120 Victory Belongs to Arsenal!
"Mustafi ~hat a goal! Mr. Alain, I think you should book your shirt online now! Martin Taylor jumped up from the broadcast seat excitedly. This ball is too morale-boosting!
After a long time of not being able to attack, it was used to equalize with such a powerful header, and there was nothing better than this.
After the goal, Mustafi excitedly ran to the Arsenal fan stand, venting the burning enthusiasm in his heart.
"I want to see what Guardiola's expression is, he just changed to a central defender and tried to defend and was scored by Arsenal, I guess his mood must be as ugly as eating a toasted apple pie."
The on-site director also seemed to have a heart to give the camera to Manchester City's coach's seat. Between Guardiola tightened his brows, his hands in his pockets, and constantly shook his head.
"Sure enough, the toasted apple pie is hard to eat." Martin Taylor laughed.
In the ensuing time, neither side was able to rewrite the scoreline. In stoppage time, Sergio Aguero headed in from Kevin De Bruyne's pass, which grazed the post and flew off the line. It was also after this attack that the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game.
According to FA rules, a draw within 90 minutes will go straight to a penalty shoot-out, and an abba-style penalty plan will be implemented.
According to the final ball rules, the first penalty was Manchester City, then the next two were Arsenal, then Manchester City, and so on again and again.
The FIFA has developed this "abbaabbaab" style of play to make the game fairer, but if one player drops the chain first, the result will be the same as the traditional "abab".
However, there have been successful cases before.
In the semi-finals of the UEFA Women's Under-17 Women's Championship on May 12 last year, the German women's football team miraculously defeated the Norwegian women's football team after missing all three rounds of penalties. The Norwegian girl missed the fourth goal that sealed the win, and then the Germans, who escaped from the dead, hit two goals in a row, and the Norwegian players missed the ball in the fifth round.
Manchester City were the first to take charge of Belgian midfielder Kevin De Bruyne, who faced Czech goalkeeper Petr Cech, who was 10 years his senior.
Run, swing your legs, hit the door!
Petr Cech misjudged and the ball went into the top left corner!
1:0, Manchester City took the lead in the penalty shootout!
The latter two were all Arsenal players.
Lacazette was the first to stand in front of the ball. He carefully placed the ball on the twelve-yard point, then took a deep breath to adjust his mind. Run and hit the door!
Moraes also misjudged the direction and the ball flew into the net from the opposite direction of his.
1:1 draw!
The second to come out was Olivier Giroud. The French centre-forward made no other moves, initiating the shot, as usual.
This time Moraes opted to save on his left side, but he made a mistake and Giroud's penalty was converted from the right.
1:2, Arsenal overtaken!
"Actually, there are problems with the penalty policy of the new FIFA rules, but maybe it will be enough for the players, and now Arsenal are ahead, and it depends on the players behind Manchester City. Hopefully, City won't fall victim to this new rule. ”
Martin Taylor gave his opinion.
"As you said, Martin, the new rules need to be adapted to by the players and the coaches, which is the same and fair for every team, and everyone needs to face one problem at the same time, which is the priority of the penalty system. Alan Smith also said.
Under the new rules, the order of how to effectively allocate penalty takers is also very particular, for example, those who are under strong pressure are generally placed in the first or fourth or fifth. Free throws are placed in the second and third. But these can only be put in the old rules, and the new rules may not be applicable.
Therefore, how the manager arranges will be a big factor in the outcome of the penalty shoot-out.
Obviously, Manchester City's Pep Guardiola intends to take this by surprise.
Manchester City's second penalty was actually their goalkeeper Moraes, which was puzzling to the fans.
And of course, the broadcaster.
"Hey Alain, have you been to Manchester City training? I don't think Moraes was a penalty starter. Martin Taylor said.
Alan Smith hasn't seen them train, but he agrees with Martin Taylor. In any case, the goalkeeper is the position with the fewest penalty contacts, so no team in general will let the goalkeeper do a lot of penalty training. Of course, in order to deal with the situation of having to be punished, the goalkeeper will also practice somewhat.
But it's really not common to have a goalkeeper in the list of penalty starters.
"Maybe Moraes can really surprise the fans." Alan Smith explained for Pep Guardiola.
Sure enough, the second penalty taker, Moraes, lived up to expectations and kicked a penalty into a goal kick that flew high into the stands.
It happened to be Arsenal's stands, and there was a wave of boos.
Frustrated by missing the penalty, Moraes covered his frustration by putting his shirt over his head.
1:2, Arsenal is still ahead.
Aguero, who was the third to play, the Argentine striker's penalty kicks have always been relatively stable, but this time Cech played really bravely, and the Czech flew to save the inevitable penalty.
In this way, as long as Arsenal score all the penalties in the next two rounds, they will win the game, and Arsenal's prince Wilshere will play next.
Wilshere has been consistent since his return last season and he has been a good playmaker in midfield for the Community Shield. And he himself signed a three-year contract at the beginning of the year, intending to stay at Arsenal for a long time.
With such a red-hot midfielder, there is no reason why Arsene Wenger should not be in the starting line-up.
Of course, the Englishman did not live up to Professor Arsene Wenger's expectations when he deceived Moraes with a penalty that hit the bottom left corner of the net.
"Wilshere scored the ball! Arsenal lead 3-1 and are one step away from their first title of the season. ”
"If I'm not mistaken, the next one to come out will be Sun, so I wonder if he can keep an eye on the pressure and get the team to take the trophy back over there?"
So, in the midst of the thousands of calls from Arsenal fans, Sun Xiang walked to the penalty spot.
It wasn't the first time he'd taken a penalty, but it was the most nervous he'd ever had.
He tried to calm his mood and not let his nervous expression come through.
Take a deep breath and run.
All that could be heard was the boos of the stars Manchester City fans.
Kicking the goal, Sun Xiang shoots the ball into the middle.
As long as Moraes makes a save, the ball will be a must-go.
Moraes pounced to the right and he got down!
After a period of silence, the Arsenal fans were boiling!
This is the first championship of the new season! Champion of the Community Shield!
Petr Cech ran forward and threw Sun Xiang to the ground, and then Lacazette Giroud and other armies followed to celebrate this beautiful moment!
At this moment, it belongs to London, it belongs to Arsenal!
