Chapter 971 Only God Can...

"Pay attention to the defense of the two wings, don't be led away by them." Wenger shouted loudly from the sidelines.

This conceded goal made the professor anxious.

He smelled a bad smell, and it was also the familiar bad smell that Arsenal had encountered when they played Aston Villa in the past few years.

Is it really difficult for him to win Fangjue that guy?

The professor is very upset.

Then he saw the look in Ibrahimovic's eyes.

This look is wrong.

It looks provocative.

The professor is a little puzzled. It stands to reason that there is no quarrel between Ibrahimovic and Arsenal. How can there be such a strong sense of provocation and fighting spirit in the eyes of this Swedish veteran?

Wenger thought about it, but didn't pay much attention to it. He attributed it to Ibrahimovic's rebellious character.

Now, Wenger's headache is to do multiple choice questions:

One to one, the score was equalized by Aston Villa, how should Arsenal respond in this situation.

Is it to strengthen the defense and strive to hold a one-to-one tie?

Or press out to attack, hope to score another goal, and strive to win the game?

This is a tough multiple choice question.

Reason told Wenger: It is hard to say that the result will be satisfactory regardless of which one you choose.

Arsenal played for more than 60 minutes in a state of pressing and defending, which consumed a lot of energy. Wenger was not sure that Arsenal could hold on to the one-to-one score in the ensuing foreseeable physical crisis.

As for pressing out to attack?

Wenger wanted to, but this choice is to fight for offense and score goals.

It's just that Arsenal's current offensive firepower is still much inferior to that of Aston Villa. There is a high probability that Arsenal will have a chance to score again, but at the same time they will concede more goals.

The professor ends up making a tough choice.

Press out to attack.

If you can't defend, let's see if you can attack and create a miracle.

Of course, Wenger also emphasized that you must be careful of Aston Villa's counterattack. When returning to defense, Arsenal must: hurry up!

...

Then, five minutes later, Arsenal's attack was intercepted and Aston Villa played Arsenal's counterattack.

It cannot be said to be a quick counterattack, it can only be said to be a counterattack.

To be precise, this is a quick counter attack after being restrained to a certain extent, a well-organized pass and cut combined with a counter attack similar to positional warfare.

Mane dribbles the ball in from the left.

Jenkinson was originally defending Ibrahimovic who was running to this side, but he could only quickly drop Ibrahimovic and ran to the side to defend Mane.

As for Ibrahimovic, he can only be handed over to Diaby who is back on defense.

Aston Villa's offense was fast, but Arsenal's defense was not slow either.

Jenkinson was freed by Mane's change of direction with a change in speed.

"Damn it, don't jump so close!"

Cazorla cursed in his heart, and hurried over to fill his seat.

At the same time, Diaby left Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who came to try to surround Mane with Diaby.

Vermaelen came to make up for Ibrahimovic.

...

Mane takes a look at the passing route, Zlatan Ibrahimovic is marked by Vermaelen, Lewandowski has Mertesacker next to him.

If it is passed like this, although it is possible to be hit by a teammate, the threat is not that great.

so. Mane did not force the kick to pass, he made a gesture to pass the ball, which attracted Cazorla to move his body. He immediately buckled the football back and passed it diagonally back to the middle.

Modric came to meet him, he received a pass from Mane.

As soon as Modric received the ball, Walcott rushed to press.

Modric dunked the ball, avoided the opponent's pressing, and then immediately played the ball, diverting the ball to the right.

Thornton got the ball in the rib area outside the penalty area.

At this moment, De Bruyne suddenly inserted from Thornton's side at high speed, which attracted Monreal's attention.

Compared with Thornton with the ball, De Bruyne, who is running, is obviously more threatening.

And he predicts that Thornton will pass the ball to De Bruyne who advances with a high probability.

Therefore, Monreal retreated a little bit, taking into account De Bruyne's defense.

As soon as Monreal made a move, Thornton, who had the ball, suddenly cut inside and cut directly to the penalty area!

Thornton's sudden cut inside the penalty area was like a dagger suddenly inserted into the heart of Arsenal.

...

Monreal was shocked, he left De Bruyne in a hurry and rushed towards Thornton.

Thornton did not continue into the penalty area, but stabbed the football to De Bruyne in time.

Monreal immediately raised his hand, and he signaled that De Bruyne, who received the ball, was offside.

However, referee Henderson did not blow his whistle.

The linesman did not raise the flag either.

"No offside! Monreal signaled De Bruyne to be offside, but he didn't notice that Jenkinson on the other side was dragged behind!"

De Bruyne, who received the ball, flicked his ankle directly, dribbled the ball along the baseline and slipped into the penalty area!

"Breakthrough! Beautiful cooperation!"

After seeing De Bruyne dribbling the ball into the penalty area, there was chaos in front of Arsenal's goal.

Lewandowski and Mertesacker huddled together, and both hands moved, tugging and pushing towards the door. The former was about to grab a spot, while the latter was desperately trying to stop it.

And Arsenal's defenders also rushed towards De Bruyne, intending to stop him before he passed or shot, or to be able to block the football from the bottom line with his body.

De Bruyne naturally knew the opponent's plan, and he didn't give the opponent a chance.

Before the encirclement closed, De Bruyne swept his right foot and the football rolled towards the goal of the penalty area.

...

Under Mertesacker's desperate blocking, Lewandowski failed to touch the football in time despite trying to stretch his feet.

The football brushed past his toes.

Arsenal's goalkeeper Szczesny faced this kind of ball. He leaned back and wanted to tackle the football, but he also didn't touch the football.

The football flew to the back point.

There, Ibrahimovic and Vermaelen wrestled together.

Wenger stared at the penalty area, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief:

Because he saw Vermaelen hold Ibrahimovic, the Belgian central defender did not allow Ibrahimovic to turn around successfully.

Now, Zlatan Ibrahimovic has his back to the goal.

It was a successful defense.

In this case, it is very difficult for the opposing striker to score.

Wenger was very satisfied, and he made up his mind that if Senderos cannot be dug, Vermaelen must not let him go.

"Beautiful defense, Vermaelen held the old Ibrahimovic, beautiful, only God can do this..." The commentator in London did not finish his sentence.

I saw the football roll by, and Ibrahimovic's long legs moved slightly:

With a light tap on the heel, the touched football immediately changed direction and rolled towards the goal:

The football rolled into the goal.

The ball goes in.
