Chapter 418 Xiao Zhan 1
Gooooal!!! Newcastle United took the lead in breaking the deadlock. The goal was scored by Newcastle United captain, England's legendary star---"
"Alan-Sherer-" In the 17th minute of the first half, the captain of Newcastle United and England's legendary star Alan. Shearer took the lead for Newcastle United. Unfortunately, this is not the first goal of the season. At the same time, in the match between Aston Villa and Bolton, striker Phillips opened the record in the fifth minute of the game and scored the first goal of the Premier League this season. Next, Bolton scored two goals in a row in two minutes, scored by Kevin. Davis and Chopper. In addition, in the game between Charlton and Sunderland, Bent also broke Charlton's gate in the eleventh minute.
"But this goal is very important to Shearer..."
With the words of the live commentator, Alan can be seen in the big shot. Shearer hugged Don Jack excitedly. The two had been lying on the grass. Shearer's jersey was about to be torn by his teammates, but he still kept saying something in Don Jack's ear.
"It's really important!" The commentator continued: "Three months ago, Shearer announced that he was going to retire, but the team's coach Sonnes persuaded him to play for another year. Jack's joining moved the legendary striker, and he agreed. Now this goal proves that he made the right choice. Jack's pass gave Shear a good chance.
"This is also Alan. Shearer scored his 197th goal for Newcastle United!"
The commentator said, "In an interview last Christmas, Shearer said that he hoped to score 200 goals for Newcastle United, so he could retire without any remark. Now he is not far from this goal!"
It's really happy to score the first goal. Shearer is most grateful to Don Jack. The pass just now was so beautiful that he could shoot safely. Such an opportunity is rare.
As he gets older, Shearer's physical fitness is getting worse and worse. He runs less in the front court and naturally has fewer opportunities. In fact, his personal shooting ability has not deteriorated. He is a natural shooter.
However, Arsenal did not change anything because of this goal.
After the game restarted, the two teams immediately stepped into a tense rhythm. In the initial testing stage, the two teams could not let go. It can be said that both sides were cautious. Arsenal was not too forward, and Newcastle United did not dare to let go of the attack. Although there were many opportunities, the pace of the game was not too fast.
After Shearer scored, the situation changed.
Arsenal can be more open to attack. Newcastle United has a goal advantage in hand, and the pressure in their hearts is much less. Naturally, the attack is also very open. Gradually, both teams have entered a state. As the pace of the game becomes faster, the offensive space of both sides is getting smaller and smaller. The fast-paced game makes the fans enjoy watching. After the two teams had no room to advance the attack, the two sides were constantly looking for opportunities to fight back.
"You fight back once, and I fight back once. This rhythm of the game is the best."
A commentator of China Sina Sports TV said: "Newcastle United and Arsenal are both offensive-oriented teams. The games between the two sides will not leave too much space for each other. It is conceivable that the two teams play like this."
"Newcastle United is now one goal ahead, but for the two teams, the advantage of one goal is not big, and there will be many chances to score goals in the whole game."
The commentator seemed to say that at the point, Newcastle United's attack was over, and Arsenal's counterattack broke through the door guarded by Gibung!
In Newcastle United's attack, Dyer's flying shot on the side was catch by goalkeeper Lehman's hands. After that, Arsenal launched a quick counterattack from the backfield through a series of passes. Yongberry made a cross near the bottom line on the right side of the penalty area. Van Persie blocked the shot from a small angle in front, and the ball passed through the net between the near post and Gwen.
One to one, Arsenal equalized the score.
Arsenal's attack speed is too fast. This is their advantage over Newcastle United. However, when Newcastle United's attack is started, as long as they adapt to the rhythm, Arsenal's defense is also dangerous. For Arsenal, equalizing the score is not the purpose. Now if the Gunners want to win, it's up to him. How did we widen the gap?
This is also what Arsenal people pursue!
Wenger sat firmly in the coach's seat and watched the game. He was not sure about the game. After Vieira left, Arsenal's attack was actually not much weak. Of course, Vieira is good, but he is not there. Other players of Arsenal will also be on the top, and even other players can not be suppressed without Vieira. Naturally, there will be rapid growth, which is also an important reason why Wenger sold Vieira.
Star players are good, but star players will always cause state suppression to other players. If star players have the opportunity to perform, other players will naturally have fewer opportunities.
What Arsenal is most worried about now is not this, but the defense problem.
Arsenal has never paid attention to defense. All England knows that Wenger's team never likes defense, and they use attack to win every time. But Wenger himself knew that it was not that he didn't like defense, but that Arsenal had no choice! Of course, it's good to introduce a few star defenders, but that requires the support of pounds. Arsenal's economic ability has not been good, and the position of defender is often the most expensive. A better central defender is worth 10 million pounds, and 10 million pounds can buy a few potentials for Arsenal. Young players.
That's why Wenger has been asking for an attack!
This is the most economical way...
Look at Arsenal's offensive line. Bergkamp is Arsenal's constant passing master. Henry is the world's top striker, but he grew up in Arsenal, and Pires is the same. When Yongberg and other old players came to Arsenal, he didn't spend much money at all. The front court is also Reyes spent Arsenal. A lot of money, this is an uneconomical deal.
Since he bought Reyes, Wenger has never bought more than 10 million pounds of front-court players, but Arsenal's front line is recognized to be in the top three in the world!
This is Wenger's shrewd abacus!
As for the defense line, Arsenal has not improved. The main problem is still economic pressure. If Arsenal has a rich boss like Abramovich, Wenger also wants to make the guard line as stable as Chelsea. At that time, which team will be Arsenal's opponent!?
But that's obviously impractical...
Now Arsenal has been using attack to suppress the opponent's attack, thus reducing the pressure on the defense line. It turns out that their approach is right. The pace of the two teams' game is very fast, and Arsenal is more dominant on the scene, so Newcastle United naturally has fewer opportunities, and even in three minutes, Don Jack did not touch the ball. In this way, Arsenal's defense will go through fewer tests, and Newcastle United will have fewer opportunities.
In the twenty-ninth minute, Arsenal scored again!
This is a penalty!
In Arsenal's attack, Yonberry got a chance in the right rib of the penalty area. His continuous breakthroughs made Newcastle United's defense chaotic. He even broke through the penalty area line. As a result, Newcastle United's full-backer Babayaro couldn't help tripping him from behind, and referee Bennett awarded a penalty---
Henry achieved it overnight!
Two to one.
The first half lasted for 30 minutes, and the game entered the ** stage, and the smell of gunpowder between the two teams became stronger and stronger.
