Chapter 17 Mixed blessings After the start of the second half of the game, Mourinho did arrange more changes for Arsenal's offensive routine. "Little Fat" Rooney moved to the left, and others began to cooperate with him more . In the 46th minute, just one minute into the second half, Rooney took the ball with his back in front of Leeds United's left penalty area. After passing it back to Ramsey who was following up, he turned around and wiped it in from Chen Jinlong, and Ramsey also Without stopping the ball, he just pushed the ball back with a bang. It's very simple to come and go, but "Little Fatty" has changed from taking the ball with his back outside the penalty area to facing the goal in the penalty area "Bang!" Rooney used his left hand, which he is not very good at. A curved ball came out from the instep of his foot. The ball circled a large arc in the air and flew towards the Leeds United goal on the right side. Unfortunately, Rooney did not control his footwork well, and the ball turned in an arc that was too big. , flew directly into Diaz's hands. "Oh¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª" When there was a sigh in the Emirates Stadium, Diaz, who fell in the small penalty area with the ball in his arms, was still rejoicing. The ball just now was too dangerous, and the team had already switched to defense. He fought back, but this kind of cold arrow is still hard to guard against! "Ben!" After Diaz stood up, he threw the ball to Ben Parker on the left. Leeds United's counterattack started from the left The ball went between Ben Parker, Jonny Howson, After Lens passed the ball several times, Ben Parker followed up and sent the ball with his left foot to the line of the small penalty area facing the goal in the Arsenal penalty area. This cross from Ben Parker is a reflection of his experience and skills in playing left back for many years. He has assisted countless times in the game, and his speed, angle and accuracy have reached the highest level. But this time Boom! The ball was pushed out by Arsenal center back Sparks. Shaq didn't even touch the edge of the ball. It's not that Shaq didn't fight for it. But Papadopoulos and Roberto Nio used their bodies to block him early on! Shaq chuckled and turned around and shook his head: Damn! You are so shameless! ? Three people play with me! ? Even at his peak, Shaq couldn't win the ball under such conditions, not to mention that he is already thirty years old and his competitive state has really gone downhill. But the defense just now was the Arsenal left back's own choice or Mourinho's tactical arrangement! ? If it is Mourinho¡¯s arrangement. Then there should be a loophole in Arsenal's back line, especially in the position of left back Papadopoulos. Can it be exploited? While Shaq was still thinking about it, Arsenal's offense started again, and their style of play was still very fast and fierce Counterattack! The ball was pushed out by Sparks and fell to the feet of Ramsey who was retreating. Then it was passed back to the feet of left back Papadopoulos who ran out of the penalty area, and then "Bang!" Papadopoulos turned out to be A long pass directly to the feet of Italian forward Sac who ran to the front left! Italian forward Sac¡¯s skills are very comprehensive. He is not a forward who relies on his body to make a living. He is a typical Italian Latin striker with strong mobility and a wide range of activities. "Boom!" Sack stopped the bouncing ball with his chest while running, then before the ball landed, he moved the ball forward with his left foot and ran along the wing. Chen Jinlong beside him There was no chance of interception at all, and all that was left was to run against the Italian on the inside. Fortunately, although Chen Jinlong is only twenty years old now, he has made rapid progress under the training of Simon Grayson and has already played 81 professional league games. Already very solid on defense. Chen Jinlong, who was running next to Sac, gave his opponent no chance to shoot or pass him. Even the angle of the cross was blocked. The two ran all the way into Leeds United's penalty area. As they got closer and closer to the bottom line, Koslov, who was at the center back, rushed up. He wanted to defend with Chen Jinlong and completely steal the ball. But, Koslov ran over. Leeds United's defense in the middle was open, and Sack passed the ball back at this moment. The position was on the left side of the center, the area that Kerslov was originally defending! kindness! ? Off the court, Simon Grayson suddenly became nervous. This ball is dangerous! Kslov too much! Another central defender of Leeds United, Du Jinlong, has already run over to fill in But a figure wearing a red shirt was faster than him, rushing straight in from outside the penalty area Barkley! "Bang!" The 29-year-old Barkley was born in Everton. At the age of 23, he moved to Arsenal for 20 million pounds. He also followed Simon Grayson to win the World Cup. His personal ability is also England's Outstanding among many midfield stars. At this time, Barkley fully demonstrated his strength. He didn't stop the ball at all, he just volleyed towards the ball! "Whoosh!" The ball stayed close to the ground and flew straight to the lower left corner of the Leeds United goal! This low, fast, and tricky volley left Diaz, who had just moved to the center, helpless. He fell to the ground to save and failed to touch the ball at all "Goal!!!!!!!!!" ! ! ! ! ! At that time, the "Gunners" playing at home finally tied the score again! "Alas, Yuri Yuri!" Off the court, Simon Grayson shook his head helplessly and sighed, muttering Koslov's name. The goal he just conceded was just a reflection of Koslov's impatience. It¡¯s just one of the dangers. This young Russian central defender has potential and motivation. He even scored 3 goals in 6 games for Leeds United. This is rare for a central defender. of. But this impatience will definitely affect his progress and even become the most insurmountable stumbling block for Koslov on his way to a world-class central defender! "Simon!" Harvey, who was sitting next to Simon Grayson, said: "I know what you are thinking. But look at Yuri" Well! ? Simon Grayson raised his head in astonishment. When he looked at Koslov on the court, he found that this Russian with blond hair had his head lowered and was being held in the arms of Joni Howson. His mood didn't seem to be very good. right! Simon Grayson didn¡¯t think much about it at this time, but ten minutes later, Simon Grayson knew something was wrong Arsenal scored again! Sack¡¯s cross from the left. Ramsey grabbed the point from Koslov and headed the ball into the upper left corner of Leeds United's goal 3:2, Arsenal completed the reversal! In this goal, Koslov even fulfilled his basic responsibilities as a central defender. His movements were a beat slower, and he watched helplessly as Ramsey completed the header and failed to make a contest at all. The action of grabbing is coming. After seeing this, Simon Grayson immediately made the decision to make a substitution. He asked Portuguese center back Miguel Angelo to replace Koslov. He hugged the Russian youngster and returned to the bench, and arranged for him to sit next to him. If it were another head coach, maybe after seeing Koslov's performance, he would think that he is not useful and that he is not a malleable talent, so he might give up. But "Cruel Simon" is the best at training young players. Simon ?Grayson discovered Koslov¡¯s problem immediately, when the player was around 20 years old. He often encounters setbacks that he will never forget, which will leave a heavy psychological blow to young players. Overcome this hurdle. The psychological aspect will mature, and players will be more motivated and have brighter prospects on the road to development! Stepping forwardmany so-called "geniuses" have fallen! Today¡¯s game is obviously the test that Koslov will face. Barkley¡¯s previous goal and Ramsey¡¯s goal now are all directly related to Koslov. If the Russian youngster cannot withstand this blow, his career will be unremarkable from now on. But what Simon Grayson hopes to see more is that Kerslov can stand up again tenaciously, make a qualitative leap in overall strength, and then ride the wind and waves to a higher peak! This is a test for Koslov. It is also an opportunity! After the substitution, Leeds United closed the only hole in the defense. Although the Portuguese youngster is not as talented as Koslov, he is better than solid. This is the most basic quality of a central defender. Leeds United's defense has gotten better, and the quality of their offense has also improved. In addition, young people such as Murray, Lens, and Berakta have begun to understand how to use Shaq's protective role. The "Young Guards" The offense became very flexible and threatening, and they finally received rewards in the 77th minute of the game At the 77th minute, Murray took the ball from the right and made a pass, but the ball did not reach the front point. Or in the middle, Shaq is active in this area at this time, GermanyThe star was smart enough to send the ball directly to the back point! People saw a short white figure running all the way from outside the penalty area on the left, as fast as lightning. He rushed to Arsenal's left penalty area and then jumped into the air. He rushed the ball in front of the right back Vallejo. To the upper left corner of the goal Alex Lens scored with a header! "Goal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" After scoring the goal, Lens roared excitedly and rushed to the left corner. Qi's camera roared in front of the camera and grabbed the Leeds United crest on the front of his jersey, seeming to express his loyalty to his home club, and his childish face looked ferocious and domineering! All the competitors couldn't help but be jealous of Simon Grayson's good luck at this time, because they all saw that a new star who was no worse than Jonny Howson, Ben Parker, and Ashley Hood was rising. rising! The performance of young player Lens has been amazing before, but whether a player can contribute to the team in key games is the most critical criterion for measuring a player's value to the team. 3:3! This score also became the final score of this "top battle". Leeds United took the lead twice in the away game. After being equalized twice by the home team Arsenal and taking the lead, the rising star of the "Young Guards" Lens turned out to be the best. The birth gave the "gunner" the most fatal blow, shattering the opponent's desire to win. But for the "Young Guards", I don't know whether this game is a joy or a sorrow Sixteen-year-old Lens has shown the level of a star player, and he is truly radiant and has a bright future! However, Koslov, who is regarded as one of the two iron gates of the team's future, made two fatal mistakes. Whether he can be reused by "Cruel Simon" in the future and whether he will develop will be really difficult. It¡¯s hard to say. (To be continued)
