Chapter 407 There are 30 minutes left before the title of the champion?
In the 33rd minute, Manchester United once again resorted to the method of setting the ball. Maguire, who returned to the starting lineup today, was very excited. The ball was headed hard towards the goal, but this time it was blocked by Ramsdale before Gabriel cleared it before Benzema fired in.
Maguire didn't just play this ball for Ten Hag. He wanted to prove to him that he would still be an excellent choice for the central defender position. He also told the England national team coach Southgate who was watching the game in the stands. , I have enough strength and state to participate in the European Cup that will start in 3 months.
Of course Southgate saw it. He led the team to participate in two World Cups, one semi-final, one quarter-final, and a European Cup runner-up. This European Cup, with Bellingham, Saka, Lai The weapons of the younger generation such as Stanley, and Grealish and Rashford have entered the golden age, and England is quite a favorite.
Not only on the offensive end, Maguire's performance on the defensive end is also good today, which is not only related to his state, but also has something to do with Arsenal's layout.
Arteta used Haverts as a false center, so that there was no high center in the penalty area most of the time. Saka and Sanzaki Kaoru blasted from the two wings, with full backs and midfielders as the first gate, which made Maguire's Defensive pressure is much less.
Many commentators have seen this, and Henry said that Arsenal can be equalized so quickly, and the loss is due to Benzema.
Although he is 36 years old, the French legend used his running position and support in the middle to contain Arsenal's too much defensive pressure, making it impossible for the central defender to make up for the first time when the midfielder was passed by Chen Xiaoliang.
Henry's words were like a prophecy. In the 42nd minute, Kwa suddenly cut inside when advancing from the left, and then passed the ball to Benzema who retreated to the top of the arc.
Seeing that he had no chance to catch the ball and turned to face the goal, Benzema knocked the ball back to Chen Xiaoliang on the left rib.
Chen Xiaoliang took the ball to the right, Rice and Odegaard ran from the left and right in an attempt to double-team, Chen Xiaoliang pushed the ball forward, kicked it back to Benzema, and then ran to the right immediately, and ran with the rushing Rice Turning in the opposite direction, Rice slowed down and turned around, but was already thrown away by Chen Xiaoliang.
Leaning on Saliba behind him, Benzema deftly returned the ball and pushed the ball right in front of Chen Xiaoliang.
Chen Xiaoliang seemed to draw a circle around Benzema, and rushed towards the penalty area with the ball. Zinchenko and Amadou Onana rushed over. Chen Xiaoliang kicked the ball to the left and kicked it to Benzema again. .
Benzema turned around to catch the ball as if standing still, and played a two-for-two with Chen Xiaoliang, pushing the ball to the right side of the penalty area, still in front of Chen Xiaoliang's forward line.
The fans of both sides in the stands were almost wet with excitement. The temperature in London in March was only 3-3 degrees Celsius, but the fierceness and tension of this game made them stand, jump, shout and sigh for a while. It's like being in the dog days.
At this time, the wonderful cooperation between Chen Xiaoliang and Benzema aroused the emotions of the fans of the two teams.
One party yelled: "Yes, yes!"
The other party exclaimed: "It's over, it's over!"
Saliba wanted to intercept Benzema's pass to Chen Xiaoliang, but Chen Xiaoliang got there first, moved the ball forward, and caught up with the ball near the baseline.
Before the feet of Saliba, who fell to the ground and stretched his legs to intercept him, he swept the ball and kicked the ball to Kwa at the back post.
The inserted Kwa was on the left side of the small penalty area, far away from the goal, and the angle of receiving the ball was too small to shoot. He kicked back with his left foot, and the inverted triangle was passed to Benzema who turned and inserted. Zema pushed with his right foot and the ball flew to the right goal!
Saliba, who fell to the ground just now, struggled to get up, almost blocking the shot with his face, and then Ramsdale, who was sideways, had quick eyes and quick hands, and pressed the ball to the ground and hugged him tightly.
"oops!"
Manchester United fans and Manchester United players sighed at the same time, such an exquisite cooperation, it is a pity that the last blow failed to score.
Xiao Wang: "I see some fans commented 'It's all Benzema's fault', haha, brothers, it seems that this stalk can't be passed."
"Just now Ramsdale rushed to the left goal to prevent Kevara from shooting. Therefore, Benzema's choice to shoot to the right is a very reasonable choice. It can only be said that he was a bit unlucky."
The game after the first half basically became Manchester United's one-way attack. From 2-0 to 2-2, the mentality of the Arsenal players collapsed. The offensive conduction was eager for success and frizzy. Lost, either the pass is big, or the route choice is unreasonable, and it was cut off by Manchester United players.
But after Benzema missed the excellent opportunity just now, facing Arsenal who retreated across the board, Manchester United failed to use the remaining ten minutes to score another goal and reverse the lead.
At halftime, in the locker room, the coaches of both sides are doing the same thing, which is to point out the focus of the second half to the players, but the direction and form are completely different.
On Arsenal's side, which lost a good game, Arteta didn't talk much about tactics.
He himself used to be a member of Arsenal, and he even wore the captain's armband under the legendary head coach Arsene Wenger. He knew that in the situation before him, talking more about tactical arrangements with the players was equivalent to chickens. If the duck talks, the players won't even bother to listen.
He chose to stimulate the players, uncover the biggest scars, and stab the deepest pain.
That was the league title that was lost by Manchester City after leading almost the entire time last season.
Leading by 2 goals tonight, the perfect start was equalized, at this moment, just like that moment.
He told the players that in the sixth season since Wenger left the team, the team has only won one FA Cup and one Community Shield, while tonight's opponent Manchester United, in the 6 seasons since Ferguson retired, He also won two League Cups, one FA Cup, two Community Shields and one Europa League.
However, because of Arsenal's lead last season, the outside world felt that it seemed to be very close to success, but Manchester United was always described as a loser.
He questioned the players, if they were reversed by Manchester City last season, they can make an excuse that the team is young and inexperienced, so what is the excuse for losing today?
He even roared, looking at those players who didn't return to the defense in time and were still pressing forward desperately, why do they think that if they lead by two goals, they will surely win the third and fourth goals?
He even said very ugly words: "Last season lost to Manchester City, if we lose to Manchester United again today, then we will never be able to tear off the LOSER label on us! When people discuss Arsenal in the future, they will still be the one who only knows how to fight. Si's pseudo-rich family!"
Arteta used the aggressive method, but Ten Hag used the incentive method.
He loudly praised the players' reversal performance, and made the final mobilization for several players who were scheduled to play in the second half, telling them that they were scheduled to play at this time, not because they were not as capable as the starters, but like a relay. The 3rd and 4th runs are the same, they are the sprinters and finishers who maintain the advantage to the end and win the victory.
The rest is for Sesko's personal guidance.
The Slovenian center has almost warmed up. Ten Hag plans to replace him in the 55th minute. This is not only for him to save his energy, but also for him to take a good look at the actual battle from the sidelines. How Benzema connects the frontcourt, how to run without the ball, how to support and make the ball for his teammates.
This cannot be seen in the low-intensity confrontation of training, and can only be felt most intuitively through the scene of this important final.
Manchester United has long set a rule not to buy players over the age of 28, but for a very small number of high-level players, the club is willing to make an exception, such as Casemiro, Ronaldo, and of course Benzema.
But offering a big contract to invite the 36-year-old veteran is not only to let him help the team play a role at critical moments with his still good competitive level, but also to provide his rich experience to young players.
Cesko, who is also a center, is naturally the object of study.
He nodded to Ten Hag, saying that he was ready, and that as much energy as he had would be used in the game.
In the second half, the two sides returned to the court and changed sides to fight again.
After the whistle sounded, the mental outlook displayed by both sides was obviously different from that in the first half.
Arsenal, who were ashamed and courageous, were stimulated by Arteta and became patient.
They also understand that they were able to be reversed by Manchester City last season. More problems actually came from themselves. The suspense is lost, and the mentality collapses after the point difference is approached.
The same is true for tonight's game, but fortunately, Arteta made them realize that tonight's situation gave them a chance to make up for their regrets. Although last season's Premier League trophy was destined to be missed, if they can lead again tonight and finally Holding the cup can also get rid of the demons in your heart, comfort yourself and comfort the fans.
The same is true for Manchester United, because they underestimated the enemy, and because of the one-sided public opinion before the game, they felt that Arsenal were nothing to fear. As a result, they were beaten 5-2 in less than 0 minutes, which woke up all players who had the idea of underestimating the enemy.
After finally equalizing the score, they will not give their opponents another chance.
This is a one-game cup game with no room for squandering.
Ever since, under the influence of the two mentalities, the red and white fronts in the second half were like guerrilla warfare, where the enemy advances and retreats, and the enemy retreats and pursues.
In the 48th minute, Saka held the ball from the right. In addition to Haverts and Kaoru Sanji in the frontcourt, midfielders Rice and Odegaard also came up to respond, but the difference from the first half was that the five defenders in the backcourt, Only two full-backs, Zinchenko and Fuan Jianyang, pressed forward appropriately, but they did not cross the midfield line. The rest of the players stayed behind and never rushed forward.
On Manchester United's side, except for Benzema, the rest of the players retreated to their own half across the board, settling at the back and pressing forward.
So the two sides started a trial between pressing and passing. After Saka passed several times with his teammates and held the ball firmly, Manchester United's overall formation was also fully recovered. Arsenal's midfielder Amadou Onana and The two full-backs just started to cross the halfway line.
In the end, Kaoru Sanzao received the ball from the left and wanted to make a diagonal pass with Haverts and pass the ball directly behind him to the small penalty area, but was intercepted by Lima and cleared.
The defensive Chen Xiaoliang got the ball by Erdegaard's side, and Erdegaard came up to harass him immediately, but Rice, who would have rushed to Chen Xiaoliang without thinking about his own life, did not miss it this time, and ran directly to his own half.
The same goes for the rest of the midfielders. Without turning their heads, the first thing they do is to run back and fall behind. Only Saka, Kaoru Misaki and Havertz retreated while trying to press or intercept Manchester United's passing route, trying to prevent the opponent from playing fast. Anti-reverse.
Manchester United saw that Arsenal retreated quickly, and Kwa and Rashford were not in a hurry to move forward. They began to run to support Chen Xiaoliang, and received the ball to participate in the pass.
By the time Manchester United has the ball in control and the formation is in place, Arsenal's players are already in place.
In the end, it was also Kewa who dribbled the ball forward and crossed it to Chen Xiaoliang who inserted in the middle. Chen Xiaoliang went straight to the penalty area when the shooting space in front was blocked by Rice. Chenko scooped the ball out of the baseline first.
If it is said that the two sides played a "grab" in the first half, then in the second half it was a "steady" tactic.
It feels like whoever loses the ball first is the grandson.
In this state where the whole team resolutely implements tactics and is highly concentrated on defense, it is difficult for general offensive tactics to be effective.
What kind of diagonal pass, what kind of split pass, what combination of side and center, everyone knows these routines, set up a defensive formation, if they can be broken casually, then they are not eligible to compete for the championship trophy.
At this time, the only thing that can affect the balance of the game is the super moment of the star.
Sanji Kaoru on the left has no advantage against Wan Bi Saka, and whether it is Erdegaux or Rice in the middle, if they want to attack, they have to pass Chen Xiaoliang first, and Saka on the right becomes the second half. Arsenal's trump card.
As for Manchester United, it was naturally Chen Xiaoliang.
In the 57th minute, Saka received the ball from his left rib and passed it to Havertz at the top of the penalty area.
Then in the 60th minute, Chen Xiaoliang blasted Zinchenko from the right, even squeezing and speeding, it was completely unreasonable to eat raw, wiped into the bottom line, crossed the goal before Rice and Gabriel who defended were in place, and played Not long after Cesko outflanked the front point, Saliba stretched out his foot to block it. The ball hit the outside of the post and popped out of the baseline.
In the 63rd minute, Saka also made a strong attack from the right. Luke Thomas obviously began to struggle a little after fighting the opponent for most of the half.
Casemiro came over to defend, Saka passed back to Fu Anjianyang who was keeping up, Fu Anjianyang then crossed to Haverts who retreated to respond, Haverts then pushed to Odegaard who was following up, Odegao faced Blocking Milinkovic, he shot directly 28 meters away from the goal. Livakovic jumped up and dragged the ball out of the crossbar.
Then Arsenal's corner kick was ejected by Maguire, and Manchester United launched a counterattack, but unlike the first half, Arsenal had 5 players staying behind to defend. Manchester United's counterattack did not form an equal balance of power. Chen Xiaoliang advanced the ball to the frontcourt Encountering a three-person double-team, he was forced to assign it to Kwa on the left. After receiving the ball, Kwa failed to get rid of Fuan Jianyang first, and was defended by the Japanese international. Then it came out that Arsenal had already defended with 7 people, and it was impossible to talk about counterattacks.
In the end, Chen Xiaoliang forcibly took a shot from the right side of the penalty area, and the ball bounced off Saliba, but it also returned in vain.
On the sidelines, the head coaches of the two sides are preparing to make substitutions. Arsenal's Ben White, Martinelli, and Nketiah are preparing to play, and Manchester United's Timber and B Fee are preparing to take over.
However, at the moment of the substitution, the score was changed.
After Chen Xiaoliang's shot was bounced back, Arsenal launched a counterattack. Odegaard made a long-distance diagonal pass and passed it directly to Sanji Kaoru who had already run back to the Manchester United half from the left. The latter ran along the left rib for a while. He rushed directly to the top of the arc, attracting the blocks of Milinkovic and Casemiro.
Just before approaching the top of the arc, Kaoru Misaki distributed the ball to Saka on the right rib. Luke Thomas bent over with his hands behind his back, waiting for Saka to dribble over with the ball. Unexpectedly, the latter took a step to the left , Take a long shot with your left foot!
The ball has almost no arc, no spin, and flies straight to the top left corner of the goal.
The sudden arrival prevented Luke Thomas from making a blocking action, and it also prevented Livakovic from adjusting the goal line position.
Although Livakovic has tried his best to fly to his right to save, there is still half a meter away. The ball almost hits the 10-point corner, rushing in from the angle between the post and the crossbar. goal.
"Yeah ah ah ah ah!"
The Arsenal fans are crazy, half of Wembley's stadium seems to be collapsing, the ground shakes, the thunder explodes, it feels like their team is almost finished, and they can't even hold a 2-goal lead. Most of the second half To be taken away by Manchester United, but suddenly leading again, the excitement of turning from sadness to joy and regaining hope.
Arteta threw his fists to celebrate, but after a few celebrations, he immediately woke up and asked assistant coach Stuyvenberg to continue the substitution arrangement. Martinelli replaced Kaoru Misaki, Enketia replaced Haverts, Ben ·White replaced Fuan Jianyang, called the players, and warned them loudly not to repeat the old habit of forgetting how much he was after scoring a goal in the first half.
There is no way for Ten Hag here. The change of reality makes him have to adjust his substitution strategy.
It was supposed to go up to stabilize the situation and wait for an opportunity to kill, but now it has become necessary to score two goals in a row to win the game in the remaining time. Milinkovic was replaced, and Timber, who is versatile and versatile, played as a midfielder. Replace Luke Thomas's left-back position, Luke Shaw will play, add a cross point from the left, and Rashford will move to the left, Kwa, who is in general form tonight, will leave, and B Fee will be replaced The right winger is actually the task of playing the ball for Chen Xiaoliang's frontcourt free man.
Arsenal's celebrations and substitutions are over, and Manchester United is ready to kick off.
Chen Xiaoliang looked up at the time on the big screen, 65 minutes and 44 seconds.
The second half played for 20 minutes, with mutual offense and defense, but a shining moment from Saka changed the score.
This way of playing, maybe another 20 minutes, there is no guarantee that the team will be able to score.
After all, Arsenal at this moment is seeking stability and a very pragmatic attitude. Once their own side presses heavily in order to equalize the score, they may be knocked out by a counterattack before they can knock on the opponent's door.
He has used all available methods on the conventional level, but he knows that he still has some unconventional methods.
So, he clenched his right hand and raised it high, then lowered down and patted the top of his head lightly.
This is the tactical code within the team.
It means-then do everything possible to pass the ball to me.
He is ready to use his ability to end the game.

In the 33rd minute, Manchester United once again resorted to the method of setting the ball. Maguire, who returned to the starting lineup today, was very excited. The ball was headed hard towards the goal, but this time it was blocked by Ramsdale before Gabriel cleared it before Benzema fired in.
Maguire didn't just play this ball for Ten Hag. He wanted to prove to him that he would still be an excellent choice for the central defender position. He also told the England national team coach Southgate who was watching the game in the stands. , I have enough strength and state to participate in the European Cup that will start in 3 months.
Of course Southgate saw it. He led the team to participate in two World Cups, one semi-final, one quarter-final, and a European Cup runner-up. This European Cup, with Bellingham, Saka, Lai The weapons of the younger generation such as Stanley, and Grealish and Rashford have entered the golden age, and England is quite a favorite.
Not only on the offensive end, Maguire's performance on the defensive end is also good today, which is not only related to his state, but also has something to do with Arsenal's layout.

That was the league title that was lost by Manchester City after leading almost the entire time last season.
Leading by 2 goals tonight, the perfect start was equalized, at this moment, just like that moment.
He told the players that in the sixth season since Wenger left the team, the team has only won one FA Cup and one Community Shield, while tonight's opponent Manchester United, in the 6 seasons since Ferguson retired, He also won two League Cups, one FA Cup, two Community Shields and one Europa League.

The ball hit the outside of the post and popped out of the baseline.
In the 63rd minute, Saka also made a strong attack from the right. Luke Thomas obviously began to struggle a little after fighting the opponent for most of the half.
Casemiro came over to defend, Saka passed back to Fu Anjianyang who was keeping up, Fu Anjianyang then crossed to Haverts who retreated to respond, Haverts then pushed to Odegaard who was following up, Odegao faced Blocking Milinkovic, he shot directly 28 meters away from the goal. Livakovic jumped up and dragged the ball out of the crossbar.
Then Arsenal's corner kick was ejected by Maguire, and Manchester United launched a counterattack, but unlike the first half, Arsenal had 5 players staying behind to defend. Manchester United's counterattack did not form an equal balance of power. Chen Xiaoliang advanced the ball to the frontcourt Encountering a three-person double-team, he was forced to assign it to Kwa on the left. After receiving the ball, Kwa failed to get rid of Fuan Jianyang first, and was defended by the Japanese international. Then it came out that Arsenal had already defended with 7 people, and it was impossible to talk about counterattacks.
In the end, Chen Xiaoliang forcibly took a shot from the right side of the penalty area, and the ball bounced off Saliba, but it also returned in vain.
On the sidelines, the head coaches of the two sides are preparing to make substitutions. Arsenal's Ben White, Martinelli, and Nketiah are preparing to play, and Manchester United's Timber and B Fee are preparing to take over.
However, at the moment of the substitution, the score was changed.
After Chen Xiaoliang's shot was bounced back, Arsenal launched a counterattack. Odegaard made a long-distance diagonal pass and passed it directly to Sanji Kaoru who had already run back to the Manchester United half from the left. The latter ran along the left rib for a while. He rushed directly to the top of the arc, attracting the blocks of Milinkovic and Casemiro.
Just before approaching the top of the arc, Kaoru Misaki distributed the ball to Saka on the right rib. Luke Thomas bent over with his hands behind his back, waiting for Saka to dribble over with the ball. Unexpectedly, the latter took a step to the left , Take a long shot with your left foot!
The ball has almost no arc, no spin, and flies straight to the top left corner of the goal.
The sudden arrival prevented Luke Thomas from making a blocking action, and it also prevented Livakovic from adjusting the goal line position.
Although Livakovic has tried his best to fly to his right to save, there is still half a meter away. The ball almost hits the 10-point corner, rushing in from the angle between the post and the crossbar. goal.
"Yeah ah ah ah ah!"
The Arsenal fans are crazy, half of Wembley's stadium seems to be collapsing, the ground shakes, the thunder explodes, it feels like their team is almost finished, and they can't even hold a 2-goal lead. Most of the second half To be taken away by Manchester United, but suddenly leading again, the excitement of turning from sadness to joy and regaining hope.
Arteta threw his fists to celebrate, but after a few celebrations, he immediately woke up and asked assistant coach Stuyvenberg to continue the substitution arrangement. Martinelli replaced Kaoru Misaki, Enketia replaced Haverts, Ben ·White replaced Fuan Jianyang, called the players, and warned them loudly not to repeat the old habit of forgetting how much he was after scoring a goal in the first half.
There is no way for Ten Hag here. The change of reality makes him have to adjust his substitution strategy.
It was supposed to go up to stabilize the situation and wait for an opportunity to kill, but now it has become necessary to score two goals in a row to win the game in the remaining time. Milinkovic was replaced, and Timber, who is versatile and versatile, played as a midfielder. Replace Luke Thomas's left-back position, Luke Shaw will play, add a cross point from the left, and Rashford will move to the left, Kwa, who is in general form tonight, will leave, and B Fee will be replaced The right winger is actually the task of playing the ball for Chen Xiaoliang's frontcourt free man.
Arsenal's celebrations and substitutions are over, and Manchester United is ready to kick off.
Chen Xiaoliang looked up at the time on the big screen, 65 minutes and 44 seconds.
The second half played for 20 minutes, with mutual offense and defense, but a shining moment from Saka changed the score.
This way of playing, maybe another 20 minutes, there is no guarantee that the team will be able to score.
After all, Arsenal at this moment is seeking stability and a very pragmatic attitude. Once their own side presses heavily in order to equalize the score, they may be knocked out by a counterattack before they can knock on the opponent's door.
He has used all available methods on the conventional level, but he knows that he still has some unconventional methods.
So, he clenched his right hand and raised it high, then lowered down and patted the top of his head lightly.
This is the tactical code within the team.
It means-then do everything possible to pass the ball to me.
He is ready to use his ability to end the game.
