Chapter 1018 Barely Satisfied
When this round of the league is over, there is very little breathing time left for Arsenal.

The English Football Association, which seems to have a festive mania, closely linked the No.19 and No.20 rounds of the league when they ranked the league.

After this round of the game, Arsenal, who have just played against Chelsea at home, will go away to challenge Wigan Athletic two days later.

Perhaps the only reason Wenger could resist complaining about the competition in front of the media is that their opponents are not too strong.

Because of the arrangement of the match schedule, the team's holiday was naturally gone, and the players didn't have any complaints. They gathered on the field again the next day.

The first team that made their debut yesterday is not in a good state at the moment, and Wenger has nothing to do. He can only choose to let these players undergo some recovery training during training.

Soon, two days passed quietly, and the players even felt that they were about to start the game again before they could catch their breath.

Standing in front of the players, Wenger frowned slightly. In the end, without talking nonsense, he directly announced the team's formation for tomorrow's game.

"Tomorrow we will play 442."

Faced with the weakness of the main players, the professor neatly arranged for a group of substitute players to come on the field: "Bendtner and Maple are paired with two forwards, and Diaby, Rosicky, Ramsey and Denilson are four midfielders."

Liu Feng, who has been resting for nearly two weeks in a row, does not have the same physical problems as other teammates.

"Back four, Gibbs, Vermaelen, Julu and Sagna, goalkeeper Almunia."

The main force is mixed with a substitute defense line. This is the best lineup that the professor can form at the moment. After he announced the roster, he waved his hands without talking nonsense.

"Okay, now you can go back and rest, and gather at the parking lot at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

"Coach received!"

Perhaps it was the cooling-off period after a big battle just now. This time, when the Gunners' bus set off, there were not many fans seeing off Arsenal.

But when they arrived at the away game, the fanaticism of the opponent's fans made the Gunners team deflated for a while.

Now, with the efforts of the whole team, the team's points have gradually been raised to Wigan Athletic, which is about to leave the relegation zone. The morale of Wigan Athletic is booming, and their fans are crazy for the team's relegation.

The league is halfway through, and there are not many opportunities left for Wigan. They have already embarked on the relegation journey early, and they are the kind of team that all teams are most afraid of.

When the game started, the Gunners' poor state gave Wigan Athletic the courage to fight and charge.

With the three players following Liu Feng no matter where he ran, they fiercely attacked the Gunners' gate.

In the 30th minute of the game No. [-], the home team Wigan Athletic created a corner kick.

Rodalega, the team's only striker, headed straight in after their midfielder Nzobia flicked the ball from the corner flag into the penalty area.

With a muffled sound, the ball flew into the goal under the watchful eyes of the Gunners defenders.

Fortunately, after 10 minutes, the Arsenal team, which finally found their own rhythm, also created their own chances.

When Rosicky got the ball in midfield and pushed it all the way into Wigan's midfield, he attracted enough defensive strength to slip the ball to Bendtner.

Bendtner, with his back on his back, made a direct move to pull the ball, and in an instant, Liu Feng, who was defending his own players, followed up with a shot.

"Oh!"

"Shoot the big eagle with a bow, take a long shot, and the ball goes in!!!"

Zhan Jun, who had been frowning for nearly the entire half, finally relaxed following Liu Feng's shot: "In the overall downturn of the team, he will always be the one who is trustworthy."

Believe in trust, when the camera gave Liu Feng a big close-up, people also saw the black and blue stains on Liu Feng's body.

Obviously, Wigan Athletic's tailor-made shark-slashing tactics for Liu Feng in this game have already caused him a lot of damage.

There were no goals in the first half of the game, and the two teams returned directly to their locker rooms after the referee blew the halftime whistle.

Wenger felt helpless looking at the panting players. He thought this game would not be so difficult, and he underestimated Wigan Athletic's determination.

You must know that only one opponent player in the first half has already made three yellow cards, not to mention many fouls on the verge of fouling.

In the end, Wenger had to make a decision to shrink as a whole. He asked the players to protect themselves and have as little physical contact with their opponents as possible.

In addition, he also solemnly talked with Liu Feng, who was always used to grab those knife-edge balls in the first half.

"Feng, I know you are very eager to score goals, but what I want to say is that I care more about your health than those, so stop fighting for those dangerous goals, okay?"

"Eh..." Facing the professor's concern, Liu Feng didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only nod his head to show that he understood: "Good coach."

When the professor's talk ended, the Gunners' locker room fell into a brief silence, and the players hurried to recover.

With a knock on the door of the locker room, the entire Arsenal team stood up again and walked out of the locker room.

"The two sides have reappeared on the court, and the game is ready to start after the halftime exchange."

Zhan Jun continued his commentary as soon as the two teams re-entered the stadium: "Wigan Athletic's morale is still very high. Compared with Arsenal as a whole, it is a bit mediocre."

After the start of the second half, the development was roughly similar to the morale ratio of the two sides. Although the ranking was 451, the home team was not strong in defense, counterattack and offense.

This made the Gunners players struggling to maintain, and in the end they couldn't even organize an effective offense.

Time passed by, and when the game came to No. 70 minutes, Wigan Athletic's coach directly replaced two midfielders who had cards and were also warned.

Then the home team's fierce pressing began to intensify again, and Liu Feng suffered two tackles and a brutal charge in the past 5 minutes.

When the professor saw that Liu Feng was also offended and started to grab every ball regardless of his own safety, he had to quickly make substitutions and adjustments.

Game No. 705 minutes, Liu Feng was replaced, and Rosicky, who was tortured in the middle, went off with him.

Wenger then replaced Alexander Song and Xiaofa, but also kicked 451.

The two teams successfully played the last ten minutes into a hypnotic competition, and the score did not change until the end. However, none of the Gunners players were injured in this game.

1-1, this is a result that both parties are satisfied with, well, barely satisfied.
