Chapter 110 Where is the Counterattack?
Where is the counterattack in Chapter 1?
The Arsenal players who were taken aback by Luton's attack quickly launched a counterattack.

They also realized that if Luton were lucky enough to score a goal, their lead would be equalized immediately.Arsenal players will not allow this to happen!
So they quickly launched a ferocious attack, hoping to score the second goal of the game!

Facing Arsenal's offensive, Luton still used their usual defensive methods to deal with their opponents. The dense formation made it difficult for Arsenal to score goals in the middle.

After Hassan Ali left the field, Fabregas came alive again. He stepped on the ball in the middle circle and saw a dense crowd in front of him. From his perspective, it seemed that no matter where he was, Luton always had more players than Arsenal.

But Cesc Fabregas is a genius after all, and genius is that he can always find gaps that ordinary people can't find.

He picked the ball up, over the heads of Luton's midfield defenders, and found Arshavin, who had opened up space on the wing.

Luton's defense in the middle is very dense, while the wing is relatively empty.

Arshavin stopped the ball steadily, but he didn't have the space to continue to break through the middle. Maybe he could choose to go to the bottom, but after the bottom, he still had to pass the ball back to the middle, allowing the striker or other midfielders to advance to complete the fatal blow.

But Arshavin looked at the dense crowd in the penalty area and the two Luton defenders standing in front of him, one on the left and one on the right.

Arshavin didn't know their names. For the Russian star, such an opponent was not worth remembering.

Either way, the two were stuck in front of him, making the cross difficult.

There is no chance of a low pass, because Luton's defenders are densely positioned in the penalty area, basically blocking all the lines of the low pass.

So Arshavin tried a high-altitude shot to find Adebayo's head.

Adebayor looked at the ball coming in the air, and first tried to squeeze Matt Schmidt away, but Matt Schmidt didn't move at all, but Adebayor was hit and his center of gravity was a little unstable.

So the ball was ejected by Matt again.

Wenger watched anxiously off the court, he really wanted to scold Adebayor if he had a brain problem.

"Run!!! Run!!!" Wenger shouted at Adebayor on the field.

"He can't keep up with you!!!"

After shouting, Wenger angrily sat back on the coach's bench.

Adebayor went head-to-head with Matt. Isn't this using his own shortcomings to attack others' strengths?When Adebayor faced Matt, his advantages lay in his feet, his experience as a center forward, and his running skills.

These things are things that Matt, a stupid big man, can't keep up with Adebayor.

But Adebayor didn't quite hear what Wenger was saying, and instead he fought Matt.

For Adebayor, he is just a player in the second division. He actually fell into a disadvantage in header and physical confrontation?
This matter should be found no matter what.

So then Matt continued to head the ball over Adebayor's head. Adebayor didn't get any cheap money, but Matt became more and more confident!
Gao Bo was very happy on the sidelines. Arsenal can't get the ground ball into the penalty area now, and the high-altitude ball is controlled by Luton. Now in terms of defense, Luton has finally stabilized temporarily.

Gao Bo is very satisfied with Matt's performance in this game.

At least in the high-altitude ball defense in the penalty area, Matt did a good job, but unfortunately his footwork is still too rough, otherwise, Gao Bo even wants to transform Matt into a header-enhanced version of Fellaini
But Arsenal are still leading the offense now, and as Arsenal press more and more, their offensive is getting more and more fierce!

Especially the threat of Van Persie has gradually increased!

Van Persie's range of activities is very large, which makes it difficult for the teenager Jeffrey who is marking him to keep up with the rhythm.

This is actually normal, Jeffrey is completely crushed by Van Persie in terms of strength, and Gao Bo is not surprised by this.

In the 7th minute of the game, Van Persie turned around and volleyed after receiving the ball at the top of the penalty area! !
The football was passed through the dense crowd in the penalty area, which was almost the only possible line to hit the goal without hitting other players, and it was found by Van Persie.

Gao Bo's heart tightened, he almost thought that his team was about to lose the second goal.
But the post saved Luton! !

Van Persie's shot hit the post and went out of the baseline! !
"Oh almost. Van Persie can help Arsenal secure the victory!!!" Letkinson said on the commentary booth, "But the current situation is also very unfavorable for Luton. Now they are one goal behind, and in terms of offense, Luton is still suppressed by Arsenal. Perhaps the only good news for Luton is that they have not conceded a second goal."

The shot was rejected by the goal post, which made Van Persie very regretful, but inspired by this attack, Arsenal's attack became more ferocious.

In the 9th minute of the game, Arshavin shot from a small angle in the penalty area after a successful breakthrough from the wing and was blocked by the goalkeeper from the bottom line.After the subsequent corner kick was taken, Van Persie shook his head in front of the goal, and the football flew out against the far post
The Arsenal fans in the stands cheered one after another, and the [-] Luton fans on the scene were heartbroken. It seemed that Luton might lose a second goal at any time!

"You see, Xiao Liu, a dark horse is a dark horse after all!!" Zhang Xing, a reporter in the media seat, seemed to understand clearly, "This is the end of Gao Bo's FA Cup!"

Xiao Liu frowned, and he looked at the situation on the court with some concern.He supports Gao Bo. After all, he is a young man just out of society. He is high-spirited and has not yet reached the stage of being so cynical as the middle-aged man next to him.
In fact, Gao Bo was also worried, but what he was looking at was Arsenal's backcourt!

Unknowingly, except for the goalkeeper, almost all of Arsenal's players overwhelmed halftime! !

In Arsenal's half, there are dozens of meters of space for Luton to counterattack! ! !Gao Bo quietly cast his gaze there, as if he was afraid that Arsenal would react and fill it up again.

But the prerequisite for a counterattack is to defend against Arsenal's offense first.

Van Persie's post is a warning! !

This means that Luton's defense is slowly unable to withstand such a fierce offensive, and the only way to reverse the situation is to have a quick counterattack to suppress Arsenal's increasingly fierce offensive.
When will the counterattack come? No one knows! !

Wenger also saw the gap in Arsenal's backcourt, but he is also betting! !Bet on Arsenal scoring the second goal first! !

Judging from the scene of the game, Arsenal are almost dismantling Luton's defensive system.

Although Adebayor can't get a bargain from Matt's head, Luton may not have much advantage in other offensive points, and with Arsenal's two full-backs pressing up, they are almost used as wingers!This allowed Arsenal to have more offensive numbers, which made Luton's defense more difficult.

When Gao Bo was a little anxious, in the 603rd minute of the game, Van Persie wanted to copy his previous shot at the top of the penalty area, but Kanter had already taken precautions at this time.

As soon as Van Persie swung his right foot, Kanter rushed up and shoveled the ball away.

Gao Bo's muscles tensed up, but he didn't cry out.

Counterattack
Luton's counterattack is coming! !
