Chapter 108, Leading and Scoring

In the 11th round of the Premier League on November 11, Manchester United played against Arsenal at home. The game attracted the attention of many fans, and even Sir Alex Ferguson came to the scene to watch the game.

With the whistle of the referee, the focus of this match between Manchester United and Arsenal has begun!

"Today Wenger's team is still playing gorgeous artistic football as usual. They danced gorgeous football steps in front of Manchester United's penalty area."

"Manchester United is still playing in their standard 4-4-2 today, and the wing attack is their sharpest weapon. According to the news before the game, the left midfielder Mahrez, who has performed well recently, suffered some minor injuries. There was no way to play, so Kintag let Giggs go back to the left and Carrick was in charge of the midfield scheduling. Before the game, many people doubted whether the old Giggs could still fly on the left? Facts have proved that in the opening In these 10 minutes, Giggs' performance was not bad, he made a cross after a sharp breakthrough, causing chaos in the penalty area, and Rooney almost scored a goal."

"Rooney was Manchester United's best player in the first half, he had a great chance in the box and almost scored; he responded with a cross from the wing and Martial's shot was a little over the top Get out the beam."

"Arsenal's chance! Arteta has the ball! He puts the ball in front of Ozil."

"Ozil split, young Ramsey got the ball!"

"Pass into the penalty area! Look at this opportunity! Giroud turned around and hit the goal! De Gea struggled to catch it!"

"In the opening ten minutes, if Rooney was Manchester United's best player, then Giroud was Arsenal's hardest-working player. He ran in a large area in front of the penalty area and attracted the attention of several Manchester United defensive players. Arsenal's frontcourt players created several good chances to score goals. The shot just now was also full of threats. I guess the main reason why Giroud is in such a good state should be Van Persie on the opposite side."

The game was very intense from the very beginning, the two teams opened up and closed, full of offensive power. Arsenal played the artistic football advocated by Wenger, and the continuous short passes on the ground dazzled the fans; while Manchester United pursued a flank breakthrough and fast attack style of play, paying attention to speed and efficiency. The two teams had offense and defense against each other, and the fans in the audience enjoyed watching it very much.

After 20 minutes of the game, the two teams still failed to score. Although both sides had a lot of chances, they seemed to be unlucky. In addition, the goalkeepers of both teams performed very well, so neither team was able to break through the opponent's goal.

"This time is Arsenal's chance! Ramsey on the right took the ball forward! He diverted the ball with a long pass and handed it to Cazorla on the left! For Cazorla's cross, we still look for Giroud!"

"Headed goal by Giroud! The ball hit the crossbar! Manchester United escaped! Giroud was so annoyed that he kicked the post hard!"

"Although the goal was not scored, Giroud's performance today was outstanding. He can not only play for his teammates, but also create opportunities for direct attacks. There are not many such fulcrum centers in international football. Arsenal can get Giroud, it can be said that he has got a powerful striker. He is only 26 years old this year, and he is in his prime, with a bright future!"

"Arsenal's pass was blocked by Kante! Kante was everywhere! He passed the ball to the right and gave it to Martial. Martial's breakthrough, past Gibbs! He continued to go to the bottom line !Cross! Van Persie misses the ball! Rooney shoots from behind! The ball misses the post!"

"This is really a good opportunity. If Van Persie from the previous point can kick the ball, then the threat will be greater. It's a pity for this ball!"

At this time, the game has been played for half an hour, and the two teams are still 0-0. In the studio of Sky TV, Morris and Raman were talking about the game. Raman was full of praise for Giroud's performance, and even Morris praised Giroud's performance again and again: "Now this Arsenal has Giroud as the fulcrum." , Their style of play is richer.

Before, they only relied on short passes on the ground, but now with Giroud, it is suddenly different. With him in Manchester United's penalty area, Manchester United defenders not only have to defend Arsenal's ground attack, but also be careful of Arsenal's high-altitude bombing. With Giroud a little more, Arsenal's style of play will have several more routines. "

"And Giroud can still play the ball," Raman said, following Morris's words. "With him in the penalty area of ​​Manchester United, Manchester United's defensive players are in the throat. But on the other hand, Manchester United's center Van Persie, the game was silent. A lot. Except for the one goal return just now, he was hardly seen in this half-hour game. Many critics said that Giroud is not as good as Van Persie, but looking at the 30-minute game, Giroud is comparable to Van Persie Much better performance."

At this time, Scholes on the sidelines said: "Van Persie is in a normal state today."

Jin Taige shook his head and said: "I don't think he is in a normal state, but that the Arsenal players are too familiar with Van Persie's way of playing football. As long as Van Persie takes the ball in this game, he is immediately restricted by the Arsenal defender. Faced with their former captain every game, Arsenal really spared no effort to mark him."

Phelan next to him was worried: "Arsenal's attack is too fierce. If it continues like this, our defense will be under too much pressure. Just now Giroud's header almost scored. Fortunately, Old Trafford The goalposts at the Bundesliga helped us."

Jin Taige looked at the situation on the field. My side has wasted opportunities many times, and Arsenal's offense is so fierce. If the game continues like this, my team is really in danger...

Manchester United was unable to start the situation for a long time, while Arsenal's offensive became more and more fierce.

In the 41st minute of the game, Arsenal got a good chance.

This time it was Van Persie who took the ball in the Arsenal penalty area. He wanted to pass the opponent's Koscielny, but Koscielny judged the right direction and cut the ball off. Koscielny made a long pass and went directly to Cazorla in front.

"This is an opportunity! Cazorla took the ball forward! He rushed directly towards the baseline! Manchester United's right back Raphael is following him closely, preventing him from rushing into the penalty area!"

"At this time, Ozil and Ramsey in the midfield have not yet reached their positions, and there is only Giroud in front!"

"Kante came to help defend! The ball is going to be broken! Cazorla has no choice but to pass the ball to the middle!"

"Vidic and Van Dijk are already in their positions, Giroud has no chance at all!"

"The ball has passed! Let's see how Giroud handles it?"

"Is this... a barb shot?"

"The ball went in!!! Giroud made a very stretched barb in the penalty area, and the ball hit the upper corner of the goal very accurately. De Gea didn't react at all!"

"Giroud scored a wonderful goal, Arsenal lead Manchester United 1-0 away!"
