Football: Don’t talk about feelings, I’m just an AI

Chapter 37 The next goal must be mine
  The Iron-Blooded Blue Army is really not called for nothing.

Chelsea, which just won the Champions League in May this year and leads the Premier League, played very tenaciously.

After falling behind by two goals, not only did they not collapse, but they aroused their ferocity, when they were no longer obsessed with causing destruction.

Instead, he played like a champion.

In the 21st minute, Torres ran long distance and successfully attracted the attention of Arsenal's defense. Hazard took advantage of the chaos, cut into the penalty area, grabbed a shot in front of the goal, and the football missed the goal post and flew out of the baseline.

Then, it was Hazard again. He arched his huge buttocks in the penalty area, and then suddenly hit from behind. Fortunately, the football hit Santos.

After blocking three attacks from Chelsea, Arsenal began to counterattack.

In the 27th minute, Arsenal got a free kick in the frontcourt about 25 meters away from the goal. There was no free kick expert in the team, so Arteta took the penalty.

The football went directly into Cech's arms.

In the following game, both sides refused to give in to each other, the pace was fast and very intense.

The back-and-forth confrontation made the fans on both sides more and more excited, and bursts of cheers infected the fans outside the stadium who were watching the live broadcast on the LED screen.

There was actually a time when the cheers outside the stadium overwhelmed the cheers inside.

That was the roar of the Chelsea fans, louder off the pitch than inside.

In addition to the large number of people off the field, the reason was that they found that after the two teams increased their speed, the Arsenal midfielder was a little impatient when organizing and handling the ball, and the passing threat became smaller.

If this continues, Chelsea will recover the score sooner or later.

Their vision is indeed ferocious, they are experts, and they are worthy of being hardcore fans.

In the 32nd minute, Lampard still sent a through ball under Cazorla's tight guard.

This kick was passed to Hazard, but the goalkeeper caught a glimpse of Torres out of the corner of his eye, and the goalkeeper's IQ exploded.

He raised his leg and pretended to shoot. The Arsenal defender moved in response, but his raised leg did not fall and the football missed.

Vulnerabilities also arise.

Torres stabbed his way through the crowd, and no defender could keep up with him.

Mertesacker quickly raised his hand to indicate offside to the referee.

But neither the linesman nor the referee had any reaction.

Chelsea fans have become the owners of the Emirates Stadium.

"Toni, come on!"

"T9, charge!"

Torres' speed is the fastest among everyone in the penalty area.

Mannone's expression was calm, but his heart was in panic. He opened his arms and jumped out before Torres could even take off his feet.

Torres's reaction is extremely quick, which is worthy of being world-class.

He knocked the football horizontally in time and passed Mannone.

The football goes into the empty net.

2: 1!

Chelsea pulled a goal back in the first half, and the suspense of the game became confusing.

"Manone's prediction failed. After he made the save, Torres's focus was still there, and he changed direction in time and pushed the goal open."

"Arsenal has two problems now, one is goalkeeping and the other is midfield organization.

During the injuries to Szczesny and Wilshere,

If Arsenal does not want to fall out of the championship sequence, they must have better candidates for these two positions. "

After Torres scored, he ran all the way to the corner flagpole, with his teammates following closely behind him...

...

...

The game restarted after three points.

Chelsea, still one goal behind, continued to attack. After Arsenal kicked off, they pressed high and quickly cut off the ball.

Cazorla had no choice but to foul Ramirez.

Chelsea won a free kick 30 meters from the left side of the pitch.

Lampard took the penalty and the ball went around the wall and hit the crossbar, missing the best chance to equalize the score in the first half.

The two sides then played two rounds each, but neither created a chance.

Entering the halftime break with a score of 2:1. In the visiting team’s locker room, Di Matteo affirmed the players’ efforts and then gave everyone a bowl of “chicken soup”.

home team locker room,
  Wenger tried his best to sound relaxed. This team is still too young and it is better to encourage than criticize.

"We have a one-goal advantage and will play defensive counterattack in the second half. Xia, we hope to see more cooperation from you..."

At the beginning of the second half, neither side made any substitutions. Chelsea still pressed forward, but Arsenal defended, and Xia Qi also moved further back.

After the kick-off, Chelsea continued to attack forward hard.

For five minutes, Arsenal were suppressed and didn't even get past half-time.

During this period of time, Arsenal fans were very nervous and worried. On the contrary, Wenger and Pat Rice looked relaxed and did not know what to say in the coach's chair. After speaking, Pat Rice laughed heartily.

The two of them saw the changes in Xia Qi and the changes in the midfield.

When defending, Xia Qi will retreat to help Arteta get the ball, so that Arteta can concentrate on forming two defensive gates with Cazorla, one on the left and one on the right, which greatly improves the safety of the penalty area.

When counterattacking, Xia Qi used himself as a blast point in the frontcourt to attract defenders to double-team, creating opportunities for Giroud on both sides and in the middle.

This is the opposite of Arsenal's traditional two-wings strategy of grabbing points in the middle. One is "one for everyone" and the other is "everyone for one."

In fact, the final goal of both is the same.

Wenger and Pat Rice saw that they had reached the same destination through different paths, so they looked relaxed.

Wenger laughed and scolded Xia Qi: "Because I know how to eat people, I force Chelsea to double-team, and involve Chelsea's defense through movement...

And Pat Rice was amused by Wenger's words: "He has eaten several times today, isn't he full yet?"

Xia Qi who eats children!

How brutal!
  on the field,
  Xia Qi suddenly made a pass on the way to the breakthrough. Giroud relied on Terry to volley the ball and the football flew into the stands.

After three points, Xia Qi rushed into the penalty area with Lampard on his back, and played a one-two with Giroud in a small space before Terry and David Luiz flanked.

With a knock of his heel, Walcott followed up and pushed the ball over the crossbar with one hand by Cech.

As time passed, fans finally saw the changes in Arsenal.

Xia Qi used breakthroughs to attract double-teams, and then involved Chelsea's defense through movement. Finally, he passed the football to the defensive holes, and the frontcourt players were a threat when they got the ball.

Walcott, Chamberlain, and Giroud saw the hope of opening the first goal, so they moved more actively. The more active they were, the more support they received from Xia Qi's passing. The more support, the more threatening...

Under Xia Qi's teamwork, Arsenal played better and better...

"Xia, let's make everyone better."

"This organizational style is quite unique."

"It's a bit like the style of the Brazilian bricklayer."

In the stands, the tension disappeared and Arsenal fans had smiles on their faces.

Arsenal's changes make Chelsea uncomfortable.

If Xia Qi is not double-teamed, he will eat him alive.

Double-team him, if he keeps kicking like this, he'll end up dead in the end.

The mentality of Chelsea players began to deteriorate, and the "power" on the court unknowingly tilted towards Arsenal.

In the 68th minute, Arteta cut off the ball and Arsenal began to counterattack.

Xia Qi broke through with the ball, and Ramirez stepped forward alone.

His idea is simple. He is a hero when defending against Xia Qi alone.

But being a hero is not that easy.

Xia Qi didn't even look at him, he just pushed the ball out and accelerated with his feet!
  He didn't even bother to make a fake move, and used his speed and body arrogantly to directly knock him away.

Eat it raw!

Another dish has been added to Xia Qi’s menu.

Chelsea fans, when they saw Ramirez volunteering, thought he had found a defensive method, and they all applauded him.

As a result, he didn't hold up even a single blow and was killed directly.

Applauds are also called boos.

Ramirez did not regard him as a hero, but was criticized by the fans: he failed more than he succeeded!

Chelsea's backcourt was in a hurry, Lampard and Mikel rushed towards Xia Qi, and Arsenal's front three immediately found their own way...

The next goal must be me!
