Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said: "That's the starting XI for Birmingham, so I'm going to give you a look at the visiting Arsenal starting XI today. ”

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray looked at the information in his hand and said slowly: "Arsène Wenger today is a four-three-three formation, this is a change, I don't know ......"

Speaking of this, Andy Gray suddenly fell silent, as if his neck was stuck, and he couldn't speak, and the fans in front of the TV were shocked, wondering what happened?

Andy Gray was intimidated by the information in front of him, and even he wondered if he had taken the wrong information, and he made sure that he had not taken the wrong information, so he took a deep breath and continued: "Today, the Arsenal team has made a big change, and it seems that they are going to be surprised. ”

The fans in front of the TV were all aroused by Andy Gray's curiosity, and they were all thinking about what kind of change would make Andy Gray have such a big reaction?

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray immediately said: "Arsenal today were in a four-three-three formation, and the goalkeeper was the Spaniard Almunia. ”

'The goalkeeper position for Arsenal has been an unstable factor this season, with Fabianski, Almunia and Szczesny taking turns in the goalkeeping position, and Arsène Wenger seems to have failed to find a suitable goalkeeper so far.

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said: "It is said that Arsenal are now looking for the right goalkeeper all over the world, and I wonder who will come to Arsenal this summer. ”

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray continued: "In a back four, Arsenal made some changes today. The four are Eboue, Vermaelen, Koscielny and Klich. ”

"Veteran Gallas wasn't in the starting line-up today and he was rested for this game. He was replaced by French teenager Koscielny. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

'Then there's the three-man midfield, which is Alexander Song, Cesc Fabregas and Rosicky. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

"The position of the three is like this, Alexander Song is behind and his main responsibility today is to defend. Cesc Fabregas and Rosicky then lined up on the left and right in front of Alexander Song, who were supposed to be in charge of Arsenal's attacking play. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

"Rosicky returned from injury today, and as soon as he came back, he was in the starting line-up, so you can see that Arsène Wenger thinks very highly of him." Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

"Next up for Arsenal today are Theo Walcott, Arshavin and Robin van Persie!" Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

The fans in front of the TV immediately exclaimed, they all thought that they had heard it wrong, did they hallucinate in their ears, would Dongfang Chen not start today? It's fake, right?

The Birmingham fans in front of the TV were also very shocked, they really couldn't understand why Dongfang Chen couldn't start? Could it be that the Arsenal team has become so strong? Can a super striker like Dongfang Chen only play as a substitute?

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said: "Yes, you heard it right, Dongfang Chen didn't start today. To be honest, when I first saw this starting list, I was also very shocked, Dongfang Chen did not appear in the starting list, which was simply shocking. ”

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray suddenly added: "But when you think about it, it makes sense. Although Dongfang Chen was not injured, he had just finished participating in the Asian Cup, and in just 21 days, Dongfang Chen had played the entire Asian Cup, and he would definitely be very tired, so it was normal for Dongfang Chen to enter the rotation list now. ”

Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray added: "It's not like Zhang Ningpeng, a Chinese player in the Birmingham team, didn't appear in the starting lineup, and their consumption is huge. However, I think Dongfang Chen still has time to appear in the game today. ”

At this time, the substitute players on both sides walked out, and Dongfang Chen walked out first and walked to the bench. At this time, the fans of the Birmingham team on the scene knew that Dongfang Chen did not appear in the list of statements today, which surprised them.

They didn't dare to imagine that Dongfang Chen actually appeared on the substitute list today, they were very surprised, really surprised.

Dongfang Chen didn't think there was anything wrong, a team needed normal rotation. Although the crossing has greatly improved his physical quality, he is not a machine person, he is also tired, and he also needs to rest.

Before coming to Birmingham, Dongfang Chen knew that he was going to sit on the bench today. For this reason, the head coach of the Birmingham team, Arsène Wenger, also explained to him in person that Arsène Wenger was afraid that Dongfang Chen would complain and be dissatisfied.

Dongfang Chen sat directly on the bench, and at this time, the starters of both sides walked out of the player tunnel.

Fans on both sides immediately erupted in a scorching cheer, cheering for their teams.

At this time, the Birmingham fans were firm in their position, and they went out of their way to cheer for their team and shout loudly for their team.

'Okay players from both sides are out and the game is about to start.' Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said immediately.

Soon, the referee's whistle blew, and the first half of the game officially began.

At the start of the game, it was not the mighty Arsenal team that attacked, but the Birmingham City team playing at home. Birmingham City took advantage of the home advantage to launch a ferocious attack on the Arsenal team, which surprised the Arsenal players.

In the third minute of the first half, Birmingham almost broke through the Arsenal goal with their first attack, but it scared the Arsenal players.

The two South Korean players played a beautiful combination in the middle, and the two continued to pass the ball between the two to tear a hole, Li Qinglong went directly from the ribs of the Arsenal team penalty area into the Arsenal team's penalty area, and Ji Chengyong's through ball came just right in time.

After Li Qinglong received the ball, he suddenly made a horizontal buckle, flashed a bit of space, and then he directly volleyed, and the football flew rapidly towards the goal of the Arsenal team, grazing the far post and flying out of the bottom line.

The Birmingham fans immediately erupted in a burst of regretful exclamations, and many of them even closed their eyes in despair, lamenting God's injustice.

It was a dangerous goal, and Arsenal almost fell behind as soon as they came on the pitch.

Arsène Wenger frowned on the sidelines, and it seems that there is a reason why Birmingham have been doing well lately.

After the game was re-spent, the Birmingham team did not stop there, they played against the Arsenal team, which made the Birmingham fans at the scene excited, they have been frantically cheering for the Birmingham team, and suddenly the home atmosphere came out.

The Birmingham City fans have created a very good atmosphere at home and put a lot of pressure on the Arsenal players.

Dongfang Chen, who was sitting on the bench, listened to the cheers of all the Birmingham fans on the scene, and felt the good home atmosphere, Dongfang Chen was embarrassed, he played in such an atmosphere last year, but today he became the enemy of the Birmingham team, which is really impermanent.

In the tenth minute of the first half, the home team Birmingham team's attack came again, this time the Birmingham team's attack was very concise, the back field Ji Chengyong directly kicked a long pass, and Chamacher jumped up directly at the front point, shook his head, and threw the football to his forward partner Carlos Vela.

Carlos Bale took advantage of the situation to carry the football into the Arsenal penalty area, and then he directly volleyed the football towards the Arsenal goal, the ball was fast, but the goalkeeper of the Arsenal team, Almunia was very good, and he saved the football from the bottom line with a direct side pounce.

"Wow! The players of the Birmingham team are very active today, and they have a very strong desire to survive as soon as they come up, and it seems that the Birmingham team is very eager to get a win today. Arsenal need to be careful today. Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

"Also, the former players of the Arsenal team are very active today, Chamacher and Carlos Vela are holding back their energy today to give the Arsenal team a good look!" Sky Sports commentator Martin Taylor said.

"Corner! Birmingham won the first corner kick since the start of the game, Li Qinglong ran to the corner area, and this ball will be served by him! Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray said.

The Arsenal players have returned to their own half to defend and they are still serious about this goal. The Birmingham fans at the scene were shouting excitedly and cheering for the players of the Birmingham team.

At this time, the referee's whistle sounded, and Li Qinglong in the corner kick area directly ran quickly, and then hit the football with a fierce kick, and the football flew up rapidly and flew into the Arsenal team's penalty area.

The ball continued to spin and flew straight towards the back of the Arsenal penalty area.

"Rear point!" Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray suddenly exclaimed loudly, and the Arsenal fans at the scene also became nervous.

At the back post, Birmingham City striker Chamacher jumped high and he squeezed Arsenal centre-back Koscielny behind him.

Danger, almost all Arsenal people are aware of the danger and they are nervous.

Chamacher jumped up high, met the ball directly and smashed the ball into the Arsenal goal, and with a bang, the ball flew like lightning towards the Arsenal goal.

In front of the goal, Arsenal goalkeeper Almunia saw Chamacher's header at the back post, he was immediately nervous, immediately kicked the ground with both legs, made a side pounce, pounced, and intercepted Chamacher's header.

However, he was still a little slower, and the ball flew quickly in front of his palm before slamming into the goal behind him.

Suddenly, the St Andrews stadium exploded, and all the Birmingham fans cheered excitedly.
