Chapter 749 Unbeatable Arsenal
Manchester United wanted to use high-intensity pressing to disrupt Arsenal’s organization, but they underestimated Arsenal’s midfield strength.
Both Lucky and Wilshere know how to fight physically, and they are also very good at holding the ball.
This led to their failure to disrupt Arsenal’s overall rhythm despite the pressure they exerted.
From the perspective of the scene, Manchester United is doing more useless running and confrontation, but Arsenal is constantly testing with one pass.
Arsenal has a foundation for passing and controlling. Although they no longer play like this tactically, the ability of individual players to hold the ball is still very good.
This is also the reason why Arsenal can still stabilize when facing Liverpool’s press.
Even Liverpool can hardly disrupt Arsenal’s rhythm quickly, let alone Manchester United.
The game time passed a little bit, and ten minutes later, Manchester United still robbed again, but the effect was not obvious, but it felt like being slipped for fun.
“Manchester United! They obviously haven’t specially trained high-position pressing tactics, and the overall linkage is too poor! Every pressing is one by one, and Arsenal only need to pass the ball to solve the trouble.”
“The core of the high-position press lies in ‘going together’. It is necessary to block the opponent’s passing channels while pressing, but Manchester United has done a poor job in this regard!”
Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray shook his head, he couldn’t stand it anymore.
Manchester United played very hard, but it was too reckless.
And this kind of recklessness is the kind of recklessness that has no brains at all, kicking in chaos and rhythm.
On the other hand, Arsenal played with ease.
This made both the commentator and the fans anxious.
The camera focused on Ferguson’s face in the stands. The old Jazz was also chewing gum at a fast rate, his brows were furrowed, and he was obviously extremely dissatisfied with Manchester United’s performance.
But he is no longer the head coach, and he can’t help it.
Worried to see it!
At this moment, Arsenal suddenly played a wonderful attack on the wing.
Lucky knocked the ball to Mane, and Mane crossed Wilshere. With Wilshere on his back, he rubbed the ball with the outside of his instep and passed it to the neutral behind.
Mane ran at full speed immediately, pulling out a body in an instant.
“Ma Nei is down!”
Andy Gray exclaimed.
The Manchester United fans at Old Trafford also took a breath.
However, Mane didn’t seem to have adjusted, and failed to play the ball immediately. When he adjusted and made a pass, Valencia had already followed, and the ball hit the opponent’s calf and flew out of the baseline.
“Mane failed to kick the ball successfully, but this attack is a dangerous signal. Manchester United can no longer give Arsenal the opportunity to go down. Once the pass is successful, Arsenal will have Lukaku in the penalty area. Kay also moved forward quickly to form the second point of contention, and in this case, Manchester United’s goal is in jeopardy!”
Andy Gray shook his head and said; “We said at the beginning that if Manchester United concedes a goal, their situation will become extremely bad!”
“Arsenal’s corner!”
Robertson stepped forward to take the corner kick.
Robertson raised his hand and immediately took a corner kick.
The corner kick was extremely close to the goal. Manchester United goalkeeper De Gea reacted quickly and knocked the ball out with both hands.
Kanter, who was protecting from the rear, looked at the falling ball. He failed to stop, and the ball hit his calf and flew towards Pogba.
How could Pogba give up such a good opportunity to give the ball to Rashford with one kick.
“Kante made a mistake, Pogba sent the ball to the wing, Manchester United’s counterattack!”
Andy Gray’s eyes lit up.
This may be Manchester United’s best chance to score.
Kanter hurriedly chased back.
But Rashford’s speed was too fast. He and Ibrahimovic completed a collision with the wall and passed Bellerin.
Rashford directly chooses to cut inside.
Seeing Rashford getting closer to the goal, Arsenal’s defense suddenly panicked.
“Stop him!”
Martinez roared and came to the near post.
Jimenez stepped forward quickly.
But before the opponent was in position, Rashford made a cross.
The ball flew towards Ibrahimovic, who stood upright, which made it difficult for Hummels to make a defensive prediction.
At this moment, the ball slipped through Ibrahimovic’s crotch.
“Slipball?”
Just as Hummels was about to make a move, Ibrahimovic swung his left foot toward the back side, a movement similar to a flower-arranging kick, and the ball flew into the far corner of the goal.
Manchester United scored a goal with this wonderful counterattack!
“GOAL!!!!!!”
“Ibrahimovic, a light leg swing hook, the whole movement is easy and freehand, he helped Manchester United get the leading goal!”
“Of course, Rashford’s breakthrough is also very exciting, Manchester United’s counterattack is too fast!”
Old Trafford exploded.
Manchester United fans cheered violently.
They were extremely excited. In less than 20 minutes, they scored a goal, and their hopes of advancing were greatly increased.
Lucky stopped and looked at Arsenal’s goal helplessly.
Actually, a large part of this goal should be blamed on Kanter’s stop problem.
However, Kanter also looked annoyed at this time, obviously he also knew what the problem was.
Blame it now, but it will continue to ossify Kanter’s already unstable heart.
Lucky first pressed his hand towards the sidelines to stabilize Mourinho who was about to explode.
Mourinho stared at Kanter fiercely, and he did not allow such a mistake.
But after seeing Le Kai, Mourinho still held back.
Lucky has his own judgment, so he restrains himself.
Mourinho could only return to the bench with a stinky face.
There are few people in the world who can stabilize Mourinho, and Lucky is obviously one of them.
“Hey! Since it has happened, don’t think too much, and find a way to make up for it next.”
Le Kai took the initiative to come to Kanter’s side to comfort him, and finally tapped on Kanter’s shoulder and left.
Kanter nodded in frustration.
He is still extremely sad about the conceded goal.
“Guys, don’t pay too much attention to the conceded goal. We still have a one-goal lead. Focus on the game. Our offense is still effective. Next, we must concentrate and believe in yourself!”
Le Kai is constantly shouting to attract the attention of the players.
At the same time, he looked at the Manchester United players who were celebrating. Did these guys celebrate for too long?
If the referee doesn’t stop it, he will go to protest.
The referee quickly stopped it.
Manchester United players returned to the half with smiles on their faces. This goal obviously boosted their morale.
“Arsenal conceded the ball, we didn’t expect it to be in this way, Kante’s stop was wrong, but we need to understand that any player makes mistakes and as a defensive player, this kind of mistake Even more deadly!”
“Kay has been shouting and encouraging his teammates. This is the most important thing for the captain to do, and although Manchester United recovered a goal, they are still one goal behind!”
“The next step is the key. Facing the morale of Manchester United, how should Arsenal respond?”
The goal greatly boosted Manchester United’s morale, and their confidence was also kicked out.
And Arsenal’s response to this is simple.
Boom! !
Lucky hit De Gea’s palm with a long shot, the ball deviated and hit the goal post, and bounced off the baseline.
Le Kai stood still, with a fierce look in his eyes.
Arsenal’s response is very simple, that is. just go back!
“Hiss!!!!!!”
Andy Gray gasped, even now he was sweating for Manchester United.
This long-range shot was powerful and heavy, but Van de Gea lost the ball after a slow reaction.
And Lucky’s attitude is also very good, Arsenal’s state at this time.
They were not hit, but became more courageous.
The fact is the same. When Manchester United reorganized their offense, they felt more pressure.
The difficulty of each pass increases and becomes more difficult.
Arsenal’s pressing rhythm in the frontcourt has also become fierce and fast.
This makes Manchester United players have to be vigilant enough. As long as they relax a little bit, Arsenal can immediately launch a threatening attack.
Pogba became more frightened as he kicked.
Are these guys invincible?
