350 Old people and newcomers in the rivers and lakes
Arsene Wenger stood on the sidelines with his arms folded around his chest, and his deep face did not mean that he was at peace.
As Arsenal's squad was reinforced, he became more optimistic about the team, and the lessons learned from last season's Champions League defeat made him want Arsenal to show surprise effect in the knockout rounds of the Champions League.
Both players were in the groove in the opening stages, and when Arsenal took the initiative to defend solidly, Bayern Munich could not play a very dangerous attack.
When the 15 minutes of the game passed, Vieira walked behind Qin Xiong after successfully cooperating with Qin Xiong to block Ballack's defense, and gently pushed Qin Xiong's back, Qin Xiong turned his head to look at the captain, only to see Vieira, who was not angry and arrogant, said to him: "Up! ”
Qin Xiong nodded.
Everyone knows that Arsenal's attack on the left side is very popular.
Pire is more creative and dangerous than Ljungberg, and with Thierry Henry's attacking style of left-hand leaning particularly glaring, it's understandable that Arsenal are unique on the left.
Bayern Munich took Arsenal's attacking restrictions on the left very seriously, and that was evident in the opening 15 minutes.
In the 17th minute of the game, Qin Xiong no longer did passing organization work in the midfield, and he suddenly dribbled to break through.
He came to the front court and suddenly went to the right side, and Frings blocked Qin Xiong.
Although Frings is more experienced and mature than Hargreaves, Qin Xiong is keenly aware of Frins' poor state on the court, at least Hargreaves has a ruthlessness and is very confident, and Frings is a bit similar to Arsenal's Nishioka, and is slightly uncalm when handling the ball.
Right in the middle!
Arsenal's attack in this game was to abandon the left side first. Focus on the right flank!
In front of Frings. Qin Xiong performed a rhythmic pause in the dribble. When Frings grabbed up, Qin Xiong performed a Marseille maneuver coherently, and actually passed Frings easily!
Even Qin Xiong couldn't imagine this result.
He just wanted to test Frings, but he didn't expect to get a miracle on the first try!
After getting past Frijns, Qin Xiong continued to dribble the ball to the right wing.
When Lizarazu was retracted, Qin Xiong crossed the ball to the left.
Hargreaves didn't expect Pire's lateral run from the left flank to the midfield area, and he did his best to follow Pire, but still gave Pire a chance to kick the ball.
Pire doesn't stop the ball and passes it back. Seeing that it was in the direction of Qin Xiong, Lizarazu waited for Qin Xiong to stop the ball and then stepped down to steal, but he didn't expect Qin Xiong to leak the ball!
Lizarazu turned his head to look, and it was Ljungberg who came into view!
The Swedish flying wing took a step towards the ball, Lizarazu moved over to defend, Ljungberg went straight behind Lizarazu, and the Bayern Munich generals were horrified to see Qin Xiong cut into the penalty area near the bottom line to control Ljungberg's through ball.
After Qin Xiong controlled the ball and adjusted, he knocked back the pass in the middle of the penalty area without waiting for Kovac to get close.
The ball sped between Kovac's legs, and even Kovac was taken aback, and he immediately turned his head to look. See Henry catch the ball before Lucio and volley!
The Olympic Stadium in Munich is silent!
Thierry Henry's shot goes straight into the corner!
Karn didn't react!
"Arsenal have scored! It was Arsenal who scored first! Mercury and a wonderful and picturesque attacking combination appeared at the Olympic Stadium in Munich! Frings, who has been under criticism from the outside world this season, easily lost to Qin Xiong, and Magath will definitely look up to the sky and sigh: bad luck! Demichelis is injured and unable to feature in this game. Frings, the time bomb, has exploded again! The cooperation between Pire, Qin Xiong, and Ljungberg is becoming more and more tacit, and the assist king and goalscorer king in the Champions League group stage are another cooperation between the two kings!
Qin Xiong assisted Henry to score, this is a combination made in heaven! ”
When Henry put his arms around Qin Xiong and the two of them with a wild smile on the sidelines of the field, this scene has already become a classic of Arsenal this season!
Arsene Wenger was smiling on the sidelines, but he was not only more confident but also more ambitious.
European Champions Cup!
This season's Arsenal definitely have the quality to win the final throne!
Because most of their players as a whole are at their peak and stronger than last season!
After Qin Xiong celebrated with his teammates, he looked at Bayern Munich's left side on the way back to half-time, with a thoughtful look on his face.
If it was an unexpected success after a tentative for Frijns, then in the attack that scored the goal, Qin Xiong also found a situation that he had not expected before the game, and this situation should be more exploitable.
Bayern Munich launched a counterattack immediately after the restart, if there is any team in European football that is exceptionally strong and representative with team spirit attributes, it is definitely Bayern Munich!
In the 20th minute, Ballack made no further attempt to gain a one-on-one advantage in Vieira's defensive zone.
The reason why Vieira let Qin Xiong "go up" is not only the pre-game tactical arrangement, but also the captain's strong self-confidence.
Simply one-on-one against Ballack, Vieira did not dare to say that he crushed Ballack, but at least he definitely had the confidence, and this confidence did not appear blindly.
Ballack began to focus on the ball on the wings, using Angel Wings Salihamidzic and Ze Roberto on the left to make a wide attack.
While there are no absolute flaws in the Arsenal defence, Bayern Munich's attacking impact cannot pose a clear threat for the time being.
The rhythm is Arsenal's drive.
In the 25th minute of the game, Qin Xiong stepped forward again, but this time he did not break through Frings again, because Flins was already nervous.
When Qin Xiong passed the ball back to Vieira, who was inserted in front of him, Frings's attention suddenly wavered, with Qin Xiong or defending Vieira? He hesitated.
He hesitated, but Qin Xiong was very decisive and ran to the right unswervingly, Vieira passed the ball to Ljungberg, and Ljungberg passed through again, Qin Xiong singled out Lizarazu like a right winger.
In front of Lizarazu, Qin Xiong flicked the ball to the left side to make a cross-cut, Lizarazu closed it to the inside, Qin Xiong quickly moved the ball to the right, and Lizarazu moved to the outside again, but Qin Xiong knocked the ball back to the right side with his left foot for the third time, and then knocked the ball back to the left side with his right foot!
Lizarazu couldn't keep up with Qin Xiong's rhythm after two consecutive changes in his center of gravity!
Qin Xiong still cut the inside line horizontally.
At the moment when he succeeded in breaking through Lizarazu, Qin Xiong had a bottom in his heart.
34-year-old Lizarazu, old!
He's no longer the best full-back in the world!
It's time for him to take a curtain call, the world belongs to young people!
Seniors, it's time to leave your country to me!
Qin Xiong was in excellent form, and after the crosscut, he didn't shoot with his left foot, but with his right foot!
He volleyed with the outside of his right foot and fired an in-spin curling ball around the perimeter!
The ball traversed a wonderful trajectory and raced past Lucio and Kovac.
Kahn moved towards the near post, his desperation already on his face, and he couldn't have made a save anyway.
The dazzling and fast curling shot made the Bayern Munich fans break out in a cold sweat.
The ball eventually grazed the outside of the far post and flew off the line.
However, Qin Xiong showed a hint of confidence when he turned his head and ran towards the backcourt. (To be continued......)
