Chapter 145: The Iron Bucket Formation of the Hammer Gang

"Arsenal is still patiently trying to counterattack. They are constantly looking for opportunities outside the penalty area. However, facing the iron barrel formation set up by West Ham United, they can't find a good way for a while!"

West Ham United's iron-barrel formation made Arsenal very uncomfortable. The most important thing was that they did not fall for the trick and almost never ran out of the penalty area without giving them even the slightest chance.

Arsenal still patiently started to reverse, and even Yin Wobi performed lateral dribbling in the middle several times, hoping to seduce the opponent's players to run out of the penalty area, but the opponent was not fooled.

After going back and forth, the commentator saw more.

"Arsenal is taking the initiative to lure West Ham United out to grab the ball and expand some running space inside the penalty area."

However, West Ham United still did not come out to press.

"These guys are so hopeless!"

Yin Wobi said with a depressed look.

He had exposed such a big flaw, and the distance when hitting the ball was also longer, but these guys didn't make any move.

No matter how you seduce him, he won't come out.

Do you really plan to hold on until the end?

Lucky also felt extremely depressed, but he still said the same thing.

"Be patient! Take your time!"

Arsenal are still trying. They control most of the ball possession in the field. This may be the game in which Arsenal has the most ball possession this season.

But facing West Ham United, which has no desires and desires, they really have no good solution.

Time passed little by little.

Finally, in the 31st minute, they successfully lured out two West Ham United players.

Saka's continuous lateral dribbling angered the furious West Ham players, who rushed out to press.

At the critical moment, Saka completed the pass before being brought down by the opponent.

Yin Wobi got the ball from the wing, but he failed to find Giroud at the first time.

This also caused Giroud to wait for a second or two after running into position, and this second or two was enough for the opponent's players to react and quickly come over.

"Yin Wobi! I wasn't decisive enough in playing the ball. I failed to take advantage of this opportunity!"

"Kai didn't step forward. If the ball was left to Kai to handle, there might be better results!"

Paul Merson shook his head and sighed, and then said: "West Ham United must resist the temptation!"

West Ham United took the initiative to press, but they did not lose the ball. Although they failed to grab the ball, they failed to make Arsenal threaten their goal. This made these Hammers players start to have some thoughts.

Maybe you can really fight back?

"Defense!

Defend!

"

The head coach's angry shouts dismissed their thoughts.

They returned to the penalty area and continued to build the iron barrel formation.

Arsenal also conducted patiently again.

Time passed little by little.

The first half was coming to an end, but Arsenal still had no chance.

Even though Lucky was positioned higher up, West Ham United had no intention of approaching.

Until the end of the first half, they failed to seduce West Ham United players to take the initiative to run out of the penalty area again.

Inside the Arsenal dressing room.

"These guys don't want to rush out at all. If it doesn't work, just attack by force!"

"There is still some hope for a strong attack from the wing. If we continue to conduct this way, the opponent will never come out, and we will only become more and more passive!"

"They need to be put under some pressure!"

Arsenal players said anxiously.

After Mourinho and Lucky looked at each other, Mourinho said: "Continue to maintain the tactics of the first half and play patiently!"

Hearing Mourinho's words, these gunners could only sigh secretly.

At this moment, they were in an extremely depressed mood.

On West Ham United's side, the head coach emphasized the need to defend again and again.

The proactive attack in the first half made the coach feel uncomfortable. He knew that West Ham United were not a bunch of good babies.

As one of the worst-tempered teams in the Premier League, their players are a group of unruly players.

This is also the biggest problem for West Ham United. In addition, the head coach has not yet fully controlled the locker room, so players may act out of temper.

At the same time, on the commentary desk, Paul Merson and Dixon were also analyzing.

"West Ham scored first five minutes into the first half, which was something none of us could have imagined."

"But we have to admit that West Ham United played very smart!"

"Arsenal, on the other hand, are gradually recovering from the sequelae after the war. They are not focused enough and enter the game too slowly!"

Dixon sighed; "This is the sequelae of a dense schedule!"

Arsenal would never have made this mistake in the past.

They entered the game faster than anyone else and were extremely cautious at the beginning.

However, while their energy is being drained from game to game, it is also shaking their state.

This game was a typical lack of concentration and was caught by West Ham United.

Although Arsenal want to make amends, can they really seize the opportunity?

In the commentator's words, players from both sides walked out of the tunnel.

At the beginning of the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought.

The second half started almost like the first half.

Arsenal still surrounded the opponent's penalty area, while West Ham United looked like they were defending.

For 30 minutes, West Ham United couldn't give a single flaw.

But as time passed and there was not much game time left, these Hammers players began to get ready to make a move.

Lucky and the Arsenal players were also surprised by this.

I'm not afraid that you might want to fight back, but I'm just afraid that you won't move.

In the 81st minute, during a lateral dribble by Yin Wobi, Joao Mario suddenly stepped forward and stretched out his foot to poke the ball out.

At this time, Joao Mario had a look of surprise on his face.

As long as he covers a distance of five meters, he can leave most of the Arsenal players behind and drive in to create a shooting opportunity for his own centre-forward.

Once he wins, he passes and shoots, and he is definitely the biggest contributor to the game.

Thinking of these, Joao Mario sped up.

When he was about to catch up with the ball, his eyes flashed.

A figure passed by his speed and took the ball away at the same time.

Joao Mario turned his head and saw Kante passing the ball to Lucky.

At this time, most of the West Ham United players had already run out of the penalty area in order to cooperate with Joao Mario's counterattack.

"Hurry! Pull back!"

Seeing Lucky holding the ball, these players panicked and wanted to retreat.

But where are their legs to pass the ball?

Lucky didn't stop the ball and hit the ball in the middle.

The ball flew in an accurate arc towards the front of Giroud's running.

Under the interference of the opponent's central defender, Giroud resisted the confrontation and completed the take-off. With Lucai's extremely comfortable pass, he slammed the ball towards the ground on the right side.

The ball hit the ground and immediately flew from the goalkeeper's arm into the goal.

Arsenal equalized in the 82nd minute.

"Goal!

! Goal!

Giroud!

"

"Arsenal finally equalized in the 82nd minute after patiently attacking."

"West Ham United defended for 80 minutes, but they couldn't resist the temptation after all!"

This goal gave Arsenal players some relief.

But they had no intention of ending the attack.

After a brief celebration, they returned to halftime.

After West Ham United kicked off, they didn't want the ball at all. Arsenal grabbed the ball and immediately used the two wings to start a strong attack.

"Arsenal does not intend to maintain this score. Yes, they want to compete for the championship. Every victory they win is extremely crucial!"

"After West Ham United conceded the goal, they continued to retreat in defense. Although they may have lost hope of victory, they could still score a point on the road. This is something they absolutely do not want to lose."

As the commentator said, Arsenal wanted to win, but after West Ham United lost hope of victory, they began to want a draw.

But Arsenal's offense is getting tougher, especially from the two wingers. The tough breakthroughs of Saka and Aubameyang put a lot of pressure on them.

Facing Arsenal's strong breakthrough, West Ham United players became more and more frightened.

These two guys worked hard to get in. They didn't dare to make any big moves in the penalty area.

If any action constitutes a foul, it will be a penalty kick.

But can they really resist?

And after the score was equalized, their mentality was different, they were more nervous, and nervousness can easily make people make mistakes.
