Strong Waist

Chapter 834 The lion shakes his head

The time is about to enter the intermission, and the score between Manchester City and Arsenal is still 1:1. Since the last goal, neither side has been able to score another goal.

Even though the tempo has accelerated and the number of shots has increased, there still hasn't been a single goal.

On the one hand, the two teams played more cautiously, on the other hand, they failed to seize many opportunities in fast sports battles.

At this time, the head coaches of both sides were already thinking about adjustments in the second half.

Soon, the referee blew the halftime whistle.

Throughout the first half, both teams scored a goal each and entered the halftime break tied.

Whoops!

Whoops!

Arsenal and Manchester City players came off the field one after another, and their breathing was extremely rapid.

As the pace quickens, they have less time to rest.

Almost the whole journey is running back and forth quickly. In this case, the physical challenge is extremely huge.

Even Lucai was sweating profusely at this time, as if he had been fished out of water.

A large amount of sweat flowed down his forehead.

Arteta handed Lucky a towel, and Lucky wiped his face at any time.

After entering the locker room, Lucky sat directly on the bench and began to rest.

The entire first half was a great test of physical fitness.

"We wasted several opportunities!" Giroud gasped; "We should slow down the pace a little so that we can seize those opportunities!"

"Slowing down the pace is not good for us. Manchester City's offense is more powerful than ours. Once they start playing smoothly, the pressure on our defense will become even greater!"

Wilshere shook his head and said; "I think we should increase the pressing in the frontcourt!"

Hearing this, the front players including Giroud, Mane, and Aubameyang turned green.

Giroud was better. Aubameyang and Mane frequently began to retreat to defend in the second half of the first half, which caused their physical fitness to drop the most.

In this case, if they continue to strengthen the pressing in the frontcourt, it will cost them their lives!

Wilshere's physical fitness is very good, but that does not mean that others are too.

The physical fitness of Aubameyang and Mane can only be regarded as mid-range in the team.

At this time, Mourinho walked in and everyone shut up.

After Mourinho entered the locker room, he said directly: "In the second half, we are retaining the original lineup, but we need to gain more control in the midfield!"

After experiencing the first half, Mourinho also understood that completely giving up the midfield rhythm would not be a good thing for Arsenal.

Moreover, Manchester City can also maximize its midfield capabilities.

As one goes, Arsenal's situation becomes even more difficult.

Therefore, there is still a midfield confrontation!

"Kai! Can you still run in the second half?"

Mourinho looked at Lucky.

Lucky closed his eyes and said loudly: "Yes!"

Lucky's voice was full of energy, which instantly calmed down the somewhat impetuous atmosphere in the locker room.

Mourinho looked at Lucky with appreciation.

Based on Lucky's influence on the locker room, his words often affect his teammates.

Just like now, people who complained before that they couldn't run have now begun to quickly recover their physical fitness with their eyes closed.

Next, Mourinho continued to issue tactics.

Basically, it strengthens the confrontation in the midfield and moves the main battlefield of both sides to alleviate the problem of defensive pressure.

At the same time, in the Manchester City dressing room, Guardiola had the same plan.

"In the second half, we must conduct more conduct. Arsenal's physical fitness has dropped seriously. As long as our conduct is effective enough, they will fall into greater fatigue.

During the game, the physical pressure on the defender is greater, and due to defensive issues, their running distance will be relatively longer.

For this reason, Guardiola needs to further consume Arsenal's physical energy while controlling the ball in the midfield.

"Arsenal may compete with us for midfield rhythm in the second half!" De Bruyne gasped.

In this regard, Guardiola nodded and said; "If this happens, then the only choice is to confront them, but the midfielder must play stronger. With our passing and control, the pressure on Arsenal is very high. "

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

Guardiola did not continue to be nagging, but asked the players to recover their physical fitness.

Both sides are preparing for the second half and are scrambling for time to rest.

Soon, a sharp whistle sounded.

"Damn it! Why so fast!"

"It felt like a minute passed!"

"Guys! Get up!"

"Ready to fight!"

The Arsenal players complained and stood up.

After a period of rest, my physical strength has recovered somewhat. Although not a lot, it is enough.

And the most important thing is to give them some breathing time.

Arsenal's players walked out of the dressing room with their heads lowered one by one.

They are all thinking about possible situations and solutions in the second half.

For Giroud, he is thinking about how to score goals.

At the end of the halftime break, the two sides returned to the field.

The expressions of the two teams were still extremely grim.

Obviously, they also know very well that the moment of real victory has arrived.

Based on the draw in the first half, the two teams will inevitably decide the winner in the second half.

For Arsenal and Manchester City, they both need to score first in the second half, which will make them play more smoothly.

"After the halftime break, the two teams returned to the field!"

"The first half ended in a 1:1 draw, but the second half will determine the winner!"

"Based on the performance in the first half, Manchester City needs to seize opportunities better. They wasted too many opportunities, especially they need to find a way to pass the ball to Aguero's feet, and they can no longer leave Aguero isolated in the frontcourt. state."

"As for Arsenal, they cannot completely give up the rhythm in the midfield. Facing the Manchester City team, they must compete in the midfield!"

Following the commentator's words, the two sides exchanged places.

Arsenal player Giroud stands in the center circle preparing to kick off.

As the whistle sounded, Giroud passed the ball backwards.

Commentator Andy Gray also opened the second half.

However, at the beginning of the second half, Manchester City fought fiercely.

Constantly pressing and pressing in the frontcourt.

Unlike the retreating defense in the first half, Manchester City played more proactively this time.

Of course, Arsenal are not a vegetarian. In small gaps, they can always find channels to pass the ball.

Although every pass is thrilling, he can still pass the ball steadily.

The most important thing is that the rhythm of both sides became faster than in the first half.

At the scene, fans of both teams also cheered and shouted wildly to motivate the players.

Amid cheers, Arsenal took the lead in attacking.

Lucky found Wilshere with a kick. Before the latter started, he gave Fernandinho a hard butt. He immediately caught the ball and turned around to complete the transfer.

After the transfer, Arsenal players rushed forward wildly.

Mane moved forward quickly with the ball. He wanted to take the ball directly.

However, the ball hit the foot of the Manchester City full-back and flew out of the baseline.

Arsenal wins a corner kick.

"Arsenal's first corner kick in the second half. Arsenal scored from a corner kick in the first half. Manchester City must be extra careful about Arsenal's corner kicks!"

Lucky and Giroud are still standing at the top of the arc, ready to move forward at any time.

At this time, Robertson's eyes collided with Wilshere's.

The two understood each other's meaning instantly.

Wilshere left the penalty area and ran towards the corner kick area.

Robertson also passed the ball to Wilshere.

Wilshere received the ball and turned, forcing City's full-back to follow suit.

After Wilshere saw someone pulled out, he passed the ball directly to Robertson who was outflanking the penalty area.

Robertson kicked the ball directly at the right angle of the penalty area.

Arsenal's tactical corner kick caused some confusion in Manchester City's defense. In this case, Giroud and Lucky can move forward better.

Robertson's pass carried a strong spin and flew into the penalty area in an arc.

Giroud took off and took off, and two Manchester City center backs also took off to restrict him.

But all three jumped too early, and the ball flew past Giroud's hair.

Less than two meters behind Giroud, Lucky also took off under the cover of Giroud and hit a lion's head.

The ball hit his forehead steadily and swung toward the goal.

"Kai!!!"

"This ball!!!"

Commentator Andy Gray stood up suddenly and cheered:

"Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
