Chapter 17 Mixed joys and sorrows

Chapter 17: Mixed joys and sorrows

After the start of the second half, Mourinho did arrange more changes to Arsenal's offensive routine. The position of "Little Fatty" Rooney moved to the left, and others also began to cooperate with him more.

In the 46th minute, just one minute of the second half, Rooney took the ball with her back in front of the penalty area on the left of Leeds United. After passing it back to Ramsey who followed up, he turned around and wiped it in from Chen Jinlong. Ramsey did not stop the ball, and directly pushed the ball back with a "splash".

It's very simple to go back and forth, but "Xiaopang" has changed from taking the ball outside the penalty area with his back to facing the goal in the penalty area...

"Bang!"

Rooney used the outside instep of his left foot, which he was not very good at, to draw a arc ball. The ball flew into the air in a large arc and flew towards the right goal of Leeds United. Unfortunately, Rooney's footwork was not well controlled, and the ball actually rotated too much and flew directly into Diaz's hand.

"oh------"

While sighing in the Emirates Stadium, Diaz, who was lying in the small penalty area with the ball in his arms, was still very grateful. The ball was too dangerous just now. The team has switched to a defensive counterattack, but this cold arrow still makes people unable to defend!

"Book!"

After Diaz stood up, he threw the ball with his hand and sent the ball to Ben Parker on the left. Leeds United's counterattack started from the left...

After passing the ball at Ben Parker, Jonny Hausen and Lons several times, Ben Parker, who followed up, sent the ball to the small penalty area line facing the goal in the Arsenal penalty area.

Ben Parker's cross is his experience and technology over the years of experience and performance as a left-back. He has made him complete assists in the game countless times, speed, angle and accuracy.

But this time...

Dong!

The ball was pushed out by Arsenal central defender Sparks. Shaq didn't even touch the edge of the ball at all. It was not that Shaq didn't compete. But Papadopoulos, Robert Niho and the other two had blocked him with their bodies in the morning!

Shaq smiled and turned around and shook his head: Damn! You're so naughty!? Three people play with me!?

Even at his peak, Shaq would not be able to win the ball under such conditions, let alone now that he is thirty years old, and his competitive state is really on a downhill road.

However... the defense just now was Arsenal's left-back's choice or Mourinho's tactical arrangement!?

If it was Mourinho's arrangement, then there should be loopholes on Arsenal's back line, especially in the position of left-back Papadopoulos, can we take advantage of it?

Shaq was still thinking about it, and Arsenal's attack hit again, and their playing style was still very fast and fierce... counterattack!

The ball was pushed out by Sparks and fell to the feet of Ramsey who was retreating, and then was passed back to the left-back Papadopoulos who ran out of the penalty area, and then...

"Bang!"

Papadopoulos actually made a long pass and sent the ball to the feet of the Italian striker Sack who ran to the left front!

Italian forward Sack Sack is very comprehensive. He is not a forward who relies on his body to make a living. Instead, he is a typical Italian Latin striker with strong mobility and a large range of mobility.

"Dong!"

While running, Sak stopped the bounced ball with his chest, and before the ball fell to the ground, he pushed the ball forward with his left foot and ran along the side. Chen Jinlong beside him had no chance to intercept, and only left was running against the Italians on the inside.

Fortunately, although Chen Jinlong is only twenty years old now, he has made great progress under the guidance of Simon Grayson and has already had 81 professional league games. He is already very stable when defending.

Chen Jinlong, who was running against Sak, did not give his opponent any chance to shoot or pass himself. He even blocked the cross angle.

The two ran all the way into the Leeds United penalty area. As they were getting closer and closer to the bottom line, Kslov, who was in the central defender, rushed up. He wanted to join Chen Jinlong to block the defense and snatch the ball completely.

However, Kslov ran over. Leeds United's mid-lane defense was easy, and Sack passed the ball back at this moment, and the position was on the left in the middle, which was originally Kslov's defense!

kindness!?

Simon Grayson off the court suddenly became nervous. This ball...is dangerous!

Kslov... is so aggressive!

Another central defender of Leeds United, Du Jinlong, had already run over to make up for the position. However, a figure wearing a red top was faster than him and rushed in straight from outside the penalty area... Barkley!

"Bang!"

Barkley, 29, was born in Everton. At the age of 23, he transferred to Arsenal for £20 million and also followed Simon Grayson to win the World Cup. His personal ability is also very outstanding among many English midfielders.

At this time, Barkley fully showed his strength. He didn't stop the ball at all, but just shot in front of the ball!

"Swoosh!"

The ball was close to the ground and flew straight to the lower left corner of the Leeds United goal!

The low, fast, and tricky shot made Diaz, who had just moved to the middle, helpless. He fell to the ground and saved the ball without touching the ball...

"goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

A shocking cheer sounded at the Emirates Stadium. The second half started just three minutes, and when the whole game reached 48 minutes, the "Gunners" who fought at home finally tied the score again!

"Oh, Yuri... Yuri!"

Off the court, Simon Grayson shook his head helplessly and sighed, muttering Kslov's name. The goal just now was just one of the dangers reflected by Kslov's frizz. This young Russian central defender has potential and motivation. He even scored 3 goals in his six games for Leeds United, which is valuable for a central defender.

But this frigidness will definitely affect his progress and will even become the most insurmountable stumbling block on Kslov's road to a world-class central defender!

"Simon!"

Harvey, who was sitting next to Simon Grayson, said: "I know what you are thinking. But look at Yuri..."

kindness!?

Simon Grayson looked up in shock and looked at Kslov in the stadium again. He found that the Russian with golden retriever dyed down his head and was held in Jonny Hausen's arms, and his emotions... seemed to be wrong!

At this time, Simon Grayson hadn't thought much, but ten minutes later, Simon Grayson knew the bad things...

Arsenal scored another goal!

Sack made a cross from the left. Ramsey grabbed the point from Kslov and pushed the ball into the upper left goal of Leeds United... 3:2, Arsenal completed the reverse!

In this goal, Kslov even fulfilled his basic responsibilities as a central defender. His movements were slower and he watched Ramsey finish the header, but he was unable to make any scramble.

After seeing this scene, Simon Grayson immediately made a decision to substitute. He asked Portuguese central defender Miguel Angelo to replace Kslov. He hugged the Russian young player and returned to the bench, and arranged him to sit next to him.

If it were other head coaches, they might think that Kslov's performance was useless and that he was not a stylist, so they might give up. However, the "brutal Simon" is the best at coaching young players. Simon Grayson discovered Kslov's problem at the first time. When a player is about 20 years old, he often encounters some setbacks that he will never forget for life, which will leave a psychological damage to the young players.

By overcoming this hurdle, you can mature psychologically, players will be more motivated on the road to development and have a broader prospect!

Stepping over... many so-called "geniuses" have fallen!

Today's game is obviously a test that Kslov will face. Barkley's previous goals and Ramsey's current goals have a direct relationship with Kslov. If the Russian young player cannot withstand this blow, his career will be dull from now on.

But what Simon Grayson hopes to see is that Kslov can stand up tenaciously, and have a qualitative leap in his overall strength, and then ride the wind and waves to a higher peak!

This is a test for Kslov. It is also an opportunity!

After the substitution, Leeds United made up the only loophole on the defense line. Although the Portuguese young player is not as talented as Kslov, he wins in stability. This is the most basic quality of a central defender.

Leeds United's defense has improved, and the quality of the offense has also improved. In addition, young people such as Murray, Longs, and Bellacta have begun to know how to use Shaq's protective role. The offense of the "Youth Guards" has become very flexible and threatening, and they finally received a reward when the game was 77 minutes...

In the 77th minute, Murray got the ball on the right and made a cross, but the ball was not sent to the front point or the middle point. Shaq was moving in this area at this time. The German star was very clever to send the ball directly to the back point!

People saw a short white figure running from outside the penalty area on the left, as fast as lightning, rushed to Arsenal's left penalty area and jumped up in the air, rushed in front of right back Valeccho and knocked the ball into the upper left corner of the goal... Alex Lens headed the ball!

"goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

After scoring the goal, Lons yelled excitedly and rushed to the camera of the left corner flag. He roared in front of the camera and grabbed the Leeds United team logo in front of the jersey, as if expressing his loyalty to his mother team, and his tender face looked ferocious and domineering!

All competitors couldn't help but jealous of Simon Grayson's good luck at this time, because they all saw that a star who would not be worse than Jonny Hausen, Ben Parker, and Ashley Hood was rising!

The performance of young player Lens was already amazing before, but whether a player can contribute to the team in key games is the most critical criterion for measuring a player's value to the team.

3:3!

This score also became the final score of this "top battle". Leeds United, who played away, led twice. After being equalized twice by the home team Arsenal and overtaken, the rising star of the "Young Guards" emerged, giving the "Gunners" the most fatal blow, shattering the opponent's desire to win.

But for the "Young Guards" I don't know whether this game is joy or sorrow...

Sixteen-year-old Lance showed his star-level performance and had a bright future!
