Chapter 175 Control
This was the moment when the game had just been spent ten minutes. Arsenal's continuous attacks were destined to be the moment of deciding the victory after the ball came to Liu Feng's feet.
Liverpool's defenders were also very clear about this, so Scotter made a series of shouts to signal his teammates to quickly make up for defense and then took a decisive attack.
"The defender's attack was very timely. The two met outside the penalty area. They pulled the ball and changed direction. They didn't choose to pass the ball with one kick!"
"Swish!"
The ball rolled to the left in front of Scotter, where there was a disregarded Giroud. The player moved very quickly. The ball quickly moved and touched his left foot when it rolled towards him. The ball rolled past Agel who was leaning towards him, and then he wiped it into the penalty area from the opponent's right hand.
"Giro's light handling was done, and he directly passed the ball and broke into the penalty area. Miniole quickly chose to attack, and he rushed towards Giroud, who was about to make a round with the ball!"
"boom!!!"
A huge cry came from the stands, and Giroud also fulfilled his mission the moment he contacted Miniole.
"Didn't forcefully shoot against the goalkeeper, pass the ball to the right, Liu Feng ran to the position and followed up and shot!!!"
"Swish~"
The ball rolled into the goal the next second, and Arsenal once again completed the feat of passing the ball into the goal. The perfect linkage between Liu Feng and Giroud also made the fans in the stands cheer again.
"Arsenal! Arsenal! Arsenal!!! Oh oh oh ~"
"The ball has entered~ Liu Feng finally passed the ball into the goal. Liverpool's back line was directly drilled through the pass by him and Giroud. This is a wonderful picture that can only be seen from Arsenal."
Liu Jianhong also had a smile on his face while sitting in the commentary. Although his commentary is known for his passion, he was a bit inconsistent with such a freehand goal from Arsenal at this moment.
After all, everything happened so casually and understatement.
On the stadium, Liu Feng, who scored a goal, ran towards Giroud, who gave him an assist. The two collided in the Liverpool penalty area and celebrated wantonly.
As for the Red Army goalkeeper and the defenders, they could only watch the opponent's celebration with their waists. Their performance in the defense just now was indeed quite poor, and there was no way to escape this.
Rodgers on the sidelines also yelled at his players very angrily. It was not what he wanted to concede the ball in the tenth minute of the game. After all, this is a away game. Once the team is at a disadvantage, there will be too many interference factors that make it difficult for them to recover the score in time.
When Arsenal's celebration ended, both sides stood back to serve again, and at this moment, the momentum of both sides also changed significantly.
The Gunners' faces were already filled with passion, and the Liverpool team opposite them were a little bitter and revengeful.
"Shh!"
As the referee whistle sounded, the game restarted again. Suarez pushed the ball and ran towards the Gunners halftime, and Sturridge was also passing through him.
"Okay, the game has officially begun. Liverpool began to control the ball and attack. The goal just now made them more impactful."
At the beginning of the game, Liverpool's offense forced Arsenal to avoid the front line for the time being.
Gerald, who took the ball in the middle, began to frequently send balls forward, and Sterling on the left of the team also began to use his speed advantage to become the team's ball holder and quickly penetrated into the opponent's hinterland.
With the support of two forwards, Liverpool's offensive linkage is simple and straightforward.
Such a situation is obviously not something Wenger and his disciples are willing to see. From ten minutes to twenty minutes, Arsenal's main task is to regain control of the ball and control it under his feet.
However, the effect is not very good.
In the 16th minute of the game, Gerald made a pass with Suarez in the middle to enter the midfield of the Gunners. Then, the team's midfield leader turned around and made a very comfortable ball to Coutinho who was quickly inserted on the right.
"Coutinho inserted it and shot directly!!! A super long shot!"
"Bang!"
“DUANG!”
It was a world wave buckle like lightning. If it weren't for the Emirates Stadium's goal frame that saved Arsenal's life, Szczesny, who was standing in front of the goal, had just completely saved the wrong direction.
And this is not the end of Liverpool's fierce offensive. In the 20th minute of the game, when Arsenal's possession lasted for a period of time and wanted to penetrate forward, Gerald's sudden acceleration disrupted Gansu's pace of shooting.
After the ball was passed, Liverpool stopped it from the middle. Then, as the Reds' midfield commander, Gerald passed the ball directly behind the Gunners' midfield defense with a long pass.
"Suarez received the ball and went straight to the Gunners' back line. Super pushes on the left and changes direction, comes to the front of the penalty area, and shoots the ball!!!"
"Bang!"
Liverpool seems to prefer long-range shooting in this game, and Suarez's shot was also powerful.
Unfortunately, this time, Vermall interfered with him very well. Although his shooting power was very strong and his speed was very fast, the angle was just right.
When Szczesny held the ball firmly in his arms, the gun fans in the stands made another loud cry. The past ten minutes were definitely their most uneasy moment.
As Szczesny drove the ball to Alba on the left, Wenger began to loudly pass his latest instructions to the players on the sidelines, and he believed that the team must quickly regain the rhythm of possession.
In fact, Arsenal did it. They were not only extremely delicate in offense but also in ball control and passing through the four midfielders.
Liverpool, who had been sprinting and attacking for a while, was obviously in a state of fatigue. As Ganso and Wilhel continued to pull and pass and find their form, they had lost the best moment to interrupt Arsenal's ball-handling rhythm.
So, for the rest of the first half, the ball possession rate of both sides began to gradually widen. Although the lagging Liverpool team wanted to break the opponent's state more than once, each time it was a punch that hit the cotton without any effect.
As for Arsenal, they did not give up looking for opportunities while carefully controlling the ball.
In the 35th minute of the game, Giroud received a cross from J Ronaldo on the right in the penalty area and headed the ball, and Miniole narrowly dragged him out of the baseline.
Then in the 45th minute of the game, Liu Feng received a pass from Giroud's header from outside the penalty area and directly volleyed.
“DUANG!”
This time, the crossbar of Liverpool's goal saved them.
As the ball hit the goal frame, Miniole held the ball firmly in his arms, and the referee then blew the whistle to the end of the first half.
