Chapter 196: Chelsea’s loopholes, Arshavin's contribution!

Faced with Yang Feng's goal, Wenger, who has been watching the game situation on the sidelines, is also very helpless!
I call Bendtner to defend, and Yang Feng is obviously getting better and better, but Bendtner himself is really disappointed on the defensive end!
Wenger himself has always admired Bendtner's talents over the years. At this age, Bendtner's shooting skills are not very good, but there is definitely room for further improvement!
What Wenger appreciates most is Bendtner's ability to make the ball and his excellent vision when passing the ball! A fulcrum center, his own skills are not bad, and he can create opportunities to hit the goal himself!
In Wenger's expectation, Bendtner can be tuned into an excellent high center! All-round high center forward! It can not only help the team to attack the city, but also serve as the fulcrum of the frontcourt, delivering ammunition for the team's offensive system!
But in recent years, Wenger has been paying attention to the development of Bendtner, but the speed of Bendtner's growth has made Wenger feel whether he is a little misleading!
Although Bendtner's physical fitness does have the prerequisites for becoming a superstar! But on psychological issues, perhaps Bendtner needs more guidance!
Absent training, resisting some basic training, bad temper, some uncomfortable, still on the defensive end, always unable to meet their defensive requirements!
As a European, Bendtner has the unprofessional attitude of some South American players who are unruly and greedy for pleasure.
Wenger really cherishes his talents, but if this continues, Wenger feels that perhaps he should really let him go to other teams to hone!
In this FA Cup final, Bendtner’s task is to require him to provide an excellent screen for Arshavin on the offensive end, to act as a fulcrum, pass the ball to Arshavin, and to rely on himself to a certain extent. His height advantage disrupts Chelsea's defense!
Wenger's main two wing tactics are to allow Bendtner to complete the task of grabbing points and head directly to the goal, or receive a pass to create opportunities for Arshavin behind him!
It's just that now his team's offense has not scored, but on the defensive end, Chelsea has advanced a header. Wenger feels that it may be really difficult to fall behind in this game!
Perhaps at the beginning of the season, for the FA Cup, the English League Cup requires the precious physical energy of the team, and there are many rounds of games, the rich teams will not care too much! Send a youth team and substitute players perfunctory!
But now that it has reached the final stage, no team will say anything and don't care about a domestic cup championship!
In other words, it is also the honor of the team. Although it can't reach the league championship, and the Champions League trophy is full of beauty, for the fans of your team, any championship is the accumulation of the history of the team! It is the source of joy for fans to have a carnival!
Even if Chelsea is really strong, even if Chelsea's defense is still the top brass wall in Europe, Wenger, at this time, still has to use offense to pull back the suspense of the game, and strive to complete the comeback in the final!
The first half is not over yet, only one goal behind, Wenger will not make substitutions now! It just kept saying from the sidelines that the team moved as a whole to put more pressure on Chelsea's defense! He is also constantly letting his two full-backs bravely insert the offense, so that the team's wing attack tactics can have more follow-up strength to achieve the purpose of tearing Chelsea's defense!
As far as the offensive effect is concerned, Arsenal's left attack, with Klichy's continuous insertion of assists, obviously took the lead in playing good results!
Although Chelsea replaced Bosingwa with a stronger defensive ability in this game, there was no orthodox wing player in front of Bosingwa to help him form the first layer of defense!
Although Essien and Mikel are both excellent defensive midfielders, they sometimes help block Arsenal players from the wing!
However, the position of the back midfielder, the defensive habits of the position of the wing player, and the way of defensive are still quite different. Essien and Mikel occasionally played on the wing and the defense is fine. After the wing is really fixed, the defensive effect But not necessarily very good!
Under Arsenal's constant wing attack, Chelsea left because Malouda was defending on this side. Arsenal threatened to attack the number of times, not many!
But Chelsea's right defense line began to loosen under the repeated impact of Arsenal players, Nasri and Klich!
Especially for the French player Nasri, his speed, explosiveness, and various extraordinary skills are very good! The only weakness I have to talk about is probably too thin to withstand too much physical confrontation!
Several times when Mikel and Bosingwa found opportunities for physical contact, Nasri couldn't get rid of it!
But as the game progresses! Nasri himself is constantly adapting to Chelsea's defensive rhythm!
Nasri gradually began to run forward without the ball! The Arsenal midfielder Fabregas, who is responsible for organizing, can always pass the ball accurately before he rushes to the offside, giving him a chance to play behind Bosingwa!
Although Bosingwa's recovery speed is much faster than his competitor Ivanovic at this position, Arsenal's style of play does not have the expectation of killing Bosingwa with a stick!
Just to simply give them a 1v1 chance in the depths of the sidewalk in an instant!
In this empty stage when Chelsea's defensive midfielder was too late to replenish the defense, Nasri alone fully demonstrated his personal skills and the ability to force breakthroughs!
Even under Bosingwa’s defense, Nasri’s breakthrough success rate is not particularly high, but every successful breakthrough means an excellent pass opportunity or giving Nasri himself into the penalty area. Opportunity within!
Arsenal’s double forwards, at this time, played a role of containment. Even at the moment of Nasri’s breakthrough, Walcott on the right of Arsenal would move to the back of the penalty area and act as a grab in the penalty area depending on the situation. Point players!
After several violent attacks on the left side of Kezha, Nasri created two excellent passing opportunities alone, but both of these passes were intercepted by Yang Feng alone!
Terry defends Bendtner’s stunned youth, and Arshavin has always been cruising around the penalty area. In Chelsea’s defensive tactics, Essien specializes in marking Arshavin, so Yang Feng, who acts as a free defender, has enough There is a large space for activity and a degree of freedom. For Nasri's two attempts to pass the front point and the middle position, they happened to be within Yang Feng's control and were successfully resolved by Yang Feng!
And Bendtner, who had been entangled with Terry, was still running to the position after Nasri passed the ball twice, and he saw that Yang Feng had been directly in place, occupying the best position!
And Bendtner, who was at a disadvantage in the matchup with Terry, naturally couldn't do 1v2 anymore, and what effective interference would it do to Yang Feng!
Hiddink was on the sidelines and also discovered that Arsenal's offensive on the left is very active, especially Nasri. His personal breakthrough ability has caused a great passivity to Bosingwa's defense! Although up to now, Arsenal has not had any threatening shot opportunities on the offensive end, but the emergence of loopholes has also reminded Hiddink to be cautious!
Hiddink, without too much hesitation, directly moved Mikel closer to the right, and moved Bosingwa's position back by a distance! The purpose is not to give Nasri enough space, but also to allow Mikel to be in front and complete some consumption tasks first!
Hiddink has no pure wing players on his right, so he can only choose to believe in Mikel's defensive coverage and excellent recovery ability, but he can definitely help Bosingwa as much as possible!
Although Mikel is on the right side, it may reduce the strength of Chelsea's defense in the center, but in this game, Arsenal's attack in the center is indeed a bit self-defeating!
Both Nasri and Walcott are pure wing players, and Fabregas is not the kind of player with strong breakthrough ability. As for the other midfielder Denilson, this game is on the defensive end. Provides more energy, on the offensive end, it has only been used as a passing point for Fabregas!
Just after Mikelga's protection of Bosingwa on the right, Nasri's next attack was directly strangled by the Chelsea generals on the wing!
In the first half of the game, Chelsea is about to take a 1-0 lead and enter the intermission. At this time, Arsenal can only rely on the individual performance of the superstar when it is stagnant in offensive tactics!
And those who are going to stand up, in fact, have always wanted to prove their Arshavin!
As the last moment of the winter transfer window, Arshavin, who moved to Arsenal at the buzzer, has actually suffered tremendous psychological pressure after the end of the European Cup this season!
After the European Cup, Arshavin agreed to Zenit’s request for the remaining Russian Super League and chose to stay with the team for at least half a year. However, because of Zenit’s consecutive make-up matches in the Russian Super League, the team has a somewhat thin lineup and no longer Can continue to maintain the strength of the lineup!
In the Russian Super League, Zenit's performance plummeted! In the new season of the Champions League, the dark horses of European football last season, after losing their main players, no longer have the strength of dark horses. They fell into the sand in the group stage and took the third place in the group to participate in the European Cup. Knockout!
And Arshavin, after the team quickly prepared to enter the reconstruction period, also successfully had the opportunity to move to a higher stage!
However, due to the winter transfer window, the financial impact of the financial crisis, and Arshavin's performance in the past six months, only Arsenal, who has been saving money, signed Arshavin to supplement the striker! Other giants do not have the same enthusiasm after the European Cup!
Although Wenger likes Arshavin's playing style very much, Arshavin himself is in the Premier League, but because of the language exchange and the different playing habits, the speed of integrating into Arsenal is not too fast!
Moreover, Arshavin has to face the competition for the starting position. If he wants to firmly occupy the starting position, he can only rely on his outstanding performance and the full help of his teammates!
But in professional football, you have to show your strength on the field before you can win the trust of your teammates!
Facing the Chelsea players, the slackness before the end of the half-time and the openness in the midfield were also revealed. Arshavin was like a cheetah waiting for the prey to appear. With the emergence of opportunities, it suddenly emerged and showed his strength. Explosive power!
"Fàbregas controls the ball in the midfield, but facing Chelsea's tight defense, it seems that there are not too many opportunities!"
Arshavin, as Nasri continued to move forward at full speed, caused Mikel and Bosingwa's double defense to move to the side, and the long-awaited empty space was right in front of him! Arshavin, who has been acting as Bendtner's shadow forward, waiting for Bendtner to play, this time, wants to get in touch with the Arsenal midfielder directly!
Arshavin, cruising near the Chelsea penalty area, follows his own running route and wants to continue to move to the right to open up space with Bendtner!
At this time, it was a sudden turn to accelerate, moving quickly to the left!
Essien’s reaction has been quick, and he also wants to follow Arshavin quickly, but the Russian "Czar" has the first mover advantage and maintains a position advantage!
But in the hinterland of Chelsea's penalty area, although Mikel went to the right to help defend, Arshavin ran to the left position, there is a Chelsea defensive vacuum!
But this kind of defensive gap is definitely not big. In a short moment, Mikel, Essien, and Yang Feng in the penalty area can complete a three-person encirclement and block this gap!
But in a short moment, it also takes time!
Arshavin's chance is real. Although this sudden move is not a step in Arsenal's prescribed tactics, it is the world's top passer, Fabregas who takes the ball!
Fabregas didn’t hesitate to face the running gap that Arshavin suddenly created by himself. With the feeling of ~EbookFREE.me~, he passed the ball directly to Arshavin’s running route. Ahead, a fairly accurate advance!
"Fàbregas, suddenly a long-range through ball!"
"Arshavin, after suddenly shifting to the left, he received Fabregas's through ball! He led the ball lightly and controlled the through ball directly at his own feet!"
"Several Chelsea players in blue jerseys, surrounded them!"
"But Arshavin, after receiving the ball, he swung his left leg and hit the goal!"
"This ball has an external spin!"
"GOAL! Got in! Got in!"
"Arshavin!"
"Before the end of the half-time match, I completed a direct connection with midfielder Fabregas and scored Arsenal's first goal in this final!"
"Arsenal, Arsenal, before halftime, tied the score 1 to 1!"
"Chelsea's defense, just a little bit of empty space, was caught by Arshavin by running without the ball, and with Fabregas's precise through ball, he completed a fatal blow!"
Yang Feng was really helpless with this ball. When Arshavin suddenly turned back and ran, Yang Feng had already discovered something wrong and wanted to come directly to make up for it!
However, Yang Feng's own position is deep in the penalty area, and the distance from Arshavin outside the penalty area is too far, and Arshavin did not procrastinate when receiving the ball, and did not waste a little time at all. I am afraid the entire shooting process. I had already planned it before. After receiving the ball, he finished the goal directly. Essien's defense was only a little short, and he completed the tackle and interception!
In this way, in the remaining game time, neither side created any great opportunities. Chelsea and Arsenal, with a score of 1-1, entered the intermission time!
