Manchester City has once again returned with great honors, and there is also a European Super Cup trophy in the honor room.
There was no time to celebrate, and the team immediately got back into preparations for the Community Shield.
Whether it was the desire for glory or a good start to the season, everyone had to quickly get rid of the joy of winning the championship and set foot on Wembley Stadium again.
Historically, this game was between Chelsea and Arsenal. Arsenal won by a small goal. Wenger defeated Mourinho for the first time in fourteen direct conversations between the two sides. After the game, he did not shake hands with Mourinho and walked directly into the players. Channel, in addition Mourinho also contributed a famous scene: he threw his runner-up medal into the stands...
Yang Feng decided to borrow it to show off when he was doing pre-war encouragement.
"Of all the finals I have participated in, I have only won the runner-up once in the German Cup in 2013. I put it in the most conspicuous place in my honor room, and I do not intend to let it accompany me more than once, so if this game If I lose, I will throw the runner-up medal into the audience. I hope everyone will not give me this opportunity. I don’t want to be in the news for this kind of thing. It is very embarrassing. After all, winning something like runner-up once is enough."
Before everyone could feel his bastard spirit, Akun couldn't wait to come out and cause trouble: "Really? What if he is the runner-up in the World Cup?"
"...Then I will fall asleep holding the trophy every night."
"Sleeping with the trophy? What about my wife?"
"Can't I hold the trophy in my left hand and my wife in my right hand?"
"Are you stupid? You don't have a wife."
"Say it like I have a World Cup runner-up spot."
Akun said quite needlessly: "Hey, I have it!"
Cross raised his hand in a sarcastic tone, "Sorry, I have a World Cup championship."
Silva made an action that was very inconsistent with his character, curled his lips disdainfully, "It's like no one has it."
"Don't stop me, I'm going to hammer him to death, no, them."
"Add me one."
"..."
Pellegnelli looked at the completely distorted dressing room and couldn't figure out whether the pre-war work was a success or a failure. He could only shake his head speechlessly, turned around and left, doing something out of sight. net.
Compared with the hilarity here at Manchester City, Arsenal has a completely different atmosphere.
Wenger looked like Mr. Bean, but he had an expression ready to die heroically, "Guys, this game is just the beginning of the entire season, but we are about to face the most severe challenge. Those people on the opposite side are holding The highest wages in the entire Premier League are the biggest favorites to win the championship in all competitions, and they will also be our biggest opponents. Only by surpassing them can we be qualified to say that our goal is the championship..."
After a lot of rhetoric, the tactical arrangements made confused everyone.
Although it was not stated explicitly, anyone who was not mentally exhausted could tell that what the professor was going to do was... a defensive counterattack.
It's not that Arsenal don't know how to defend against counterattacks. On the contrary, they have a very solid foundation for counterattacks. But you must know that they didn't have the shame to play this trick even against the Cosmos team back then.
"I emphasize again, everyone, be optimistic about Yang! Be optimistic about Silva! Be optimistic about De Bruyne! Be optimistic about Kroos! Don't waste any opportunity to score!"
"Pay attention to Kante, don't ignore his offensive ability! Pay attention to Aguero, Manchester City does not only have Young as a super striker! Pay attention..."
Looking at the chattering professor, the gunners wanted to help him sum it up in a kind way: Just tell him to pay attention to the other side's eleven.
…
"Viewers, welcome to Wembley Stadium. The 2015-2016 Community Shield will be held here. The two sides will be last season's defending Premier League champion Manchester City and the defending FA Cup champion Arsenal. Yes, this is They met in this event for the second consecutive year. Coincidentally, in the just-concluded European Super Cup, Manchester City had just defeated Sevilla, which they had also defeated in the European Super Cup last year, to win the championship..."
"This is the 21st time Arsenal has participated in the Community Shield, having won the cup 12 times before; while Manchester City has also participated in the Community Shield 11 times, winning five of them.
In recent matches, Manchester City has defeated Arsenal, including last year's Community Shield Cup. In that game, Manchester City won with a score of 6-2, in which Yang Feng contributed 3 goals. The terrifying data of 1 goal and 1 assist, so whether Arsenal can limit Yang Feng in this game will be the factor that has the greatest impact on the game..."
"Arsenal's lineup was 4-2-3-1.
Goalkeeper: 33-Cech;
Defenders: 24-Bellerin, 4-Per Mertesacker, 6-Koscielny, 18-Monreal;
Midfielder: 34-Coquelin, 19-Cazorla;
Midfielder: 16-Ramsey, 11-Ozil, 15-Chamberlain;
Forward: 14-Walcott.
The most surprising thing in this lineup is the little tiger Walcott who appears at the center position!
Walcott is small and fast, and is definitely a good material to play as a winger, but the little tiger has a restless heart. He has always wanted to play center since 2012, but in the past few seasons, Due to various factors, Walcott has never been able to achieve his wish. However, he has not given up on his ideals. On the contrary, Walcott's determination to play center has become even stronger now. Earlier, the British "Mirror" revealed that Walcott's contract extension premise for Arsenal was to play center.
Faced with the strong request of his favorite general, Wenger finally agreed this time. Of course, this is also related to Arsenal's current staffing. You know, since Robin van Persie left Manchester United, only Giroud is considered to be relatively good in the Arsenal team. A pure center forward..."
Pellegrini saw something was wrong with this lineup.
There is nothing wrong with 4-2-3-1, but using Walcott as a single arrow is a bit confusing. But thinking about Giroud now, he can somewhat understand Wenger's feelings, and then think about himself. As the team's forward, he couldn't help but giggle like a retard.
"Manchester City's lineup has not changed much. The frontcourt is still the combination of Yang Feng, Aguero, Silva, and De Bruyne. The midfielder is Kroos and Kante, and the four defenders are Clichy and Kompa. Ni, Van Dijk and newcomer Cancelo, goalkeeper Oblak.
Compared with the main lineup that won the European Super Cup, only Chilwell was replaced on the left back line. "
As soon as the game started, Yang Feng felt tremendous pressure.
Before he even got the ball, Mertesacker and Cazorla followed him, never leaving, with Koscielny behind him checking for any gaps at any time.
On the other side, Aguero was also taken care of by Coquelin and given personal secretary-like care.
Silva and De Bruyne were naturally not much relaxed either. Wenger directly assigned his two full-backs to them as personal bodyguards, almost completely giving up the wing attack.
Fortunately, the other side showed some respect as a wealthy family and did not play with hands and feet as if it were a rugby ball. Otherwise, this game would probably be quite awkward.
Silva and De Bruyne didn't seem to be in good condition today. They failed to perform any high-end operations under the opponent's close pressing. Akun no longer had the courage as in the previous game. He was immediately given up after being intercepted three times in a row. , after getting the ball, he knocked back honestly, and he had no temper when he was defended.
Yang Feng's condition is still online, and he also made several clever breakthroughs in the zone defense of two defensive players. Unfortunately, he failed to achieve the level of defeating six generals in five levels in the face of Arsenal's intensive defense. Performance.
"I can't imagine, is this really an Arsenal game I'm watching? They are actually hiding in their own half. Ten minutes have passed and they haven't even organized a decent attack! If I didn't look at the jersey, I would I even thought I was watching an Atletico Madrid game..."
"Wenger has finally made a change. Although it is still unclear whether such a change is good or bad, at least we have seen his determination. Of course, as a fan, I do not want to see Arsenal like this. You know, they are gunners! What we want to see is their smooth coordination and gorgeous offensive, the passionate collision of one bullet with another, not this kind of stalking without any enterprising spirit! He He actually sent three players to defend an opponent's striker. Did he forget that he only had 11 people on the pitch?"
"Yes, Wenger used to be a shooter until he met Yang Feng."
"This... your first day watching football? For people like Messi, Ronaldo and Yang Feng, isn't it normal operation to focus 3 on 1?"
After a series of strong breakthroughs failed, Yang Feng began to try long-range shots.
In the 15th minute, Cross barely completed a long pass from the backcourt of mediocre quality under the interference of Ramsey.
Yang Feng forced Casola away and relied on him to steadily remove the ball with his right foot.
Mertesacker next to him immediately attacked, and Cazorla behind him was also restless, pressing his hands on his back and exerting force.
Yang Feng used a fried meatball to cleverly avoid Mertesacker's right foot. Then when Cazorla continued to press forward, he suddenly knocked the ball with his heel and knocked the ball directly between his legs. .
Cazorla and Mertesacker rushed to chase the ball, but Yang Feng stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and took the ball first and flew out.
Arsenal's players who were huddled in the backcourt immediately came out in full force, but this time Yang Feng did not give them a chance to encircle them. After a slight adjustment, he fired a heavy shot at the football.
In the eyes of others, this was just a desperate kick after being unable to attack for a long time, but Yang Feng had great expectations for this shot.
Drogba's strength, Adriano's long-range shooting skills, Denilson's ball sense, and his current good condition, he feels that this shot is still useful.
The football flew to the upper right corner of the goal with his expectations and the blessings of all Blue Moon fans.
Monreal jumped high and tried to stop the ball with his head, but unfortunately he was still a step too slow. When he took off, the football had already flown over his head.
Seeing that the football was about to enter the goal, I didn't expect that he was not the only one cheating today.
Cech swooped in and slapped the ball down with one palm.
Aguero rushed forward to take a shot, but Cech did not give him this chance. After his feet landed, he immediately stepped forward and hugged the ball firmly with both hands.
Before all the exclamations could stop, Cech had already rushed to the edge of the penalty area with the ball in his arms and kicked the ball out with a big kick.
The football passed over everyone's heads and fell towards Manchester City's penalty area.
Manchester City's formation was very forward, and there was no one in the entire penalty area.
Walcott dived from Van Dijk like a tiger out of the cage and rushed towards the ball.
Oblak also abandoned the goal immediately and rushed towards the football that bounced high after landing.
"Young's long shot... Oh! Cech made a world-class save! Look at Arsenal's counterattack! Walcott! He is so fast, no one can keep up! Oblak attacks!"
The two sides were approaching quickly. From the fans' perspective, it was obvious that Walcott was faster. Arsenal fans couldn't help but cheer. Unfortunately... the football bounced too high.
When Walcott caught up with the football, it happened to jump to the highest point. He could only look up at the ball and sigh in excitement while continuing to run towards the second landing point of the football, but by this time Oblak had already blocked it, like a player. He slapped the ball forward as hard as a volleyball, and the football was shot directly behind Walcott.
Fortunately, Van Dijk caught up with him. Before he could react, the football hit his face.
"ha?"
"I'll wipe it!"
"hiss!"
Van Dijk screamed and fell to the ground, and Kompany, who followed closely, quickly kicked the ball away.
Oblak ran over quickly, "It's okay, Virgil, I didn't mean it."
Van Dyke rubbed his nose, bared his teeth and said, "You're so damn accurate!"
"Ha, I should have caught the ball, but I was afraid of hitting him when I landed and the ball would fall away... Do I need to call the team doctor?"
"No, but I beg you, don't slap me in the face next time!"
"What are you afraid of? You don't rely on your face to make a living..."
"There was a dramatic scene on the court. Oblak slapped the ball into the face of his teammate Van Dijk when he made a clearance. Fortunately, Van Dijk seemed to be fine. Otherwise, it would be unjust to be injured for this reason."
... This was the most impressive offensive and defensive performance by both sides in the first half. The rest was lackluster, but Wenger's tactics should be considered successful. Although Arsenal almost only defended and did not counterattack, it made the current Manchester City team so good. Depressed, he was the only one.
"In a Manchester City game, this is the rare first half that ended with a score of zero to zero. I hope both sides can gain something in the second half..."
Manchester City began to advance furiously at the beginning of the second half, but Cancelo's cross from the wing was blocked by Cech with one hand.
Arsenal struck back again.
The iconic quick pass, after just a few kicks, the ball was pushed to the front of Manchester City's penalty area. Unfortunately, it failed to get past Kante. 272 was just about to pass the ball into the penalty area, but the ball was stabbed by the quick-eyed Kante. Walk.
Wenger suddenly felt bad and rushed to the sideline and shouted for the players to return to defense quickly. However, this wave of offensive and defensive transitions was so fast that many Arsenal players had not even passed half time. His behavior was purely out of concern and chaos. .
"The pace of the second half was very fast. Manchester City failed to make a fast break and Arsenal's counterattack was also destroyed. Now it is Manchester City's turn to counterattack!"
"Kros pulled the ball and turned around, but passed it to Cancelo!" Cancelo assisted and went forward and defended again. He was exhausted from running up and down. Faced with this pass, he did not dare to continue dribbling. A quick kick to find Silva.
Silva also knocked the ball cleanly across the board.
De Bruyne rushed over and was pulled to the ground by Monreal behind him, but he still managed to pick the ball into the penalty area before falling to the ground.
】
Aguero and Koscielny jumped together to compete for the top. In the end, Koscielny grabbed the ball. However, he was interfered by Aguero when he headed the ball to clear the ball and failed to get the ball out of the penalty area. Instead, he headed the ball toward the baseline.
Although the opponent would be given a corner kick, at least the crisis was temporarily lifted. Everyone at Arsenal was still very satisfied with this handling, until... Yang Feng arrived.
Cazorla and Mertesacker just didn't pay attention, and Yang Feng disappeared in front of their eyes. He quickly rushed to the football that was about to fly out of the baseline and gave his right foot a sharp kick.
Zero-degree angle explosion reappears!
