i want to be king

Chapter 650 Here I Come!

Su Dong's self-confidence is not blind arrogance, but comes from confidence in his own strength.

Wenger is obviously also very afraid of Su Dong. In order to better freeze Su Dong, he even broke up the main central defender this season.

Gallas was adjusted to the left side, the teenager John Julu and Kolo Toure joined forces in the center, and Sagna was on the right side. This combination was the first time this season, and the left back Clichy was put on the bench.

In fact, this is not surprising, Heynckes raised such a possibility before the game.

Gallas is 1.8 meters tall, and Kolo Touré is even shorter, only 1.7 meters [-]. There is a height gap of more than ten centimeters between the two players and Su Dong. This is a considerable disadvantage when defending a player like Su Dong.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of physical confrontation, short players will suffer a lot.

Therefore, Wenger would rather sacrifice the attack on the left side and let Julu start if he wins Clichy. He just wants to recruit a defender who can fight Su Dong physically, and at least be able to hold Su Dong head-on.

Not only that, Arsenal also gave up the double striker combination of Adebayor and Van Persie in this game, and instead adopted the trident of Nasri, Adebayor and Theo Walcott, with Cesc Fabregas in the midfield and Alexander Song and Denilson behind.

The combination of double defensive midfielders can maximize the liberation of Fabregas and the two wings in the frontcourt.

Nasri was born as a front midfielder. After coming to Arsenal, he changed to play as a full-back. He is not fast, but has strong dribbling ability and excellent skills at his feet. Walcott is the opposite. The little tiger is very fast and is known as the number one flying player in football.

Arsenal's starting lineup is somewhat stable, but the overall tactics of the Gunners are already very mature, and it is a home game, and Bayern dare not be careless.

Heynckes is doing his best in this game.

The goalkeeper is Neuer, the defense is Marcelo, Pepe, Lucio and Lahm, the midfielder is Mascherano, Schweinsteiger and Modric are in the middle, and the front is the trident combination of Ribery, Su Dong and Robben.

This is Bayern's regular starting lineup, and no adjustments have been made, showing the confidence of the Bundesliga class bully.

……

Before the game, when the players of the two teams were waiting to play in the player tunnel, Su Dong shook hands with Cesc Fabregas and exchanged greetings.

The two of them have a mutual friend, that is Messi.

Fabregas has also been rumored to return to Barcelona, ​​which is already obvious.

Although he is now the captain of Arsenal, everyone knows that the Gunners have always had a tradition of selling captains.

From Henry to Vieira, which captain can't be sold?

The players of the two teams do not have much contact with each other. Even Ribery and Nasri are teammates in Marseille, but the relationship is not very good. This is also related to their playing style.

During the time they worked together in Marseille, the roles of the two on the court were somewhat conflicting.

Although they are all professional players, the conflict of roles on the court will more or less affect their performance off the court.

After chatting with Cesc Fabregas, Su Dong was at the end of the team. He also took the opportunity to warm up and sprinted on the spot for a while, which made the nearby Arsenal players a little dignified.

Nima, he looks so excited today!
Gallas, Julu and Kolo Toure, especially the teenager Julu, who bore the brunt, suddenly had a dark face that looked like charred. He felt as if he had received a disaster-like job.

Everyone in Arsenal didn't know that when Senderos was as strong as before, he was directly knocked into the air by Su Dong.

Whether it's Julu, Gallas and Kolo Touré, ask yourself, are their bodies better than Senderos?

Even Senderos was overshadowed by Su Dong, can they please?

Su Dong also felt the eyes of the Arsenal players, and nodded with a smile to show his kindness.

But how did he know that his smile made the hearts of Arsenal players chill.

How come there is a feeling of hiding a knife in a smile?

……

Tonight's Emirates Stadium was packed.

All Arsenal fans in the audience held a team flag.

When the players of the two teams walked out of the player tunnel one after another, everyone waved their team flag vigorously, sang the team song, and shouted slogans. The scene was so lively that everyone, even the fans in front of the TV, could easily feel the horror atmosphere of Arsenal's home court.

Especially when the Gunners fans saw Su Dong, they booed overwhelmingly.

When the players of the two teams lined up to take pictures, Su Dong heard booing and cursing from the stands. He shrugged helplessly, but there was nothing he could do.

As a player, he has to represent the team he plays for, and it is impossible to please all the fans.

Hate it!

Anyway, he's used to it.

…………

…………

At the beginning of the game, Bayern, who took the lead in kicking off, kicked the ball directly to Mascherano.

The Argentine midfielder adjusted and quickly transferred the ball to the right and handed it to Robben.

Robben tried to dribble the ball inside but failed, and passed back to Modric.

Arsenal pressed very hard, forcing Modric to pass back to the centre-back, but the Gunners still pushed to the front of Bayern's penalty area, forcing Pepe to kick the ball forward.

Su Dong judged where the ball would fall, and blocked Zhu Lu with his body.

It has to be said that this kid is really in good health. He carried Su Dong tightly behind him, forcing Su Dong to stop the ball with his chest, so he could only head the ball to Ribery, but Sagna was already prepared and poked the ball away first.

Arsenal took advantage of the situation and launched a quick counterattack.

The whole stadium burst into jubilation.

Bayern quickly returned to defense.

From this moment on, the Gunners controlled the ball.

Bayern's defense is very well-organized, and the press and pressure are also in place, but Arsenal's ability to pass and control the ball is obviously slightly better than Bayern's. Even a defensive player like Alexander Song can work well with his feet.

This is also in line with Bayern's pre-match expectations. A team like Arsenal will not take the initiative to send possession of the ball.

Looking at today's European football, apart from Barcelona, ​​when it comes to possession, who is Arsenal afraid of?
The first shot of the game came from Fabregas's long-range shot from outside the penalty area. He cooperated with Nasri, let him sway past Mascherano, and suddenly shot a long-range shot, but the ball hit Lucio's leg and went wide of the goal.

In the subsequent corner kick, Lucio grabbed the spot and headed it out.

But on the periphery, after Nasri got the ball, he passed it into the penalty area again. Neuer resolutely abandoned the goal and attacked, grabbing the ball from midair before Alexander Song.

After getting the ball, Neuer called out to his teammates, glanced ahead, kicked the ball to the right side of the front court quickly, and Robben also started to sprint forward at the fastest speed.

Gallas desperately chased back, while Su Dong in the middle was also advancing at high speed, and the two defenders Zhulu and Sania were desperately returning to defend.

Robben finally got ahead of Gallas and stopped the ball with his foot. The whole person also took advantage of the situation and stopped suddenly, smashing the ball and trying to cut in.

When he was about to get rid of Gallas, the French defender suddenly kicked and stabbed the ball, but also tripped Robben.

The referee whistled without hesitation and showed a yellow card.

The entire Emirates Stadium booed again.

"Bayern's counterattack was very fast. If Robben got rid of the past, it would be really dangerous."

"This is the offensive characteristic of Bayern. Su Dong, Ribery and Robben are all players with super personal abilities. In a one-on-one situation, it is difficult for ordinary defensive players to limit them. Many times they can only be forced to foul."

"The place of this foul was just outside the 30-meter zone, so it should be considered pretty good. Gallas' foul was very decisive."

"A veteran is a veteran. He has a lot of experience. When it comes to what to do, he should be unambiguous and do it directly."

"If there is a little more hesitation, the foul will be closer to the middle, and the position may even be more dangerous."

"The official data shows that the distance from the goal is 35 meters. The distance is very far, and the position is slightly to the right. It should be said that Gallas has a lot of experience in choosing the foul spot."

Wenger is also constantly arranging the team's defense on the sidelines, but not against the wall or anything else, but against Sudong.

Obviously, the professor also believes that Bayern's free kick is likely to be indirect cooperation, so it is necessary to pay attention to the high points in the penalty area, such as Su Dong, Pepe and Lucio.

But when Wenger just reminded the players, Schweinsteiger just ran over, picked up the ball, and placed it on the penalty spot, but Su Dong suddenly ran over.

"I'll take the ball!" Su Dong gasped.

Schweinsteiger was obviously stunned for a moment, "Hit directly?"

This position is more than 30 meters away from the goal, and the position is not in the middle. If you hit directly, are you sure?
"Try it." Su Dong chuckled.

Schweinsteiger ran away without any doubts.

When Su Dong stood at the penalty spot, rearranged the football, and then slowly backed away, there was a burst of exclamation from the audience.

"What's going on? Su Dong is planning to take this free kick directly?"

"It's not a good position."

"We have to admit that Su Dong's free kick is really good. He can even be called No.1 among the new generation of players. However, free kicks in this position are very difficult. I'm afraid it's not so easy to play. Instead, indirect free kicks will be more sure."

"Otherwise, Gallas would not have chosen to play in this position."

"However, we saw that the Bayern players didn't seem to disagree."

Arsenal also guarded against Sudong, for fear that he was deliberately bluffing and making the illusion of a direct free kick, but in fact it was an indirect free kick, so all the high points were arranged in the penalty area, and only Nasri and Fabregas were placed on the wall.

It's not that the gunner is big, but that this position is really not a threat.

Unless Su Dong is sure to blast into a difficult world wave!

Modric ran over, stood with the two Arsenal men, and gave Su Dong a sly wink.

Su Dong raised his hand knowingly, smiled, took a deep breath, and calmed down.

When the referee's whistle sounded, he ran forward quickly.

Modric on the inside of the wall also moved.
