"Okay, the two teams have followed the referee and walked into the stadium, and Chinese player Liu Feng followed the team captain Fabregas and walked into the stadium."
The idle talk between Liu Jianhong and Zhan Jun was quickly interrupted by the entry of both sides. Looking at the championship trophy with the crown placed on the sidelines when the two teams walked into the stadium, everyone's thoughts were driven.
"boom!"
Bolton fans started to provide support to their team from the first moments, which made the home team, which is more weak in the Gunners in any aspect, stand up straight.
"The captains of both sides performed the captain's rock-scissors in front of the referee. Oh~, it seems that Xiaofa won, and he chose the kick-off for the team."
"Yes, the Gunners have been making a lot of work when they kick off this season. I don't know what the game will be."
As two excellent commentators, Liu Jianhong and Zhan Jun cooperated without any problems.
After clarifying the kick-off rights, the two teams on the court did not stumble anymore, and both sides quickly stood on the serving position.
"The referee was in the last proofreading time. This was a game that was related to the title, and there was no mistake in every minute or second."
"Shh!!!"
The next moment, a long whistle sounded and the game began.
"The good game has officially begun. Chamak, who was standing in the middle circle, pushed the ball out, Liu Feng took the ball and passed it backwards, and Fabregas got the ball."
In the regular opening pass, Xiaofa quickly distributed it to Wilhel on the left after getting the ball. The little threat of getting the ball did not continue to pass backwards but rushed forward directly.
"In this game, Arsenal's formation was 433, and they showed a high desire to attack from the beginning of the game."
From the time Wilhel received the ball and he led the half, Arsenal's frontcourt line had also spread out and inserted into Bolton's formation.
Bolton's layout in this game also made the Gunners players quite familiar with it, because what they brought out was still 343 that several Gunners had previously set up.
For a moment, it seemed that an answer had been drawn in the Premier League, that is, limiting the Gunners to build heavy troops in the midfield.
This answer is actually not unreasonable. When Arsenal's midfielder just advanced to halfway through, they were under great pressure.
"Mumba pressed towards the small threat, and South Korean midfielder Li Qinglong also leaned over from the side. Wilshire had to pass the ball, and he did not have the route of passing the ball forward."
"It seems that Bolton is still prepared for this game. Their arrangements in the midfield are very compact, and they pass the ball to Xiaoyao. At this time, it is still time to rely on the real core of the team's midfield."
Zhan Jun and Liu Jianhong's eyes both came to Xiaofa with the flow of the ball.
In most games this season, compared to the ball appearing at Liu Feng's feet and then sending the ball into the goal in various ways, Xiaofa is the player who has the most time to get the ball.
In addition to several games being squeezed on the bench by Rosici, Xiaofa can play a key role almost every time he makes a appearance.
"The two sides started to get anxious in the midfield. It was still a bit difficult to penetrate the opponent's compact formation just now."
"That's right, let me introduce the starting formations of both sides to you."
In this game, the young forward Sturridge, who was loaned to Bolton in the second half of the season and shining, appeared steadily at the starting winger position.
This excellent striker who scored 8 goals in twelve games after joining Bolton is a key figure in which Bolton can continue to stay in the Premier League without any pressure. He is now attracting much attention in the Premier League.
In the center position and the other winger position are Elmander and Kevin Davis respectively.
The three players have not performed well since the opening, because although their midfield teammates have effectively curbed the Gunners' offensive advancement, they really have no ability to continue to transport shells forward.
In the end, except for Sturridge, who had the advantage of speed, still stayed in the frontcourt, Elmander and Davis had appeared near the center line to help their teammates.
Under such circumstances, Arsenal's two offensive midfielders surrounded at least two defensive players, so this situation cannot continue to control the ball.
"Okay, in the seventh minute of the game, the ball changed hands. After trying several offensive passes, the Gunners completely cut the ball by Bolton."
"The one who intercepted the ball was Bolton's midfielder No. 10 Petrov. This is a midfielder with excellent offense and defense. Oh~, pass the ball to the back midfielder Paul Robinson. It seems that Bolton does not want to rush to attack."
Bolton's three defenders are Cahill, Stenson and Knight.
Although they are not famous in the Premier League, they have indeed defended their opponent's offense countless times in the game where the team left the relegation zone and entered the middle level.
As for Bolton's goalkeeper, it is Finnish goalkeeper Eusi Jaskolanin.
On the court, due to Bolton's careful handling, the area where the two sides competed quickly changed from midfield to the home team's backcourt.
Liu Feng and Al Shawen used their speed advantage to constantly intersperse the opponent's passing route. After breaking the ball, they both launched a counterattack as soon as possible.
In the fifteenth minute of the game, after breaking the ball down again, Liu Feng took two steps and directly chose to shoot.
“Duang!”
"A muffled sound, A Feng's goal made Bolton's goal make a terrifying tremor!"
Liu Jianhong reacted immediately, and he looked at the ball with regret and was held in his arms by Bolton's goalkeeper.
"What a pity, Liu Feng's shot was very sudden. If he lowered it a little, it would be possible that it would penetrate the goal directly."
"That's true, oh~ Wilshire, he interrupted Bolton's counterattack just started in the midfield, and directly passed it straight, with a beautiful pass, and the ball appeared in front of A Feng again!!!"
Just as the two commentators were still regretting Liu Feng's missed the first shot, the second opportunity for Liu Feng came.
In the opponent's midfield hinterland, chasing the ball to the left, Liu Feng had already chased the ball before Li Qinglong rushed over from the side touched him.
"One pull and one push, the ball rolled directly over Li Qinglong who was chasing. The Korean midfielder did not choose to let A Feng go, and he pulled someone to make a foul! This is an obvious tactical foul."
Just when everyone wanted to see Liu Feng catch up with the ball and kill everyone, Li Qinglong's actions stopped the game directly.
This made everyone hold their breath.
"The referee awarded Arsenal a free kick, which was a free kick 30 meters away from the goal, and it was not a good shot position."
