Arsenal like to play beautiful attacking football, and the midfield is full of technical players. But it would be a big mistake to think that this group of technical team members are vulnerable.
After the opening, the Gunners at home were not conservative at all and launched an unabashed attack on their rivals in the same city. Catering to the momentum in the stands, it seemed as if he was going to eat Tottenham players alive.
Fabregas doesn't care who you protect the ball like. For him, getting the ball down as quickly as possible is the key.
Feeling the pull from his upper body and the constant kicks from his lower body, Wang Xiaodong was harassed endlessly.
What's the matter with you kid?
A Golden Boy Award is so boring that it can’t be found?
Wang Xiaodong straightened up his back and thrust out his butt, instantly pushing Xiaofa a meter away.
However, in the face of the fierce derby battle, the ballerina had already transformed into a butcher, and Fabregas rushed forward again with a machete in his hand.
"It's not over, isn't it?"
Wang Xiaodong, who had been irritated by the entanglement since he came up, immediately turned around and hit him hard with his hip bone from the side. Arsenal's golden boy was knocked to the ground directly by Wang Xiaodong.
We could see such a heated scene right from the start, which made fans from both sides excited.
The gun fans in the stands kept shouting, urging Xiaofa to stand up again and intercept the ball.
Not even halfway through the league, the Gunners were far behind the first tier. If they don't score points in the derby, they might really be out of the championship half a season early.
Xiaofa, who fell to the ground, gritted his teeth, rolled up his sleeves, and got up again to fight Wang Xiaodong with the kitchen knife.
Wang Xiaodong, who had gotten rid of his restraints, didn't care about you. He carried the ball across the half court and directly passed the ball to his teammates with a long pass.
The Gunners playing at home are very strong offensively and defensively. When they saw Wang Xiaodong's long pass, the entire team moved to the other side of the court with the ball. What was in front of Lennon was still the intensive defense from the arsenal.
They feinted several times in succession, but the Gunners' defense remained motionless. In desperation, Lennon had no choice but to pass back and let his teammates reorganize the attack.
Although Fabregas is not as good as Wang Xiaodong physically, his mature midfield control makes the Gunners comfortable in offense and defense, which Wang Xiaodong cannot even match.
It was precisely by virtue of his control of the midfield that Fabregas became the golden boy certified by FIFA.
With such a player coordinating in the midfield, Arsenal quickly intercepted the ball.
The two sides fought for each other in the midfield and fought each other for more than ten minutes. Not only did Henry's high-speed breakthrough fail, but even Berbatov's header was saved by Lehmann.
In just ten minutes, the backs of the players on both sides were already soaked with sweat.
They were extremely jealous when they met on the spot, and no one wanted to take the first step in the derby.
Both Martin Joel and Professor were dissatisfied with their respective team's performance, and the two yelled on the sidelines in the hope of helping the players control the game.
But can a derby match, especially one dominated by a coach shouting twice, be possible?
Fifteen minutes later, Arsenal's offensive paused.
This period of time is an adaptation period for the players, allowing the body to gradually adapt to the strenuous sport of football, so that they can perform better in the following time.
But for Wang Xiaodong, this time point obviously does not hold true.
Do you want to rest?
Have you asked me?
Under the pull of Wang Xiaodong, Lennon and Malbranque continued to assist and interfere with the Gunners midfield.
The professor obviously anticipated this situation and made targeted arrangements for Wang Xiaodong's long physical strength.
With continuous passes, the Gunners midfielder did a good job of avoiding the continuous attacks from Tottenham. Moreover, with Xiaofa as the transfer station, he moved forward, left, and back in the air and constantly adjusted, and every pass was not sloppy.
Gradually, when Wang Xiaodong also stopped to take a breath, the professor on the sidelines showed a confident smile.
Conquering Wang Xiaodong is much easier than conquering zippers.
Judging from the schedule, Tottenham basically has no strong opponents after the derby, and even the remaining Europa League group stages can be given up.
As for the Gunners, they not only have the Champions League to play, but their next league game is a visit to Stamford Bridge to face the opponent that the professor least wants to face.
So for Tottenham, this game is "holding your last breath", but the Gunners have just begun.
Sensing that Wang Xiaodong had begun to get discouraged, the professor smiled happily on the sidelines. At least he felt that after Tottenham's fighting period was over, there should be no problem in winning the derby.
But the professor obviously underestimated Wang Xiaodong's determination, or the most "axial" part of his character.
It can be said that Wang Xiaodong single-handedly brought Southampton to the Premier League last season. This season, he has reached a bigger platform. How can Wang Xiaodong retreat in the face of his former "defeat"?
Although the League Cup match was against the Gunners' substitute lineup, in Wang Xiaodong's eyes, Arsenal is Arsenal, and if you lose, you lose, even if you are the main force!
Since it is difficult to steal the ball in the midfield, I will wait for you behind.
You can't keep playing in the backcourt, right?
I don’t believe you don’t tell the story forward!
As the core of the Gunners' offense, Fabregas has gradually become Arsenal's brain and commander, and determines the direction and focus of the Gunners' offense.
In other words, if you freeze this point, it will be tantamount to paralyzing the shooter.
After retreating to his own half, Wang Xiaodong stared at Cesc Fabregas with his eyes.
As long as this kid gets the ball in his own half, Wang Xiaodong will use a "close contact" to make this kid's memory long-lasting.
As a result, poor Xiaofa was completely exposed to Wang Xiaodong like a school girl targeted by a crazy man.
Under Wang Xiaodong's almost invincible collision, Xiaofa covered his anus several times, and he felt that his penis was about to be knocked out.
"Farke!"
"Damn it!"
"This guy did it on purpose!"
After falling down again and again, Xiaofa looked at Wang Xiaodong with anger in his eyes.
"Are you not convinced? Come back if you have the guts!" Wang Xiaodong met Xiao Fa's eyes and kept raising his hands in provocation.
"Francisco, don't be fooled by him!" Gilberto Silva came over and pulled Fabregas up from the ground. He wanted to help Fabregas share the pressure, but Wang Xiaodong had his eyes on Fabregas and seemed determined to fuck him. Not so.
When Wang Xiaodong was determined to lock someone up, Xiao Fa was like a mosquito caught in a spider web. The more he struggled, the tighter the web tightened.
If you can't get past it, you'll feel uncomfortable all over again if you hit it. Without Xiaofa's organization, within just a few minutes, the Gunners' offense turned into a mess.
Even if Xiaofa used his running position to get around Wang Xiaodong, the moment he touched the ball, Wang Xiaodong would rush up and hit him like a train without brakes.
In order not to lose the ball, Xiaofa had to pass the ball again without delaying for a second.
Arsenal played several consecutive attacks without routines and gained little.
Henry was also helpless in the frontcourt.
When working with Vieira before, the Frenchman's fierce dominance was unrivaled in the Premier League.
But now he can't catch the ball at all in front, and he can't act as a standing center like Drogba. The Gunners simply don't have a tenable receiving point in the frontcourt.
Of course, Tottenham's counterattack effect is not very obvious.
Wang Xiaodong has been restricting Xiaofa and rarely has the opportunity to send fast and accurate long passes.
The other teammates had no ability to move, and when the ball was delivered to their feet, the day lily was cold.
This situation is very embarrassing for both sides. There is no happy draw in the North London Derby, only winners and losers!
Just when the fans thought that the players from both sides were competing for endurance, a surprising scene happened.
Taking advantage of a dead ball opportunity, Martin Joel called Wang Xiaodong to the sidelines for a face-to-face discussion.
From then on, Xiaofa’s pressure instantly eased a lot.
Just when Fabregas thought he could get rid of Wang Xiaodong and organize a decent attack, Ledley King flew up in the penalty area and cleared the ball to the midfield.
Watching the ball fly in, Gilberto Silva took the lead and stood in position, waiting for the ball to hit his head.
At this moment, the Brazilian suddenly felt a gust of wind blowing in front of him.
Before he could react, Wang Xiaodong's figure leaped high, covering his entire body in shadow.
The Brazilian who took off forcefully did not hit the ball, but Gilberto, as an experienced midfielder, deliberately extended his right foot when he fell to the ground and inserted it between Wang Xiaodong's legs.
Sure enough, Wang Xiaodong, who landed unsteadily, only had the ball in his mind and didn't notice his opponent's little moves at all.
As soon as he turned around and took a step, his right leg tripped onto Gilberto's right leg.
The sound of shin guards colliding was heard, and the Brazilian almost bit off his tongue in pain for a moment.
Wang Xiaodong also frowned, but when he staggered away from his opponent, he still rushed forward.
The ball hit by Wang Xiaodong bounced high after hitting the ground. Kolo Toure saw that his teammates did not completely stop Wang Xiaodong and quickly chased after him.
Amid the exclamations of the fans, two red figures and a white figure collided.
Senderos's bald head hit Kolo Toure's cigarette-smoked curls hard, while Wang Xiaodong's chest leaped high and hit both of their shoulders.
The ball landed in the gap between the three people and bounced forward. After knocking away the two "blockers", another white figure chased the ball forward.
"my God!"
"What just happened?"
"how so?"
From the moment Wang Xiaodong took off for the first time and Gilberto broke off the top, Berba, who was standing on the center line, was not optimistic about Wang Xiaodong, who came from behind.
When Wang Xiaodong was tripped by the Brazilian, Berba retracted the leg he had just stepped out.
Robbie Keane was no different from him. The two Bai Baihe strikers stood in the center circle, watching their midfielders fly forward and collide with the two Arsenal defenders again.
What is unexpected is that wherever Wang Xiaodong goes, people stand on their feet. Senderos and Toure, who are known for their physical strength and strength, are no different from paper in Wang Xiaodong's eyes.
When Eboue on the side reacted, Wang Xiaodong had already caught up with the ball and faced Lehmann.
At this moment, the gun fans in the stands covered their heads.
They never dreamed that the opponent's defensive midfielder would single-handedly attack the goalkeeper.
Martin Joel on the sidelines was already crazy. He raised his fists high and spoke angrily, as if he wanted to say something.
Bang! ! !
There was a gunshot from the Gunners penalty area.
Nothing fancy.
Wang Xiaodong is not the kind of technical player who can surpass the goalkeeper.
But when he caught up with the ball on the penalty area line, the result was already doomed.
Crazy Lehmann didn't react at all, and the ball was like a cannonball, drilling into the net from his right side.
The moment the ball hit the net, Martin Joel finally spat out the words in his mouth: "Fake Squid! Just play like this, Dong! Just play like this!"
"When did I tell you that you have to defend with all your strength against rubbish like Arsenal?"
