Chapter 093: A surprising victory? (3)

After Wolverhampton scored, Wenger on the bench couldn't sit still.

The goal just now was simply a replica of a pure Arsenal-style goal. The speed from passing the ball to the final kick was incredibly fast. This made him a little confused and he began to worry secretly.

Today the opponent used a 4321 formation. Wolverhampton had never used this formation in the first 20 games of this season. This made Wenger very puzzled, but he knew that the game could only be won by scoring goals. He immediately walked to the sidelines, waved his hand, signaling the team to press forward. Only by equalizing the score could other tactics be implemented, otherwise the outcome would most likely be failure!

Arsenal can't afford to lose, but Wolverhampton can. This is the difference in mentality between Wenger and Dave Jones!

Arsenal is now nipping at Manchester United's points, they are a strong contender for the championship, so they can't afford to lose points in the game against the newly promoted team. On the other hand, Wolverhampton doesn't have much to aspire to, they have already secured relegation, and it's a bit unrealistic to compete for the UEFA Cup qualification, so this game is dispensable for Dave Jones, winning is of course the best, losing doesn't matter, so now Wenger is a little panicked!

After receiving the instructions, the Arsenal players immediately changed their formation spontaneously. The two wingers tried their best to move forward, and the backcourt also moved forward. In this situation, the Wolverhampton players felt a wave of pressure coming towards them. Yes, pressure. This is the pressure brought by the all-out attack of a wealthy team!

Arsenal is simply too strong. The combined salary of Vieira, Henry and Campbell is higher than the salary of the entire team. You can imagine the strength of such players! Not to mention that with so many stars gathered together, the result is definitely not as simple as 1 plus 1 equals 2.

Faced with this situation, Dave Jones on the sidelines did not give any instructions. Wolverhampton still maintained the attacking formation. Wang Li, Cameron and Miller did not even return to defense. What they had to fight for was momentum and attack!

At this time, Arsenal almost surrounded Wolverhampton, and the goal guarded by goalkeeper Oaks was also in danger!

In the 15th minute of the game, Fabregas got the ball on the center line. He made a tentative attack, trying to break through Kennedy, so the two started chasing each other on the left side. Fabregas, who was entangled by Kennedy, saw that this attack would end in failure again, but he did not panic. He just knocked the ball back and the ball fell to Pires' feet.

After Pires got the ball, he continued to break forward. Now most of Arsenal's attacking players were in Wolverhampton's half. In form, they had the upper hand, but it was difficult to break through the opponent's defense by short passes alone. He had to rely on breakthroughs to open the opponent's defense line in order to create scoring opportunities.

Seeing Pires get the ball, Kennedy immediately turned around to grab it. Pires did not intend to break through, but directly swung his leg to pass it back to Fabregas. Seeing this, Kennedy immediately responded and stopped, trying to block the ball's rolling path, but Pires was making a fake move! Taking advantage of Kennedy's pause, he dribbled the ball past Kennedy in an instant.

Since Wang Li and his two teammates did not participate in the defense, the number of players on the two teams was not much different in the Wolverhampton half. After Pires passed Kennedy, there was an open space in front of him. After reaching the baseline, before Naylor could come up from the middle to defend, he kicked the ball, and the ball drew an arc in the air and flew towards the center line of the small penalty area!

Unfortunately, when Henry jumped up and headed the ball, it hit the crossbar and went out of the bottom line!

In the 23rd minute of the game, it was Fabregas again. This time he chose to break through the middle. Young player Lescott ran over to compete for the ball. Fabregas made a sudden stop and changed his posture while dribbling the ball quickly, and shook him off. This time, when he broke through to the front of the penalty area, he played a trick. Facing the defense of Naylor and Oklonkovo, he tried to dribble the ball to the left along the penalty area line. Naylor quickly followed, and Oklonkovo ​​could only return to the penalty area to defend Henry. When Fabregas brought the ball to the left corner of the penalty area, he suddenly poked the ball behind Naylor's body, turned around and followed, sticking to Naylor's body, and knocked the ball with the back of his right foot, and the ball was passed to Vieira behind him.

Vieira was unguarded at this time! Taking advantage of this opportunity, he kicked a powerful long shot!

Fortunately, Oaks dived to the right and just blocked the ball. The ball was spinning a little, but as if it didn't have enough power, it didn't go out of the baseline. Kleiman next to him quickly stepped forward and kicked the ball to the front court.

…

Since Wolverhampton scored, Arsenal has been pressing forward and started to bombard Wolverhampton's penalty area. Wang Li, Miller and Cameron in the front field have become the most idle people in the field. Wang Li wanted to go back to the back field to participate in the defense. He looked at the head coach, but Dave Jones on the sidelines glared at him and signaled him to stand in his position. Although he was unwilling, Wang Li still obeyed Dave Jones's command. As a professional player, it is very important to abide by the tactics arranged by the head coach.

Although Arsenal was suppressing Wolverhampton frantically on the field, they seemed to have no chance to score the ball and their finishing was not strong enough, so they always missed the goal. This made Wenger off the field feel regretful and he was also thinking about countermeasures. On the other hand, Dave Jones seemed to be fearless. He kept watching the game with a smile and was indifferent no matter how dangerous Wolverhampton's goal was.

Amid the regretful voices of the fans, Pires' long-range shot was easily caught by Oaks. At this time, Wenger on the sidelines raised his head and finally thought of the reason. Arsenal's attack was too impatient! Yes, too impatient. He was misled by the goal at the beginning. In fact, it was just an ordinary goal, which was completely based on the personal performance of the black-haired boy. Even Miller's shot at the end was a bit of luck, which had almost nothing to do with tactics!

Arsenal can be said to be full of stars, and the team's style of play is offensive football. If it is a purely offensive game, there is no reason why they cannot beat Wolverhampton. However, because he let the team press forward in a big way, the Arsenal players felt pressure to score a goal, and this was Highbury Stadium, so they were too eager to equalize the score, which backfired!

Thinking of this, he immediately stood up and wanted to walk to the sidelines to instruct the players to stabilize their attack. At this time, a fierce cheering sound came from the east stand of the stadium. He stood up and looked, and in an instant, he froze!

At this time, Arsenal no longer had the final say on the situation. The ball kicked by Oaks flew straight to the frontcourt. During the scramble, Wang Li grabbed the ball with his back against Cole!

In the 34th minute of the game, Wang Li touched the ball for the third time in the whole game. At this time, he was at the edge of Arsenal's penalty area, which was already within the range of his long-range shot!

In the east stand, all the fans, including the little princess Angela, were staring at the black-haired boy with the ball on the field. They were expecting a powerful long shot or even a world wave, and they were expecting Wolverhampton to rewrite the score again!
