30 November 2009. The 14th round of the English Premier League was played at the Emirates Stadium; TArsenal, the league's attacking king, hosts Chelsea, the best defensive team, and Chelsea, who have won five in a row, will be away to challenge Arsenal, who lost in the league in the league, and now the two teams are only one point apart in the standings, and whoever can win this game will be able to stand at the top of the table, which is a battle for the top of the table.

Van Persie's season reimbursement came before this game, which is not news, it can only be said that the current Arsenal really needs to rely on Xiao Qing of the striker completely, and the current Arsenal wants to compete for the league title this season. The good news, meanwhile, is that Galla, who collided with team-mate Arshavin in the last league fixture, is available, while the likes of Bendtner, Klich and Diaby are still recovering from injury. For Chelsea, Frank Lampard, who missed the last two games with a thigh muscle strain, is back from injury, while Ballack and Deco, who played in the Champions League, are on the bench, with only Bosingwa the only injured number.

The atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium was hot, and although the rain was coming, it was not affected at all; England's teams are used to rain and they are not new to playing in cold temperatures, because England is such a climate. Especially in London, there is not much psychological turmoil for the players in the rain game at all, or even just the usual almost no effect.

Mentality may not have an impact, but tactically and in form may have a certain impact on Arsenal; Although the Emirates Stadium is a newly built stadium and the drainage here is excellent, there must have been some water on the course during such heavy rains; And this is undoubtedly quite distressing for Jishu-ryu's Arsenal. Because the ball is wet, whether it is the speed of the ball or the trajectory, it will be affected. What's more important is that there is water. Then the ball must be quite slippery, which is undoubtedly a big impact on Arsenal, who require dribbling and passing the ball.

goalkeeper Almunia; From right to left in the back line, Sagna, Galla, Vermaelen, Traore; Defenders Denilson, Alexander Song, midfielders Cesc Fabregas, Nasri and Arshavin are on the two wings, and Xiao Qing is naturally at the front.

As for Chelsea, goalkeeper Petr Cech; Ivanovic, Terry, Carvalho, Ashley Cole at the back; Midfielders Mikel, Essien, Frank Lampard, Joe Cole; Up front, Drogba and Anelka.

Chelsea and Arsenal both look strong, and although Arsenal may have suffered a lot from injuries, their squads are still very good; This is also the confidence of the giant team. As long as it is not a particularly terrifying super large-scale injury invasion, then they can still ensure a certain competitiveness. The current Arsenal may not be as luxurious as Chelsea in terms of squad, but they still have a certain foundation, and they are still very confident of winning the game at home.

In a battle at the top of the table like this, the players are not going to be given more opportunities to adjust in the game, such a game is destined to be a breathless game, and if the players want to help the team do better, then they need to help the team take the lead at the beginning of the game, they need to grasp the initiative of the game early, and maybe only in this way can they have a certain advantage in such an important game. So the two teams didn't need any brewing at all, and the game was already going hot when the whistle blew.

Fourth minute. Sagna's cross from the right was headed back into the middle by Xiao Qing at the back post, and Cesc Fabregas's first shot from near the penalty spot was missed. A second stab was then easily confiscated by Cech. In the sixth minute, Xiao Qing and Essien fell to the ground in a scramble, and both received brief treatment on the court. Arsenal have the upper hand, but Chelsea have a good tempo. In the twelfth minute, Cesc Fabregas broke through the straight stopper, and Xiao Qing made a mistake in stopping the ball and was cleared by Ivanovic in time.

Chelsea are tough, that's how Xiao Qing feels right now. Chelsea's defensive ability has long been known to the world, and their pressure on the defensive end makes Xiao Qing feel very difficult. Needless to say, Xiao Qing, who is the key defensive object, is difficult to get more opportunities in the face of Chelsea's luxurious and solid back line, especially now that he is still standing alone at the forefront, Xiao Qing, who has no partner to help, is likely to fall into the bag at any time.

wiped a handful of water droplets on his face that couldn't tell whether it was sweat or rain, and stomped on the turf a few times; Although in such a rain battle, the players will choose rain boots with long spikes, but Xiao Qing does not have this habit; Although long spikes can make players more resistant to falling on the court, Xiao Qing is used to regular sneakers; What's more, Xiao Qing thinks that it is better to have shorter spikes, because it can make him react faster in the game, and long spikes may affect his agility.

Xiao Qing even stubbornly rejected the proposal of the head coach and his teammates, this was his choice, and he believed that his choice was not wrong. Although he has been affected in the game now, he is still very good, he is not falling behind in attack and he is still able to compete well with the Chelsea players.

Chelsea made their first effort in the thirteenth minute when Joe Cole dribbled past Denilson and Didier Drogba formed a one-on-one but the linesman raised the flag for offside. In the sixteenth minute, Cesc Fabregas and Xiao Qing cooperated in the front field to distribute the ball to the right side, Nasri took the ball to the middle, Xiao Qing fell to the ground during the scramble, and the referee signaled that there was no penalty. In the 19th minute, Frank Lampard played a through ball through Drogba, Anelka cut in an anti-offside position to form a one-on-one knife, Sagna chased back from behind and stretched out his right hand to block Anelka, but the referee still did not award a penalty.

Chelsea started to get in the driver's seat, and their terrifying front court duo was quite lively in the game; Monster Drogba really deserves to be the nemesis who is the best at playing Arsenal, and his perverted physicality is a guarantee that he can completely crush Arsenal's backline, and Arsenal does not seem to have much to do with him for the time being. And Anelka is also quite active in the face of the old master, and it is really difficult for the current Arsenal to have too many restrictions on this pair of terrifying demon gods.

The players of both teams are very concerned about this battle for the top spot, not only because the result of this game will affect the score difference in the standings, but also because it is a microcosm of the two teams competing for the title this season; Win this game. Then they will undoubtedly have a head start in the title race. There are even more psychological advantages.

The players are concerned about winning this game. Fans are also very concerned about the victory of this game. I don't know when, there were fans in the stands throwing debris into the stadium, the referee temporarily interrupted the game and handed the debris to the fourth referee, and Arsenal looked to be about to be unlucky.

In the 22nd minute, Frank Lampard's corner was headed over by Arsenal centre-back Vermaelen, but Drogba picked up Mikel's pass to take the ferocious header of Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia in his hands. In the 24th minute, Nasri's long-range shot from the periphery after breaking through was blocked by Petr Cech, and then Arsenal left-back Traore was booked for a foul on Ivanovic after losing the ball.

Xiao Qing felt a lot of threat, and it was difficult for him to get more opportunities under the iron wall of Chelsea defenders; Xiao Qing is not satisfied that he is just the team's containment point in this game. Even now, there is nothing to show that he can't even talk about containment. Xiao Qing needs to be more aggressive in his style of play, and he needs to start strengthening his individual attack.

In the 26th minute of the game, Arsenal counterattacked quickly, and Arsenal, who invested five players in the midfield, increased their defensive strength, and their offensive talent was further released. Denilson quickly split the ball wide after the midfield broke the ball, and Arshavin scurried down the flank to cross the bottom.

Xiao Qing adjusted his breathing, and at the moment when Arshavin went down, he also raised his speed to the limit; Jumping high in front of the small penalty area, although in front of him was Terry, the core of Chelsea's defense, Xiao Qing didn't care. Although Terry is known as Shijie's first central defender, although Terry is a representative of tough guys on the court, Xiao Qing will choose to go head-to-head with Terry.

Xiao Qing and Terry compete for the top. Compared with Terry, who jumped on the spot, Xiao Qing seemed to be more active; Although Terry has an advantage in height. But Xiao Qing's sprint boost made him look taller than Terry for a moment; smashed the ball with his forehead, but Xiao Qing also suffered a loss, because he collided with Terry at this time. Both fell to the ground at the same time, with Xiao Qing looking to have the upper hand, but his header was affected by John Terry and was somewhat weak for Cech to get on.

Arsenal made persistent efforts, in the 34th minute of the game, Arsenal fullback Sagna raised a high ball on the right side, Xiao Qing headed the ball in the middle, and Nasri stopped the ball at the back point and shot was blocked by Cech with his legs; Arshavin heard the referee's whistle as he was about to shoot and he was awarded a foul on Branislav Ivanovic when he was awarded a header.

Although the successive attacks were frustrated, the atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium was hot; Arsenal is quite active in attack, they are now not only fighting fiercely with Chelsea, but even Arsenal has a slight advantage in the game, so this is also the reason why Arsenal fans are excited, the current Gunners are very good, they have shown the confidence to fight hard with Chelsea, and the current Gunners seem to be sweeping away the bad luck of losing successive defeats on Chelsea.

Xiao Qing's performance undoubtedly made the Gunners fans excited, although Xiao Qing did not have too many wonderful attacks in this game for the time being, but Xiao Qing's role was undoubtedly huge. Xiao Qing's own wonderful performances this season have made him a presence on the pitch that cannot be ignored, although he is now only a lone striker, but Chelsea still put a lot of defensive attention into him; What makes Arsenal fans even more excited is Xiao Qing's characteristics, and it is Xiao Qing who brings Arsenal a different feeling.

In the previous games against Chelsea, Arsenal have always played a passive role, and many times they have been hit one after another by Drogba's terrifying performances, and they can't help the monster at all. But now, Xiao Qing's performance is also very aggressive, he has tried hard again and again in the front court to impact the Chelsea defence, and he is very tough on the pitch. This is also a trait that Arsenal did not have before, and the current Xiao Qing is a new tactical feature of Arsenal, and it is also a new injection of tough blood into Arsenal, which has always been soft!
