1026 Arsenal's Ascension!

In the final half of the Premier League, Arsenal played against Liverpool at home, and the pace of the game was so fast that it exploded!

When Liverpool's attack came from Karius to clear the ball in front of the goal line, Firmino beat Kante in the middle circle and headed the ball back and made it in front of Ramsey, Ramsey immediately sent a diagonal pass on the ground.

Salah, who had killed the midfielder, quickly led the ball and pushed forward into the forward dribbler, and then quickly dribbled the ball into the incision track.

When Kanter chased back and blocked Salah, the latter knocked the ball diagonally back when he dribbled into the offensive danger zone. Firmino, who followed up the ball, then moved the ball to Mane's feet, who quickly stepped forward and cut in from the left side of the frontcourt.

Due to the lack of protection on the back line, Van Dijk and Coolibali were always afraid of Mane's direct wading through the ball, so they focused on protecting the area behind him. However, Mane stopped in the front of the penalty area and dribbled across the ball!

When approaching the middle of the penalty area, he suddenly shot!

The football is like a cannonball that is out of the box and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

This time, Ter Stegen jumped and hit the football with his left fingertip, but it failed to change the ending of the football flying into the goal!

The moment the football flew into the goal, the Gunners fans cheered in ecstasy!

Klopp roared and fisted to celebrate!

Mane rushed to the sidelines and opened his arms to celebrate this unparalleled goal!

Although the most eye-catching player in Arsenal this season is Salah, this actually better hides Mane's threat!

Salah is indeed good at finishing ability, but in fact, Arsenal's trident should not be underestimated!

"Wow! The long shot from Mane's front-line penalty area broke through Liverpool's goal!

Ter Stegen is powerless to turn things around this time!

Counterattack! Lightning-fast counterattack!

When Liverpool was only one yard away from scoring, Arsenal turned the gun and gave them a heavy blow!

Arsenal leads Liverpool at home, which is probably the best Christmas gift Manchester City has received!

If Arsenal can beat Liverpool at home, it will be a dream come true for Manchester City!”

Situ Yunbing felt a little tricky. Arsenal played resolutely, decisively without any hesitation. The unswerving play on the left side really made Liverpool unable to withstand it. Obviously, Arnold's performance in defense is somewhat out of touch with the entire defensive system.

Whether it is the pressure he encountered after the opening or the difficulty in keeping up with today's fast pace after half a season, Situ Yunbing will not defend him, but the actual situation is that Liverpool has no better choice for the right back. Azpilicueta's broken leg made him directly reimbursed in 2017, which directly determines that Arnold must resist all the important tasks in this position!

Defense is one aspect, and the disadvantages of offense also require him to reflect on it.

It is somewhat unexpected that Arsenal's overall joint defense has improved significantly compared to the past.

It may not be seen when referring to Arsenal's mid-downstream teams, because it is impossible for the mid-downstream teams to test Arsenal's defense!

Only when Arsenal faces Liverpool, an opponent who makes their situation passive, can we see how strong their positional combat and defensive strength is.

In the entire Premier League, only Manchester City and Liverpool can truly test Arsenal's defense, put the most terrifying pressure on them, and force them to perform best under pressure.

In other words, Tottenham, Manchester United, and Chelsea, even if these three strong teams play against Arsenal, they may not necessarily show Arsenal's overall joint defense ability!

Because these three teams will not suppress Arsenal's defense, even if there are goals, they will definitely counterattacks or set pieces, which is not a reference standard.

The match between Manchester City and Arsenal was nearly two months ago, and it does not have the reference value to predict Arsenal's defensive strength in this game.

Basically, Liverpool can defeat the opponents outside the civil war of the No. 1 Group in the Premier League, relying on rhythm and intensity, which means there is no need to change the style of play frequently. As long as the rhythm pressure is given to the opponent, it will be enough to make the opponent's defense flaw or even collapse, and then goals will come one after another.

However, tactical strategies are particularly important when fighting the civil war in the First Group!

Situ Yunbing made gestures to the team on the sidelines to let them change their offensive tactics!

Liverpool's comprehensive technical and tactical capabilities have reached its peak. Situ Yunbing only needs one gesture, and they know how to change and switch the playing style, and there will be almost no out-of-synchronization.

This is done over the years.

It cannot be said that Liverpool's opening tactics were ineffective, but they were a little worse in terms of turning opportunities and threats into goals. Arsenal took the lead in scoring, which forced Liverpool to change their playing style to increase the intensity of pressure on Arsenal's defense!

After re-telebrating, Liverpool quickly launched an attack. Arnold assisted from the right to the frontcourt and received the pass from Casemiro and made a cross.

The football jumped into the middle of the penalty area and was cleared by Koscheerney.

As soon as the cleared football was controlled by Milner in the backcourt, Eriksen stepped forward to counterattack. Milner passed the ball to Wijnaldum at the first time. The latter didn't expect someone to kill him when he was about to stop the ball.

Mbappe!

After the French superstar took the ball first, he came to the right side of the penalty area and shot decisively!

But the shot was a bit straight and was blocked by goalkeeper Karius!

"Mbappe completed a shot! Although Liverpool played relatively simple in the first wave of offense, he still forced Arsenal to make a mistake in passing the ball in the backcourt with the pressure of counter-grabbing!

Mbappe's shot after intercepting the ball was strong, but unfortunately he lacked the angle!"

The blocked football was first controlled by Kante, who stepped forward to intercept at Arsenal's half. Ramsey immediately launched a counter-attack against him. Kante passed the ball diagonally to the left of the frontcourt. Gareth Bale pulled the side and passed the ball back to Robertson, who assisted. The latter stopped the ball and made a cross.

Lewandowski headed the ball in the middle of the penalty area but topped the ball away.

Liverpool's continuous offensive really made Arsenal unable to withstand it!

The offensive adjustment that Situ Yunbing ordered the team to make was that the first wave of offensives in positional battles was mainly simple fast attacks, but then they had to be prepared for counter-attacks, and the second attack should be more delicate!

Hold high and hit high and combine delicate transmission and cutting!

This style of play is what they are best at when Liverpool's initial strength.

It is easy to create chaos in the opponent's defensive rhythm.

Klopp had to make the team play more steadily on the sidelines, because if the pace was accelerated, it would be easier for Liverpool to take advantage of it. We must recognize and recognize that Liverpool's counter-attack and interception efficiency in midfield is higher!

In the 16th minute of the game, Arsenal passed a long pass in the backcourt to instigate the offensive. Mane quickly countered offside and controlled the ball in front of the baseline. At the same time, Arnold returned to defend, and Mane then passed the ball back to adjust. Chambers, who assisted, made a cross from the wing and passed it diagonally.

Salah also responded from the bottom from the right. Although the stoppage was stable, there was little room for play.

Before Kante reached the ball, he knocked the ball across the right rib of the penalty area. Firmino quickly stepped forward and attacked the goalkeeper and hit the goal net.

Two minutes later, Liverpool created a long shot opportunity in front of the penalty area. Gareth Bale cut across and responded to Eriksen's short pass. He kicked the ball without making any adjustments and shot the ball directly. The football flew straight to the far corner of the goal!

Karius flew to save and failed to touch the football, but the football flew out of the bottom line from the outside of the right post.

The fans of the audience were amazed.

Even though Arsenal fans watched the team take the lead, they still felt uneasy. They had many opportunities to lead the score in the past years when they fought against Liverpool, but the game they could win was zero in the end!

Including Wenger's period in office, there have been many times that their memory was still vivid in shock!

The Red Army's resilience and ability to fight against the wind are obvious to all the world.

In the 21st minute of the game, Liverpool made continuous attacks in the frontcourt, but Arsenal's defense adjustment was orderly. After Matip intercepted the ball against Mbappe who broke through in the penalty area, his clearing ball unexpectedly instigated Arsenal's counterattack attack!

The key is that Firmino immediately pulled the side and received the pass, and then quickly completed the wall-to-wall cooperation with Salah.

After getting rid of Casemiro's defense, Firmino pushed forward along the middle road towards the forward dribbler. After coming to the middle road in front of the penalty area, seeing Liverpool's defense line gathering the middle road, Firmino passed the ball diagonally to the front left, and Mane quickly cut inside and prepared to receive the shot!

Van Dijk quickly turned around and blocked the opponent's offensive line. When Mane touched the ball, he pulled the ball towards the bottom line. After passing Van Dijk's kick, he took a kick and shot, but the angle had become smaller!

Ter Stegen saved the ball horizontally and blocked the goal and blocked the ball from the bottom line!

"Wow! Mane missed an excellent goal-scoring opportunity! His shot was resolved by Ter Stegen!

Although Van Dijk's shovel failed to intercept the ball, it also affected Mane, forcing Mane to narrow the shooting angle. Ter Stegen performed steadily without any panic!”

Klopp was extremely disappointed that he failed to seize this opportunity.

Situ Yunbing was calm and composed, so he naturally did not think that Arsenal could seize every excellent opportunity.

In the 25th minute of the game, Liverpool attacked in the frontcourt. When Robertson made a cross on the left 45 degrees, the football was hanging to the back of the penalty area, and Matip headed the ball to clear the ball.

The football he pushed out flew near Ramsey. When Ramsey wanted to control the ball, Casemiro took the lead in seizing the advantageous position. After removing the ball from his chest, he gave a straight pass.

The football quickly rolled into the right side of the penalty area.

Mbappe stopped the ball in front of Matip and spiked the ball in the middle. Matip immediately moved to the middle of the penalty area, but Mbappe knocked the ball back and quickly turned around and inserted it!

Eriksen, who quickly arrived at the right side of the penalty area, made a straight pass. Wijnaldum took the next step and knocked him to the ground. Seeing that Mbappe successfully counterattacked, he did not whistle and foul!

After catching up with the football, Mbappe kicked without hesitation!

This shot caught Carrius completely off guard!

The football flew into Arsenal's goal against the inside of the near post!
Chapter completed!
