Chapter 99 Art Football?who but me! (Available April 4st!)

"Hi everyone, friends from the audience, welcome to watch this heavyweight match!
"This is the Emirates Stadium, today is the semi-final of the FA Cup,

"Arsenal vs Leicester City!

"If you are a fan who doesn't pay much attention to English football this season,
"Doubts may arise?

"What kind of heavyweight game is the match between the Premier League giants and the English Championship team?

"Hehe, if you think so, you're really wrong.

"Leicester City this season is no ordinary Championship team!

"In the previous knockout rounds of the FA Cup, they beat Manchester City and Chelsea tenaciously!
"Two of the top four in the Premier League have lost!
"Leicester City definitely has dark horse potential!

"Before the game, Wenger also said that he would take this game seriously.

"You can see that from the formation of Arsenal today.

"They sent an absolute star group of main players!

"Goalkeeper Szczesny,
"The back four Gibbs, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Sagna,

"Double midfielders Arteta and Ramsey,

"Three midfielders Podolski, Rosicky, Cazorla,

"Single striker Giroud.

"On the bench there are Chamberlain, Sanogo, Bellerin, Monreal, Flamini, Koscielny and others.

"This lineup configuration is definitely Wenger's best card now.

"It looks like they want to take Leicester City in one fell swoop for this game.

"On the Leicester side, they also played at full strength.

"Goalkeeper Schmeichel,
"Four backs De Laet, Konchesky, Wes Morgan, Liam Moore,

"The four midfielders James, Xia, Drinkwater, Mahrez,
"Twin strikers Vardy and Konokite.

"Leicester City adjusted several starting positions in this game,

"James is back in the starting lineup,

"But this time he came to the left side, replacing xia's position,
"I don't know what is the purpose of Pearson's adjustment this time?

"Let's wait and see!"

At this time in the locker room of the home team, Wenger is making the final explanation.

"The way Leicester played Manchester City and Chelsea,
"Nine times out of ten they will use the same counter-attack against us.

"They even took out high center Chris Wood,

"Let the dexterous Konokite start alongside Vardy,
"It seems that they want to go all out to take advantage of the counterattack,

"We must seize the opponent's loopholes in this game,
"Try to score as soon as possible, protect the midfield,
"Don't give the opponent a chance to fight back,
"Remember, after losing the ball, you must fight back on the spot!"

In the visiting locker room, Pearson's instructions were much more succinct.

"After stabilizing the defense, we will boldly press up!
"Arsenal's midfield defense is definitely not as good as ours,
"They can't stand our attack!
"As long as we score first, the game will enter our rhythm!"

Players from both sides ran out of the tunnel and onto the court.

The referee whistles and the game begins!

"Consecutive multi-footed passes in the frontcourt, taking advantage of Leicester City's defensive formation has not yet fully expanded,

"Almost scored a goal!
"This offense started with Rosicky and ended with Rosicky,

"The final shot was also fantastic, just a little bit off.

"This is the favorite scene of countless fans!
"Leicester City must endure this game!"

The opening wave of pass control made the Leicester City players break out in a cold sweat.

I rub!

So silky smooth?

There were a few passes that the Leicester City players didn't even expect their opponents to make that choice.

I didn't expect it, how can I defend?
But they know that this is just the beginning.

Throughout the next game, they will face such a smooth cooperation.

The ball flew off the baseline against the crossbar!

Arsenal miss out again...

Nevertheless, the Emirates Stadium applauded again!
"Another fantastic attack from Arsenal!

"This pass and control is more beautiful than in the beginning!

"Consecutive passes, except for one effective interception by Xia,
"The other players didn't even have time to react!
"That's the difference between the top clubs in the Premier League and the champions of the Championship!

"Simply not too big!
"And even if Xia got the ball, Rosicky quickly made a precise pass!

"Although Giroud's shot didn't go in, the volley of turning around was very stretched!

"Playing at this pace, I'm sure Arsenal are not far from scoring!
"In today's international football, many teams are known for their delicate passing and control.
"Barcelona is far away, Manchester City is close by,

"But if compared to the artistry and gorgeousness of the style of play,
"I think Arsenal are number one in the world!

"Now, the Gunners are doing great again and telling everyone that -

"Artistic football, who else but me!"
