Wigan Athletic, who was frightened by Ye Luo's long-range shot, completely chose to defend under the stress reaction.
Facing such a dense defense.
Arsenal actually don’t have many solutions.
After all, breaking through dense defense is a world-class problem.
Therefore, Arsenal chose to pass patiently, move left and right, mobilize the opponent's defense, wear down the opponent's physical fitness, patiently look for loopholes in Wigan Athletic's defense, and did not make too many risky passes.
There is still plenty of game time.
All Arsenal needs are three points.
One to zero is three points, and seven to zero is also three points.
For Arsenal now, it makes no difference.
They have enough confidence to spend time with their opponents.
After all, facing Arsenal players passing the ball around the penalty area, Wigan Athletic has to pay a greater price in running and physical fitness than Arsenal.
Passive defense requires more than just constant running, or even anaerobic running.
At the same time, they also have to endure great psychological pressure.
In this case, the physical energy consumption is naturally greater than that of the side in possession of the ball.
After all, football always runs faster than people, and the team in possession of the ball can often think that a small amount of running will cost the opponent more physical energy.
For example.
Arsenal transfer the ball.
Move the ball from left to right.
Wigan Athletic's defense line has shrunk into a ball, so it must move as a whole.
Arsenal's side is just a mutual transfer between two players, which can mobilize the movement of all Wigan Athletic players.
This deal is really a good deal.
certainly.
This is also because Wigan Athletic is at a disadvantage in terms of overall strength, so they must do more running and confrontation than Arsenal.
In order to maintain the basic balance of the game.
anything.
It all comes at a price.
The game scene became more boring.
Arsenal constantly moved the ball from left to right, from right to left, and occasionally made a through ball to the ribs, or tried to break through to change the rhythm of the game.
But overall.
This game has not been exciting so far.
It was a half-time siege, an Arsenal offensive and defensive drill.
The cheers of the fans at the Emirates Stadium also fluctuated with the rhythm of the game, and now have entered a relatively calm stage, waiting for the climax of the goal.
However.
That's when Arsenal still had the ball.
Eighteenth minute of the game.
The Emirates Stadium suddenly erupted into huge cheers!
The cheers were so loud that they were even louder than Arsenal's own goal.
what on earth is it?
Many players looked towards the stands.
soon.
They reacted
There must be good news coming from another arena.
What good news would make Arsenal fans so happy?
That can only be Manchester United conceding a goal! !
really.
That's when the cheers from the stadium started.
Assistant coach Blake, a member of the Arsenal coaching staff, came to Wenger's side excitedly.
"Swansea scored!!!"
Wenger nodded.
He knew it when he heard the cheers from the fans.
There is a high probability that Manchester United conceded the goal! !
This is of course great news for Arsenal.
But Wenger remained calm.
He knew not to be happy too early.
Because the game has only passed eighteen minutes now, and there are still more than seventy minutes of game time.
Manchester United had enough time to equalize the score or even take the lead.
And more importantly, Arsenal hasn't scored yet.
Celebrate now.
It was a little too complacent.
So Wenger looked very calm: "I know, but we don't need to care about the situation over there. We can't expect Manchester United to lose. We only pursue to completely control the situation in our hands! We want to win! In the last two rounds of the league, we scored six points! Locked in the championship!"
The excitement on Black's face gradually disappeared. He nodded and looked towards the court.
Wigan Athletic's tight defense.
It's a bit troublesome indeed.
Old Trafford.
The sharp hiss shook everyone's eardrums.
amid such boos.
On the court, Swansea's number one center Michu opened his arms and celebrated wildly.
To be able to score goals at Old Trafford, at the Theater of Dreams.
It is an achievement that every player who plays against Manchester United deserves to celebrate wildly.
Courtside.
Ferguson was furious.
His face turned red.
He yelled something at the venue.
And all the Manchester United players had gloomy faces.
They were also angered by Swansea's goal.
An enraged Manchester United is undoubtedly terrifying.
They immediately launched a ferocious counterattack.
Swansea, who had just scored, could only be suppressed in their own penalty area and unable to move.
When Ferguson saw this scene, the anger in his heart calmed down a little.
At least.
The good news now is.
Arsenal haven't scored yet.
However, the very next moment the idea of Ferguson came to mind.
Old Trafford, suddenly booed
damn it!
Ferguson suddenly spat the gum out of his mouth.
The reason why the fans at Old Trafford can boo for no reason can only be Arsenal's goal!
At this moment.
Emirates Stadium.
Cheers resounded through the sky! !
"Yelo! Yello!! Beautiful header! Beautiful!! One to zero!! Arsenal takes the lead at home!!"
"Wigan Athletic's bus only lasted until the 25th minute!! Their defensive strategy was completely bankrupt! For Wigan Athletic, if they want to score points, it is impossible to continue to defend!!"
"Yello helped Arsenal open the scoring!! This is a very crucial goal!!"
"Arsenal has taken another solid step towards the Premier League title!!"
"If these two games end with the current score, Arsenal will be the Premier League champions!!!"
All the commentators went crazy.
They stood up, turned on their headsets, and roared at the fastest speaking speed and loudest decibel level!
On the court.
After completing the goal, Ye Luo rushed to the sideline crazily, opened his arms, jumped high, dived and glided!
Then came the Arsenal players who followed behind and got carried away.
They rushed forward crazily, pressed up, and pressed Ye Luo underneath them.
Then came the Arsenal players on the bench.
On the coaching bench, Arsenal's coaches were also completely crazy.
They hugged, cheered, and chanted.
They know very well what this goal means to Arsenal playing at home!
Wigan Athletic's holdout is bankrupt.
And if they dare to press out and attack.
That is looking for death!
Arsenal can make full use of the space behind them, launch a quicksilver attack, and completely defeat their opponents!
although.
This is very likely to send Wigan Athletic into relegation early.
But what does it matter?
What does this have to do with Arsenal?
They don't care about this!
Wigan Athletic's relegation was not just caused by this game.
and
even if.
Then Arsenal's players will have no hesitation and no mercy.
The winner is a prince, the loser is a bandit.
Competitive football.
Very cruel.
"Yello's 45th league goal this season!!"
Duan Xuan was also shouting.
On the TV screen, the entire process of Ye Luo's goal was being replayed.
Arsenal advanced from the wing, and full-back Monreal made a pass from the left. In the penalty area, Yelo jumped high, overwhelmed the defender, and shook his head to attack the goal.
The crisp sound of the ball hitting the net was accompanied by the Arsenal fans cheering behind the goal with their arms raised high.
All the fans who support Arsenal and Yello also raised their arms and cheered in celebration.
In fact.
Right now.
Manchester United also equalized the score.
Rooney scored a goal with a tackle in the penalty area.
But the entire Old Trafford seemed a bit silent. The anger and depression of Manchester United fans could not be dispelled by Rooney's goal.
Their destiny is not in their own hands.
This feeling.
This makes Manchester United fans who are accustomed to championships and victories very uncomfortable.
They were depressed and speechless.
Rooney did not celebrate after scoring.
Instead, he rushed into the goal, held the ball and ran back.
Arsenal are ahead.
Even if Manchester United equalized or even overtook.
It doesn't seem to make much sense anymore.
It just delayed the death sentence for Manchester United for a few days.
The camera locked on Ferguson.
The godfather of Manchester United, the master who led Manchester United out of the quagmire of struggle and led Manchester United to a new peak, creating a dynasty that was no less than the peak era created by Manchester United in the 1960s and 1970s. coach.
At this moment.
The wrinkles on the face and the white hair on the head are so clear.
Everyone is aware.
Manchester United's captain, after all, is about to get off the ship.
Wait until he gets off the boat.
Can his successor continue to control the ship of Manchester United?
This is undoubtedly a question in many people's minds.
"Manchester United fans have to return to reality. Ferguson created heaven, but there is only one Ferguson in this world!"
said one of the commentators.
Manchester United fans are undoubtedly happy.
Many Manchester United fans can remember that day.
Sitting on the Manchester United coaching bench is this Scotsman.
Ten years, twenty years.
But people will grow old.
No one lives forever.
Ferguson will leave sooner or later - no, it's already time to leave.
And now.
Arsenal rises.
Manchester City are coming with a vengeance.
Chelsea are building their own foundation.
Under the leadership of Rogers, Liverpool has established a 3S trident of Sterling, Suarez, and Sturridge, and there seems to be signs of revival.
in this case.
Ferguson's departure.
Perhaps, it will lead to a situation where Manchester United completely collapses and goes downhill.
At the Emirates Stadium, it was a different story.
After the goal, Wigan Athletic could no longer defend as before. They began to try to press in the midfield and regain the ball.
If they don't have any offensive ideas and stick to defense, maybe their defense is still safe.
But when they have the idea of attacking
Space inevitably appeared in their defense, which was then exploited by Arsenal.
Thirty-sixth minute of the game.
After Arsenal successfully intercepted the ball in midfield, Arteta went straight to find Yello.
Yelo cut along the ribs of the penalty area, broke through the defender's defense and then shot from the penalty spot!
The football hit the lower edge of the crossbar and flew into the goal.
Two to zero!
Arsenal seals the victory!
