Chapter 341: Leading Again

Hesitating to join Li Zihan this season, Giroud's position is even more awkward, generally unless it is a tactical need or a rotation, Giroud is basically a regular on the bench. Giroud is a tactical need in this game, and of course Wenger, a few of the main central defenders of the Blue Moon, knows that there are some problems with Lescott's defense, so he has long known that Demichelis should start in this game. And Giroud started to use his height to impact the opponent's central defender, and then said that when the time was ripe in the second half, he went to Li Zihan to pick the fruit.

Giroud's style of play is also called "doing dirty work", but Giroud does not have the slightest resistance, everything obeys Wenger's arrangement, and he is also conscientious on the pitch to complete his tasks.

Therefore, in Arsenal, Li Zihan and Giroud can coexist, and sometimes when it is necessary to give it a go, Wenger will not be as indecisive as his famous French coach Deschamps, and decisively send Giroud and Li Zihan's double center forward tactics, the combination of one fast and one high is more painful for the opponent's defensive line.

Li Zihan is also a very unique person on the court, even if he sticks the ball on the court, it is all to open up space for his teammates, and he will eventually pass the ball out. And Li Zihan's assists are no longer few, so Giroud is also happy to cooperate with Li Zihan and play a lay-up.

As a big tall man, Giroud also belongs to the atypical kind of tall man. His header is strong, but he continues to be quite delicate at his feet, unlike many of the main centre-forwards. The difficulty is that he is also relatively fast.

Olivier Giroud headed straight at Demichelis but it was denied by Joe Hart.

City were immediately incisive, with Joe Hart flicking the ball wide and Kolarov dribbling out of the danger zone before settling the ball past David Silva in a tackle. David Silva broke through with the ball, glanced down the middle, didn't pass the ball, and went straight to the high cross.

Negredo jumps up and heads it down and Aguero gets his hands on it nearby. Aguero's technique is excellent and his body is strong. With his back to Koscielny, he didn't let him break his ball.

He then passed the ball to Keylor Navas, who turned away from Koscielny's interference. Keylor Navas made a wall and immediately flicked the ball back to Sergio Aguero, who slotted home a little behind the penalty spot in the box.

Szczesny understood the importance of the game and the threat of the opposition, so he was quite focused from the first second.

Immediately turn sideways to make a save.

"Szczesny!! The excellent Polish international goalkeeper Sergio Aguero denied his shot and used his body to block the opponent's shot off the line. However, City also got a corner to see how good it was. However, it seems that both sides of this ball are a bit different from their usual self, playing a lot of high balls, and although Arsenal has passed a lot, but at the end of the day, they handed over a high ball to Giroud to deal with, is this a targeted tactic? ”

David Silva's corner went straight into the box for the centre-back and centre-forward, but the returning striker Olivier Giroud got the ball in the head.

Yaya Toure from outside the box latched on to Giroud's header and then slashed open his thigh to shoot wide. The experienced Flamini had long expected this and immediately put his foot over.

Yaya Toure's powerful long-range shot hit Flamini's thigh and the bouncing ball was controlled by Mesut Ozil before being handed over to Cazorla, a young man on the edge of the box.

Cazorla didn't go straight to the ball, but turned around and let the ball go. Fernandinho behind him was stunned for a moment, thinking that Cazorla was about to play the ball after receiving the ball, and subconsciously wanted to pull the opponent's jersey.

As a small man, Cazorla obviously does not disgrace the little men on the field who can be great. What small people are best at is flexibility, such as the origin of the name Messi's little flea.

Leaned over, dodged the opponent's pull, and then bypassed him to catch the ball behind him.

"Beautiful, Cazorla!! A beautiful turn to concede the ball left the Brazilian midfielder helpless. ”

Cazorla, who received the ball, immediately flicked it up behind Fernandinho and got the ball behind the Brazilian midfielder, and a beautiful turn left the defensive midfielder who has been so good this season unable to do anything.

Going to the wing, Cazorla activated his pace.

Zabaleta had a problem in the defensive area, inserting an assist and going too deep into the depths of the depths to come back for a while. The tiny Cazorla ran to this "highway" and killed the opponent's half.

Although Zabaleta tried hard to catch up, he was still not far from Cazorla, but the fast Navas was still in front of full-back Zabaleta.

Demichelis came up to intercept and was going to use his own defense to help his returning teammates create some time.

However, Cazorla understood the importance of speed on the counter-attack, so he had no intention of fighting him, and a outside instep pluck handed the ball to Giroud, who smiled at Demichelis without the ball.

Demichelis was subconsciously stunned, not understanding what the other party's smile meant.

Before he could react, Cazorla suddenly brushed his side at high speed. Demichelis wanted to reach out for the general first reaction in this situation is to reach out and pull people, but Demichelis did not catch the nimble little man Cazorla.

Giroud had a good heart, and the moment he received Cazorla's pass, he didn't care about the opponent's reaction and follow-up actions, and directly made a wall and quickly sent the ball behind Demichelis.

And Cazorla received the ball right behind Demichelis, strode without waiting for the opponent to turn around and chase back, and directly broke through with the ball.

Cazorla's long drive went straight into the no-man's land, and in an instant he was at the edge of the penalty area.

Joe Hart didn't make a move, and the experienced Kompany was already waiting in the position. As soon as Cazorla arrived, Kompany stood in front of Joe Hart to block the opponent's route, and then tried to find a way to poke the ball out of the opponent's flaws.

Cazorla pulled the ball and made a feint to break to the left, but Kompany was not fooled. Then with another buckle, Kompany couldn't help it and went straight to his feet.

Seeing that the opponent had been fooled, Cazorla flicked the ball and went in the opposite direction to take the outside line, leaving Kompany's controllable area and continuing to the sideline to the baseline.

"This ball, continue to go down to Cazorla!! In fact, he could have dialed in to the inside line and then faced the goalkeeper Joe Hart! ”

Cazorla, who went down to the baseline, had already seen Joe Hart blocking the near corner, and did not hesitate to take the ball.

A high ball that flies parallel to the other side from the near corner of the goal.

Joe Hart thought it was a high ball hanging into the far corner of the goal, and jumped up bravely, stretching out his hands to pluck the ball out of the air, but he obviously misjudged and couldn't reach the ball with his outstretched hands.

"Cazorla!! It wasn't a shot, Joe Hart made a mistake in judgment!! Post-point !! Podolsky !!! ”

On the other side, German winger Podolski was already in place, came to the far corner of the goal, met the high ball, jumped up, and made a little head.

The ball fell straight down and into an unguarded shot!

“GOOOOOAL!!! Podolsky !! Goal!! Arsenal equalised less than three minutes after City's goal and the two sides were back on the same page. ”

"Sure enough, it's a crazy home and away madness, less than eight minutes into the game, the two teams contributed two goals, is this really going for a big score?"

'Manchester City should be more focused, they can't play Arsenal as Swansea or Norwich or Tottenham as a team. If you don't pay attention to Manchester City, it is easy to be overturned by the opponent, after all, the current Arsenal is still the first team in the league, or the crazy away madman, and the sixteen points of seven away games are not blown out!! ”

The excited Podolsky waved his arms vigorously, showing great excitement.

Chilean engineer Manuel Pellegrini made a gesture on the sidelines, signaling his disciples to play like this and not change their strategy.

Although Manuel Pellegrini has not been in Manchester City for a long time, in just two months, the new star of the giant team has already made the mark of an engineer, so no matter how big the name is on the pitch, Manchester City's players have patiently played according to the tactics formulated by Pellegrini.

After Manchester City kicked the ball, they did not take a safe way to control the ball and let the tempo slow down, but launched a ferocious attack directly towards the Arsenal backfield.

"Yaya Toure controls the ball, after Fernandinho joined Manchester City, Yaya Toure is completely liberated, frequently involved in organizing attacks, and the work of defending the back is now basically covered by Fernandinho, of course, on the offensive side, Fernandinho also has a violent long-range shooting ability, which should not be underestimated."

'The ball was given to David Silva and he broke through with the ball. Gibbs stepped up and didn't get the ball. David Silvaneche, how to deal with it? Shot!! Direct Shot!! ”

"Szczesny!! Finish beautifully and save David Silva's shot. But the crisis wasn't over yet, and the ball didn't get far out. ”

Negredo took the ball and he looked inside the small box. Knock on the door!! Medsat!! Sure enough, it's a tall man, how long do you have to be with a pair of long legs? It's more than enough to be a leg model. With a stretch of his long legs, Negredo's shot was blocked. ”

"Sergio Aguero takes the ball, Flamini grabs, the Manchester City players come to pick it up, and the Arsenal players are not to be outdone!! There was a scuffle at the edge of the penalty area and Arsenal should be decisive because the area is too dangerous. ”

"Shot!! Yaya Toure snatched the ball at the feet of Ramsey and then tried again with a long-range shot of his own!! was pounced on by Szczesny and waited for no hold and got rid of it!! Dangerous!! Aguero !! GOOOOOOAL！！！！ ”

"Sergio Aguero's stoppage!! The ball went in!!! Arsenal suffered the bitter fruit, and did not clear the siege first in the front of their penalty area!! was caught by Manchester City, and the world's leading goalscorer Sergio Aguero, who had been quiet for ten minutes, finally broke the silence, with a keen sense of smell in front of the goal, and a strong grasp of the opportunity to shoot! ”

"Manchester City have extended the score again, now it's 2-0, it's only been 10 minutes, my God, is it still to come?"
