Chapter 345: Beat the crazy blue moon

"Okay, the first half is over, and I can also introduce you to the starting lineups of both sides, although you already know the starting lineups of both sides after watching the game for 45 minutes."

"On the side of Manchester City playing at home, the goalkeeper is naturally Joe Hart, although Hart's form has fluctuated between the end of last season and the beginning of this season, but for Manchester City, it is still the best choice for the main goalkeeper, Pantilimon is only suitable for being a substitute, as for the third goalkeeper Wright is 35 years old, he doesn't even have the opportunity to come on as a substitute, so unless Manchester City comes to the introduction of a goalkeeper who thinks he is excellent, the main force is still Joe Hart in the year of play."

"At the back, due to the injury of the young talented central defender Nastasic, Pellegrini used the old Argentine central defender Demichelis in this game. In fact, this was Demichelis' third appearance for City, and the first two performances were good. He was naturally partnered by Manchester City's captain, Belgian centre-back Vincent Kompany. At wing-back, Zabaleta and Kolarov started with Richards and Clichy on the bench. ”

At the back, this season's new Brazilian Fernandinho is partnered by Yaya Toure. The arrival of Fernandinho has strengthened City's defence in the middle, allowing Yaya Toure to be freed up and more involved in attack. Judging from the 20 games this season, Yaya Toure also frequently participates in and organizes the frontcourt attack, while Fernandinho is in charge of the defense, and the two partners are very tacit, if the Brazilian inserts an assist, Yaya Toure takes the initiative to stay and defend. ”

"Up front, Manchester City have a three-man system. David Silva, Sergio Aguero and Keylor Navas, although they are three midfielders, but many times David Silva and Keylor Navas are often on the wings and can be regarded as two wingers. The latter's quick break, in particular, has been a sharp knife on the flanks for Manchester City this season. David Silva is more of a passer and playmaker, and he is more of a frontcourt dispatcher and playmaker. Although Aguero looks like a midfielder in the middle from the formation picture, his role is to play a second striker or a nine-and-a-half such a final, hidden behind the center forward Negredo. ”

"The center forward, also the Spaniard Negredo who only joined this summer!"

"On the Arsenal side, the goalkeeper is the No. 1 Polish international Szczesny, the central defender is the German tall Merderssat partner with the Frenchman Koscielny, the tall Merdesart is a good hand in both corner kick attack and defense, and his state is quite stable, a central defender, stability is one of the biggest advantages. Although Koscielny has just joined Arsenal at the beginning of the continuous mistakes to give opponents opportunities, but despite the increase of time, the former Arsenal sinner has now completed self-redemption, and has played relatively well in the recent season, and now he has become the best choice for Wenger when Vermaelen is not in good shape. ”

"At full-back, on the left is Arsenal Academy youngster Gibbs, who was in excellent form last season and this season, squeezing the experienced Spanish international Monreal onto the bench. On the other side is France's 30-year-old Sania, who is also an indispensable member of Arsenal, especially when the youngster Jenkinson has not yet grown up in this position. It's just that there is a stalemate in the contract renewal negotiations between the big man and Arsenal, and there are naturally a lot of rumors about his transfer when the winter transfer period is approaching, and I don't know if Arsenal can keep this big man who is both offensive and defensive. ”

"In midfield, the Frenchman who returned to Arsenal for the second time this summer is French again. Flamini appeared in the starting position, and the midfielder's resume is also quite impressive, when he first joined Arsenal on a free transfer, and then when he went to Milan, he was also the most free transfer, and then he returned to Arsenal from Milan on a free transfer.

"Partnering Flamini in midfield is the young Welshman Ramsey, who has performed well this season, has secured the position of the main midfielder, and his prospects are quite broad."

"In terms of front, Mesut Ozil, who set a record for Arsenal's highest transfer of players, appeared in the starting midfielder position, for this position I think everyone can guess a long time ago, whenever there is an important game, the goldfish eye and no injury, Wenger will naturally not hide him. On the wing, Podolski was on the left and Cazorla was on the right. ”

Up front, Olivier Giroud, the centre-forward, started and Li Zihan was put on the bench. But I didn't hear that Li Zihan had any injuries before the game? Why don't you use Li Zihan and use Giroud? ”

Arsene Wenger certainly didn't rush over and shout at the camera: "It's tactical, you layman.

In fact, Wenger was busy in the dressing room at this time!

With a heavy score of 4-1, Arsenal started their second half of the game.

Neither side made any changes to their line-up for the time being, but after five minutes of play in the second half, Arsenal began to make changes.

"Arsenal started to make substitutions, it should be the five minutes of the second half to warm up Li Zihan, right? However, Li Zihan, Wilshere and Rosicky are all warming up, I wonder who Wenger will replace? It should be Li Zihan, after all, his shooting skills and running ability are quite lacking in the current Arsenal. ”

It's just that at this end, Li Zihan just took off his training shirt and got the No. 12 Arsenal red jersey handed over by the jersey administrator.

In the first five minutes of the second half, Arsenal and Manchester City both played relatively mildly, not as aggressive as in the first half.

Fernandinho, who played a long ball down the middle of the pitch and dominated the clash with Flamini in terms of body and height, with a header that flicked the ball to the feet of David Silva.

David Silva was not on the touchline this time, but picked up the ball close to the left. Suppressed Gibbs' press, then moved the ball wide to the relatively empty right.

Keylor Navas received the ball on the right flank and went straight down to the bottom of the pitch, where Sagna fell to the ground and made a tackle to destroy the ball. However, the ball did not go out of the bottom line but was received by Zabaleta, who followed up with the assist, and the Argentine full-back directly crossed at an angle of 40 degrees.

Negredo in the middle jumped for the top of the pitch, grabbed the ball before Merdessatt, and then flicked his head at goal. Szczesny jumped up, not fully grasping the ball, and could only strike with both fists.

With a pair of fists, the ball was knocked out of the danger zone, and the goal was temporarily safe.

However, on the edge of the box, Sergio Aguero had control of the ball ahead of Koscielny, and the Argentine striker in front of him took a pose.

The French centre-back stretched out his leg to block, but Aguero calmly flicked the ball and flashed a gap in front of Koscielny, and passed the ball behind the opponent.

"Sergio Aguero's pick !!"

David Silva sprinted past Gibbs to the spot, only to see Szczesny abandon the goal.

Don't dare to be careless, in order to grab the time difference, without waiting for the ball to completely fall to the core of the Spanish midfield, he directly raised his foot high and paddled the ball with his toes.

The ball bounced off and flew high towards goal, but Szczesny's outstretched hands couldn't get their way.

It's just that the Polish goalkeeper didn't notice David Silva's raised cry and hit the opponent's spike all at once.

Szczesny, who fell to the ground, didn't feel anything, and he hurriedly looked back to look at the ball, only to find that the ball had gone into the net. At this time, he felt a hot pain in the slightly upper part of his lower abdomen.

The distorted expression was so painful in the close-up of the camera lens, rolling on the ground with his stomach in pain.

David Silva was surrounded by Koscielny and Gibbs before he could celebrate, with the pair believing it was a deliberate lethal foul.

Sergio Aguero and Negredo immediately gathered around, fearing that their teammates would suffer.

The referee immediately blew the whistle and stopped the game, as an experienced referee who has been enforcing the Premier League for more than ten years, Dodd Zhilu said that if he is not strong at this time, he will not be able to keep in such a game where the scene and score are fierce, and the two sides will fight because of some small things.

When there was a clash between the two sides in the middle of the game, referee Dodd rushed to the scene of the incident to clear the situation, and he handed David Silva, Koscielny and the captains of both sides, Medessat and Kompany, to his side. See how this ball is decided? Did Dodd dismiss the goal? Or does the goal work? ”

After more than ten seconds of communication, the referee firmly enforced his own law enforcement standards, and at the end of the day, he could only see Medesart and Koscielny walking away disappointed.

The referee only came to check on Szczesny's injury at this time, and the Arsenal team doctor had already come on after the fourth manager had gotten the referee's approval through a headset.

The team doctor lifted Szczesny's shirt and took a closer look at the Pole's injuries before spraying some ice and painkiller spray.

The close-up of the broadcaster's camera caught the glaring blood streaks just below Szczesny's chest.

The team doctor thought there should be no major problems, but asked Szczesny anyway for his opinion. Szczesny nodded after a little movement, signaling that he had no problem and could continue playing.

But from the close-up of his facial expressions on camera, it can be seen that he is not relaxed now.

"Szczesny must be in pain right now, right? But it should be a hard injury, no major problem, but the body has suffered some sin. ”
