The next day, the news that Sun Xiang signed a contract with Puma as an endorsement player was sent through Puma's official website, but the problem with the new series of sneakers was only passed.

As soon as the news came out, the most angry person was Zhang Biao and them. They would never have thought that Sun Xiang, who was bent on putting him to death, instead of being frustrated, took a big order for himself, what is this called.

The Football Association followed suit with a statement that seemed intent on maligning Sun's approach.

However, the fans will not pay attention to these, and the signing of contracts with endorsers will hinder the Football Association, and they will talk about it all day long. So the matter is over.

On 11 January 2019, in the 21st round of the Premier League, Arsenal hosted Stoke City in the first game of the rest day after the Christmas schedule, and both players were able to put their best foot forward in the face of a week of ample rest.

In the end, Arsenal swept the opponent 3-0 at home, and Stoke City had a chance to score a goal, but Petr Cech was in excellent form and defused the danger in front of goal many times. Speaking after the game, Stoke City boss Lambert said: "Cech has been a great symbol since he appeared in the Premier League, he's a phenomenal player, he's outstanding. "To be able to praise the Scottish coach like this, it can be seen that Cech is a god-like existence in this game.

In the first game, Manchester City were drawn away to Everton, and then lost the top spot in the league. They were overtaken by Chelsea, who were close behind, and Arsenal were once again in second place.

In this game, Sun Xiang was also elected the best player of the game with a score and an assist, which was also the fourth consecutive game in which Sun Xiang won this award.

"It's rare for a player to win the Man of the Match five times in a row, it's so hard! Neither will Sun because their schedule will not allow it! ”

It was the second day, and when the British media were promoting Sun Xiang's four best and proud results, some different voices came out.

Five in a row? No way?

People looked at the schedule, and it turned out that Arsenal's opponent in the next round was Manchester City, no wonder someone would give a different answer.

But then again, in the first meeting between the two sides this season, Sun Xiang was also the best player of the game, and it was his two passes and one shot that helped the team reverse the score in the end.

As the away team this time, fans are still looking forward to Sun Xiang's performance.

...............................

"The best spell of the game in five games in a row? I don't care about that, it's just stats, I still want to focus on the pitch and that's what a player does. Facing reporters' questions before the game, Sun Xiang replied.

Before the start of this game, it was reported that Arsenal would bring in Borussia Dortmund striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to strengthen Arsenal's squad. However, in the face of the rush of Real Madrid and other giants, I don't know if Arsenal Ten will be able to get the Gabonese striker as desired.

And there is another point, if Aubameyang comes, the starting position on the striker will change, and whether it is Sun Xiang or Lacazette or Aubameyang will have the absolute strength to play as a center forward. So if it really happens, how Wenger will send troops is also the focus of fans' attention.

However, in this game, their lineup is still unchanged.

In the front line, Sun Xiang continued to be the starting striker, Lacazette retreated, and the midfield five lined up, Bellerin, Xhaka, Wilshere, Cazorla, and Ozil. Defenders Monreal, Mustafi and Koscielny.

As soon as the game started, Arsenal stepped forward to get into the game, and they pressed Manchester City efficiently up front.

'It feels like Man City haven't come out of the defeat yet, you look at their passing, it's a bit dangerous. Martin Taylor said.

In the 18th minute of the game, Arsenal almost scored.

City made a mistake in passing at the back. Zinchenko's forward pass on the final kick was a little less powerful and was cut off by Bellerin, who scrambled up from behind Gundogan.

Otamendi flew forward to block and Bellerin picked the ball forward and then leaped up to beat Otamendi.

He then went all the way down the flank, broke through to near the bottom line, and crossed with his feet, aiming for Sun Xiang in the penalty area.

Next to Sun Xiang is Manchester City's trust in Laporte, the defender who has just spent a lot of money from Bilbao, and the Frenchman in the primary Premier League stage is full of curiosity about Sun Xiang.

His teammates had warned him before the game to watch out for this man, but so far it hasn't been of much use.

"Bellerin crosses! Sun is the only one in the forbidden area! Fish Leap Header!! The top is crooked~ It's a pity ....."

Bellerin's cross was already thrown by Sun Xiang when he rushed towards the trajectory of the ball. Martin Taylor seems to be ready to celebrate.

The ball ultimately failed to find the door of Moraes' handle.

Sun Xiang got up and signaled to the referee that it was a corner, indicating that he had not touched the ball.

After a brief exchange with the linesman, the referee opted for a goal kick. This caused displeasure among the Arsenal players.

"It was a corner! It was the ball that Laporte touched! "Through slow-motion replay, the clearest images appeared in front of the fans in front of the TV, as well as in front of the two commentators at the scene.

In fact, both Laporte and Sun Xiang were free to reach the ball, but one with his head and the other with his feet. It is clear that Laporte with his feet is more advantageous.

"Maybe it's because the positions of the two people overlap, so the linesman is confused, if that's the case, it's really not easy to observe."

"In this way, Laporte is very attentive to Sun's defense, you must know that Sun's ability to grab points is very outstanding, and if there is no good reaction, it is easy to be split by half a body. There's a lot you can do in this half of the body in football. ”

Defensively successful Laporte and Moraes high-fived in celebration, the goal was too crucial.

"The defense was fantastic, but it also shows that they are lacking in defense. If you don't believe me, look at the reason for their defense this time, they haven't done very well so far, and Guardiola won't be happy. After calming down, Alan Smith analyzed.

'They conceded the ball too quickly and Pep Guardiola's tactic was to keep the ball and that the whole team didn't do well. He continued: 'De Bruyne struggled in midfield with Arsenal's midfield five and struggled to handle the ball effectively and calmly, which prevented City's attack. ”

"That's right, this can be compared to Sun's performance not long ago. When he got caught in the crowd, he was also unable to create chances for the team, as Arsene Wenger said after the game, it was as if they were ten people playing. The role of the midfielder is important. Martin Taylor added from the sidelines.

The loss of control in midfield has put Manchester City in a passive situation, and no matter how good the defense is, it will not be able to maintain efficient concentration all the time.

In the 22nd minute of the game, Arsenal's attack was rewarded, this time it was the tacit cooperation between Sun Xiang and Monreal, and he stopped a delicate one-two in front of the Oman City penalty area.
