Chapter 418 This is the Premier League!

In this game between Manchester United and Arsenal at home, the imagined battle did not appear. The game fell into a very strange circle from the beginning. The players on both sides played too cautiously on the court. Many opportunities that could play would directly choose to give up as long as there was a chance of accidents.

The result of this was that in the 45 minutes of the first half, neither Manchester United nor Arsenal were able to achieve their usual level in offense. Even Manchester United’s signature character Yang Xiaozhuang only completed 4 shots in 45 minutes. If it were normal, he might have scored 4 goals in this first half!

The game was quickly passed in a stalemate between the two sides.

"Uh! Both teams only played the Champions League group stage three days ago, which is also the rhythm of the weekly doubles this season just started. The state of the two teams has been more or less affected. So today's first half, the players on both sides were not very excited."

Many bigwigs who are following this game have whispered their lips after hearing the commentator...

Nonsense!

Nonsense!

The reason why this scene happened in this game was simply because Emery formulated a set of defensive counterattack tactics for the Gunners.

Arsenal's single arrow is Lacazette, but the French shooter's speed is relatively average, which is the case with Manchester United's defense. Moreover, although Lacazette completed two shots in the first half, this is also all the shots of the Gunners in the first half, and it is not very threatening.

In the midfield, Juan Mata, Ziyech and Ivobi, who transferred from Paris Saint-Germain to Arsenal, are not the type of person who can tear open the opponent's defense line by themselves, and the support they provide to Lacazette is also very limited.

With double midfielders Zachar and Wilhel have made no contribution to the team's offense. They must do their best to defend with their own defense, otherwise... Although Manchester United has only five players in the midfield and frontcourt, it is also very dangerous!

So in this game... Arsenal did a very good job in defense, but he really did nothing on offense!

Perhaps, for Emery, it would be a very good result to be able to defend a draw at Old Trafford!

But... in the face of the "Red Devil", who dares to really say that he can defend himself!?

And those who really understand can see that the reason why the "Red Devils" who played at home in the first half failed to make their own crushing attack was not that they did not have this ability, but because... they did not exert their strength!

Manchester United's wide attack was indeed a bit not sharp enough in the first half of today, but this is also because their two full-backs never pushed forward, and they don't know how Solskjaer arranged it!

Anyway, once the two full-backs of Manchester United rush to assist, Manchester United's offensive quality will definitely improve a lot, and the offensive style and routine will become diversified!

I don’t know what the reason Solskjaer is for, and he didn’t let his team attack his opponent in the first half, but... Manchester United will definitely become different in the second half!

How could Manchester United not want to win at their own home court?

In the second half, the "Red Devils" will definitely make efforts!

This is true. During the halftime break, Solskjaer could no longer suppress his thoughts. In the first half, although the team's offense was a bit weak, the team's advantage was still very obvious, but only the advantage... that was not enough!

Advantages must be transformed into victory...to score goals to win!

Before, Solskjaer could suppress his thoughts. He always felt that if he waited, maybe the team would score a goal?

It’s not a bad thing to be able to win the game steadily!

However, it is obvious that Arsenal has made sufficient preparations in this game today. They have a very tight formation when defending. Even if they include the goalkeeper, they have maintained at least 40 minutes of their first half for at least 40 minutes.

Such a defense level...that's just an iron barrel formation!

Faced with such a tight defense, although Manchester United's midfield and frontcourt attack power is strong, if they want to tear open the opponent's defense line to create a real scoring opportunity, the five players... are indeed not enough!

Since that's the case... then reinforcements!

Standing in the home team's locker room, Solskjaer looked at Manchester United players and said: "Young men, Arsenal is determined to defend this game. We don't have many troops to attack in the first half. In the second half... the full-back, the left and right sides will take turns rushing up! Score the goal first, and then continue to attack. Don't stop the rhythm of the offense before locking in the victory!"

Can't stop!

Must not stop!

Since you are planning to make efforts, then set the victory in one fell swoop and secure the victory!

Once Manchester United exerts its offense, it is really not something Arsenal can withstand, or it should be said that it will be difficult for any team to withstand Manchester United's offense by relying on defense!

In the 55th minute, Joe Reilly rushed from the left to the frontcourt assist, and passed the ball directly to Arsenal's left penalty area. Martial ran back from the left penalty area to receive the pass, but he was very clever and did not leave the penalty area.

At the moment of stopping the ball, Martial was in the penalty area, but his foot stopped the ball outside the penalty area line. Then he pulled the ball back with his left foot and let the ball pass through between his legs. After the man turned to the right, he turned around and scored the ball.

Arsenal right-back Rick Carlsdorp, who is responsible for defending Martial, is too close to Martial. The Dutch international wants to directly push Martial out of the penalty area, but was then divided by the ball.

However, Karlsdorp still secretly pulled Martial's clothes as he ran over him.

result……

Martial did not fight against his opponent at all, and did not stabilize himself in front of him. Instead, he threw the center of gravity and rolled to the ground towards the lawn on one side.

"Beep———————”

The referee ran up with a whistle, communicated with the sidelines with a wireless headset, and then played it back through the high-definition camera on the scene, and then... stretched out his finger and pointed at the penalty spot!
