074 Escaped

on the pitch.

As the game progresses,

The sky began to drizzle.

The broadcast footage also began to get foggy.

This level of weather change simply does not trigger the suspension mechanism of a Premier League game.

The referee didn't even look up at the sky.

The game continued as normal.

Or Arsenal attacking with the ball.

The front six turned the ball upside down, patiently looking for opportunities.

Odegaard crosses the ball to Niles, Niles passes to Saka, Saka returns to Lokonga, Lokonga crosses diagonally to Pepe in the box, and Pepe misses the ball in front of the post.

The Norwich defender scrambled to break the ball before Aubameyang.

Throw-in!

Arsenal continued to organise the attack.

Soon, the rain began to trickle down, and the turf became particularly slippery and the ball became more difficult to control.

Arsenal players were constantly making passing errors up front.

Either the power is small, or the power is great.

Either the player's foot slips when he kicks the ground and falls directly to the ground.

Either the ball is passed directly to the Norwich player!

Norwich midfielder Rupp got the ball and immediately sent a straight kick forward, tearing apart the Arsenal defence, and striker Dowell rushed all the way to the Arsenal penalty area with the ball and slashed it directly.

The ball scurried away like a cannonball.

There was also a rebound after landing.

Zheng Yaxin made a sideways pounce and rubbed the ball out with his fingertips, and the ball flew out of the big penalty area and rolled towards the sideline.

As a result, another Norwich striker, Szollis, slapped the ball and crossed the ball back into the box with a kick from outside the box. Norwich midfielder Rupp grabbed ahead of Gabriel, who was back from the defense, and shot angrily!

Zheng Yaxin struck with a single punch and hit the ball out of the bottom line.

Ferdinand screamed and jumped on the spot.

"Oh... Oh, God! ”

"Almost!"

"Zheng has made a meritorious service!!"

"Rupp's volley is powerful and heavy."

"Zheng actually saved the ball!"

"Unbelievable, unbelievable! What a god-like reaction! ”

'In the fifth minute, Norwich almost scored.

"This plot is completely unexpected."

"If it weren't for Zheng, a different goalkeeper, Arsenal would have fallen behind now!"

"It seems that Norwich is not a pure gift-giving boy, this game is good."

"Before the game, Arteta said that Arsenal had only one goal in this game, and that was to win, while Norwich coach Farke was very low-key, saying that Norwich should win this game if they lost less,"

"Judging from this counterattack alone, Falke's tactical arrangement is still very thoughtful."

"Gary, did you notice, Norwich players are wearing long spikes, while Arsenal players are wearing short spikes!"

"Falke is very well prepared for this game, even taking the weather into account!"

"So it looks like the game is going to be exciting!"

As Ferdinand said,

Norwich boss Farke was very well prepared!

Arteta, on the other hand, was a bit careless.

The most obvious manifestation of this is that the players are wearing short spike shoes, which are very easy to slip and fall when playing in the rain!

Norwich's counter-attack just now was completed when three Arsenal players fell.

"Mikel!"

"That's not going to work."

"Do you want the players to change their shoes at half-time?"

Assistant coach Ronde saw the situation on the field and reminded worriedly.

"Fortunately, Zheng is wearing long spikes."

"Otherwise, the ball must have been lost!"

Arteta frowned and looked at Zheng Yaxin standing in front of the door, and felt a sense of happiness.

This Zheng is really thoughtful!

Reliable!

With such a player here, why shouldn't Arsenal rise?!

There's nothing to say, if Arsenal can win the championship this year, they will definitely give this guy a salary increase!

On the field, the game continues,

Norwich corner.

The Arsenal fans, who were very noisy at first, will also be quiet.

They know the ball.

They can still tell which side is more threatening.

There is no doubt that the more dangerous side in attack is Norwich!

In this game, what Arsenal showed was far less exaggerated than the odds showed.

It's definitely a close game!

And not a crushing bureau!

Beep!

The whistle blew.

Norwich City takes a corner.

Zheng Yaxin lightly lifted the high-altitude ball, threw the ball with his hand and launched a fast attack directly and passed it to Aubameyang.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang kicked the ground and was ready to catch the ball.

Then he simply threw a dog and ate.

Lying on the ground humming and chirping for a long time.

He almost died with an injury.

All of a sudden, the Arsenal players have a number in their hearts.

So be it for the first half.

Hold steady and kick slowly. Don't get hurt again because of too much movement.

When we change shoes in the second half, let's teach Norwich how to behave.

The idea is wonderful.

But on the pitch you don't just want to do what you want.

The Arsenal players wanted to stop, but the Norwich players did not agree.

When I saw that the Arsenal players were afraid to make big moves because of shoe problems.

The Norwich players, all wearing long spikes, poured out of the nest and began to besiege Arsenal in turn.

The scene has been reversed!

Because of the equipment and the players' tactical execution ability, Norwich began to threaten the Arsenal goal frequently.

For a while, Zheng Yaxin became the busiest person on the field, constantly resisting and saving Arsenal's goal.

Although the Arsenal players set up the bus, their shoes were not strong, and they stood on the field like a stake, except for the foul tactics directly on the body, they could not provide effective defense at all.

The Norwich players, on the other hand, made beautiful technical moves frequently, constantly passing the Arsenal players, passing the ball into the penalty area, and then forming a shot.

As the rain continued, the first half quickly passed 30 minutes.

Except for the first 5 minutes when Arsenal besieged Norwich, the next 25 minutes were dominated by Norwich attacking Arsenal.

If it weren't for Zheng Yaxin's repeated guarantees that the door would not be lost, Arsenal would have fallen behind by several goals now.

Soon, Norwich had another back-to-back chance on goal.

Norwich striker Popira met the edge and sent an inverted triangle back to the top of the box, where Rup met the ball.

A bocce shot aimed at the bottom right corner of the goal!

Between the flashes of lightning, Arsenal centre-back Ben White stretched out his foot to block.

The ball bounced and flew into the bottom left corner.

Zheng Yaxin, who had already thrown his body out in advance, pounced.

The ball is in!

Own goal!

Arsenal are 1-0 down!

The Arsenal fans were silent!

And the Norwich fans suddenly burst into earth-shaking cheers like the New Year.

Zheng Yaxin got up from the water-soaked turf and immediately spread out his hands to complain to Ben White.

Although the responsibility for this lost goal is not on him, his teammate blocked the ball into the goal still makes him angry!

This means that the stat points are gone!

Ben White lowered his head, like a 200-pound kid who had done something wrong, and didn't dare to look at Zheng Yaxin.

He knew that this shot would not be difficult for Zheng Yaxin at all, but just now the ball was shooting at him, he subconsciously stretched out his foot, and regretted it as soon as he stretched it out.

But it was too late.

On the sidelines, Arteta's face turned pale.

Corresponding to the beaming Norwich coach Farke, who is now raising his arms in celebration.

"Crooked, crooked, crooked, Arsenal are behind!"

"This ball is a beautiful shot!"

"Unbelievable!"

'If Norwich's continued siege of Arsenal was unexpected to me, then Norwich's lead over Arsenal was a natural thing.

"It's Norwich who dominates the pitch!"

'The camera shows Mikel Arteta, who is arguing with the referee about something.

The referee hesitated and ran to the var on the sidelines.

"Let's take a look at video intervention."

"The referee signaled that the goal was invalid!"

'When Rupp shoots, there is a Norwich player in an offside position!'

"Wow! Arsenal escaped! ”

'To be honest, the ball was completely effective, the Norwich players didn't interfere with the goalkeeper's view at all and didn't touch the ball.

"This ball is full of the smell of the home whistle!"

"To be honest, I've been commenting on the game for so many years, Arsenal have always been the victims, and this is the first time I've enjoyed the home whistle, so if you think about it from that aspect, there's nothing wrong with the ball blowing."

"Haha... Now Norwich boss Farke is on the protesting side. ”

"Feng Shui takes turns!"

"This game is so much fun!"
