Chapter 110 Long Pass Transfer

Chapter 1396 Long Pass Transfer

Manchester City intends to dominate the tempo, and even if they are unable to do so, they will never let Arsenal gain advantage in the midfield.

For this reason, their performance on offense was extremely intense.

From pass to pass, the offensive efficiency is getting faster and faster, and the transmission speed is also dizzying for the fans at the scene.

After Arsenal's brief press, they quickly stopped and began to retreat and defend.

Manchester City was obviously prepared. Under their high pressure, although they staggered a bit, they pushed the ball forward very solidly.

Arsenal do not dare to defend too far forward. Once they are beaten behind, they will play very uncomfortable.

For this reason, they took the initiative to retreat and shrink the defense line, further squeezing Manchester City's dangerous shooting areas, and at the same time slowly looking for opportunities to disrupt the opponent's offense.

Arsenal are still very patient.

Lucky is also in the process of defending, constantly moving towards the middle area. On the one hand, he limits Arsenal's advancement on the central axis, and on the other hand, he can also support his teammates.

At the same time, Lucky was also keeping an eye on his own area, and he was observing Sterling's every move.

However, Sterling was too cautious when facing Lucky's defense, so he often lacked bold dribbling. If he could play more decisively, Lucky might have to give up the central axis area and return to the main line. Defend your own area.

But obviously, Sterling did not put enough pressure on Lucky.

And the commentators also saw this problem.

"Sterling's kick was too soft!"

Kompany frowned and was the first to question.

Richard on the side also nodded and said: "When Sterling faces Arsenal, especially Kai, his performance will be greatly reduced, and the same is true in this game."

"After all, it is Sterling's nightmare. In the long-term game, Sterling has some kind of psychological barrier towards Kai, which also prevents him from breaking through Kai's defense."

Andy Gray also nodded and said.

Even Henry said: "As a forward, when he is afraid of the opponent's defensive players, this in itself shows that either the opponent's ability is too strong, or the opponent will do something wrong. And from Kai's technical perspective, Obviously the former!"

Henry said with a smile.

Regarding Lucky's performance at Arsenal, Henry maintains an attitude of absolute appreciation.

Facing Lucky's defense, any forward will have a headache. Even when Henry faced Lucky at his peak, he couldn't find a good way to break through except speed.

Lucky's grasp of defensive timing and steals is too precise. This also leads to the fact that once the speed slows down and a close one-on-one situation is formed, Henry cannot guarantee whether he will lose the ball.

And this is also reflected in Sterling.

The game passed minute by minute, and Manchester City was still attacking, but could not find a chance to score.

This is also extremely uncomfortable for them.

Faced with Arsenal driving near the penalty area, it was difficult for them to break into it.

Jesus runs very hard and often pulls back to create gaps for them, but when their forwards advance forward, Arsenal can quickly make up the defense.

This is very uncomfortable.

Guardiola on the sidelines kept looking at the time, his expression slightly anxious. He knew very well that compared to Arsenal, Manchester City is a team that is more offensive and they need more opportunities. Come and get the shot moment.

But the current situation is that driven by Arsenal, it is difficult for them to get a good shooting opportunity.

After losing these opportunities, as time goes by, the situation will slowly tilt towards Arsenal.

You can't delay too long, you must be the first to score.

Guardiola shouted loudly from the sidelines: "Press up! Go forward more decisively and create more set pieces!"

The Manchester City players heard this and they also knew the coach's intentions, but it was very difficult to implement them.

David Silva kept moving the ball to both sides, but his position was close to the left and he didn't want to go to the right.

But in the current situation, he must shoulder more pressure.

When David Silva came to the right, Lucky was standing not far from him.

Seeing the look in Lucky's eyes, David Silva became a little nervous.

At this time, Eriksen was approaching. Facing the pressing, David Silva passed the ball towards Sterling and then ran forward decisively, trying to catch the ball in the gap.

But what surprised him was that Eriksen advanced instead of retreating. He actually followed up and didn't give them any chance to catch the ball.

The passing line was blocked, Sterling turned around with the ball, and he immediately saw Lucky in front of him.

After subconsciously protecting the ball, Sterling wanted to pass back.

But Lucky was approaching very quickly, and at the same time, other Arsenal teammates also instantly blocked the passing line in this area.

Sterling is isolated!

At this time, he could only use his own ability to pick out the ball.

But the next second, he felt a huge force coming from his shoulders. Under this force, his body began to tilt forward uncontrollably.

The ball protection under his feet is no longer stable.

When he stepped towards the ball, he used too much force on his foot and the ball left his control.

"Oops!"

Sterling sighed secretly.

When he was about to start, he suddenly felt a pulling force behind him, which hindered his speed of starting.

And Lucky secretly grabbed the corner of Sterling's clothes, pulled back to stop the opponent's forward advance, and took control of the ball.

"Kai got the ball!"

Andy Gray exclaimed.

At this time, Lucky dribbled the ball and attacked forward.

And Eriksson filled in for Lucky, and the counterattack was urgent and could not wait for Eriksson to move forward.

The opportunity to attack was also fleeting, so Lucky's forward advance was very determined.

At the same time, seeing Lucky start, the Arsenal players also instantly switched from defense to offense.

Lucky looked up and observed that there were people beside Mane and Giroud, and Saka at the far point was advancing.

Lucky adjusted his pace and made a long pass to transfer the attacking side.

The ball drew an arc diagonally and flew in front of Saka.

The landing point of this ball was just right, Saka easily adjusted his pace, and then unloaded the ball with the arch of his foot.

When unloading the ball, he also cut inside, shook the Manchester City full-back, and then stepped forward again, pulling out half a body position.

This body position was enough to complete Saka's cross.

Saka made a decisive cross.

The ball was hit hard, with a slight deceleration of the spin.

For this reason, when Giroud jumped to the position, there was even a little time to adjust.

Giroud used his broad back to block the Manchester City defender tightly, and at the same time used the arch of his foot to guide the ball towards the goal.

Even Manchester City goalkeeper Moraes could not make any effective saves in the face of such a close-range shot.

The ball was accurately stuffed into the right corner.

In the 28th minute, Arsenal finally got the leading goal with the transition of offense and defense, and with a wonderful steal + attack initiated by Lekai.

This goal came very suddenly. As the defending side, Arsenal actually seized the opportunity to counterattack. In the few shooting opportunities, they were the first to break the goal and scored.

This goal also gave Arsenal the initiative in the game.

When seeing this goal, Arsenal fans cheered fiercely, while Manchester City fans held their heads in disbelief.

They were clearly the attacking side and they had more chances, but Arsenal scored first.

They couldn't accept this reality!

On the Sky Sports commentary desk, the two commentators were excited.

"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal!!!!"

"A wonderful counterattack!! Three consecutive shots broke through Manchester City's goal. Kai's long pass was so wonderful. He not only disrupted Manchester City's defense, but also made Arsenal's attack smoother."

Richard: "Saka's stop was also very interesting. At the moment of unloading the ball, he continued to shake and open his body, then passed the ball, and Giroud easily received the ball and scored! Manchester City didn't expect that they, as the attacking side, would lose the ball first."

Not only the two commentators, but Henry on the side also clapped his hands happily.

The only person with a bad face at the scene was probably Kompany, the former captain of Manchester City.
