road to victory

Chapter 428 Wembley Stadium
Vincent thought that this draw would allow Roma to recover some points, but it didn't. Roma capsized in the gutter and was tied by the relegation team Perugia at their home court.

Inter Milan still maintains a 6-point advantage over Roma, and continues to have an 8-point advantage over Juventus.

Arsenal have come all the way from the Champions League this season. It can be said that they have stumbled. In the first stage of the group stage, they have the same points with Lazio, and in the second stage of the group stage, they have the same points with Bordeaux. With the advantage of goal difference, Vincent was squeezed out. His old club came to the knockout round.

Eliminating Bordeaux is hatred for Fan Shang, so Arsenal must not be let go, Fan Shang scanned Arsenal's lineup, the offensive end can be said to be gorgeous, and their biggest loophole is the defense. Defender plus goalkeeper.

Before the game, Vincent still habitually asked Rolle, who had just played against Arsenal, that Rolle had the same opinion as Vincent, it’s better to attack hard than hard defense, Bordeaux just suffered from this, they always play defensive counterattack , That's why Arsenal have an opportunity to take advantage of.

After flying to London, Inter Milan had a taste of the ghostly weather in London. I don’t know whether it was Inter Milan’s bad luck or something. Obviously April should not be the rainy season, but the rain is definitely more diligent than Inter Milan now. It came It was earlier than Inter Milan and left later than Inter Milan. That is to say, from the moment Inter Milan's plane landed to the end of the game, it was impossible for the rain to stop.

However, Fan Shang didn't care too much. Anyway, he made up his mind to attack Arsenal. The trouble now should be Arsenal, who mainly cooperate with the ground. Inter Milan Fan Shang still wants to use high-altitude bombing, so the field is wet and slippery. Not so much.

After all, it is Arsenal's home court. God may have favored Arsenal. A few hours before the start of the game, the rain suddenly stopped, and then the staff worked overtime and began to drain the turf. When Inter Milan came to Wembley Stadium to do During the pre-match training, there was almost no water accumulation on the turf, which was no different from normal weather.

Fan Shang is hesitating now, looking at Arsenal's top three defenders, what Fan Shang misses most now is Fei Luo who just stood up from the hospital bed, if he can be there, then Arsenal's top three defensemen will really be there Dangerous.

It's better to use your body, Fan Shang can't use the world's number one center forward to attack Arsenal's old line of defense.

Before the match, Vincent had a chat with Wenger on the sidelines, saying that Wenger can be regarded as a senior in the French coaching circle.

"Did that old man in Manchester tell you a lot?" Wenger asked Vincent with a smile.

"It's the same as you, except that I didn't drink coffee, but wine." Fan Shang replied honestly.

"Very well, welcome to Wembley." Wenger did not forget to say this at the end.

"If you stay in England for a long time, you will be virtuous." Fan Shang compared Wenger and Ferguson in his heart, and felt that the tone of both of them was quite good.

Arsenal's starting lineup today is 442, goalkeeper Seaman, four defenders, Ashley Cole, Keown, Adams, Dixon, four midfielders, Vieira, Parlor, Ljungberg and Pires , strikers Kanu and Henry.

Inter Milan's starting lineup is 442, goalkeeper Frey, four defenders, Zanetti, Materazzi, Blanco, Thuram, four midfielders, Emerson, Redondo, Camoranesi And Seedorf, striker Vieri and Hakan Suker.

Bergkamp was injured today, otherwise Arsenal's lineup will be stronger, but Wenger is really French, like Vincent, he likes to use his own players, and the two teams each have three Frenchmen.

Recently, Fan Shang still likes to put two center forwards on the field. This effect is really good, making it more difficult for the opponent to defend.

After returning to the locker room, Fan Shang gave the players the last lecture before the opening, "press on the offense, don't worry about the defense, today is to score early, you two use your body more, two 35-year-old veterans and I I don't believe you can't hit them."

Vieri and Hakan Suk nodded. They had heard what Vincent had said several times, and they knew that Vincent was going to use the two of them to attack Arsenal's defense today.

After the start of the game, Inter Milan attacked according to the position of several Arsenal veterans. The 37-year-old right back who Arsenal started today became an important offensive point for Inter Milan's wing.

Seedorf and Zanetti were not polite at the beginning of the game. They didn't even try to test, and they rushed towards Dixon with the ball. Seedorf's speed was not fast. In order to better attack, so Seedorf To attract Parlor, and then assigned to Zanetti to attack Dixon.

In the first minute, Zanetti received it from the wing and passed Dixon with his speed, and then made a pass from the bottom. Vieri and Hakan Suk jumped up at the same time, and Keown and Adams were completely caught by the two. Under the pressure, Hakansuke hit the ball, but he didn't find the state at the beginning of the game, and the ball flew up.

However, after watching the ball, Wenger was not calm. While crawling out of the substitute pit, he used his right hand to find his pocket, but until he walked to the sidelines, he said he didn't put it in his jacket pocket.

Fan Shang is quite satisfied with this attack, there is nothing wrong with the routine, it just depends on the success rate.

Of course, Arsenal did not show weakness. The focus of Arsenal's attack today was their left flank. Ashley Cole and Pires became the starting point of their attack. Obviously, Parlor and Dixon were given up by Wenger. up.

However, there is Thuram on Inter Milan's side, and Camoranesi on Fanshangfang is also trying to strengthen the defense today, Jugovic basically does not defend much, and Camoranesi, as a newcomer, is still He is more obedient and tries his best both offensively and defensively.

He is very familiar with Pires Vincent, and Thuram is also very familiar with it, so if Pires wants to play today, he has to do something different.

The same is true for Henry. The country's big brother Blanco sits in Inter Milan's defense, which also makes him a little scared. After all, the current French defense is the strongest in the world.

The current Henry is not the King of Highbury, and today's game is at Wembley instead of Highbury Stadium. Because the number of seats at Highbury does not meet the minimum requirements for the Champions League, Arsenal only need one in the past two years. To the Champions League, we have to go to Wembley for home games.

In the 5th minute, Henry retreated to get the ball outside the penalty area, and then took a long shot. This was Arsenal's first shot of the game, which also showed that Arsenal had no good way to take Inter Milan's defense.
