Chapter 109 Matt's Role

Chapter 1 The Role of Matt

The soft lights of the Wembley Rainbow Bridge sprinkled evenly on every leaf of the stadium turf, and players from both sides ran into the stadium under the light!

Nearly 9 fans cheered, and the second half of the game is about to begin!
Adam and Matt stood on the sidelines. One of them was 190 centimeters, and the other had grown to 170 centimeters, but the height contrast was very strong.

They all have their own shortcomings, but at the same time, their characteristics are also very prominent.

This is why Gao Bo used the two of them as Ball's regular substitutes.

On the football field, there are many players with shortcomings, but as long as there is one very prominent characteristic, such players will often enjoy more than those players with average abilities.

Just like now, Gao Bo wanted to increase his personal breakthrough, so he replaced Adam. He wanted to strengthen aerial work, so Matt could go into battle.

Taking advantage of the start of the second half of the game, Gao Bo put his arms around Matt and explained in detail: "Arsenal may have a lot of crosses from the wing in the second half. I need you to control the high point in the penalty area, return to our penalty area when defending, and rush to their penalty area when attacking!! Just like last time against Manchester City! Do you understand? Matt!"

It was a little uncomfortable for Matt to bend over, but in order to take care of the head coach's height, he still tried to bend down and listen. When Gao Bo finished speaking, he nodded sharply.

"I see, boss!"

Gao Bo patted Matt on the back: "Focus!! Matt, you must stay focused on the court!!!"

At this point the fourth official had already held up the sign for a substitution.

"Before the start of the second half, Luton is going to make a substitution! No. 11 Adam came on the field, he replaced No. 19 Lewis Emmanuel, and No. 32 Matt Schmidt replaced No. [-] Hassan Ali!!"

At this time, the two players to be replaced were already sitting on the bench, so the fourth official's sign was raised, and the two immediately got the referee's permission and ran into the field.

Wenger was sitting on the coach's bench, and he had basically anticipated Luton's substitution before the end of the first half.

Do you want to put on a high center forward to attack?

Wenger smiled slightly, young people are impulsive
If Luton presses up to attack, their formation is bound to be up, and behind them will be the grassland where the Arsenal strikers are galloping.

There is basically no suspense in this game!

Wenger sat on the coach's bench and thought, he looked at Gao Bo standing on the sideline with some pity.

To be honest, Wenger appreciates Gao Bo's refreshing tactical system in Luton.

The overall dense formation, coordinated movement, whether it is pressing the offense or retreating to the defense, or the frontcourt pressing, is the overall cooperation of the team. This is a team that is very good at accumulating absolute numerical advantages locally to defeat the opponent.

If the strength gap between the two players is not so big, it will not be easy for Arsenal to beat such a well-trained team
But it's a pity, it's a pity, Wenger must get the ticket to the FA Cup final.

Arsenal has not won a championship for four years. If they continue to fail to win a championship this year, the pressure on Wenger will be great.
This year is the best chance to beat Luton and reach the final! !

Wenger's eyes are firm!

At the beginning of the second half, things seemed to be as Wenger expected. Luton was indeed looking for an offense after taking the ball.

In fact, Luton also plays a tactic of directly hitting the high ball to let the center grab the point. They still like to hit the frontcourt through cooperation, tear the space and then pass the threatening ball.

Drinkwater and Vardy passed the ball to each other and advanced the ball into the frontcourt, and then Drinkwater passed the ball to Adam White's feet.

The previous pass layout is for this one, creating a one-on-one chance for Adam White on the wing!
This is Luton's hot spot on the wing!
Now Adam White takes the ball one-on-one against Eb, giving the ball to his main foot first and then slowing down.

Gao Bo has already equipped Adam White with all the cards. With the increase of the cards, Gao Bo believes that in a one-on-one situation, Ebrahim is definitely not Adam's opponent.

Sure enough, Adam's very fast fake moves made Eb a little dizzy, and then Adam suddenly cut in from the outside, ready to wipe past Eb.

Eb's head was clear at this time, and Adam must not be allowed to break into the restricted area like this! !
So he reached out and pulled Adam to the ground!

Beep.
The referee's whistle sounded!
foul! !
Gao Bo rushed to the sidelines, he was just about to loudly put pressure on the referee, so that the referee would issue a yellow card or something.

But as soon as he rushed out, he saw that the referee had already taken out the yellow card from his pocket, so Gao Bo immediately applauded vigorously, and even gave the referee a thumbs up.

Now it was Wenger's turn to be dissatisfied, and he also rushed to the sidelines, spreading his hands.

"Is this a yellow card?!"

Wenger questioned loudly.

"Of course it's a yellow card!! How could it not be a yellow card!!!"

After hearing what Wenger said, Gao Bo also said immediately.

"You have nothing to do here, brat!!"

"Hey"

The two coaches are getting closer and closer, and it looks like they are going to face each other directly.

The fourth official immediately ran over and stood between the two of them.

"Pay attention to your position, Mr. Coach!!"

Both head coaches walked away in a huff.

Wenger looked at the situation on the field.

Want to create a threat with a personal breakthrough?

What Wenger is most worried about is that it will be very difficult for Eb if he gets a second yellow card by Adam again.
"Alexander!!! Go help Eman!!!" Wenger greeted Alexander Song loudly from the sidelines.

Song also knew that the opponent had now replaced a side blaster, and it seemed that Eb could not gain the upper hand when confronting the opponent, so he needed to lean more on Ab's side next.

Adam created a free kick for the team on the left side of the front field. Two central defenders came up to participate in the attack. The two forwards, Vardy and Matt Schmidt, were also in the penalty area.

Kevin Keane handles the ball.

When he passes the ball into the penalty area, this point is very good! !
Matt Schmidt headed for the ball! !

The weakness of Arsenal's two central defenders' lack of height has been exposed!Matt Schmidt easily won the scramble for the high ball.

It's just that he headed the ball a little higher.

Even so, it also caused an exclamation from the stands.

The Arsenal fans were full of joy after exclaiming, but for the Luton fans, they immediately gave out a burst of enthusiastic cheers!

This is Luton's closest attack since the start of the game!And it was Luton's initiative to create an offensive, which gave Luton fans hope of an equalizer.

Wenger was also taken aback. To be honest, facing the opponent's attack with a set ball, it was really difficult to guard against. After all, the defense was full of wounded soldiers, so Wenger had to use such a pair of central defenders. In the high-altitude ball defense, Kolo Touré, who is undersized, and the old Sylvesters are difficult to compete with the young Luton center forward.

Still have to score the second goal as soon as possible! !
The emergence of such a dangerous situation made Arsenal realize that a one-to-zero lead is absolutely not safe.

So next, Arsenal seemed to be irritated, and they immediately launched an attack!

This time Wenger discovered the difference in Luton. Their high center Matt Schmidt actually returned to the penalty area to participate in the defense?

what is this?
Swingman?
When Wenger saw Matt Schmidt push Arshavin's cross over the touchline, the French coach's face was contorted.
