Jagged Wings

Chapter 172
After discussing for a while, the staff came to remind that 15 minutes was up and it was time to play.Captain Gilberto greeted everyone and walked out of the locker room one after another.

The players walked out of the tunnel one after another, and those who went up first stood on the field and waited. Reyes took this opportunity to have a private talk with Torres.

Torres has not scored in more than a dozen consecutive games. There are some voices of doubt from the outside world, thinking that Torres is not in good condition now, and the magic is no longer.

"Fernando, pay attention to your running position. Run to the space, especially when we counterattack, as long as you have a chance!"

Torres was a little worried: "I'm afraid I'm not in good shape and I'm going to waste opportunities..."

"It's okay, the most basic thing for a shooter is to have confidence, have you forgotten?" Reyes smiled and looked at Torres: "Sometimes you don't need a good chance, as long as you think you can shoot, then go for it! "

"But……"

Reyes cut him off: "You think you can't come?"

Torres looked up: "Then pass the ball!"

Reyes patted him on the shoulder: "Let's play!"

"Arsenal obviously strengthened their offense in the second half... Wow! Torres' long shot was only a little short! Such an opportunity, he should pass it to someone in a better position!"

"Oh! Oh!! Reyes! He forcibly overtook another car at a very fast speed! He entered the penalty area and penetrated in! He penetrated in! He shot!!" The commentator was very passionate!
The PSV goalkeeper struggled to save Reyes' shot!

After Rosicky was replaced, the team's situation really improved a lot. A player who can control the ball, organize the ball and score goals was added in the midfield, which put a lot of pressure on Eindhoven's defense.

Except for Kone who was cruising in the frontcourt, the other nine players on the field all retracted into the penalty area and completely defended.

With Reyes, Rosicky, and Hleb crossing in the frontcourt, Fabregas hid behind the three and used his precise mid-length pass to dispatch.And in defense, Fabregas can devote more energy.

Van Persie is gone, and Torres is also troubled by the scoring shortage. Adebayor and Reyes have become the focus of Eindhoven.Arsenal's offense has been weak recently, so Eindhoven is on defense, as long as they keep an eye on a few important tasks, everything will be OK!
It can be seen that the head coach of Eindhoven has also studied Arsenal, so no matter where Reyes is in this game, when he receives the ball, an Eindhoven player will immediately push him up and prevent him Turning around easily, despite this, Reyes still found several opportunities and formed a breakthrough.

So PSV's head coach pointed at Reyes off the court and yelled: "Keep an eye on him! Don't give him such a chance!"

Eindhoven's entire defense turned its attention to Reyes, and Torres, known as "the most expensive signing in Arsenal's history", has long been forgotten by the people of Eindhoven!
What a power... Torres shrugged when he saw that the person closest to him was also three meters away.

Then he looked back, Arsenal were holding the ball in the backcourt, but the ball hadn't reached Reyes' feet.In the second half, Cesc Fabregas retreated, and the three central midfielders had good footwork, and they took turns to organize the attack!
Torres looked up, he had to prepare to move.

He looked at Adebayor, the Togolese monster who was trying to get rid of PSV's defense.Eindhoven's defenders are like a group of hunting dogs with a keen sense of smell. No matter where Adebayor goes, there will be at least one Eindhoven player by his side, paying close attention to his movements.

Thanks to Adebayor's frequent running and the cross-transposition of the three forwards, there was a gap in Torres' eyes in PSV's defense line-on the left side of PSV's penalty area, Reyes will lead in the next moment. As the defender leaves the area, there will be some gaps here!
Thinking of this, Torres looked back, Reyes had already got the ball, and after playing a two-for-one with Rosicky on the wing, he had come to the middle!
Soon to be in Reyes' range!

The people in Eindhoven were in a panic, and three people rushed forward at the same time!

Reyes was not greedy, and sent a through pass, and Torres received the ball behind PSV's defense!

"1V3! What is Reyes going to do... Oh, he passed the ball!"

"Torres? His condition is not very good!"

The commentator frowned, feeling that Reyes had wasted an opportunity!
Although it is not the focus of marking, he is also the sharp knife of the opponent after all. As soon as Reyes passed the ball, an Eindhoven player immediately ran up, ready to defend Torres!
How could they, who are defensive first, make the mistake of easily leaving the opponent open?
But this kind of supplementary defense is, after all, a kind of remedy after a dead sheep, that person rushed a little fiercely!
Torres fully demonstrated the delicate footwork of a Spanish player. He unloaded the ball and then led the ball forward. While stopping the ball, he also passed the opponent by the way!

After Torres stopped the ball, he was already on the edge of the penalty area, and the PSV defenders were shocked and were chasing back.

"The position is a bit off, he should hit the ball back, Hleb has already outflanked from the far end!" said the commentator.

In the eyes of ordinary people, such a position is already considered a very partial position. If you want to shoot, with Torres' current state, I am afraid it will be difficult to do it!

Eindhoven goalkeeper Gomez is slightly in the center and is ready to intercept Torres' cross.

Torres didn't look at him, but stopped the ball, observed the goal position and the opponent's movement, and had three seconds to think!
Torres swung his legs and made a forward stance with the ball, but when the football flew out, it became a light lob!

Facing the football flying high above his head, Gomez had no choice but to turn his head and watch the football fall into the empty goal behind him.

Then the football dropped suddenly, hit the far post and bounced into the goal!

"Spoons - BEAUTIFUL! Goal in! BEAUTIFUL!! Torres scored! He finally broke his [-]-match drought! Assist from Reyes!"

At that moment, the Philips Stadium, which was still noisy just now, fell into silence, and then the cheers of the Arsenal fans rang out.

"Arsenal! Arsenal! Arsenal!!"

After the goal, Torres raised his index finger at the PSV fans in the stands and made a "silence" gesture.Of course, the fans of Eindhoven can't really shut up, so what Torres can only get are angry curses from the fans of Eindhoven.Torres turned and ran back to the pitch after he had finished provoking the PSV fans, pointing his hands at Reyes, who was running toward him, waiting for a hug.

When he was about to run, Reyes jumped up and threw himself directly into Torres' arms.The other teammates also swarmed up and surrounded the two of them.

"Arsenal equalized! Torres also broke the scoring drought. Is there anything more perfect than this?"

"Torres scored his No.12 goals this season! When Henry was reimbursed for the season, Mr. 4000 million finally broke out!"

"We will not feel lost for Van Persie's departure, because this has activated the offensive desire of a super shooter!"

Off the field, Wenger clenched his fists and waved vigorously when he saw the players celebrating their goals.His substitutions had a very good effect. Being able to equalize the score at the beginning of the second half definitely hit the opponent's momentum greatly!
Eindhoven, who was equalized, was a little flustered. The left back kicked his ankle too hard in a clearance.

Eindhoven had to make a passive substitution, and the next one on the stage was a Chinese——Sun Xiang!
