Fabregas's ball was close to the center line and rolled to the wing. Xiao Ge was in front of Ashley Cole. Xiao Ge faced the same situation as Fabregas. Although he stretched out his legs in advance, he was entangled.
The ball was hooked in the fight, but as soon as Xiao Ge turned around and walked away, he found that Gerald's long legs had already stabbed the ball, preventing Xiao Ge from easily getting rid of it.
The two were fighting inextricably, jostling and pulling at the same time. For the first time in the match, Gerald showed no mercy. It was obvious that Gerald had already prepared a strategy. In a hurry, Xiao Ge was pulled by Gerald.
Detang retreated step by step without any rhythm with the ball. He was carrying the opponent and flicking the ball, trying to find a breakthrough opportunity.
But for this game, Gerrard was well prepared for Xiao Ge both physically and mentally. Regardless of the opponent's movements, Gerrard stuck to Xiao Ge's body like a plaster, and there was not even a moment under his feet.
The pauses are like scissors, constantly stirring.
'Damn it!'
Although he knew that Gerrard would bring him a lot of trouble in this game, Xiao Ge did not expect to encounter such a difficult opponent. In the past two duels, Xiao Ge never knew that Gerrard's defensive skills were so good.
With his powerful waist and abdominal strength and explosive power, he made several consecutive movements, but was unable to get rid of the opponent at all, and could not even hold the ball completely.
Since he was not allowed to dribble the ball forward, he stopped dribbling the ball. Xiao Ge stepped on the ball with gravity, resisted Gerrard's impact, and then stabbed the ball to the backcourt with a fierce strike.
He turned around and rushed up at full speed. Then he raised his arms high - asking for the ball!
Gerrard felt relieved when he saw Xiao Ge sending the ball out. After fighting with Xiao Ge for nearly a minute, Gerrard not only relied on his strong body and outstanding awareness. More importantly, he devoted himself wholeheartedly.
, this kind of confrontation between the will and the body, even for someone as outstanding as Gerrard, who suddenly entered this state from the beginning, was somewhat difficult. Seeing Xiao Ge being guarded by him, there was suddenly no fierce confrontation.
This sudden up and down made Gerald instinctively relax a little, allowing Xiao Ge to break away and rush forward.
"Damn! Cunning monster!"
Gerrard felt the external force disappearing and cursed secretly. He didn't have time to take a closer look. He quickly responded and chased Xiao Ge, but found that he was already one position behind Xiao Ge. In an instant, he had escaped from his defensive area, allowing him to
He had a chance to advance forward with the ball. What was even more frightening was that because he defended one-on-one for one minute so well, no player behind him could keep up with him in time, leaving a big gap.
"Opportunity, perfect opportunity. Xiao got rid of Stephen, and the front is empty!"
"Phew. It seems that in the contest between Xiao and Stephen, Xiao won. Liverpool had a hole on the right in less than two minutes after the opening."
"Xiao Chong is up!"
"Stephen can't keep up!"
...
"Make it up, make it up!"
Before Benitez could sit down, he saw Xiao Ge throw away Gerrard and rush forward with rapid strides. Even though he didn't see the ball, Benitez's sensitive nerves were still uncontrollably aroused. This was
A terrible omen.
Everyone's eyes followed Xiao Ge running wildly. This scene was too familiar. It was completely Xiao Ge's offensive routine - a person rushing, rushing, rushing on the wing! Breaking through everything! Rushing to kill all opponents! At this time
From this scene, all that is left is the ball flying.
There was a crisp "swipe" sound, and in Arsenal's half, a black figure took the ball directly across the sideline.
After not playing for two-thirds of the season, he had just recovered from injury and appeared in such a heavyweight final against an opponent. Ashley Cole was too eager to perform, so when he saw Xiao Ge's high arms, he did not
He chose to pass the ball at the first opportunity, but hesitated whether to go inside to the middle, and used his speed to advance from the midfield to initiate an attack.
However, Ashley Cole's hesitation gave the cheetah-like Cisse an opportunity. The moment he chose to dribble the ball inside, Cisse's sliding tackle directly destroyed the ball out of the baseline. Xiao Ge also ran away in vain. Arsenal
The first round attack failed.
"Fortunately, fortunately."
"Oh, well done Cisse."
"Raphael's lineup is really hard to say."
"Haha, Xiao, just think of it as a warm-up."
"Ashley's hesitation cost Arsenal an excellent attacking opportunity."
"Alonso was restrained by Cesc Fabregas, and it was difficult for Finnan to stop Xiao who was charging. It's a pity."
"Ashley is not at his best yet."
"After all, we haven't played football together many times."
"Hey, but this is just the beginning."
...
Seeing Xiao Ge practicing "back and forth running" for a while, most people just felt a little confused, but didn't have much reaction. After all, the game was just going on. Looking at the situation, Xiao Ge was able to get rid of Gerrard's defense. Liverpool's
The defensive pressure seems to be quite high.
Wenger helplessly watched this opportunity go in vain, but the game had just begun. Wenger had enough reasons to sit on the seat. Xiao Ge was a little regretful, but saw Ashley Cole raising his hand to apologize.
, I didn’t take it to heart and didn’t care about this coordination error.
It's a bit regretful, but no one cares too much about the first round of the game, except for one person - Gerrard.
For Gerrard, who wanted to defeat Xiao Ge in the game, it was his lack of concentration this time that gave Arsenal a chance. Although there was a near miss, it was absolutely unacceptable to him. Defeating this man
, whether on or off the court, I tried my best to defeat him.
"Xiao, we will never have that opportunity again."
There was a muffled sound of "boron", and the sound of Gerald's teeth grinding could be clearly heard in his ears, and Xiao Ge felt his temples swell.
Ashley Cole sent a sideline ball. Liverpool focused on every Arsenal player, guarding against the tight end. Cesc Fabregas, who was retreating, could not get the ball. Ashley Cole had no choice but to hit the ball hard.
Throw it to the center line.
The two people got together again, pushing and shoving, facing the falling ball. Gerrard and Xiao Ge flew into the air almost at the same time, throwing their heads, and the two of them grabbed it together without any doubt.
Although Xiao Ge won the ball with his outstanding bounce, his temple was hit hard by the merciless Gerrard, which also caused Xiao Ge to fail to top the ball well, and a floating ball came up again.
The high and fluttering ball slid through the air again.
"Back off, back off!"
Watching the flight trajectory of the ball, Wenger's heart trembled, he bent his body suddenly, and kept waving his arms to let his players retreat, but it was a little late after all.
The ball fell high into the middle. Crouch in the middle took full advantage of his height. Although Silva was very stable and resisted the opponent to prevent him from exerting his strength, in front of the Premier League's top high forward,
Like a small potato, there is no hindrance.
"Peter!" "g——o!"
Crouch had never felt so comfortable fighting for a high ball. The ball fell straight down and almost hit him on the head. Therefore, even if his opponent hugged his waist to prevent him from getting up, it was quite easy for him to hit the back of his head.
The ball was quickly raised and fell between Arsenal's two central defenders.
At this time, Kewell, who was ambushing behind Crouch, rushed in from Arsenal's right wing immediately. Liverpool found a good opportunity in an instant, and the elusiveness of football broke out again.
"Oh my god, the ball..."
"Oh! Chance Liverpool!"
"How is that possible?!"
...
The rapidly changing situation on the court made countless people stand up in amazement, and the exciting and varied visual impact made their eyeballs bloodshot. Whether they were nervous or excited, exclamations on the court came and went. The change was too fast. It was obvious that just now it was
Arsenal's opportunity, in the blink of an eye, Liverpool showed its fangs, and it did not disappoint. From the beginning of the game, this powerful duel has set a passionate tone.
At this moment, the bloody Red Army fans couldn't stop being excited. They jumped up from their seats and stared closely at the changes on the field. The imagination in their hearts could not be suppressed.
Injuries and age have caused Campbell to lose his former Premier League center back style, and his weakness of slow turning has been infinitely magnified. Although he is in a better position, he allows the opponent to catch up quickly. What is even more frightening is his luck.
"G——o, Cowell!"
"Catch him, Thor!
"g-oh?!"
"So-**!"
“Haha, chewing on the turf!
"This, this is too embarrassing, isn't it?!"
...
The tight rhythm was suddenly interrupted by Campbell's appearance. The embarrassed Campbell lay on the turf and angrily smashed the turf. His face became even darker. He was actually on the last defensive line, watching helplessly.
He watched the other person pass by his eyes without any hindrance.
Lehmann didn't have time to pay attention to his teammate's slide, because Kewell easily passed Campbell, took advantage of the situation, and formed a single-handed attack in front of him. He didn't have time to hesitate, ran a few steps, directly skated over, and fought hand-to-hand.
"Ula la la la la -!"
"goooooa...l, Kewell, Kewell's beautiful goal, beautiful goal!!! One minute and fifty-seven seconds into the game, Kewell scored the Arsenal goal for us and took the lead.
Yes, we are ahead - yes!"
Watching the ball pass over Lehmann's head and fall into the net, the excited voice of the Liverpool commentator mixed with the excited cheers of the Liverpool fans instantly broke through the Millennium Stadium.
It's so fast, so unbelievable.
Whether they are Arsenal fans or Liverpool fans, almost as soon as the game started, the scoreboard was rewritten. All this happened so suddenly and so strangely. Seeing all these changes, Arsenal fans were eager to
There was a bit of excitement in the mood, and the Liverpool fans were even more restless.
God seems to favor the weaker Liverpool side, and the Christmas formation has always been good at defensive counterattacks. It seems to have its own rules. The charm of football is spreading. Whether it is Arsenal fans or Liverpool fans, they are looking forward to this game more and more.
