Pampas waist

Chapter 193 Red and White NO.14!
"Nice job Momo!"

“Perfect acting lol!”

"How does it feel to score for Arsenal for the first time?!"

"Great, hahaha!"

The cheers of the fans echoed in the sky, Henry and the others laughed and rubbed their heads, and the corners of Chen Mo's mouth reached to the ears, and he was extremely excited.

"Look at how excited Arsenal's players are now. They took the lead in just 7 minutes. This is definitely a dream start for them, and this goal is also very important for Chen Mo!"

"That's right, since he joined Arsenal, Vieira's position has been withdrawn and he has surrendered most of his organizational power. Although the little guy's performance was still very impressive before, he has never scored a goal. This But it is a time bomb. Now when Arsenal's record is good, it will not explode, but once Arsenal's winning streak is terminated, he is likely to become the target of public criticism, but now! He has fully proved his offensive talent in the Champions League! Tsk tsk, huh, now that I think about it, his passing at the top of the arc just now was not fancy, but it just gave people a burst of excitement."

"Hahaha, when it comes to this, I think of Leo Messi, the most shining supernova in La Liga this year. After he was helped by Barcelona coach Rijkaard this season and became the main force, he immediately conquered Nocan with his amazing performance. All fans of Pu, especially in the two-day home game against Sevilla, [-] times in a single game! The entire Sevilla defense line was completely overwhelmed by him, Ronaldinho and Eto The trident formed by Ao suddenly turned into a sieve, which is really terrifying, and his extraordinary movements give me a feeling similar to that of Chen Mo, they are all extremely simple rhythm changes and acceleration bursts, often just blinking his eyes, he will The breakthrough has been completed!"

"Hahaha, I was the one who commented on that game. It was indeed extremely exaggerated. The top talent visible to the naked eye shocked my partner Romero's jaw. Haha, you can't guess how exaggerated his expression was at that time And ah, some fans may not know that Chen Mo and Messi actually grew up together, or to be more precise, the two of them have known each other since they were fetuses. It is said that they even have prenatal education It’s the same book I used, so it’s not surprising that there are some resemblances now.”

"Yes, but I feel that the frequency of Messi's feet is faster and more stable, and he can pass several people in a small area, while Chen Mo prefers the feeling of opening and closing, and needs to rush like this time to play. Maximum effect."

"Normal, Messi is 1.7 meters zero, Chen Mo is 1.8 meters six, the height and physique of the two determine that they are destined not to be the same type of player. Okay, that's the end of the digression, let's go back to the game ... I believe that the score fell behind in the first 7 minutes, and it was still a home game. This situation is definitely not what Manuel, the coach of the Yellow Submarine Villarreal, wants to see."

"Yeah, that's why I said at the beginning that they wanted to play against each other and it was a bit crazy. They are in Group E this time with Arsenal, PSV and Panathena in the Greek first division. , the situation is not good, but the top two in the group will be able to qualify, so in this case, I think they should set their main goal as completely suppressing Panathena, and try their best to play against PSV Eindhoven, a mid-range team in the Eredivisie. Take points from yourself, instead of going head-to-head with the super Arsenal who have been unbeaten in 45 games, you must know that the group stage depends not only on the outcome but also on the goal difference!"

"Yes, yes, and more importantly, morale. This is the first time they have entered the Champions League, and it is also the first Champions League group match at home. If the loss is too ugly, it will definitely affect the morale of the team. There will be a mentality of [the UEFA Champions League is so terrible], so the follow-up games will be troublesome!"

"Hey, let's see how coach Manuel will make adjustments in the future. See whether he will defend firmly and try not to lose more goals, or try desperately."

The rules of the UEFA Champions League group stage are somewhat similar to those of the World Cup group stage. Three points for a win, one point for a tie, and no points for a loss.

Defend, or continue to attack? !
The defense must be replaced, but it's only 7 minutes!

On the sidelines, Manuel looked normal, but his brain was tangled. He is not a famous coach. He only started to be a coach in 94, and he had been coaching the River Plate team in Argentina before coaching Villarreal in the 0304 season. There is absolutely no on-the-spot experience facing top competitions!
Manuel was very entangled, but the reality did not give him time to think. Soon, Arsenal's celebration was over, Chen Mo stroked his black hair like a chicken coop, trotted back to the field, and passed by Sorin who was panting with his hips on his hips.

"You are a good person."

"."

What a good man!

Sorin was speechless, his eyes widened, and he said fiercely: "Wait, if you dare to take the ball in front of me next time, I will definitely destroy you!"

What a tsundere.

The retreating Chen Mo secretly rolled his eyes, shrugged his shoulders with a smile, even though he had already jumped up for the second time when the opponent put in the shovel, he would not be shoveled, but Sorin lowered his toes to prevent the spikes from hurting people. caught in his eyes.

An honest man who was forced to get involved in a power struggle, Chen Mo pursed his lips unconsciously. He had a much better opinion of Suo Lin in his heart, but he didn't pay attention to it for too long.

Soon, as the referee blew the whistle, Villarreal served in the middle circle. As before, Chen Mo immediately stuck to Riquelme immediately after the serve, but this time, as soon as he made physical contact, he found that Things are a little different than before.

Riquelme no longer hides and walks, but hard steel, fight him physically!
"The fighting spirit has become stronger?"

Feeling the pressure from the opponent's right shoulder on his chest, a flash of excitement flashed in Chen Mo's eyes, and he squeezed more vigorously, but at this moment, Riquelme suddenly unloaded his force, then passed the ball back to the defender, and immediately moved Footsteps looking for space.

The sudden weightlessness made Chen Mo a little uncomfortable, but he quickly adjusted his focus and continued to keep up with Riquelme.

Because Manuel did not adjust his tactics, Villarreal was still playing offensive football at this time. The three midfielders behind Riquelme except Josico dragged at the end to act as a defensive midfielder, and the other two players Sorin and Senna's positions are relatively forward, and the midfield four is still a diamond-shaped position at four points.

It's just that Riquelme's range of movement is obviously much larger than before. He goes up and down, and keeps running to change positions with Senna and Sorin, looking for more suitable opportunities to get the ball.

But it is a pity that each of Arsenal's three midfielders is a defensive gate. Essien holds the ball on the left, Vieira holds the ball on the right, and Chen Mo holds the ball at the back. When he pushes forward, Arsenal's regular triangle midfield position will become an inverted triangle position. Vieira plays a single midfielder, Essien's position is further improved, and Chen Mo retreats a little. Block the passing lane forward.

In the midfield, there was no way to get rid of one-on-one, the ball was pressed forward, and the ball from his teammates couldn't come in, but Riquelme didn't give up and kept moving.

Time passed bit by bit, and more than ten minutes passed quickly. During this period, Arsenal also had several midfield steals, but Villarreal had more midfielders and was very active in counter-robbing. Arsenal Several counterattacks on the spot were launched without success, and the whole situation began to fall into a stalemate.

"It's a pity. If Villarreal had another player who could send the ball, they wouldn't be so uncomfortable now."

"That's why fewer and fewer teams use the classic attacking midfielder. The classical attacking midfielder needs the ball too much, and the whole team must serve him, so most of them are equipped with some bodyguard players, but Now the physical fitness of the players is getting better and better, and they are paying more and more attention to defense. Except for Zidane's physical fitness, which is completely higher than the midfielders of other organizations, players who can hold the ball and protect the ball in the densely populated frontcourt, other classical forwards The waist can barely survive."

"Yes. Hey, how about letting Riquelme retreat? Just like AC Milan's Pirlo, Pirlo just didn't have enough physical strength to get the ball easily in the defensive midfielder position. Moved the position back and now it works really well.”

"You think it's good, but Pirlo and Riquelme's characteristics are completely different. Pirlo's long pass is more accurate so he can retreat, while Riquelme is more inclined to take the ball in the frontcourt to attract the defense and send short. Pass the scalpel straight through. And to say that Villarreal fans don't like to hear it, but it is very realistic, that is, AC Milan's overall lineup is much stronger. Not to mention anything else, AC Milan can let Gattuso alone People lag behind and put more midfielders in the frontcourt to join the attack, but Villarreal can't do this. Neither Sorin on the left nor Senna on the right can't press too high , because they have to help take care of Josico, who is in the midfielder position, otherwise Hosico is likely to be pierced directly when facing the retreating Henry alone.

This is why I have always emphasized that Villarreal has problems at the tactical level. Their wing players are not good and they can only play in the middle, but it is very difficult to complete the kill from the Arsenal midfielder who is in a good posture.It is more suitable for them to defend and counterattack, hand over the possession of the ball, based on defense, and then catch Arsenal's offense and fail to complete. When the offense and defense transition is not yet stable, the moment when the players are not in a stable position can cause damage, rather than looking at it now. It seems that the ball possession rate on the scene is not inferior, but in fact they are all useless and dangerous backcourt ball possession, and Chen Mo's one-stop goal after the steal just now has proved that their ball possession is not perfect , the more you take the ball at this time, the more dangerous it is! "

"Indeed, ball possession rate is a double-edged sword. When a player is extremely capable, it can form a crushing situation, but if the player is not strong enough, then... because the ball-holding party is often in an offensive position, it is very easy to be intercepted by the opponent. Go straight through the defense after the ball."

The commentators go on and on, what they understand, the coach understands better, but
"One wrong step and one wrong step!"

On the sidelines, Manuel stared at his big bloodshot eyes, scratched his head in pain, how could he play a defensive counterattack after one goal behind? !

What if Arsenal wants to win the game by defending the advantage of this goal, and they don't attack after their own team retreats?
Now we are already behind, and the mentality of the players is a bit unstable. If we continue to change tactics at this time.
【Has the coach figured out what tactics to use? 】

As long as the players have such a mentality, it will be completely finished!

Manuel felt extremely uncomfortable, the back of his head was almost bleeding, and at this moment, the situation on the court suddenly changed!

Senna, who was in possession of the ball in the left midfield, slanted his foot to find Riquelme in the front midfielder, but the next second, the ball was intercepted by Essien with a sliding tackle!
Without the slightest hesitation, Essien directly swept the ball to Chen Mo in the midfield. The latter stretched out his right foot to meet the ball and pushed it hard, sticking to the ground!
The high-speed topspin ball directly crossed Sorin's outstretched right leg and slid to the area between Villarreal's back line and midfielder. There, it was Henry who retreated!

The instant transition of offense and defense, the two-foot pass was extremely fast, and the midfielder Josico didn't react at all. When he turned around, Henry had already taken the ball to face the central defender Alvarez!

Seeing this, Alvarez had no choice but to go up, and at this time, Henry, who was at the top of the arc, swung his right foot directly, and the ball passed through the gap between the left center back and the left back and sent it into the penalty area. Kill the line, rush to the ball and push the ball directly!

"Boom!"

The ball was shot quickly, but unfortunately, Henry passed the ball too fast. The old Bergkamp had already come to the right side of the goal when he received the ball. Barbosa's right leg pops off the baseline.

Arsenal corner.

Seeing that his defense line was pierced by Arsenal's counterattack in an instant, Manuel no longer hesitated, and immediately called forward Ferran to his side while Arsenal lined up the wall.

"Next, we will play defensive counterattack! Tell others that even if Arsenal does not attack, they will still defend first. There are five games left in the group stage, don't worry!"

"I see boss."

Phelan nodded solemnly, but his face was dignified, but he felt a little relaxed in his heart. They did have a high ball possession rate for nearly 10 minutes just now, but the ball couldn't be sent to the frontcourt at all. As the team's strongest scorer, Haven't touched the ball for 10 minutes!

Taking advantage of the fact that Ferran did not enter the wall for a while, Manuel continued to tell him about the tactical layout.The two were very involved, but they didn't notice that under the watchful eyes of more than 2 Villarreal fans, a big head wearing an Arsenal warm-up vest suddenly moved behind them.

"Wow!!! What do you want to do!"

"Oh! That Frenchie is eavesdropping!!!"

"Can't let him succeed!"

A lot of empty bottles fell down for a while, and Giroud's head was hit directly by Pepsi, scaring him to shrink his neck. When he raised his head again, Manuel and Ferran were already glaring.

"Hey. Road.. Passing by"

"Referee!!! Referee!!!"

Manuel became angry and went directly to the referee to protest. The Villarreal players on the bench also rushed out in an instant.

There was a sudden commotion on the sidelines. Seeing Giroud being chased and scolded by a group of Villarreal players, Chen Mo, who was behind the defense near the midfield, was a little confused, while the commentary seat seemed a little happy.

"Hahaha, eavesdropping on tactics, this little guy really figured it out, it's Giroud, right?"

"Yes, Olivier Giroud, a French high center forward who joined Arsenal at a super-low price of [-] euros this summer. He has played as a substitute three times in the previous five rounds of the Premier League, but he has not scored or assisted. He was sent to the second-tier team to find a feeling. I guess Mr. Wenger added him to the squad today, and it was the Champions League match again, so he was a little impatient."

"Maybe, hey, it seems that the referee was very merciful and didn't show the poor little guy a yellow card, just a verbal warning. Okay, that's the sideline episode, let's look at Arsenal next. How about the corner kick this time, eh? Chen Mo didn't go into the wall, he went to the center circle to defend against the counterattack."

"Yes, he is 1.8 meters 1.8, but heading is not his strong point, and the one who replaced him into the wall was [-] meters [-], and the center back Campbell who has an excellent header. Hey, I can only say that Chen Mo's versatility. Mr Wenger has many more tactical options."

"Yes, yes, Pires is going to take the corner."

The commentator babbled, but Chen Mo didn't pay attention. He just watched Pires run up to the corner kick. At the same time, he watched Ferran beside him from the corner of his eye. Essien was marking Riquelme diagonally ahead.

"Boom-"

Soon, with a muffled sound, Pires took a corner kick. The ball passed a rainbow in Chen Mo's eyes and hung it towards the right post of Villarreal. Vieira and Campbell jumped high, but None of them hit the header!
The ball was directly confiscated by the goalkeeper Barbosa. In the next second, Barbosa did not hesitate, and directly kicked his big foot to find Riquelme in the midfield!
"Don't try to get the ball!"

Essien tensed his back muscles and stuck Riquelme behind him, staring wide-eyed at the flying ball, but in the next moment, the power behind him and the front of the head disappeared, his center of gravity was unstable, and Essien's body was shaken Shaking, but he is not tall, and quickly stabilized his balance, but at this moment!

"HOOOOOOOOO!"

Under the watchful eyes of all the fans, Riquelme, who had been pushing Essien hard, suddenly relieved his strength, then turned around and came directly in front of Essien, who was unstable in the next second, using the forefoot of his left foot as the axis. , Facing the 20-meter long pass, Riquelme supported Essien with both hands behind him, stretched out his left leg, and met the ball with the instep.

"Bang~"

It was a very subtle sound. In the eyes of Vieira who was chasing back, the moment the ball landed on Riquelme's instep, it didn't even rebound a little bit, just like a ping pong ball falling on the water. Hesitating, the ball stuck to the instep of his left foot, turned around instantly like a compass, and at the same time exerted force with his thigh, and sent the ball forward with his left foot!
"Oh! Riquelme got rid of Essien!"

"He got the big space! He drove the ball forward!"

Like a sudden torrential downpour, one second Arsenal was still taking a corner kick, and the next second Villarreal seized the opportunity to attack!

The commentator roared, and all the Villarreal fans stood up in an instant, looking excitedly at the man who dribbled the ball along the middle, and at the same time as they were excited, Forlan next to him pressed into the back line for the first time, and at any time Waiting for Riquelme's through ball!

Not only him, but on the other side, center Jose Mari also pushed into the back line. The two pressed Chen Mo and Toure on the back line like nails and couldn't move!

"No offside!"

Riquelme's speed is not fast, but the through ball is extremely accurate, and the offside is likely to be self-defeating!
With no choice, Chen Mo retreated sideways at the first moment, cutting off the connection between Riquelme and Fran, his eyes fixed on Riquelme's feet that kept waving the ball. At this time, he could only hope that the chasing Essien can steal the ball from Riquelme's feet!
Things were exactly as he expected. Riquelme's dribbling speed was not fast, and there was no support point in the frontcourt. He was quickly chased behind by Essien, but his dribbling was very stable. Putting pressure on, the ball just can't drop, and the speed doesn't slow down!
"If you don't foul, you can't stop!"

Seeing that the goal was getting closer and closer, Essien no longer hesitated, his eyes became ruthless, and he hit Riquelme directly from behind. Riquelme, who was not strong, was directly hit by him and flew at a low altitude!

"beep--"

The moment the two collided, the referee blew his whistle, and before the Villarreal players could put pressure on him, he immediately walked up to Essien and showed him a yellow card!
"It's a pity. If Riquelme was faster with this goal, he would have a good chance to score."

"Yes, but it's not a loss to get a free kick from [-] yards and a yellow card from Essien. You must know that this is not a Premier League stadium with intense physical confrontation. If you move too much, it is very easy to get a card. I guess Ah, Riquelme may be looking for Essien one-on-one."

"Indeed, this is a very critical yellow card. Well, let's see how to take this free kick. This position has a direct chance for a free kick master like Riquelme."

The commentator babbled, on the field, Essien blamed himself, and looked at Riquelme standing next to the ball with a pair of big eyes with some anxiety. The current situation can be said to be that he was beaten one-on-one by Riquelme If the opponent scores a free kick now.
Standing with his crotch covered, Chen Mo felt Essien's uneasiness, smiled and patted him on the shoulder, showing his big white teeth: "Don't worry, it's just a yellow card, at worst, I'll run more later to help you share the defensive pressure .”

His tone was relaxed, his smile was gratifying, and he felt kindness. Essien's mood was much more stable, and he pursed his lips and showed a smile that looked like Joey Yung: "Thanks, buddy."

"Haha, leave it to me!"

The two whispered, and soon, following the referee's whistle, Riquelme took a deep breath and stared at the upper right corner of the goal with firm eyes.

"He wants to open the door?!"

Just as a thought flashed through his mind, Riquelme had run up to the ball, opened his arms, swung his right leg and swung the arch towards the ball!
"boom!"

The ball crossed a half-moon scimitar in the air, Chen Mo just jumped up, the next second the ball passed over his head!

"The ball is so fast!"

Still in the air, Chen Mo turned his head to watch for the first time. In his gradually widening eyes, the ball flew towards the upper right corner of the goal, and the goalkeeper Seaman made a save at this time!

"Have it!"

Riquelme clenched his fists instantly when he felt the serious half of the ball route, and in the next second.

"when--"

The ball slammed into the upper right corner of the goal under Riquelme's expectant eyes, and bounced to the right side of the top of the arc, where it landed near Chen Mo!

"Counterattack!!!"

In a blink of an eye, Chen Mo started immediately, swung his long legs and rushed towards the landing point. At the same time, a black shadow at the same speed was also running towards the ball on the left corner of his eye!

"Fran! He's closer!"

Seeing Fran running wildly from the left front and the ball falling in front of him, Chen Mo gritted his teeth while running wildly, his thighs tightened, his left leg kicked vigorously with the front sole of his left leg, and his right knee was lifted up. In the next second, Riquelme Under the horrified gaze, Chen Mo flew directly into the sky!

"My God! This jump height!"

"What a terrifying physical fitness!"

The commentary was instantly excited, and the audience exclaimed. Under the tense gaze of Wenger stretching his neck, Chen Mo hit the ball before Fran, and swung to the left the moment the ball touched his head!
Looking back at the moon!

"boom!"!
The wet black hair flicked, and the touch from the forehead feedback was very good. Under Chen Mo's gaze, the ball bounced to the middle, exactly where Essien was!

"Grab the second spot!!!"

Vieira in the penalty area let out a terrifying roar, and one second before he let out the roar, Essien had already sprinted with two big black legs, facing Hosico who was rushing diagonally, without the slightest hesitation, he bit Clenching his teeth, he tensed his right arm and slammed into it!

Bison Rush!

Extremely barbaric!

"boom!"

As soon as he turned around and landed on the ground, Chen Mo, who was on all fours, heard the sound of muscles colliding. The next second, he raised his head. In his eyes, Hosico, who was 1.8 meters tall, was directly knocked into the air by Essien!

"foul!"

"He fouled!!!"

The Villarreal players yelled for the first time, but the referee ignored them and just fell forward with one hand.

One-half the ball, the offense is favorable!

"My God! There is no foul on this ball!"

"Counterattack is coming!!!"

The roar of the commentary shook over the Love Song Stadium. Under the watchful eyes of more than 3 spectators, Essien got the ball without the slightest hesitation. The shadow that had been on the back line for a long time burst out in an instant!
Thunderbolt!

Central defender Alvarez had just turned his head, and Henry had already moved two positions away from him!

The wet red and white NO.14 jersey danced in his eyes!
And farther away in his eyes, goalkeeper Barbosa has already abandoned the goal!
"My God! Barbosa is crazy!"

"He's not as fast as Henry!"

The commentator shouted excitedly, Wenger walked to the sidelines and stretched his neck expectantly. In the blink of an eye, Henry had already got the ball on the left side, and the next second goalkeeper Barbosa also flew in front of him.

"Don't even think about going there!"

The ball is about to hit the ground, and Barbosa can't control that much at this time, he directly puts the shovel, and the path of the shovel is exactly where the ball lands.

"Can't wait for the ball to hit the ground!"

In the blink of an eye, Henry stared at the ball that slid to the back of his right waist, Henry clamped his right leg backwards, and gently faced the ball with his heel.

"Bang~"

The crisp sound rang in the ear of Barbosa who was shoveling, and the next second, under his horrified eyes, the ball slid across the air and landed steadily in front of Henry without the slightest hesitation, facing the falling ball , Henry pushed the arch of his right foot directly!
L-shaped stick cut!

The ball slid across a straight cold front on the lawn and rolled into the net, and following the ball into the net was the chasing central defender Alvarez!
"Thierry! Thierry!! ThierryYYYYYYY·HeNNNNNNnry!!! Game No.401 minutes, Arsenal scored another goal!!! The score came to two to zero! It was Thierry Henry who scored the goal! Oh! Look, Look!! What a wonderful little rainbow! This shot is a work of art!!!"

"This is Henry! This is, the King of Highbury!!!"
