Chapter 69 If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight (1st update) (page 12)
online:
[Football is always so unexpected, maybe that’s why I like it. 】
[This is the real derby, everything I saw before was all fake. 】
[Arsene Wenger’s Arsenal always felt like something was close. When I saw Tottenham counterattack to equalize the score, I seemed to know what was close but I still didn’t seem to understand. 】
[The front court is picturesque, but the back court is boring... except for Xia Qi, no one can play. 】
[It’s hard to compete for four, but it’s hard to win the championship...]
On the Internet, fans are very critical, even though the score between the two teams is even.
But the situation was that Tottenham smashed Arsenal's right wing.
If Arsenal hadn't had Xia Qi, I really don't know how they would have been bullied.
Arsenal dressing room
Wenger had a cold face. The lofty ambitions he had accumulated from previous consecutive victories were wiped out in the first half.
Thinking of the stronger opponents in the Champions League knockout rounds, Wenger's idea of buying players in the winter window to make up for his shortcomings became even stronger.
The players saw that he was silent and thought he was angry. The game was tied with one more player. Indeed...
The atmosphere in the locker room suddenly became extremely cold.
Sagna and Cazorla were even more dejected and hid at the far edge of the locker room.
After Wenger recovered his thoughts, he unexpectedly praised the performance of Cazorla, Vermaelen and Sagna.
"Walcott! You come on in the second half."
"..."
Wenger took the lead in adjusting the lineup.
Tottenham dressing room
Villas-Boas severely criticized Holtby, and then praised other players one by one, especially Bale.
His breakthroughs from the left smashed Arsenal's right into a sieve.
The intermission is over,
Villas-Boas found that the opponent's formation had changed, and the playmakers Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey were replaced respectively.
Then replace Walcott and Chamberlain.
The lineup seems to be still 442, but who is the organizer of the frontcourt?
Is it Arteta or Xia Qi?
Seeing that it took him several late nights to come up with a solution, but it was resolved so easily, Boas felt very unhappy.
He cursed secretly: "It will squeeze the star players. Where is the promised tactician?"
“观众朋友们欢迎大家回来观看2012-2013赛季的英超第11轮比赛,由阿森纳主场对阵热刺,现在是下半场的比赛。上半场双方打成了2:2平。”
"At halftime, coach Wenger took the lead in making substitutions, with Theo Walcott and Chamberlain replacing Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey..."
“In the first half, Wilshere had little performance under Tottenham’s tight defense. Wenger replaced Walcott and Oxlade-Chamberlain with faster impact.
Not only to defend Bale and Lennon, but also to let the two rush the opponent's defense.
Arsenal's current question is, after Wilshere comes off the field, who will take charge of the frontcourt organization?
Is it Xia Qi or Arteta? Both of these two have played in the organizational midfield before, and I am very much looking forward to seeing Xia Qi play as the ninth and a half again..."
Beep!
The second half has begun!
Spurs' possession of the ball.
Dembele passed the ball to Parker, and Tottenham's midfielder immediately rushed forward.
Xia Qi and others immediately dispersed and rushed towards them.
Bell received Parker's pass and was immediately flanked by Xia Qi and Walcott.
Bell's superiority is mainly due to his difference in speed and rhythm, but these two advantages are also Xia Qi's advantages.
There are calculations but no tricks.
No hang-up - mid-game loss!
The football was handed to Walcott by Xia Qi.
Double flanking successful!
Cheers of victory immediately erupted from the Arsenal stands.
"Arsenal should have played like this a long time ago, and they would not have been beaten in the first half."
"Wenger must have his intentions. We can all see the problem, and he must also be able to see it. If he doesn't correct it for a long time, he must have his thoughts."
on the field,
Walcott got the football, and Xia Qi crossed forward. The two of them crossed and exchanged positions.
Xia Qi came to the right wing and picked up the football.
As soon as the football arrived at Xia Qi's feet, Dembele was like a robber blocking the road, blocking Xia Qi's path.
Bell was not willing to lose the ball and chased Xia Qi from behind.
Be prepared to fight tooth for tooth,
Give Xia Qi a double attack!
However, Xia Qi did not give Bell a chance. Faced with Dembele's obstruction, Xia Qi took the football to the middle.
Seeing Xia Qi trying to "escape", Dembele immediately kicked off his legs so hard that a piece of the turf flew away.
However, Xia Qi suddenly braked suddenly at this moment!
Use the toes of your left foot to stop the rolling football, then push it to the inside of your right foot. When the football rolls, your right foot will move forward to the right.
The body suddenly stopped and turned at the same time,
Since passing by Dembele, the two have swapped positions.
At this time, Bell arrived and stretched his legs to poke the football. Xia Qi pulled the ball to avoid it. Bell immediately defended closely, but he overestimated himself a little.
Xia Qi stepped on the football and did a pirouette. When he turned around, he used his butt to push Bell out of the sideline.
Bell didn't expect Xia Qi to do this, nor did he expect Xia Qi's hips to come with such great power.
He was caught off guard and fell upside down towards the billboard on the sidelines.
The CEO of the company on the billboard smiled crookedly on the spot.
"Xia Qi horse race slalom, Bell fell out."
"There was no foul and the referee signaled for the game to continue."
The referee's decision made Tottenham fans particularly unhappy, and they booed the referee desperately.
The Arsenal fans burst into laughter. They cheered and applauded Xia Qi.

【Flying Pig Barkley! Iron butt magic! 】
[I feel sorry for Bell for a second. After this game, Paper Man’s nickname can no longer run away. 】
[Obviously, the senior brother is giving way to the second senior brother. The brotherly love is deep, do you understand? 】
[The Great Sage just wants to earn some advertising fees and make money playing football. He is the smartest one. 】
On the pitch:
Bell's pressing was not completely useless.
He bought time for Dembélé.
Dembele came around from the inside and continued his promising "robber" job.
This time, he learned the lesson and no matter what fake moves Xia Qi made.
Du Tong turned a blind eye and kept a safe and reasonable distance from Xia Qi, guarding against the inside but not the outside, blocking Xia Qi from the outside.
"As long as I don't steal, I won't be fooled. As long as I can guard the inside, it's a success. Dembele's defensive thinking is very clear."
"It's okay to defend like this! Xia Qi's shooting skills are useless. All that's left is passing. To drive Xia Qi to the baseline and compress Xia Qi's space, Xia Qi's role will become smaller and smaller. Dembe Lay’s defense was successful.”
On the pitch:
Xia Qi was eventually forced close to the baseline by Dembele.
