Chapter 153: You Sing and I'll Appear

After Guardiola looked at the score on the field, he couldn't help but cover his mouth, and this shot from the equation was completely unexpected.

Wowed the whole stadium.

This flower foot shot is different from the common leg shot, and the action is very hidden.

Many centre-backs have developed an instinctive reaction to the common shots, and they may be able to guess whether to hit the right or the left as soon as the opponent is about to lift their feet.

They instinctively block shots.

However, when it comes to a flower foot shot, the defender will have a short time to judge, because very few people will play with the flower foot in the penalty area!

The conditioned reflexes they have accumulated with a large number of games become ineffective at this point.

So, just a second or two later, the ball was already past them and rolled into the goal.

The score is 0:1!

And to make this action, it naturally requires a big heart and solid foundation.

The equation was also in the electric light, and suddenly there was a flash of inspiration, and then I tried it, but I didn't expect that I really managed to break through Manchester City's goal.

So, he was very excited now and happily rushed to the sidelines to celebrate.

'Man City were down by one goal in the 27th minute, this is their home stadium, Guardiola has to figure it out!'

Teammates came over to celebrate,

"It's another flower arrangement, and the people of Manchester City haven't reacted, captain, did you do it on purpose?!!"

"The captain is getting fancy! Spend more than me! ”

The whole Arsenal team came to the sidelines to celebrate, and it felt like their team-mates were more excited than the goalscorers.

Equation smiled and shook hands with his teammates and hugged him.

When the home fans in the stands saw this scene, they felt very uncomfortable.

"I said a long time ago, buy Arsenal's number 10 early! You're still afraid that others are parallel imports! ”

"It's not too late, hurry up and let the oil guy buy it, where can such a skilled player find another one!"

"That's all we need to do in the Champions League, my God, if we bought him in the winter window, how could we be eliminated by Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League?"

"Don't worry, we're going to win this game, let's get a ball first! Our players are not mediocre at all. ”

Both sides played very openly in this match and both got some good chances.

In such a fierce confrontational environment, De Bruyne also fought hard.

Because he is not very efficient with the ball, he sometimes looks a little lazy on the court.

This is actually the result of De Bruyne's style of play. His advantage is that he has a strong ability to manage the ball on the pitch, pointing where to pass.

If De Bruyne is forced to advance with the ball, then it is easy to be intercepted by the opposing player.

Many times, Manchester City have conceded a goal in midfield, and that starts when Kevin De Bruyne is dispossessed.

Now De Bruyne can feel Arsenal's constraints on him, so he doesn't dare to expose his shortcomings, try to stick to the ball, observe the passing route before receiving the ball, and then suddenly hit the ball behind Arsenal.

Seeing this scene, Sun Jihai explained: "De Bruyne was very active in running today, he didn't often advance with the ball himself, but used a lot of running to find the cooperation of his teammates. His choice was very clever, not to avoid Arsenal's targeting of him, lest the opponent snatch the ball at his feet and let his team be beaten on a quick counter-attack. ”

Zhan Jun also thought so, and said: "Yes, De Bruyne can use this method to develop his strengths and avoid weaknesses, but it will consume a lot of his physical energy, and he doesn't know how long he can last."

De Bruyne is now thinking that he must win the game, and he doesn't care how long his fitness lasts.

If you don't try to equalize the score now, it's useless to save your physical strength.

For a time, Manchester City put huge attacking pressure on Arsenal's half.

Equation and Haaland and Saka retreated, forcing the Manchester City man and continuing to ease the defensive pressure on his teammates.

The effect of the full defensive came quickly, after all, the fitness of the whole Arsenal team has not yet declined, and their overall pressure quickly forced Manchester City's attacking transmission back.

Haaland, Equation and Saka were like an impenetrable net, which instantly shrouded Manchester City's half.

City's defenders lost possession of the ball and quickly passed it back to goalkeeper Ederson.

Haaland rushed over with all his strength and did not give the goalkeeper time to think.

The equation was also left behind, keeping an eye on Edson's passing lane.

Seeing this snatching posture, Edeson instantly felt the pressure in his heart, and he quickly kicked out and sent a pass to the front court, but he didn't dare to make a mistake in the penalty area.

However, this Manchester City team does not have an absolute high point in the front, and Arsenal's backfield can easily intercept Ederson's long ball.

When Guardiola saw it, he immediately became a little angry and shouted to Ederson, he pointed to his feet, meaning that he couldn't just drive the ball forward like this,

Manchester City need to channel attack on the ground!

This is Pep Guardiola's style of leadership, even the goalkeeper must have the ability to pass the ball at his feet.

It is precisely because of such high demands that Pep Guardiola's Manchester City can have a strong competitiveness in the Premier League.

This is different from Arsenal's concept of passing and cutting, Manchester City pays attention to ball possession, using possession to consume the opponent's physical energy, using the width of the field to pull the opponent's defensive formation, until the opponent does not keep up with the rolling of the football, or the physical energy is exhausted, then Manchester City can end the suspense of the game

Under Pep Guardiola's loud command, the Man at Manchester City was no longer distracted by the opponent's scrambles, either with one kick or a one-two.

The ball was quickly transmitted to the front of the Arsenal penalty area,

Arsenal's formation was flattened at this point.

Manager Arsene Wenger sensed something was wrong and sent a loud reminder to the pitch.

Riyad Mahrez got a pass on the left flank, pretended to cut inside with his upper body, but in fact took the ball at his feet and forced it to continue sprinting down the left flank.

Tierney was carried all the way to the left in order to defend.

Just when he thought Mahrez was going to make a low cross, Mahrez suddenly smashed the ball at his feet, but he sent an inverted triangle pass behind him.

Tierney thought to himself and looked back to see that Manchester City's Silva had already received the ball in the middle.

Silva was skilful with the ball at his feet, and he quickly turned sideways to look like he was going to take the ball and cut inside, but in fact he used his right foot to stealthily use the outside of his instep to make a pass.

Silva found an extremely tight pass in the gap on the edge of the box.

This pass found Aguero in the box,

Although Aguero does not have a height advantage, his chassis is stable enough to carry Saliba's entanglement and does not fall to the ground.

After seeing the pass coming, Aguero didn't reach out to catch it, but let the ball roll under his and Saliba's crotch!

Saliba was stunned for a moment, completely unaware that Aguero did not catch the ball.

He took a quick look behind him and saw Aguero's missed ball, allowing Foden, who was inserted at the back post, to receive the football.

Arsenal's defense was instantly beaten by Manchester City's offensive conduction!

"Danger! Aguero's leaky ball is just too deadly!! ”

"Foden received the ball at the back post and no one was on his feet!!"

In the surprise of the audience, Foden did not choose to hit the goal directly, after all, goalkeeper Kaino was not out of position and blocked the angle of the shot in time.

Foden opted to sweep the ball through the middle,

At the same time, Aguero got rid of the turn in the middle and grabbed in front of everyone, finishing a push against the football from ten yards in front of goal!

The score is 1:1!!

Manchester City equalize!!

In the 42nd minute of the game, Sergio Aguero scored a goal after he scrambled a penalty in the box. City's attack was so fluid that it barely allowed Arsenal to react! ”

"Their offensive coordination is not bad at all compared to the flower-inserted shot before the equation!!"

Zhan Jun watched the goal replay and couldn't help but praise.

City's sometimes ineffective possession may seem lethargic, but they have no shortage of imaginative players, and their sudden attacks can surprise everyone.

'It was Arsenal's midfield who didn't provide protection at the back and we could see that in the last few minutes, it was almost Manchester City who pressed Arsenal to attack. If the second half is not adjusted, then Arsenal are in danger! ”

Sun Jihai took the game seriously.

Arsene Wenger spotted this on the sidelines, and at half-time he consulted with Mikel Arteta before making changes to his line-up.

The equation came back from the front, and Ronaldo, who had no sound in the first half, came to the position of the shadow striker.

This is to allow Fang Cheng to come back and stabilize the midfield, his foot skills can take out the ball, and cooperate with his teammates in the midfield, which can provide an effective barrier for the back.

As for why Ronaldo, who has been playing in midfield, is a little out of shape, as observed by Fang Cheng, Ronaldo has been targeted by Manchester City, and it has something to do with his own play.

So let Ronaldo go to the front, and the pressure on him will be slightly less severe.

At the start of the second half, Arsenal visibly held steady in midfield.

When City's attack comes up again, Equation will work with Thomas and Foss to form a stubborn defence in the middle.

The most important thing is that their midfield defence is not only strong, but also has the skill to get rid of the ball with their feet.

This midfield combination that can grab and lead has caused a strong suppressive force on Manchester City in an instant.

'Arsene Wenger's second-half adjustments worked! From the start to now, Manchester City have not even had a chance to shoot on goal. It was difficult for them to get to the edge of the box again because Arsenal had set up an effective barrier in midfield. ”

Zhan Jun couldn't help but sigh, "It seems that the retracement of the equation has achieved a great effect, which is the strength of the midfield that we have not seen in the first half." ”

Arsene Wenger was relieved to see the form of the game improve on the sidelines.

The formula is very comprehensive, one person is competent for multiple positions, and if he takes the top salary in the team, Wenger will not feel pain.

However, Arteta next to him didn't seem to feel very relaxed, he was thinking, in case the equation is not able to play, then how should Arsenal play, after all, no one can guarantee that the equation can play full time in a season.

Manchester City saw that they couldn't score a second goal for a long time, and they pressed out in the whole formation, which was desperate to win the game.

Arsenal were back in the back of the pack for the time being, with City picking up two corners around their box.

Fortunately, Arsenal's defence did not make a mistake and blocked all the corners that Manchester City took out.

In the 63rd minute of the game, David Silva got a through ball from a teammate in front, and after a few steps with the ball, he suddenly took a cold shot from distance.

However, the Arsenal goalkeeper was focused, he took his position and slotted his fists back with a long-range shot.

The football fell to Thomas's feet, and the situation on the field changed in an instant!

Offense and defense swap!!

Arsenal launched a quick attack, but City's retreat was also fast, so the attacking team did not have an absolute chance to score.

After Saka struggled with the ball on the right flank, he opted to get the ball back.

Ben White came up to get Saka's return pass and was contemplating whether to return the ball in the face of Cancelo's defence.

Suddenly, the equation ran from behind Cancelo with the intention of catching the ball.

Ben White didn't hesitate and immediately passed the football to the equation.

Equation quickly turned with the ball and instantly distributed the ball to Haaland not far away before Ellanders pounced.

Haaland ran over and knocked his heel to Martinelli in the back,

Martinelli doesn't stop playing because the opportunity in front of him is fleeting!

"Martinelli crosses!"

"Arsenal kicked the ball up front and quickly passed the ball to the middle of the box!!"

"Is anyone grabbing a point?!!

The football flew out of an arc, bypassing Walker and Dias, and no one touched the football, seeing that it was about to fly to the back point of the penalty area!

Suddenly, the figure of Asen No. 10 appeared in front of the football again!!

The equation is successful in grabbing points in the middle!

After he passed the ball to Haaland, he rushed straight into the box at full speed!

Facing the flying football, the equation stretched out his right foot, and used the inside instep to cushion it.

Football bang!

The direction was changed in an instant, and the ball flew towards the top right corner of the goal!

The rush of the equation is too sudden!!

Ederson subconsciously reached out to block the shot, and then heard a loud cheer from the fans who came to the away stadium.

The score is 1:2!

Arsenal scored another goal!!

Equation happily ran towards the corner again, and he played happily in this game, scoring twice!!

Teammates came in droves, happily gathering together to celebrate.

Seeing that the opponent was celebrating the goal again, Edson felt depressed and kicked the football out with one kick.

Guardiola reluctantly turned around, went to the bench and sat down, saying that he wanted to limit the opponent's core, but the opponent scored twice.

However, seeing that there were still 20 minutes left in the game, Guardiola wiped his face again, cheered up again, and began to discuss with the assistant coach next to him how to make substitutions.

Happy boy Sterling saw Arsenal so happy, and his mood instantly became unbeautiful.

He didn't even get up to shoot in the second half, why was the score overtaken again?

Suddenly, Sterling's eyes suddenly became determined, and he decided to play more seriously from now on.

This bad game must be won!
