Chapter 491
"Manchester City, Manchester City!!!"

Amid the increasingly enthusiastic shouts of the Manchester City fans, Wenger came to the sidelines, and he kept pressing down with his hands.

"Hold on. Hold on!"

"Don't rush, and don't push too hard."

Seeing Wenger's prompt, Yang Daye nodded, then turned around and shouted to his teammates: "We now have a goal lead. The coach told us not to rush to fight against each other. Let's stabilize the rhythm."

Later, Arsenal started to serve, and then they followed Wenger's cue and did not rush to attack.Instead, he guided the pass in the backcourt and lowered the rhythm.

On the other hand, Manchester City launched a press in the frontcourt.Their fast pressing quickly forced Arsenal to pass the ball forward instead of continuing to lead their feet in the backcourt.

Pass the ball forward and also realize that Arsenal are starting to attack.But later, after the ball reached Mkhitaryan's feet, he made a mistake under the defense of opposing defender Walker.

After getting the ball, Manchester City immediately launched an attack.Fortunately, Arsenal retreated a little and prevented Manchester City from making a quick counterattack.However, it took a long time to prevent Manchester City from attacking.

Arsenal won the ball again, just like last time, they still focused on controlling the rhythm.Pass the ball with the foot in the backcourt, and wait for Manchester City to press hard before passing the ball forward to launch an attack.

But this time, the Arsenal team first found Yang Daye through Xhaka.With the help of Talisca, Yang Daye successfully advanced through halftime and entered the area of ​​​​the Messi corridor.

In this area, Yang Daye can get bonuses, but facing the encirclement and suppression of many people, he naturally can't just force it by himself.He saw the opportunity and passed the ball to Lacazette.

Lacazette failed to form a chance to shoot under Stones' defense, and could only pass back to Xhaka who followed.Xhaka tried a long-range shot, but it missed.

This time the offensive formed a goal, which is not bad.

Turning around, Manchester City also played a very threatening fast attack.

They also attacked from the back, but when the ball came to De Bruyne's feet, he used a precise long pass to let Sane successfully lap.

Then, Sane used a triangle coordination tactic with Aguero and Sterling, allowing Sterling to complete a kick near the penalty spot.

Hitting the door at this location is really too threatening.Fortunately, today's goalkeeper Leno performed bravely, and he bravely blocked Sterling's slightly positive kick out of the bottom line.

Arsenal dodged a bullet.

But Manchester City's attack continued.The corner kick they took was pushed out of the penalty area by Arsenal, but it still fell to the feet of Manchester City.Then De Bruyne took a long shot that wiped the goal post and went out of bounds.

"Wow!!!"

The continuous threat of attack made Manchester City fans both regretful and excited.During this period of offense, it seems that Manchester City is more dominant.This gave them growing confidence.

The next game is similar to this situation.Although Arsenal still have opportunities to attack, Lacazette, who likes to adjust before shooting, has reduced their offensive threat a lot.

Lacazette can play the ball, he passed a lot of good balls to his teammates.But Yang Daye, who has the most finishing ability, is regarded as dead, while Mkhitaryan, Taliska and others have difficulty achieving more threatening shots in front of stronger opponents.

This situation really encouraged the Manchester City team.Let them play more and more confidently.Gradually, the Arsenal team that had the lead was slowly losing ground.In the end, more energy had to be put on defense.

When it comes to defense, Lacazette can make better defensive contributions than Aubameyang.Although the Arsenal team was not as good as Manchester City in terms of offense at the beginning, but under the tenacious defense of their team, they did a better defense than Aubameyang before he left the field.

"Bang!" Aguero shot.

"Bang!" Sane knocked on the door.

"Bang!" Lacazette kicked.

"Bang!" De Bruyne took a long shot.

"Bang!" Yang Daye kicked back.

……

The game time is constantly disappearing in the continuous alternating attacks of both sides.

As time gets closer to the end, Manchester City's offense becomes fiercer.

Fortunately, everyone in the Arsenal team knows the importance of this game, and there is no slack in the slightest.Before the referee blew his whistle, none of them dared to relax their vigilance.

Under the strict defense of the Arsenal team, although Manchester City had the advantage on the field after Aubameyang was injured and retreated, they failed to score until the end of the first half.

"Beep! Beep~"

The referee's whistle finally sounded, and the first half was finally over.The score was still 0:1, and the Arsenal team in the away game kept the lead.

"Hey, it's really unlucky. We didn't score a goal. But it doesn't matter, as long as we can maintain this offensive, we will definitely be able to achieve a reversal in the second half."

Whether it is the players or the fans of the Manchester City team, they are not reconciled to the results of the first half.However, they are now full of confidence in the second half of the game.

"Huh~ I finally carried it over."

"Fortunately, we had a goal lead in the first half, otherwise I can't imagine what will happen now."

At the end of the first half, everyone on the Arsenal team breathed a sigh of relief.

It's just that the relief is temporary.According to the situation in the second half of the first half, Arsenal will not be able to handle it if the second half is not done well.

We can only hope that the coaching staff can change this situation.

It's just that when the opponent is stronger and has home court advantage, Wenger has no good way.If you want to target, you have to have a weakness in your opponent!
However, given the better and better state of Manchester City and the current situation of Arsenal, it is obviously difficult to force Manchester City to show its weaknesses.

As for what strategy to use in the second half, Wenger fell into deep thought.

"Coach, why don't we just defend the game in the second half." Yang Daye suggested.

As the person who is most aware of Manchester City's strength and advantages on the field, he doesn't think it is a good way to maintain the tactics of the first half or change to a confrontation with Manchester City.Instead of this, it's better to simply put the bus on the defensive, and then he will take on the team's counterattack all by himself.

And he also knew that with Wenger's temperament, it would be difficult to make such decisions as placing a bus.So he made his own proposal.

"Defend?" Wenger looked up at Yang Daye.

"Yes. With the current situation, whether it is to strengthen the offense or maintain the strategy of the first half, it will not be more beneficial to us. Therefore, I think it is better to just stick to the defense." Yang Daye said own ideas.

"Well, let me think~"

After Wenger listened, he began to think.I saw his brows were tightly knit together, and a tangled look flashed across his face from time to time.

After a long time, a firm look finally appeared on Wenger's face.He raised his head and said resolutely: "Okay, let's use Yang's suggestion. In the second half, we will defend with all our strength."

After finishing speaking, he came to the tactical board and continued: "Our formation does not need to be changed. We still use 4231. Everyone has retreated halftime. The back line sticks to the defensive third area, and the others are in the front and back of the third defensive area. In the midfield area, fight with the opponent."

Having said that, Wenger turned to look at Yang Daye.

"However, we can't blindly defend. Otherwise, it will become waiting for death. Therefore, we also need to counterattack and use the threat of counterattack to contain them. Yang, while you are participating in defense, you must be ready to counterattack at any time. Once you take If you want the ball, you have to attack without hesitation. In this way, we will have a greater chance of defending."

"Understood!" Yang Daye nodded solemnly.

"Other people also have something to pay attention to..." Wenger continued to instruct others.

The intermission was very short, and Wenger was not given a chance to say too much, and the broadcast was notified that he could play.

"...This is the arrangement for the second half. Let's go. I believe you will not let me down." After Wenger finished speaking, he waved his hand and led the way out.

"You won't be disappointed!"

Yang Daye was the last to leave the locker room. When he walked out of the locker room, his eyes were full of determination and confidence.

He dared to make such a proposal to Wenger because he actually had another hole card.

After the results of the first half, he found that the activation conditions of "The Ice Prince's Mantle" were met.

The brainstorming activated by this ability will not bring him the absolutely winning skills.But it often allows him to do incredible things on the court.

Not necessarily a goal-scoring feat, but perhaps one that would allow him to reach the Messi corridor.As long as he reaches that area, he can create a threat and cause Manchester City to have a crisis in the backcourt.

rely on you.Hope you can let me help the team.

Later, the two sides quickly returned to the field and started the second half of the game at the referee's whistle.

"What? Shameless! You even set up a bus."

"It's disgusting! Arsenal, you cowards, come out! Don't be so obscene with the bus, okay?"

"You are Arsene Wenger's Arsenal, not Mourinho's Manchester United. Come out and compete with us, can you not shrink in the backcourt like this?"

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Arsenal's practice of retreating across the board immediately made Manchester City fans very dissatisfied.Falling behind compared to before, but also make them unhappy.

As well-informed Premier League fans, Manchester City fans naturally know that Arsenal's way of placing the bus will bring great difficulties to Manchester City's offense.

With the height of Manchester City's frontcourt strikers Aguero and Sterling, they can't use the high ball that is often used in the face of the iron barrel.In addition, they are one goal behind, and Arsenal's approach really makes them very uncomfortable.

Arsenal are all shrunk in the backcourt, and the dense defense makes it difficult for Manchester City to penetrate the defense through ground penetration.And the bottom pass is also ineffective because of the height of the striker.

It can be said that in the face of Arsenal's bus, Manchester City can only rely on De Bruyne and others' long-range shots to create threats.And this situation naturally made the threat created by Manchester City far less than that in the first half.

In addition, the occasional counterattack executed by Yang Daye, Manchester City's defenders could not ignore it and press up to participate in the siege.

In this way, after the start of the second half, Manchester City took the initiative and absolute possession of the ball.But they have these advantages for nothing, but they can't score goals.

"Come on! Manchester City. Must score!"

Under the hiss of the home fans, Manchester City continued to attack Arsenal.

But as time went by, they were always unable to break through Arsenal's goal.Because of this, they became more and more irritable.

When the time passed 10 minutes, Guardiola also began to deploy troops again and again, trying to increase Manchester City's offensive firepower.

After the substitution, Manchester City's desire to attack immediately increased a lot.Started to attack more crazily, but also fight more desperately.

When the game came to 65 minutes, after holding off a wave of Manchester City's offense, the ball returned to Arsenal.

Under the siege of the opponent, Leno, who took the goal kick, did not dare to let his teammates take the ball from the backcourt.He chose to drive his feet forward.What you think about is how far you can kick the ball.

Leno's big foot drove the ball to the middle circle, and Lacazette happened to be in that area, but his contention for the top was better than nothing.He couldn't touch the ball at all, other than to interfere a bit.

The ball was headed by Stones, and the ball flew to Silva who had just come up a few minutes.It's just that Silva, who is not so strong in confrontation, failed to stop the ball under Torreira's fierce confrontation, and was kicked by the latter.

The ball kicked by Torreira was lucky to fly to Lacazette.Lacazette stopped the ball with his chest, but under the pressure of Stones behind him and Gundogan who was attacking in the past, he was forced to kick the ball behind him like a clearance.

The ball flew high and floating upfield.

Yang Daye, who crossed the center line when seeing Lacazette stop the ball, hurriedly ran forward at the moment.

It's just that he is a lot behind Laporte, who is dragging behind, after all, and he still runs diagonally.Look, Laporte will rush to the ball's landing point one step ahead of him.With Laporte's height of 1.9 meters, the ball falling from the air will definitely be pushed away by him first.

Almost everyone thinks so.Therefore, Manchester City's goalkeeper Ederson has no intention of attacking, but his position is slightly forward.

However, what is unexpected is that when Laporte has already started to prepare for the header.Yang Daye's speed increased a little in vain.

Laporte stared at the ball falling from the air, and began to prepare to take off vigorously.But at this moment, he suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes, and then Yang Daye, who he thought was still ten meters away, appeared in front of him.And it flies high in the air like a professional high jumper.

That's right, in Laporte's view, it is flying in the air.Yang Daye was almost horizontal in the air, and his height was higher than Laporte's head.Then, Yang Daye, who was flying across the air, made a sideways strafing motion.

For all this, Laporte could do nothing but watch Yang Daye sweep the ball flying in the air.

"boom!"

The ball that fell from the sky changed direction and flew towards the goal at a faster speed.

Laporte's eyes followed the ball and looked in the direction of the goal, and then panic began to float in his eyes.

"No~!!"

Time seemed to stop.Amidst Laporte's exclamation, goalkeeper Ederson backed up again and again, and then jumped up vigorously, trying to block the ball with his hands.However, all of Edson's actions were in vain.

The ball still flew into the goal.

GOAL!!!
The whole stadium fell silent instantly as the ball flew into the goal.

A second later, the Arsenal team started to roar wildly.

"Come in! God! Super Flying Immortal!!"
