There is a dream called football

Chapter 333 Midfield Magician

Seeing that the ball was passed to Riquelme, Flamini jumped out like an arrow from the string, but Riquelme didn't stop the ball at all, but just kicked the ball out. In this way, Flamini couldn't find a chance even if he wanted to kick someone.

Wenger touched his chin.

"There are changes, it's not the same as in the league."

In the league, if it is in the middle of the midfield, Kerme must get the ball first, then look at the running position of his teammates, and pass the ball at the end.

But at this time Riquelme is very simple, and it is solved with one kick.

Flamini and Gilbert are also very smart. After a few tries, they knew that the opponent was prepared, so they didn't need to press, but stood up, otherwise they would be fooled by the opponent's pass.

Yan Qiang said strangely: "After the game started, it was the visiting team Villarreal who had possession of the ball."

"As expected, the midfielders of the yellow submarine are very good. Senna is now also a Spanish international, and Riquelme goes without saying."

"Pellegrini is really good. He picked up a bunch of visa-free players and formed a team that can win the Champions League."

"However, Spanish football is very special. Under normal circumstances, there is no obstacle for South Americans to play football here because of the convenience of the language."

"This may also be the first stop for many South Americans who choose Spain or Portugal."

Gradually, Wenger felt that something was wrong, because his side hadn't touched the ball for 1 minute, and the opponent moved very quickly in the midfield, as if leading Arsenal by the nose.

Wenger looked at Riquelme. If this guy didn't have such a bad temper and could go back to help defend, then he is really a top player. Unfortunately, there are no ifs in football games.

But in Villarreal, Riquelme, just like in Argentina, put the midfield in order.

This is also the reason why the opponent temporarily dominates the possession of the ball, but Arsenal will not let the opponent touch its core area. If it is within the 30-meter defense zone, then Arsenal will still defend very tough.

Villarreal got a free kick, and Riquelme took the penalty himself. His free kick is also an important means for the yellow submarine to score. This is all-rounder.

This time, except for Li Qiao and Henry, everyone else in Arsenal came back to help defend. Riquelme stretched out three fingers, which was obviously a No. [-] tactic.

Of course, Arsenal didn't know what the opponent's No. [-] tactic meant. Riquelme took the ball, the ball drew a big arc, and found a deep landing point, which was the back point of the defense.

Forlan is here, he is about to stretch his feet, and at this time Campbell and his feet are opposite each other, and the two of them touch the ball almost at the same time.

Just when the players on both sides were fighting for each other, a pair of big hands rose high, and it was Lehmann.

He takes the ball off.

"pretty."

Wenger feels that Lehmann is his best signing in recent years, which provides a relatively reliable guarantee for the position of the goalkeeper.

****
When Pires took the ball, he also missed it. Henry tried to get rid of the ball after getting it in the penalty area, but the space was too narrow. He saw Li Qiao on the other side and pushed it over, but Sorin predicted in advance that the ball was broken.

In this way, Arsenal's offensive players discovered that the opponent's prediction of the ball is too strong, that is, the ability to read the game.

Generally speaking, the opponent has no problem with the pass, and it can be easily predicted, unless it is the extreme pass, but the problem is that if the extreme pass is used, it is difficult for the players on the team to receive it. This is a problem.

"Pass the ball."

"Pirres seems to have lost his mojo today."

"The opponent's prediction is very good, and the French cannot be blamed for this."

"Yes, Villarreal's defense is very good, especially for Henry and Joe Lee."

Pires sent the ball again, but as soon as he kicked it, the commentator called out, "The pass is too big."

You don't need to look at the ball to know it's a big pass. Sorin thought so too, so he was about to give up chasing, but at this moment, Li Qiao was still chasing. If he can catch the ball back before the baseline, then Arsenal will have a good chance.

Henry has already moved ahead of time, that is, he is stuck in a forward position. If Li Qiao can chase the ball back, it must be passed to the forward position.

Sorin had already slowed down, but depending on the situation, he had to continue to speed up. He ran back quickly, but Li Qiao was faster, and it seemed that the only thing that could interfere with him was the distance from the baseline. At this time, Sorin shoveled. The Argentine bet that Li Qiao would pass the ball in the first time, but Li Qiao was even more cunning. He stepped on and pulled with the sole of his foot.

"Wow, my God, Li Qiao's side is empty."

Henry switched positions again, he ran backwards, leaving the forward point to Li Qiao, and Li Qiao also moved forward.

Villarreal can only gamble a bit, either the front point or the back point. At this time, the situation is obviously that the front point is more reliable, and the goalkeeper has also moved to this side. At this time, the most reasonable choice for Li Qiao is of course to pass to the back.

But at this time, Villarreal's defender made an own goal. He kicked in the direction of his own goal.

But Villarreal's defender completely rubbed the ball with this kick, and the ball flew slowly over the crossbar.

Henry covered his head, "This is okay too??"

Both Zhan Jun and Yan Qiang were dumbfounded.

"The defender's footwork is awesome. Don't look down on the defender's footwork in the future. It is better than many forwards."

"This is not only great, it is simply against the sky. The distance is less than 5 meters."

Villarreal's defensive players patted each other. The ball was really beautiful. It was equal to a goal. If the defender didn't take risks, then the ball leaked to the back point and it was a 100% goal.

Because Henry is facing an empty door!

In the 20 minutes of the first half, neither side scored a goal, but the technical and tactical level of the game was really high.

At this point, the rhythm of both sides has slowed down, and it should be necessary to take a breath.

"The rhythm has slowed down, and the two sides have entered a period of equilibrium."

"The rhythm of the first half was indeed too fast, and it really needs to slow down."

But what no one knows is that in the slow rhythm, Villarreal is actually brewing a new attack.

At this point, Riquelme has the ball!
