Arsenal are really devastating, they really made everyone's scalp tingle at James Park, and Arsenal used half the game to let everyone know their terrifying attacking ability. With a three-goal lead in ten minutes, Arsenal can walk on the pitch at this time, and there is no suspense in this game for Arsenal at all, and now the Gunners can enjoy a victory, a crazy big win.
It was already a three-goal lead, and at this time no one thought that Newkarls still had a chance, and at this time everyone knew that Arsenal could achieve another crazy big win; Now people are curious about what crazy results Arsenal can achieve in this game, and people are now curious about whether Arsenal, who are on fire, will create a horrific carnage in this game.
With a three-goal lead, Arsenal are hoping for a crazy big win, and now they have a very large lead, and the current Magpies players are demoralized; There's no reason why Arsenal shouldn't go further at this point, and there's no reason why they shouldn't be aiming for an even more insane win.
Arsenal with a three-goal lead continued to maintain enough intensity in attack, and when the Newkars players were unwilling to fight, Arsenal continued to expand their results, and the three-goal lead could no longer satisfy the appetite of Arsenal's players.
In the 24th minute, Arshavin took the ball from the left to the penalty area, and Cesc Fabregas's left-footed shot from a tight angle on the left was blocked by Harper. There was a sigh at St James' Park, and the Magpies fans were almost broken, because they had no idea that Arsenal would continue to strengthen their attack at this time. Look at the situation now. Arsenal are likely to continue to score comfortably here.
Two minutes later. Newcarth's nightmare continues; Cesc Fabregas and Xiao Qing and others attracted most of the defense, so at this time, the Arsenal fullback Sagna, who suddenly inserted an assist, calmly crossed to the goalkeeper from the right side, Sagna's insertion stirred up the Newkars defense, and Van Persie, who was unguarded in front of the goal, easily scored with a header to help Arsenal continue to expand the lead! It's four to zero, it's really a crazy score!
Arsenal are really crazy, the firepower of Arsenal took a four-goal lead in half an hour, at this time even the most optimistic people would not think that Newkarls still has a chance to equalize, and now the only suspense in this game is what kind of huge lead Arsenal can achieve in this game. What fans are expecting now is that Arsenal can continue to maintain enough attacking intensity with a huge lead to claim a crazy victory.
The four-goal lead has made Arsenal's players happy, although they do want to keep the lead on their toes, and no one doesn't like crazy big wins; But Arsenal are not just aiming for a spectacular win, they also have important games such as the league and the Champions League, and the first thing they need at this time is fitness and enough fitness. Therefore, in the case of locking up the win, Arsenal will still maintain a certain intensity of attack, but it is definitely not desperate on the field, just the simple pursuit of goals, because this is more than worth the loss.
Arsenal is very calm to maintain a certain offensive, at this time Arsenal inevitably began to slow down the pace of the game; Now with a four-goal lead, there is no reason why Arsenal should not get the win of this one. With a 4-0 lead, Arsenal ended the first half and returned to the dressing room with the Gunners playing with impunity. Although it is in the away dressing room, Arsenal's players are not so low-key; It's a nice game like this. There is a sense of ease throughout the team right now, and no one would have thought that the team would lose this game in such a situation.
Xiao Qing and Cesc Fabregas were replaced by Arsene Wenger, and the old French man is also very confident in this game, so there is no need for the two cores to play now when the overall situation has been decided, and now Arsenal needs to start accumulating energy for the next Champions League knockout round, and the game with Inter Milan is not so easy.
Xiao Qing sat on the bench, Xiao Qing is very relaxed now, like his teammates, they don't think Arsenal has any crisis at this time, they don't think Arsenal will give Newkarls any chance, now Arsenal only needs to be ready to celebrate the victory.
Arsenal are ready to end this game; But only five minutes into the second half, the famous Premier League villain Joey Barton tackled Diaby in a hurry, Diaby couldn't control his emotions and grabbed the opponent's neck to knock him down, and pushed Barton who stepped forward to hold him accountable, and was directly sent off by the referee!
Although there was some discomfort with this decision, although the Arsenal players were very unhappy with Joey. Barton; But now it can only be like this, fortunately, now Arsenal has a four-goal lead, they don't need to be too nervous at all, even if there is one less person on the field, but Arsenal should still be able to easily win the game.
The turning point of the game was this red card, a huge upheaval that no one expected, and at this time it felt incredible for everyone to feel that something incredible had happened.
In the 56th minute, Magpies fullback Simpson broke through to the penalty area with the ball from the right side, and his right-footed shot from 12 yards out was saved by Szczesny! Then Nolan's long-range shot from outside the area couldn't help Szczesny.
These are all expected by Arsenal, but they don't care too much, because Arsenal is now one less person on the field, and it is normal for the Magpies to have a certain degree of counterattack at this time. Arsenal didn't care about that, so what happened next was amazing for everyone.
In the 64th minute, Nolan's corner found Best, and Best's header missed. A minute later, Walcott connected two players after receiving a pass from Denilson, and his shot from outside the penalty spot was blocked. In the 69th minute, Best was tripped by Koscielny in a scramble in the box, and the referee awarded a penalty, and Barton deceived Szczesny to score the penalty.
Four to one, although Newkars pulled a goal back, Arsenal didn't need to care too much; At this time, the Newcastle players seem to have found a little feeling, and they are starting to see some hope of saving face.
Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny was booked for delaying time after catching the ball out of the net, Barton and Nolan stepped forward to grab the ball, and Nolan also received a yellow card for a pushing and shoving action.
Newcastle stepped up their counter-attack, and they were unwilling to be humiliated by Arsenal at their home turf; So the energy that has erupted from Newcastle now is terrifying, barefoot is not afraid to wear shoes, and Newcastle, who has lost four goals, is now fearless.
In the 73rd minute, Williamson's header from a corner was saved by Szczesny. A minute later, Best received a through ball from Barton behind him and turned to shoot, but the linesman raised the flag for offside. Newcastle began to fight back frantically, and they pressed all the way to save some face at home.
In the 75th minute, substitute Ranger cut to the bottom line on the left and his volley was saved by Szczesny, Enrique took the ball and passed it again, and Best scored with his right foot from six yards out. Two to four!
Arsenal's players felt something was wrong at this time, the momentum of Newcastle's counterattack was too fierce now, and because Arsenal had one less man on the field, they were now feeling even more pressure. But at this time, the Newcastle players have regained their confidence, and they are now bursting out with strong fighting power; Although they scored two goals in a row, they were not satisfied, and they wanted to do better.
In the 82nd minute, Williamson was knocked to the ground by Rosicky and Koscielny in the air when he was heading in the box, and the referee awarded a penalty again, Wenger angrily questioned on the sidelines, and the dissatisfaction of the Arsenal players at this time also reached the limit, because this damn penalty would make the pressure all on Arsenal's side.
Barton hit a penalty to rewrite the score to 3-4, although Arsenal scored four goals in half an hour in the first half, but in the second half of the game Arsenal also conceded three goals in a row, although Arsenal is now leading by one goal, but they have one less person on the field, and more importantly, the momentum of Newcastle is fully up, and it is difficult for Arsenal to limit the crazy Newkars at this time.
The Gunners are feeling the pressure and they need to avoid being a laughing stock now, they have conceded three goals and they can't afford to make mistakes; It's just that Arsenal may be under some pressure now, because they can't make mistakes anymore, and because Xiao Qing and Fabregas, the two cores are now off the field, Arsenal is taking it lightly, so the players are likely to be at a loss on the field, because they can't stand up at all.
Arsenal now have a one-goal lead, but they will need to withstand the onslaught of the outburst of Newkars' players; It's not an easy thing to do because the Arsenal players are a bit flustered right now, and also because Arsenal are now one less man on the pitch. In the face of the imposing Newcastles, Arsenal really don't have much initiative now.
Arsenal seem to be able to hold on to a win because they are passive, but they are still able to keep a clean sheet and the game is running out.
But in the Zuihou moment of the game, Rosicky knocked down Barton, Barton's free kick was cleared out of bounds by a header after driving a free kick into the box, and Ivory Coast midfielder Diot blasted a shijie wave with his left foot from 25 yards out!
It's a shijie wave that plays at a super level, but it's enough for Newkarls, because it's four to four! (To be continued......)
