Chapter 380 The Runaway Saint

Arsenal fans are so crazy that Manchester United players are very uncomfortable.

They have experienced many battles and have been to many stadiums, but it is rare to see such hostility towards them.Even at Old Trafford, they didn't enjoy such treatment...

The frantic chants from the Arsenal fans affected the performance of the Manchester United players in the game.

Not long after Arsenal had just scored, in the 8th minute, Van Persie received a yellow card for fouling the ball.

Arsenal fans sent huge boos to Van Persie.Because Van Persie played for Arsenal before, although he was happy in Arsenal, he is also a player of Manchester United now, Arsenal fans will naturally not let go of any enemy...

Under the huge boos, Van Persie lost control of his emotions.

Only 4 minutes later, No. 12 minutes, the offensive Cazorla had a dispute with Van Persie in the process of fighting back. The two had some verbal confrontation, and the Arsenal fans booed Van Persie again.

After 3 minutes of this dispute, No. 15 minutes, Van Persie suddenly used a flying shovel in defense, and Cazorla flew out with the ball!
At that moment, the chief went to the stadium to boo so loudly that he could not hear the referee's whistle at all.

People took the initiative to turn their eyes to the referee, only to see him running to the foul spot and groping in his chest pocket.

The Arsenal fans were excited, as was the Spanish commentator.

"The referee wants to draw a card! This is indeed a very dangerous foul! And Van Persie has already had a yellow card on his back! No matter what color the card is, he will end!!"

The Arsenal fans in the stands yelled at Van Persie: "Get off! You murderer!!"

There was a frantic air over the chief, and the air was full of excitement.

Manchester United, who was sent off, must bow down and admit defeat this time!
The Manchester United players stood on the pitch, looking around, at a loss for what to do in such an environment.

But that's not true for everyone.

Van Persie didn't have anything to say about the flying shovel, but the Arsenal players rushed up, surrounded him, scolded him, and accused him.

And Li Yuxin yelled: "Don't do it, calm down!" After all these years as the captain, Li Yuxin still has a lot of prestige in Arsenal!Looking at this scene, the commentators are all praising Li Yuxin's general demeanor, but Arsenal will lose their captain next time. Seeing the gesture made by the team doctor, Wenger replaced Wilshere.
There were about five or six people around him, and the scene was quite spectacular. At a glance, Van Persie was surrounded by red and white.

At this time, the referee also ran to the scene of the incident, and he took out two cards from his pocket, one yellow and one red.

Then he entered the encirclement of Arsenal players, showed Van Persie a second yellow card, and then a red card - and Van Persie was sent off!

"Two yellows turned into one red, Van Persie was sent off...Now it's difficult for Manchester United to play this game..."

John Mortensen said worriedly.

But Senke shouted loudly: "The butcher's retribution!

Van Persie walked to the sidelines with his head down. He didn't defend himself, but he aimed at overthrowing Cazorla with that kick.

So he had already thought of this result when he made his move.

Although he could think of it, at that moment, he just couldn't control his temper, or he didn't intend to control his temper.

If he doesn't vent his anger, he'll probably get worse.

So it's better to let it out.

It is not uncommon for Van Persie to be sent off after the next game.

As for the team...

At this moment, he passed Bell and heard Bell say, "I'm not surprised."

He stopped abruptly and turned to look at Bell.

Bell looked calm and sighed: "Go down and rest, and then watch how Manchester United is finished."

If Bale yelled at him and said his red card put the team in a dangerous situation, Van Persie might still be a little proud, because it means that he is very important to the team.

But Bell sighed so lightly now, and then let him go to rest and wait for the end...

That confident tone made Van Persie even more upset!

Damn, it's like you alone can make the team win!
Van Persie clenched his fist... If Bale wasn't his former friend, he would have punched him...

But in the end Van Persie let go of his fist, and then he walked off the court without looking back.After all, if he had to hit this punch, he would be finished!
"Van Persie, Van Persie..." Arsenal's commentator shook his head and sighed. "When he was at Arsenal, he caused unrest in Arsenal's dressing room by himself. Now that he has gone to Manchester United, he has not restrained his bad temper at all, and has become a time bomb in the Manchester United dressing room. Now this bomb has finally... Exploded! In such an important game, he couldn't control his anger and was sent off after only 15 minutes of the opening! Manchester United's next game will be difficult..."

At this time the game has restarted.

Walcott sat on the bench, watching the pitch.

He didn't know if it was a good thing for him that Arsenal had the upper hand in this game.

He turned his attention to Bell.

He was even more curious about what Bell would do in the face of such an unfavorable situation.

Will he be consumed by Arsenal's vengeance?
After Van Persie was sent off, Ferguson did not make any adjustments, he did not make substitutions.He also didn't let Rooney move forward.

He didn't do anything, as if Li Yuxin didn't end at all.

It's not that he's at a loss, on the contrary, this is Ferguson's adjustment, defensive counterattack.

Wenger, on the other hand, let Arsenal play without a striker.

"Frontless tactics" have been known and understood by more and more people because of Barcelona led by Guardiola.

At the beginning, because of the conflict between Ibrahimovic and Messi, Guardiola simply started experimenting with no front, and the results were surprisingly good.

This season, even if Villa was introduced from Valencia, Villa himself is a particularly prolific shooter, but he has delicate skills at his feet, outstanding awareness of coordination, and can pull out the penalty area to create opportunities for teammates, so he can also adapt to no-front tactics.

Now Wenger also hopes that Arsenal will play without front tactics.

This is a pioneering work, but Wenger believes in Bell's ability.

In Barcelona's frontless tactics, Messi is the key figure. As an offensive midfielder, he can frequently score goals.

Bell is no worse than Messi, why can't he?

So after Li Yuxin went down, Bell had to shoulder more responsibilities.

In this regard, Wenger is confident.

He also set his sights on Bell.

Every time his team encounters difficulties, Bell will always be one of the most trustworthy people.

After the game restarted, Manchester United, who had one less man, had to shrink the defense to avoid being scored by Arsenal, and Arsenal, who had lost their main center forward, played without a forward.

Now Arsenal, with one more player, is full of morale, playing around Manchester United's penalty area.

The Arsenal fans in the stands are also very cooperative, and every offensive of Arsenal can attract cheers from them in the stands.

Sounds really intimidating.

Manchester United played really hard during this period. They were struggling in the tide of Arsenal's offensive, but they also occasionally counterattacked. After all, they are the Red Devils Manchester United.

It's just that there is really no way to keep defending blindly. Maybe the team will lose at some point...

"...During this period, Arsenal's offensive was strong, while Manchester United was completely suppressed! Even Gareth returned to the half court to participate in the defense in order to grab the ball, which shows how hard Arsenal suppressed Manchester United..." The commentators said so.

Bale was indeed involved in the defense in his own half.

But what these commentators and spectators may not know is... Bell's retreat and participation in defense is not because the battle is tight in the rear, but because he needs to get the ball!
Yes, he needs the ball, he needs the ball to score.

No one knows, Bell is going to open Wushuang!
No.30 minutes, after Van Persie was sent off, Arsenal had been besieging Manchester United for 15 minutes, but they did not score.

They did have a lot of good opportunities, but neither Cazorla nor Cristiano Ronaldo were able to grasp them.

Arsenal's attack was loud and powerful, but not many people noticed that they were less rainy...

No. 301 minutes, Arsenal launched an attack again, and Bell also came back to participate in the defense.

"...Although Gareth's return to participate in the defense is a positive performance... But I don't think he should do it." Alan Hansen suddenly began to criticize Bell's performance in the commentary. "After Li Yuxin left the field, he was the most threatening player in Arsenal's goal for Manchester United. If he stayed in the frontcourt, even if he might not be able to receive the pass from his teammates, he could still provide a deterrent to Arsenal's defenders, preventing them from pressing too high. But now? When he comes back to participate in the defense, he may not be able to provide any defensive help. Instead, because he retreats, Arsenal's defenders dare to press up and provide support for the offense. So Rong's return not only did not relieve his teammates. On the contrary, it has become even more stressful... I think this kind of back defense is really useless except for show!"

Alan Hansen is a person who is merciless when criticizing people. He will not consider how good this person's performance was in the past, even if he just scored a goal, but if his performance is not good at this moment, it is a poor performance and should be criticized.

So sometimes he speaks badly, but every sentence makes sense, so that those who are unhappy can't refute anything.

He is now accusing Bell of going back to the defense, which is not good for the team, and his analysis is also very correct...

Bell's return to defense did not make Arsenal's situation better, after all, they can't score now...

What makes people wonder is, if this is the case, why didn't Arsenal's head coach Wenger intervene in Bell's move and make adjustments?
For example, tell Bell not to return to the defense casually. Although the team has more people, it does not need him to help defend...

Wenger stood on the sidelines, staring at the pitch, not saying a word.

Behind him, above his head, was the wild cheer of the Arsenal fans.

No.30 In the second minute, after Bell returned to the defense, he ran to the Manchester United midfielder Carrick who took the ball.

Carrick was the metronome of Manchester United's midfield, he got the ball the most in attack, the football was always coming from all directions, and then he was passing it in all directions.

Bale took aim at him, because once he broke the ball, he could directly face the Manchester United back line.

He rushed to steal the ball.

Carrick noticed Bale's action, so he twisted his hips and passed the ball.

But while he was doing this, Bell, who was running towards him, turned around suddenly, and then stretched his legs!
The ball passed by Carrick was poked away by Bell's toe and rolled straight to the sideline!
When many people were surprised that Bell was able to stop Carrick's pass, Bell had restarted and chased football!

The moment Bell stretched out his foot to steal the ball, he seemed to have seen through Carrick's action. It was actually a fake move when he ran towards Carrick. When Carrick turned his hips, Bell turned and ran towards the passing lane. Sure enough, Carrick passed the football.

So Bale was able to break the pass with his toe.

It's just that after the football touched his toes, it changed course and rolled towards the sideline, looking as if it was about to go out of bounds.

The Arsenal fans in front of the TV cheered when Bell stole the ball, but then they sighed loudly when they saw that the football was finally going to roll off the touchline-it's a pity that Bell's unexpected steal!
But at this moment, they suddenly discovered that Bell, who had almost split in order to steal the ball just now, bounced off the ground like a spring, and then rushed towards the football!

He's as fast as lightning!

At the same time, Manchester United's left back Luke Shaw also rushed to the football. He obviously saw Bell's intention. Bell's speed made him very afraid. Bell must not be allowed to save the football!
Even if he knocked the football out of the touchline by himself in the end, it would be better than letting Bell save the ball and then fight back...

Luke Shaw and Bale rushed to the football at the same time.

It seems that the left back Luke Shaw may be closer to the football, after all, that is his defense zone.

But when both of them rushed to the football, the difference in speed quickly became apparent.

Bell actually took the lead!
Luke Shaw had to change his strategy at the end of the run, instead of going for the ball, he went for people!
He's going to knock Bell out of the sideline, foul it!

This is the only way to stop him!
He accelerated straight into Bell.

At the same time, Bell, who was rushing towards the football, flicked his left ankle and stabbed the football in a direction parallel to the sideline, while he himself rushed out of the sideline...

Luke Shaw's collision also followed, with a boost, Bell directly hit the billboard next to the sideline.

Seeing this scene, the referee put the whistle in his hand into his mouth, intending to blow the whistle and call Luke Shaw a foul.

But at this moment, he suddenly saw Bell, who hit the billboard, supporting the billboard with both hands, and pushed hard!
Pushing his body backwards made him run again!
He jumped over Luke Shaw, who had lost his center of gravity and fell to the ground, and strode towards the football he stabbed away!
The game continues!

The referee put down the whistle, made a gesture of raising his hands forward, and then ran towards Arsenal's half.

The offense is favorable, the game continues!
Arsenal's players quickly defended.

The only two Manchester United players remaining in front of the penalty area, Ferdinand and Vidic, are also returning to the defense.

Ferdinand chased Bale, while Vidic ran straight into the penalty area.

Ferdinand is responsible for interfering and entangled Bell, to buy more time for other Arsenal players to return to defense.

But Bale never gave Ferdinand the chance to entangle him.

After catching up with the football, he didn't continue to dribble, but suddenly pushed the football forward again!
With a very hard trip, the football rolled out for more than ten meters.

Next, Bell, without the ball under his feet, was like a bullet fired at high speed, with a bang, he accelerated!Forced overtaking from Ferdinand's side.

Ferdinand tried to grab Bell, but failed.Because his stretching and pulling movements were too slow in front of Bell's speed...

And with his age and turning speed, as long as Bell is pulled, it means that he has withdrawn from the defense, and it is impossible to catch up with Bell...

"Gareth—! He rushed over!"

The Arsenal fans in the stands of the Emirates Stadium are cheering Bale almost frantically.

This sound was louder than ever before, completely surpassing the decibels of Van Persie's boos when he shoveled Li Yuxin.

This time they were not expressing their anger at Van Persie, but their inner fear.

When they saw that Bale broke through Ferdinand with ease, they panicked, as if they could already foresee the result they least wanted to see!
