Chapter 227 Derby Routine

More than intense, not exciting enough.

This is the best portrayal of the first half of the game between Arsenal and Tottenham. Both sides tried their best, but this "full strength" did not play any wonderful offense.

0:0, this is the score on the field at the end of the first half. The game was fierce, but in fact there were few decent offenses. Coupled with the excellent performance of the goalkeepers of both sides, no one could do anything to the other in the end.

For the 0:0 score, the fans of both sides are very dissatisfied. In fact, the same is true for the players of both sides. Arsenal wants to compete with Chelsea for the top position, and Chelsea, which played one step earlier, has already won Aston Villa 3:0.

As for Tottenham, they naturally want to break their past fate. When Manchester City was not acquired by a local tycoon in the Middle East, Tottenham was the most promising team to break the traditional semi-finals of the Premier League. Unfortunately, Manchester City is now one step ahead, but Tottenham still wants to get a share of it.

"We strengthened our offense in the second half," Wenger said very derby. After all, as the head coach of Arsenal for so many years, Wenger knows exactly what the North London derby represents.

Derby does not require tactics, just remember one point is enough to put the opponent down, which is why derby is generally not very exciting.

Just like the first half, there was more than enough intensity, but not enough excitement.

Neither side made any adjustments during the halftime break, but soon Arsenal would be forced to make a second adjustment of the game because another Arsenal player was injured.

Ramsey, less than 2 minutes into the second half, Ramsey shoveled Adebayor, but Ramsey himself was injured.

Of course, Ramsey didn't go to the person, and he didn't even kick the person. When Ramsey got up from the ground, he suddenly felt a pain.

"I was injured again. It turns out that no players in the Arsenal were injured in the fifth round to stay in this game." Arsenal injured six players in the sixth round of the league. For Arteta, he was injured twice. The Arsenal is really full of injuries.

"Arsenal's start to this season was a bit miserable." This can no longer be described as a little bit, it should be said to be very miserable. Looking at the major European leagues this season, there is really no team that is as miserable as Arsenal.

"Cazorla replaced Ramsey, and Arsenal lost the second substitution in the game." Losing two substitutions in the 7th and [-]th minutes of the game is not a good thing for Arsenal.

The derby is already fierce and the players are easy to get ahead. In this case, the chance of getting a card for a foul is greatly increased. This was proved in the first half.

What's more, Arsenal is not yet a yellow card problem. One was injured in the first half, and another was injured at the beginning of the second half. With the current probability, someone might be injured later.

The game restarted, Cazorla completed a shot just after coming off the bench, Chamberlain Cazorla crossed positions, Cazorla appeared on the wing, Chamberlain made a diagonal pass, Cazorla directly kicked a long shot and hit the outside of the post.

Cazorla's kick really almost gave Arsenal the lead, but a miss is a miss, and then Tottenham took a goal kick and the ball was headed by Koscielny.

Oxlade-Chamberlain and Wilshere combined to create a chance for Griezmann, the Frenchman heading into the box from the other side and Wilshere sending a cross.

"Loris~~~Tottenham's goalkeeper performed very well in this game. Griezmann's shot was shot from a very good angle but it was saved by him." Griezmann's strong shot went straight to the lower left corner.

It was still Arsenal. In 2 minutes, Arsenal scored again in the hinterland of Tottenham. This time it was the turn of another player coming off the bench, Flamini shot a long shot from outside the penalty area.

France's long-range shots are also of a high level, but they just can't break through the goals of their compatriots. It is said that there are as many as five French international players on both sides in this game, and some of them cannot make it to the field due to injuries. Otherwise, they can really make up half of the French team.

Although everyone is a compatriot, there is definitely no so-called compatriot friendship when they meet in the league. If they can't hold back their black feet, it is already in the affection of compatriots.

Arsenal's strength during this period did not bring a real threat to Tottenham's goal. On the contrary, Tottenham focused on a counterattack opportunity and played a very threatening attack.

As soon as Flamini crossed the midfield with the ball, he was intercepted. Eriksson's retreat double-teamed only allowed Flamini to hand over the ball obediently, and Eriksson immediately distributed the ball to Lamela.

The Argentine pierced Arsenal's defense with a diagonal pass from the ribs. On the other side, the Belgian Chadley rushed into the penalty area at high speed and rushed to the ball sent by Lamela into the Arsenal penalty area.

Chadley's speed is very fast, but it can be faster than the Arsenal goalkeeper. When Chadley rushed over, Li Shou had also started. Compared with Chadley, Li Shou was closer to the ball.

"Relief~~~ Without Lee's decisive attack, Tottenham's attack is likely to break the deadlock." If Chadley catches up with the ball, he will face the goalkeeper. In this case, the chance of scoring will become infinite.

Of course, this is against an ordinary goalkeeper. If it is against Li Shou, the result is still unknown, but Li Shou obviously does not want to take this risk.

Now Li Shou no longer needs to take risks to prove himself, he now needs to make the most correct choice to minimize the danger.

However, the matter was not over. Although the ball was pinned down by Li Shou, Chadley did not stop because of this. Belgium rushed to Li Shou's side, and then kicked the ball pinned down by Li Shou.

Faced with Chadley's behavior, Li Shou was stunned for a second, then jumped up and grabbed the ball with both hands and threw it at Chadley's face.

Immediately there was a scream, and the Belgian fell straight down. This was not a Belgian pretending, but that he was really knocked unconscious by Li Shou, and even the entire bridge of his nose collapsed, which shows how powerful Li Shou is.

Although the change came suddenly, the players on both sides reacted quickly. Mertesacker and Koscielny rushed over to protect Li Shou immediately, but they were pushed away by Li Shou.

The Tottenham players also rushed forward immediately, but when they saw the tragic situation of the Belgian, they wisely gave up their plan to trouble Li Shou.

Not to mention the two strong men around Li Shou, just seeing Li Shou knocking Chadley unconscious with a football, you should weigh whether you can deal with Li Shou.

Besides, the referee is not a vegetarian. Although Oliver is young and is the youngest referee in the Premier League this season, his reaction is not unpleasant. He rushed to Li Shou immediately and drew out a red card.
