On the big screen at the scene, the score of 2:3 was particularly conspicuous.

On the sidelines, Arteta rubbed his cheek with one palm and stared at starting goalkeeper Leno, his thoughts drifting uncontrollably.

In this game, he never thought that Arsenal would lose, but Arsenal actually fell behind 0:3 in the first half, and the opponent scored three goals with three shots on target; And Arsenal had 15 shots on target and 0 goals!

Who believes this?!

Of course, the score is behind and it is true that the striker is not strong, but there is no goalkeeper's responsibility.

Leno has a big problem!

It's not just the positioning and the save that are problematic, but the people seem to have problems as well.

Well, two more to watch?

The next game is Arsenal at home to Chelsea, the next game is away to Manchester City, if Arsenal still concedes goals......

That's not going to take Leno's start (Note: Leno started Arsenal's first three games in the 2021 season, in which Arsenal 0-2 Brentford, 0-2 Chelsea, 0-5 Manchester City, three consecutive defeats, and nine goals conceded. In the fourth round of the Premier League, Leno was replaced by Ramsdale in the starting line-up, after which Arsenal began a winning streak).

Arteta glanced at Ramsdale sitting on the bench, although the Englishman also conceded 58 goals at Sheffield United last season, but that is because Sheffield United is a relatively weak team, Ramsdale's goalkeeping ability is still no problem.

Moreover, Arteta also heard a small news before the game, this game Arsenal is very popular, there are many people betting on Arsenal to win, and the bookmaker has to be forced to reduce the odds of Arsenal winning, but it still can't stop people's enthusiasm for betting on Arsenal.

Think about it, Brentford, as a promoted horse, will face the giant Arsenal in the first round, plus Arsenal has never lost to a promoted horse in the first round before, in this situation, Arsenal must be the favorite to bet, the kind that is so hot that it explodes.

If Arsenal win, the bookmaker will lose a lot of money.

Arteta squinted his eyes and stared at goalkeeper Leno, secretly making up his mind that if Arsenal conceded another goal in this game, he would immediately replace Leno!!

Arteta has always been skeptical of Leno, otherwise he would not have spent £28 million on Ramsdale.

Mikel Arteta has always known that bookmakers are inextricably linked to players from various teams, mainly in goalkeeper positions, and often make money by manipulating matches, even in Europe's top five leagues.

Why do super giants upset in a hot game?

Is it true that the players don't work hard?

Not really!

It's the goalkeeper position that has gone wrong!

Just as Liverpool's German goalkeeper Karius did in the 2018 Champions League final.

At that time, Liverpool really had a chance to win against Real Madrid, at least it was a close game, but Karius's two super super huge mistakes ruined everything.

Since that Champions League final, Karius has disappeared from Liverpool and has not been reused wherever he has been on loan.

Because all the teams have reached a consensus, this goalkeeper is not a problem with ability, but a problem with people, and they dare not use it!

The bizarre three goals conceded in this game had Arteta on his toes.

Well, look at it again......

Arteta glared at Leno fiercely, moved his lips and shouted at the pitch, reminding his players to pay attention to their defense in the coming time and not to give Brentford another chance to steal chickens, lest his own striker score one in front and lose two at the back.

If that's the case,

So who can stand it?

Leno was so uncomfortable by Arteta's sharp eyes that he didn't dare to look at him, only silently watching the field and not looking at Arteta at all.

on the pitch.

Play resumed, and Arsenal continued to lay siege to Brentford.

There was a lot of noise in front of Brentford's goal, and there was a lot of danger.

It was clear to everyone that although the game was played in exactly the same way as in the first half, Arsenal still played with high pressing, pushing the defence forward to the centre circle, but Brentford had no chance to counter-attack at all.

Limited by the huge disparity in quality, even if they occasionally snatch the ball back, they will be quickly snatched back by the Arsenal players.

The Brentford players played hard, very badly!

Head coach Frank walked anxiously around the sidelines, unable to do anything.

Because the difference in strength between the two sides is too big, even if the chicken-stealing tactics are used, there are only one or two chances in the whole game, and it is already a surprise to be able to play a three-goal lead in the first half.

Normally, it can play Arsenal at most a 1:0 or 2:0.

Now, it depends on whether the team can withstand Arsenal's indiscriminate bombardment and hold the win, even if it is a draw, it is still earned.

Thinking of this, Frank felt a thrill in his heart, and hurriedly called two defenders to warm up.

Soon, defender No. 29 Sorensen came on to replace No. 19 striker Mbumo, leaving only Ivan Toney as a striker up front.

"Wow, Brentford manager Frank has changed his formation, removed a striker, sent in Danish defender Sorensen, and changed the formation from 352 to 451."

"Lose one counter-attacking point, add one defender."

"It looks like Frank is trying to hold on to the score."

"I have to say, it's a very pragmatic choice!"

'But I still think he was a little slower to adjust and should have made a substitution at the start of the second half.'

"Gary, what do you think?"

Ferdinand looked at Neville.

Neville nodded, "That's right! With the scales tilting in Arsenal's favour, Brentford are struggling to organise an effective counter-attack, and the game is officially in half-time drills. ”

"No, no, Gary, I mean, do you think Zheng can score again? Brentford's new defender Sorensen is 1.89m tall! The average height of the four defenders is currently 193.3cm! ”

"The real Norwegian forest!"

"Zheng's height of 1.95 meters has almost no advantage."

Neville patted his forehead, "Oh my God, where did Brentford buy so many tall defenders, it's terrifying!" ”

"As far as physical confrontation is concerned, Zheng is definitely not an advantage with one against four, he has to play smarter."

"That's right, tall defenders are really strong when defending high balls, but tall defenders are usually clumsy at their feet, and Zheng is very flexible, which is his advantage, Arsenal only need to play more ground balls and less high balls, this game should have hope of equalizing!"

"Is it just an equaliser? I think Arsenal have a chance to win. Ferdinand said his prediction.

Neville waved his hand repeatedly, "It's hard, it's very hard, Leo you know, this game ......"

At this point, Neville paused.

this game. Arsenal's outside betting is extremely popular, it is said that in the north London area alone, there are as many as tens of thousands of people who bet on Arsenal's opening to win, these people are at least 100 pounds, and even tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of pounds, involving hundreds of millions of dollars.

Once Arsenal wins, the bookies lose money!

In fact, to put it bluntly, most of the Premier League celebrities have private jobs with bookmakers, although they can't buy betting (British law says: people in the football industry are not allowed to buy football-related betting), but they can still make money from bookmakers.

For example, Owen, Akari, Owen has nothing to do with the bookmaker, he is a person, according to the inside information provided by the bookmaker on Twitter, predicting several games with high concern, such as the Champions League (basically hitting the score accurately), causing a sensation, and then waiting until there are more people who follow him, and suddenly in a certain game, the reverse prediction.

Then there will be a large number of ignorant bettors who follow suit.

So, the money came.

Both Ferdinand and Neville know these insiders. Before the game, the two also said on Twitter: Arsenal must win!

As for whether this statement is true or false, it is up to everyone.

Just as before the start of each season of the Champions League, everyone said in unison that "Manchester City will win the championship", but everyone knows in their hearts that the Champions League winner will not be Manchester City every season.

There is only one possibility for Manchester City to win the title, and when they are no longer the favourites, they can win the Champions League.

As in the period of Real Madrid's three consecutive championships (2016-2018), Real Madrid ranked third to fifth in the odds to win the championship every year.

As for the favourites for those three years? Barcelona in 2016 and Manchester City in 2017 and 2018 – two teams that failed to even reach the quarter-finals in their favourites season.

Of course, these insider stories are not enough for outsiders.

Neville and Rio Ferdinand wisely stopped the conversation and turned their gaze to the pitch.

In this game alone, it will be very difficult for Arsenal to win, very big.

Because someone is going to stop Arsenal from winning.

on the field.

The game went to 52 minutes into the second half.

Zheng Yaxin is still continuing the live deduction.

With the addition of a defender, he has less room to move around and hasn't received the ball for a minute.

And as a result of the live performance, he didn't have much chance for the next five minutes.

Teammates scrambled in midfield and football was passed around the perimeter, just not to Brentford's box.

He has nothing to do!

In this case, it is not enough to just wait patiently for the opportunity, something must be done.

Taking advantage of the moment of returning to receive the ball, Zheng Yaxin whispered to the five midfielders including Xhaka and Pepe: Since you can't pass into the penalty area and the high-altitude ball has no chance, you can shoot from a distance if you have the opportunity.

The five midfielders were stunned when they heard this, first glanced at the manager Arteta on the sidelines, and then looked at Zheng Yaxin suspiciously.

Are you teaching us to do things?

Brother, although you scored two goals,

But it's the manager's job to arrange the tactics.

You've crossed the line!!

That's what all five of Arsenal's midfielders thought and did, and they continued to follow Arteta's previous tactics and attack in a step-by-step manner.

did not listen to Zheng Yaxin's command.

So the ball continued to toggle around the perimeter.

As soon as he reached the penalty area, he was destroyed by Brentford defenders.

The high-altitude ball was hoisted in, and Zheng Yaxin couldn't get it at all.

Brentford sent two central defenders to guard closely, as long as there is an incoming ball, Zheng Yaxin will inevitably have two extra hands on his shoulders, and then he feels that his body sinks and he can't jump anymore.

Two big men of more than 1.9 meters weigh nearly 250 kilograms, and it is impossible for Zheng Yaxin to jump together with their weight.

And since the referee has already awarded a penalty before, it is much more cautious to give another penalty.

As long as it is not a particularly obvious foul, the referee will ignore it.

Thereupon. The next five minutes were spent in extreme dredom.

In the blink of an eye, it was the 60th minute of the second half.

The scene was as Neville expected, Arsenal thundered, did not rain, and had the advantage of the field, but could not score the third goal for a long time.

Zheng Yaxin anxiously deduced the live situation.

Soon, the eyes lit up.

[In the 61st minute, Arsenal won a free kick on the left side of the field, 35 meters from the goal. 】

[Your next choice is...]

[A, step forward and ask Xhaka for the right to take this free kick; B, ambushed in the middle of the penalty area, ready to grab points; C, ambushed on the left side of the penalty area, ready to grab points; D, ambushed on the right side of the penalty area, ready to grab points. 】

“what？”

"Where's the live GIF?"

Zheng Yaxin was surprised for a moment, and then relieved.

The set-piece was there, and there was no real GIF until the penalty taker was decided.

"Pick A!"

[You chose to step forward and ask Xhaka for the right to take the penalty.] 】

[Xhaka rejects you.] 】

[Xhaka stands behind the ball.] 】

[Your next choice is...]

[A, ambushed in the middle of the penalty area, ready to grab points; B, ambushed on the left side of the penalty area, ready to grab points; C, ambushed on the right side of the penalty area, ready to grab points. 】

“A！”

It was the first time for Zheng Yaxin to make a choice without the guidance of a real-life animated picture, so he chose an option casually.

Anyway, no matter what you choose this time, there is a high probability that you won't be able to touch the ball.

With Xhaka's footwork, there is a 99 out of 10 chance that this free-kick will go off.

[You chose to ambush in the middle of the penalty area.] 】

[Xhaka runs, swings his legs, and kicks hard at the bottom of the football.] 】

[The football whistling out of the bottom line and flying into the stands.] 】

[Shoot high!] 】

[The high is outrageous! 】

[Brentford goal kick. 】

[This attack ends.] 】

[Whether a pause is required.] 】

"Pause!"

Zheng Yaxin stopped his deduction and looked at the field.

The Arsenal midfielder is still going back and forth.

But Brentford's midfield and backfield are full of nine people, all of them big men, all of them are people and legs at a glance, and they can't pass in at all.

Then. The ball is passed to right midfielder Pepe.

With a sinking of his shoulders and a shake of his left and right feet, he was about to eat Brentford's left-back Thierry Henry raw.

Henry, of course, would not get used to him.

Lifting your foot is a sweeping leg that knocks Pepe to the ground.

Arsenal win a free-kick in front.

35 meters from the goal.

Zheng Yaxin ran over at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.

Pick up a soccer ball.

Showing that he wants to take the ball.

Xhaka, the team's free-kick taker, walked over and just opened his mouth to get the ball over.

I saw Zheng Yaxin glaring at him viciously.

His gaze was as sharp as a sword, piercing him into the heart.

Xhaka's heart was agitated, and he realized that he was likely to cause something unpleasant when he said the phrase "give me the ball" at this time.

Thinking of the first day of playing in the training match, Zheng Yaxin had a history of knocking Leno out with an uppercut, his lips squirmed, and he muttered and walked away.

"Punish you, what are you doing so fiercely."

Zheng Yaxin ignored him, lowered his head, and quickly deduced.

You get a free kick. 】

[Do you choose to use the "10th Angle Elevator Ball"?] 】

"Use!"

[You choose to use the "10th corner elevator ball", and the probability of scoring a goal is 97%. 】

……

Sky Sports Live Room.

'Arsenal were given a set-piece a little further up front, about 35 metres from goal.

"Wow!"

"Zheng Lai takes this free kick!"

"Gary, did you see it, Zheng Gang's eyes were very aggressive, and Zaka muttered and walked away, very unconvinced." Neville said with a smile.

Ferdinand couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha... Zheng should not be targeting Xhaka, his eyes are very determined, and his desire to win is very strong, but he doesn't know how his footwork is. ”

"Okay, let's take a look at this ball first!"

Zheng put the ball away, took five steps back, stood there like a compass, took a few deep breaths, and ran ...... Wow, this action is very similar to Ronaldo's free-throw posture. ”

"The ball is in!"

"Oh my God!"

"It was too powerful."

"Cristiano Ronaldo elevator ball."

"Speed, power, angle. It's all perfect! ”

"In the 61st minute, Arsenal equalized!"

“3:3！”

"Zheng scored a hat-trick!!"

"Wow, wow, wow... It's incredible. ”

"Shocking reversal!"

"The young gun king, born out of nowhere!!"
