already working hard, they still have a lot of defensive pressure.
After a brief and quick discussion with Van Persie. Now Xiao Qing can only retreat to participate in the defense; Xiao Qing's Liliang is excellent and explosive, and his speed is fast, although Xiao Qing does not have much experience on the defensive end, but such excellent physical conditions can still make him make a little cameo appearance in some times to participate in defense. Now Arsenal need to freeze Inter's increasingly active attack, Xiao Qing needs to help his teammates stabilize their position, and they cannot allow Sneijder's Inter midfield to continue to be so active.
Xiao Qing has participated in defense and has excellent physical fitness, so Xiao Qing is now more likely to show a beast-waisted role; The so-called beast waist intuitively looks like a wild beast, and its temper and style are like a wild beast. The general view is that he is a tough midfielder, has a tough style, has a super physical confrontation ability, and of course, there is a bad jishu. Although Xiao Qing thinks that he looks pretty good, when he retreats to the midfield, he seems to be more hoode.
In order to help the team stabilize its position, in order to help the team limit the active Inter midfielder, Xiao Qing must put pressure on Sneijder, the core of Inter.
In the twenty-first minute of the game, Sneijder, who had just gotten rid of Diabi, suffered a heavy blow; In the exclamation of the Emirates Stadium, I saw Xiao Qing, who was killed in the oblique stab, shovel from a distance. As an experienced player, Sneijder made timely self-protection; But he still led the ball and was shoveled to the ground by Xiao Qing. 、
The boos at the Meazza Stadium suddenly sounded, Sneijder was a core player of Inter Milan, and seeing him encounter Xiao Qing's rough defense really made Inter Milan fans very unhappy. Xiao Qing was still a friend, and he reached out to pull Sneijder, who was holding his ankle, but Xiao Qing was pushed away by the Inter Milan players who rushed up quickly, and they didn't appreciate it.
Xiao Qing felt very wronged, the conscience of heaven and earth, in the Premier League, such an action is actually not a particularly bad defense, although the action is indeed a bit big, but Xiao Qing did not show the soles of his shoes, he didn't want to hurt people at all. But obviously the players of Inter Milan did not accept it, and the referee directly gave Xiao Qing a yellow card.
Xiao Qing shook his head depressedly, although this action deserves a yellow card, Xiao Qing feels that if it is in the Premier League, in the Emirates Stadium, this is at most a matter of being verbally warned. It can only be said that in the Premier League, the physical confrontation is very fierce, and the defensive action there is indeed generally larger. Therefore, many defensive actions that do not seem particularly bad in the Premier League are a bit big in the eyes of players in other leagues; Even in the Serie A league that emphasizes defense, Xiao Qing's actions are considered to be a bit excessive.
Although he felt a little wronged, Xiao Qing still accepted the fact that he had a yellow card on his back; Although this kind of treatment makes Xiao Qing feel some pressure, Xiao Qing is not a full-time defensive player after all, and he only needs to pay attention to it, so Xiao Qing still doesn't have to worry too much about being sent off for accumulating yellow cards in the game.
Although he got a yellow card, it will not affect Xiao Qing's determination on the defensive end, for Xiao Qing the game still needs to continue, and now he will still work hard to help the team participate in the defense. Arsenal need to stand up and Arsenal need to freeze Sneijder's Inter midfield. So Xiao Qing will run very hard, and Xiao Qing will actively intercept.
Three minutes after Xiao Qing received a yellow card, Koscielny was cautioned for dragging Sneijder down behind his back, and Stankovic's right-footed free kick from 30 meters out in the middle was saved. In the 28th minute of the game, Sneijder's breakthrough in the middle was intercepted by Xiao Qing and Diaby, and Stankovic's left-footed curling shot from the inside of the penalty area became an anti-aircraft gun and did not pose a threat.
Arsenal has increased the intensity on the defensive end, although the current Arsenal has basically done nothing on the offensive end, but the current Arsenal continues to increase the defensive intensity, which has also caused a lot of trouble in the original Inter Milan midfield. Although Xiao Qing's defensive ability is really not outstanding, Xiao Qing's excellent physical speed and active running still put a lot of pressure on Inter Milan's players; Although Arsenal do not have a very good midfielder, the attitude of the players is very positive, which can make up for the lack of Arsenal midfield defense to the greatest extent.
Xiao Qing is still very happy now, because the team is performing very well now, because although Arsenal is a little passive now, there is not much threat for the time being; Although they did not pose much of a threat in attack, they also temporarily put an end to Inter's defence. The two teams are now battling it out in midfield, and now the two teams are in a stalemate, and they are both trying to get the upper hand.
Arsenal is finally no longer so passive, although Arsenal still doesn't have much to do on the offensive end, but they are also relieved, they are no longer passive, and now they can be regarded as being able to limit Inter Milan's play. For Arsenal, they are not worried about the team's attack at all, as long as they can slow down, as long as they can suppress Inter Milan's attack a little, Arsenal may strengthen the threat in the offensive end at any time, for Arsenal, their achievements in the offensive end are already quite good, as long as Inter Milan loses the previous sharpness, then it is Arsenal's time to play.
Xiao Qing was waiting for a more opportunity, and Xiao Qing's current position began to slowly move forward; The team's defensive pressure has dropped now, and Inter's midfield is now less active. Although Xiao Qing feels that it is sometimes fun on the defensive end, his job is to attack and help the team score goals. So now it's time for Xiao Qing to return to his position and do his job, and for Xiao Qing, it's time to work hard to score goals.
Xiao Qing and his teammates are obviously not satisfied with the current score, although Arsenal is leading in the big score, but such a score cannot make Arsenal proud. They want to beat Inter Milan and they want to qualify for the quarter-finals of the Champions League! (To be continued......)
