Chapter 254 The second half of the performance (two in one)
"Arsenal must make adjustments in the midfield, otherwise it will be difficult to win this game." Although Arsenal had a great advantage in the whole first half, and it can even be said to be pushing Manchester United to play, these advantages could never be converted into goals.
After Di Maria's shot missed, Arsenal soon broke into Manchester City's penalty area, and Verbeck once again got a good opportunity.
As the saying goes, no more, but Velbeck has really reached an outrageous point in wasting opportunities. If there is a player~~~ Sorry, there is no if in this world.
After seeing Welbeck waste his chance again, Wenger's face turned pale, and Wenger asked Giroud and Podolski to warm up on the sidelines. Obviously, Wenger had already thought about substitutions at the halftime break.
There are few adjustments in midfield in such an important game as today, but Weirbeck's performance in the first half was really terrible.
Also because Arsenal had too much advantage in the first half that Li Shou, as a goalkeeper, had no performance, so in the whole first half, Li Shou had to maintain his physical heat through exercise.
Arsenal needs to make adjustments at the midfield break. In fact, Manchester United also needs Van Gaal to do something in the midfield. Arsenal is in a strong position but Manchester United has very few chances to shoot.
……………………………………..
"Olivier, you replace Daniel in the second half." Wenger finally made the decision to substitution. Although Weirbeck's mood was once considered, Wenger finally chose to win the game.
Chelsea, who played one day earlier, had already defeated West Brom 2:0 at home, and Arsenal must win in this case.
Of course, Velbeck was unhappy about being replaced by the midfield, 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, when the head coach had already made a decision, it would be useless for him to say anything else.
Arsenal made personnel adjustments, but Manchester United did not change at all, but even so, Manchester United was completely different from the first half in the second half.
After the second half of the game restarted, Manchester United immediately completed a shot. Rooney and Van Persie cooperated. The Dutch forward was once Arsenal's flag player.
But at Arsenal Van Persie could not see hope of winning the championship. In order to realize his championship dream, Van Persie resolutely ran away and joined Manchester United.
In fact, Van Persie's decision is very similar to the King of Highbury who once joined Barcelona. Although Henry won the Premier League championship, he has never touched the trophy of the Champions League.
No, Arsenal almost touched it once, but unfortunately he fell at Barcelona's feet in the final. Perhaps because of this, Henry chose to go to Barcelona and finally succeeded in realizing his dream and then went to the American Major League.
In fact, it is understandable that players leave in pursuit of honor. What do players pursue, honor and money, that is, the so-called fame and fortune.
As long as you perform well in money, you will definitely get a satisfactory salary. But if you want to get honors, you not only need to be outstanding, but also to be outstanding in teammates. After all, not everyone is Maradona, and you can carry the team forward with your own strength.
But to be honest, Li Shou seems to be doing such a thing now. Isn’t Arsenal currently relied on Li Shou’s own efforts to achieve current results?
…………………………………….
"Van Persie, the old Arsenal player completed his first shot in this game." As the starting striker of Manchester United, Van Persie completed his first shot in the second half, which shows how miserable Manchester United was in the first half.
"But Van Persie's shot did not help Manchester United score." Although there was no goal, Manchester United's attack was not over yet. Because the ball was lifted out of the baseline by Li Shou, Van Persie's shot was of good quality.
Van Persie also took the penalty for the corner kick, and Smalling reached the first place. Originally, Li Shou wanted to attack, but Monreal stood in front of Li Shou.
Smalling's header was not threatening, and he directly deviated from the baseline and turned into an offense. Li Shu passed the ball to Ramsey, who found Giroud with one kick.
Giroud, who had been away from the court for several months, may be in a normal state, but his physical fitness was there, heading the ball and the ball came to the feet of Giroud's compatriot Griezmann.
Griezmann, who received the pass, dunked Smalling and then rushed straight to Manchester United's penalty area. As a result, Carrick's interception was found, and Griezmann forced his kick and missed.
Then Manchester United broke into Arsenal's penalty area again, and Ashley Yang, who succeeded Lukesha, entered the highway and was cleared by Li Shou from the side of the penalty area.
To be honest, Ashley Young's cross quality is average. Li Shou not only easily cleared the ball, but also created an opportunity for Arsenal to counterattack.
The ball that Li Shou knocked out came to Wilshire's feet, and the latter passed it diagonally to Sanchez on the wing. Sanchez broke through along the wing and cut into the penalty area and scored a close-range shot, but was saved by De Gea.
But from the current situation, De Gea's performance is better than 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 to defense to offense, the ball de Gea cut off at Ashley Young's feet. The latter did not pass the ball, but instead rushed to Arsenal's half along the side of the wing and rushed all the way to the side of the penalty area.
The cross was made, but this time Ashley Young did not take a high ball, but a low pass. Moreover, 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 Yang's cross was not suitable for attack. The ball came to the back point as scheduled. At this time, Valencia and Gibson rushed towards the ball together. In the end, Gibson hit the ball before Valencia, but Gibson's foot was not clearing, but flew towards the goal.
"Own~~~God~~Manchester United is going to score a goal." The ball actually hit Gibson's extended foot and changed direction and flew towards Arsenal's goal.
"No~~~ The ball didn't go in." The moment 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 can actually react under this situation. He saved the own ball from his teammate." After the ball changed its flight trajectory, Li Shou also fell from mid-air.
"A incredible save~~A rare save, God~~~Li can actually save Arsenal's team and save the goal he guards in this situation." The stands at Emirates Stadium were extremely quiet when they saw Li Shou making this save, because they all kept a shocked expression on their faces.
In fact, it was more than just the fans who were shocked. Both head coaches on the sidelines were like this. Van Gaal was shocked with an incredible look, while Wenger had an incredible look with a hint of surprise.
"Has there ever been a goalkeeper in the world football that made such a save?" Paul Merson couldn't help asking.
"I don't know, but I have one thing I can be sure of. I have never seen such a save in my commentary career," Andy Gray replied.
"One save is enough to be a save in history." On the court, Li Shou, who fell from his mouth, has not yet risen because he is being pressed by his teammates, especially Gibson, who kicked this one, is holding Li Shou and constantly saying some words of thanks.
"Although Li didn't have any chance to perform in the first half, he could become the most goalkeeper in this round just by saving it." As time went by, everyone finally realized it.
Wenger couldn't help asking himself in his heart, "Did you buy a monster and come back?"
On the other side, Van Gaal looked at Wenger with envy. 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 that.
And in the stands at Emirates Stadium, there was only one voice left at this moment, "Li~~Li~~Li."
At the same time, all the fans watching the game could no longer help shouting, "Li Shou is awesome."
……………………………………………
"Wow~~~Li Shouxi seemed to have made an amazing save." Seeing nearly 60,000 people frantically frantically for Li Shou, two women from South Korea were shocked.
Although this is not their first time watching football, they were deeply shocked at this moment.
"Ohni, I now know why senior Son Ye-jin fell in love with Lee Shouxi." Zhien asked Ji-eun to look at Lee Shou who was getting up from the lawn.
"Oh, Mo~~~ Is it a bit of our hearts too?" The woman named Oni looked at Zhien beside her and found that Zhien's eyes were always on the court at this moment.
"Oh, what's the use of being moved? People have girlfriends." In front of their close sister, there is naturally nothing impossible to say.
"What does that matter? I just dating and not getting married. Maybe they will break up tomorrow." The two women started a new round of ear biting.
On the court, Li Shouze clamped Gibson with his arm. If it weren't for Gibson's own own and rushing towards him for the first time, he wouldn't have been suppressed by his teammates for so long.
Of course, Li Shou did not blame Gibson, although Li Shou was taking revenge on Gibson at this moment, and also told Gibson not to take the own as soon as possible and let him focus on the next game.
The game started again and Manchester United took a corner kick again, but this time Manchester United chose a tactical corner kick. Van Persie gave the ball to Valencia, who gave it to Carrick's feet in the penalty area, and the latter shot a long shot above the baseline.
Li Shou drove the goal, but Li Shou did not expect that his goal would cause injury to his teammates. Wilshire received a pass from Arteta to Manchester United and was pressed by Fellaini. As a result, Wilshire fell to the ground with pain on his face.
In fact, Fellaini's moves are not big, but the Belgian is much stronger than Wilhelm. Besides, the injury on the court depends on luck and the players' own physical condition.
Wilshire's injury forced Wenger to use the second substitution in this game. Cazorla replaced Wilshire, and Arsenal immediately completed a shot after the game started again.
Cazorla, who just came on as a substitute, got a chance to shoot a long shot. Manchester United's defense line is actually similar to Arsenal. Giroud, who recovered from injury, once again beat the defensive player to hit the ball back, and Cazorla shot a long shot from the top of the arc.
"De Gea~~~ Manchester United goalkeeper performed very well in this game, but it seemed a little dim after Lee made that save," Andy Gray said, looking at De Gea who blocked Arsenal's shot again.
In the 68th minute, Manchester United also made the first substitution in this game, and it was also a time when he was forced to substitution. Ashley Young completed the cross again, and here Li Shou chose to attack, but Manchester United striker Van Persie was unwilling to give up this opportunity.
When no one is willing to give up, the collision between the two is inevitable. Van Persie's easily injured physique can be compared with Li Shou, so naturally Van Persie was injured. However, Van Persie was not seriously injured, but she couldn't hold on in this game.
The referee didn't say anything about this collision. After all, neither of them went for people. Li Shou and Van Persie knew about this, so Van Persie naturally wouldn't blame Li Shou.
Then he looked embarrassed. Although Manchester United spent a lot of money this summer, in fact, there were not many forwards in Manchester United. With Falcao injured, only young player Wilson sat on the bench in this game.
In fact, this young player is full of the shadow of Welbeck. He is the perfect Manchester United youth training and has also been clamored by many media as the future of Manchester United and England.
Even if Van Persie was replaced due to injury, Arsenal fans still sent away the former core with boo. This is the fans, and love and hate are often so direct.
The game started again, and Li Shou drove the ball again. After passing a few passes, the ball came to Sanchez's feet again. However, this time, Sanchez did not choose to continue along the sidewalk, but moved horizontally to the middle to cooperate with Ramsey.
In order to block Arsenal's attack, he chose to make a foul and immediately gave Arsenal a free kick with a very good position.
At this time, Li Shou, who was standing in front of Arsenal's goal, moved. When the time had reached 70 minutes, even if Li Shou did not move, Wenger would let Li Shou move.
After all, a good position of free kick opportunities does not mean that there are any. Sometimes there are not two in the whole game, so with only twenty minutes left, this opportunity must be seized.
So when he got this free kick, Li Shou looked at Wenger on the sidelines as soon as possible. The master and apprentice obviously thought of going together. Wenger was also watching Li Shou at this time, and then Li Shou moved.
"Oh oh oh ~~~ Lee left the goal. It seems that he is going to take the free kick this time," Andy Grey shouted immediately.
"Li Shou has currently taken three free kicks in total. He took the penalty once and scored one goal last season in Monaco. The remaining two times were after joining Arsenal this season, and they were both in the group stage of the Champions League, so this is the first time that Li Shou has taken a free kick on the league court." Although many fans know the information about Li Shou taking a free kick, Zhan Jun still gave fans a lot of science.
"This is the first time that Li took a free kick in the league. Can he succeed 100% in the Champions League group stage in a row?" With everyone's expectations, Li Shou took the ball from Sanchez.
Chapter completed!
