Chapter 583 : Return to the Alps!

In the end, the game ended with a score of zero to one. Arsenal beat Manchester United at home by one goal. Li Zihan scored the only goal of the game.

Although Li Zihan scored the only goal, the best player in the game was not Li Zihan, but Manchester United's Spanish goalkeeper De Gea. He once tried to keep the Red Devils' goal, but unfortunately, he Met Li Zihan.

And Zhan Jun's famous line "The frontcourt is picturesque, the backcourt De Gea!" also spread like wildfire.
After bidding farewell to this match against their mortal enemy, Arsenal will face the Champions League match again.Their opponent in this round of the Champions League group stage is the Turkish giants Galasatare, but fortunately, they are playing at home in this game.

Considering the current physical condition of the team, Wenger did not give an all-main starting lineup for this round of the game. After all, Arsenal has already qualified for the group stage. There is really no need to die with the difficult Turks at this time. knock.
The FIFA virus and the Asian Cup have had enough of an impact on Arsenal
In the end, Arsenal, who played with a rotation and a substitute lineup, was tied [-]-[-] at home by the opponent. Giroud and Cazorla scored a goal each.

The Champions League is over, and in the middle of the week, Arsenal will face the challenge of the league again.

In the No.13 round of the league, Arsenal played an away game against the downstream team West Bromwich Albion. This game was not difficult for Arsenal. In the end, the team won [-]-[-]. Li Zihan and Sanchez each scored a goal.

Next Arsenal needs to face the challenge of Saints Southampton. In this game, Arsenal arranged a mix of main players and substitutes. It is really difficult for Wenger. He must let other Arsenal players in this time period They are all able to provoke the big beams to deal with the days without Li Zihan in January.

After the game, the score was fixed at [-]-[-] on the big screen at the Emirates Stadium. Former Southampton player Walcott scored a goal, which was assisted by Li Zihan.

Arsenal have ended their winning streak in the league, which is a relief to Chelsea, Manchester City and other teams who want to compete for the Premier League title, because Arsenal have played [-] of the [-] rounds since the league began. A complete victory and two draws puts considerable pressure on the other title contenders.

On December 15th, the No.[-] round of the league, Arsenal faced Stoke City, and they will go to the famous Sky City for an away game.

So far this season, Sky City's performance is not good. They can only rank fourth from bottom in the league standings and are only one step away from relegation.

So think about such a team, they often start the relegation battle near the Christmas game.

Everyone knows that this game is not easy for Arsenal. If Stoke want to avoid relegation and not fall into the quagmire of life and death in the later stage, they must try their best to grab points now. They will definitely beat Arsenal at home.

In fact, this is indeed the case. Stoke City once took the lead. They scored three goals in the whole game, but Arsenal scored four goals.
Stoke City took the lead twice and then was equalized and overtaken by Arsenal. There is no way, the gap between the two teams is too big in terms of strength.

However, it is not easy for Stoke City to force Arsenal into this situation, because so far no non-rich team in the league has scored three goals for Arsenal! !

This time it wasn't the negligence of Arsenal's goalkeeper and defenders, but the opponent actually scored. The opponent's desire to attack was very strong, and they opened Arsenal's defense abruptly.

But there is no way, Arsenal has top players like Li Zihan, Sanchez, and Ozil. Although these three did not play the full 10 minutes of the game, it is enough for Stoke City to drink a pot.

After the end of this round of the league, Li Zihan is still proud of the Premier League princes by scoring [-] goals and scoring [-] assists in [-] games played in [-] rounds of the league.

The data of Rooney, Van Persie, Aguero, Hazard and Diego Costa are still far behind him. The only suspense is that in the month when Li Zihan went to the Asian Cup, can these stars Take the opportunity to catch up.

After leaving Stoke City, the city of the sky, the Arsenal team set off for Italy immediately after a day's rest.

Next, they will face the last round of this season's Champions League group stage, an away game against Serie A giants Juventus.

In the five rounds of the group stage, Arsenal got four wins and one tie, accumulating a proud record of 3 points.With such results, they have already qualified from this group in advance, while Juventus scored [-] points with three wins, one draw and one loss, and they also qualified from this group together. Reported to the UEFA Cup one round ahead of schedule, and the Belgian giants Anderlecht were the last out.Such a ranking is not beyond everyone's expectations. In fact, everyone thought of this possibility when this group came out.

The only thing worth watching is whether Galasa Tare can pull Juventus off the horse and let the Turkish team advance to the next round.The possibility of this is not impossible. Juventus have not performed well in the Champions League over the years. They did not qualify for the UEFA Cup last season. It is worth mentioning that it was Galasa Tare who killed them at that time. .

But unfortunately, fans of other teams did not see it as a joke of Juventus. "Uncle Ji" Allegri is indeed one of the most hard-working head coaches!

When such a ranking comes out, the last sixth round of the game is relatively irrelevant, because even if Juventus kills Arsenal in the last round, they will only have [-] points and the same points as Arsenal, unless they have a big score kill the opponent.
Obviously this is unrealistic. After five rounds of the group stage, Arsenal scored [-] goals crazily, but only conceded [-] goals, with a goal difference of [-]
This shows how strong Arsenal's offensive power is now, and nine of these twelve goals have been scored in the away game. The title of "away madman" is still doing my part this season.

And what about Juventus?They have only scored six goals and conceded four. The goal difference is only two.

In other words, if Juventus wants to get the first place in the group, they must score [-]-[-] at home, with a gap of at least [-] goals.
You must know that they are facing Arsenal, and Juventus' attack happens to be their weakness, compared to this possibility, obviously compared to this, relative to the possibility of Juventus winning the Champions League bigger.
And on the other side, the results of the match between Galasatare and Anderlecht will not affect the final ranking.

So this last round of the game has almost no impact on the current Champions League. Everyone thinks that for such a game, everyone will tacitly arrange rotations and substitutes.One is to save strength and prepare for the league, and the other is to train other players.

But when Juventus' starting lineup for the game against Arsenal came out, everyone was taken aback.

For Juventus, the goalkeeper is Buffon, the central defenders are Bonucci and Chiellini, and Barzagli is still recovering from his injury.The two sides are still Asamoah and Lisi Steiner, the midfielder is a four-midfield configuration of Pirlo, Vidal, Marchisio and Pereira, and Tevez's partner Mora is on the front line tower.

This is undoubtedly the main force to play, even the team's brain veteran Pirlo has no rotation, it can be seen that Juventus is almost certain to win this game.Maybe they didn't want to compete with Arsenal for the first place in the group, after all, it's unrealistic.

But they are very likely to want to beat Arsenal in this game and get [-] points and the same score as Arsenal, so as to boost the morale of the team.

At the same time, Juventus lost [-]-[-] away to Arsenal in the first round of the group stage, so they were worried about it. They wanted to save face in this game, so they played with all their strength!
It's just that when Arsenal announced the starting list, everyone was stunned.

On top of the goalkeeper is the Colombian Ospina, the central defenders are Koscielny and Hewedes, and the two sides are the teenager Gibbs and the former Southampton teenager Chambers who has newly transferred to the team.Ramsey, Pogba's partner, is above the midfielder. Li Zihan, Ozil and Sanchez are on the offensive line, and the French center Giroud is the center forward.

This is also an all-main lineup. The only change is that Koscielny's position used to belong to Modesat, Chambers' position used to belong to the youth training teenager Bellerin, and Giroud's position belonged to England's native striker Harry. Kane.

However, Koscielny and the two German central defenders do not have the concept of who is the main force and who is the substitute. According to the difference in physical fitness, state and tactics, the three often play together with each other. Only Nkuru often acts as a substitute.

On Chambers' side, he just didn't live up to expectations, so he was replaced by the young player Bellerin.

As for the center forward Giroud. Before Harry Kane did not rise, he was Arsenal's unstoppable main center.

As soon as the starting lineups of the two sides were announced, everyone sighed, this is the rhythm of bayonet fighting.

This is one of the highlights. The second point is naturally that Li Zihan and Pogba have returned to the Alpen Arena (Juventus Arena). This is the first time they have returned to their old club after leaving Juventus. .

Especially Pogba, he just left on the front foot and came back on the back foot. As for Li Zihan, he has been away for a season.

From the Juventus fans' discrimination and contempt for Li Zihan to the last voice, he is the heir of Juventus stars such as Del Piero, Baggio and Trezeguet!
But as soon as such calls appeared, Li Zihan left Juventus.
Moreover, Li Zihan and Pogba were the twin stars of Juventus at the beginning, and were hailed as the cornerstone of the rise of Juventus, a century-old giant. As a result, this pair of friends, the cornerstone, are in the Arsenal camp this season.
