Chapter 47 Thanks(1/2)
After Walcott easily broke through Matuidi, everyone's eyes were focused on him.
This is Arsenal's counterattack and the best time to play to its speed advantage. Can Walcott help Arsenal equalize the score?
Seeing Matuidi being passed, Manchester City's left-back Leiden Barnes quickly pressed on it, but he did not directly rush to Walcott, as Walcott would be passed by speed, just like Matuidi.
He just stood in front of Walcott and put pressure on him.
But the two people will always meet. Walcott didn't care how Leiden Barnes defended, and he drove the ball to Barnes.
Then when Barnes had to take off his feet, he swept the football one step faster than him, accelerated, passed
"Another Walcott" John Mortson's voice raised his tone again.
Then Walcott chased the football.
But at this moment, a blue figure appeared in front of him.
It's Godin
After Barnes went up, Godin automatically made up, so he is now barely considered a left-back.
In Benitez's tactical arrangement, in the face of such a situation, Barnes must be the first line of defense. He asked Godin not to be too far from Barnes, which would give the opponent a chance to defeat one by one.
But Godin cannot be too close to Barnes. In that case, if you meet a master, you can pass two people in one breath with a breakthrough, just like skewers of lamb skewers
This requires a very suitable distance. No one knows this suitable distance, and can only be found in repeated training.
Rongguang helped Godin and Benitez find this suitable distance again and again.
Walcott saw Godin appear in front of him and he accelerated toward the football.
Meanwhile, Godin was also rushing towards football.
Then Walcott caught up with the football first, but Godin was also very close to him. In order not to break the Football Cup, Walcott pushed the football forward with force, intending to overtake by speed without the ball and catch up with the football again...
But just as he was about to dodge Godin's impact, he didn't feel physical contact.
Godin raised his arm and forced the brakes in front of him. He had no intention of continuing to chase.
Walcott was a little surprised, but no matter what, Godin did not continue to post it, which was a good thing for him, so he started to speed up again and planned to chase the ball.
But he had just run out and looked up and saw the football he had been traversing out of the bottom line...
At this time, he realized that he was very close to the bottom line.
After passing Matuidi and Leiden Barnes continuously at speed, the distance between him and the bottom line was not enough to support him in using such a forced breakthrough again...
The referee's whistle sounded, and the lineman also gave the flag-ball
Not a corner kick, Godin didn't touch it
Walcott turned his head and looked at Godin again, and saw that he was slapping high with the return Leiden Barnes.
I thought Godin was going to intercept the ball, so I went a little bigger and then I would be a little smaller next time.
※※※
The next time Arsenal gets this opportunity again, Walcott once again used his speed to break through Leiden Barnes and chased the football.
At the same time, Godin also rushed to the football.
This time Walcott learned from previous lessons丨I didn't go too far. He took a small step forward gently. After breaking through Godin by speed, he could continue to control the ball, and then break into the penalty area directly to create chaos, and then pass the football to the teammate who was inserted... The teammate shot and scored.
What a perfect attack
Just when Walcott was thinking this way, he suddenly realized that the football he had traveled out was gone.
Godin, who was beside him, was already lying on the ground and made a tackle move, and what about the ball?
He has already destroyed it
Walcott was shocked
In fact, just as he was dribbling, Godin had quickly made a tackle. When he was running with Walcott, he stretched out his right foot to the outside and blocked the football that Walcott had waded out.
This is an opportunity to get the best of the net
Walcott stopped quickly, but his strong inertia still made him rush out. When he turned around, he saw that the football shoveled out by Godin did not go out of bounds, but fell at the feet of Leiden Barnes who was chasing back.
The left-back quickly passed the football slash to the midfield.
Sneider, who was retreating, received the football, then turned around and sent the football forward to the right side... where the glory is
Oops
This thought popped up in Walcott's mind...
Arsenal's counterattack before, but now it has become Manchester City's counterattack.
※※※
"Godin's beautiful Yu Jing's defense did not foul, he cut the ball. Leiden Barnes received the ball... Then he quickly transferred... Sneider made a diagonal pass to find the space-Rong"
John Mortson's voice was obviously rising when he shouted "Rong".
Because the cheers on the scene were also raised, if he did not increase his volume, he would be suppressed by the live sound effects...
Cheers were already heard in the stands at Manchester City Stadium, and the cheers were getting louder and louder.
Amid the huge cheers, Glory received the ball.
Facing his Arsenal central defender Vermullen who came up to defend, Rong Guang made a move to force a breakthrough from the outside. His right foot and his feet moved the ball forward and then accelerated.
Vermullen quickly ran back.
Arsenal's left back Krish assisted just now and was still on the way back to defense.
Vermullen can only make up for it from the center back position.
What he fears most is the incision of glory.
After all, there are few people in the middle of Arsenal now.
But now he feels much more at ease when he sees Rongguang going on the outside.
He adjusted his mindset and kept up with glory...
But just when Rongguang caught up with the football, his right heel suddenly knocked the football to the inside line
At the same time, Rongguang stopped suddenly, changed direction, twisted his waist and turned around
Vermallen was caught off guard and could not stop the car at all. He forced his brakes and was still driven forward by inertia.
He reached out his hand in despair, trying to hold on to the glory.
Rongguang had completed the full set of actions to turn around and start again, leaving him behind
"Rong——"
This sound was not called by commentator John Motterson, but by tens of thousands of Manchester City fans in the stands.
※※※
After Glory suddenly cut inside, another central defender Galas, who was originally guarding the middle, had to follow him up to block Glory.
Faced with his blocking, Rong Guang raised his left foot and made a long shot. Galas quickly went to the end, trying to block Rong Guang's shot with his body.
As a result, Rong Guang hit the ball with his left foot and broke through the ribs of the penalty area.
"Rong beautifully broke through and entered the penalty area. The current situation is so relaxed for him. Arsenal must have not expected their counterattack to be cut off so quickly, so that there are very few defenders in the backcourt."
After Glory broke through Galas' interception, Arsenal goalkeeper Amunia chose to abandon the goal and attack.
Rongguang swung his left foot again and made a shot.
Amunia fell to the ground to save the game. Rong Guang swung his left foot but did not shoot the ball out. Instead, he stepped on the sole of the shoe and pulled the ball to his right foot, and then shook Amunia.
Next, Rong Guang's right heel is a foot
Although the angle is not big, he is still confident that he can send the football into the goal.
Sure enough, the football rolled across the goal line without any suspense, and Fabregas, who was chasing all the way, only shoveled over at this time. He didn't shovel anything except the air and the turf...
※※※
"Rong Rongrong--" John Motterson whistled to the sky. "In 20, Manchester City led Arsenal 20 at home, not long before the second half began. Arsenal's revenge plan now looks like a joke."
After scoring the goal, Rongguang did not run to the corner flag area or to the coach's seat, but turned around and ran back. On the way, some teammates wanted to come up and hug him, but he was thrown away by speed. He ran to the front of Godin.
He pointed at Godin.
Godin was a little surprised. He was very happy after scoring the goal, but when Rongguang ran all the way and finally ran to him, he was stunned. He didn't expect Rongguang to run so far to hug him after scoring the goal...
Next, Rongguang had already hugged him.
Other teammates also flocked to the scene.
This time, because of the closeness, even goalkeeper Joe Hart ran out of the goal and joined everyone's celebration.
※※※
And Arsenal was collectively stunned.
They really came to Manchester with a revengeful heart.
To be continued...
