I brush achievements in football

In the No.14 round of the league, Southampton challenged Arsenal away.

This is actually quite a challenge for Southampton.

Arsenal didn't start this season very well, but now they are gradually recovering. They are now ranked sixth, with the same points as Tottenham. Recently, their results have been good, but Southampton has suffered two unbeaten games. Meeting Arsenal under such circumstances is indeed not a good thing.

However, the next two games in the middle of the week are not the most important for Southampton. They can send all their main players in the game to deal with the opponent.

In this game, Kiya only had a small rotation on the front line. Lukaku and Mane sat on the bench. Perisic, Suarez and Vardy formed the three forwards, but in theory Perisic Qi is only active on the wing, while Suarez and Vardy are swimming in the penalty area, and the right is handed over to De Bruyne and Cancelo.

Wenger sent out a four-three-three formation, Chambers appeared at right-back, Chamberlain and Sanchez served as the two wings, Welbeck stepped forward, and Giroud sat on the bench.

In order to stop Southampton's midfielder, Wenger made great efforts in the middle. However, in this game, De Bruyne was more active on the side, and the center was handed over to Casemiro and Coutini. Oh, but the two of them basically feinted...

In this way, Arsenal's defense on the wing is quite passive.

Chambers is okay on the right. After all, he is also a relatively tall defender. Although it is difficult for Perisic, he still has a good performance. Monreal on the right is originally a Spanish player who is good at attacking. The full-back, being attacked by De Bruyne and Cancelo in turn, immediately couldn't support it.

Although the speed of De Bruyne and Cancelo is not very fast, the two men have sharp breakthrough skills and accurate crosses from the side. Under such circumstances, Monreal is quite miserable.

He was constantly being broken by De Bruyne or Cancelo, and he didn't dare not push up, because if he didn't push up, the crosses made by these two people at a 45-degree angle were also amazingly accurate.

Seeing Monreal's desperation, Wenger showed his decisiveness rarely, and asked Flamini to make up for the wing. Anyway, he didn't play left back once or twice, and assisted in making up for it. It can also stabilize the defense on this side.

After he went to assist in the defense, Arsenal's defense on the left was indeed more stable, but this is what Southampton wanted.

After Flamini, who was the most defensive in the middle, went to fill in, Cazorla participated in the attack in the front, and Ramsey's defense was not so safe. Arsenal's penalty area was immediately empty in the middle.

Soon, Coutinho received the ball from De Bruyne from the right. Vardy and Suarez ran to attract attention. Coutinho adjusted slightly and then immediately kicked and shot. !

The ball roared into Arsenal's gate. In this position, the unguarded Coutinho's long shot was almost unstoppable!

Although Arsenal's goalkeeper Martinez made a save, he was still a step behind!

Coutinho waved his fist vigorously. After playing as the main player in Southampton this season, his performance has been getting better and better, and it has also made Inter Milan regret it. If we knew this kid is so good, we should point more Money……

However, the tactics that Ji Ya specially created for Coutinho and it took him a year to adjust and adapt. How could Inter Milan have such patience at that time?

There is turmoil at the top of their club and it is difficult to develop good young players.

After taking the lead, Southampton's offense began to be more comfortable. They have an advantage against a team of the same skill as Arsenal. Now that they have the lead, it can only be said that their advantage is further expanding.

Southampton lost all the strong teams they encountered this season-they lost to Manchester City, Tottenham and Liverpool, and they basically won all the other teams. They only drew a game with Villa. It's a bit bullying.

However, when they played against Arsenal, their performance became quite good again.

This makes Arsenal fans very depressed-are we also a weak team?

Especially Southampton lost to Tottenham before...

But if you are not convinced, you are not convinced, Southampton still firmly suppressed Arsenal.

Southampton expanded the score again in No. 14 minutes-Valdy actively counterattacked in the frontcourt, intercepted the ball at Ramsey's feet, and then passed the ball to De Bruyne on the wing, De Bruyne The inside shot was passed into the penalty area, Suarez took off with a header and passed it to Vardy, who went forward. Vardy shot from the corner of the small penalty area for the first time, and the ball roared to the upper right corner of the goal!

Two to zero, Southampton expands its lead!

"Leading by two goals! Vardy scored again... I don't have any words to describe it. Many people think that Vardy's good form is short-lived, but it has lasted for almost half a season. We should admit that this is not true. An outstanding local shooter is also a good shooter!"

Vardy hugged Suarez with open arms. When he partnered with Suarez, Suarez often attracted firepower by himself, and then let Vardy get more opportunities. It is also because Vardy is in good condition recently, and he is indeed more likely to be caught. People focus on marking.

After he passes the ball more, the opponent's marking will naturally relax a little bit on him, and then it will be his chance.

Of course Suarez understands this kind of thing.

After leading by two goals, Southampton controlled the rhythm of the game in the following time. In the first half, Arsenal failed to counterattack successfully, and after the start of the second half, they continued to suppress Arsenal on both wings. The defensive line also disrupted the opponent's offensive rhythm.

Seeing that his team could only complete shots from outside the penalty area, Wenger replaced Chamberlain with Giroud in the second half, and changed to two forwards to strengthen the offense. It is much more concise, and it also allows them to pass through the midfield more quickly and directly hit the offense into the penalty area when the wing and the midfield are suppressed.

This is a huge test for Bailly.

His confrontation and height are not bad, but he is a little worse than Giroud, and his strength is also worse. Under such circumstances, he can almost be said to be eaten to death by Giroud.

However, he quickly showed his value. In the case of poor frontal confrontation, he began to give full play to his advantages in speed and reaction, constantly going around the front to defend and intercept the ball, and repeatedly intercepting the opponent's attack.

"Bailey's performance is good. Although he can't completely replace Wundt's role, it is still possible to replace Otamendi's position at some point." Ji Ya rubbed his chin and said.
