Chapter 553 Meat Grinder
Arsenal's counterattack came swiftly and violently.
In the following nearly 5 minutes, the home team set off a round of offensive frenzy. Under the mobilization and organization of the offensive core Cesc Fabregas, Arsenal was like a busy arsenal, rumbling forward, and the offensive wave In the next wave, there are not only fast and accurate passing cooperation, but also skilled and exquisite teamwork, and the performance of stars with outstanding personal abilities. They use a fast and sharp way to redefine their concept of offensive football art football cognition.
In this short period of time, they completed five consecutive shots, almost an average of one per minute. The efficiency is extremely high, and three shots were all within the range of the goal frame. It made Villarreal's goal very jittery.
Villarreal's situation is not very optimistic. They have a feeling that they are facing Barcelona. To be precise, they are more uncomfortable than facing Barcelona.Submarine and Barcelona have met quite a few times in La Liga, and they have long been familiar with the football style of the Catalan team. As for Arsenal, they not only have a skillful cooperation in passing, but their rhythm is very different. It is also more direct and faster. To some extent, this kind of game rhythm is more difficult to deal with than Barcelona.At least, in terms of adaptation, it is a big problem.
Arsenal's pass coordination is too fast and concise. Often the players of the visiting team go up to grab the ball, and before they have time to make a move, the football is quickly moved away. Moreover, the opponent's transfer is not like the back and forth of Barcelona. They will move the football forward more quickly and directly advance to the dangerous zone.
This is the difference between the Premier League and La Liga.Although Arsenal are also a technical team, they are the best in the Premier League after all. They are also good at playing faster and more intense football styles.
During this period of time, the busiest player must be Villarreal's starting goalkeeper Diego Lopez. The frenzy of shooting was blocked.
But the ones with the highest appearance rate should be Cazorla and Mavuba. The former is the starting central midfielder in this game, and the latter is a full-time defensive midfielder. The two faced Arsenal's unscrupulous back and forth attacks. Can only be tired of defending, and even used fouls many times to interrupt the opponent's offensive rhythm. For this reason, the referee's whistle kept ringing, and Mawuba was even given a key "warning" by the referee.
But this did not have much effect. In the face of Arsenal's fierce offensive, Cazorla and Mavuba could only be led by the nose. In desperation, Fan Bizhuang also had to retreat from time to time to assist in defense.
"Although the score is temporarily leading on the field, Villarreal's situation is not very good. Arsenal seems to have the initiative on the field. Maybe they will be able to tie the score in the next attack!"
"Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooily Wow, what a thrilling shot, the football hit the post and flew out of the baseline!"
"Arsenal's offensive wave seems to have no intention of stopping, Villarreal's situation is difficult!"
There was a lot of exclamation in the commentary, and there was a lot of excitement in the stands. The home fans cheered and cheered for their home team. The team is in a good situation and has obvious advantages.
Keira shook her head, curled her lips and said, "Ferissa, Fan's team doesn't seem to be doing well? They've been under pressure from the Gunners for a while. If this continues, they'll probably lose the ball soon."
As she spoke, she added: "However, the Gunners are getting more and more confused. They were able to wrestle with us (Manchester United) a few years ago. In recent years, their performance has been getting worse and their passing is getting better and better. But There are fewer and fewer goals, as it is now, it is completely useless, you can’t score if you are in power!"
"Then you go and cheer for your Manchester United, don't sit here!" Felica said unceremoniously at her, rolled her eyes, "Wait, Uncle Fan will make him look good soon! "
"Are you so confident in Fan?" Keira asked.
"Humph!"
Felisa didn't answer directly, but her attitude was obvious.
Of course she could see that the situation on the court was not good for Villarreal, but she still believed in Fan Bizhuang, because he said that he would teach that annoying guy a profound lesson during the game, Then, never let her down!
Felica fixed her eyes on the young man running in the field, stopped thinking about it, waved her arms, and continued to shout.
.....................................................................................................................
"Speed up the passing rhythm, hit the ball to the opponent's hinterland faster, and complete the shot!"
"Success rate! The success rate must be increased!"
"The situation has been controlled by us, now, it is only a goal!"
Wenger paced back and forth on the sidelines, constantly gesturing to the disciples in the field.He is now in a certain situation of winning. Although the score is temporarily behind, the situation and rhythm of the game have been completely controlled by his team. He believes that as long as he puts more effort, as long as this fierce oppression needs to be persisted for a while , the opponent will definitely not be able to hold on.At that time, it was his team's chance to equalize the score in one fell swoop, or even overtake it!
So he asked his team to put more pressure on the opponent's defense.
On the other side, Villarreal's coach Manuel Pellegrini also stood up, his face was dignified, but there was a faint look of excitement.
Although they are in different leagues and there are not many opportunities to play against each other, how could Pellegrini not try his best to study and understand Arsenal, which once eliminated his team?
In fact, it was within his expectation that the game would evolve into the current situation.After all, Arsenal is a traditional giant in European football. Even if the situation in recent years is not good and it has gone downhill, there are still three nails in the rotten ship, not to mention that Arsenal is not a rotten ship. The Gunners are still very strong today Yes, their football style is also very characteristic, which is completely different from the league opponents encountered in the domestic arena. They pass faster, cooperate better, and attack better. If they want to take advantage of the opponent's home court, Pellegri Neil naturally returned to work hard before the game.
The opening blitz was Pellegrini's first meal for Arsenal.Fortunately, even Manuel Pellegrini didn't expect them to get off to such a perfect start, taking the lead with the first shot, but that's a good thing, the away goal was enough for him and his team The team has more confidence to deal with opponents.
Immediately, after taking the lead, Villarreal tried to continue to attack. If Arsenal was affected by the loss of the ball and the situation was not good, then Villarreal will actively attack and strive to expand the score advantage .If the opponent's ability to adjust is strong, then the team will switch to attacking first and use quick counterattacks to threaten the opponent's backcourt defense. They hold a ball in their hand, and there is no need to meet Arsenal's bayonet.
Arsenal is indeed worthy of being a Premier League giant, with excellent adjustment ability. After conceding the ball, they quickly recovered their mentality and launched a fierce offensive with a more active and high-spirited attitude. During this period, the home team did use Villa Real was firmly suppressed, and might even break the goal at any time.
This is a crisis for Villarreal, but also an opportunity!The more ferocious and fierce the opponent's attack, the more loopholes will inevitably appear in the backcourt defense. It doesn't take many, as long as they can catch it once, Pellegrini's team will have an absolute advantage in the two rounds of the game .
Of course, the most urgent problem now is not to counterattack, but to consolidate the team's midfield defense. Arsenal's offense is too sharp and fierce, and Cazorla and Mavuba are gradually unable to withstand it.
Pellegrini was not too worried, because he had already prepared a strategy for this point.
On the field.
Arsenal's offensive is still fierce, but the performance of the visiting team's players is obviously more active.
Fran and Nihat on the front line turned into avant-garde almost at the same time, pressing everywhere in the frontcourt, and whoever got the ball would rush over quickly, even if they couldn't grab it, they would disrupt the opponent's passing rhythm.
And behind them, Fan Bizhuang also ran wildly in a wide range. His footprints were almost all over the frontcourt, harassing all the Arsenal defenders.
The third line of defense is Cazorla and Mawuba. The two seem to let go of their hands and feet, especially the latter, like a monster released from a cage, with the assistance of his teammates, he keeps sprinting and fighting with his opponent Collision, unable to grab the ball, but also hinder the opponent's passing and cooperation.
And another defensive midfielder, Marcos Senna, who had been quiet before, also became active. He and Mavuba did the same job, that is, they kept running in the midfield and sweeping away, knocking out opponents who might All threatening passes blocked.
Cazorla and the two full-time defensive midfielders almost built a steel line of defense, covering the entire midfield impenetrably. They seemed to have given up attacking, and they had only one purpose in what they did, and that was: destruction!
What is even more speechless is that the three people on the front line are also doing such "harmful to others and not to their own" things, destroying together with the defensive midfielders.
Even if they don't want to attack, they have to disrupt the opponent's rhythm, so that the opponent cannot pass the ball easily or pass through the midfield easily.
A team that is good at offensive football suddenly turned into a group of butchers collectively, turning the entire stadium into a meat grinder. Although the scene became extremely ugly, the effect was obvious. Arsenal's offensive was constantly being suppressed. Interrupted, the rhythm is intermittent, and the momentum of the onslaught is no longer what it was before.
