Chapter 434 Completely defeat Arsenal!

"How is it? Is it okay?"

Ye Qiu took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to ask left winger Ribery.

The Frenchman nodded to Ye Qiu, "Don't worry, I can still hold on!"

Ye Qiu didn't say anything more, patted Ribery on the back, and signaled him to return to the court. At this time, Tottenham Hotspur made two substitutions, which obviously surprised everyone.

If it is not surprising to replace the active Cavani with Leo Messi, let Van Persie return to the front center, Messi to play on the right, and form the front trident of Tottenham Hotspur, then replacing Mascherano with Modric is a very risky substitution.

After replacing Mascherano, Tottenham Hotspur's midfielder became Beckham, and the two front players were Modric and Fabregas. All three players are offensive, and the only defensive midfielder Mascherano was taken down by Ye Qiu. This has to be said to be a very unexpected substitution.

"If it was Yaya Toure who was substituted, it would be explainable, but now Modric is substituted. Is this to strengthen the team's ball control? Or is it to launch a massive counterattack against Arsenal?" Andy Gray was also a little puzzled.

Ye Qiu stood on the sidelines. He noticed that Wenger also looked at him and laughed, "He should be hesitating now, right?"

Wenger's substitutions are actually quite mechanical. For example, he likes to make substitutions between 60 and 65 minutes. This may be a habit of his, or even a kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Of course, it must be said that if everything goes smoothly, most teams will adopt the strategy of substitutions during this period, because there is still about half an hour before the end of the game, and it can also give the substitute players better room to play, so this substitution time period is actually not a big problem.

But Ye Qiu deliberately made substitutions around 55 minutes, and substituted two at a time, which clearly showed that he wanted to play with the time difference.

Sure enough, after Ye Qiu made this substitution, Wenger began to wait and see again, because the opponent had just made a substitution, and he had to observe the situation and see the situation clearly before making a substitution, right? Especially considering that one of Ye Qiu's substitutions was beyond his expectations, he had to see clearly, otherwise, a hasty substitution might backfire.

It should be said that this is the fixed thinking of most people. After all, there are only three substitutions, and the difference between football and basketball is that substitutions may not work immediately, so the head coach does not need to change with the opponent's changes.

But what Wenger did not expect was that just after the substitution, Tottenham Hotspur gave up the previous destructive style of play and adopted a more offensive pressing style of play, directly pressing the defense line forward and forcing Arsenal to launch a round of offensive.

Less than two minutes after coming on the court, Messi retreated on the right to respond, and Fabregas made a precise through ball to Messi on the right. At this time, Messi was next to Hleb who was returning to defense, and in front of him was left back Clichy.

This was also Wenger's adjustment. Clichy already had a yellow card, and Ye Qiu replaced Messi, obviously to strengthen the team's attack on the right, so Wenger asked Hleb to retreat and help Clichy share the pressure.

Messi took the ball and dribbled forward, Hleb followed on the side, the Argentine made a fake move to cut inside, tricking Hleb to follow, but the Argentine did not make any move and continued to dribble forward.

Seeing the distance between himself and Clichy getting closer and closer, and being deceived by Messi just now, Hleb was a little angry in his heart, and immediately chose to get close, and after Hleb got close, Messi gently dribbled the ball to his right, and quickly pulled to the right, leaving a distance from Hleb, but immediately accelerated to catch up.

Messi's acceleration kept the ball within his control, and also put him in front of Clichy. Just when the French left-back thought he would continue to go down the bottom, Messi suddenly stopped and dunked the ball to his left, and the whole person changed from the original quick sprint to a sudden change of direction and cut inside.

Relying on his small size, flexible body, and convenient change of center of gravity, Messi got stuck between Hleb and Clichy first, and cut inside with the ball horizontally along the line at the front of the penalty area. At this time, neither Hleb nor Clichy dared to foul Messi, especially Clichy.

Messi's dribbling speed was very fast, but Flamini's interception was also very fast. Seeing that a triangle was about to be formed, Messi suddenly shot a curved ball with his left foot and went straight to the upper left corner of the goal.

This is the advantage of a winger cutting inside with his reverse foot. The defensive player can't defend your shot at all, unless his figure stands further forward than you, but if he stands further forward than you, you can stop suddenly, shake him off directly, and enter the penalty area.

Messi's arc shot was of very high quality, but it was a sudden shot from outside the penalty area. It had an arc and an angle, but Almunia quickly flew to save the ball because of its weak power and slow speed.

Although the ball did not go in, Messi's sudden shot after continuous passing on the right and a series of beautiful performances still won the cheers and praise of the fans of the entire White Hart Lane Stadium. The drums were deafening, and everyone was shouting Messi's name.

"The quality of this shot is very high, and it came very suddenly!" Andy Gray also exclaimed, "We can see that Messi has a strong desire to play after he came on the court. Because of his participation in the America's Cup, his performance this season is not very good, and his position has also been challenged, especially by Arshavin."

"But now we should see that Ye Qiu still trusts Messi at such a critical moment. It depends on whether Messi can open up the situation for Tottenham Hotspur after he comes on the court!"

When Messi was walking back panting, Van Persie behind him caught up. The two seemed to be talking about something, and Messi nodded to Van Persie.

Because it was Almunia who blocked the ball, it was a corner kick for Tottenham Hotspur, but Beckham's corner kick did not create a threat. Adebayor headed the ball to clear the ball. After Tottenham Hotspur's midfielder got the ball, he quickly passed it back to the central defender and prepared to reorganize. He was not impatient at all.

As Tottenham Hotspur passed the ball back, Arsenal's overall formation began to press forward again, obviously continuing to adopt a front-court pressing tactic against Tottenham Hotspur, using this pressing tactic to relieve the pressure on the back line.

There is a saying in the football field that offense is the best defense!

This is not necessarily true, it depends on the situation, but offense must be the most effective way to relieve defensive pressure.

Therefore, when Tottenham Hotspur attacked, the pressure on the back line was reduced a lot. Thiago Silva, Hangeland and Beckham took the ball in the back. When Arsenal pressed forward to press, they immediately passed the ball to Vargas on the left, who dribbled forward and poked Modric who had the ball with his back.

Modric turned his back to Arteta, and after getting the ball, he turned skillfully to get rid of Arteta's defense. At this time, Van Persie suddenly ran back from the front court to the midfield to respond. If the game was suspended at this time, everyone could see that Arteta, Fabregas and Van Persie were in a triangle position. Modric had two choices, and this did not require vision at all. After turning around, he saw two teammates in white.

Undoubtedly, Modric chose to give it to Van Persie.

But Van Persie seemed to feel that there was no chance behind him, so he knocked it back to Fabregas, turned around and ran forward diagonally to the right, taking away a defensive player, leaving a gap in the middle.

Fabregas immediately passed the ball to the right and handed it to Alves, while Messi quickly went to the middle.

Alves dribbled the ball forward and back, and immediately passed it to the middle. Messi stopped the ball and moved forward, and quickly shook off Flamini who was defending him. Van Persie stood in position and headed the ball back to Messi who was coming in from behind before Gallas. Messi stopped the ball with his chest, waited for the ball to land, and was about to shoot just as he stepped into the penalty area.

This action scared Kolo Toure who quickly stepped forward to block it, but who could have thought that Messi's shot did not come out. The Argentine gently sent the ball to the middle with his left foot, and saw Ribery rushing to the middle from the left at some point, and he kicked the ball with his right foot to meet Messi's ball!

"Danger! Messi shoots!" Andy Gray was also fooled by Messi's fake move, "Oh, fake move, Ribery, the ball goes in!!! Oh my God, Tottenham Hotspur had a very beautiful team cooperation. Ribery once again broke through Arsenal's goal in the 61st minute, a shot from the top of the penalty area, 2:1!!!"

Andy Gray's shout was completely drowned out by the cheers of all Tottenham Hotspur fans at the scene!

More than 30,000 players rushed out of their seats, shouting Ribery's name loudly, 2:1, after more than half an hour of dullness, they finally completed a reversal!

"Very, very beautiful, Tottenham Hotspur played a series of cooperation on the right!" Andy Gray and all the fans in front of the TV were revisiting the cooperation just now, especially when Messi picked the ball to Van Persie, and Van Persie headed the ball back to Messi who came in from behind. The whole process was just right, as smooth as flowing water, very pleasing to the eye.

"We can see that after Messi came on the court, Tottenham Hotspur's offense was completely activated!"

Wenger on the sidelines was obviously unexpected for this goal. He was originally worried that after Messi came on the court, Tottenham Hotspur's offense should be on the right. In fact, his worries came true. This was to use the right-wing offense to attract defensive pressure and create opportunities for Ribery's cut-in.

Tottenham Hotspur's frontcourt offensive combination has too strong individual abilities, and the players have a tacit understanding of each other. They are very good at making passes with each other. More importantly, their cross-position swaps are very troublesome.

Whether it is Van Persie, Ribery, or Messi, their left and right foot abilities are very good. Such players, coupled with their skilled cross-position running, can create threats no matter where they are in the frontcourt. For defensive players, encountering such players is undoubtedly a nightmare.

And Wenger can clearly feel that the players' physical strength is almost gone.

The consumption in the first half and the beginning of the second half has caused the physical strength of Arsenal players to be severely consumed. This is also what Wenger had expected before the game. After all, it is common sense that such tactics will consume too much physical strength, but he never thought that Ye Qiu would adopt this kind of attrition war with him.

If we look at this game, Arsenal is indeed at a disadvantage, but Tottenham Hotspur will play in the Champions League in midweek. Doesn't he want the Champions League anymore?

Just when Wenger was thinking about how to make substitutions, Tottenham Hotspur created another threat.

After Messi took the ball on the right and attracted the attention of the defensive player, Alves stepped in to receive the ball. After getting the ball, he passed it to the center and ran out of space. Fabregas, who was unguarded, directly kicked the Spaniard. Ball stuffing.

"Beautiful!!!!" Andy Gray's eyes were overwhelmed when he saw Cesc Fabregas pass through Arsenal's defense accurately and reach the goalkeeper who turned around in the penalty area. Robin van Persie's foot, but after the Dutch forward got the ball, he was stuck on the left side by Gallas, and his left foot was unable to hit the goal.

After Van Persie got rid of Galas, he knew that his left foot was blocked, so he directly used his right foot to hit the ball.

This kick was a low kick, very fast, almost touching the turf, and the distance was within the range where Almunia did not dare to hit. The angle was taken from the left post. It was a kick that could be said to be both a goal kick and a goal kick. Said it was a pass.

And just when everyone was focused on this shot, it was Ribery who got rid of Sagna and Kolo Toure, grabbed the left post and advanced the ball with his left foot. Scored Arsenal's goal and scored twice!

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"It's Frank Ribery again, 3:1! Tottenham Hotspur scored two goals in less than three minutes!!!"

The French scarface quickly rushed out of the Arsenal penalty area and rushed under the Tottenham Hotspur fans' stands. He kept waving his arms to encourage the Tottenham Hotspur fans in the stadium seats. His teammates rushed out of the court one by one and hugged him tightly.

"This through ball passed by Cesc Fabregas was really good!" Andy Gray exclaimed. "It was almost the only line, the only gap, but he just passed the ball directly. Out, we can only say that, in the words of the media, this is a scalpel-like pass!"

"And let's look at Van Persie again. His stop was also very clever. After stopping, the ball did not stop at his feet, but slowed down. He stepped forward and hit the goal directly with his right foot. This should be a kick. But if Ribery hadn’t come out midway, maybe the goal might not have been scored!”

"It's so exciting, Tottenham Hotspur played an amazing offensive!"

From 1:1 to 1:3, Wenger never expected that in less than ten minutes, Tottenham Hotspur's offense would be completely revived, so he immediately made a substitution, using Alexander Song. Arteta was replaced, but at the same time Walcott, who was almost invisible in this game, was replaced with Bendtner.

This time Arsenal's frontcourt immediately piled up two towers. Wenger obviously wanted to strengthen the team's offensive efforts.

Ye Qiu did not make any substitutions, but asked the players to continue to strengthen the wing attack. Ribery, Robin van Persie and Messi were in front of them. Arsenal did not dare to press forward hastily. After all, there were Modric and Modric in the midfield. With two players in charge, Fabregas' ability to play the ball has been consolidated, and it has also diluted the pressure on Beckham, allowing him to get a chance to play.

When the game reached the 77th minute, it was a long pass from Beckham from the backcourt. Ribery rushed to the front alone, racing forward with Sagna on the left side.

Seeing Scarface gritting his teeth and sprinting, all the fans in the entire White Hart Lane stadium couldn't help but stand up from their seats.

Finally, Ribery used his speed to get ahead of Sagna, raising his foot high to unload Beckham's long pass.

The ball touched his feet and bounced towards his body. As soon as his chest stopped, the ball was controlled by him, and he himself made a fake move to stop and change direction, deceiving Sa. Nia also made an emergency stop, but the Frenchman suddenly kicked the ball forward hard and then accelerated to catch up.

Sagna just stopped suddenly and wanted to catch up again. He lost his center of gravity and was knocked directly to the turf by Ribery. He watched helplessly as Ribery rushed into the penalty area. After stopping the ball, he faced Almunia, who was hesitant to attack, hit the goal with his left foot, and the ball passed through the gap between Almunia's right side and the post.

"GOAL!!! GREAT GOAL!!!!!"

Andy Gray shouted hoarsely amid the cheers of all Tottenham fans in the audience.

After Ribery completed the shot, he quickly rushed towards the goal, jumped over Almunia who fell to the ground, hugged the ball tightly from the goal line, and hid it in his jersey. It looked like She looked like a woman with a big belly who was ten months pregnant, and then she rushed to the sidelines, forgetting herself and sliding on the grass, spreading her arms, leaning back, and laughing loudly.

"Hat trick!!! This is Ribery's first hat trick in his career!!!"

"A precise long pass from Beckham, Tottenham Hotspur's counterattack was very threatening. Arsenal obviously ignored that there was also a precise long pass master in the opponent's formation. They paid for their poor defense. cost!"

"The situation took a turn for the worse. No one expected that after the start of the second half, Tottenham Hotspur replaced two players at once, which completely activated the team's offense. Arsenal's players obviously consumed too much physical energy due to the previous high-intensity confrontation, and now they can't keep up with Tottenham Hotspur's pace."

After celebrating with his teammates, Ribery ran to the home team's coaching bench with a smile. In addition to handing the ball he was going to collect to the coaching staff for temporary safekeeping, he also did not forget to hug his most respected head coach.

"I believe that at this moment, Ye Qiu should be saying to Ribery in his ear, I am proud of you, because Ribery's performance in the second half of this game is absolutely unforgettable. He performed a hat trick in just over 30 minutes, which is really amazing!"

But in fact, Ye Qiu did not tell him that I am proud of you, but told him that it was not enough, you can do better, and told them that we must continue to strengthen our offense and completely defeat Arsenal!
