We agreed to play football together, and you will be the head coach?

Chapter 286: Van Persie cuts inside, background music Zidane

In the 21st minute, De Bruyne retreated to avoid Alexander Song's defense.

Three of Arsenal's big four were on the field today.

"Van Ambition" Van Persie.

"Self-interest" Nasri.

"Song Gongming" Alexander Song.

After De Bruyne retreated, Lewandowski's range of movement became wider. He retreated and pulled, and Arsenal's defense line was raised a little.

The distance between the center back and the goalkeeper is slightly greater.

For offensive players, there is more space to sprint.

Ashley Young made a fake pass to De Bruyne on the left, then he dribbled the ball at high speed to complete the breakthrough.

boom!
Before he even got to the bottom line, he saw this opportunity and sent a curved cross.

Dong Fangzhuo sprinted behind Koscielny.

Before the opponent gets close to you, kick the ball without stopping!

Still using the left foot.

The offensive means are quite rich.

Koscielny could do nothing, but Szczesny made a contribution.

He reacted quickly in front of the goal, threw the ball with both hands and blocked it to the other side.

This was a save of extremely high quality.

Outside the right side of the penalty area, Albrighton received the ball, stopped and picked it up, then put the ball into the penalty area again and headed a cross!
Lewandowski sprinted in the middle of the penalty area, but got discouraged halfway because the ball did not lock on him.

At the back post, Dong Fangzhuo, who held off Koscielny and completed his shot, was blocked by Koscielny behind him and was unable to make a follow-up shot.

But with Albrighton's cross, the ball was not that close to the goal.

In this way, the offense and defense changed, and it was Dong Fangzhuo who blocked Koscielny again.

Dong Fangzhuo pushed Koscielny, used the force to bounce back and leapt high.

A lion shook his head and pushed the football into the net!
"GOAL! One to zero! Aston Villa scored the first goal!"

"The goal was scored by Dong Fangzhuo! This Chinese soccer king is unstoppable. He can score goals with his head and feet! He can score goals whenever he wants!"

"You can block his attack once, but you can't withstand his continuous attacks using different means! He is simply an offensive kaleidoscope!"

"He has attempted three shots so far, all of which were very dangerous, with his right foot, left foot and head."

"No wonder Ferguson has always wanted to bring Dong Fangzhuo back to Manchester United. He is simply a young version of Van Nistelrooy + a low-profile version of Cristiano Ronaldo!"

Don’t think that low-profile is unpleasant.

After all, Ronaldo has been recognized as the world's number one player in the past three years.

This goal changed the game for both sides.

Arsenal played more aggressively.

In the 27th minute, Nasri passed the ball to Wilshere before Kante came up to harass him.

Wilshere received the ball and accelerated, eating De Bruyne alive and hitting Ding Ding with a surprise attack.

After passing De Bruyne, he made a through pass.

Arshavin cut inside without the ball and shot with one hand.

However, Schmeichel Jr. attacked very quickly, blocked the ball with his body, and completed a god-level save.

Arsenal fans sighed.

They started singing the team song to encourage the players, saying that if they kept up the pressure, Arsenal would definitely score a goal.

In the 32nd minute, Arsenal surrounded Villa.

The offensive of beautiful football is as oppressive as He's Real Madrid and Guardiola's Barcelona.

boom!
Sagna lost his patience and launched an attack with a cross.

Boateng easily suppressed Van Persie and headed the ball out of the penalty area.

After receiving the ball, Eriksen launched a counterattack and advanced with the ball himself.

This move caused Nasri, who anticipated that he would pass the ball to De Bruyne, to lose his position.

Eriksen dribbled the ball to the center circle only to be surrounded by Arsenal from the front and back.

Eventually he was brought down by Alexander Song.

But he managed to poke the football out before falling to the ground.

De Bruyne, who was following nearby, took the ball and continued to move forward, completing the relay.

Dong Fangzhuo and Lai Wan were on the left and right, two ghosts knocking on the door.

Zhu Lu is a central defender and his speed is not fast. He has to defend two people at the same time, so you can imagine how difficult it is.

De Bruyne glanced at Dong Fangzhuo, and Djokovic moved towards Dong Fangzhuo.

boom!
Look left and pass right.

De Bruyne made a through pass.

Lewandowski caught up with the ball and challenged Szczesny alone.

At this moment, time seemed to go back, and both of them returned to seven or eight years ago.

At that time, they were all youth players of Legia Warsaw Football Club.

We met again in the national team in the last two years, so we have a good relationship.

I didn’t expect that we would meet in the League Cup final this season, and it was a one-on-one situation.

In the end, Lewandowski bullied Szczesny, who was three years younger than him, just like he did before. He made a fake move to trick the opponent into going to the ground, then he passed the goalkeeper and shot!

"GOAL! Two to zero! Villa staged a textbook counterattack!"

"Lewandowski dribbled past the Arsenal goalkeeper. This is his teammate in the national team!"

"When facing players who are weaker than him, Lewandowski is always extremely confident and can play 120% of his ability."

"This might be the legendary innate holy body for bullying weaklings!"

……

Trailing by two goals, Arsenal inevitably became impatient.

The situation got a little out of control.

Nasri wanted to change the situation with his personal ability and frequently stuck to the ball.

Beautiful football has come to a standstill.

But with his superb personal skills, he did create a corner kick.

In the 36th minute, Wilshere took a tactical corner kick and passed it to Nasri on the right side outside the penalty area.

Nasri made a slight adjustment and shot with a powerful kick.

This was a shot with absolutely no scoring angle.

Because there are too many players in front of the goal.

Wenger shook his head repeatedly.

but……

Bang!
Dong Fangzhuo was hit on the head by the football and fell to the ground.

As everyone knows, my boss has a world-class head.

So his head...

The team doctor rushed in and when conducting a concussion test on Dong Fangzhuo, Dong Fangzhuo reacted slowly and failed to quickly identify the team doctor's finger.

The player status panel also showed that he was at risk for concussion.

He Tianqi had to use a substitution quota.

Giroud replaced Dong Fangzhuo and played as center forward.

Lewandowski took Dong Fangzhuo's position and played as a left winger.

In the eyes of Villa fans, Dong Fangzhuo's injury is not a big problem.

After all, Lewandowski is known as the "Little King of Dong" and is an all-around striker, so he has no problem playing as a left winger.

In the 39th minute, Nasri was entangled by Kante again when he had the ball.

Arshavin came to meet him.

He was brought down by Walker when he received the ball and turned around, and Arsenal won a free kick in a good position.

Wilshere took a free kick and players from both sides rushed forward to score.

While being marked by Bonucci, Van Persie fell to the ground and shot, touching the ball before Bonucci.

At this distance, Schmeichel couldn't react at all.

"GOAL! One to two! Van Persie scored a goal and scored for Arsenal!"

"At the critical moment, the ambitious Van Persie stood up!" "He said that he wanted to bring championships to Arsenal, not just the FA Cup! Although he mentioned the Champions League and the Premier League, it would also be nice if he could win the League Cup as well."

"Based on the current situation this season, this is the championship trophy they are most likely to win!"

"Huh? He Tianqi is complaining on the sidelines?"

The camera turned to He Tianqi, who stretched out his right hand, made an offside gesture, and kept shouting, "Offside! This goal was offside! This is an invalid goal!"

But the linesman remained indifferent and the referee insisted on his decision, saying the goal was valid.

The score became one to two.

However, in the subsequent replay on the big screen, people found that Van Persie was indeed offside when Wilshere passed the ball.

He started sideways and his shoulder was beyond Bonucci's body.

This was a misjudgment.

However, VAR technology had not yet been introduced into football during this period, so such major misjudgments could not be corrected on the spot.

So misjudgments are still part of the game.

Of course, in the future, when VAR technology becomes popular, misjudgments will no longer be part of the game, but manipulation will become part of the game. The division of some offside lines depends entirely on what notifications the video referee assistant receives in the small black room.

The moment the passer touches the ball, the player in front has too many options for running positions, and different choices within the range of the rules can lead to very different results.

Sometimes I think it would be better to let football technology remain in the era before VAR.

At least at that time, everyone still believed that some of the penalties were indeed misjudgments.

Compared with accusations such as technical and tactical regression and decline in player ability, the loss of credibility is the root cause of the decline of all sports events.

In the 44th minute, Villa launched an attack.

Eriksen passed the ball to Albrighton, who made a wonderful cross.

Giroud heads the ball into the goal.

But he hit it too straight, which wasted such a good physical condition.

He has never been an efficient finisher.

Lewandowski picked up the ball on the left side of the penalty area and tried to turn around and dribble into the penalty area.

But he lacks long-term experience cutting inside from the wing.

In this respect, he is half a Ribery away from the professionally trained Dong Fangzhuo.

Before Lewandowski could fully turn around, the ball was poked away by Koscielny.

boom!
Koscielny launched a counterattack with a long kick.

Van Persie got the ball in the frontcourt and cut inside.

Boateng has strong athletic ability and retreats to the defensive position one step faster, guarding against Percy one-on-one.

Van Persie accelerated and decelerated continuously.

Then he made a fake move to the right, which went out of Boateng's center of gravity, and then cut inward to the left.

Boateng's center of gravity shifted continuously. He was heavy and exerted too much force in an instant. The grass under his feet could not withstand the gravity and he slipped and fell straight back.

boom!
Schmeichel had just taken half a step when Van Persie had already completed the left-footed shot.

The football was extremely fast and hit the post and went into the near corner.

Be quick and accurate!
This is one of the best strikers in the world - Robin van Persie!

"GOAL! Two to two!"

"Incredible!"

"Robin Hood came down from the sky and scored two goals in five minutes to help Arsenal equalize the score!"

"Too strong! At this moment, Van Persie seems to be possessed by Ribery!"

"Although he is only 70% as smooth as Ribery, don't forget that Van Persie also has his own advantages over Ribery... He is better in physical confrontation and shooting!"

"Many people know that Van Persie is a center forward, but they don't know that he was once a winger like Cristiano Ronaldo, even before Cristiano Ronaldo became famous!"

"Van Persie used his sharp inside cut to show Lewandowski what a winger should do!"

"Wingers and center forwards have two completely different styles of play. The so-called all-around center forward simply cannot stand."

"At least Lewandowski is not an all-around center forward yet!"

"To be all-round, you must be good at everything! Whether it's Cristiano Ronaldo, Van Persie or Dong Fangzhuo, they have all played as winger and center forward."

"Cristiano Ronaldo and Robin van Persie were both taught to cut inside by He Tianqi himself. Robin van Persie and Dong Fangzhuo both learned to cut inside in Palermo."

"He Tianqi's favorite student used the unique move he taught to tie the score!"

"I believe that He Tianqi must be feeling mixed emotions at this moment!"

On the field, after scoring the goal, Van Persie immediately looked at He Tianqi.

Van Persie: You taught me, my idol!
Zidane was a little overwhelmed.

Letting Van Persie cut inside and using his sharp shooting skills to play as a center forward are both classic modifications made by He Tianqi on Van Persie.

Otherwise, Van Persie might become a traditional winger and be out of touch with the times.

Spain and Portugal are rich in flying wings.

But since Figo, traditional wingers have been unable to produce superstars.

Only the inverted winger that He Tianqi put back on the table has godhood!

If Van Persie wins the Champions League once with Arsenal, he will become a true god.

Unfortunately... two years ago, he encountered the Yin He battleship and was killed by his former master, so he had no chance to achieve the great path.

In the final stage of the first half, as De Bruyne's long shot went over the crossbar, the referee blew the whistle.

The first half is over.

Both sides entered the locker room.

Zidane wrote and drew on the whiteboard according to the tactical table recorded by He Tianqi in the first half, and sweat broke out as he wrote.

He Tianqi explained the tactical changes to the players: "Kante, you should reduce your defensive range appropriately and keep a close eye on Nasri! His position is more critical, and we cannot allow him to make any threatening passes or breakthroughs in the middle."

"De Bruyne, you have to defend Wilshere more and use your stronger physical fitness to put pressure on him. He can pass the ball, but he can't bring the ball to the front court himself, otherwise Kante's defense against Nasri will be meaningless."

Players like Wilshere and Fabregas played just as important a role in the frontcourt as Nasri.

The same is true for De Bruyne. When he is in the back, he can coordinate the transfer, and when he goes to the front, he is a top offensive accelerator.

In comparison, allowing them to make arrangements is already considered a defense.

"Lewandowski, you need to adjust your range of activities in the second half, reduce your activities on the left, and leave the left completely to Ashley Young." He Tianqi pointed at Lewandowski, "Ashley Young, paralyze Arsenal's right side and force Rosicky and Wilshere to participate in the defense."

"The back line should be adjusted to the left as appropriate, referring to the three-center-back play."

"Giroud, go forward and use your strengths as a pillar to put pressure on their back line. Leave your back to Lewandowski."

"Lewandowski, I don't care whether you play as a shadow striker, a second striker, a number nine and a half, or any other name, but I want you to ambush behind Giroud and seize every opportunity."

"I want you to show your finishing efficiency, this is the key to our victory!"

Lewand nodded, knowing how heavy the burden was on him.

He Tianqi rarely gives up on players, but Reyes is one of them.

It was because Reyes simply didn't stand up when He Tianqi thought he should.

Lewandowski doesn't want to follow in Reyes' footsteps.

He doesn't want to be a player with gorgeous stats but who is unable to play in crucial games.

He is indeed good at bullying weak opponents, but he also hopes to be able to attack the strong points himself.

He wants to become the first all-around center in history!

Under the leadership of He Tianqi, he found himself moving forward on this path!

"Okay, does anyone have any questions?" The halftime break was about to end and He Tianqi was ready to wrap up.

"Well, boss, I have a question." Ashley Young pointed at Zidane and said, "What you just said is completely different from what Zidane wrote. There is no connection at all."

"Then why let Zidane write it?"

Zidane was stunned for a moment, then he realized that it seemed to be true.

For a moment, everyone looked at He Tianqi.

"Um..." He Tianqi coughed twice, "Now that the score and the game are so tense, don't you think we should have some background animations and background sounds of people writing furiously when we are arranging tactics?"

"This will better mobilize my thinking and your emotions."

"Okay, then, everyone, get ready for the game."

He Tianqi escaped from the locker room first.

Then the sound of a group of players pulling Zidane to stop the fight was heard.

snort!
mock up!

Who made you laugh in the first half when Van Persie equalized the score?
I'll make things difficult for you!

Wear small shoes!
