Chapter 842: No One Enters
Gao Xiaodong's corner kick spun directly into the net, helping Manchester United break the deadlock.
This magical goal made all the fans cheer for it. The miners from Chile rushed out of the box excitedly, singing and dancing, almost stealing Gao Xiaodong's shot and becoming a scene in the Old Trafford stands.
Manchester United's lead is unacceptable to Arsenal. Defeating Manchester United away from home is the only condition for Arsenal to maintain the suspense of the title.
Arsenal did not play badly. In order to get three points in the away game, Arsenal, which has always advertised artistic football, also adopted rough foul tactics. During the opening period, the two sides were basically evenly matched. Manchester United took the lead with Gao Xiaodong's corner kick. The Gunners were very unconvinced and unwilling. After another kick-off, Arsenal stepped up their pressing in the midfield and tried to equalize the score as quickly as possible.
After Manchester United took the lead, their style of play changed. Giggs was in a good position and finally became a real winger. After Gao Xiaodong returned to the center, he positioned himself slightly behind and tried his best to cover the defense in the center and left. However, with Gao Xiaodong Xiaodong's speed means that when attacking, he can reach Arsenal's penalty area before Scholes.
Although it is said that Arsenal's cooperation is like mercury, in fact, after 2006, Arsenal's short pass penetration ability has declined. That is to say, it can be called mercury when compared with English teams. Facing the excellent defense and physical strength of Manchester United and Chelsea, With such strength, it is difficult for Arsenal to cooperate like mercury falling to the ground.
Arsenal attacked fiercely for almost ten minutes, and finally found a flaw in Manchester United during the transition between offense and defense. Center back Koscielny quickly released the ball, and Russian Tsar Arshavin quickly counterattacked with the ball along the wing. Manchester United winger Nani was beaten by Al With Chauvin behind him, Rafael was the only one defending in front.
Seeing Arshaven Gao rushing towards him with the ball, the young Rafael was a little panicked. He adopted the safest defensive method and retreated to wait for the help of his teammates.
Arshavin is not an ordinary player. His dribbling ability is very good. There is not much difference between dribbling and empty running. Rafael retreated to his side of the penalty area, and his teammates did not catch up.
Arshavin suddenly changed inside while dribbling the ball.
Arshavin's shooting ability was so good that Rafael had to move laterally to keep up.
Arshavin quickly buckled the ball back and was about to make a pass, but suddenly, Arshavin saw a teammate inserting himself into the ribs of the penalty area. Arshavin cleverly made a cross pass and found the forward teammate.
The one who sneaked forward was Arsenal genius Wilshere. He smoothed the ball with the outside of his foot and went directly into the penalty area.
When Arshavin passed the ball, Vidic realized it and rushed to block Wilshere's shot.
Wilshere's skills are very good. Facing the blockage of Manchester United's iron guard, Wilshere pushed and pushed with his feet and used a fried meatball technique to get past Vidic.
This pass was very exciting, and it was still Vidic, but after Wilshere passed Vidic, he was almost to the baseline. The shooting angle was very small, and Van der Sar also blocked it to the near corner. In this situation Next, Wilshere can pass back in an inverted triangle. Although it may be intercepted by Vidic, as long as the pass is passed, his teammates will be able to form a good shooting opportunity.
However, Wilshere did not pass the ball. He forced his foot to shoot, but the ball was blocked by Van der Sar's hands and missed the baseline.
Seeing Wilshere pass Vidic, the Arsenal fans were overjoyed and stood up, thinking that something was going on. However, they did not expect that Wilshere forced the shot without an angle and only won a corner kick. The fans All very disappointed.
Wenger also shook his head and sighed. Wilshere is a player he values very much, but compared with Wilshere and Manchester United's Gao Xiaodong, the gap in football intelligence is obvious. Gao Xiaodong can always make the right choice, even if he occasionally fails. Reasonable, just like the corner kick just now, Gao Xiaodong was lucky enough to score the ball, but Wilshere was always a little behind.
Arsenal's corner kick, Koscielny and Squilani both came to Manchester United's penalty area to fight for the top, but Manchester United's air defense ability was very good, and the ball was easily pushed out of the penalty area by Ferdinand.
Although Manchester United slightly shrunk their formation after the goal, they will never be conservative when playing against a team like Arsenal. When Arsenal took a corner kick, there were three players outside trying to grab the second spot, Giggs. , Scholes and Rooney.
The ball fell and was snatched by the old demon Scholes. Seeing Scholes take the ball, Rooney immediately ran forward to beat Arsenal's counterattack.
Arsenal are well aware of Scholes' role in Manchester United. When Scholes grabbed the ball, Clichy immediately pounced on it to prevent Scholes from passing forward.
Scholes did not get rid of it. At this time of transition from defense to offense, the opponent will definitely adopt foul tactics. It is difficult to get rid of the opponent.
Fortunately, there was Giggs. Scholes passed the ball directly to Giggs. He believed that his old friend could handle the ball.
After Scholes passed the ball, Clichy did not let him go. He knocked Scholes directly with his body and then pounced on Giggs.
At this moment, Giggs had a clear understanding of the situation on the court and had sufficient time to handle the ball. He stopped the ball, pushed the ball with the arch of his foot, and passed it to the running Rooney. He also ran forward quickly to meet Rooney.
After Rooney received the ball, he kept his head down and rushed forward desperately. Arsenal's backcourt had a lot of space. As long as he rushed behind the defender, it would be a chance for a one-shot ball.
However, Rooney's dribbling speed is not very fast, and Sagna is constantly forcing him to the side. By the time he reaches Arsenal's 30-meter area, Song and Clichy have already caught up.
Rooney couldn't carry him any longer, so he looked back to see if any teammates were coming to help him.
What made Rooney happy was that Gao Xiaodong actually ran in front of Giggs. Rooney believed in Gao Xiaodong's ability. He immediately passed the ball to Gao Xiaodong and ran forward, hoping that Gao Xiaodong would create a wall for him.
This is the most common pass-and-cut coordination. Everyone thought that Gao Xiaodong would give Rooney a kick-the-wall coordination. Song and Klich did not even try to double-team Gao Xiaodong, but ran directly with Rooney, trying to prevent Rooney from getting the ball. .
However, Gao Xiaodong did not create a wall for Rooney. After the ball was passed, Gao Xiaodong moved the ball toward the baseline and hurriedly chased the ball.
Rooney didn't expect that Gao Xiaodong didn't cooperate with him, but when he saw Gao Xiaodong throwing the ball toward the baseline, he certainly knew what to do. Rooney also ran to the penalty area with all his strength. He believed that Gao Xiaodong would be able to catch up with the ball and be ready to respond. Gao Xiaodong's cross ball.
Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny saw Gao Xiaodong kicking the ball towards the baseline and knew that it would be dangerous if Gao Xiaodong caught up with him. He immediately struck out laterally and rushed towards the ball, hoping to destroy the ball before Gao Xiaodong.
Gao Xiaodong used his speed to the extreme and finally grabbed the ball before goalkeeper Szczesny. At this moment, the ball was almost reaching the bottom line. Gao Xiaodong had no choice. He passed the ball across goalkeeper Szczesny's feet. The pass passed into the penalty area, giving Rooney a chance to hit the empty goal.
Rooney was one step faster than the two Arsenal defenders. He ran two steps and whipped the ball towards the goal.
The ball was only three meters away from the goal. It was definitely a must-goal. However, what was surprising was that Rooney actually kicked the ball onto the crossbar and bounced out.
Seeing the ball pop out, Rooney squatted in front of the goal with his head in his hands, dumbfounded.
Suddenly the whole place was in an uproar.
"Hold the grass! This can also be kicked away!"
"God! It's definitely harder to kick away than to kick in!"
"This is definitely a world-class clearance!"
"Undercover Lu!"
"Lu Wei!"
"Oh my god! What other goals can be scored!"
“You’re feeding me till you reach your mouth and you don’t even eat it!”
…
Manchester United fans were almost going crazy with Rooney. This was a good opportunity to seal the victory.
Ferguson was shocked! He hugged his head. He couldn't figure out how Rooney's kick hit the crossbar.
