Chapter 100 Do we also want to play art football? (The bright moon is here!)
The game lasted less than ten minutes, and the Leicester City players felt very tired.
That wrong leg is too strong.
No, it's too strong.
Even if they have already played against Manchester City and Chelsea, they are not as tired as tomorrow.
Manchester City players' midfield control is top-notch, and Leicester City's defense is under great pressure.
Chelsea's three lines are well connected, their wing attacks are sharp, and Leicester City's physical strength is not small.
But tomorrow, they feel like they are punching cotton.
The wrong leg didn't even have any physical contact with them,
The repeated passes forced Leicester City's defense to run with them, making them very passive.
Even though Xia Xing's prediction and tackle were very good, Rosicky's passing was more exciting.
As expected, he can be called a midfield master who "if not for injuries, his skills are on a level with Qida".
Pearson was also under great pressure on the sidelines.
Fortunately, when he was in the locker room, he asked the players to stabilize the opening and then look for offensive opportunities.
Even so, their defense was very difficult.
Pearson was waving his legs vigorously towards the court, calling out the players' names and making two special leg movements.
Soon, the players gained confidence.
The two full-backs on the left and right, De Laet and Moore, moved slightly closer to the center, and James and Mahrez also moved their attack range further east.
Leicester City's team's offensive and defensive system is more centralized.
Facing Arsenal's fierce opening attack, Leicester City did not force the victory.
Although everyone outside the team was full of confidence in that game, everyone was also very aware of the strength gap between the two sides.
It is absolutely wrong to shout slogans in vain without considering the actual situation, otherwise you will be beaten to death by Arsenal.
Even though Leicester City was well prepared to cooperate in the frontcourt in that game, they still did not attack recklessly from the start.
During that time, he relied on counterattacks with quick and long passes from the midfield to threaten Arsenal's goal.
Conoket received a pass from Mahrez and shot a very threatening shot, but it missed the goal.
Leicester City's fast attack failed.
On the other hand, Arsenal's several wonderful collaborations did not yield any goals.
As time went on, their offense became slightly weaker.
In a football field, no single team can go all out and attack for 90 minutes, and there will definitely be an intermission.
Just in that gap, there is no good opportunity for Leicester City!
Ramsey's shot from the penalty area was hit by Schmeichel's double punch, and the ball landed at the foot of left back De Laet!
At this time, most of Arsenal's players are in Leicester City's half!
A good opportunity to counterattack!
De Laet made a cross kick and the ball went to Drinkwater's feet!
Brother Drinking Water makes a short pass forward!
The ball was controlled by Xia Xing!
Faced with Arteta's pressing, Xia Xing hit the wing again!
James quickly moves forward to catch the ball!
A non-stop diagonal pass!
Xia Xing used his speed to get past Arteta's defense!
Another diagonal pass from outside the penalty area!
Conoket caught the ball against offside!
He went it alone!
Push shot into the near corner of the goal!
"Szczesny blocked the ball with his foot!
“The Arsenal goalkeeper has done a great job!
"Perfect defense!
“Although there was no goal, Leicester City’s counterattack was wonderful!
"The shot from Arsenal was double punched by Schmeichel,
“Leicester City launched a fast attack from the back!
"Continuous passes from the left, very deft!
"Qu Chu Conoke's running position is also very important!
"Szczesny's defense was too good to allow Leicester City to score.
"I believe that defense will wake Arsenal up a bit."
Leicester City's fast break really shocked the Arsenal players a little.
Watching Leicester City's Championship games and the games against Manchester City and Chelsea before, Leicester City's offense is very direct and rarely plays the kind of continuous short passing coordination.
Why, do we also want to play artistic football?
hehe.
After a brief shock, Arsenal continued their offensive mode.
Rosicky had great control in the midfield in that game.
As a representative of the Czech golden generation, his passing imagination is simply unparalleled.
Ramsey also plays a huge role in the midfield, has excellent passing and control, and has a good shot.
Arteta's control of the field has a great sense of the overall situation.
The dexterous skills of Podolski and Cazorla put great pressure on Leicester City.
Giroud's pillar in the middle plays an obvious role.
Throughout the half, Arsenal almost completely controlled the game, except for a few Leicester City counterattacks.
Another fast break pressed Leicester City, and Xia Xing knocked down Rosicky with a frontal tackle.
Although the tackle was very fierce, there was no foul and the ball was successfully intercepted.
When Boluosiji got up from the ground, he felt some pain in his ankle.
Although the impact is not significant, I still feel uncomfortable.
Why does that kid have so much power...
Following Xia Xing's fierce defense, Leicester City players continued to strengthen their defensive toughness.
In the midfield, Arsenal players frequently fell to the ground and their offense was repeatedly interrupted.
In the 37th minute of the game, Ramsey had already passed the ball, but was kicked in the calf by Drinkwater who was trying to grab it.
The referee's whistle sounds!
Although he did not play his cards, Drinkwater issued a warning.
Drinkwater smiled and waved his legs to show that he did not do it on purpose. Toji paid attention.
The referee didn't say anything else.
Bu Nao's successive fierce defenses had some impact on Arsenal's offense.
Since Xia Xing's defense, his teammates seemed to have some revelations.
Even if Arsenal players pass the ball, they will continue to physically collide with other players.
Euphemistically called it, no inertia.
The scene seemed a bit rough, but that was not the style of a Championship team.
Arsenal fans booed in the stands, but the Leicester City soldiers didn't care.
They didn't commit a flagrant foul, it was just a reasonable collision. Why are we booing?
In the second minute of half-time injury time, Rosicky kicked the ball directly and slid out of the goal.
Arsenal finished with the first kick of the half.
The referee's whistle sounded and the game was over at halftime.
Neither side scored a goal.
Arsenal players returned to the dressing room unwillingly.
The Leicester City players also returned to the dressing room with lingering fears.
Playing in half court is too dangerous.
Back in the locker room, Pearson praised the team's performance.
"Guys, we did a great job in the half!
"If they can keep Arsenal clean, they have already won half the battle!
“In the eastern half of the game, they will continue to defend strongly.
"Don't miss the opportunity to fight back, Bu Nao.
“Our several fast breaks cooperated very well.
“If Szczesny hadn’t been so lucky, they would have scored!
"Vardi, Conoket,
“In the east half, we made a lot of sudden moves outside the penalty area.
"Then give the midfielders some opportunities to attack.
"Hit the wrong leg by surprise,
"They can definitely score goals!"
