Chapter 81: Facade

After the initial test, Arsenal quickly caught the rhythm of the midfield, which also made Sky Sports commentator Paul Merson breathe a sigh of relief.

At first, he thought Arsenal's old problem had come back.

As a Premier League giant, Arsenal's record in European competitions is somewhat terrible, and even often has upsets.

When Paul Merson saw Arsenal's unstable performance at the beginning, his heart skipped a beat, thinking that Arsenal had started to let themselves go again.

But soon, Arsenal regained the situation and quickly stabilized the midfield.

"Okay! Arsenal always likes to play this kind of heartbeat game. Fortunately, they quickly adjusted their own state, and now the game officially begins"

Accompanied by Paul Merson's words, Lucky stood directly in the middle circle, and his position was almost parallel to Cazorla's.

This is also a statement of Arsenal.

They are going to attack!

"Damn it!"

Tielemans was very anxious, and the current Arsenal gave him a bad feeling.

At the beginning of the game, Arsenal still gave some opportunities, but now this Arsenal team plays very, very rigorously.

Every time Tielemans wanted to touch the ball, he would encounter the pressure of the Arsenal players, which made it difficult for him to hold the ball well.

Tielemans has good ability to get rid of the ball, but his speed is not fast.

However, this ability to get rid of the ball is not enough in front of Arsenal. Arsenal's regional cooperative pressing blocked him tightly.

The most important thing is Arsenal's two defensive midfielders!

Luka and Kante!

Although they don't want to admit it, these two people have the ability to completely block themselves in a one-on-one situation.

"Yuri! Come back and receive the ball!"

Teammates are calling Tielemans. Arsenal's pressing in the front court makes it difficult for them to play their offensive characteristics, and even requires the front court players to retreat to help stabilize.

Tielemans can only retreat to the position of the defensive midfielder to receive the ball.

But his most comfortable position is still the receiving position on the right front side.

Disrupted!

At the beginning of the game, Tielemans felt great pressure.

Tielemans just got the ball and wanted to turn around, but Di Maria and Cazorla rushed over.

The two formed a siege in an instant.

Faced with Arsenal's sudden attack, Tielemans seemed extremely panicked.

Di Maria was blocking in front, and Cazorla pressed frantically, even hugging Tielemans with his whole body.

Tielemans felt very annoyed, but he couldn't push Cazorla away.

At this time, Di Maria suddenly hooked the ball out with a hook.

Oops!

Tielemans looked shocked.

He was in the defensive midfielder position, and if he lost the ball in this position, Arsenal's players could face their own defense line directly.

He immediately looked up and saw Di Maria rushing directly into the penalty area at the shortest distance in the middle.

Anderlecht's defense line also suddenly became a mess.

Di Maria dribbled the ball diagonally, which also caused Anderlecht's defense line to move to the right as a whole.

Full-back Acheampong kept a close eye on Di Maria. As long as the opponent made a move, he would hit him without hesitation.

At this time, Di Maria suddenly paused.

Now!

Acheampong stopped and hit Di Maria directly.

But after the sudden stop, Di Maria suddenly started again.

Due to the time difference between the sudden stop and the sudden move, Acheampong missed.

He even stretched out his hand to grab Di Maria, but he couldn't even grab the opponent's jersey.

At this time, Di Maria was already facing the opponent's goal.

"Di Maria stopped and walked quickly, he got rid of Acheampong and pulled out a shooting gap. What choice will he make?"

Di Maria didn't even turn his head, and he didn't think of passing the ball.

At this time, it was a race against time, and his position was very good.

Out of the confidence of the striker, he had to do this ball himself!

Bang!

Di Maria's shot was very cunning.

The whole person was on the right side, but he chose to shoot in the direction of the left goal post.

This is the opposite direction of the body movement, so the goalkeeper cannot make a center of gravity shift in the first time.

Even if the speed of this ball is not fast!

Sure enough, Anderlecht's goalkeeper Proto faced this shot, and when his body weight tended to the right, he forcibly stretched out his left foot to touch the ball.

But it was still an inch short, and he could only watch the ball pass in front of his toes.

He longed for his teammates to help fill in the position, but unfortunately Anderlecht's defenders had not yet entered the goal range.

Everyone could only watch the ball hit the left goal post and then roll into the goal.

Only 9 minutes after the first half, Arsenal scored a goal.

This goal made Anderlecht lose his temper.

From counter-grabbing to scoring, Arsenal was extremely decisive and swift, and did not give Anderlecht any chance to react.

Swift and deadly!

"Arsenal scored a goal!!! In just 9 minutes, Arsenal scored a goal. A beautiful counter-attack in the frontcourt, Di Maria scored Arsenal's first goal of the game!"

Paul Mossen was happy!

Really happy!

You guys are shouting!

No matter how loudly you shout, you will still be beaten to death by us!

This is the absolute difference in strength!

Paul Mossen said proudly: "This is the difference in strength. I admit that Anderlecht is a giant in the Belgian league, but looking at the whole of Europe, especially when facing giants like Arsenal, many of their things may not be so effective."

"Anderlecht should re-examine itself. Some tactics are effective in the league, but it does not mean that they are still effective in the Champions League, facing a team of Arsenal's level!"

Immediately, he turned his fire to Tielemans and said; "And Tielemans, his provocation before the game became the biggest laughing stock of this game. We encourage young players to be confident, but not arrogant! When facing some players, he needs to maintain the most basic respect!"

Paul Mossen's words were recognized by many fans.

For most fans, they don't know Tielemans, but they know Lucky.

A young man is so crazy when he first arrives.

The most important thing is that he hasn't played out the effect yet, which is very disgusting.

In the Belgian sports live broadcast room, commentator Deret also lost his voice instantly.

At the moment when Arsenal scored, he was shocked, and then his whole face turned red.

His face was swollen after being hit!

Roseman on the side couldn't help shaking his head. He didn't know what the other party was thinking, but the gap in strength between Anderlecht and Arsenal was obvious. Constantly bewitching fans and inciting such inappropriate remarks will eventually only bring harm to themselves.

And the most important thing is, who will bear Arsenal's anger?

Tielemans mocked Lucky, and who is Lucky? He is the captain of Arsenal and the face of the giants.

From a certain perspective, insulting Lucky is equivalent to insulting the club.

Faced with such provocation, how could Arsenal players remain calm?

This is just the first one!

There will be a second one soon!

The game resumed. After losing the ball, Anderlecht wanted to save the situation, but Arsenal didn't give them such a chance at all.

Especially in the midfield, Arsenal firmly controlled the rhythm and completely suppressed it.

Swish! !

Tielemans was pushed by Leka, and after stabilizing his body, he saw Leka moving to the left with the ball.

Tielemans immediately rushed over and wanted to steal the ball.

But just when Tielemans stretched out his foot to steal the ball, Leka's foot frequency changed. His right foot, which was originally used to dribble the ball, suddenly came back and knocked it sideways.

The ball passed under Tielemans' crotch.

After Leka passed through the crotch, he blocked Tielemans behind him, and looked forward to observe his teammates.

"Slow down!!"

Leka passed the ball to Cazorla and told him.

These guys seemed to be full of blood, and those who didn't know thought they were provoked.

They rushed forward desperately, sometimes even ignoring the rhythm and cooperation.

Arsenal is a young team.

And the common problem of young teams is recklessness!

One of Leka's tasks in this team is to hold these guys back when they charge recklessly!

However, at this moment, Lucky felt that even if he held the reins, he still couldn't completely appease the Arsenal horses.

These guys were grinding their hooves, breathing heavily, and staring fiercely at the opponent's goal.

It seemed as if they wanted to shoot the opponent's goal to pieces!
