Chapter 96

Before the game, both Wenger and the media repeatedly emphasized such a point of view: this game with Manchester United will be a yardstick to test whether Arsenal really has the strength to compete for the championship.

Wenger naturally wants to play all the best cards in his hands, but God seems to not want him to pass the test here so smoothly, and insists on making him more difficult: just after returning from Germany, Mertesacker and Rosicky one after another Had the flu and had to miss the game.

These two are the main players that Wenger relies on the most. Don't look at him as if he dislikes the team's defense, but in fact, Arsenal's defense has done quite well this season. Basically, they either have zero opponents or only let them score one goal. Among them, Rosicky and Mertesacker contributed the most.

Of course, there is some good news: Wilshere is finally back, and Flamini, who was injured in the game against Chelsea, is also ready to play.

"Arsenal, Mertesacker and Rossicki are out with flu, Flamini and Wilshere are both back from injury, but Wenger only sent Flamini to start, and Wilshere sat on the bench. On the bench, alongside Modric in the attacking midfield position are Ramsey, who has exploded this season, and Cazorla, who has been stable."

"Goalkeeper: 1 - Szesny;

Defenders: 3-Sagna, 6-Koscielny, 5-Vermaelen, 28-Gibbs;
Midfielder: 21-Flamini, 8-Arteta;

Midfielder: 16- Ramsey, 20- Modric, 19- Cazorla;
Forward: 11-Lin Yun. "

"Manchester United's lineup is also 4-2-3-1. The lone striker is still Van Persie. The Dutchman has played against his old club twice since leaving Arsenal. He has gained something each time. I don't know if he will return this time. Can you knock on the shooter's door.

此外坐镇左路的埃弗拉今天是第250次代表曼联对出战,是英超第3位为单一俱乐部出场达到250次的法国球员,此前两位分别是258场的亨利和279场的维埃拉。

Goalkeeper: 1-De Gea;
Defenders: 12-Smarling, 15-Vidic, 6-Evans, 3-Evra;
Midfielder: 4-Phil Jones, 16-Carrick;
Midfielder: 25-Valencia, 10-Rooney, 26-Kagawa Shinji;

Forward: 20-Van Persie. "

The most uncomfortable person in the audience must be Van Persie.

As soon as Ferguson left, the worst victim was neither the faceless Manchester United management who was tossed by the deteriorating stocks, nor Moyes, who was devastated by the team's performance, but the Gunners. Arsenal captain.

For an ambition to win the championship, the eight-year wait is too long, and the dressing room in the Netherlands is full of bosses holding iron bars. The resentment of the entire arsenal also wants to join Manchester United.

Arsenal's rivals Manchester United.

Manchester United led by Ferguson.

He thought back to his last performance at the Emirates Stadium, kissing the turf and never looking back.

He also remembered the first time he won the Premier League Champions League. It was in the stadium under his feet that he used a hat-trick to help the Red Devils win the championship early and won the honor that he had never won at Arsenal.

On the day he won the Premier League title, he told himself with relief that he had made the right choice, but in a blink of an eye the reality told him that Arsenal had reached the top of the Champions League and Ferguson had retired.

And looking at Manchester United's current ghost, if they don't rise up again, they won't even be able to win the Champions League next year.

The most tortured question from the bottom of the Dutchman's heart this season is: you!special!what!land!exist!tease!I?
Arsenal on the opposite side is both familiar and unfamiliar.

Familiar is the friends who have struggled together, had fun together and lost together, but what is unfamiliar is not only a few new faces, but also the confidence and publicity exuded by the whole team from the inside out.

The journey of the tiger and the wolf, the teacher of the king.

Sitting in the stands, Ferguson looked at the Arsenal in front of him, and his heart was full of shock.

After the opening, the opponent's performance did not disappoint their various surprises.

As soon as the ball was kicked out, Arsenal turned away and attacked Manchester United's defense.

Lin Yun trotted to the front of Manchester United's penalty area, leaning his back against Vidic who was defending, and firmly reached out for the ball.

His strong body and fantastic sense of the ball gave him the ability to single-handedly play any defender, but when the football came to his feet, he did not use brute force to squeeze Vidic, who was also like an iron tower, behind him. Instead, cover the ball between your feet, and then shake your upper body quickly from side to side.

Vidic immediately supported his back with one hand, while cautiously took two steps back, did not look at his shaking shoulders like Parkinson, but lowered his head, staring at his feet closely.

Carrick also quickly forced over, ready to attack back and forth with Vidic.

Lin Yun didn't know if Vidic was shaken, but he just felt that it was almost done, so he stepped on the football with his left foot, pulled back hard, pulled the football from Vidic's side, and turned around at the same time, Shock the other side.

Vidic saw Lin Yun's movement of pulling the ball and immediately stretched out his foot. Although he couldn't directly hit the ball under his feet, he managed to poke the ball out.

The football rolled to the direction of Smalling. He thought that everything was fine, but Lin Yun who turned around had already rushed towards the football, and judging by the speed, he might really be able to catch Smalling. Get the ball before.

Smalling was frightened to death, he fell to the ground and shoveled at the football without even thinking about it.

Lin Yun gritted his teeth, accelerated sharply, poked the ball hard before him, and then went around from the other side.

The ball is divided!

Seeing that the football was about to roll out of the boundary, Lin Yun hurriedly made a sliding tackle, and finally saved the football before it went out of bounds.

Carrick and Vidic chased after them in a hurry, and Modric, Cazorla, and Ramsey have also entered the penalty area in three ways.

Lin Yun immediately tiptoed and sent the ball in front of Modric.

Modric took off lightly and ferried the header to Ramsey.

Ramsey made a decisive volley, but Valencia followed like a gust of wind, bumping him lightly as he hit the net.

Ramsey lost his balance, and the football he shot was crooked and weak, which was easily confiscated by De Gea.

Modric patted his forehead annoyed, regretting not doing it himself.

Ramsey also kicked the turf depressedly, while Cazorla spread his hands to Modric, saying that his position just now was actually quite good...

On the other side, Vidic and Carrick couldn't brake enough and hit Lin Yun directly, but the three of them rolled into a ball and didn't happen because Lin Yun had already covered his chest with his hands before they hit each other. forward, and then stabilized the bottom plate, and firmly received their impact.

"...In the first minute of the game, Arsenal completed the first shot. Fortunately, Valencia returned to the defense in time, otherwise the goal would be really hard to say."

Wenger on the sidelines had already clenched his fists and prepared to cheer, but unexpectedly, he fell short in the end, and could only sigh regretfully.

De Gea quickly passed the ball to the midfield with a big kick, and Rooney overwhelmed Flamini and gave the ball to Shinji Kagawa.

Shinji Kagawa knocked back immediately after receiving the ball, Rooney quickly plugged in, and dribbled the ball straight to Arsenal's penalty area from the middle.

Scocielny and Gibbs rushed up immediately, ready to face him head-on, but Rooney suddenly pushed the ball forward, then quickened his pace, and followed up with a volley.

With a "bang", the football flew straight to the center of the goal.

"... Rooney and Shinji Kagawa collided into the wall, dribbling forward with the ball, making the world wave!!!"

Szesny was ready to save the moment Rooney hit the goal, but he didn't expect the football to come straight to him.

He hurriedly put his feet back as he was about to jump out, but he didn't dare to hug the ball directly into his arms, but instead clenched his fists and raised his arms, blocking them in front of his chest.

The sharp pain in his hands told him that this choice was correct.

The football rebounded, and Van Persie was about to make a supplementary shot, but Szesny had already destroyed the ball first.

The football flew into the Manchester United half, landed on the ground and bounced high. Modric and Phil Jones rushed to compete for the second landing.

Lin Yun returned to the front of the penalty area again, and Vidic posted it again.

Modric gave the ball to Cazorla, but Cazorla also faced Evra's marking immediately. After failing to get rid of it at the first time, he didn't dare to hesitate anymore, and immediately passed the ball to Lin Yun. .

The original intention was to pass two to one, and Lin Yun also made a move to pass the ball back, but he didn't expect that the moment his left foot touched the ball, he suddenly turned his toes down, and then gently picked up the ball.

The football flew up to about waist height, and then flew past Vidic.

Vidic thought he was going to play a backhanded ball pass again, and immediately slammed into the other side of his body, but he missed it unexpectedly.

Lin Yun did turn around immediately after picking the ball, but he chose the same side as the football.

After deceiving teammates and opponents at the same time, there is only one De Gea left between him and the goal.

Evans filled his seat immediately, but Lin Yun didn't give him this chance.

The football fell, Lin Yun stretched his bow and set an arrow, and volleyed with his left foot.

The football flew through the air, De Gea judged the right direction, and immediately flew sideways.

"Modric flew another header, this time to Cazorla, Cazorla passed it diagonally to Lin Yun, Lin Yun cleverly broke through with his back! Hit the goal!"

De Gea thinks that both his reaction speed and saving action are perfect to the extreme. In addition, the football is indeed flying towards the direction he judged. He thought that the ball would definitely be saved, but he did not expect the football to hit his finger. Finally, he didn't stop, but shook his hand away suddenly, and then deflected outward.

There was a "bang", that was the sound of a football hitting the goalpost, but before he could be happy, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Lin Yun who turned around and ran to the sidelines.

If the guess is correct, that kid should be celebrating a goal...
