Chapter 1284 Still Difficult
The ball went in again.

Wiping off the rainwater on their faces with their hands, the Gunners feel that they have been drenched by the heavy rain at this moment.

Why did they keep attacking and trying to get in, but the opponent went through the goal twice.

This is really a frustrating thing.

It's a pity that football is such an unpredictable sport. In addition to strength, you need many factors to make up for it.

Of course, what Manchester City showed in this game is indeed much more than Arsenal.

When Manchester City's celebration ended again, it was only 1 minute before the end of the first half, and the referee did not signal that there would be stoppage time in the first half.

Therefore, before the Arsenal team had time to complete an effective offensive advancement after the opening, the referee directly blew the whistle in his mouth.

As the weather has risen to heavy rain, which directly led to the whistle sound on the court is also quite dull.

The fans in the stands didn't even realize it was the end of half-time until teammates from both teams rushed off the pitch.

"Okay, the first half is over, Manchester City made it 2-0 in the rain at the Etihad."

"This is a result we didn't expect. It can be seen that Arsenal still overdrawn a lot in the last round of the league against Fulham."

"That's right, attacking tough positions often consumes a lot of mental and physical strength of the players. This game encountered heavy rain again, and the situation for the Gunners is quite severe."

Zhan Jun's analysis was very objective and accurate. After receiving the towels handed over by the substitute players, the Gunners wiped their bodies and went into the locker room.

Then, the whole team collapsed in their seats.

If the professor hadn't called them to take a shower and change clothes, no one would want to move.

It is difficult to guarantee that the players will not catch a cold or have other problems after the game is over.

In this regard, the professor has no good solution. After all, whether the game is terminated or not depends on the judgment of the referee.

When the referee thinks that the game can continue, you have to continue to play even if there is hail.

"Have you rested yet?"

After everyone changed into clean clothes and sat down, the professor began to speak.

Seeing Wenger's serious face, the Gunners players who kicked 0-2 quickly raised their heads and looked at their coach meticulously, knowing that they had made a mistake.

"I don't think your team is satisfied with the score in the first half?"

"Yes coach!"

"Of course, because you guys played in such a mess."

"..."

Such direct criticism made the scene rather embarrassing, and the team members didn't know how to answer the professor's words.

"Okay, let's look at this next."

Wenger didn't mean to continue chasing and cursing, he just waved his hand to draw the players' attention back.

"In the second half of the game, we adjusted the lineup. Wilshere, Ramsey and Walcott all pulled back."

Adjusting 442 directly to 4312, the professor no longer has expectations for the players to beat Manchester City in the confrontation. He thinks that the most important thing is to stabilize the defense and not lose the ball.

As for the team's counterattack and offense in the future, it is enough to keep Liu Feng and Aguero who can play the ball with one kick and move quickly.

After all, the team's tactics in the second half will change from ball possession offense to defensive counterattack.

……

From the problems in the team's defense to the adjustment of the targets of Squillage and Phil Jones, the professor made a lot of detailed arrangements for the team's formation.

Then the rest of the time was given to the players to rest.

"Bang bang bang, hello, please come in."

When the voice of the Etihad staff came from outside the door, the Arsenal team members stood up again. After resting for enough time, they finally adjusted their state and prepared for the next battle.

"Let's give them some color and see!"

"understand!"

Captain Liu Feng walked out of the gate first, followed by other players, and the morale of the Gunners, which was finally sluggish in the first half, was swept away.

0-2 was not the result they wanted. They changed tactics and formation, but what didn't change was their desire to win.

"Both teams are back on the pitch and the game is about to start again."

During the intermission, the two commentators accompanied the fans to watch a lot of highlights of the first half. In addition to Dzeko's wonderful brace, the Gunners' unfortunate attacks also caused people to sigh again and again.

No matter how you look at it, the Gunners are not without the strength to penetrate Manchester City's goal, so the second half is naturally worth seeing.

"Dzeko and Johnson stand in front of the ball, the whistle blows and the game begins!"

As the ball was kicked out, not long after entering the field, all the players became drowned again.

However, since a half-time has already been played, everyone has completely eliminated the influence of the external environment.

"The midfield controlled the ball, Manchester City didn't make any adjustments to their formation and Mancini had a lot of faith in his team."

Looking at the ball possession chain still composed of four midfielders, Zhan Jun's eyes quickly shifted to the Gunners' half and saw the professor's adjustment.

Before he could say anything, Manchester City's first attack after the opening came.

First, Hargreaves, who was entangled by Gan Suo, gave the ball. After receiving the ball, De Jong quickly advanced through the half-court. Facing the opponent's advance, the Gunners' three midfielders who retreated slowly did not step forward immediately.

This also gave the ball the chance to be assigned to Savage again.

"Savage got the ball on the right, started pushing down the wing and Wilshere finally moved, with him and Gibbs."

Chain reaction and cooperation, Gibbs and Wilshere quickly blocked the opponent's attack.

When Savage realized that he had no need to advance and hastily redistributed the ball in the middle, the amazingly athletic Ramsey took the lead and broke the ball from De Jong's feet.

Just when Ramsey wanted to fight back, De Jong quickly pulled him to the ground.

"Foul! An obvious tactical foul. De Jong made a choice directly after the team's offense was cut off. He just got a verbal warning."

I have to sigh with emotion. Whether it is the position or method of the foul, De Jong chose very well. Even Ramsey, who was pulled down, had nothing to say after getting up.

And this also gave Manchester City a chance to re-arm.

When Gan Suo came to this indirect free kick in his own half, Blue Moon's defense had become airtight again.

Obviously, although the Gunners have made adjustments to kill Manchester City's offense that can be invaded at will, their offense is also targeted by the experienced Manchester City players.

This game is still difficult for Arsenal.
