Brighton's starting striker, Brown, is not actually a Brighton player; he is a product of Chelsea's youth academy and has been in good form, spending several seasons on loan.
As Brighton's main striker this season, he is well aware that if he wants to escape a loan spell, he must perform well in every game. Brown knows that Arsenal is one of his opportunities to become the focus and get more media attention.
Despite finishing only 6th in the league last season, Arsenal remain one of the most prominent clubs in the Premier League.
So, in preparation for this match, Brown even practiced extra a few days before the game, hoping to have a good performance at the Chiefs Stadium.
However, after 90 minutes of the game, he was even driven to despair.
Arsenal has faced them before, but none of those matches felt this difficult.
Especially in the final stage of their defense, the goalkeeper was able to guess their intentions several times and even helped his teammates anticipate and block them, which was very frustrating!
He admitted that although he was not a top-notch marksman, his intentions were not that obvious in his body language either. How could his opponent guess his intentions so accurately every time?
To the point that by the end of the game, he had the urge to throw the ball down and leave.
Brown's poor performance resulted in Brighton's offensive statistics being quite poor throughout the match. Brighton only managed 10 effective shots, most of which came from long-range attempts.
On the other hand, Arsenal's performance in this match was quite impressive. With a solid defense, Arsenal's attack also played to an ideal level. In this match, Sanchez continued his hot attacking form, contributing a goal and an assist, and he was named the best player of the match.
After several seasons under Wenger's careful guidance at Arsenal, Sanchez has undoubtedly become one of the superstars in football today who comes closest to Romelu!
His amazing fighting spirit and unparalleled technical and tactical skills once made him the dream of countless teams, who longed to recruit him.
Whether he's speeding past opponents on the wing or dominating the center forward position, his passing and shooting skills are always his most dazzling strengths!
Despite his relatively short stature of only 1.69 meters, his achievements in heading in football are surprisingly comparable to those of much taller players.
In almost every season's post-season statistics, he consistently scores at least ten goals thanks to his outstanding heading ability.
This achievement undoubtedly makes people look at him in a new light!
It's important to understand that in modern football, height is often considered a significant advantage, and it's truly remarkable that he, with his relatively short stature, managed to stand out among taller opponents.
He proved with his actions that height is not the only factor determining heading ability; technique, strength, and judgment are equally important.
Such a performance not only drove fans wild but also shocked the entire football world.
In the end, the match came to a close, with Arsenal defeating Brighton 2-0 thanks to a stellar performance from Alexis Sanchez.
During the match, Sanchez first delivered a brilliant pass, assisting teammate Iwobi to score, and then scored a wonderful goal himself, demonstrating his outstanding individual ability and teamwork spirit.
It's worth mentioning that this goal was his signature move, specifically designed to counter goalkeepers who position themselves too far forward.
Such a goal was undoubtedly spectacular, and at that moment, the entire stadium showered the opposing team with applause. Sanchez seemed to revel in the cheers of the fans.
With a stable defense, he played really comfortably in this match. In the past, he always felt that it made little difference whether Lei Ming or Cech played, but after this match, he finally understood what Lacazette often said: "It's lucky to be on the same team as Lei Ming."
At the time, he had no idea of the significance of those words and thought the other person was just joking with him. But now it seems that he was the one who was ridiculous. How come he hadn't seen such a goalkeeper who could significantly improve the defense before?
After the match, the fans were moved by Arsenal's brilliant performance and gave the players their loudest cheers.
These enthusiastic fans became a beautiful sight on the field, cheering for their team in their own way and filling the entire stadium with passion and energy.
Who would have thought that this group of passionate and energetic fans would frequently call for manager Arsène Wenger to be sacked last season?
On the sidelines, after the match, Wenger walked over to each of his players to celebrate and offer encouragement.
Compared to the result of this match, he values Lei Ming's performance after joining the team more.
To be honest, even he didn't expect that the kid's fighting spirit after returning to the team seemed even stronger than before. Just looking at the kid's frequent shouts on the field, he was overjoyed.
It seems that because of this accident, Lei has become less humble and more aggressive, and it is precisely this temperament that has transformed the team's originally dilapidated defense.
He was delighted that he had once again made the right bet. Given enough time, Ray should be able to grow to the level he expected. Although Ray was Asian, he was still very optimistic about the player because he saw many factors in him that could lead to superstardom.
What Wenger didn't know was that Lei Ming's active involvement in directing the defense in this match was precisely to demonstrate his greater value.
During the few games he was suspended for, Lei Ming realized that if he wanted to have more say in the locker room, then his performance was naturally very important. As professional players, everything they do must be based on football. This is why he played so hard in this game, because he didn't want to see that benchwarmer come back to the game again.
