169 Raise the banner of attack
"Monreal to Sun! He's down! Kyle Walker made a low-level mistake! He buried Manchester City! Martin Taylor said.
'Sun played as a central striker in the box and he did a great job!'
---------
"Sun, come on!" Lacazette stuffed the ball into Sun Xiang's arms.
"I didn't participate in this ball, it should have belonged to you."
Sun Xiang smiled and didn't shirk him. Hold the ball alone and place it on the penalty spot.
"Sun is going to take this goal, can he score it?" Martin Taylor looked forward to it, "Sun has taken two penalties so far and scored both times, can he continue? ”
Sun Xiang heard the referee's whistle and started to hit the goal.
Unlike usual, he pushed straight into the middle this time!
Moraes pounced on the left.
"Oh~ Moraes missed the ball, if only he stood still! Now Arsenal have scored, in the twenty-third minute of the game! ”
Sun Xiang hugged his teammates one by one after scoring a goal, and it was his second goal in two games.
He is still chasing Kane in the scorers' charts, with England's top scorer taking his tally to twenty.
'They took the lead, at Manchester City's home turf!'
Arsenal fans from afar sang "Children of the Sun in London" in the stands, which was a tribute and encouragement to Sun Xiang.
………………………………
The game restarted with Manchester City kicking off.
After conceding the goal, Guardiola quickly had a small meeting with De Bruyne and others to redeploy his tactics. They didn't expect it to be Arsenal who would score first.
But the good thing is that they are all professional players and they don't panic when they are down by one goal.
The philosophy of football is to emphasize possession, which also makes his team even more reluctant to make mistakes.
In the 46th minute, City finally made an effective attack.
Gundogan split the ball down the middle, De Bruyne evaded Xhaka's defence and played the ball to Aguero, who played for the ball on the left, who won the ball and dribbled in the direction of the box.
"Go up and guard him alone, don't be in a hurry!" Cech commanded from behind.
Monreal and Cazorla looked at each other, and then both blocked his tracks.
Sergio Aguero swayed from side to side and De Bruyne slashed in from behind to take away one of Arsenal's defenders.
"Leave it to me here, you go and guard the back!" Cazorla shouted at Monreala. When two people are together, they are sometimes more likely to make mistakes.
Monreal retreated when he heard this, and at that moment, Aguero, who had just entered the penalty area, suddenly got his feet. His left-footed shot went past Cazorla in front of him and headed straight for the back corner.
Cech couldn't stop it even if he stretched it to the extreme, if only his finger had grown another centimeter.
In the end, the ball grazed the post and flew into the stands, and the Arsenal generals breathed a sigh of relief amid a sigh of relief from the Manchester City fans.
Not only do they have to guard against teamwork, but they are also no less likely to be able to fight alone.
“sun! Tell them to start defending and counterattacking! Arsene Wenger told Sun Xiang up front that he was ready to attack.
Manchester City will definitely attack, and the tactics of the back three certainly have their weaknesses, and Wenger fears that if Manchester City do attack, their defence will be unbearable.
Focusing on defense, Lacazette and Sun Xiang were kept in the front court to coordinate with each other.
"Manchester City are going to attack! Pep Guardiola couldn't sit still. ”
Kevin De Bruyne won the ball in the middle of midfield and dribbled forward as he watched the situation.
"Stop him!"
Xhaka stepped forward to intercept and Koscielny assisted behind him.
"Don't let him pass." Mustafi said he was with Sergio Aguero.
De Bruyne passes the ball and he intends to pass it to Gundogan on the side.
Koscielny was very focused, and he made the first tackle to clear the ball. However, it did not go far from the siege.
De Bruyne's second shot was quick to react, as he poked the ball out before Xhaka could take control, and this time the ball was successfully picked up by Silva.
Silva turned in the box, and Monreal behind him leaned against him with his body, but he stumbled and didn't break the ball. Instead, Silva was lucky enough to get the ball past Monreal and straight at goal himself.
Seizing the opportunity, Silva pushed away Monreal on the side to shoot, and the ball bounced high on the body of Bellerin, who was returning to the defense.
The ball is not out of the box yet!
Aguero, who had been pestered by Mustafi, struggled to get rid of it, and then volleyed directly to the side of the ball, but it seemed that he was distracted and could not kick it on target.
"The ball is still in the penalty area! Arsenal have to get rid of the danger quickly, they are in a bit of a mess. Martin Taylor said worriedly.
The kicked ball was more like a pass, towards the goal.
In front of goal, Wilshere and Cazorla were in the middle of the pitch, both keeping their eyes on the ball.
Manchester City's Fernandinho intervened in real time and volleyed in while they weren't noticing, which startled Wilshere.
They didn't expect that there would suddenly be one more person here.
However, due to the hasty swing of the legs, he was not able to fully exert his strength, and the fill position of the ball also loved the underside of the ball, and the football was once again high above the goal.
'Arsene Wenger's side are under pressure at this time, Manchester City's attack is playing well and Arsenal's defence needs to be better rather than more chaotic. Otherwise, there are still 40 minutes left in the game, and they will lose the goal or even the game. ”
After regaining momentum, Arsenal also used counter-attacks to play an effective attack.
City's pass in midfield was intercepted by Mesut Ozil, who then fed Cazorla, who made some mistakes but was able to catch up in time.
After that, Cazorla crossed the ball to the middle, and Sun Xiang in the middle took the ball and faced Laporte's defense and did not choose the goal, but passed the ball out again.
Lacazette was in an unguarded area on the left side, and took Sun Xiang's pass to adjust and hit the goal directly.
Perhaps because the chances were too simple, the Frenchman, who wanted to make the most of his strength, kicked the ball into the stands.
The Arsenal fans held their heads in frustration, it was their best chance after the goal, and the 2-0 score was enough to reassure them.
Lacazette, who missed a great opportunity, also stood there and looked in the direction of the ball in frustration, and he himself could not tolerate such a thing.
'It's a shame it's a great chance, even better than those two at Manchester City!' Martin Taylor also lamented.
"He's like he's thinking about how he just kicked the ball, and the ball really wasn't at his level."
"Hey man, don't worry, the grass is uneven here. I just kicked it right here, too! Don't be frustrated. Sun Xiang came over and comforted.
Lacazette smiled and patted Sun Xiang in reply, telling him that he was fine, but there was indeed a low element in his smile.
Faced with such an opportunity, a world-class goalscorer must not be squandered easily, this is the requirement he gives himself.
Seeing this, Sun Xiang stopped squeaking, patted him comfortingly, and left.
