Chapter 606 Huo Cun Miracle Is This Still a Defender?

Today is the anniversary of the "Hillsborough Stadium Tragedy" 20 years ago. The words "Arsenal mourns Hillsborough" were displayed on the big screen. The 96 fans who lost their lives prayed. The already chill atmosphere at the scene became even more dignified at this moment.

Guest commentator Adams, who has won four English top league titles for Arsenal and is known as the greatest captain in Arsenal's history, Adams expressed his dissent to Wenger's starting, saying: "Arseni's decision is usually Correct, but today's defense line has too many changes. For a team, it's okay to have a big change in the midfield and striker line, but it's better to keep the back line stable.

We haven't won a championship in three years, all the boys are very talented, maybe their skills are better than their predecessors, this is a very skilled generation, but they need to learn how to become champions, Arsenal are too young , lack of experience, this season's Champions League may be another chance for Arsenal to make history, Manchester United is facing the edge of being eliminated, as long as we win this Bundesliga rookie, we will almost be able to reach the final. "

After the start of the game, Hoffenheim, who kicked off first, still maintained the tactics of the previous game, stabilized the defense, waited for an opportunity to counterattack, and gave possession of the ball to Arsenal.But slightly different from the previous game, Arshavin this time moved to the left winger position, which was used by Rangnick to suppress Walcott's attack.

The little tiger played very well in the last game. If it wasn't for Hoffenheim's full defense and Weiss went to defend with Ibezberg, Hoffenheim would have been sieved by him on the left.

Rangnick knew that it would not be enough to just defend, so he asked Arshavin to attack Arsenal's right flank, suppressing the opponent's right back's assist, and distracting Walcott to return to the defense.The other three defensive midfielders took more thoughtful care of the two wingers.Gustavo is always available to support Ibetzberg.

Today's starting lineup and tactical arrangement were worked out by Lannick. Lannick believed that he could completely restrain his opponent's formation in the previous game. However, what Lannick did not expect was that Van Persie made his debut in this game. This is A major variable, the Dutchman's skills are very good, he can pass and shoot, he and Adebayor teaming up is likely to cause a qualitative change, Rangnick can only pray that he just recovered from his injury and is not in a good state.

Hoffenheim's three-back formation makes defense more scientific. The last game was purely passive and all members returned to defense. It was rather chaotic, so the scene looked very ugly, and it was impossible to organize an overall counterattack. They just used the personal abilities of Li Huan and Arshavin to counterattack sporadically. Fortunately, Arsenal lost two defensive generals temporarily. Tom scored two goals.

But the defense of the seven players in the backcourt is as orderly as a factory assembly line. The two wingers Arshavin and Obasi also actively retreated to help defend. In order to give Demba Ba playing time, Van Nistelrooy does not need to save energy. The game also had a defensive task. Under the tight and tacit defense of Hoffenheim, even though Arsenal's passes and cuts were infiltrated with a variety of tricks and fast as lightning, Hoffenheim was still helpless.

The game lasted nearly 10 minutes before Arsenal got a chance to shoot on target.

Right back Eboue passed the ball on the left side of Hoffenheim's penalty area. Fabregas took away Tymoshchuk who was marking him with a running position. Goalkeeper Hildebrand was very focused and blocked the ball out of the baseline with one hand.

Then Cesc Fabregas took a corner kick to the left of Hoffenheim, and Arsenal forward Adebayor headed it over the goal under the marking of Simunic.

Hildebrand drove the ball to the frontcourt to look for Ruud van Nistelrooy. Ruud van Nistelrooy, entangled by the opponent's two central defenders, made a volley and lobbed Arsenal's goal. However, Fabianski's performance today was also Excellent, although he stood a little forward, but he was very focused, and Ruud's unexpected lob shot was also blocked by him.

This was Ruud van Nistelrooy's and Hoffenheim's first shots. Under the onslaught of Arsenal, Hoffenheim got very few chances to get the ball. This was also expected by Lenny before the game. Today they mainly The success rate is played, and the goal is shot when there is a chance. The main energy is still on the defense line. As long as they can defend, the victory belongs to Hoffenheim.

After Hoffenheim stabilized their position in the first 15 minutes, Li Huan gradually started to counterattack. In this game, Hoffenheim put the focus of attack on the right side. Chauvin's personal ability to harass, it is very difficult to break through the defense of Ivorian defender Eboue.

Originally, Lannick thought that Li Huan was on the wing of Clichy, but he did not expect to be replaced by 20-year-old Gibbs today. This made Lannick happy and puzzled. He didn't know why Wenger made such an arrangement. This teenager really has such outstanding strength, but he is still confused.However, no matter what the situation is, Rangnick doesn't care about it. Li Huan is the world's football player and recognized as the world's number one offensive defender. With the help of Obasi, he can completely defeat anyone's defense.

In fact, Wenger had no choice. Clichy sprained his ankle during training yesterday. Although it was not a serious injury, he had to rest for at least three to five days. Wenger could only send the young player Gibbs up.Although this is Wenger's passive substitution, Gibbs' strength is not bad. Because of his age, Gibbs' physical fitness is slightly inferior to Clichy's, but Gibbs' passing ability is significantly higher. First, there is a stark contrast between the two in terms of styles: Clichy's high-speed breakthroughs and tackles are full of domineering, while Gibbs handles the ball more calmly. The only thing that worries Wenger is Gibbs' experience. But Li Huan, the number one magic wing in the world.

In the last game against Arsenal, Li Huan played very cautiously. No matter how fast he was, he could not match the speed of the ball. The opponent's attack speed was too fast, and the pass was very accurate. Even if they want to intercept, they may not be able to stop it. Now that they have a one-ball lead, Li Huan is not sure, let alone attack easily.

Gibbs is not afraid of tigers as a newborn calf, and Li Huan has few assists. He thought Li Huan was afraid of Arsenal's offense. In such a game that fans and media all over the world pay attention to, young people always want to express themselves, hoping to become famous in one fell swoop. Then he became the main force, got a high salary, and bought a sports car. Under such a temptation, knowing that standing in front of him was the World Footballer, Gibbs still frequently assisted.

Li Huan came from the age of 20, and he knew what Gibbs was thinking when he saw Gibbs eager to try. In the first ten minutes, he was very patient and shamelessly seduced Arsenal's young lady, letting Gibbs attack He was very excited, as if he was about to tear through Hoffenheim's defense line, but Li Huan was like a demon calculating the space behind him, ready to launch a fatal blow.

Gibbs was more cautious at the beginning. When he was assisting, he also checked to see if there was anyone behind him to defend himself, and whether the defense line was empty, but the 6 fans in the stands chanted his name together, and kept shouting for him. Okay, let him score one, he gets more and more excited the more he plays, as if he has been injected with chicken blood, where does he ask about the defense line, he just wants to score one or assist one.

After 20 minutes of the game, Arsenal still failed to break through the Hoffenheim goal. This made the young Arsenal a little impatient. Their heads were hot, and they forgot the scene of being counterattacked by their opponents at the Rhein-Neckar Arena. more and more troops.

In the 21st minute, Cesc Fabregas shot from the front of the penalty area and bounced high on the defender. Adebayor, who scored in the previous game, squeezed away the defense and grabbed a high header from 12 yards. Goalkeeper Hilde Bran's arms.

Three minutes later, Tymoshchuk pushed down Adebayor in front of the arc of the penalty area. Van Persie shot from a free kick from 3 yards and forced Hildebrand to hit the ball with both fists. Walcott hoisted it into the penalty area again. Bayeux headed the ball from close range, but the speed of the ball was a bit slow. The three Hoffenheim players retreated to the goal line, and Simunić, the tallest, pushed the ball over the baseline.

These two waves of offense made Hoffenheim in a hurry, and Arsenal almost scored a goal.This made the Arsenal players even more excited, and the offense became more violent.

In the 28th minute of the game, Walcott easily passed Ibetzberg's cross from the right, but no one in the penalty area grabbed the ball. Li Huan got the ball in the fight with Cesc Fabregas, Li Huan also knocked Cesc Fabregas to the ground with his body.

Gibbs, who had assisted to the right side of Hoffenheim's penalty area, did not retreat. Instead, he wanted to foul near the opponent's penalty area to block the opponent's counterattack.

Li Huan has played as a guard for so many years, but he still can't understand Gibbs' intentions. Before Gibbs came, he passed the ball to Obasi, wanting to play two-on-one with Obasi.

At this time, Nasri also saw that the situation was a bit dangerous, and kicked Obasi from the back, but at the same time Obasi was kicked, the ball was also passed out. The referee saw Nasri's foul, but He didn't blow the whistle, he was watching to see if Li Huan could get the ball.

Li Huan saw that Obasi was fouled, but he didn't stop. He bypassed Gibbs from the sideline and quickly grabbed the ball. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain and stood up.

After Li Huan passed Gibbs, the road ahead was smooth. Not only was there no one on the side, but there were only the opponent's two central defenders in the middle. This was definitely a great opportunity for a counterattack.Li Huan kicked the ball forward for more than ten meters. He used all his strength and ran forward at the fastest speed. At this moment, he only had eyes on the opponent's goal.

After being dodged by Li Huan, Gibbs found that the referee hadn't blown his whistle. Knowing something was wrong, he turned around and ran back desperately. He had exerted all his strength, but the distance between him and Li Huan But it is getting farther and farther away, and it is absolutely impossible to catch up.

At this moment, the stands also became quiet. The Emirates Stadium was silent, and the heavy and rapid breathing disappeared. It was obvious that the fans held their breath nervously.

Wenger also clenched his fists and stood up from the coach's bench.Lannick also stood up.The substitute players on both sides also bowed and poked their heads out from the bench, watching the court nervously.

Everyone's hearts are hanging.They only had eyes for the defender who was galloping forward like the wind.

The two central defenders, Toure and Sylvester, were still running back. Only Walcott was chasing back from Hoffenheim's frontcourt. Except for the little tiger, everyone else knew that their running was for nothing, and so on. They ran back, and the cucumber dishes were cold.

Only Van Nistelrooy, who was closest to the opponent's goal, was the only one that Hoffenheim went to outflank, but Van Nistelrooy also knew that he had no time to arrive. It was another excellent scoring opportunity, but now Li Huan can only do it alone.

1 second. . . . . 2 seconds. . . . 3 seconds. . . . 4 seconds. . . . . .

It only took 4 seconds!Li Huan ran from the right side of his penalty area to the left side of his opponent's penalty area!What an amazing speed!

When Li Huan was running, he already understood that Fan Ni could not help him, and he could only rely on himself.So when running, Li Huan did not run in a straight line, but in a slanted line. He ran towards the restricted area. When he saw that he was at the same level as the restricted area line, Li Huan immediately turned the ball inward and walked towards the middle, looking for Chance of a long shot.

Sylvester has already started to meet the sidewalk, and there is no one on the sidewalk at the moment, so he has to stop Li Huan.

When Li Huan saw Sylvester approaching, he immediately smashed the ball towards the bottom line. If Sylvester did not follow him, he would shoot directly. Walk.

French defender Sylvester has a French romantic fantasy, and his defense is not the most stable one, not to mention that he is extremely nervous at the moment. Seeing Li Huan walking towards the bottom line, he immediately followed.

When Li Huan saw that Sylvester changed his center of gravity, he immediately dunked the ball back. Li Huan kicked too fast, shaking Sylvester, who was changing his direction and center of gravity, and fell to the grass. superior.

Seeing Sylvester fell to the ground so easily by Li Huanhuang, Wenger stomped his feet angrily.Wish I could get Sylvester up and ask him why he's so stupid.

Li Huan did not expect to knock Sylvester down. He was about to shoot, but then he changed his mind and rushed into the penalty area from behind Sylvester.

Goalkeeper Fabianski had already come to the left side. Seeing Sylvester fall, he attacked directly without hesitation. He knew that standing in the goal and waiting for Li Huan to shoot was more dangerous.

Another central defender, Toure, slid over from four or five meters away when Li Huan was walking towards the penalty area. Although he knew it was useless, he could only do some defensive moves.

When there was a defender climbing up on the right side, a goalkeeper rushing towards him in front of him, and a defender shoveling over on the left side, Li Huan showed a triumphant smile. As soon as he rubbed it, the ball flew over the head of goalkeeper Fabianski.

Fabianski was staggered by Li Huan's shock, and immediately saw Li Huan rubbing the ball. Fabianski stretched out his hand to hit the ball in embarrassment. He was too close, and he didn't have time to jump up. , He could barely reach out and hit the ball, but his hand didn't touch the ball.The ball flew lightly into the net.

1:0, Hoffenheim lead away.

"Goal! Goal! Li Huan! A classic counterattack, a deadly counterattack, a great counterattack. Li Huan broke down the entire defense line of the Gunners alone. No one can keep up with his speed. West was thrown on his back, and Fabianski was at a loss. With lightning speed and a light blow, Li Huan pushed Arsenal to hell... ..." The commentator on the imperial platform shouted frantically, at this moment he seemed to see Hoffenheim's promotion.

Rangnick, assistant coaches, and substitute players all rushed out.

The Hoffenheim fans in the stands all jumped up.

The Hoffenheim players in the field rushed towards the goal hero who ran to the sidelines.

The Hoffenheim fans in front of the TV forgot to shout loudly late at night
. . . . . . . . .

No one from Hoffenheim can control their excitement at the moment.

6 Arsenal fans let out the same sigh, disappointment, unspeakable disappointment. Now Arsenal must score three goals if they want to advance. Judging from the current performance of both sides on the field, the possibility is very small.

Wenger, with a sharp mouth, a monkey cheek and a hooked nose, sat heavily on the seat. His heart was extremely heavy. At this moment, he had a bad feeling. This was the feeling of failure, just like the night of the Champions League final three years ago.

The guest commentator Adams didn't say a word for a long time after Li Huan scored the goal. After taking a deep breath, the greatest Arsenal captain said the first sentence, "Damn it, this is still a defender. ?"

"I've only retired for less than ten years. Could it be that the technique of a defender is better than that of a forward midfielder? He scores more goals than a forward, faster than a forward, and better in technique than a midfielder. Why should such a person be a defender? Really... ...Really...isn't this a waste?"

"Young, or young to blame. Gibbs still needs to hone his guard position for a few more years. Today should be a day for him to learn. Facing such a guard, he is so careless in defense. Isn't that true? Deliberately let the opponent score.

Now Arseni is really facing difficulties, he must think of a way, otherwise he may face another season where all four players are empty, I hope the players will not give up, don't think about three goals to eliminate opponents, two goals will be enough Let's play overtime with our opponents, and then leave fate to God.Must not give up! "
