Xu Zhu's Successor's Football Journey

Chapter 95 Arsenal's Offensive Wave (2)

The free kick Arsenal got was on the left side of the front of the penalty area, about 25 meters away from the goal. It is easy to score a free kick so close to the goal, so Oakes immediately directed the ball nervously. The team lined up a wall a little behind the penalty area line, and Wang Li was among them.

Both Pires and Vieira stood beside the ball. Pires is Arsenal's main free kicker. He is very good at short free kicks from the left position, while Vieira's free kicks are known for their strength. It is somewhat similar to Roberto Carlos' free kick style.

Seeing that Wolverhampton had already lined up the wall, the referee Willie gave a "beep..." to indicate that free throws could be started.

Pires first took a few steps back, then trotted forward and stepped forward with his right foot. It looked like he was about to shoot himself, and the Wolverhampton players thought so, so they all jumped straight away.

However, Pires did not shoot directly, but he stepped over the ball with his right foot and left the ball to Vieira behind him.

Vieira didn't make a run-up at all. After Pires passed the ball, he directly hit the goal vigorously, and the ball flew past the turf from under the jumping wall!

Oakes was originally attracted by the jumping wall, and he also made a mistake in his judgment, so he didn't react at all. After he saw the ball flying over, it was too late, and he could only symbolically move to the left With a pounce, the ball flew directly into the net from the left corner of the goal!
"Pirres run-up, Oh, he didn't shoot, Vieira! Hit the goal, the goal!! Goal! It's Vieira, it's his strong shot! The free kick was very powerful, very fast, Wu Wolverhampton's goalkeeper Oakes reacted too slowly. In the 45th minute of the game, Vieira scored a free kick for Arsenal! Now the score is 1:2, still Wolverhampton Puton is leading, but they have to be careful, this is Highbury Stadium, the feeling of leading by two goals will be completely different from leading by one goal, I hope they can stabilize their mentality in the next game!" Sky TV commentary Player Graham seemed a little regretful about the goal. He didn't introduce the free kick too much, but he was worried about Wolverhampton. It seems that he still favors Wolverhampton in his heart. team.

In the current Premier League, Arsenal has become the public enemy of almost all teams, even Manchester United has not enjoyed this kind of treatment.Arsenal has been unbeaten for 31 consecutive games. Under such circumstances, it is understandable that various Premier League teams and the media are looking forward to a team that can end their undefeated golden stature. I don't want to be a stepping stone to someone else's success.

…………

Arsenal fans have been waiting too long for this goal!
They waited for 40 minutes for the goal to finally come, and the Arsenal fans burst into the most enthusiastic cheers since the opening!

Arsenal fans have never expected their team to score goals like they do now. They were all provoked to work hard because of Wang Li's insulting goal just now. They expect Arsenal to use their strength to give Wolff Hampton's powerful counterattack!The fans are very vengeful. Wang Li's goal will even be directly written into Arsenal's history of shame by Arsenal fans. At least in 2004, Wang Li will definitely become the most unpopular person in Arsenal one.

At this time, Wang Li, who was standing on the line of the small penalty area, also spread his hands helplessly. Looking at Vieira, Pires and Henry who were celebrating their goals, he felt a little envious.These players all have a very good free kick skill, which he does not have at present. Recently, he is also practicing free kick shooting, but the effect is not very good.Different from strength, speed, and physical training, free kick shooting is an ability that can only be gradually mastered after years of getting used to the feeling of shooting. It is difficult to improve in a short period of time. If you want to become a free kick master , Wang Li still has a long way to go.

After the Arsenal players celebrated the goal, the referee Willy only gave a symbolic stoppage time of 1 minute to end the first half of the game, and the players returned to the locker room one after another.

…………

During the intermission, Little Princess Angela sitting in the Wolverhampton fans stand became the focus of attention of all fans. Many reporters even went directly to the East Stand to interview Her Highness the Little Princess on the spot.

Although the privileges of the European royal family have been greatly weakened now, and even the queen is just a symbol, for most common people, these royal family members are still too far away from their own lives. When it comes to the English royal family, the first The impression is noble and mysterious. In any case, the royal family is also a symbol of a country.

Now, to be able to meet a little princess on the spot, and she is also Queen Elizabeth's favorite little princess, which makes the fans next to her very excited.

Angela's father, the Duke Edward, is the third in line to the throne, so Angela has attracted a lot of attention since she was a child. She doesn't have scandals and bad habits like other princesses, and she looks like **** when she was a child. Very similar, very popular with the queen and Prince Philip, she can be said to be outstanding in the royal family.

"His Royal Highness Princess Angela, are you a fan too? Why are you sitting here? You know, this is the fans stand of Wolverhampton. Are you a fan of Wolverhampton?" many reporters asked. Crowding around the little princess, the reporter of The Times first asked curiously.

Although Angela is usually very self-willed and has a bad temper at home, but in front of people, she shows a very temperament, that kind of natural aristocratic temperament, which makes people feel very natural and noble, "Yes, I am very I love football, I love the way Wolverhampton play, I watch them a lot and today they are in London so I am here."

After hearing this answer, the reporters nearby were in an uproar, but the Wolverhampton fans were very happy. They didn't expect that there would be members of the English royal family who also liked Wolverhampton, and it was Angie. Pull the little princess.

"So, Princess Angela, among the Wolverhampton players, who do you like the most?" The Sun newspaper reporter next to him asked gossipingly.

Angela smiled generously to this question, "I think Wolverhampton's Alan Wang performed very well. As you can see, he performed well in the first half. very good."

At this time, the fans next to him also laughed. Wang Li has almost become the golden sign of Wolverhampton now. As long as he plays the game, he will perform very well, which is obvious.However, Angela's words became big news in the ears of the reporter: Little Princess Angela likes Alan Wang very much. This somewhat ambiguous title is definitely a big deal!
…………

In Wolverhampton's locker room, Dave Jones was tense, arranging tactics for the second half.Although he is very satisfied with the team leading Arsenal in the first half, he cannot relax his vigilance if he wants to win. What's more, the team has been in a passive situation throughout the first half, and the two goals are almost all. It was scored by personal ability, and it also had a lot of luck. Therefore, in the second half of the game, no player had to use 120% of his efforts to win at Highbury Stadium.

In February, there were only three rounds of the Premier League. Dave Jones really liked the title of the best coach of the month, and as long as he could end Arsenal's winning streak, he would definitely make him stand out. , Dave Jones has always enjoyed it.

"In the second half, the main thing is to do a good job of defense. We must defend the first 10 minutes. In the opening game, Arsenal will definitely launch a fierce attack, and we must not relax our vigilance at all times. Miller, you are still at the front. Alan, you have the opportunity to go forward. As long as it lasts for 10 minutes, Arsenal's offense will definitely ease. At that time, the two sides will have to make more breakthroughs. Arsenal's midfield defense is not strong, and we still have many opportunities. "

"Cameron, in the second half, when you participate in the defense, your position is slightly forward. Remember, you are a forward, not a defender!"

"Lyle, you replaced Newton in the second half and played left midfielder. You have to participate in the defense more, and you must prevent Pires from breaking through. When necessary, you can choose to foul directly."

……

Wang Li, who was standing at the end of the crowd, watched Dave Jones scribbling on the tactical board, but felt strongly dissatisfied with him in his heart.

From the last game, including daily training, he found that the head coach seemed to be deliberately downplaying his role in the team.Although he also started this game, his position was higher, which made him almost a standard center forward in the game, and he had almost no other role except for finishing the goal.

Especially in the team's new tactics, although it is said to be a 4321 formation, it is essentially a 4311 formation, and his position is more like an invisible man.Originally, Cameron's current position should be his. No matter in terms of tactics or personal ability, that position is more suitable for him, and he has already proved his strength in the game. Dave Jones did this, so that Wang Li Can't think of a reason, he can only think that the head coach is targeting him.

'Drop the ball forward when you have a chance?I'm not a cornerback.And there is only Miller in the frontcourt, isn't the long pass a waste of opportunity? 'Wang Li thought secretly.
