Strong Waist

Chapter 30 Are we so strong?

"It's been 76 minutes, and Paris Saint-Germain's attack is still ineffective. Paris' problem is to strengthen the attack, but we only see Neymar playing effectively on the offensive end, and there is no fundamental change!" "And Mbappe, who we have high hopes for, is completely invisible in this game!" The French commentator basically has to accept the loss of the game at this time. After all, from the scene, Arsenal has absolute control, and even when Paris counterattacks, others can't keep up. Neymar's opening is useless, Arsenal will quickly block these openings, and his teammates are always a step slower. Under the camera, Neymar shook his head helplessly many times. On the one hand, the pressure is too great under Arsenal's oppression. On the other hand, he can't get effective support from his teammates. "I feel that this Paris Saint-Germain team plays a little too strangely. They did not integrate Neymar into the tactical system, nor did they play an effective rhythm around him. Instead, they let Neymar create opportunities alone, while others waited to score goals!"

"This is an extremely wrong direction in modern football. I don't believe this is the team under Emery's lineup, but Neymar's presence is indeed abrupt for Paris!"

As commentator Paul Mossen said, Neymar has not yet fully integrated into the system in Paris.

In Ligue 1, facing weaker opponents and insufficient accumulation of games, this problem was well covered up.

But in the face of Arsenal, under the pressure of this Champions League powerhouse, various problems and even the biggest problems began to be exposed.

Neymar did not integrate into the Paris system.

He could not form a tacit cooperation with other teammates.

And under the influence of emotions, the Paris players played a little self-destructively.

The most obvious one is Mbappe.

Mbappe is only 18 years old this year. Unlike last season when many teams did not know him well, after entering this season, Mbappe's information and characteristics have been arranged on the coach's desk.

He has been studied thoroughly in all aspects without blind spots. This situation is the so-called "rookie wall".

Of course, it may also be that Lucky based on these data and combined with his own ability limitations.

Anyway, Mbappe's play was so uncomfortable.

Faced with this situation, the 18-year-old child's temper came up.

If you don't let me pass, then I will pass you.

For this reason, Mbappe retreated very deep and even came to his own half area to receive the ball.

When the ball was passed to Mbappe, he was ready to turn around and rush.

At the same time, Lucky also rushed over quickly.

Seeing Lucky, Mbappe was a little panicked.

He was suppressed throughout the game, and he was extremely afraid of Lucky. For this reason, he dribbled the ball hard, dribbled the ball far away, and was ready to rush past Lucky without the ball.

But Lekai's close speed was very fast. While Mbappe was still not accelerating, Lekai quickly approached and stretched out his right hand, secretly pulling down Mbappe's jersey.

Mbappe felt the pressure, his body lowered, his bent knees could not be fully extended, and the whole person did not rush up.

But even so, he quickly adjusted and prepared to start again.

Lekai stretched out his hand again, down!

Mbappe did not rush up again.

Time and time again, before Mbappe and Lekai rushed to the ball, Robertson had arrived in advance and passed the ball to the central defender.

Paris Saint-Germain lost the ball again.

Lekai and Mbappe stopped.

At this moment, Lekai was a little worried.

"It's so fast!"

If he hadn't pulled him immediately, Mbappe would have passed him with just a speed up.

He was pulled down by Lekai three times in a row when he started to speed up.

This kid is quite honest and did not fall to the ground to cheat a card.

But even if he cheated a card, the referee would probably not give it.

Lekai stood right between the referee and Mbappe, so his small movements with his right hand were naturally separated.

Moreover, Lekai pulled once, then quickly let go, and then pulled again when Mbappe wanted to speed up.

In this case, the referee only regarded the two as normal physical confrontations.

It has to be said that Lekai has learned a lot of "dirty" tricks now.

Paris once again wasted the opportunity to counterattack.

At this time, the time entered the 76th minute.

Mourinho made substitutions.

Wilshere went off and Ramsey came on.

Robertson went off and Monreal came on.

This further increased the thickness of the defense.

Paris Saint-Germain also quickly made two substitutions.

One offensive substitution and one defensive substitution.

Back and forth, the problem in the midfield was still not solved.

When the time entered the 85th minute, the French commentator also said helplessly;

"No matter what the result of this game is, Paris must face up to its own problems. Emery must quickly solve the problem of Neymar's running-in with the team, and it is even necessary to intervene more!"

"At the same time, the lineup and playing style must be more diverse. I am just a commentator, not a professional head coach, and I am not qualified to make opinions, but after watching this game, I think everyone feels the same as me!"

"Paris Saint-Germain failed to achieve the results we expected!"

"Their overall game is too sloppy! You know, this is not a league. In the top Champions League, any small problem will be infinitely magnified, let alone so many problems!"

"The reason why Paris still maintains a 1:0 score is largely due to the excellent performance of the defense, and also because Arsenal has not come up with another system!"

"We need to know that Giroud was on the bench for the whole game. I think fans who know Arsenal know very well that Arsenal still retains a tactical system that revolves around Giroud!"

"And we haven't even been able to force the system out, which is very frustrating!"

"This is the first round of the Champions League. We can lose, but we must review and summarize it. We cannot continue like this!"

With the commentator's words, time finally entered the injury time period.

At this time, Paris Saint-Germain's fighting spirit was almost wiped out.

Arsenal received consecutive corner kick opportunities.

In the third corner kick, Lukaku finally scored the final goal in the melee.

This goal also made Lukaku roar to the sky and vent his inner frustration.

Based on this goal, Arsenal leads Paris Saint-Germain 2:0.

In injury time, Paris Saint-Germain had no hope of making a comeback.

The 90-minute game is over!

The final whistle sounded.

Arsenal defeated Paris Saint-Germain 2-0 at home.

The course of this game was somewhat unexpected.

Paris Saint-Germain, which received huge attention from everyone, was even called the 'French Galactico' and lost the first game in Paris.

Arsenal won this game with an almost perfect suppression ability.

After this game, there were also huge changes to the format of Group H.

Arsenal and Dortmund both won.

On the other hand, Paris Saint-Germain, which had high hopes, lost the first game.

Of course, fans can also understand losing, after all, Arsenal is a strong opponent.

But it’s OK to lose, but you can’t lose so completely.

In this game, Paris Saint-Germain exposed too many problems, and these problems are likely to be exploited by other opponents.

These are things that PSG urgently need to address.

"Arsenal perfectly suppressed Paris!" Victory in the first battle! 》

"Exaggerated fighting power in Paris?" 》

"Neymar! Mbappe stops! Kai is on full fire! 》

"Arsenal defeats Paris Saint-Germain, the Gunners may be stronger than expected!" 》

After a game, Europe is full of news about Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain.

Paris' defeat was a bit unexpected, but looking back, it's not unacceptable.

After all, Arsenal is also a strong team.

But if you watch the whole process of the game, it will give people a great sense of depression.

Paris Saint-Germain played pretty well in the first half, and both sides were attacking each other at this stage.

But soon, with Lucky's goal, Arsenal quickly gained momentum.

On the other hand, Paris Saint-Germain is getting further and further away from victory.

Emery's substitutions have been criticized.

Whether Rabiot should be dismissed has become the hottest topic in Europe.

Even Paris fans' doubts about Emery have become more and more intense.

But for Arsenal, they won the first round and also showed their strength to the outside world.

Even after watching this game, Arsenal fans were like, ‘Are we so strong? 'a feeling of.

They don't know if Arsenal is really strong, or if Paris really has too many problems.

But this is still a good start for their Champions League journey!
