"Arsenal's continuous fast-paced downfall and an attacking opportunity on the right."

"Adebayor tried to make a cross from the right and the ball was blocked from the bottom line. Corner kick."

"Van Persie came and took the corner."

"Arsenal's high points are all in the Manchester City box, look at this one."

"Van Persie makes a quick free throw, back, Gallas, header!"

"Neuer's reaction is very fast, his body is also very stretched, and he directly throws his arms and holds the ball very firmly."

"Manchester City's quick counter-attack, a long pass to Giroud, and then to the left, Hazard dribbled continuously, and the ball was blocked out of bounds."

"It was a Manchester City throw-in."

"The referee signaled that Manchester City is going to make a substitution."

"There were cheers from the Manchester City fans at the Etihad Stadium, we saw Robben in the No. 11 shirt waiting for his chance to play, this time he is going to be replaced by No. 15 Daniel S. Turic."

"Manchester City fans are also full of expectations for Robben's appearance, but after joining Manchester City this season and returning to the Premier League, Robben was fixed on the right by Gao Shen, and his performance has always been unsatisfactory. No rumours of infighting and see if he can help Manchester City today."

...

After Robben gave Sturridge a high five and hugged, he ran quickly into the field.

Along the way, David Silva, Rakitic and others gave him high fives one by one.

The Dutch also brought up the latest instruction from the head coach Gao Shen, that is, Manchester City will try to consolidate its advantages in the midfield next, and at the same time actively play two flanks on offense, to give full play to the personal ability advantages of Hazard and Robben.

Arsenal's current lineup is a bit strange, it looks like 4231, and a bit like 442, but occasionally Cesc Fabregas retreats and still plays a three-back midfielder, letting Rosicky move forward.

One of the most obvious features is that there is no wing in the midfield.

Rosicky is sometimes on the left, and Diaby is often on the right, but in fact, Diaby is more active in the middle, and Rosicky is not the traditional left wing, but more like a left midfielder.

In this case, Arsenal's wing is actually relatively thin.

Sturridge is not a traditional winger, and Gao Shen discovered it when he hit Clichy's side before.

The England striker is best at sloping into the penalty area from the ribs, speed and technology are his advantages.

In fact, one of the important reasons for Sturridge's rapid fall was that injuries caused his speed to slow down, which in turn made him lose this advantage, and his performance on the court was getting worse and worse.

So, in this game, Sturridge didn't hit Clichy's side very well.

Originally, according to Gao Shen's plan, he wanted to replace Giroud and let Sturridge play the center position, but considering Sturridge's performance, Gao Shen chose to replace him and keep Giroud. on the field.

At this moment, a hard-working center is more important than a cruising forward who is not very stable.

Robben conveyed Gao Shen's latest instructions. Gao Shen stood on the sidelines, hugged Sturridge, and asked him to go back to rest. He walked to the sidelines, shouting David Silva, Rakitic and Harvey. Martinez, signalling them to pay attention to the flanks.

As early as in the preparation stage, Gao Shen had already discussed with the players how to play under any circumstances. He believed that the players knew all about it.

...

After the substitution, Arsenal quickly launched an attack.

Adebayor and Rosicky had a match on the left flank of Manchester City's half.

Rosicky volleyed the ball to Adebayor. The Togo center dribbled the ball skillfully, dribbled the ball on the left side, forced Mika Richards away, dribbled the ball all the way to the bottom line of Manchester City, and then went inside. Cut into the penalty area and sent the ball to the goal, but fortunately Harvey Martinez retreated in time to block Robin van Persie and clear the ball.

Arsenal's attack scared everyone in Manchester City into a cold sweat.

The gunner's attack is still very strong.

Gao Shen kept shouting to the player on the sidelines, motioning him to calm down, hold his breath, and hold the ball.

At the same time, he asked David Silva and Rakitic to slow down the pace of the game a little and change the offensive line.

...

Robben played for more than four minutes without ever touching the ball.

During the period when Manchester City made substitutions, Arsenal actually attacked more fiercely.

Rosicky just kicked a pass from the outside of the penalty area and sent the ball directly behind Manchester City's defense line. Van Persie stepped in to head the goal, but the ball was preempted by Neuer and picked up from mid-air.

Arsenal also significantly strengthened the marking on Robben's side.

Manchester City tried to play the right flank several times, but it didn't work.

With a big wave of David Silva's hand, the team's offense immediately turned around and began to play on the left side of Hazard.

Robben also understood what his teammates meant.

Arsenal have long been prepared for Manchester City's right-sided attack. Instead of continuing to entangle on the right, it is better to play on the left first and then transfer.

Therefore, when Manchester City attacked to the left, Robben moved closer to the middle and gave way to the right.

Mika Richards is very fast and can still be pressed when attacking.

Hazard and David Silva are both players with delicate feet. The two technical players formed a continuous pass in the outer left corner of the penalty area. Arsenal just failed to grab the ball from their feet. .

Hazard dribbled the ball and tried to break into the penalty area from the left corner. He was flanked by two Arsenal defenders and was forced to pass back to David Silva. The Spaniard stopped the ball, glanced at the penalty area, and rubbed his left foot. Out of a headed ball, the ball hoisted into the big penalty area.

Robben was ready to respond at any time on the right side of the top of the arc. After seeing David Silva rubbing a pass, he quickly moved forward and shouted at Giroud, "Five o'clock!"

Giroud didn't look back, turned his back to the goal, and used his body to suppress Gallas behind him.

The French central defender tried desperately to hold Giroud from behind, preventing him from jumping and threatening the goal. Next to him was Vermaelen helping to protect Giroud from turning around.

Giroud, who is 1.92 meters tall, has a very obvious advantage in front of Gallas, who is 1.82 meters tall, especially his strong body. After suppressing Gallas and seeing the ball flying over, he is accurate. When the time came, he suddenly took a step forward, and the whole person jumped high.

Gallas and Fermaelen were also taken aback, and rushed forward, and Gallas took off.

But Giroud didn't think about heading for the goal, but headed David Silva's pass to the right of the small box.

In front of the Fermaelen side, there is just an unmanned space.

If you carefully compare the position where Jirou was stuck just now, it is not difficult to find that it is exactly five o'clock.

Fermaelen's attention was attracted by Giroud. After the French center headed the ferry, he realized the danger, turned around quickly, rushed towards Robben who was running, and slipped directly to the ground. shovel.

But no matter how fast Vermaelen's reaction was, it couldn't be faster than Robben's.

The Dutchman had long faced the pass from Giroud and shot a volley with his left foot.

The football was swept directly into the right side of Arsenal's goal by Robben.

"goalllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!!!"

In an instant, the 50,000 Manchester City fans across the Etihad Stadium rushed frantically.

The whole place is boiling!

All the people were cheering wildly.

"Robben!!! Robben!!!!"

"In the 77th minute, Robben scored a goal for Manchester City!"

"Two to one!"

"My God, this is the Dutchman's first goal since his return to the Premier League!"

"We saw that Robben's performance did not improve much after he came on the bench, but his movement was obviously more flexible. He no longer restricted himself to the right, but appeared in the middle. This is a A very big change."

After Robben scored, the whole person rushed out of the field, ran all the way, and cheered around the field.

The entire Manchester City fans stood up, cheered for him, and gave their applause.

The Dutchman quickly rushed to the home team's coach's bench, facing the head coach Gao Shen, rushing directly over to pick him up by the waist.

Live footage captured Robben's excited cries.

"Do not attack yourself!"

"We saw that Robben, after scoring a goal, went around the field to celebrate, ran directly to the coach's bench, and hugged his head coach Gao Shen, which is equivalent to proving to everyone that he and the head coach are close There is no conflict between them.”

"Manchester City's players are also swarming."

"By the way, tonight is also the birthday of Manchester City head coach Gao Shen. If you can win Arsenal at home and win five consecutive victories, this will be the best birthday gift for head coach Gao Shen."

...

Gao Shen was also very excited.

He didn't expect that Robben would suddenly make this move, but after the excited celebration, he calmed down quickly.

"We can try to attack from the left, attract the attention of the defense, and then suddenly move to the right, let Robben one-on-one, kill Clichy!"

Gao Shen's right hand made an action of cutting something.

Robben just scored a goal, and now he is very excited, patted his chest and assured: "If you are one-on-one, leave it to me, I promise to score Arsenal's goal again!"

The Dutch said this with unusual confidence.

No one will doubt Robben's strength, because a healthy Robben is definitely a world-class superstar.

Hazard and David Silva have also tasted the sweetness from the series of moves just now, realizing that they can actually attract more defensive attention, and it is better to attract Arsenal's entire defensive formation.

"Okay, let's do it like this. There are still ten minutes in the game, and we still have plenty of time."

"Remember, we're at our home tonight, don't settle for a one-goal lead, we're going to keep attacking and get more goals, understand?"

Manchester City's players responded.

...

Manchester City players were very active in front of the home team's coaching bench, with high morale, making everyone feel their ambition and fighting spirit at this moment.

This also made Wenger in front of the visiting team's coach suddenly have an ominous premonition.

In particular, a series of attacks by Manchester City just now made Wenger feel the crisis.

After so many years of coaching, Wenger's hunch is still quite accurate.
