Chapter 118 Battle against Southampton, meet Little Yoshida again!!

Due to a fierce match with Newcastle United, this Wenger has a certain rotation.

The goalkeeper is still Szesny.

The back line is Jan Million, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Gibbs.

Sarnia hasn’t been in particularly good form this season after returning from injury, and he’s older and needs to be rotated.

In midfield are Cazorla, Arteta and Ramsey.

Small threats are more brittle and also need to be spared.

Unfortunately, there are no good substitutes in the positions of Cazorla and Arteta, so Wenger does not dare to let the two take turns.

The centre-forward started by Olivier Giroud.

On either side are Walcott and Chamberlain.

Both happen to be from Southampton’s youth academy and are very familiar with the place.

On the bench sat Lu Junfeng, Bo Plane, Hot Birds, Little Threat, Coquelin Mertesack, goalkeeper Martinez.

Southampton’s starting line-up was goalkeeper Boruc.

Four defenders Jack Koch, Nozawa Fonte, Maya Yoshida, Luke Shaw

Backback Schneiderlin, Steven Davis.

Pang Qiong up front, Gaston Ramirez, Guly.

Center Lambert.

Maya Yoshida has become a regular central defender.

And left-back Luke Shaw will be Ingoland’s main left-back in the future, and he is very capable of opposition.

The match was scheduled to start at half past one in the morning and was not broadcast.

However, many fans tried their best to watch this match, because it was another Asian derby between Lu Junfeng and Maya Yoshida!

Unexpectedly, Maya Yoshida also gained a foothold in the Premier League and became a regular starter for Southampton.

And Lu Junfeng is already a super star in the Premier League at this time! The confrontation between the two must be very exciting.

Unfortunately, Wenger is still careful in his use of Lu Junfeng and will not let him start consecutive games in a weekly double.

The competition officially began soon.

Arsenal are counter-dominant and control the situation on the pitch.

But Southampton’s defence was tight and didn’t give Arsenal a chance.

They don’t care about the scene, even at home, they are resolute in implementing the defensive counter-attacking tactic, because in the last meeting, they were really hammered by Arsenal.

They would rather be ugly and they don’t want to get five or six goals from Arsenal.

Arsenal’s core fatigue was a bit of fatigue, plus there were several changes up front, and there were some problems with cooperation, which failed to form effective scoring opportunities.

In the 34th minute, Oxlade-Chamberlain on the left was pressed back to the back line, but the ball was passed too lightly and was tackled.

Zhan Million rushed over to relieve the siege and kicked the ball to the feet of his opponent again.

Gibbs stepped forward to intercept, made a wrong entry and exit, and the ball came to the side of Southampton midfielder Ramirez.

Ramirez pulled out his leg and shot through Arsenal’s goal! Arsenal trailed 1:0!

Now Arsenal can only press the attack!

In the 40th minute, Mikel Arteta was brought down the ball on the left side of the pitch.

Arsenal won a free-kick.

Walcott stood in front of the ball.

He curved the ball to the goal!

Opponent midfielder Guli volleyed and missed the right position!

The ball leaked, Giroud just arrived, did not miss the opportunity, and directly burst into the goal!

Goal!

Scored!

Arsenal lucky goal! They equalized 1:1!

It was Giroud’s 9th goal for Arsenal and the 6th in the Premier League! The race continued and the two sides returned to the same running line.

In the 45th minute, Ramsey made a long pass to the front.

Walcott plugged in at high speed and poked the ball into the goal!

But the ball was ruled offside.

At the end of the first half, the two sides drew 1:1.

At the start of the second half, Arsenal stepped up their attack, but instead gave Southampton a number of counter-attacking opportunities.

Fortunately, Szesny was in good form and kept the goal from conceding.

In the 70th minute, Wenger finally made an adjustment and replaced Chamberlain with Lu Junfeng.

Facing the team in the second half, you still have to score 3 points!

At this time, Lu Junfeng played on the left wing, and Giroud continued to flesh the opponent’s defender in the middle. However, Wenger instructed Lu Junfeng to cut more inside and attack the opponent’s center.

Not long after Lu Junfeng came on the field, he headed the ball to Walcott.

But Walcott’s powerful shot from the right side of the edge of the box was saved by the opposing goalkeeper.

In the 73rd minute, Southampton fought back again.

Steven Davies crossed straight through Arsenal’s defence.

Ramirez received the ball and advanced, Koscielny rushed to intercept, only to be pulled down by Ramirez.

Then Ramirez shot hard!

However, the referee determined that Ramirez had committed a foul on Koscielny first, and the Southampton player was very angry that the goal was not counted, and surrounded the referee to ask for explanations.

The fans at the scene were also booed!

Fortunately, the referee still insisted on the penalty, this goal does not count, the two teams are still 1:1.

It didn’t take long for Wenger to make another substitution, replacing the somewhat physically induced Kasola with a hot bird.

This time Arsenal switched to the 442 formation.

Lu Junfeng and Giroud double center top the front.

Hot bird on the left, Walcott on the right.

In the middle, Ramsey and Arteta sit.

The back line hasn’t changed.

Tactically no longer pursue control of the midfield, that is, big feet forward, let two centers and two wingers solve the problem.

Midfielder Ramsey can cut in appropriately, but Arteta must stay to protect the defence.

In fact, it is more like the 424 formation, because the 4 people in the front court are all forwards…
