"Indeed, this is an inevitable trend. We have seen that Chelsea's two young players Toni Kroos and Van Dijk have basically stabilized their main positions. Lampard and Toni Cross started together for the first time. We can also pay attention to Their performance in this game.”
——
The home team Arsenal kicked off the game first. Van Persie handed the ball to captain Cesc Fabregas immediately. They were not in a hurry to attack at first, and they also wanted to stabilize the rhythm on the court first.
However, in the 3rd minute, Arsenal's Nasri broke through from the left and sent a high-quality cross. Walcott, who followed up from behind, was a little slower and missed the ball.
One minute later, Arsenal penetrated the middle. After getting the ball, Van Persie took a shot from outside the penalty area, but he was offside.
In the 6th minute, Alexander Song sent a wonderful pass in the middle. Van Persie's shot missed due to Ivanovic's harassment.
Chelsea, who were passive, almost scored in the 8th minute. Lampard intercepted the ball in midfield and passed it to Drogba. The Cote d'Ivoire "Warcraft" volleyed from outside the penalty area and missed the far corner!
In the 15th minute, Clichy dribbled the ball from the left to assist and ended up with a non-threatening long shot.
One minute later, Essien made a pass from the right, and Drogba's header hit Djurou and missed the far corner of the goal.
In the 18th minute, Wilshere's free kick was sent to the back point, and people in the penalty area were turned upside down. Jolu and Terry were entangled and fell in the penalty area, but Clattenberg said nothing.
In the 21st minute, Malouda knocked down Van Persie in the penalty area, but the referee still did not say anything.
Arsenal then got a free kick opportunity outside the penalty area. Although Nasri's shot was very powerful, it was easily confiscated by Cech because it was too upright.
In the 26th minute, Francesco made a precise long pass to Walcott, but Walcott failed to break through Terry in the penalty area and the ball was intercepted by Terry.
In the 27th minute, Ashley Cole fouled Walcott and received the first yellow card of the game.
In the 33rd minute, Fabregas and Van Persie cooperated continuously, but the latter stopped the ball too much in the penalty area and shoveled Toni Kroos, causing the Dutch forward to receive a yellow card.
Two minutes later, Arsenal Nasri and Van Persie hit the wall and cooperated. Van Persie volleyed over from a small angle!
In the 39th minute, Kalu kicked Clichy and was shown a yellow card by Clattenburg.
In the 41st minute, Nasri suddenly lobbed the back post from the front of the penalty area. Cech stepped back and jumped hard to lift the ball over the crossbar.
In the 44th minute, Arsenal, who took the initiative, launched another attack. After receiving the ball in the middle, Wilshere quickly passed the ball directly to the left side of the penalty area.
Van Persie was squeezed by Van Dijk when receiving the ball, but with his excellent ball control ability, he firmly controlled the ball at his feet.
At this time, Alexander Song came in from the back row and quickly rushed to the penalty area.
Seeing this, Van Persie immediately passed the ball to Song.
After Song received the ball, he calmly shot a low shot into the lower right corner of the goal, and the ball hit the net.
"The goal is scored! Arsenal broke the deadlock first! 1:0, the home team leads." Zhan Jun shouted excitedly after seeing the goal.
"In the duel between two Dutch offensive and defensive players, Van Dijk and Van Persie, the more experienced Van Persie won the final victory in this duel." Zhang Lu analyzed the goal carefully.
After scoring the goal, Alexander Song was ecstatic and rushed to the sidelines excitedly, enjoying the thrill of taking the lead at home.
At this moment, the joy of victory was beyond words.
Finally, he couldn't help but look at Xiao Yu on the Chelsea bench, and pointed two fingers at his eyes first, and then at Xiao Yu. This was a provocative action.
However, Xiao Yu was looking intently at the Qimao Free Novel APP on his mobile phone, immersed in the wonderful world of novels.
He sat firmly on the bench and completely ignored Alexander Song's provocation.
This also made Song even more angry.
Soon the first half of the game ended, and Arsenal, sitting at home, temporarily led the Blues with a score of 1:0.
Entering the locker room, all the Blues generals remained silent.
It wasn't until Ancelotti walked in that Lampard spoke up and said that his and Toni Kroos' positions had overlapped many times and that the midfield was not really playing its role as an organizer.
There was no control in the midfield in the first half, and Ancelotti saw it more clearly off the court.
The performance of both Lampard and Toni Kroos disappointed him.
Lampard was too strong on the court. Many times the ball that should have belonged to Toni Kroos was snatched away by Lampard who was in a bad position, but he did not create a good threat.
Toni Kroos was also too shy and gave the ball to Lampard many times, which also led to missed opportunities.
As for the backcourt, the performance of the five defenders including Essien was eye-catching enough, especially the young player Van Dijk. Although he was at a disadvantage in the direct dialogue with Van Persie, he was only 19 years old and was already completely incompetent. He is afraid of competing directly with top stars, but the future potential makes Anshuai even more excited.
Ancelotti took a final look at Malouda and Kalu. They were indeed out of shape today and seemed to need to adjust in the second half.
In the second half, the game changed sides and Ancelotti also deployed new tactics, but Chelsea soon conceded another goal.
In the 51st minute, Essien's midfield clearance turned into an own-goal assist. Walcott passed the ball selflessly in the face of Cech's attack, and Fabregas scored easily!
"The ball went in. Cesc Fabregas received Walcott's selfless assist and pushed into the empty net to score, 2:0. Chelsea was in danger." Zhan Jun did not expect Chelsea to fall behind by 2 goals.
"There is no answer to this ball. Essien's own goal assist, and Cech has nothing to do." Zhang Lu also lamented this helpless goal.
"This is the third goal Fabregas has scored in the Premier League this season and the sixth goal in all competitions." Zhan Jun continued his data explanation.
"Let's see how Chelsea adjusts. We see Ancelotti also chatting with the assistant coach." Zhang Lu paid more attention to the dynamics on the sidelines.
Fabregas rushed to the sideline excitedly, and at this moment the voice of shouting his name resounded throughout the Emirates Stadium.
At this moment, he is the hero of this stadium.
But Chelsea's nightmare is not over yet.
Just two minutes later, Terry took the ball in the backcourt and turned around, preparing to pass forward, but was successfully sneaked by Walcott, who handed it to Cesc Fabregas.
Cesc Fabregas tore apart Chelsea's entire defense with a gentle rub. Walcott stepped in to connect and formed a single goal, facing Chelsea's low shot in the lower right corner of the goal and scoring!
"Oh, my God, the ball has been scored again! Walcott, Arsenal leads 3:0 at home. It seems that Professor Wenger's prediction before today's game will come true!" Zhan Jun's explanation was full of emotion. Excited.
"In just two minutes, in just two minutes, the two most stable players in Chelsea made consecutive mistakes, leading to two consecutive goals from Cesc Fabregas and Walcott." Zhang Lu analyzed calmly.
