Chapter 255 Battle against Arsenal ([-])

Henry has been a bit annoyed recently, because he has been thinking about leaving, and he is tempted by a team that may have a higher status than Arsenal, and has an easier chance of winning the championship.Under such circumstances, it is normal for Henry to be tempted. This is also the reason why Henry did not perform very well after the start of this season. When you start to waver about whether to stay here, it will naturally affect your state.

Before you know it, the game is about to start, and the referee Howard Webb, who took the penalty for the game, blew the whistle to start the game.

As soon as the game started, Arsenal started their onslaught against Southampton amidst the cheers of the home fans.

Within a few minutes of the opening, Arsenal had three long-range shots from outside the penalty area, and the three midfielders shot one by one, trying to see whether the wind is going well today.

Facing Arsenal, which was aggressive from the start, Southampton responded with its own tough defense. Any player who dared to get the ball on the edge of the penalty area would be tackled viciously.There is no doubt that this is also part of Redknapp's tactical arrangement. Against a team like Arsenal that has a soft style of play and the ball is at their feet most of the time, fierce physical contact and tackles are the best weapons against them.

After 10 minutes of the game, the two teams basically spent Arsenal's impact and Southampton's strangulation, but at this time, Arsenal found a rare opportunity on the wing.

Walcott dribbled the ball on the side and tried to use his speed to pass Kassel, but how could the experienced Kassel be passed by Walcott so easily? With a reasonable body contact, Walcott, who was running at high speed, lost his balance and the ball under his feet was also stabbed by Kassel.

Fabregas followed up later, and it was a cross at a 45-degree angle!
The arc of the ball was very high and the ball was very fast. In an instant, the ball flew into the penalty area. The central defender Lundekvam stood on the ball's landing point and jumped high, trying to push the ball out of the penalty area.

However, an accident happened at this time. It may be that Fabregas gave too much rotation to the ball. When the ball reached the expected landing point of Lundekwam, it went back a little bit. As a result, after Lundekwam jumped up, he just touched the side of a ball.

The ball changed its trajectory slightly and hit Adebayor's chest directly.

Adebayor didn't expect happiness to come so suddenly, his subconscious chest stopped, and then he just raised his foot and hit him!

The ball was played very suddenly, but Adebayor also kicked it hastily. As a result, the ball was kicked high and out of the baseline, and Adebayor fired an anti-aircraft gun.

Adebayor wasted an excellent opportunity and disappointed the home fans.

Henry on the side was also a little dissatisfied. He was just beside Adebayor. As long as he handed over the ball, Henry was absolutely sure that he would be able to score the ball!

After hesitating for a moment, Henry, who originally wanted to say a few words, let out a long sigh and said nothing more.

In this game, Southampton still had the classic formation against strong teams. Yunfeiding was at the front of the midfield, and behind him Hughes and Suleman formed a double midfielder.

At this time, Yunfei, watching the team being threatened by the opponents continuously, knew that the situation was not good. Although the team wanted to shrink the defense and fight the opponent's counterattack, it would not be good to concede the ball first!
The most urgent task now is to launch a threatening counterattack first, to make Arsenal have scruples and not be able to press forward with such reckless attack!

Just like what Yunfei thought, Redknapp in the scene also indicated that the team can't retreat so deep, they must expand a little, otherwise they will be too passive!

Although the head coach didn't say anything to him, Yunfei knew in his heart that at this time the head coach definitely hoped that he could make some noise!
So soon, Yunfei found a chance to fight back.

Arsenal's frontcourt offense is very smooth, but as a center forward, Adebayor's ability at his feet is worse than that of his teammates. A mistake in catching the ball was found by Lundekwam. The opportunity broke the ball, and then passed the ball directly to Suleman.

The moment Suleman took the ball, he was interfered by Rosicky. Seeing that the best counterattack time was about to be missed, Yunfei retreated in time to meet his teammates and received Suleman's pass.

The moment Yunfei took the ball, a huge force came from Yunfei's side!

Gilberto Silva!This unpretentious Brazilian player on the field is the current anchor of Arsenal's midfield. He was keenly aware of Yunfei's intentions and immediately rushed forward to interfere with Yunfei's possession of the ball.

Yunfei naturally noticed the latter's movement, but he didn't expect the opponent to come up so fast, and was directly pushed back by the opponent.

But at this time Yunfei showed his talent. The moment he was pushed out, he didn't lose control of the ball under his feet. Instead, he swung the ball back and gave it back to Suleman, while he continued to run forward.

Suleman also had an idea at this time, pretending to make a long pass to the left, which interfered with Gilberto Silva's judgment and made him hesitate a little when he was with Yunfei. However, the next moment, Suleman still passed the ball accurately to Yunfei.

Suleman helped Yunfei gain valuable starting time. When Yunfei was fully accelerated, even Gilberto Silva could hardly catch up with him!

Chance for Southampton!
Yunfei drove straight in and inserted into Arsenal's defensive hinterland!

Central defender Kolo Toure had to push out at this time, and if Yunfei got close to the penalty area, he could shoot directly. That was too dangerous!

"Will he continue to bring, or pass? Or, break me?"

Toure kept guessing in his heart, and couldn't think of Yunfei's next move at all.

Just when Toure was constantly struggling, Yun Fei moved!

A diagonal pass with an arc on the right foot!
The ball was sent directly to the left of the penalty area. Bell used his speed to completely shake off Julu, got the ball, and then directly crossed the front of the penalty area!

The ball was so fast that Fuller had no time to shoot, and watched the ball pass in front of him.

Jones from behind followed up and volleyed directly!
The shooting angle itself is relatively small, and Jones ran relatively fiercely, and as a result, the ball was directly drawn into the air!

Hoyt, who was guarding Jones, was still in fear at this time. He couldn't keep up with the opponent's speed, which allowed Jones to have such a good shot in such a dangerous place. Fortunately, Jones shot the ball high!
