Chapter 245
After a big victory over Blackburn in the second round, on August 8th, Arsenal's game against Manchester City attracted huge attention!The old giants against the upstarts!

In this league, both sides have come up with their strongest lineups.

And Wenger continued to send out the main lineup that swept Blackburn [-]-[-] at home in the last round. The goalkeeper is the veteran Lehmann. The defense is flanked by Sagna and Clichy.

In Li Yuxin's opinion, Arsenal's lineup is actually not very good. After the start of this season in the previous life, Cesc Fabregas was in a very good state. The entire main force of Arsenal was playing around him and doing their own essential work. This is how they achieved such good results in the league. However, this lineup has exposed many flaws. If the defense is solid, if they don’t open gaps for their passing back and forth, I’m afraid their offense will be difficult to be effective. In this season’s Champions League, they are invincible in the group stage.

In terms of defense, their own problems are also not small. The two full-backs are better at attacking, and the defense is average. The central defender Gallas often makes mistakes.

Everyone knows that Arsenal's offense has always been magnificent. After Li Yuxin became the center last season, they started to play more openly. With Cesc Fabregas as the core, they launched an offense through fast passing and cooperation. This has allowed them to maintain their performance this season. However, there has always been a characteristic of Arsenal, that is, they performed very well at the beginning of the season, and gradually fell behind during the Christmas schedule. Then they may even fall out of the fourth place, and then in the last two months, they will become a madman for the top four...

In the final analysis, the reason is that Arsenal's substitutes have always been not very good, and Wenger's tactical changes are relatively small, which is easy to be touched by the opponent.

What really embarrassed them was what to do in the next attack—they couldn’t find too many opportunities in the previous attack, which was rare in normal games, and every time they felt this way, they would often encounter a draw or even a loss. Even if they could win, it would be very difficult.

This can be regarded as Arsenal's biggest weakness. Apart from defense, there is no good way to break the dense defense. This situation was not obvious before, but it became more obvious after Henry left. After Henry was gone in the previous life, although their offense seemed to be more flexible, they lost a top breakthrough player, a top free kick, and a superstar who can change the entire game situation through his own personal power!

At that time, the state of the Arsenal players had already begun to decline.
But now, they are still in good shape, and they have their own superstar who can dominate the game!

In the first half, Arsenal had the advantage and opened the scoring with Li Yuxin's beautiful volley in the 307th minute.

After taking the ball, Fabregas immediately took the ball forward a few steps. After attracting the attention of Parker and Patton, he lifted the ball and passed the ball to Diaby who was plugging in from the right.

Hleb received the ball and turned around, quickly lifted his foot in the middle circle, and transferred the ball to the left!
From there, it was Li Yuxin with lightning speed who told me to plug in!

Li Yuxin is known for his speed, but unlike other technical centers, he also has a strong body and excellent physical fitness. Such a forward move can be said to be as fast as lightning!

Ashley Yang was freed by Li Yuxin almost instantly, and then Li Yuxin, who was advancing forward, unloaded the ball with a movement without the slightest fireworks. The ball he unloaded rolled obliquely along the direction of his running. This action hardly had any impact on Li Yuxin's forward speed!

Take the ball!straight line!Forward!

The speed at which Li Yuxin dribbled the ball did not seem to be fast, but even though Barnes, who was approaching from the side, began to retreat at the first incident, when Li Yuxin dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he still had no way to defend Li Yuxin!

After breaking into the penalty area, Li Yuxin faced Schmeichel Jr. who was attacking. He quickly dunked the ball, adjusted his angle facing the goal, and then volleyed directly with his right foot to the far corner!
Although Schmeichel tried his best to stretch his hand and touched the ball with his fingertips, he still couldn't stop the ball from flying into the goal!
When Li Yuxin hoisted the ball into the dead corner of Atletico Madrid's goal with an elegant movement, the [-] Atletico Madrid fans in the Calderon Stadium became silent, while the [-] Real Madrid fans shouted in surprise!
One to one tie!Ten minutes after the start of the second half and five minutes into the whole game, Real Madrid, like the first half, was passive and at a disadvantage on the offensive, relying on a beautiful counterattack and the tacit cooperation between several stars, and evened the score with a counterattack like flowing water!
"This is the role of a superstar! I really hate this, it's so helpless when something unexpected happens outside of my control..."

The moment Pierce saw the ball fly into the goal, he spread his hands helplessly, then turned and walked towards his seat. After sitting down, Pierce covered his mouth with his palm and said something to the assistant coach.

The assistant coach smiled wryly, and he also felt helpless—he knew that Pierce must be very, very, very upset at this time. He had no plans. He had calculated all the game situations and was able to make the general trend of the game move forward according to his own assumptions and manipulations. However, there are always such superstars who use outstanding personal performances to break this general trend!With this sense of powerlessness, it is no wonder that Pierce, the head coach who does not have a superstar in his hands, feels very upset. Manchester City spent so much money but failed to buy a superstar.

In the second half of the game, they continued to overwhelm Manchester City and occupied an absolute advantage in their home court!
At this time, Robinho looked depressed!

And when the media saw that Robinho reappeared in the starting list, they had something to say.

"After Robinho joined Manchester City, with a weekly salary of more than 9 pounds after tax, what left the deepest impression on us was the scene where he missed an empty goal twice in one game... Who said that it is more difficult to score than not to score? Robinho proved to us that this statement is wrong!"

"The former cyclist was optimistic about the 'ball king' Pele, thinking that his achievements would be higher than his own. Now it seems that Pele's crow's mouth was not only reflected in predicting the outcome of the game, but even his eyes are so crow..."

The media in England did their best to humiliate Robinho and spoke very viciously.

To make fun of Robinho, they have done a lot this half of the season, and they even gave Robinho a nickname, which translates into Chinese to the effect of "Empty door does not enter the emperor".

When the team's performance is not good, his stalk of not scoring empty goals will be repeatedly brought up by the price. On the Internet, some netizens even made a video and uploaded it to YouTube. The name of the video is "Robinho Manchester City's Highlights".

In fact, to be honest, the number of times Robinho failed to score empty goals was definitely not as many as everyone advertised. He also only missed three empty goals in total, and there were two in that game, but that was also a coincidence. Robinho's luck was so bad in that game...

But now let everyone say this, as if Robinho would not enter as long as he is empty...

Robinho once protested against this matter, but everyone hated him as much as he wanted, so after a long time, he simply kept silent...

You can't win if you fight against public opinion.

He has now been labeled as "no entry in an empty door", and it can be said that he can't be washed away even if he jumps into the Atlantic Ocean.

Before this game, his non-entry stalk was turned out again and hyped.

Even... Some people waited maliciously to see Robinho not score in the game again - in this regard, some bookmakers offered odds on Robinho not scoring in this game for everyone to bet on. Judging from the betting situation, the bettors were very enthusiastic...

How could Robinho not know about these situations?But now Manchester City needs him to stand up as the standard king, but he has no choice. After all, he is not a superstar like Ronaldo and Rivaldo!

At this time, the commentary was also not hesitating to ridicule: "This is the future star of Brazil, haha, compared with our Li, it is simply .
In the end, Arsenal defeated Manchester City 2-0 to win three consecutive victories!
