Chapter 59, Only Three Minutes Ahead
Chapter 59, only three minutes ahead
Manning behind Su Han was Arsenal's captain, centre-back Koscielny.
Next to Su Han, there's Wilshere, who pinches Su Han from another angle.
As long as Su Han stops the football, he will rush forward and surround Su Han, making him unable to turn around and threaten the goal. As long as he is forced to pass the football back, the defense will be successful. Time will fly by in Liverpool's meaningless back and forth, reaching the end of the first half.
Wilshere kept watching Su Han, trying to see how he would handle the ball.
At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure wearing a black away Liverpool jersey. He flashed past the corner of his field of vision.
Wilshere noticed this, and he couldn't help casting his gaze there.
Because he found that figure was advancing, and the direction of advancing was behind Koscielny!
He saw the figure clearly, Sanchez...
He is 03 inserting into the restricted area!
That's a gap.....
Wilshere suddenly turned his gaze back to Su Han.
He happened to see Su Han lift his right foot, but this action is not like stopping the ball, because the foot is raised a bit high...
Then, scoring almost in the blink of an eye, Su Han raised his right foot and slammed down, and his heel knocked the rolling football back!
He passed the ball!
Or heel pass!
The football just slipped between the legs of an unprepared Koscielny!
Go straight behind the line of defense!
"Su Han! Pass the ball! Beautiful......"
Before Andy Gray could finish his sentence, Sanchez had already received the ball!
So he quickly changed his words, raised his voice and shouted loudly.
"Sanchez! He's unguarded!"
Arsenal's defense put all their attention on Su Han, everyone only wanted to stop Su Han from shooting, and couldn't let Su Han score, but they all ignored that Su Han not only shoots!
You must know that Su Han's position in Liverpool's formation is the attacking midfielder!
Sanchez received the ball from Su Han the moment he stepped into the box, and without any hesitation, he shot!
Boom!
The football sprinted forward against the turf.
Goalkeeper Petr Cech made a save, but because of the sudden pass from Su Han, he did not expect Liverpool to form a goal so quickly. His save was slower and the coverage area was not very large. .
In addition, Sanchez kicked out the most difficult ground ball to save.
Cech's hand was not able to catch the ball...
The football rolled past him and rolled all the way into the Arsenal goal!
Arsenal are only three minutes ahead!
"Gooooal!!!! Sanchez! Sanchez! Sanchez!" Andy Gray yelled. "He equalized for Liverpool! Towards the end of the first half!"
Everyone on Liverpool's bench and coach's bench jumped up, rushed to the sidelines, waved their arms, jumped up vigorously, and shouted.
A quick equalizer after conceding a goal, nothing could have been better!
And next door, on the Arsenal bench, many people held their heads in their hands, their eyes widened, and they stared at the pitch with incredulous eyes.
It was hard for them to believe that their team was equalized after only taking the lead for a few minutes!
In the middle is the fourth official. At the moment when Sanchez shot the goal, he just raised the sign in his hand, which clearly shows the Arabic numeral "2". two minutes!
But it didn't take Liverpool two minutes to level the score!
Wenger stood on the sidelines, listening to the cheers coming from the Liverpool bench next door and the coach's bench, feeling a little bitter in his heart.
His mind was full of guarding against Su Han, guarding against Su Han, but he never thought that it was not Su Han who scored the goal, but Sanchez.
The Arsenal team followed his instructions and defended Su Han strictly.
But who would have thought that in this game, Su Han is not a finisher, but a... assister!
When he was facing a tight defense and couldn't turn around and get rid of it, Su Han resolutely gave up his plan to shoot, but passed the football, and it was such a beautiful heel pass!
Such an assist is really unexpected.
who would have thought
No one can think of it!
He tried his best to let Arsenal hold such a goal lead.
As a result, his precautionary measures only worked for three minutes.
Three minutes later, 350, Liverpool equalized the score.
All of Arsenal's first half effort went to waste...
The lead no longer existed, and the two sides returned to the same starting line before the end of the first half.
But the impact is much more than that.
The impact of this ball on Arsenal's morale is also very obvious.
Arsenal's players must be feeling frustrated in their hearts when they think that the lead they won so hard in the first half will be wiped out.
This kind of emotion is very fatal when facing a strong enemy like Liverpool.
In the duel of masters, most of the time the competition is not about the technical and tactical level, but the psychology and will.
Emotional swings can affect a player's performance.
Not to mention the players, when Wenger himself saw the conceded goal, he felt some fluctuations in his heart.
However, Wenger recovered quickly. He did not let this emotion continue to affect him, but began to calmly consider how to readjust the mental state of his players during the intermission.
This is the hardest part.
Wenger is not a coach who is good at mobilizing players' emotions with some extremely inflammatory language, which is a challenge for him. .
