Chapter 106 The situation changes suddenly
Because Arsenal got a draw, they temporarily ranked 4th in the standings.

1st place, Liverpool, 4 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses.

2nd place, Manchester City, 4 wins, 0 draws and 0 losses.

3rd place, Manchester United, 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses.

4th place, Arsenal, 3 wins, 1 draw and 0 losses.

5th place, Tottenham, 3 wins, 0 draws and 1 loss.

6th place, Chelsea, 2 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses.

Because Arsenal scored a draw in this round, the outside world's perception of them has changed, and suddenly they are not optimistic about their first performance in the Champions League.

In case the head coach Arsene Wenger makes another change, Arsenal is likely to be the same as today's game, either draw or lose.

And Arsenal's next schedule is,

After they finished the first round of the Champions League, and then finished the fifth round, they will start to play the English League Cup, and then start their third-line battle at the beginning of the season.

Fortunately, Arsenal made a lot of preparations for signings before the transfer window closed.Equation feels that this third-line battle should not be a big problem.

The most important thing is that the significance of the English League Cup is not as important as the FA Cup. The English League Cup only provides a stage for unknown teams in China.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, big6 teams will only send substitute players to play in the League Cup.

In the case of the FA Cup, the main players will be sent out in many cases.Because, winning the FA Cup can also get a place in the Europa League next season.

The following Premier League fixtures for Arsenal are as follows:
Fifth round against Southampton,
In the 6th round against Tottenham,
Against Brighton in the 7th round,

Against Manchester United in the 8th round,
The 9th round against West Ham United,
The 10th round against Manchester City.

After the end of the fourth round of the Premier League, Arsenal organized an intra-team match on the second day.

Before the start, Professor Wenger said to everyone: "This game is for training, and at the same time let you get to know the new players in the echelon. Try not to work too hard. If you get injured, it will affect our Champions League schedule. .”

Seeing the head coach say this, everyone knows how to play, and they can play seriously, but they don't need to be too desperate.
Immediately, players from the Arsenal echelon came over.

The training match is divided into blue team and red team.The main players are arranged in the two teams.

"By the way, where is Harland going?" Suddenly, assistant coach Arteta discovered that there was one person missing.

"Oh, he went to the bathroom, I forgot to mention." A teammate immediately replied.

Artat nodded, and let everyone wait for a while.

Equation didn't care about the name, thinking it was just the same name and surname.

Then, until Harland, who was 1.94 meters tall, trotted over, Equation was taken aback.

what's going on? ?

Shouldn't Haaland be at Red Bull Salzburg now?Why did you suddenly come to Arsenal? ?
No wonder Huang Taixi always ran to the club before, so it was for this matter!

Why didn't the damn guy tell him in advance?
The equation was suddenly angry and happy.

At this time, the main players couldn't help but glanced at the fierce Harland.

In this regard, Artat explained: "This is little Harland. He just came to Arsenal not long ago. He is the child of the old Harland. The old Harland also played in Manchester City before. Let him go to Arsenal first Echelon, so everyone has no chance to see him, now everyone can get to know him well."

When the assistant coach finished speaking, Harland took the initiative to open his mouth and greeted his teammates.

"interesting!!"

"Old Haaland? I watched him play when I was a kid!"

"He is only 19 years old?? He is 1.9 meters tall?! Looks like another high center forward!"

The main players couldn't help talking in low voices for a while.

The equation does know how powerful Harland's potential is.

So, he's just a little surprised Haaland is at Arsenal now
Soon, the team training match began.

Equation and Harland are teammates on the blue team.

However, Professor Wenger, as the head coach of the blue team, arranged for the equation to only kick the midfielder.

Hearing this arrangement, Fang Fang took a look at the defense, but there were Saliba and Cedric,
But other than that, they have no main players, and the entire frontcourt is full of unfamiliar faces from the echelon.

As for the red team, except for two substitutes, they are all main players!

The equation is almost speechless,

"How do you play this?"

"You still want to fix me in the lower back position?"

"How does this support Harland??"

"Long pass??"

Fang Fang couldn't help complaining in his heart, isn't this a clear arrangement for the blue team? !

However, the training game still had to be played. After being besieged by the red team for 7 minutes, Fang finally grabbed the ball.

Then, he subconsciously dribbled the ball to the frontcourt.

Suddenly, the whistle sounded, and Wenger, the head coach and referee, signaled a foul for stealing the ball!

Fang Fang couldn't laugh or cry.

It's over,

It seems that he really didn't let himself pass the halftime.
Harland also felt helpless seeing this scene, only feeling that he was alone and helpless in front of him.
Soon, after 2 minutes, the defensive teammate of the echelon was robbed and hurriedly passed the football to the equation.

This time, Fang Fang did not choose to dribble again, and raised his arch slightly, only stopping the football to a very comfortable position.

then turn around,
bang
With his back, he resisted Thomas' impact for a second!
Before being knocked down, Fang Fang accurately sent a long pass to the frontcourt according to the real-time map of the stadium drawn in his mind in advance without raising his head!

"pretty!!"

Harland's eyes lit up, and he never expected that the Eastern player could send a long pass to his direction under the collision! !

Harland turned around abruptly, and with a wave of his hand, he shook off Gabriel's pull!
Harland is tall and burly, as fast as a cheetah, chasing the first goal of football!

There was chaos in the rear of the red team!
Ben White and Bellerin quickly returned to the penalty area, but it was too late. After Harland ran in place, he didn't stop the ball, and slammed the football with his right foot!
There was a loud bang!
I saw that the football instantly drew a parabola and fell towards the goal.

The ball was so fast that the goalkeeper Leno was caught off guard. As soon as he jumped back and reached out, the football fell into the net.

The blue team leads 1:0! !
Harland raised his hands happily, then he turned and looked behind, smiled and pointed in the direction of the pass, and said a q.

Fang Zheng ran over and responded with a smile.

Sure enough, although Harland has the appearance of eating people, others still know how to thank him for assists.

At this time, the atmosphere of the audience suddenly changed. Good guy, this volley shot is obviously very powerful.

The main players couldn't help but glance at each other, as if saying:

This little Harland is a bit fierce! !

After Fang Fang walked in, he nodded to Harland with his fingertips and joked: "Remember, I am the second captain of the first team, you boy will hang out with me from now on!"

Harland smiled heartily, "Okay, I'm the second captain!"

Harland can also take jokes, and he already knows that Equation has the same agent as him, so the relationship is naturally different from others.

However, the captain Xhaka also came over and scolded with a smile: "Second captain, you are violating the team rules. It is forbidden to form small groups without permission in our team, of course."

Xhaka suddenly smiled, patted Harland on the shoulder, and said, "It would be best if you were with me, boy!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone couldn't help laughing instantly.

The atmosphere is extraordinarily relaxed and entertaining.

Equation also smiled, and explained to Harland: "We are all joking, there are no small groups in the team, don't worry!"

Harland was taken aback for a moment, and then he couldn't help opening his mouth wide and laughing.

I feel that I have come to the right place by choosing to join Arsenal.

Afterwards, the training game continued. The main red team saw that the new aid was so powerful, so they were naturally unwilling to lose the game.

The two sides kicked open and close in an instant!

The final score was 2:4, Harland scored a goal for the blue team, an own goal for the red team, Lacazette scored twice, Saka and Ronaldo each scored a goal.

During the period, Wenger and Arteta carefully observed the training game and discussed it from time to time.

In the next few days, Harland entered the first team for training, preparing for the first round of the Champions League group match with Bruges.

Two days before the game, the entire Arsenal team flew to Billie's to familiarize themselves with the venue in advance.

The opponent Brugge is also an old acquaintance in the Champions League. They have 18 top league titles in the Ligue 34, second only to Anderlecht's [-] crowns.

This is a team that cannot be underestimated.

9 month 19 day.

The Young Breedel Stadium, which can accommodate 29 people, is full of people!

When Fang Fang was warming up, he looked around the stadium, because it was his first Champions League match, he obviously felt a different hot atmosphere!

Soon, the warm-up was over, and the two teams returned to their respective locker rooms.

"Really? Paris Saint-Germain is still one goal behind?!"

At this moment, Lacazette suddenly let out an exclamation in his seat.

Because the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Galatasaray started more than an hour earlier, we can still see Paris Saint-Germain's Champions League match.

The teammates froze for a moment when they heard this.

"No, Paris Saint-Germain can't even play against the Turkish team?!"

"I look at my phone omg!! The score is 1:0, Paris Saint-Germain is really one goal behind!!"

"Where are the Mbappés? No goals??"

"The game is almost over, they won't really lose, right?!"

The teammates were a little surprised. It can be said that no one felt gloating.

Because everyone knows that only after Paris Saint-Germain wins the game of the weak team, the qualifying situation of this group will be clear. If Paris Saint-Germain capsizes now, maybe they will fight with Arsenal for the chance to qualify!
"There are no weak teams in the Champions League!"

"We have to be careful! Don't give Paris Saint-Germain a chance to fight us!"

"Yes, the first game must be won!"

"This Mbappe! Does he only talk nonsense?!"

Team-mates are feeling a little outraged at Paris Saint-Germain.

The equation also smelled something wrong.It feels that if Paris Saint-Germain finally draws the game, it seems that their group's qualifying situation will become complicated.

However, the equation feels that this situation is also reasonable.

After all, the aircraft carrier Paris Saint-Germain did not capsize once or twice.They don't seem to be the head coach's problem either.

After all, three consecutive head coaches failed to solve the big problem of the aircraft carrier capsized.

Using the method of elimination, it is time to find the problem from the team itself.

But soon, the game will begin.

Players from both sides came to the field, then took pictures and guessed coins.
At this time, the idea of ​​​​the entire Arsenal team has reached a consensus.

This game must be won!

Arsenal's starting lineup today is a 433 formation.

Goalkeeper: Leno.

Backcourt: Ben White, Gabriel, Papastathopoulos, Bellerin.

Midfield: Equation, Thomas, Xhaka.

Frontcourt: Saka, Lacazette, Martinelli.

Head coach Wenger did not change the lineup anymore. Although Harland performed well in the previous team training, he and Arteta did not dare to make rash changes in the Champions League.

Arsenal's first Champions League game must be to win steadily!
After the start of the game, Brugge launched a frenzied rush at home,

However, Arsenal have long been accustomed to this kind of rush, not only often encountered in the Premier League, but also often practiced in team training.

The difference is that the home fans booed collectively, distracting their attention.

But fortunately, Arsenal quickly passed the first 6 minutes without any danger,

Subsequently, Fang Fang led his teammates to launch a high attack!

Although it is not yet known whether Paris Saint-Germain won or not, the equation is already 100% going all out!

After two exchanges of ball rights, Arsenal flew both ways, and Lacazette forced it up in the middle, crushing Bruges' formation in an instant!

At the same time, during the fast running of the equation, he got a through ball from Xhaka and made a gesture to dribble the ball towards the side.

Brugge's midfielder Van Naken followed up hard.

Martinelli put on the ball on the left, but Fang suddenly flashed out of the corner of his eye, using an excellent combination of man and ball, braking to slow down!Step out with your left foot and hit the decelerating football with your heel!
The attack direction changed instantly!
Just at the front of the penalty area, Fang Fang took the ball into the inside!

Brugge's midfielder was so frightened that he braked quickly and stretched out his foot to prevent Equation's in-cut shot!
But it's too late!In the gap formed at this moment, the equation did not adjust at all, and he decisively rubbed the football with the outer instep of his left foot vigorously!
See, in the gap between the personnel, there is a beautiful curved ball rising instantly, flying towards the far post of the goal.

Goalkeeper Ritz's vision was blocked, coupled with a mistake in judgment, he watched the football fly into the inside of the far post in a daze!
The net moves! !
"The ball went in!—"

During the Mandarin commentary of the game, Zhan Jun immediately shouted excitedly,
"One cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops will meet you!!"

"Beautiful cut-in shot!!"

"The dribbling of the equation is so smooth that the opponent Van Naken has no time to stretch out his feet to block it!"

"This is the strength of a star! It doesn't make sense to shoot a goal!!"

"Bruges, the overlord of the league, they are careless!!!"
