Chapter 247: Steals + Feeding, a new Premier League single-season assists record!
"aoaoaoooooo—"
Liverpool's frontcourt attack was like mercury pouring down the field, and the home team fans in the auditorium let out hysterical chants to cheer for the crazy attacking players on the field.
Arsenal, who had just narrowed the point difference, had to retreat completely.
First make sure there are no problems with the defense, and then look for opportunities to burn the flames of war into the opponent's half.
Martin is very focused in the game. In addition to his extremely high personal defense rate, while the team remains highly focused, he can also accurately command the defense line to make up for the defensive problems exposed in the defensive system in a blink of an eye.
The madman atmosphere at Anfield has always been at a very high level, and the Liverpool players who organize the offense are becoming more and more dedicated.
Klopp, who was standing in the home team coach's command area, frowned and felt vaguely uneasy.
Continuous attacks do not yield the desired results, and as time goes by, it is very likely to enter a blind state.
Big thunder but little rain is a taboo in football matches!
Especially against a team like Arsenal, which has performed extremely well this season.
The offense scores the most goals in the Premier League, and the defense concedes the fewest goals in the Premier League.
Scoring two goals in the first 10 minutes was obviously an attempt to take advantage of the Arsenal players' laxity.
Now back on track, Martin scored a super long-range shot over 40 meters to inspire us. The next game may develop in a direction that is unfavorable to our team.
If the score can be expanded in a short period of time when Arsenal narrows the gap, the game will definitely be able to get back on track and then use the home court advantage to win the game.
But the game is like this, and God’s calculation is not as good as man’s calculation.
If you really want to score, it's really difficult to score.
After all, Arsenal's defensive system has become impregnable under the command of Martin.
Continuous attacks failed, and the home team players became a little anxious.
Fortunately, the tactical execution was very strong, and he quickly counterattacked on the spot the first moment he lost the ball.
Although he failed to win the ball, he often disrupted Arsenal's rhythm from defense to attack through timely fouls.
As the number of fouls increased, referee Mike Jones had a certain home whistle, which caused dissatisfaction among Arsenal players and their actions became more and more loud.
There are endless scenes of people falling on their backs.
Head referee Mike Jones realized that the situation was not good, and quickly stopped the game when the players on both sides were emotional due to excessive foul actions, and called the captains of the two teams together to give a warning.
The restarted game can be said to be back on track, but Liverpool's offensive momentum is no longer so strong.
Arsenal gradually adapted to Klopp's high position defense during the transition from defense to attack, moving the football to the other side through quick transfers.
A professional football field is so big, and Liverpool only has so many players involved in the offense, so it is difficult to use the same routine to achieve the desired results.
What makes Klopp more reassured is that Arsenal's transition from defense to offense was affected by the frontcourt players' seizing opportunities. The score displayed on the scoreboard did not change, and it was still 2:1 leading the away team.
Time often passes very quickly in high-level competitions, and in a blink of an eye, it’s only three and ten minutes into the first half.
The Liverpool fans at Anfield Stadium were in high spirits, fully releasing their energy and sending out waves of cheers.
The Arsenal fans who traveled with the team did not hesitate to give in. They also shouted hysterically and cheered for their beloved team.
In the 35th minute of the game, Firmino retreated to receive a pass from Henderson, stopped and turned past the tall Mertesacker, and then sent the ball to Coutinho, who was attacking the left rib. feet.
Facing Martin's defense, Coutinho made plans before receiving the ball. He used the outside instep of his right foot to lead the football passed by Firmino to the front right, intending to use his right foot to take a long shot and take out his weapon. Curry's most threatening offensive method.
Cloud Piercing Arrow!
However, Martin seemed to have expected it. At the moment when Coutinho stopped and adjusted, he took a step to the left and stretched out his right foot, just in time to poke the football out.
His poke was very methodical, and the trajectory was to roll towards teammate Ramsey behind Coutinho.
Coutinho felt bad when he saw that Martin's upward direction was the same as his own direction. He couldn't change direction in time, so his conditioned reflex was to fall to the ground and roll over in pain while holding his right foot. Obviously I wanted to use this performance to confuse the referee Mike Jones and see if he could win sympathy.
Mac Jones was in a very good position and had a clear view.
Martin's movements were very clean, but Coutinho covering his feet and rolling in pain was most likely an act.
Even if there is contact, it is due to the inertia after intercepting the ball.
So, Mac Jones half-stood and pointed his right finger at the football, meaning there was no foul.
"wuwuwuwuuuuu——"
Ramsey kept the ball and passed it back to Martin, who stole the ball and moved forward. The audience rang with hysterical boos from the Liverpool fans.
They believed that referee Mike Jones deliberately sought a balance and ignored Martin's foul.
Liverpool coach Klopp was very angry and roared ferociously.
If his assistant Kravitz hadn't stepped forward to stop him in time, he might have been reported to the referee by the fourth official.
Martin met Ramsey's pass, and Emre Can, who was complaining, could only step forward to defend.
Considering Martin's excellent foot skills, he is already ready to foul.
How could Martin, who started out as a defensive player, not know what the opponent was thinking?
About two meters away, he directly used the arch of his right foot to push the football passed by Ramsey to the right front without any sloppiness.
Just get up to speed!
Emre Zhan only felt the figure in front of him flash by. He stretched out his foot obviously a beat slower, and only kicked a ball of air.
Both Milner and Henderson knew that Martin's speed would be troublesome, but they did not go up to grab him like Emre Can, but retreated quickly.
They knew that if they couldn't stop Martin from carrying the ball forward, the defense would be exposed to huge problems.
Martin's vision was wide, and his speed dropped slightly after passing Emre Can. The outside instep of his right foot also greatly reduced the rolling speed of the football. Then he adjusted his step point, facing the attacking right side with his body, supporting his left foot, and moving quickly on the inside of the instep of his right foot. Kicks toward the lower middle of the football.
Henderson realized that it was too late when Martin was about to pass the long ball, so he could only watch helplessly as the football shot up from the center and flew diagonally towards the right rib of his defense.
"This……"
Klopp, who quickly calmed down on the sidelines, felt his heart skip a beat when he saw Martin's long pass heading toward the left rib instead of the right.
Since Martin's body before sending the long pass is facing the attacking right rib, the intuitive feeling is that the long pass is looking for Walcott, who is cutting in at high speed from the right.
In the past, Arsenal's counterattacks from defense to attack often turned to Walcott, so after Emre Can was passed, the defense consciously leaned towards the defensive left, and Martin's body was facing the defensive left.
Including Giroud and Ramsey, the running route is also to the right.
This also led to Liverpool's defensive players becoming more determined.
Unexpectedly, Martin actually made an unexpected move and passed a long reverse pass.
The live director switched the camera with the direction of Martin's long pass, and Sky TV commentator Andy Gray's voice rose an octave: "Alexis Sanchez!"
Sanchez, who passed the center line at high speed, stood out between Klein and right center back Kolo Toure, chased Martin and sent a long pass with a certain amount of advance.
Klein's speed is similar to that of Sanchez, but the latter has a starting advantage. Martin's long pass has a relatively large advance, so there is no need to slow down.
The key is that one is inside and the other is outside. It is difficult for Klein who is outside to catch up with Sanchez. "wuwuwuuuuu——"
Harsh boos instantly swept through the entire Anfield stadium.
Sanchez, whose speed increased to the highest level, caught the ball about 35 meters from the baseline on the left rib of the attack. He stopped and wiped the ball directly forward.
"Single sword!!"
Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai shouted, his voice rising an octave.
Kolo Toure is still struggling to catch up, but the distance between him and Sanchez has not shortened.
Left center back Sakho is limited in what he can do due to his position.
Mignolet, who was standing in front of the door, was panicking and didn't know what to do.
attack?
or wait?
Sanchez dribbled the ball very fast, not much slower than running in the air, so he quickly reached the edge of the penalty area on the left.
In order to ensure stable control of the ball, the speed rarely slows down.
Kolo Toure and Sakho seemed to see hope and quickly chased back.
Mignolet saw from the corner of his eye that the defensive player was closing the distance with Sanchez at high speed, so he decisively abandoned the goal and attacked as late as possible.
Sanchez, who is very experienced in the game, probably guessed something when he saw Mignolet attacking decisively.
He waded the football into the penalty area from the front of the left penalty area, adjusted his footing, and kicked a very high-quality curve ball with the inside of his right foot.
Mignolet's first reaction when he saw the football rising from the ground was to brake suddenly. Then he took two cross steps to the left. His left foot that landed on the ground slightly bent his knee, and he used the weak inertia to jump sideways and extend his arms.
But the arc of the curved ball from the inside of Sanchez's right foot is not only large, but also very high.
So much so that Mignolet's body reached the highest point in the air but failed to touch the football...
The football above the Liverpool penalty area was like a rainbow cutting through the sky, grazing the inside of the top of the right goal post and rushing into the net.
"Goooooooooooal—"
As soon as the football hit the snow-white net, Sky TV commentator Andy Gray subconsciously lengthened his voice.
"Sanchez! He shot into the far corner with his right foot! 2:2 Arsenal tied the score at Anfield!"
Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai spoke impassionedly and suddenly remembered something, and shouted unabated: "Sanchez received Martin's long pass and scored. Martin, who contributed one assist, has an astonishing 21 assists in the Premier League this season! Officially surpassing Henry's single-season assist record in the Premier League set in the 2002-2003 season! Becoming the new single-season assist record holder in the Premier League!"
"Martin intercepted the ball from Philippe Coutinho, worked with Aaron Ramsey in a small area, passed Emre Can smoothly, and sent a long pass like a cruise missile, accurately finding the left rib. Alexis Sanchez, who advanced at high speed, was very calm in the face of Simon Mignolet's shot. He hit a perfect curve ball and went straight into the far corner of the goal. Arsenal tied the score 2:2!"
BBC commentator Lineker said with excitement.
When the camera scanned Martin, an instant assist list appeared in the lower right corner of the broadcast screen.
"21st assist of the season!"
Lineker was refreshed and explained passionately: "A new single-season assist record in the Premier League! The Premier League has just entered the 21st round this season. I really want to know what Martin will do in a single season at the end of this season. What a height the assist record has been raised to!"
Henry, who was the guest commentator, smiled very happily because...Arsenal will have a new leader and superstar.
At the end of Lineker's commentary, he said with excitement: "I think...Martin will definitely set an amazing record that will be difficult to surpass for many years to come! He is the new king of guns!"
Fans watching the live game heard this, and Martin seemed to have a new large number of fans.
Sanchez, who scored the goal, celebrated the goal wildly, and Martin, who sent the assist, was also very excited.
He knows that he has set a new Premier League single-season assist record!
Although this is a matter of time, but... the sooner you break it, it means that the assist record created in the future will only be broken by yourself, and others will always be able to look up to it!
Klopp, who was standing in the home team coach's command area, was very angry. He ran to the fourth official excitedly and said excitedly that there was an obvious foul before Arsenal scored and the goal should not exist.
The Liverpool players on the field also surrounded the referee Mike Jones who blew the whistle to indicate that the goal was valid. They believed that Martin fouled Coutinho and the goal should be cancelled.
Referee Mike Jones patiently explained, but the Liverpool players did not listen and could only maintain the authority of the black judge through verbal warnings.
He doesn't mind showing a yellow card if he continues to defy his authority.
The excited Arsenal players didn't bother to care about the complaining Liverpool players, and they celebrated the goal excitedly.
What makes Sanchez who scored the goal feel a little embarrassed is...
They were celebrating a goal together, so why were they both hugging Martin?
I'm the player who scored the goal, okay?
Until he remembered that Martin, who sent out assists, had already contributed 20 assists in this game, and he scored with the assists...
"Martin! I love you so much!"
So Sanchez also hugged Martin excitedly.
Head coach Arsene Wenger raised his arms and shouted excitedly, not only to vent the equalizer, but also to be ecstatic that Martin surpassed the single-season assist record set by his former disciple Henry.
At this time, the live director restored the entire scoring process, starting with Martin stealing the ball.
According to the frame-by-frame replay in slow motion, fans watching the live broadcast of the game can clearly see that Martin predicted in advance and blocked Coutinho's path to the ball. He moved very quickly and reached out with his right foot to poke the ball. Walk.
Coutinho fell to the ground, completely affected by inertia.
"no problem!"
Sky TV tower commentator Andy Gray shouted: "Martin's defense is as solid as ever, his shots are quick and accurate, his passing is very stylish, his long passes are accurate, Alexis Sanchez's ability to seize opportunities is also good, Assen. With Na scoring two goals, the next game will be even more exciting."
on the field.
Sakho was shown a yellow card by referee Mike Jones for being overly emotional. The other Liverpool players could not help but sigh and disperse.
Head coach Klopp on the sidelines still wanted to make a fuss, but he was dragged away by assistant Kravitz, otherwise he would not have been able to avoid getting a card.
Liverpool fans in the audience thought Mac Jones had blown the whistle and booed harshly.
Coutinho, who had fallen to the ground and rolled in pain, was limping with the help of the team doctor, as if he had been seriously injured.
Many fans watching the live broadcast of the game couldn't help but laugh, and some even expressed their personal opinions: Coutinho's acting skills are so good, he can definitely join the La Masia Film and Television Academy!
There was obviously not much contact, but it ended up feeling like someone had shoveled him into the face...
After the Arsenal players celebrated the goal, Martin applauded again and encouraged his teammates: "Brothers, just play like this and try to overtake the score before the end of the first half!"
"Overtake the score!"
The other players shouted in unison.
This scene was captured by the live broadcast. Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai said: "Martin has only joined Arsenal for more than half a season. Now... he is more like the spiritual leader and on-field captain of this team."
The Arsenal fans who traveled with the team were as excited as children, cheering for joy.
Sanchez's goal equalized the score, and Martin set a new Premier League single-season assist record.
Beautiful!
If we can equalize the score before the end of the first half, that would be... even better.
