Football's hand covers the sky

Chapter 257 Performance in the Second Half (Two in One)

"Arsenal must make adjustments in the midfield, otherwise it may be difficult to win this game." Although Arsenal had a great advantage throughout the first half, it could even be said that they were playing against Manchester United, but these advantages were still unable to be converted into goals.

After Angel Di Maria's shot went wide, Arsenal soon scored into Manchester City's penalty area, and Welbeck got another good chance.

As the saying goes, you can't do it again, but Welbeck has reached a heinous point in wasting opportunities. If you change players~~~ Sorry, there is no if in this world.

After seeing Welbeck wasting another chance, Wenger on the sidelines turned livid. At the same time, Wenger asked Giroud and Podolski to warm up on the sidelines. Obviously, Wenger already wanted to change players at halftime.

In such an important game as today, it is rare to make adjustments in the midfield, but Welbeck's performance in the first half was really horrible.

It was also because Arsenal had such an advantage in the first half that Li Shou, as the goalkeeper, did not perform much, so throughout the first half, Li Shou had to exercise himself to maintain his body heat.

Arsenal needed to make adjustments at the halftime break. In fact, Manchester United also needed Van Gaal to do something in the midfield. Arsenal did not score when they gained momentum, but Manchester United had very few chances to shoot.

..........................................

"Olivier, you replaced Daniel in the second half." Wenger finally made the decision to substitute. Although the temperature once considered Welbeck's mood, Wenger finally chose to win the game.

Chelsea, who played a day earlier, had already won West Brom 2-0 at home. In this case, Arsenal must win.

Of course, Welbeck was upset about being replaced by the midfielder, but he didn't say anything. After all, he knew the state of the first half. Although he felt that he could adjust in the second half, it was useless for him to say anything after the head coach had already made a decision.

Arsenal have made personnel adjustments, but Manchester United have not made any changes, but even so, Manchester United is a different team in the second half than in the first half.

After the restart of the second half, Manchester United completed a shot immediately, Rooney combined with Van Persie, the Dutch striker was once the banner player of Arsenal.

But Van Persie could not see the hope of winning the championship at Arsenal. In order to realize his dream of being a champion, Van Persie resolutely left and joined Manchester United.

In fact, Van Persie's decision is very similar to the King of Highbury who once joined Barcelona. Although Henry has won the Premier League championship, he has never been able to touch the Champions League trophy.

No, Arsenal almost touched it once upon a time, but it was a pity that they fell at the feet of Barcelona in the final. Perhaps because of this, Henry chose to go to Barcelona, ​​and finally succeeded in realizing his dream, and then left for the American Major League.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with players leaving in pursuit of honor. What players are after, honor and money, are the so-called fame and fortune.

For money, as long as you perform well, you can definitely get a satisfactory salary, but if you want to get honors, you not only need to be outstanding yourself, but also your teammates. After all, not everyone is Maradona, who can carry the team forward on his own.

But to be honest, Li Shou seems to be doing such a thing now. Doesn't the current Arsenal only rely on Li Shou's own strength to achieve their current results.

...........................................

"Van Persie, the former Arsenal player will complete the first shot of the game." As Manchester United's starting striker, Van Persie only completed the first shot in the second half, which shows how miserable Manchester United was in the first half.

"However, Van Persie's shot did not help Manchester United score." Although there was no goal, Manchester United's offense was not over yet, because the ball was pushed out of the baseline by Li Shou, so the quality of Van Persie's shot was still good.

The corner kick was also taken by Van Persie, and Smalling reached the first spot. Li Shou originally wanted to attack, but Monreal blocked in front of Li Shou.

Smalling's header didn't pose any threat. It missed the baseline and turned from defense to offense. Li Shou passed the ball to Ramsey, who found Giroud with a kick.

Giroud, who has been away from the court for a few months, may be in an average state, but his physical fitness is there, the header is ferried, and the ball comes to the feet of Giroud's compatriot Griezmann.

After receiving the pass, Griezmann dunked Smalling, and then went straight into the Manchester United penalty area, only to find Carrick's interception, and finally Griezmann forced his foot wide.

Immediately, Manchester United once again entered Arsenal's penalty area, and Ashley Young, who replaced Luke Shaw, advanced at high speed, and was cleared by Li Shou in a pass sent from the side of the penalty area.

To be honest, the quality of Ashley Young's cross was very average. Li Shou not only made an easy clearance, but also created a chance for Arsenal to counterattack.

The ball blasted by Li Shou came to Wilshere's feet, and the latter passed it diagonally to Sanchez on the wing. After breaking through the wing, Sanchez cut into the penalty area and hit the near corner and was saved by De Gea.

But judging from the current situation, De Gea's performance has completely surpassed Li Shou, but this is not because Li Shou's performance is worse than De Gea, but because Li Shou has no chance to perform.

Turning from defense to offense, De Gea's ball fell at the feet of Ashley Young. The latter did not pass the ball, but took the ball along the wing and rushed towards Arsenal's half again, and rushed all the way to the side of the penalty area.

The cross, but this time Ashley Young did not play a high ball, but a low pass, and the target of Ashley Young's cross was not Van Persie in the middle of the penalty area, but Valencia at the back point.

Li Shou did not choose to attack, because Ashley Young's cross was not suitable for attacking, and the ball came to the back point as scheduled. At this time, Valencia and Gibson rushed towards the ball together, and Gibson finally touched the ball before Valencia, but Gibson's kick did not clear the siege, but flew towards the goal.

"Own goal~~~God~~~ Manchester United is going to score" The ball actually hit Gibson's outstretched foot and turned to fly towards Arsenal's goal.

"No~~~ The ball didn't go in." At the moment when the ball was about to fly into the goal, a big hand that shouldn't have appeared appeared in front of the ball, thus changing the trajectory of the ball's flight.

"Li~~~It's Li~~~ He was able to react in such a situation. He saved the own goal kicked by his teammate." After the ball changed its trajectory, Li Shou also fell from midair.

"An incredible save~~~A rare save, God~~~Li can actually save the Arsenal team and the goal he was guarding in this situation." The stands at the Emirates Stadium were extremely quiet when they saw Li Shou make this save, because they all kept their faces stunned.

In fact, it was not only the fans who were stunned, but also the two head coaches on the sidelines. Van Gaal was shocked with a face of disbelief, and Wenger had a face of disbelief with a hint of surprise.

"Has any goalkeeper in world football ever made such a save?" Paul Merson couldn't help asking.

"I don't know, but one thing I can be sure of is that in my commentary career, I have never seen such a save," Andy Gray replied.

"A save that is enough to go down in history" On the field, Li Shou, who fell from his mouth, has not yet got up, because he is being crushed by his teammates, especially Gibson, who kicked the own goal, is hugging Li Shou at this moment and constantly saying some words of thanks.

"Although Li didn't have a chance to perform in the first half, he can become the most franchised goalkeeper this round just because of this save." As time passed, everyone finally realized it.

Wenger couldn't help asking himself in his heart, "Did I buy a monster back?"

On the other side, Van Gaal looked at Wenger enviously. Although De Gea is also a top goalkeeper, judging from Li Shou's performance after joining Arsenal, De Gea is really not as good as him.

And in the stands of the Emirates Stadium, there was only one voice left at this moment, "Lee~~Lee~~Lee."

At the same time, all the fans watching the game all over the world, especially in China, couldn't help shouting "Li Shou is awesome" again.

...................................................

"Wow~~~ Li Shouxi seems to have made a great save." Seeing that nearly 6 people went crazy for Li Shou, the two women from South Korea were shocked.

Although this was not their first time watching a football match, this moment deeply shocked them.

"Oni, now I know why Senior Son Yejin fell in love with Li Shouxi." Ming Zhien looked at Li Shou who was getting up from the lawn.

"Oh mo~~~ Could it be that Zhien is also tempted by us?" The woman called Oni glanced at Zhien beside her, and found that Zhien's eyes were always on the court at this moment.

"Hey, what's the use of being tempted, everyone has girlfriends." In front of his very close sister, naturally there is nothing impossible to say.

"It doesn't matter, it's just dating and not getting married, maybe they will break up tomorrow." The two women started a new round of biting their ears.

On the court, Li Shouze clamped Gibson with his arms. If Gibson hadn't kicked this own goal and rushed towards him for the first time, he wouldn't have been pressed by his teammates for so long.

Of course, Li Shou didn't blame Gibson, even though Li Shou was taking revenge on Gibson at the same time, he was also telling Gibson not to take the own goal just now to heart and let him focus on the next game.

The game restarted and Manchester United took another corner kick, but this time Manchester United chose a tactical corner kick. Van Persie sent the ball to Valencia. The latter sent a kick to Carrick outside the penalty area.

Li Shou took a goal kick, but Li Shou did not expect that his goal kick would cause injuries to his teammates. Wilshere received a pass from Arteta and rushed into the Manchester United half, but was pressed by Fellaini. As a result, Wilshere fell to the ground in pain.

In fact, Fellaini's movements are not big, but the Belgian is much stronger than Wilshere. Besides, injuries on the court also depend on luck and the physical condition of the players themselves.

Wilshere's injury forced Wenger to use his second substitution of the game, Cazorla on for Wilshere, and Arsenal fired a shot immediately after the restart.

Cazorla, who just came off the bench, got a long-range shot. Manchester United's defense line is actually similar to Arsenal. The injured Giroud once again beat the defensive player to hit back with a header, and Cazorla blasted a long-range shot from the top of the arc.

"De Gea~~~Manchester United's goalkeeper actually performed very well in this game, but after Lee made that save, he looked a bit bleak." Andy Gray looked at De Gea who blocked Arsenal's shot again.

No.608 minutes, Manchester United also made the first substitution of the game, and it was also a forced substitution. Ashley Young completed another cross. Here Li Shou chose to attack, but Manchester United striker Van Persie was unwilling to give up this opportunity.

Under the circumstances that no one is willing to give up, the collision between the two is inevitable, and Van Persie's injury-prone physique can not be compared with Li Shou. The result is that Van Persie is injured, but Van Persie's injury is not serious, but this game cannot be continued.

Regarding this collision, the referee didn't say anything. After all, neither of them was rushing for others. Both Li Shou and Van Persie knew this, and Van Persie naturally wouldn't blame Li Shou.

Then the face was full of embarrassment. Although Manchester United spent a lot of money this summer, in fact, there are not many Manchester United strikers. With Falcao injured, only teenager Wilson was sitting on the bench for this game.

In fact, this teenager is full of Welbeck's shadow. He is an out-and-out Manchester United youth training, and it has also been trumpeted by many media as the future of Manchester United and England.

Even if Van Persie was injured and replaced, Arsenal fans still booed the former core away. This is the fans, and love and hate are often so direct.

The game restarted, and Li Shou took another goal kick. After a few passes, the ball came to Sanchez again, but this time Sanchez did not choose to continue along the sidewalk, but moved laterally to the center to cooperate with Ramsey.

In order to stop Arsenal's offensive, he chose to foul, and then gave Arsenal a free kick in a very good position.

At this time, Li Shou, who was standing in front of Arsenal's gate, moved. With the time already at 10 minutes, even if Li Shou didn't move, Wenger would still let Li Shou move.

After all, there are not only free kick opportunities in a good position, sometimes there are not two in the whole game, so with only 10 minutes left, this opportunity must be seized.

So when he got the free kick, Li Shou immediately looked at Wenger on the sidelines. The master and apprentice obviously wanted to go together. Wenger was also looking at Li Shou at this time, and then Li Shou moved.

"Oh~~~ Li left the goal, it seems that he is going to take this free kick," Andy Gray shouted immediately.

"Li Shou has taken three free kicks so far. He took one and scored one goal in Monaco last season. The remaining two times were after joining Arsenal this season, and both were in the UEFA Champions League group stage. So this is the first time Li Shou has taken free kicks in the league." Although many fans know the information about Li Shou taking free kicks, Zhan Jun still gave fans a wave of science.

"This is the first time that Li took a free kick in the league. Can he continue his 100% goal success rate in the Champions League group stage?" Under everyone's expectations, Li Shou took the ball from Sanchez.
