Chapter 442 Jiang Yuan scored at the Bird’s Nest! In the player tunnel, Chelsea players were greeting Cech. Jiang Yuan was very interested in this former Chelsea goalkeeper, but Cech left when Jiang Yuan transferred from the two of them didn't know each other. "He's very powerful, you have to be careful" Hazard put his hand on Cech's shoulder with difficulty and spoke to Jiang Yuan. “I’ve heard of it” Jiang Yuan stretched out his hand, and Hazard added to Cech: "This guy's shot is also very powerful, I feel you can't save it" "Oh!" Cech spread his hands: "I am just older, but not old. I can still stand here, so I am not old, ok?" Cech turned to look at Jiang Yuan: "If you want to shoot, you'd better choose a better angle, otherwise I will save your ball!" "Oh!" Jiang Yuan took a step back: "I will try my best"
…… Arsenal (3-4-2-1) Goalkeeper: Petr Cech Defenders: Monreal, Mustafi, Koscielny Midfielders: Kolasinac, Xhaka, Ramsey, Bellerin Forwards: Iwobi, Lacazette, Welbeck Head coach: Arsene Wenger Arsenal had two main players in today's game, Sanchez and Giroud did not start. Sanchez didn't start because Wenger wanted to give him a rest. And Giroud because he is losing his starting position. This summer, Arsenal brought Lacazette to London for a transfer fee of 5300 million euros. This finisher, who is also from France, brought a new way of attack to Arsenal, which is also the reason why Giroud is gradually not reused by Wenger. "Chelsea played aggressively in the first few games, but we can see that when facing teams like Roma and Arsenal, Chelsea played more cautiously overall." "That's right, and Chelsea and Arsenal are old rivals. Wenger is very familiar with all the teams in Chelsea." "Well, I think it's hard to say, because Chelsea has a new coach this season. Mourinho is very familiar to Wenger, but Tuchel is relatively unfamiliar to Wenger." "Let's see if Arsenal can withstand Chelsea's double-sided explosion!" Facing the strong opponent Chelsea, Wenger did not make any targeted tactical adjustments. It’s still the 3421 from last season, but I don’t know what kind of changes Wenger is going to make! "Go, go straight ahead, don't hesitate!" Tuchel shouted loudly, signaling William to dribble the ball boldly. William made some small mistakes in decision-making, and his hesitation when breaking through was seized by Iwobi, who ran up to stop William. Fortunately, William had a good sense of the ball. He hid the ball behind himself and then made a fried meatball to create space. The core of the fried meatball is the translation of the center of gravity of the upper body, but William's fried meatball is a beggar's version, and his upper body does not have much range of motion. There is no choice but to pass the ball! The ball was passed to Christensen who came up from behind to receive the ball. Christensen stopped after receiving the ball, then passed it straight to the front, and William ran up again.
Chelsea's classic one-two combination on the wing often produces unexpected results in football matches. It's a pity that this is the Premier League. Arsenal had already guessed what Chelsea wanted to do. Kolasinac locked onto William in advance and shoveled the ball out before William got the ball. "Oh!" The fans sighed and held their heads, and Jiang Yuan, who was ready to respond on Chelsea's left, was also helpless. Pity. but…… Eh! Jiang Yuan discovered something and slowly walked towards the middle. Walker threw the ball out from the wing, and with the help of Hazard, the ball came to Kante's feet. Look ahead before you take the ball. Kante immediately saw Jiang Yuan rushing in between Ramsey and Koscielny, so he adjusted himself and decisively sent a straight pass to the front court. This was a piercing shot from Kante, the ball was passed at a very fast speed. Along the way, Xhaka and Ramsey tried to tackle the ball, but neither succeeded. Give it to Jiang Yuan! "wowwww!" "This is a near one-on-one opportunity. When did Jiang Yuan run to that position? Now Jiang Yuan and Mustafi, who was protecting him, are standing on the same horizontal line!" "Single Blade, can you run out?" The commentator and the home team fans all hoped that Jiang Yuan could seize this opportunity, and Jiang Yuan certainly thought so too. He raised his right hand and placed it over his chest. Body collision! Grass! Jiang Yuan felt a little uncomfortable when he felt the muscles on Mustafi's upper body, but he had no choice but to continue running inside. If Jiang Yuan doesn't run now and wait for Koscielny to return to defense, he will have no chance! Jiang Yuan and Mustafi ran towards the goal almost at the same time. Now they had entered the outer edge of the penalty area. Jiang Yuan wanted to take off the chewing gum on his body, but he couldn't move Mustafi. There is no other way but to try to get a penalty. "Jiang Yuan kicks!" "Shoot! Hey, it's a fake move, Jiang Yuan pulled the ball back and switched to his left foot!" "There's a lot of pressure in Arsenal's penalty area now, Mustafi, go and block it!" "Jiang Yuan moved sideways to the left. He was actively blocking his shooting angle!" Chelsea fans had lost hope after seeing this scene. Jiang Yuan's shooting angle was almost completely blocked. As a result, Koscielny was so smart that he just pulled Jiang Yuan's arm with his hand. I'm sorry! "He fell down in the penalty area, referee! What did the referee say?" "Anthony Taylor, this referee is not so friendly to Chelsea, take a look" "Penalty! It's a penalty!" Anthony Taylor raised the yellow card in his hand, and the Arsenal players immediately ran up to argue, while Mustafi stood there and started swearing at Koscielny.
"Fuck, the position is already stuck, why are you committing a foul?" "There is a shooting angle. He has a shooting angle. I can see it!" From Koscielny's perspective, Jiang Yuan did have a shooting angle just now, which is why Koscielny was anxious. He just wanted to try to interfere, but Jiang Yuan just fell to the ground! Jiang Yuan was holding the ball and thinking near the penalty spot. Azpilicueta ran up from behind and covered his mouth: "Hit the right side" Azpilicueta and Cech are old teammates! right…… Jiang Yuan took a deep breath and took the initiative to look into Cech's eyes. This guy said before the game that if Jiang Yuan wanted to score, he had to do it in an absolute blind spot. Then hit the absolute blind spot! "Run up and shoot!" "Right, Cech guessed Jiang Yuan's direction correctly!" "The ball went in, Jiang Yuan pushed it at a very good angle!" "Cech couldn't reach it!" “1:0, Chelsea scored first!” Chelsea players ran out from the top of the arc, Cech jumped to the right, and Azpilicueta was a little embarrassed. But in the end the ball went in, which is a good thing that needs to be celebrated! "jesus" Wenger put his hands in his jacket pockets with a serious expression. He was a little dissatisfied with the performance of Arsenal's defense, and even more dissatisfied with the penalty decision made by the referee Oliver. Damn, aren’t you the Chelsea Killer? This is a penalty kick! The sudden fall behind in the 17th minute forced Wenger to make tactical adjustments, while Sanchez, Elneny and Mertesacker began to warm up. I have to say that although Wenger is old, he is still quite capable. Apart from Jiang Yuan's penalty kick, Chelsea didn't find any decent offensive opportunities in the entire first half. Koscielny made up for his mistake after giving away a penalty, and cooperated with Bellerin to restrict Jiang Yuan's breakthroughs on the wing many times. The final score of the first half was 1:0. When the scores were close, the 15 minutes of halftime break were particularly important. This is a battle between Tuchel and Wenger! "The defense on the wing is very dense and deep, so it is difficult for Jiang and William to find opportunities in this situation." "So how do we solve this? I'll give you two ways." Tuchel held up a finger and said: "The simplest thing is to ferry back and forth between the left and right sides as fast as possible. The speed of your long pass must be faster than the speed of their defensive players' transfer, because only in this way can we get a temporary numerical advantage." He raised his second finger: "Another thing is to continue to strengthen the wing attack, the full-backs continue to move forward, and only Kurt is left behind to protect."
He looked at Zuma who was sitting opposite him and said, "Little Kurt, I don't know why they call you Little Kurt, but you have to know that you are very big. You can defend those forwards on the opposite side. Do you understand me?" "It's easy to make mistakes when returning to defense. What I mean is that even if you don't participate in the offense, you still have to help with the defense." Tuchel gave instructions to Zouma. The Frenchman's defensive position was the last among all the outfield players in the team. Apart from long passes, it was difficult for Zouma to directly help the team's offense. In this case, Tuchel decided to turn Zouma into a pure defensive central defender. "Oh, I know" Zuma nodded somewhat disappointedly. When I dream, I always think of myself making a wonderful long pass to Jiang Yuan in the backcourt. What a pity, he really doesn't have this talent! Tuchel finished his tactical emphasis and then walked to Jiang Yuan: "If you feel discomfort in your calf again, listen carefully, any discomfort, as long as there is any discomfort, you need to signal me immediately, even if the score is behind at the time, ok?" Tuchel is no fool. He can still tell the difference between winning one game and winning every game. On the other side, on the visiting team's bench, Wenger briefly talked about the problems he saw in the first half, and then asked his assistant coach to speak in the middle. Compared with the changes Tuchel made in the midfield, Arsenal gave up the idea of changing tactics. The opponent only scored one goal in the first half, and it was a penalty kick, which shows that tactics are not the main problem. Chelsea this season is not as terrible as imagined! …… "Welcome back, dear audience friends, this is the second half of the Premier League match between Chelsea and Arsenal!" "Chelsea has a substitution, Alonso replaces David Luiz!" "Tuchel is still relatively conservative in the defender's substitution" "Arsenal, Arsenal has no intention of making any substitutions!" "Hiss, I feel like Arsenal's intention is to start to exert their strength after 60 minutes. That's what some teams did when they played Chelsea last season. I know you're very aggressive in attacking from the wing, so I'll let you attack for 60 minutes to burn off your energy." "It is indeed possible, because judging from the situation in the first half, Chelsea's ability to create opportunities was slightly poor today." The two commentators had a brief discussion, and the next second Chelsea players suddenly started to take action. Pogba retreated to the penalty area and asked Walker for the ball. His flexible movement perfectly solved the problem of passing the ball from the backcourt. Long pass or dribbling forward? Pogba chose to dribble the ball forward first! Seeing that it was Pogba who was dribbling the ball forward, Chelsea left only Hazard jogging to support in the frontcourt, while all other players accelerated forward. Ramsey came up to grab the ball, and Pogba quickly passed it to Kante on the right. The ball was passed back and forth between Kante, Walker and William, trapping Kolasinac and Iwobi inside, and finally Walker kicked the ball to Hazard. "Azar!" Hazard shouted, then turned around and saw Jiang Yuan and Ibrahimovic were looking for their positions. With a "pop" of the pass, the ball came to Jiang Yuan's feet. Wearing the familiar No. 7 jersey and dribbling the ball on the familiar left side, Jiang Yuan moved closer to the penalty area, always observing and looking for opportunities.
"Jiang Yuan, challenge Koscielny on the wing" "The bicycle is pedaling out, Koscielny won't be shaken" "Yes, Koscielny is now more cautious after the mistake in giving away the penalty" "It's okay, Jiang Yuan will put pressure on the opponent's defense first." "Alonso comes up from behind and provides support" "Cooperate with Jiang Yuan! Beautiful!" Alonso made a very good pass, and Jiang Yuan pulled the ball and ran towards the small penalty area. Still on the left side, this time Mustafi was still in front of him blocking his shooting angle. It was the same situation as the penalty in the first half, but now Jiang Yuan no longer had any penalty to cheat with. He needs to take the initiative to seek cooperation with his teammates. Or... just knock on the door! Due to time constraints, Jiang Yuan did not have time to observe further. After discovering that Ibrahimovic was in a bad position, he directly chose to push the ball. Remember what Cech said. Find the angle! duang! Jiang Yuan shot to the far corner, the ball hit the post, bounced into the net. "GOOOOO-AAAAAA-LLLLLLLL!! 1" "The ball is in!" "Jiang Yuan, scored twice!" "This is a blind spot, a complete display of personal ability!" Tuchel raised his hands. During the interview, they all said Jiang Yuan had fully recovered, but this group of reporters just didn't believe it. Of course, no matter how much Tuchel explains, the effect is not as direct as these two goals. In the 62nd minute of the game, Jiang Yuan scored twice! "Jiang!" Boom! "Jiang!" Boom! The game continued and Arsenal was not completely without opportunities. Just 4 minutes after Jiang Yuan scored, Ramsey's long shot from the outside directly broke through Courtois' defense. It was already 70 minutes after the goal, and at this time Tuchel made a very strange substitution, replacing Jiang Yuan with Gary Cahill.
Fans don't know why Tuchel made this substitution, but Tuchel knows very well what he is doing. He saw Jiang Yuanbi's gesture. Need a break! 【what's going on? 】 [I can understand substitutions at 2:0, but isn’t substitutions at 2:1 a bit too dangerous? Chelsea isn’t strong enough to beat Arsenal, right?] [Hiss, Tuchel's performance is incredible. I think Xiao Jiang has a chance to score a hat trick.] [Can't you see that Xiao Jiang is a bit overwhelmed? It was like this during the Asian qualifiers last year. Once he got cramps, he would get cramps frequently afterwards. Tuchel probably wanted Jiang Yuan to take a break.] [Damn it, even in this situation, Jiang Yuan is still in the starting lineup. Chelsea really has no one left in the forward line] [It's not that Chelsea has no striker, but Jiang Yuan's tactical position is too high, there is no substitute. When Jiang Yuan returned to the national team, you can watch Chelsea's games, the wing attack is like suddenly impotent] [Don't change players, why should you change players? You can still advance.] [Let's go ahead and let Xiao Jiang have a good rest first] clap clap clap! Clap clap clap clap! When Jiang Yuan jogged off the court, the fans in the stands stood up and applauded him. Jiang Yuan put his left hand on his chest and raised his right hand to respond to the fans' applause, with a hint of apology in his voice. He could sense that if he continued playing, he would get cramps again. Staying on the field would not be of much help to the team, so he had to come off the field. "Thanks for your hard work" Tuchel hugged Jiang Yuan and then asked Jiang Yuan to return to the bench. Put everything else aside and let Clarkson check Jiang Yuan's calf first. Bad news, I am indeed about to get a cramp. Good news, Clarkson and Love whispered that Jiang Yuan only needs to rest for another week to recover from this problem. Recovery in the full sense is not the kind of recovery that you brag about when facing reporters. "One week?" Love frowned and made a "7" gesture to Tuchel who was standing in front of him. Tuchel pursed his lips and sighed. Jiang Yuan will return to China in 7 days! As the game entered its final stages, Tuchel replaced Hazard with Terry and began to play strict defense, trying to maintain the 2:1 advantage, and in the end they succeeded. Chelsea beat Arsenal 2:1, which is also their fifth victory in the Premier League this season. So far, only five rounds of the Premier League have been played! …… The front page headline of "Manchester Evening News" - Manchester United lost 0-1 to Everton at home, and ranked third in the standings with 5 points in the 0th round. The front page headline of The Times - Because Manchester United lost in the 5th game, Chelsea is currently the only undefeated team in the Premier League this season. Their points are 15, 3 points more than second-placed Manchester City and third-placed Manchester United. Chelsea team reporter Kieran Gill: Jiang's leg cramps have been completely resolved, but out of caution, the club will not let him play in the next League Cup game. In China, there are less than 20 minutes left before the second leg of the play-off home game, and the Football Association has not yet announced the venue. This is very frustrating because not having the venue announced means you don’t know when to grab tickets or how to arrange your trip.
Because of the home stadium selection issue, each tweet from the General Administration of Sport of China and the Chinese Football Association on Weibo has received thousands of comments and replies recently, all of which are urging the staff to do their job. There has been no official news, but sharp-eyed netizens have discovered something different. The final of The Voice of China Season 10, originally scheduled to be held at the Bird's Nest on October 8, suddenly changed its venue and was directly moved to Wuhan. In addition to The Voice of China, Wang Feng's concert tour at the Bird's Nest was postponed for one week. Wang Feng himself also released a video to apologize, saying that the team encountered "force majeure factors." The fans were a little confused. It was not until the official statement was made that they knew what the so-called "force majeure" was. The front-page headline of People's Daily - The second round of the World Cup qualifiers between China and Australia has been confirmed to be held at the Beijing Bird's Nest Stadium. Temporary seats are currently being arranged in the stadium. It is expected that the total capacity of the stadium on the day of the match can reach 93000 people (including 85000 home tickets). General Administration of Sport of China: Due to the temporary need to host large-scale international events, the two concerts originally scheduled for October at the Bird's Nest Stadium, "10 China New Voice Peak Night" and "Wang Feng's "Years" Tour Concert Beijing Bird's Nest Station" will be cancelled. The Bird's Nest Stadium will be closed to the public starting October 2 (National Day). …… After some mental struggle, officials from the Sports Bureau and the Football Association finally decided to hold the second leg of the match at the Bird's Nest. After all, the game on October 10 will directly determine the fate of the Chinese men's football team. What’s funny is that Song Kai, the then interim chairman of the Football Association, actually took the initiative to propose moving the game to other stadiums. Song Kai is a man who cares about his reputation and he is afraid of losing. Especially in the current situation, two concerts originally scheduled for the Bird's Nest had to be postponed temporarily for the play-offs, which directly attracted the attention of Chinese netizens. Song Kai didn't want to do this, he wanted to keep a low profile, and in the end he failed to fool those old guys in the Sports Bureau. The old guy's thinking was more conservative, but this just helped in the choice of venue. A national team's highest-level sports event should be held in the Bird's Nest. 8 home fans put pressure on the visiting team at the same time. This is the momentum that the Chinese national football team needs now! 【Here come my brothers! 】 [Damn, if the Chinese national football team wins the play-off match against Australia, can they go directly to the World Cup? ] [The Chinese national football team is going to enter the World Cup. Is this true? Isn’t it said that the Chinese national football team is rubbish?] [Awesome! They forced two concerts to be rescheduled. The Chinese national football team’s display is really grand. However, the National Stadium should be used by the national team. I feel like if they win this game, China will be in the midst of a football craze.] [I said it was the Bird's Nest! The Football Association is awesome! ] [Two concerts cannot be held, this wave of losses will be at least several million, maybe even tens of millions] [Losses are losses, but if the Chinese national football team wins in other stadiums and advances to the World Cup, many people will probably not recognize the Bird's Nest as a national stadium.] [Chinese national football team? Playing against Australia? Will they concede more than 10 goals?] [The guy above, if you could just watch the game for a minute before you speak, I wouldn't criticize you, okay? ] [Jiang Yuan, when will you come back! ] [This is awesome! Even Wang Feng’s concert can be postponed? Hey, who has a bigger presence, Wang Feng or Jiang Yuan? ]
[Let’s just say that even Wang Feng himself would shout “Awesome” when he saw Jiang Yuan] …… (End of this chapter)
