Chapter 10 Gunslinger?

On the court, both sides started very cautiously. While Everton's five midfielders were constantly running and slowly moving forward with the ball, Arsenal only three forwards crossed the half to start a symbolic press.

Obviously, even the appetizers for the game were not considered at this time. The stalemate between the two sides continued for nearly five minutes. It was not until Fellaini received a pass from Neville to cross half of the game that Everton, who was in possession, started the first wave of attack.

"The Everton players began to push up in large numbers, and Pinal and Arteta from the two sides began to get in quickly."

Zhan Jun calmly observed the situation on the court: "Everton can be said to be a very typical Premier League team. The team's main tactics are mostly long passes and crosses. Sure enough, the ball was flew to the side, and Pinal dribbled the ball and advanced quickly!"

It's simple and direct, this is the way traditional Premier League teams like, and Everton's offense on the court is even more so.

When Diabi ran towards Pinal who was driving the ball, Pinal directly kicked the ball into front of Arsenal's penalty area. Saha, who had been in the early stage, had been waiting for a long time.

"Sahaka Virmalen got the ball, Arteta on the left has already run to the position, pass the ball directly, and cross it from the bottom!!!"

Liu Feng on the sidelines watched the game very seriously. After seeing Arteta reach the position without hesitation, he realized that the pace of the Premier League is much faster than that of Serie A.

"Fellaini followed up in the middle and headed the ball! Koscheerny, he appeared beside Fellaini and directly interfered with the ball!"

The next moment, Zhan Jun's voice became louder. Seeing the ball landing steadily in Amunia's arms standing in front of the goal after being disturbed, he realized that Arsenal's opportunity was coming soon.

"This is a good opportunity to counterattack. Amunia threw the ball to Rosici in the middle. Rosici dribbled the ball forward, and he drew Neville around him and attacked very quickly!"

After one wave of settling, Everton's offense was simple and straightforward, and Arsenal was not very slow.

When Rosici crossed the half, except for the opponent's complete defense line, he was left with his teammates who had already stepped forward from three different directions. After pressing for a while, he seized the opportunity to split the ball out.

"Transfer the ball to Nasri on the left, oh~, Nasri handled this ball very beautifully. He knocked directly in the opposite direction, and the ball rolled diagonally into the penalty area. He surpassed Distin, who was defending him."

"Arsenal! Arsenal! Arsenal!"

In the stands, although there were not many away fans, they also made a grand enough voice to cheer for their team.

"Nasri kept pushing forward, and with one kick, the ball rolled forward into the small penalty area!"

This was a very high pass with a chance. Everton's two defenders guarding the penalty area did not react, which gave Chamake an excellent opportunity to advance in the middle.

Unfortunately, just as the goal was just in front of him, the center pulled his hips.

"Swish!"

A slightly slower tackle caused Chamak to miss the ball at the critical moment, and the ball rolled past him and the two defenders to the right side of the penalty area.

Arshavin, who was stuck in the position by Coleman, was unable to make a supplementary shot in time, and the ball was then kicked out of the penalty area by Coleman.

"Oh, I missed the opportunity. Chamack lost the opportunity to open the first record for the team and missed his first Premier League goal. Oh~, Everton midfielder held the ball again, and they continued to attack Arsenal's halftime."

As if the gate was opened, the two teams completely let go after the first round of offense and defense, and both sides began an extremely exciting attack stage.

Everton, who was at home, gradually showed the team's characteristics in such a confrontation - hard.

"Rossici was knocked down again. Everton's five-midfielder configuration made Arsenal very passive in the competition for ball rights. Oh~ Neville took Wilhelm's interference and started dribbling the ball, making one kick to Pinal, and Pinalse to Fellaini who was in front of the ball."

The result of a series of fights was the same. Arsenal began to suffer frequent losses. Because Wenger has always tended to be technical players in selecting players, it is really difficult for the Gunners to gain advantage in such a frontal battlefield.

In the 30th minute of the game, due to frequent defeats, Arsenal's decline began to slowly affect the overall operation of the team, and Moyes's team also directly grasped this point.

"Fellaini dribbled the ball forward, Diaby tried to interfere with it, and directly cooperated with two-pass one pass. Saha and Fellaini formed Everton's temporary double striker lineup, and they passed Diaby who interfered."

"boom!!!"

The entire stadium exploded when Fellaini dribbled the ball and continued to rush towards the Arsenal's defense line. The Everton fans at the scene began to roar wildly to tear Arsenal's weak defense line.

Finally, Koscheerney could not bear the feeling of being constantly oppressed by his opponent. He became the team's first defender to grab, with his movements being neat and very decisive.

Unfortunately, when the opponent had two and Arteta on the left had already pushed him up, the opponent did not give him a one-on-one chance.

"The ball was distributed to Saha, and Saha continued to divide the side. Arteta got the ball and cut inward. Sarnia quickly followed. Oh, it was not blocked, and the ball was passed back to the middle!"

In these final passes, Everton completed very well. This team, who is good at short passes, played a fancy in the area in front of Arsenal's penalty area, which made the Arsenal defense, who had already lost one defender, fumed.

Finally, when Saha, who was holding the ball, once again took the ball to the right area in Arsenal's penalty area after a fake move, everything came to an end. A tall figure was overwhelming Fermall and appeared in everyone's sight.

"Fellaini! Heading the ball!!!"

"Bang!"

This was a powerful header. Amunia's reaction was slower. When the ball had bounced back from the net behind him, he leaned over and hugged the ball.

"The ball is in! Fellaini, the gods came down to earth to beat Mount Tai, Everton led by one goal!!!"

Zhan Jun's loud comments rang out immediately. This goal can be said to be the final result of Toffee's advantage accumulated over the period of time, and there is nothing to criticize at all.

"Wenger's Arsenal seems to have been attacked by a nemesis. Since the beginning of the game, we have not seen them performing a coherent ball-controlled attack. This is a very bad sign."
