However, just when Crystal Palace planned to play it slow and maintain the balance of power on the field, they were unlucky today and suffered a second, almost fatal blow within less than 10 minutes of the first half.~~
The videos of Crystal Palace's first few Premier League games this season have been studied by other teams for a long time. If Bell does not assist, other teams are well aware of how strong their defensive ability is.
Therefore, at the beginning of this game, after feinting two attacks on the left, Arsenal put all their focus on their left and Crystal Palace's right.
Their second goal in this game also came from here.
After a series of kicks in the frontcourt, Arsenal, led by their goal scorer Robin Persie, successfully broke through Richardson from the left and reached near the baseline.
But maybe the general seemed too careless after passing the pass, or he underestimated Richardson's ability. After passing the pass, he was too slow to find the connection point in the penalty area, causing Van Persie to miss the pass.
Best time.
No, just when Van Persie found a connecting point and planned to pass the ball, Richardson performed very well from the wing and blocked the general's cross with his legs, blocking the baseline.
A threatening cross only resulted in a corner kick. After seeing the ball blocked by Richardson, Van Persie was very annoyed and stretched his hand to Adebayor in the middle of the penalty area, indicating that the ball was his responsibility.
Taking the ball from the ball boy on the sidelines, Van Persie, eager to atone for his sins, ran towards the corner kick with the ball in his arms. Even though Arsenal's corner kicks are usually not taken by him.
The ball was safely placed at the corner kick. This time, without anyone interfering, the general gave it to the Crystal Palace penalty area without hesitation. He admired the positions of the players on both sides and waited until the referee was on duty.
Referee Weber blew the whistle for the second time and finally remembered that Van Persie should take the corner kick, so he hurriedly took a run and then kicked the ball out.
It's a pity that Van Persie doesn't usually take corner kicks. He doesn't know what kind of force is appropriate. This time, it was better. Because he should not have been distracted before, Van Persie, this time under the urging of Webber's whistle, hurriedly took the corner kick.
The ball was kicked out. Therefore, it is really difficult to demand the accuracy of the general's corner kick.
No, when he saw the ball sliding high in front of the goal, even Diego Lopez, who had always been serious about his words, almost laughed out loud.
However, I don't know if Arsenal deserved to win today. The general took a corner kick that was obviously a mistake. After flying across the crowd in the middle of the penalty area, by coincidence, he stayed on the sidelines.
The road at the foot of Walcott!
The arch of his foot gently moved to stop Van Persie's pass, which was called a pass. Walcott did not make the same mistake as Van Persie before. Neither team members in the Crystal Palace penalty area were able to react.
At that time, Walcott didn't worry about who should pass the ball to, he didn't even take aim, he just took off his foot. With a low ball attitude, Walcott once again sent the ball into the Crystal Palace penalty area!
And Walcott's sweeping pass is much more threatening than Van Persie's pass.
Any fan with some experience knows that this kind of ball is what defenders and goalkeepers are most afraid of. This kind of cross does not pursue who it is looking for, but only pursues strength. If one of the defenders is not careful and changes the direction of the ball in the middle,
It is very likely to cause an own goal, not to mention, there are so many Arsenal players in the middle who are eyeing him.
"Click!" This time, Arsenal continued their previous luck. After Walcott's cross flew into the Crystal Palace penalty area, it went over the mountains and ridges. It was very accurate and reached Arsenal's right back Salon.
In front of Nia.
And with such a close distance and such a good opportunity, even though Sagna is only a defender, no one can tap out his restless heart!
Obviously he could play directly, but there were no Crystal Palace defenders within 2 meters of him. In order to play more beautifully, Sagna jumped up from the spot as if to perform, and then put his right foot down.
He reached behind him, deliberately waiting for the ball to reach a little bit behind his body, and then used his heel to block the ball towards the Crystal Palace goal!
If Sagna scored this goal with this juggling method, it would be really beautiful! It is very likely to enter the top 100 goals of the year. But, why, Sagna seemed to have forgotten something before making this choice.
A very important fact is that he is a defender!
Well, the consequence of him forgetting this fact is that Walcott's cross is just a low ball. Even if he wants to score with his heel, he will not be able to jump! The consequences of his jump
, it was a pity that he missed the opportunity and missed the ball from under his body.
However, today is destined to be Arsenal's lucky day. If, when playing against Liverpool, Crystal Palace's defense had played with a trio of deceitful players, this time, Arsenal was very lucky and played a quartet of luck.
In the first step, Van Persie's mistaken corner kick fell to Walcott, who was not very active. The corner kick ran to the feet of Walcott who was wandering near the sideline.
In the second level, the crowd was very dense in the middle of the penalty area. Walcott's sweeping pass made him do an interview after the game. He would never dare to lie that before he passed the ball, he was following Sagna's pass.
.
Next, is the key point. Just when Sagna was embroidering and doing fancy things, but the result failed, the ball that missed Sagna's body still did not enter the control range of the Crystal Palace defenders.
, but arrived at the feet of Arsenal centre-back Senderos, who had been standing there without moving.
Every mistake was wiped out by his teammates, it was truly a trio.
In the end, Senderos faced the ball. He, who has always been simple, could not imitate the second-rate Sagna who used his heel to shoot the ball. He honestly pushed the ball, and Senderos used the arch of his foot to hit the ball.
Aiming at the center of the goal, he pushed it past.
"Bump!" Arsenal had made a series of accidental cooperation in the penalty area before. Diego Lopez's whole heart was upset by the Arsenal players, and he was not afraid of people's jokes. This ball,
Lopez actually didn't have much hope of saving it. After all, Senderos, the goalkeeper, was too close to the goal. At this distance, as long as the ball didn't hit the goalkeeper on its own, it wouldn't be possible for anyone else.
Create miracles.
But what Diego Lopez never dreamed of was that God really heard his call and took care of his only fantasy. This time, when he was almost about to hand over his gun.
, Senderos actually cooperated like this and fired the ball towards the center where he was. Moreover, it should be because he is a defender and has no skills in shooting. Not only did Senderos shoot the ball in the right direction,
No, in terms of strength, it also seems soft! Even 100 or 101 Lopez would dare to save this kind of ball!
However, the final development of the matter was not fully estimated by Lopez. For Lopez to make this judgment now, it is obvious that it is too early to be happy...
