The Premier League arsenal, the king of thermos cups

Chapter 126 FA Cup Reading
Zhou Yang sat on the chair.

Wenger's big rotation today is to give everyone enough rest and recharge their batteries.

He is not affected, his physical fitness and recovery ability are completely fine, but his teammates can't.

Today's FA Cup match, whoever wins Reading and them will enter the final.

The opponents in the final are between Aston Villa and Liverpool.

Reading's main struggle in the Championship is relegation.

In contrast, there is still a huge disparity.

If today they are all the main players who want to play in the European Premier League, they will have a very good chance of winning, and even win by a big score.

Welbeck, Wilshere, Walcott
Midfielder Rosicky, Flamini, Ramsey.

Gibbs, Koscielny, Gabriel, and Chambers on top of the guard.

Goalkeeper Szczesny.

In the first half of the schedule, they were all the main players.

Although compared with the current lineup of this group of people, their combat ability is lacking, but it is not bad. Compared with other teams, especially the British Championship, the gap is still large.

Reading averaged less than 1 goal per game this season, their firepower is very average, and they are still in the British Championship. Normally, if you want to win Reading, the most important thing is to play suppression.

Hitting the weak team to exert pressure can minimize the firepower of the weak team.

Poor firepower on the opposite side makes the offensive end of the opposite side worse.

But today Reading, it seems that because they came off the bench here, they played very hard.

The FA Cup is also a rare honor for Reading.

But they can be regarded as the main force in the first half of the schedule, and they are rich in technical talents, so they are still remarkable in the field of offense.

Soon after 16 minutes, he scored a goal. After Flamini took the ball and passed it to Rosicky on the left front, Rosicky sent his right foot to Ramsey who was on the right. In came a long-range shot directly, the ball hit the net, and hit the goal from the lower left corner. Reading opened the scoring 1-0 away.

But 2 minutes later, Reading tied the score with an offensive push.

The opponent dribbled the ball into the penalty area, Gabriel made a header error, and the ball fell to the feet of Reading player McLeary. He took advantage of the trend and Szczesny couldn't make a save. Reading quickly equalized the score 1-1.

This is the advantage of opening and closing, and there are enough people to follow up when attacking.

In the 38th minute, Walcott made a pass from the bottom, and the opposite side went out of bounds and got a corner kick.After the corner kick was taken, Mertesacker headed the ball, but it was a pity that he was thrown by God.

It didn't take long for Rosicky to put his right foot into the penalty area. Ramsey followed up and grabbed the header, but it was too high.

The threat of Ramsey in the penalty area is indeed among the best on the court.

Every time someone dribbles the ball in Zhou Yang's mind, he has calculated several ways to give the ball.

But no one thought as much as he did.

After that, neither side made any threats.

There are still problems in running-in, and it all depends on the individual ability of the players.

At the end of 45 minutes, they temporarily tied Reading 1-1 in the first half.

Halftime enters the break.

In the second half, the game started as scheduled, and the two sides still played back and forth.

There are still problems with the running-in of this lineup here, and the cooperation is not smooth enough.

In 58 minutes, Wenger made a substitution adjustment, Wilshere replaced and Giroud replaced.

Thinking of the news about Wilshere smoking in front of the media in the past two days, Zhou Yang also felt a pity.

Wilshere always played well after coming out of injury, and then started stumbling and playing again, waited until he was injured, then stopped for a few months, and came out to play well.

Not long after, Reading Obi went down the wing and came out with an inverted triangle. In the melee, Welbeck touched a kick in the penalty area and wanted to attack, but it was passed out and was followed up by the opponent to accept the big gift package. Reading 2 to 1 Arsenal accept.

Reading couldn't score a single goal per game in the Championship, but today they beat Arsenal twice.

There is really a problem with the lineup of this group of people.

Soon after 70 minutes, the score between the two sides was still 1-2.

Wenger made a second substitution adjustment, Rosicki replaced and Sanchez replaced.

The game continued to walk slowly, and it didn't take long for Welbeck to take the ball near the penalty area, but was tripped by the opponent and got a free kick a little ahead of the penalty area line.

Sanchez takes the free kick.

Sanchez can play this kind of close-range free kick, but recently Arsenal's free kick has seriously stalled.

Kicking a free kick, among other things, it feels very important. There are fifteen or six heads in the penalty area, and the feeling is coming. If you kick it with good footwork, you can see whether there is a threat.

Sanchez stands near the penalty area.

76 minutes free kick, the referee sent a whistle.

Whoops!

Sanchez stepped forward and hit the goal with his right foot, looking towards the upper left corner of the goal.

The speed of the ball is very fast, and a free kick from close range flies past!
The ball is here!

Arsenal 2-2 in the FA Cup semi-final.

This free kick is very good.

He is still suitable for all kinds of moving things. Only when everyone moves can he show his potential.

After the tie, everyone clenched their fists in celebration.

Because of the tie, at least there is a chance no matter what, after all there is still time for overtime.

The FA Cup championship must also be vigorously fought for and won as much as possible. No team will give up the championship, but the choice is different.

"I think besides Cazorla and Sanchez, you can also take free kicks." Arteta smiled.

No problem with his footwork.

But there are many good footwork, why should he be a villain.

Soon after the game reached 80 minutes, Wenger made a third substitution adjustment, with Flamini replaced and Zhou Yang replaced.

It is impossible to say that giving up is impossible.

The FA Cup championship can be won as much as possible, but Wenger will not work too much on the main force so as not to affect Juventus and Chelsea.

Reading's offense here today is open and closed. A British Championship relegation team can fight so hard today, which shows how attractive the FA Cup is to them.

After going up, Zhou Yang didn’t play too fast every time he took the ball. Reading opened up and closed today. Seeing them playing fiercely on the bench, he wanted to make a fuss about the bench. Naturally, Zhou Yang would not be too much in this regard give a chance.

As soon as he got the ball, Zhou Yang leaned to the right.

Sky Sports Live.

"Reading has pulled back."

"Zhou Yang is doing activities on the right, putting too much pressure on him. Reading must shrink the offensive line and come back to defend."

"Zhou Yang directly played with Walcott and Giroud on the right, and the opposite side either destroyed the ball or waited for them to move into the penalty area."

"Giroud, Walcott, Zhou Yang, they are active again on the right side."

Seeing Zhou Yang staying on the right side so straightforwardly on the opposite side, he couldn't attack too much in an instant.

Because Arsenal often play on the right with ease.

Giroud, Walcott, Zhou Yang, are familiar with the road, and they are instigating their old partners on the right. Chambers only needs to give the ball normally. After all, there is Zhou Yang, and Giroud, Walcott and Zhou Yang has experience in cooperating with the right wing.

This area of ​​Reading is almost full of turmoil and danger.

Had to destroy the ball many times, and repeatedly destroyed the ball after the opponent failed to instigate the threat of going out into the penalty area.

As a result, Arsenal also had more corner kicks.

Either you let us play on the right, give the ball in the box or shoot.

Either you shrink your personnel back to defend, do more damage and destroy our ball.

There is only one purpose for Zhou Yang to do this.

Use the most appropriate way to play their most stable offense here, allowing the opposing offensive line to recover, and at the same time pass through the penalty area, or pass from the bottom line, or the bottom line is destroyed to play what he thinks is the most useful offense.

The opponent is weak in the fight for the top and set-piece defense.

Distressed multiple times in the first half.

Giroud and Ramsey can scramble in attack.

Corner Mertesacker can beat the pack.

90+2, Giroud scored with a header.
