My light shines on Arsenal

Chapter 245 The wind blows ()

Emirates Stadium, "The Clock Stand".

pat.

The coffee cup in Arthur's hand was crushed into a ball of waste paper and fell to the ground.

The sound of the paper cup falling to the ground seemed clearly audible even in the noisy stands.

Arthur heard the gun fan next to him spitting and cursing Arsenal's traitor. It was not just him, but the entire fans in the Grand Bell Stand. The curses, boos, and roars merged into a breathtaking sound. A torrent of disturbing noise rushed towards the stadium.

Robin van Persie and Cesc Fabregas didn't even look at these Arsenal fans. They ran to the front of the visiting team's fan area and enjoyed the cheers and applause of the Manchester United fans.

……

Chen Yao felt that he should be angry, but he was not.

The cold rain fell on his forehead and neck. He heard his own breathing, which was very heavy, but his brain was calm.

He heard the fans yelling from the stands behind him, and he saw the figures wearing Manchester United jerseys hugging and celebrating happily.

The goal celebration seemed to last longer than usual. Are they enjoying it? How does it feel to celebrate a goal at the Emirates Stadium?

"Calm down, coach. We can't mess up our position." Juan Lillo approached Chen Yao and gently patted the Arsenal coach.

Lillo does not have as complex feelings towards these old Arsenal players as members of the coaching staff who have served at Arsenal for many years, so he has maintained his sanity quite well.

Bergkamp's face was much uglier than Lillo's. Antonio Pintus kept talking to the Gunners legend, trying to get him to give up the idea of ​​rushing onto the court to play a set of military boxing.

"Thank you, Juan, I didn't get carried away." Chen Yao glanced at the scoreboard, "It's just a draw... I don't quite understand why Manchester United is happy."

After equalizing the score, Manchester United's game rhythm became much more stable.

This conceding goal undoubtedly dealt a blow to the morale of the Arsenal players, because they did not make many mistakes. The shot was almost blocked, and it was only thanks to Robin van Persie's flash of inspiration in front of the goal that the ball was scored.

The young Gunners were infuriated by Robin van Persie's celebrations and the pace of their game became faster and faster.

Mikel Arteta could hardly keep up the rhythm. Manchester United's pressure in the frontcourt was greatly reduced. He successfully distributed the ball to the frontcourt several times, and then De Bruyne was like a clockwork machine. Likewise, a whirlwind attack launched into Manchester United's penalty area.

But Manchester United's position was not disrupted.

The redness on Ferguson's face gradually faded, and he felt that control of the game was gradually returning to his hands.

The Manchester United players have a good tacit understanding when defending in depth, and they are good at physical confrontation and can always use collisions and fouls to destroy Arsenal's offense.

Of course, the referee's favoritism towards Manchester United is also an unexplainable reason.

Ferguson's influence on British football is profound and long-lasting.

Arsenal's offense ended more and more hastily, and Chen Yao found that the team's efficiency was declining sharply.

It's halftime.

The Arsenal players walked to the dressing room reluctantly, while the Manchester United players walked towards the visiting team's dressing room happily.

"Well done, boys." Ferguson and Mike Phelan praised the Manchester United players one after another.

"They should have discovered the problem." Mike Phelan said, "Arsenal is impatient. Their offensive efficiency has declined seriously. It seems that we are defending, but our goal is not threatened."

"Let them continue." Ferguson smiled, "This is their style, not ours."

……

"After returning from the halftime break, Arsenal made the first substitution of the game..."

Martin Taylor glanced at the list of players on the field and commented: "Arsenal replaced Santi Cazorla and replaced him with Tomas Rosicky. There were rumors before the game that Cazorla still had some minor injuries, maybe. Arsenal made early substitutions to protect the players."

Tomas Rosicky came on the court. He moved his body and saw Chen Yao nodding to him.

Rosicky thought about what the coach said to him in the locker room.

——"The current score is one to one, Thomas. This is not enough. What I want is three points, otherwise I might as well lose. I need your talent, your speed, and your... football soul. Again Be young for once.”

Yes, Arsenal are not slowing down.

Continue the whirlwind attack and completely defeat Manchester United.

On the field, three veterans, Arteta, Sagna and Rosicky, were present at the same time.

In Chen Yao's field of vision, the three of them were all flashing with looming light, it was [Old and Stronger] that was improving their condition at the same time. They are the three oldest players in the Arsenal team, and now, they have to use the most passionate football to solve Manchester United.

……

The goal guarded by De Gea faced Arsenal's stormy attack.

The Manchester United goalkeeper had blocked and saved three shots. Within 12 minutes of the start of the second half, Manchester United's defensive formation was unable to stop Arsenal's offense and was frequently penetrated into the penalty area.

Tomas Rosicky's style is different from that of Santi Cazorla. Cazorla has the magician's two-foot skills and can spin the ball out of all kinds of adversities, but Rosicky is different.

Rosicky is like a musician, and his handling of the ball is difficult to summarize in a fixed pattern.

He can distribute the ball with just a few simple movements, or he can dribble delicately and make continuous breakthroughs. His figure shuttles around Manchester United's left wing like a ghost.

If you like football, you will definitely like Rosicky.

This is what Arsene Wenger said about Rosicky.

If you like Arsenal football, you will love Rosicky. Because he understands the soul of Gunners football.

This is Chen Yao's evaluation of Rosicky.

Arsenal's three midfielders are constantly running, outlining moving triangles in the heart of Manchester United, connecting with the wings and forwards, creating murderous opportunities.

Rosicky and Zaha continuously attacked Rafael's defense on the left wing. Rosicky's elusive football style and Zaha's breakthrough made it difficult for Rafael to defend on the right, making it difficult to support him in the frontcourt.

Kevin De Bruyne and Walcott's aggressive attacks on the right wing made the 32-year-old Evra miserable. De Bruyne and Walcott both have strong dribbling skills and impact. , especially De Bruyne - his passing vision is wide and his passing options are very aggressive. Even if the accuracy is not high, as long as it misses it, it is a threat.

Robin van Persie, Cesc Fabregas and Rooney found themselves embarrassed to be forced to retreat into Manchester United's half to defend. The farther away from Arsenal's penalty area, the lower their presence.

Wait, wait, wait.

Ferguson pinched his chin and looked at the situation on the field. It was not that he did not expect Arsenal to be so determined in their offensive choices. This team has always been like this. They did not bother to defend a draw cowardly, but would attack with all their might. More goals to end the game.

But what he didn't expect was that Manchester United could not stop Arsenal's attack.

Darren Fletcher, Anderson and Smalling all went to the sidelines to warm up under the leadership of Mike Phelan. Ferguson looked to Shinji Kagawa and Juan Mata to signal that they were also ready to warm up.

Michael Carrick's defensive weaknesses need to be compensated, and United must strike back and counter-attack Arsenal if they are to win.

Ferguson was biding his time.

Does the timing...really exist?

Michael Carrick's foot slipped, and there was a slight flaw in his ball control. Tomas Rosicky slid in front of him and slid past him along the turf like a cello, letting the ball escape Michael Carrick's control.

Rosicky, who was covered in mud and water, climbed up from the ground, hooked his right foot, and put the ball in front of him, passing by Carrick like the wind.

A Manchester United player chased Rosicky. Rosicky did not slow down, but feinted and accelerated gracefully, wiping past the defender.

Cesc Fabregas was left behind by Rosicky.

Rosicky did not notice that he was leaving behind Cesc Fabregas. He ran lithely in the rain and rushed towards the Manchester United penalty area.

He thought about a question countless times, if he came to Arsenal earlier, if he didn't have so many injuries, if he could reach the peak he should have reached...

What kind of player will you be?

Rosicky regrets that he has no chance to find the answer to this question.

But today, he was in better shape than ever.

Manchester United's defense was disturbed by Rosicky.

All Manchester United players are shrinking towards the penalty area, but Rosicky's speed has not dropped.

He doesn't look like a veteran in his thirties at all. He is like a boy chasing the wind, like a gust of red and white wind, blowing through Manchester United's position and passing through their defense.

That's the wind blowing from Prague, the wind blowing from Dortmund.

The wind that grew up with Rosicky as a football artist finally blew for the last time at the Emirates Stadium.
