Chapter 220 Leaning over to dive VS extreme barb
"Goooooooooooooal—"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray's signature drawl.

"Martin dribbles past Benaglio! An empty goal!"

Central 5 commentator He Wei shouted impassionedly: "Arsenal take the lead away and lead Wolfsburg 1-0!"

"Wonderful super fit!"

Marcel Leif, the commentator of German Sky TV, also shouted excitedly at this moment: "Martin returned to the Volkswagen Arena and scored a wonderful goal of a very exciting team + individual show!"

After confirming that the football entered the net, Martin did not have any emotional excitement, on the contrary, he still looked heavy.

Facing the enthusiastic teammates celebrating the goal, he naturally raised his hands, as a gesture of refusing to celebrate the goal.

His action also moved the home fans.

"papaappapaaaa—"

Thunderous applause from the home fans echoed across the Volkswagen Arena.

Arsene Wenger, the coach of the visiting team, was dissatisfied with the team's performance in the first half, but seeing Martin 'inadvertently' showing his ability to participate in the offense on the offensive end, he immediately regained his spirits.

The brain immediately gave Martin another location.

Super B2B!

In fact, as early as when Martin scored consecutive goals, he had relevant ideas, but Martin's forward dribbling ability was slightly insufficient before, and the goal he scored just now was a combination of personal awareness, ball control, dribbling, and timing. , Calmly displayed incisively and vividly.

Thinking of this, Wenger smiled bitterly again. If Martin puts more energy into participating in the offense, then some problems in the defensive system will be exposed.

It's like scoring this goal, so what about another way of thinking?
What if the home team counterattacks efficiently without scoring a goal?
Therefore, Wenger thinks it should be a long-term plan.

The live broadcaster restored the whole process of Martin's goal.

The fans watching the live broadcast of the game stared wide-eyed, for fear of missing the wonderful moment.

Starting from receiving a pass from Ramsey, Martin used his body's center of gravity to sway past Caligiuri and Kruse.

The forward holding the ball was very decisive. Facing Gustavo who kept a safe distance, he directly used the smash to change direction and accelerate to complete the breakthrough. During the high-speed running, he cooperated with Ramsey and Giroud to complete the one-kick kick.

In the end, facing the attacking Benalio, he was calm enough, passing the goalkeeper during the run and then hitting an empty goal.

"There is no doubt that this is a wonderful frontcourt goal!"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray chanted: "Martin has shown us what it means to be a Super Hex Warrior again!"

Hei Jin, the head coach of Wolfsburg in the coaching area of ​​the home team, had a heavy face and looked at Martin with regretful eyes.

If the club executives say NO to the 8500 million euros + 1500 million euros floating clause offered by Arsenal, he is confident that he will bring Wolfsburg to a new height in the Champions League.

However, seeing that Martin has a tactical position in Wenger's team that is not lost to Wolfsburg, it is a bit gratifying.

After all, it will not affect Martin's continued growth.

It is this game in the public arena that it is very likely that there will be no way to score points.

When Martin got up, he really seemed to be invincible.

The defensive task where the responsibility lies is completed efficiently as always, and the offensive end can also bring surprises.

The Wolfsburg players on the court looked at Martin who walked back to the half court and couldn't help but think of the invincible last season.

If only time could be turned back...

……

The game restarted, and Wolfsburg, who had the kick-off advantage, still played according to the tactics formulated by the head coach Heijin before the game.

Avoid Martin's defense zone as much as possible to organize the offense, give more balls to Xhaka and Draxler, and let them decide how to complete the next offense.

Arsenal, who were leading the score, stood on defense and waited for an opportunity to counterattack.

Martin makes up for the fleeting defensive loopholes in the defense through continuous running and defensive line command, avoiding the home team's use.

In addition, Wolfsburg did not dare to invest too much in offense.

Hei Jin is very clear about Martin's ability. The super long pass transfer success rate is infinitely close to 100%, and he can accurately find the teammate who goes forward.

Both Sanchez and Walcott are very fast and can fully support quick counterattack tactics.

As a result, the score displayed on the scoreboard did not change until the end of the first half.

0:1
The home team is at the front and the visiting team is at the back.

The on-site director gave Martin a close-up shot of the player as he walked towards the player tunnel.

Contrary to his past performances with a smile on his face, he looked heavy, as if Arsenal were behind rather than Wolfsburg.

The TV commentators who haven't cut off the live signal know why Martin did this.

Because players who have feelings for the former club will feel sorry for the old team scoring goals.

It's also a cruel microcosm of professional football.

The 15-minute halftime break passed quickly, and players from both sides returned to the court through the player tunnel one after another, preparing for the second half of the game.

Easy side to fight again, the atmosphere in the public arena is still frenzied.

However, it was not very friendly to the players of the visiting team, and there were waves of harsh boos.

The Arsenal players who had the kick-off advantage were not affected in any way. They still played according to the tactics formulated by head coach Arsene Wenger, focusing on controlling the rhythm of the game.

Martin connects the midfield and the midfield through a wide range of running. What Wolfsburg can do on the defensive end is to try not to give Martin a comfortable passing space.

But Martin's style of play is back, and the opposing player is always an offensive player, which makes it very troublesome to defend.

If it weren't for the limited ability of Arsenal's forward players to seize opportunities, the score would have been expanded not long after the start of the second half.

The on-site director gave a close-up shot of Giroud who missed the golden opportunity and hugged his head in frustration. Central 5 commentator He Wei shook his head and said: "If Higuain hadn't disappeared in the medical examination room back then, I think the current Gunners should have secured the victory early .”

"Since Van Persie moved to Manchester United, the Gunners have never been able to find that efficient gun. Welbeck was bought from Manchester United with great difficulty. As a result, he was directly injured for most of the season. Gun fans in front of the TV, you can try to think Without Martin, this Arsenal team is very likely to achieve ideal results in all competitions."

Guest commentator Xu Yang analyzed.

The Longguo Arsenal fans who watched the live broadcast of the game couldn't help thinking that it was fortunate to have Martin.

No. 60 minutes into the game, the home team began to make substitution adjustments.

Schurrle replaced Caligiuri and Jilavoji replaced Kruse.

The formation has also changed from the original 442 formation to the 4231 formation.

Gilavoj and Gustavo partnered with double midfielders, Xhaka pushed forward and served as the front midfielder, Schurrle and Draxler stood on each side, and Dost was still at the forefront of the striker.

Returning to a familiar formation, Wolfsburg's performances on both ends of the offense and defense have increased significantly.

It's just that the threat growth is not obvious. The main offensive tactics brought about by the change of formation have moved from the wing to the center and ribs.

As we all know, Arsenal's strongest defensive areas are the center and right.

In order to be able to create chances to equalize, Wolfsburg's attack mainly revolved around Draxler on the right.

Tresch, Xhaka and Jilavoji also began to increase their participation in the offense.

All of a sudden, the defensive pressure on Monreal, Coquelin and Koscielny's side increased greatly.

Martin needs to take care of a large area in front of the central defender, and should stick to his post under the pressure of Wolfsburg soldiers.

Unless absolutely necessary.

Xhaka caught the ball at 45° on the right side of the attack and took a step in. Coquelin stretched out his foot and did not block the football that rose from the ground and took off towards the penalty area.

Dost, who got stuck in the position in advance, advanced from the middle of the penalty area and passed Xhaka to the front of the penalty area to head the ball towards the approach corner.

Cech spread his wings like a roc, and blocked the football from the outside of the right goal post with a single palm.

"Dost is beautiful! Cech is wonderful!"

With the threat of Xhaka and Dost's connection, the fanatical atmosphere in the public arena heated up again, and the players on the field were also greatly encouraged.

The invisible and intangible momentum suddenly rose up!

The home fans in the stands couldn't help standing up, dancing excitedly, and cheering for the players on the field.

Xhaka took an offensive right corner with his left foot, and the football flying from the outside to the inside flew to the back point.

Martin jumped high in the crowd, standing out from the crowd like chickens, overpowering Jilavoji and Gustavo and pushing the ball far away.

Ricardo Rodriguez, who prevented Arsenal from counterattacking, happened to be near the landing point, and he took the initiative to meet the ball and shoot furiously.

In order to avoid Walcott, who blocked him from the front, he kicked the football with full strength, but the front sight was not adjusted properly, and it was far higher than the crossbar, hitting the arm of a home fan who did a good job of self-protection.

Ricardo Rodriguez shook his head regretfully, then waved to the fans in apology.

Cech was about to take a short-range goal kick from the backcourt. Wolfsburg's frontcourt players did not rush back, but stayed in the frontcourt.

High defense!

Martin was closely guarded again, and Cech had no choice but to open his feet to find Giroud, who was at the top.

Naldo took the initiative to seek a physical confrontation, and Dante easily slid the ball to Ricardo Rodriguez on the left.

Wolfsburg built the attack from the back and quickly passed Gustavo's transition to Xhaka's feet.

Afraid of Martin's frontal defense, Xhaka distributed the ball to Schurrle on the left.

Ricardo Rodriguez quickly doubled and squeezed Arsenal's defense on the right.

Schurrle pretended to cut inside against Walcott and Bellerin's defense, but actually sent a reverse pass to the left after Ricardo Rodriguez fully raised his speed.

Even though Bellerin is extremely fast, there is no good way to face Ricardo Rodriguez who is facing the ball at high speed and cutting inward.

Ricardo Rodriguez was very comfortable with the ball for the first time, equating to saving unnecessary adjustments. He still had time to look up at his teammates in the penalty area during high-speed running.

When the football was about two meters away from the bottom line, he directly kicked and passed the ball. The upright football passed the upper edge of Bellerin's elongated right thigh, which was too late to defend, and flew to the front of the small penalty area.

"Buzz Dorst!"

Accompanied by the shout of Marcel Leif, the commentator of German Sky TV, the fast-moving Dost huddled his position, faced the incoming ball and finished his header.

The refracted football flies quickly from the corner of the small penalty area on the left in a parabola to the front of the corner of the small penalty area on the other side.

Koscielny, who was waiting in the middle of the small penalty area, judged that it was too late to move the football.

The ghostly running Draxler took advantage of his speed to rush to the right side of the penalty area in front of Coquelin, kicked his feet, and leaned over to meet the ball.

"aoaooaoaooooo—"

The frenzied atmosphere in the mass arena instantly heated up to the extreme.

Cech, who moved to the left, subconsciously stretched out his hand to the left very quickly, but...he didn't touch the football.

"—wowoowo"

At this moment, the overwhelming shouts were instantly replaced by exclamations.

It turned out that a healthy golden figure appeared on the running route of the football!

The Arabic numerals [9] on the back are particularly eye-catching.

"Martin!!!"

I saw Martin quickly running to the goal line, pushing his left foot hard on the ground, making full use of the huge inertia brought by his speed to rush forward.

At the same time, the upper body naturally leaned back, and the right foot swung from bottom to top was lifted to the highest point, and the instep kicked the football that was rubbing against the lower edge of the crossbar and flew towards the goal...

Barb rescue!
