The ball was thrown into the air, and the ball was thrown into the air.

Hleb heard Wenger's shout, and he ran to Arsenal's half as soon as possible.

Gilberto, who was holding the ball, also saw Hleb waving at him for the ball. Seeing that Bale, who had been entangled with him, did not catch up, Gilberto passed the ball.

But what they didn't expect was that in addition to Hleb hearing Wenger's shout, Mascherano, who was standing a little to the right of the center circle, also heard it.

So when Gilberto's pass just rolled towards Hleb along the grass, Mascherano rushed out quickly from the midfield and intercepted the pass halfway.

After the ball was intercepted, Mascherano took two steps forward and passed the ball to Ibrahimovic at the front of the penalty area.

After Ibrahimovic received the ball and turned around, he faced the pressure from Senderos. He simply used his left foot to move the ball to the left front, and then used a simple man-ball pass to shake off Senderos who was too hard.

However, this time Arsenal's attack was just a normal advance, so their defense remained very stable after the ball was intercepted, and the two full-backs quickly returned to the vicinity of the penalty area.

Kolo Toure next to him saw that Senderos was passed by Ibrahimovic, so he asked Clichy to take over his defense against Torres, and immediately rushed up to prepare for Ibrahimovic.

Facing Toure who was rushing up, Ibrahimovic, who had already accelerated, slowed down with an abrupt stop, and then used the outside of his right foot to push the ball to the right. At the same time, he changed direction to shake open the gap and raised his right foot to shoot.

But Kolo Toure had already caught up. He fell to the ground and made a gesture to fly over the hole of the gun. Who knew that Ibrahimovic was not going to shoot this time. Instead, he completely got rid of Kolo Toure's defense with a touch of his right foot above the football.

When Ibrahimovic and Kolo Toure were entangled, Senderos, who had just been passed by him, came back and got stuck in Ibrahimovic's shooting route again. However, because he rushed back a little fast, his body center of gravity was tilted towards the goal at this time.

Seeing Senderos' situation, Ibrahimovic immediately made a move to pass the ball to Torres in front of him on the right, and the panicked Senderos immediately stretched out a leg to block Ibrahimovic's passing route.

But when he stretched out his leg completely, Ibrahimovic used the inside of his right foot to buckle the football to the left side of the penalty area again.

This dunk completely fooled Senderos, and then he rushed into the penalty area with the ball before Kolo Toure, who had just gotten up from the ground, rushed over.

Facing Lehmann who was ready to attack to block his shooting angle, Ibrahimovic dribbled the ball with his left foot, trapped Kolo Toure on the right side of his body, and then shot directly. The football passed Lehmann's fingers and went straight to the right post of the goal along the grass.

"Bang!"

With the crisp sound of the football hitting the post, Ibrahimovic's wonderful personal performance also ended perfectly!

"Ah ... "You tell me this is a football that a 1.95 meter tall guy from Northern Europe can play? He singled out Arsenal's defense! Kolo Toure and Senderos, two Arsenal central defenders, were defeated by him twice in just a dozen seconds! Even though Lehmann had expanded his defense to the maximum, he couldn't stop this great goal! Zlatan! Zlatan Ibrahimovic! Thank God! Let Li bring this man from Italy to Elland Road!"

In Eddie Gray's almost crazy commentary, the stands of Elland Road broke out in violent cheers. All Leeds United fans were celebrating Ibrahimovic's goal. The word "Zlatan" kept echoing over Elland Road!

Ibrahimovic first enjoyed the praise from the fans near the corner flag, and then ran to the Leeds United bench and hugged Li Shiguang for a good celebration!

As soon as Arsenal kicked off, the referee blew the whistle to end the first half, 1:0, Leeds United entered the halftime break with a small advantage!

15 minutes later, the two sides changed sides and continued the game.

Wenger is worthy of being a tactical master. In the second half, he immediately adjusted Arsenal's formation.

The original diamond-shaped midfield became a trapezoidal shape as Fabregas retreated to the defensive midfielder position. In this way, the retreat was very deep.

Fabregas can comfortably organize the attack under the protection of Gilberto.

Seeing this situation, Li Shiguang was not panicked.

He simply let the four midfielders stand horizontally in the center line, and also specifically told Toure and Mascherano that as long as Fabregas did not pass the midfield, he could do whatever he wanted, but as long as he passed the midfield, whether there was a ball or not, they both had to get close to defend immediately!

In the second half, this situation lasted for almost 30 minutes. Wenger, who had been unable to equalize the score, finally got anxious. He replaced Hleb and Gilberto with Ljungberg and Van Persie respectively, and used three forwards to tell Li Shiguang that he was going to let go!

Seeing Wenger's move, Li Shiguang also made substitutions in time. After replacing Pique and Silva, whose physical strength had declined more, he even let Bale and Camoranesi return to the full-back position directly, and did not participate directly, showing a posture of defending to the end!

However, Li Shiguang's transformation into Mourinho also angered Wenger, who had always had a good impression of him, and he cursed at the sidelines.

In the last 15 minutes, Arsenal pressed forward and the three forwards attacked Leeds United's defense line in turn.

On the other hand, Leeds United just defended their penalty area and refused to come out. After several consecutive interceptions, they did not organize a counterattack at all, and directly made a long pass to the two forwards in the frontcourt. Although the scene was a bit ugly, it also made Arsenal unable to find a way to enter Leeds United's penalty area.

Finally, the 3 minutes of stoppage time in the second half also came to the last second after Arsenal completed the last corner kick attack.

After seeing that the corner kick taken by Ljungberg was headed out of the penalty area by Kompany, the referee also blew the whistle to end the game.

Amid the cheers of the surrounding fans, Leeds United also defeated the strong enemy Arsenal at home as they wished and got these precious 3 points!
