Chapter 201 Very hurtful and insulting
British local time at 12:45 on December 14, 2013, the 16th round of the Premier League, Etihad Stadium.
Manchester City VS Arsenal.
"The league has played fifteen rounds. Manchester City tops the list with 38 points with 12 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. Arsenal is second with 35 points and 11 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses. This can almost be regarded as a 6-point game.
The result will have a big impact on the title at the end of the season."
"Both teams are tired. Arsenal just went to Italy to play the last round of the Champions League group stage on the 12th, and finally lost to Naples 0-2; Manchester City was slightly better and finished the Champions League in Germany on the 11th.
,3-2 win.
The good news is that Manchester City is first in the group and Arsenal is second in the group. They have both broken out of their respective groups.
There have been 32 historical encounters between the two sides in the Premier League. Arsenal has an absolute advantage with 21 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses, including a double win over Manchester City in 7 seasons. However, if you compare the last 6 encounters, Arsenal only won once..."
"Look at the starting lineup.
Walcott entered the starting 11 for the first time since September, Wilshere and Ramsey returned to the starting lineup, Sagna and Monreal rotated out, and Wenger arranged a 4-2-3
-1 formation.
Goalkeeper: 1-Szczesny;
Defenders: 3- Sagna, 4- Mertesacker, 6- Koscielny, 17- Monreal;
Midfielder: 20-Flamini, 16-Ramsey; 14-Walcott, 11-Ozil, 10-Wilshere;
Forward: 12-Giroud.”
"Manchester City put out their strongest lineup.
Goalkeeper: 13-Oblak;
Defenders: 5-Zabaleta, 4-Kompany, 26-Demichelis, 22-Klich;
Midfielder: 25-Fernandinho, 42-Yaya Toure, 21-Silva, 8-Kros;
Forwards: 16-Aguero, 9-Yang Feng.
This is a 4-4-2, but it is not a 4-4-2 with two wings flying together and a balanced offense and defense, but a 4-4-2 with two defensive midfielders and two front midfielders. This is a big deal for Kroos.
To meet the challenge, he has played as a midfielder, offensive midfielder, and defensive midfielder, but he should not have played in the position of 'side midfielder'."
The best model for Kroos, David Silva and Yaya Toure to coexist should actually be like Real Madrid's three-ceremony midfield, intercepting, organizing, and advancing, each performing their own duties, but the so-called three-ceremony midfield
It was only after the training of many coaches and many seasons of running-in that he truly took shape and became famous in Europe. Pellegrini obviously has not found a way out, and the situation on the field in actual games is ever-changing. Many times, just throw these three people into the game.
In the midfield, once they start to move during the game, it will be effective to let them play blindly, but the positions and responsibilities are too rigidly defined, which limits their performance.
This Latin American style is somewhat similar to the ground play that Wenger has always emphasized, and it is easy to play the so-called beautiful football.
After the game started, the two teams indeed quickly launched a very sharp attack.
Manchester City mainly looks for breakthroughs from the wing. However, it is not the traditional way of breaking through the wing and then passing or cutting in. Instead, Yang Feng retreats sharply and advances the ball through cooperation with Kroos and David Silva.
Go to the front court.
Yang Feng had already played against Arsenal in the Champions League at about the same time last year. He had 3 shots and 1 pass in two games to help Schalke 04 beat the favorites. This time when they meet again in the Premier League, Arsenal is still the same Arsenal. Yang
Feng is no longer the same Yang Feng.
He has an S base as his main attribute, he also has three SSs, and most of his teammates are world-class.
But Wenger and his disciples still looked at Yang Feng in the old light.
Pay enough attention to it, but not enough to treat it as a nuclear weapon.
The price is that the defenders are almost headless when defending, overwhelmed by Manchester City's dazzling offensive.
"... Kroos passed the ball diagonally to the middle. Yang Feng passed the ball to David Silva on the other side. Silva cleverly got rid of it and knocked the ball back. Yang Feng got the ball in the middle again! Is it a shot or a surprise?
pass?"
When Yang Feng took the ball, he was already within his own shooting range, but according to his breakthrough ability, he could bring it further in.
In the penalty area, Aguero has also opened up space to receive the ball, giving him a third option.
Yang Feng did not rush to attack, but protected the ball and controlled the rhythm.
Yaya Toure and Fernandinho quickly came in from behind, and Silva and Kroos also came from both sides. The popular penalty area was suddenly besieged from all sides.
After his teammates had absorbed some of the firepower, Yang Feng suddenly dribbled forward, quickly changed direction and passed Flamini, looked up at the goal, and decisively raised his foot.
Ramsey immediately blocked it regardless of his own safety, but he was lonely.
Yang Feng faked a shot and passed the ball, and gave the ball to Yaya Toure who followed up with a slight poke.
Yaya Toure followed suit, pretending to shoot and then secretly stuffing the ball.
Aguero turned his back to the goal and leaned on Koscielny to knock the ball lightly.
Yang Feng quickly started to get rid of Ramsey and shot with a kick while the gun fans couldn't bear to look at him.
The football drew a wonderful arc and flew to the right side of the goal.
Szczesny had already raised his hands to surrender, but Sagna suddenly came down from the sky and used his body to block the ball out of the baseline.
Yang Feng let out a sigh of regret, but Aguero, who was nearest, suddenly raised his hands and shouted.
"Handball! The football hit his hand! Penalty kick!"
Everyone looked at the referee, but the other side showed no sign...
"It's really a handball..."
"I know," the referee said, "his hands are always close to his body, and the ball will not go in even if it doesn't hit his hands."
"How is that possible?" Aguero said anxiously, "It must be a problem with the angle! I clearly saw his hand raised!"
The referee shook his head, "I only believe my eyes."
"Your eyes deceive you!"
The referee was somewhat impatient and his tone became tougher, "But in my opinion, you are trying to deceive me now!"
Yang Feng quickly came up and pulled the excited Akun away.
"That's almost enough," Yang Feng said, "Can you really make him make up for the penalty?"
He actually didn't see clearly whether Sagna had a handball or not, but he was a little regretful that in order to pursue the speed of shooting, he made the arc smaller, otherwise Sagna wouldn't even have a chance to touch the ball.
Aguero was still a little aggrieved, "It can't be treated as if nothing happened."
"He has already felt your anger, and the penalty will definitely be biased towards us next time."
"hope so……"
"There was a controversy in the penalty area. Aguero seemed to think that Sagna had a handball. Let's see the replay... Well, it seems that the football did hit Sagna's forearm, but whether it is considered a handball is still up for debate.
...Ouch! It’s really a handball! The camera from this angle clearly shows that Sagna’s left forearm left his body when he was sideways blocking the ball. This was a misjudgment!”
Sagna secretly breathed a sigh of relief and ran to the back of the goal with a guilty conscience, preparing to defend Manchester City's corner kick.
Kroos hit the ball to the back point, but Yang Feng failed to get the first point due to Mertesacker's pull. The football flew over the heads of the two of them.
Silva, who was behind, was quick to hit the ball and hit the ball with a low shot.
The penalty area was full of feet, and he didn't have time to choose the angle properly. Anyway, he just hurriedly pushed toward the lower left corner of the goal.
I don’t know whose foot the football hit, but it bounced out and there was a chaotic battle. Toure poked again and sent the ball into Szczesny’s arms.
The crisis was over, and Wenger on the sidelines breathed a sigh of relief and waved quickly.
Fight back!
Szczesny quickly threw the ball to Walcott on the wing.
The little tiger knocked the ball forward gently, and just as he was about to rush forward with the ball, a figure suddenly wrapped around him.
Yang Feng?
Walcott was startled, but he pushed the ball forward, then started chasing the ball.
Yang Feng also ran with all his strength.
His speed attribute comes from Walcott, but he is stronger, taller and has longer legs. He still has the upper hand visibly when running at full speed.
Yang Feng even took the time to open the system interface and take a look. His speed attribute was still S at this moment. It seemed that even if he was faster than Walco, it was still relatively limited.
"Needless to say, SSS must be Bolt. SS should be in the same group as Caniggia and Ronaldo. S is probably the fastest in active service..."
Lineker said in surprise: "It's incredible, Young has caught up with Walcott?! No, not just caught up, he looks faster than Walcott!"
"It's time for you to catch up," Martin Taylor said with a smile. "Young's speed is on par with Robben's. He is the fastest player in the Bundesliga. Obviously, he is also probably the fastest in the Premier League..."
Walcott felt the pressure from Yang Feng and stepped on the ball to make an emergency stop.
Both of them slid forward due to inertia, and Walcott quickly turned around and swept the ball towards the center.
Wilshere, who arrived late, made a direct pass and wanted to pass the ball to Giroud, but the ball was destroyed by Yaya Toure who came back to defend.
The football fell to Manchester City again.
