On the evening of April 2, London, Emirates Stadium.
When the referee half blew the whistle at the end of the game, Yang Cheng's face calmly applauded towards the players walking down the court.
Although, Real Madrid did not win Arsenal in this game, but ultimately, defeated, defeated, but this is not an unacceptable situation for Real Madrid, because Real Madrid will return to the home will be good Lessons learned from Arsenal.
The most important point of the Champions League knockout is not to cling to the 90-minute game, but to defeat the opponent within 180 minutes. This is the key to winning the knockout, so it is meaningless to cling to the 90-minute loss.
But from this game, Yang Cheng also saw Arsenal's problems.
Beckham scored the away goal for Real Madrid. Beckham, who appeared in the right-wing position in this game, was more retreating, creating conditions for the full-backs Ramos to insert. The ball was once inserted into the penalty area and scored for Real Madrid.
But immediately afterwards, Beckham was defeated by Hleb, and the Belarusians were pulled down in the penalty area. The result was a yellow card and a penalty for Real Madrid. Arsenal defeated Real Madrid from home at the end. .
In this game, Wenger's back line out of the combination of Krishna, Gallas, Senderos and Toure, but Toure, who has not played the right back for a long time, was very uncomfortable and was repeatedly used by Marcelo. Eating alone, plus Senderos, who is on the right side, has performed poorly. Yang Cheng, who has been played by Villa for many times, has realized Arsenal's defensive loopholes.
Clichy's offensive and weak defense, lack of sense of position, Toure also has a lot of problems on the right, plus Senderos, the current Arsenal defense is the only one that is more reliable, Gallas, but can punch Hard to beat four hands, return to the Bernabeu and see the true chapter again!
Of course, this game of Arsenal does not mean that there are no highlights at all. The biggest highlight of the game is the Van Persie. Although the Dutch striker has many injuries, he still grasped the few times in this game. Opportunity, the first record for Arsenal.
Robin Hood of the Netherlands has not really shown the success of his Bergkamp successor and Henry's replacement so far, which is inconsistent with the praise and high recognition from the outside world, but in fact, as long as he appears in On the court, he can create a threat, because he is also a talented player.
Judging from the technical characteristics, Van Persie's advantage lies in his stopping the ball. Many people praise his ability to adjust after receiving the ball. In fact, this is because his stopping ball is very good. You can stop the ball according to your own wishes. This is where he went to create the illusion that he adjusted very well. In fact, he stopped the ball very well. This is the place he is most like Bergkamp.
After stopping the ball, the technical action looks very chic and calm!
In the face of the goal, another feature of him is that he can use the smallest amplitude leg swing in the narrowest gap to shoot the most powerful shot, which makes him even in the most densely restricted area. Being able to create a threat and this sudden shot will make the goalkeeper unprepared.
This was his first goal of the game, even if Casillas responded quickly, but it was too late to save the ball.
But compared to Robin Hood, Adebayor's recent state is very poor. The whole match with Van Persie is also very general.
"Back to Bernabeu, we must separate them and stare to death one by one!" Yang Cheng said with a smile.
Compared with Van Persie, who is eye-catching on the front line, Fabregas was suppressed by Mascherano in this game. The Argentine's strong oppression and targeted defense in the midfield, especially against Fabre at any time and anywhere Gass' right foot, imprisoning his possession of the ball, forced him to behave very well in the game.
One factor that is good for Real Madrid is that Arsenal will play against Liverpool this weekend, but Real Madrid can retain the Champions League next week in Mallorca. This is not what Arsenal have. They must now be based on This season's Premier League champions fight, which makes it impossible for them to stay in the league.
This season's Premier League title is full of suspense. At the top of the list is Ferguson's Manchester United. After a few years of adjustment, this season's Manchester United have shown good momentum, but second place Liverpool and third Chelsea and Arsenal in fourth place are close behind.
At present, the points difference between Arsenal and Manchester United is only 3 points. It can be said that the league title is still full of suspense. Wenger is struggling, and the opponent is directly winning competitor Liverpool. The fifth Everton is also chasing fiercely. , These make Wenger dare not careless.
"Although I am very reluctant to say it, I still have to say that it is really hard for you to win!" Yang Cheng said with a laugh when Wenger came over.
Wenger chuckled, "Anyway, we got a victory at home!"
"But in Bernabeu, you won't be so lucky!" Yang Cheng said, "Your biggest problem is that the away record is too high. In Bernabeu, I will completely explode your defense!" He frightened with fists.
Wenger nodded, "Although come here!"
Arsenal's biggest problem is still youth. As Yang Cheng said when he hit Wenger, you always sell the star, Vieira, Henry, and Ashley. Well, slowly, you give the team and players an illusion that there is hardly anyone in Arsenal that cannot be sold.
He insisted on his idea for being too stubborn for Wai Wenge. Once he was 30 years old, he adopted the strategy of one sign a year. This was another blow to the players, because they clearly saw themselves in the gunman from this strategy. Without Zhu Lai, since I had to leave when I was 30, I might as well leave early!
Almost every time he loses, Wenger will use the lack of experience to explain, but in fact one and a half times is okay, always lack of experience, it is a bit unreasonable, after all, any team will mature, unless you keep selling When mature stars are introduced and young semi-finished products are introduced, it is of course always young.
Yang Cheng also told Wenger about this, but the French are still doing their own thing.
In any case, Wenger deserves respect, because he is one of the very few idealists in the utilitarian football circle that has already flooded. At this point, he deserves respect!
After a week of hard work at the Emirates Stadium, he drew Arsenal at Liverpool and met at the Bernabeu Stadium: Wenger had an ominous hunch when he drew the Mallorca's Rima away.
Yang Cheng's starting lineup and changes at the Emirates Stadium, the goalkeeper is still Casillas, from left to right are Marcelo, Tiago, Silva, Ramos With Aveloya, this line of defense is also the line of defense of Real Madrid at the Emirates Stadium. After Pepe was injured, Ramos was the main defender.
The double midfielders are Harvey, Alonso and Mascherano, which are also the same as the first round starter, but David, Silva, who played the left starter in the first round, was transferred to the right by Yang Cheng and replaced It is Real Madrid youth training Mata who plays the main left striker, Kaka is still in the front, and Villa continues to play the single forward.
This set of starting lineups was put out, Wenger has realized that Yang Cheng is going to play a left-side offensive tactics and Mata is his surprise soldier.
Although is also a left-winger, in fact, Mata and David, Silva's characteristics are very different.
David, Silva is more capable of organizing, passing more delicate and more imaginative, not only can control the rhythm, but also can take the ball to get rid of the push and play deep and he has a lot of assists. , So he looks more like a passer in the wing.
Mata has the opposite characteristics. He is a striker. The organization is very general but the technique is very delicate. Like all Spanish small players, he is good at cooperating in a narrow range. The consciousness is very outstanding and can pass the last pass, but not as big Guard, Silva was as imaginative as he was but he was sharper on the wing and more threatening in the pass, and after taking the ball inside, he was more lethal in the rib.
The technical characteristics are different and the threats created are also different.
In the first round of the Emirates Stadium, in the face of Ke Rongtu Lei, Real Madrid's left side is more dependent on the cooperation of Marcelo and Villa. David and Silva often take the ball to participate in the organization and response There are also breakthroughs on the sidelines, but the threat is not great.
But in the first round, Marcelo caused trouble to Kozi Toure, and Yang Cheng saw hope, so in this game he took advantage of Beckham's suspension and transferred David and Silva to the right. Let Mata play on the left and use Mata and Marcelo to take turns to attack the area where Kohe Turre is stationed.
Although Wenger was on the safe side of consideration, gave up Adebayor, chose Van Persie, played von, tactics, arranged three players in the middle of the three Flamini, Fabregas and Diaby, but Still being firmly suppressed by Real Madrid using their home advantage after the opening.
The first minute, it was Ha ... Alonso and Marcelo teamed up to break the ball under Eboue who played the right forward. The Spaniard knocked directly behind Eboue and Marcelo passed the ball.
Mata retreated and took the ball and turned around. Fabregas approached from the side. Kezi Toure also stared at Real Madrid.
According to the responsibilities Yang Cheng gave Mata in this game, he can freely decide whether to break through or cut in on the wing according to the situation, so as soon as he turned around, he noticed that he and Fabregas still have a certain The distance suddenly jumped up to his highest speed. His sudden rush made Fabregas a little caught off guard. It was too late to speed up the block and wanted to tug him, but did not grab the jersey.
Matta suddenly accelerated and suddenly shortened the distance between him and Colo and Touré. The Ivorian immediately posted it, but Matta stopped abruptly and suddenly changed direction, bringing the ball to Coha ... Touré's left side.
Mata, who is not tall, seems to be a loach. In the double-layer defense of Coron Touré and Fabregas, a gap was squeezed out. The dribble attracted Senderos to the left of the front edge of the penalty area. When he came out, he hit the ball with a straight pass and passed the defense straight behind. Villa plugged in at a high speed and it was a one-shot!
"GOOL !!!!!!"
"In the first minute, Real Madrid's youth training Mata made a straight stop after a continuous breakthrough on the left, assisting Villa to open the record! "
"2: 2 Real Madrid's total score tied with Arsenal. The current situation is extremely unfavorable for the Gunners, because Real Madrid has an away goal in the hand, which forces Arsenal to press out to play, otherwise, continue to maintain this score, The last laugh is Real Madrid! "
"Arsenal's players are too tired to fight three tough battles within a week. Two games against Real Madrid and one against Liverpool are all unmissable games. The tired Fabregas and Coron Touré are obviously a little bit Can't keep up with Mata's pace and rhythm, the body is not excited enough to hit the state, especially in speed. "
After scoring the first goal, Real Madrid continued to maintain their existing tactics and continued to launch a round of attack on Arsenal's left.
In the 33rd minute, David and Silva took the ball on the right and then passed to Kaka. The Brazilian moved to the left again. Mata forced a breakthrough on the left side of Koroture and earned a corner for Real Madrid.
Several Real Madrid players with excellent header ability came up. In the absence of Pepe, Real Madrid ’s high-ball ability has not had much advantage, that is, a Ramos, so ha ... Alonso will take the ball After driving it out, it was handed over to Kaka. The Brazilian took a kick and hit the ball. Ramos flicked away the sentro de Sendero, then nodded and scored the goal for Real Madrid to go to the next city. , 2: 0!
"3: 2, Real Madrid completed the reversal in the total score !!"
"Sendros is responsible for this goal drop. He obviously focused all his attention on Ramos, and did not pay attention to Kaka ’s foot-passing pass. As he was thrown away by Ramos, he did not get in front of the Spaniard in time, allowing the latter to easily score a header. "
"This goal made Arsenal completely passive, they must now counterattack Real Madrid 2 goals at the Bernabeu Stadium in order to qualify for the qualifying, but this is obviously a very difficult thing!"
After scoring two goals in a row, Real Madrid began to patiently look for opportunities and began to consciously let Arsenal press up to play, but the Gunners did not have this idea throughout the first half.
It wasn't until the second half that Van Persie pulled the ball to Real Madrid's left side, and after winning the ball, the counter-offside was successful. In the left side of Real Madrid's penalty area, he passed Tiago Gorva and passed to the goal. Diaby pulled back a goal for Arsenal.
As if seeing the dawn of hope, Arsenal started a round of onslaught, but in less than 6 minutes, Real Madrid once again hit a counterattack on the left, after Matara got the ball in the middle and passed it to Marseille. Luo, the latter quickly dribble the ball on the wing, forcibly surpassing Kolo, Toure, and low pass before the penalty area.
Kaka plugged it in, leaned on Senderos with his body, and swept the ball into the goal guarded by Amunia with his left foot, once again expanding the score.
H just saw hope, but was relentlessly harvested again. Arsenal's morale was full of steam. Wenger bowed his head on the sidelines with his hands in his waist and walked slowly. Is disappointed.
Since Campbell, Arsenal have always lacked a stable frontal defensive player, not Wenger did not want, but could not find the right one, originally he wanted to use Coha ... The combination of Toure and Gallas, but Sani Ya's injury disrupted Wenger's plan. He was uneasy about Eboue's full-back, so he let Kolo and Touré move to the right.
Did not expect that this step not only cost him a solid center defender, but also made him lose his right.
If Yang Cheng cunningly used the Emirates Stadium to test Arsenal in the minute, then at the Bernabeu Stadium, he began to come up with real killer skills, at least Juan, Mata and Marcelo's left combination A huge threat completely turned Arsenal's right road into Real Madrid's exclusive lane.
Another thing worth reminding Wenger is that when Arsenal finally pulled back a goal, the players were out of control. They were suppressed by Real Madrid for a long time. After finally breaking free, they began to want to rush to achieve the goal The score reversed, ignoring that he was at the Bernabeu stadium, facing the most aggressive Real Madrid in Europe this season.
In the final analysis, Arsenal's bench is still not enough. At least Wenger is not like Yang Cheng. He can randomly combine his own different techniques and tactics according to different opponents. What the Emirates Stadium said about the Arsenal defense line was confirmed.
Huzhi Mata, this game has become a monster in Yang Cheng's hands!
As the game gets closer to the end, Arsenal, whose original body energy is already at a disadvantage, becomes more passive on the scene.
In the 85th minute, Xavi and Alonso went straight in the middle. After Kaka took the ball against Fabregas, he used his physical advantage to suppress the Spaniard and passed the ball sideways to the right side. David, Silva, the latter went straight and broke the Arsenal defense.
Villa leaned on Galas and passed from the left side of the French defender. After receiving a pass from David Selva, a volley on his right foot and a ball on the foot almost rubbed the right post. Rolled into Arsenal's goal, 4: 1!
This goal has completely laid the victory, especially in front of Arsenal players who have obviously failed to keep up with the pace of the game. The total score is 5: 3. They have to score two goals in the last few minutes to be able to Make sure to qualify, this is undoubtedly impossible.
Despite the last moment, Wenger finally got out and replaced Diaby with Adebayor to further strengthen the attack, but in the end he still failed to perform the last-minute miracle of reversal at the Bernabeu Stadium. Real Madrid finally relied on 4: 1 at home , With an overall score of 5: 3, Arsenal eliminated the Champions League quarterfinals, Jin Xunqiang semi-finals!
In another game at the same time, Chelsea were away: 2 losses to Fenerbahçe, at home Z. After defeating the opponent, two midfielders, Barack and Lampard, contributed to the establishment of Chelsea.
A day later than Real Madrid, Barcelona lost 3-1 at Livefield with a 1: 1 draw at Liverpool. They were eventually eliminated from the quarterfinals of the UEFA Champions League. Manchester United took a total score of 3: 0 sent away Serie A powerhouse Rome.
In this way, the four teams in the UEFA Champions League semi-finals were freshly released, namely Liverpool faced Manchester United's deadly rivalry, and Chelsea and Real Madrid's revenge battle! (To be continued)
