Chapter 543: Wasted Opportunities Are Retribution

The first half ended with Arsenal leading 2-0 and the two teams going into stoppage time. In the fifteen minutes of the break, most commentators agreed that Arsenal had won the game, telling everyone that Arsenal were very good at playing downwind.

A quarter of an hour passed quickly, and the two sides changed sides in the second half.

"The second half of the game between the two sides has begun, Arsenal are aiming for this game, and the disparity between Hull City and Arsenal is huge!"

"Both sides have substitutions after the break, Hull City's side, the old Bruce first replaced the first half of the central defender Chester, Chester played eighteen games for Hull City this season and scored a goal, but obviously he is not in the state today, replaced by the old Bruce's son Alex Bruce, this is the battle is inseparable from the father and son, it seems that at the critical moment the old Bruce still trusts his son."

Arsenal also made substitutions, and actually replaced two people in a row, and the striker Li Zihan, who made a contribution to Arsenal in the first half, was replaced, and the substitute was Sanogo, a young center forward who also joined Arsenal this season. Arsene Wenger's substitution appears to be a reinforcement for another final in a few days' time, as well as giving the youngsters more opportunities, after all, Arsenal still have two options in this position, Olivier Giroud and Bendtner. ”

'Arsenal's second substitution came in midfield, with Arsenal's midfielder Aaron Ramsey coming off, also out of the desire to retain quality. The substitute is Arsenal vice-captain Arteta, which should be regarded as strengthening the defense, because the defender in this game is Wilshere, and Arsenal's midfield interception ability must be more average in defense, so now that they are ahead, Arsenal can also play more steadily. “

Because of the addition of Ozil, Wilshere's position is more awkward, and most of the middle position in the forward midfield is occupied by the core of the German midfield, after all, this is what Ozil is best at and can give full play to his advantages. Therefore, in the middle position, Wilshere can only play the central midfield position, or occasionally make a cameo as a wing-back. Unless Ozil is injured or rotated, he has a chance to go to the midfield, but in this game, Ozil is indeed the veteran Rosicky who is suspended as the midfielder, and Wilshere is still playing in the midfield.

Although there is no fixed position, Wilshere did not have any contradictions, as an excellent young player produced by the Arsenal academy, he is still very loyal to Arsenal and Wenger, he once gave an interview to the media about the problem that Ozil may not have a fixed position after he comes, he can play multiple positions, full-back, forward, winger, central midfielder, if the team and Wenger need, he can even play at the back

This midfielder is not an interceptionist and defensive midfielder, but a playmaker like Andrea Pirlo, or an attacking midfielder like Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard

After the game restarted, Arsenal was still not arrogant, because of the lead, they had no reason to rush at all, anyway, they attacked when they had the opportunity, and controlled the ball at their feet when they didn't have the opportunity.

Five minutes into the second half, Hull City manager Bruce Sr. made another substitution.

No. 8 Heldstone, who had been watching Li Zihan, was replaced, and No. 21 striker Sean Lang came on.

Hull City made another adjustment, because Li Zihan has been off, so there is no longer a Zài for Herdstone's defensive task, plus the England midfielder is not very good-tempered in the game, and there is a yellow card, so the old Bruce replaced him. Coming up was striker Sean Lang, and it seems that Hull City are looking to step up their attack. And Shaun Lang is a guerrilla forward who is fast, good at pressing up front, as well as aggressive running and counter-attacking. After Li Zihan went down, the old Bruce seemed to want to fight Arsenal, and I don't know if such a substitution can bring some changes to Hull City"

Hull City's substitutions seem to have not changed significantly in a short period of time, but Arsenal's substitutions have changed significantly, but this is obviously a little embarrassing.

In the opening ten minutes of the second half, Arsenal still had a lot of chances. Although there is no Ozil, Rosicky and Wilshere are very good. With a hand in passing and assisting, and Cazorla's excellent squad this season, it is impossible for Hull City to completely freeze Arsenal's attack.

In the 48th minute, Wilshere's long ball over the top found the top of Sanogo's head, but the latter headed the ball high under the interference of the opposition centre-back Bruce.

In the fiftieth minute, Arsenal cut various crosses from the edge of the Hull City penalty area. Cazorla cut inside on the wing and made a feint to hit the goalkeeper and then crossed the ball into the middle, Rosicky raised his foot and didn't catch it, but shook it with his foot over the rolling ball - the ball missed!

Wilshere, who was following him, received the ball and made a feint to cut into the penalty area, shook his back to guard him, and then stuffed the ball straight to Sanogo in the box. Sanogo stopped the ball after receiving the ball, then looked at the position of goalkeeper McGregor in the small penalty area, and finally hit the goal.

It's just that at this time, the central defender Davies, who gave Arsenal a series of passes to shake off, has come back to fill in the position, and directly blocked Sanogo's shot with his thigh. Later, Cassola's corner kick was headed high by Medessat, ending the attack once and for all.

It wasn't over yet, two minutes later Sanogo got the ball in front, Cazorla got rid of the opposing full-back and inserted, but the black French center forward did not decisively turn the ball to Cazorla, and hesitated to take the ball himself, but was stuck by the new central defender Bruce. After the breakthrough failed, Sanogo thought of Cazorla, who cut inside the sideline, and immediately passed the ball, but it was too late, and another central defender, Davies, had already come up from behind, and blocked the ball with a big foot before Cazorla.

Cazorla, who didn't catch the ball, jumped up in the process of running - angry!

Cazorla spread his hands and pointed to the position in front of him, and the meaning was obvious - why didn't you pass the ball in front of me earlier?

Sanogo knew it was his problem, and he made an apologetic gesture to Cazorla.

Cazorla shook her head helplessly, then retreated.

"How many chances has Sanogo wasted? The young French centre-forward is wantonly wasting Arsenal's attacking opportunities, and if these opportunities are put on Li No, even if it is Giroud or Bendtner, at least a goal or an assist should be there."

The director of Sky Sports, who was in charge of the broadcast, was also very interesting, sweeping the camera over the Arsenal bench one by one, and stopping on the faces of Lee Zihan, Giroud and Bendtner for a moment.

Li Zihan and Giroud had regretful expressions on their faces, while Bendtner seemed to be glaring at Sanogo angrily.

There is a saying on the pitch: there is retribution for wasting opportunities!

And this sentence was quickly fulfilled in Arsenal.

Substitute striker Sean Lang directly grabbed Sanogo's ball in a possession of the ball at Arsenal, and Sanogo was obviously a little rusty with the cooperation of several people in the front court, especially his lack of confidence in protecting the ball, and he was a little panicked once he was forced by the opponent.

This time, Sean Long managed to steal the ball from Sanogo and then passed it to striker Jelavic. The Croatian striker was also not greedy, and after receiving the ball, he saw Sean Lang's movement, and then smartly passed the ball in front of the opponent.

Sean Lang raced towards the ball, which Sanogo had lost, and he tried to make up for it and try to help his team defend, especially if it didn't reach him.

"Sanogo's possession was cut off by Sean Long, and then Hull City immediately launched a quick counter-attack, it was a Tiger chance"

"Sanogo, are you sure you're not here to go undercover?"

The big man in the center is not fast, at least compared to Sean Long, Sanogo's speed can't keep up, but he is better than his legs.

You must not let the opponent take the ball, otherwise it will be a one-handed counterattack

With this thought in mind, Sanogo shoveled directly diagonally towards Sean Long, who was about to catch the ball, and Sanogo came with a scissor leg

Unnoticed, Sean Long was brought to the ground and the referee blew the whistle before signalling for a foul on Arsenal as Hull won a direct free-kick up front and showed a yellow card to the fouling Sanogo.

Sanogo didn't defend himself, and made an apologetic gesture to his teammates - it was not known that this was the first apology he had made since coming off the bench.

'Sanogo used a foul to block a very dangerous counter-attack from Hull, but he lost the ball, so it was a mistake. How did Sanogo get his foothold in Ligue 1 before? ”

The commentator doesn't want to complain about Sanogo anymore, because it's not interesting, this guy is too cheating on Arsenal.

'I now finally know why Arsene Wenger has given him so few chances,' Hellhouse said sarcastically.

Hull City are also very sorry that this counterattack did not work out, but time and opportunity do not allow them to have regrets, and soon they will continue to play in the game, although Sanogo is very bad for Arsenal, but now it is still Hull City who are behind.
