Chapter 892

Amidst the shouts of the Southampton fans, Southampton, who re-kicked off, began to continue to launch a possession attack.

Ball-holding offense requires patience and constant scheduling. During this process, there should not be too many extra thoughts, otherwise, more flaws will be exposed in ball-holding tactics.

And because the possession of the ball requires a high position to press and compress the space, so in the game, there are always a lot of gaps behind the team in possession of the ball. If there is a mistake, it is often fatal.

Incomplete possession of the ball is tantamount to no possession of the ball at all.

This is also the reason why Southampton took so much time to adapt this season, because Ji Ya added an extra core to the original ball control, so the running-in time will naturally be longer.

Of course, such a price will also have fruitful results. Now Southampton's possession of the ball will not reveal any flaws.

So in the following time, Arsenal began to endure wave after wave of attacks from Southampton.

This is not a constant impact like a raging wave, but a tension and a relaxation, always launching an impact when you are relatively weak.

After a failed attack, they can often get the ball again, and then attack again.

Arsenal wanted to launch a counterattack, but Southampton did a good job of controlling the field and did not give the opponent any chance.

When Southampton's ball-handling offense is rigorous, it makes people so helpless, but now their ball-handling and passing will be smoother, making it even more difficult for opponents to defend.

After suppressing the opponent for more than ten minutes, Southampton finally surpassed the score again before the end of the first half!

The retreating Du Yue and De Bruyne made a two-for-one cooperation, and then distributed the ball to the right. Cancelo, who advanced to assist, received the ball and passed it diagonally into the penalty area. The ball was drawn in the air. An arc crossed Arsenal's defenders, and Grealish, who was inserted in the back row, met the falling ball while running, and it was a head shake...

The angle of the header was actually a bit off, and it wasn't too close to the goal. However, Grealish hit a header lob while running, and the ball flew directly to the back of the goal. Gulac, who was before the block, turned around to reach, but was already a step too slow, and could only watch helplessly as the ball flew into the far corner of the goal!

Two to one, Southampton once again took the lead at home.

There was warm applause from the stands. From the perspective of Southampton fans, the Southampton game has begun to enter their accustomed rhythm, that is, constantly attacking with the ball, which can always create a lot of threats. come out!

Facing Arsenal can still complete such suppression, which is enough to prove that Southampton has indeed entered a mature period from running-in, and now it is time to start harvesting!

Although Southampton is still quite far away from the top of the list, under such circumstances, it is still enough to make Southampton fans excited.

Firstly, there is still a chance in the league, and secondly, in the Champions League knockout round in the second half of the season, wouldn't Southampton be more confident?

Six consecutive championships, the first place in the Champions Cup consecutive championship record, no matter how you think about it, it makes people feel extremely exciting.

"The performance in the first half was good! To be honest, your performance reminded me of Barcelona back then. It was so disappointing! As long as we continue this performance, then we will be able to make the rest of the team this season. All of my opponents feel such powerlessness! Do you understand?"

The players nodded one after another. The first half of the game really made them play very well. While suppressing the opponent, they didn't give the opponent any chances, and they didn't even feel too tired...

It's an incredibly enjoyable racing experience!

And at the moment in the visiting team's locker room, Emery has nothing else to say. He can only continue to emphasize the need to strengthen the offense in the second half and try to score more goals to win the game.

The midfield control is indeed inferior to the opponent's. This is something that Arsenal has long been mentally prepared for, but it can't be like the last ten minutes of the first half. In 208 minutes, Southampton was attacking, and I had no chance to attack!

Of course, everyone is a professional player, and they all know that Southampton's upper limit of ball possession is just like that. It is impossible for them not to give Arsenal a chance in the second half, as long as Arsenal can seize the opportunity better. , then there must be a chance to equalize the score, or even score more goals.

With such emotions, players from both sides played.

However, Arsenal, who wanted to launch an offense, encountered a new blow as soon as the second half started.

In a fight, Bellerin and Grealish got entangled, and then Bellerin fell to the ground, and after being checked, he was carried off the field-he was injured, although it was not serious, but the game was no longer possible. kicked.

Emery, who has completely given up, replaced the injured Bellerin with Lacazette!

Everyone knows that Lacazette is a center forward. If he plays, Iwobi will return to the position of the right midfielder, and the attack from the wing will start to be handed over to the two full-backs.

This kind of attack is purely going all out, which makes Arsenal fans very happy-after all, at this time, even if they lose, it can't be too shameful. Will make Arsenal fans happy.

After all, judging from Southampton's possession of the ball in the first half, Arsenal's chances of winning are indeed not high, but if Arsenal just withdraws their defense and is passively beaten, they will lose everything. If they insist on attacking , It can also guarantee Arsenal's morale and fighting spirit.

From this point of view, although Emery succeeded Wenger, he did not change Wenger's general policy. This is also the key to Arsenal's ability to maintain the spirit and heritage of the giants!

Arsenal then launched a wave of onslaught-in the face of a desperate Arsenal and Southampton, Southampton can only take it back temporarily.

Arsenal created a chance after the continuous passing. Mkhitaryan sent a direct pass after receiving the ball. Lacazette's lateral running involved part of the defensive attention. Aubameyang received the ball in the small penalty area. Time kicked and shot, Mendy fell to the ground in time, blocking Aubameyang's close-range shot!

When the Southampton fans in the stands screamed, Southampton quickly completed a counterattack. Valverde shot from the right and was blocked by the defender. De Bruyne took a corner kick. Maguire, who advanced and assisted, grabbed the first spot in the melee and shook his head to attack the goal. The ball missed the near post slightly.

"The pace of the game seems to be picking up in the second half!" the commentator shouted loudly.
