I have to say, this game is so evil.
In other games, it may be difficult to score a single goal after a game, and there are many 0-0 games. But in this game, goals came one after another.
Arsenal were not happy for long after they equalized the score. In the 19th minute, Willard once again displayed his excellent technical ability, first breaking through the interception of midfielder Flamini with a crotch-crossing kick, and then facing defender Kos. Cherny's sliding tackle successfully avoided and controlled the ball with a Marseille spin, and then dribbled the ball into the left wing of the penalty area.
Defender Bellerin and goalkeeper Petr Cech, as well as full-back Hoel Campbell, who was returning to defense, were all attracted to Willard. Then, Willard did not shoot, but made a cross pass and passed the ball to the goal of the small penalty area.
In front of his own goal, center back Per Mertesacker did not dare to fly to tackle, and as a result, he failed to reach the ball. The ball rolled past him, and Liverpool forward Firmino, who was just behind him, rushed over and pushed the ball into the goal easily.
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooal..."
"It's Firmino again!"
"Two goals!"
"Firmino received a cross pass from Velarde and scored with a shot from the small penalty area. He scored twice and helped Liverpool take the lead again."
"And this time it was Willard who assisted."
"Although Velarde's assist is not included in the first goal, that goal was actually scored by Firmino after Velarde's shot caused Cech to save and bounce off the post."
"This second goal was really an assist from Velarde."
"He dribbled the ball past Flamini and Koscielny's interceptions, reached the left wing of the penalty area, and then passed a good ball with his left foot."
"Villad's skills and reverse-foot ability are getting better and better. Velard, who has a basically balanced left and right foot, can really appear in any position on the court and use either foot to pass or shoot, beating opponents. It’s hard to prevent.”
"The presence of Willard has indeed greatly improved the quality of Liverpool's offense and defense."
"It depends on whether Arsenal can score another goal to equalize the score."
"Just looking at the state of both sides today, I think the goals will not stop."
The commentators were right, the players on both sides were in high spirits now. At this time, even if the head coach asks everyone to defend, I am afraid no one will listen.
With three goals in 19 minutes, Liverpool and Arsenal were already in attack mode, and no one could stop at this time. As long as they get the ball, they press together and attack the opponent's penalty area.
In the 25th minute, Liverpool got another chance.
After Willard got the ball in the middle, he attracted three Arsenal players to rush for him. However, Willard did not take credit and immediately passed the ball to Jordan Ibe.
Right winger Jordan Ibe caught the ball and went down to the bottom, tricking Gunners full-back Monreal to take a step towards the baseline. Then he suddenly spiked the ball and cut inside, and then passed the ball outside the right corner of the penalty area and hit the ball high. The ribs on the other side of the penalty area.
Left winger Lallana rushed into the left rib of the penalty area and hit the ball with a diving shot. Unfortunately, he failed to reach the front goal frame and hit the ball on the side net.
In the 28th minute, Ouyang first used a smash to pass Emre Can. Faced with Velarde who was filling in for an interception, he was full of confidence and prepared to use a pull ball to turn around and pass Velarde. , but was hit by a fierce flying tackle from Willard, and even the man with the ball was tackled to the ground.
E Abandoned screamed, fell to the ground holding his ankles and rolling around screaming in pain. Players from both sides immediately gathered around, but the referee also immediately intervened, and there was no conflict between the two sides.
But Velarde was not shown a yellow card, because Velarde tackled the ball first and the ball was his. It was E abandoner who couldn't avoid it and was injured by Velarde's tackle.
E Qian'er lay on the ground and rested for a long time. The team doctor came in, rubbed him for a while, sprayed him with some medicine, and then limped to his feet.
From now on, E Qian'er didn't dare to show off his skills in front of Willard, for fear of being overturned by Willard again and being directly reimbursed.
But there are others at Arsenal.
In the 32nd minute, little tiger Walcott passed the ball from the left and broke through the back of Red Army captain Henderson. Through the change of rhythm, he shook off the full-back Klein and then passed the ball.
But Walcott passed the ball a little too close to the goal. Although Giroud jumped very high, goalkeeper Mignolet could use his hands. Mignolet struck in time and punched the ball over Giroud's head and out of the penalty area.
However, Mignolet hit the ball in the wrong direction. Instead of falling at the feet of his teammates, it was picked up by Arsenal midfielder Ramsey who was inserted into the attack.
Although Willard was aware of the danger immediately and wanted to rush over and intercept it, he was still a step too late. Ramsey didn't stop the ball at all, he volleyed the pass and volleyed the ball hit by Mignolet into the penalty area. Willard's flying tackle did not touch the ball at all.
Ramsey picked the ball into the penalty area but Giroud took it off with his chest with his back to the goal. The center back Sakho and midfielder Emre Can in the penalty area rushed towards Giroud at the same time. Behind Giroud was the center back Ko. Lou Toure stayed close to him, preventing him from turning around and shooting.
As a result, Giroud, who took the ball off, didn't even try to turn around. He just hit the ball with his heel and knocked the ball between the legs of Kolo Toure who was caught off guard.
Goalkeeper Mignolet did not expect Giroud to knock the ball with his heel and shoot. He was slightly distracted to observe the movement of other Arsenal players, fearing that Giroud would pass the ball to them.
Unexpectedly, Giroud turned his back to the goal and knocked the ball with his heel to shoot. Mignolet was caught off guard. By the time he saw the ball rolling between Kolo Toure's legs and tried to react and make a save, it was already too late.
The ball rolled past Mignolet's feet and into the goal.
"Wow……"
"The ball is in!"
"Another wonderful goal. With his back to the goal, Giroud stopped the ball with his chest to remove Ramsey's pass, and immediately hit the ball with his heel and shot the ball past Liverpool center back Kolo Tou. Ray got knocked between his legs and rolled into the goal past goalkeeper Mignolet who was caught off guard."
"Ramsey achieved amazing statistics of one pass and one shot, and Arsenal also equalized the score again, and the score between the two sides was rewritten to 2-2."
"And the time now is only the 32nd minute of the first half."
"Four goals in half an hour. The results of the two sides' attacks and the speed of scoring are so surprising."
"There is no doubt that neutral fans are the happiest. Fans of both teams are constantly experiencing a roller coaster experience."
Indeed, at this time, all the neutral fans, whether in the stands or in front of the TV, were screaming and excited.
This kind of strong dialogue is exactly what neutral fans like the most.
Of course, this goal is also extremely happy for Arsenal fans. Not only did they score to equalize the score, but Giroud also scored a wonderful back-heel goal, which was quite creative and imaginative.
The Liverpool players on the other side were also a little depressed when they saw the Arsenal players who ran to the sidelines and hugged each other to celebrate.
They took the lead in the 10th minute, but before everyone was happy for a few minutes, Arsenal equalized with Ramsey's goal. They took the lead again in the 19th minute, but before the end of the first half, Arsenal equalized again.
The neutral fans enjoyed watching this game, but the players on the field were quite depressed about this situation of repeatedly taking the lead and being equalized.
However, the game must go on. We've already fought like this, and we can't lose that energy. Otherwise, once you are discouraged, it will be difficult to get back the feeling of constantly scoring goals and taking the lead.
Therefore, after the game restarted, Liverpool still did not shrink its defense and continued to attack aggressively. Arsenal also did not shrink their defense and continued to compete with Liverpool for the ball in the midfield. Coupled with the weather and venue, both sides made many mistakes and the ball changed hands very quickly.
The game is fast-paced and there are many goals. Neutral fans really enjoy watching it.
The next game did not disappoint everyone, and the goals kept coming.
Before the end of the first half, in the 43rd minute, Arsenal center back Per Mertesacker fouled Velarde, who was holding the ball, and he anxiously grabbed Velarde's clothes when he was about to break through and enter the penalty area. , pulling Willard down directly.
With Willard's physique, it was obvious how much force was used to pull him down. As a result, not only did Liverpool get a free kick from an excellent position at the front of the penalty area, but Mertesacker was also shown a yellow card.
Velarde and Firmino stood behind the ball. The free kick was positioned to the left of the top of the arc in front of the penalty area, about 23 meters from the goal. The position and distance were good.
While at Hurricanes, Velarde rarely took free kicks. But now that all his skills have been increased to 91, Velarde feels that he can also compete for the right to take free kicks. Therefore, after coming to Liverpool, Willard added free kick training in training, not only to practice his feel, but also to let his teammates and coaches know that he has the ability to take free kicks.
Therefore, the free kick was taken by Velarde, and Firmino actually covered him.
After the referee allowed the penalty kick, Firmino ran over the ball and shook the wall and the goalkeeper slightly. Then Velarde followed Firmino closely and kicked the ball away from the ground. stand up.
Although the Arsenal players in the wall tried their best to take off, they still failed to touch the ball. The ball flew over the head of the abandoned child in the middle of the wall, drew a wonderful arc in the air, and then flew into the upper left corner.
Willard's 91 shot and the arcing ability of the 91 technology allowed him to hit a perfect arc, bypass the wall, and kick the ball into the near-end dead corner of the goal.
Although Cech's goalkeeping ability is top-notch, the angle of Velarde's ball was too tight. Cech tried his best to save the ball but was unable to reach it. The ball passed diagonally above his palm and flew into the blind spot against the lower edge of the crossbar.
The commentators shouted excitedly:
"Goooooooooooooooooooooal..."
"The ball went in!!!"
"Willard's direct free kick was a perfect curling shot that went around the wall and into the blind spot."
"The perfect arc, very much like Beckham's round-moon scimitar."
"After creating a goal and assisting a goal, Willard finally scored his own direct goal through a free kick."
"This is the first direct free kick that Willard has scored in his career, and it is also his third consecutive game with Liverpool where he has scored."
"Willard has had an amazing start after moving to Liverpool. Klopp's transformation of his free agent seems to be quite successful."
"Liverpool rewritten the score to 3-2 and the Red Army took the lead for the third time."
"This goal is also the fifth goal in the first half between both sides."
"It's so exciting, this battle."
"Five goals were scored in the first half. I don't know whether the two sides will change the score again before the end of the first half. I don't know how many more goals the two sides can score in the second half."
"This offensive battle was so exciting. Liverpool and Arsenal teamed up to provide all the spectators with a wonderful offensive battle."
"Perhaps, this is also the charm of the Premier League. There are too many strong teams. There are more rounds of dialogue between the strong teams than in other leagues, which is more attractive."
