Chapter 205 Scoring three goals in a row and beating the blue fox

"Alexis Sanchez!"

BBC commentator Lineker looked at Sanchez, who opened his arms to celebrate the goal, and said loudly: "Two goals in three minutes helped Arsenal lead the score 3-2 away. If they can take all three points at the King Power Stadium, Arsenal will lead the way. Manchester City topped the league table for the first time in 1 days!"

Perhaps considering this factor, the Arsenal players on the pitch were extremely excited.

Kanter looked at Martin who was running towards Sanchez with a depressed face. He thought that stealing the ball at Cazorla's feet would give the team an excellent counterattack opportunity.

Unexpectedly, Martin had already taken precautions. He appeared on the stealing route as soon as he stole the ball, and he still shoveled and passed, completing a rapid right defense and transition.

"too strong!"

This is Kanter's first real sense of Martin's strength.

The fanatical atmosphere at the King Power Stadium dropped to the lowest state, and the Arsenal fans in the visiting team's fan area were ecstatic, seized the opportunity, and uttered hysterical loud shouts to vent the ecstasy brought about by the overtake score.

Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger also raised his arms in the air to celebrate the lead.

Although he knew that the current score was not the score at the end of the game, he still couldn't restrain his excitement.

After a lapse of 645 days, they returned to the top of the league table!

Xinying Sports commentator Jin Xiangkai looked at the whole process of restoring the wonderful goal and couldn't help admiring: "There is no doubt that without Martin's accurate prediction, Kanter's steal can help Leicester City complete a quick on-the-spot counterattack. It was Martin's timely interception that turned the troubled Arsenal from a counterattack to a counterattack against Leicester City!"

The Manchester City midfielder De Bruyne, who watched the live broadcast of the game, sighed, obviously guessing that Arsenal would probably reverse and beat Leicester City in the away game.

Arsenal did not rely too much on Martin's offense in the previous few games, which means that Martin completed the overtake before he exerted his strength.

What if Martin frequently 'shows his face'?

It will be a hearty victory!

For this former teammate and friend who has grown extremely rapidly, De Bruyne knows how terrifying Martin is.

He can not only guard the gate alone, but also turn the tide at a critical moment.

Based on what De Bruyne knows about Martin, he knows that the opponent must have greater potential to tap.

I have a strong hunch that not being able to continue to be a teammate is a great regret in my career.

Manchester City coach Pellegrini shook his head. He thought that the five-game winning streak at the beginning of the season would continue, but he did not expect to lose to London teams West Ham United and Tottenham.

If Arsenal end up beating Leicester, his side will be relegated to the second place.

Manchester City is now investing more and more, and the boss has higher and higher requirements for results.

Once the team's decline continues, there is a high probability that they will be fired early.

But things have come to this, and we can only pin our hopes on Leicester City, which is playing at home.

His team can be overthrown by West Ham United at home, and it is reasonable for Arsenal to be defeated by Leicester City as a guest, right?

……

The game restarted, Leicester City went from leading to falling behind, and the players were hit hard.

But they are professional players after all, with good mental quality and quick physical and mental adjustments.

In addition, this wave of players in Leicester City is very strong, especially under the careful training of Ranieri, the characteristics of each player are perfectly displayed.

Make the most of your strengths and avoid your weaknesses!

Otherwise, the miracle of Leicester City will not be staged this season.

However, with the influx of Martin, a traveler, the miracle that originally belonged to Leicester City has undergone slight changes.

Wenger made targeted deployments to Leicester City before the game, and Martin also conducted a detailed personal analysis of this team capable of performing miracles, otherwise he would not have played against Kanter, who is the strongest defensive part of Leicester City. Here's how to break the game.

In Martin's view, whether it is a 442 formation or a 4231 formation, the real threat to Leicester City still comes from Kanter.

The defensive predictions are accurate and decisive, and the transition from defense to offense is never sloppy.

The passing and receiving of the ball is mainly based on simplicity, and the game tactics arranged by Ranieri are fully implemented.

Therefore, in the following games, Martin used Kanter's pre-judged steals to complete counter-steals many times, helping the visiting team Arsenal to counter-attack.

It is a pity that Walcott and Sanchez failed to seize the opportunity, otherwise the score would be expanded in less than 10 minutes.

The Leicester City fans at the King Power Stadium screamed wave after wave, and they didn't even think about booing.

They have only one thought now, that... is that Arsenal slow down the pace of attack.

Perhaps feeling the aspirations of the home fans, Martin, who controls the rhythm of the game, really consciously lowered the rhythm.

Of course, Martin wants to relax the nerves of the Leicester City players, so as to achieve a relaxed and explosive effect.

Continuous strong attacks may be able to penetrate Leicester City's defense, but there is also a certain possibility that Leicester City will withstand the pressure and use the impact of Vardy and Mahrez to create murderous intent.

Martin has a clear view of the situation, so he consciously confuses the home team players by reducing the pace of the game.

Ending a wave of symbolic attacks, Schmeichel easily hugged Cazorla's long shot from outside the penalty area.

Thinking that the team has been facing Arsenal's offense and his teammates need time to breathe, Schmeichel consciously patted the ball in the penalty area, and threw the ball to captain Morgan before the goalkeeper's time limit for holding the ball came.

As everyone knows, this is exactly what Martin wants to see.

Leicester City's scoring methods mainly rely on grabbing the start and quick counterattacks, but the positional offense is a shortcoming.

Through layers of advancement, Leicester City finally moved the football to Arsenal's defensive half.

Drinkwater has strong organizational skills and solid passing skills, but his ball control is one of the few shortcomings.

Single defense can also perform well, but once faced with double-teams, problems are prone to occur.

Wenger naturally noticed before the game that Ranieri also knew about this problem.

Therefore, when Drinkwater takes the ball to organize, Kanter will escort him, or when Drinkwater encounters strict marking, Kanter will complete the tactical role of quickly transferring the ball to the wing.

In the core of Ranieri's tactics, Drinkwater is the hub of offense and defense.

But as the league came to the seventh round, he found that Kanter was more suitable for the job.

It's just that Kanter needs to be responsible for the defense in many cases, and his defensive ability is indeed very strong, which leads to the outstanding tandem effect being ignored.

Leicester City's offensive ability is relatively weak. After a quick pass, the football quickly came to the feet of Mahrez on the right.

A very special presence in Ranieri's tactical system.

Regardless of ability, the particularity is the same as Barcelona's Messi and Real Madrid's Ronaldo.

There is no need to defend, and more energy is put on offense.

The performance of Mahrez, who received the football, soon caused a huge chants from the home fans at the King Power Stadium.

The near-perfect club and good dribbling rhythm make his dribble smooth and look very elegant.

He doesn't have the absolute speed of Robben, but he has solid inside cutting skills. The slight disadvantage is that he lacks Robben's firm inside cutting.

Using continuous rhythm changes, he passed Monreal and Flamini one after another on the right side of the attack. Facing Koscielny's frontal block and had no intention of shooting from a long distance, he passed the ball to Shinji Okazaki who responded. .

After another two-foot pass, the football came to Drinkwater's feet, and he quickly passed the ball to Albrighton on the left through Kante.

Mertesacker used his strong body to squeeze into his position and easily pushed the ball out of the penalty area before Bellerin made up the defense.

Martin observed in advance and used his strong body to block Shinji Okazaki behind him while facing his own goal. Then he used the arch of his right foot to make a horizontal pad, and the football flew to Bellerin who ran out of space on the left.

Bellerin stopped and took a trip, looked up and then passed the ball to Cazorla.

Cazorla, who eats a sting and grows a wit, observed Kanter's position in advance. Although they were still far away from each other, he still quickly handed the ball to Ramsey.

But Ramsey's stop was far from the body, and it was too late to adjust.

Kanter, who is extremely accurate in defensive prediction, directly put Ramsey on his body, staggered on his feet, and completely lost control of the football.

Ramsey raised his hand to complain about Kanter's foul, and Paulson patted his left arm, indicating that his shoulder bumped his shoulder, which was not a foul.

Kanter, who grabbed the football, immediately passed the ball to Drinkwater, who ran out of the middle to ask for the ball.

It is also one of Drinkwater's technical characteristics to plug in and participate in the offense.

Drinkwater moved forward with the ball and faced Flamini with a spike from the inside of the instep of his right foot to the left. He then handed the ball to Albrighton on the left in line with the next step. Unexpectedly, he was extremely explosive. Martin suddenly pounced on him without warning.

For a moment, Drinkwater panicked.

His reaction was not so unpleasant, and he immediately connected to the smash and changed direction.

However, Martin's foot speed was faster, and he poked the ball out before Drinkwater smashed it.

Kanter, who has the important task of protecting the football offensively, had a prediction, so he rushed up the moment Martin stole the ball.

Martin, who stole the ball forward, took advantage of his explosive power to catch up with the football in lightning speed. Facing Kanter's frontal interception, he first used the inside of the instep of his right foot to buckle the football to the left front.

Martin's naturally raised right foot avoided Kanter's tackling foot very thrillingly, and his left foot stepped forward alternately to buckle the ball in the direction of his body.

Fried meatballs!

Kanter subconsciously raised his legs and hooked his feet half a beat later, and only kicked into a ball of space.

"Wowowoooooo—"

The exclamation of Leicester City fans sounded over the King Power Stadium.

Ranieri, who was standing in the coach's command area of ​​the home team, shrank his pupils and realized that the situation was not good.

Kanter is the most important part of the team's defense!
Martin is currently not good at advancing with the ball. After passing Kanter, he directly made a long pass with his right foot in the middle about 20 meters from the center line.

The football rising from the ground flew obliquely to attack the right rib.

"Nice getaway, long pass!"

Xinying sports commentator Jin Xiangkailang said.

The screen covering more than half of the stadium was broadcast by the on-site director.

The extremely fast Walcott crossed the center line at a speed visible to the naked eye, threw off Huth, who was closer to the bottom line, from the outside of the center circle arc, and approached Martin's long pass at high speed.

Schmeichel, who was standing on the penalty area line, thought about abandoning the goal and attacking, but he thought of Walcott's extremely fast speed, and before the game, the head coach Ranieri also mentioned that Martin's long pass is characterized by an obvious landing. slow down.

It seems to be close to the goalkeeper, but it is actually beneficial to offensive players who have a speed advantage.

as predicted!

The ball slows down significantly after it hits the ground, like Walcott 'waiting' to catch the ball.

Walcott, who was running at full speed, pushed Martin's precise long pass forward for more than ten meters, and continued to run without losing speed.

"Single knife!"

Sky TV commentator Andy Gray chanted.

"wuwuwuuuuu——"

Harsh boos resounded through the audience, but it did not affect Walcott, who was at full speed.

Touching football again, I have come to the front of the penalty area on the right.

Walcott slowed down slightly, adjusted his pace, and entered the penalty area.

Facing Schmeichel, who is only now ready to attack, he chose to stick to the ground, which is a test of footwork.

Little Schmeichel looked at the ball and felt a cold in his crotch, and it was too late to close his legs.

The football running close to the ground rolled over first, crossed the goal line, and crashed into the snow-white net...

The score displayed on the scoreboard also changed from 1:2 to 1:3.
