Chapter 283 Kill the game! (page 13)
“It was Hector who gave us the wonderful goal——”
DJ Smith's impassioned voice at the Emirates Stadium resounded throughout the venue.
"—Bellerin!!"
More than 50,000 Arsenal fans and some neutral fans blurted out.
After scoring the goal, Bellerin opened his arms in the frenetic home atmosphere, ran all the way to the right corner, and expressed the joy of the goal by sliding on his knees.
As a full-back, his offensive data is more reflected in assists.
Goal, belongs to the iron tree flowering category.
Another such a wonderful non-stop volley scored, Bellerin felt that his whole spirit seemed to have been greatly improved.
Wenger, who was in charge of the technical area of the home team coach, turned around and gave assistants Boulder and Gary Williams high-fives in excitement. He thought that liberating Martin would bring huge help to the offense, but he didn't expect... the help would be so great.
If you can score a goal so easily, what else is left to defend?
attack! attack! !
Of course, such an idea only existed in Wenger's mind for a few seconds.
Modern football is becoming more and more utilitarian. If you want to perform well in various events, you must first solve the defensive problem and then devote your energy to offense.
This season, the League Cup and the league were able to win consecutive championships, and the FA Cup reached the final. In addition to their outstanding offensive performance, the biggest reason is that their defense is very good.
Martin's personal role deserves the most credit.
If you can buy Leicester City's Kante, Real Madrid's Casemiro or Atletico Madrid's Thomas this summer, and pair them with an organizational midfielder, for example, you can look at the former Borussia captain and current Wolfsburg player Xhaka.
When the time comes, push Martin to the attacking midfielder position, and the offense will rise by two levels.
Giroud and Welbeck are replaced by world-class forwards who score steadily, and the entire offense will be improved by three levels.
Thinking of this, Wenger suddenly felt like he was dominating the world. He knew that the possibility of adding heavyweight players in multiple positions was not particularly high, but it was still possible.
After all, Arsenal has risen with the addition of Martin.
The results of the League Cup, League Cup championship, FA Cup final and high probability of advancing to the Champions League final are the confidence!
Looking up at the court again, Martin, the assist player who had finished celebrating the goal with his teammates, was applauding his teammates and kept saying something.
Wenger saw the players' excitement gradually turning solemn, and he probably guessed what Martin said.
It is precisely because of Martin's timely reminder to the players on the court that he does not have to remind the players loudly that they should stabilize their mentality.
The visiting coach at the other end directs the technical area.
Simeone seemed to have no way out, but he still had to encourage his players before the game started.
Maybe losing the ball is not a good thing, but everything has two sides.
Conceding a goal first as a guest means that you can only strengthen your offense, otherwise you will be eliminated.
The Atletico Madrid players on the field were not knocked down by the loss of the ball. On the contrary, they were full of longing for the restart of the game.
……
Fans who watched the live broadcast of the game felt very happy, because through the continuous slow-motion replays, they could fully feel the impact of Martin taking the ball and dribbling forward, and the control of the cross was also quite precise.
Just past the area where many offensive and defensive players gathered, he accurately found Bellerin, who was unguarded at the back point.
Not long after, the game started again.
Atletico Madrid, which has a kick-off advantage, strengthens its attack.
Compared with the offensive strategy before losing the ball, the offensive strategy organized by Koke, Gabi, and Saul was more patient, and no longer put too much offensive pressure on Karast, threatening Arsenal's incomplete defense through a strong overall defense. system.
Martin's position is prerequisite. Although he has the intention of being a free agent in the frontcourt, his help to Arsenal's overall defense is not as great as in the past.
This... can be used by Simeone's Atletico Madrid!
"uuuuuu——"
The Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium were full of passion, and they booed wave after wave when Atletico Madrid players organized the attack.
They know that a two-goal lead in the total score doesn't mean anything. The only way to advance is to wait until the total score leads to end the game!
Interfering with the visiting team's offense at your home court is one of the ways to win the game!
Although Martin is in a forward defensive position, he can still command the defense line and use his abundant physical fitness to cover a huge defensive area, putting pressure on players such as Gabi and Koke who are organizing the offense from behind, thus relieving the pressure on the defense. .
Atletico Madrid is not good at positional offense and can only speed up the passing speed in the face of continuous pressure.
After a few quick passes, the football rolled to the feet of left back Felipe, who was forced to cross in order to avoid being surrounded by Arsenal defenders and losing the ball.
The quality of the cross in such an environment can be imagined...
The kicked football flew directly out of the other sideline.
Arsenal received a throw-in from the left side of the backcourt.
Since Atletico Madrid's defense is mainly low, the home team is able to organize the attack from the backcourt and transport the ball to the frontcourt through patient passing.
Coquelin and Flamini are both defensive midfielders, and the organization of the offense still requires Martin's retreat and participation to sort out the offense and pave the way for expanding the score.
Considering that the score is one goal ahead and the total score is two goals ahead, Martin's series attack is mainly based on passing, which is exactly the same as the first round of the guest game, and reasonably consumes the game time.
Anyway, it's Atletico that's anxious.
Everyone is happy to play defensively, but pressing out will expose certain defensive gaps.
This... is what Martin and Arsenal want to see.
In short, the score lead should be stable, especially when the game comes to the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals. A slight mistake will cause a season's hard work to be wasted.
The one who is anxious should be Atletico Madrid.
The visiting team's head coach Simeone can certainly see Arsenal's technical and tactical style of play, which is to make him unable to help but press forward.
But he didn't dare to press forward. Once the low defense turned into a high defense, the stable defensive system in the past would inevitably expose gaps.
After seeing that the game time was still early, my troubled heart became calm.
Arsenal took the lead at home and took the initiative in the game. The home fans in the auditorium cheered and cheered loudly to cheer for the players on the field.
The die-hard fans gathered in the area and started singing "Martin's Song".
This song is a hit in the Arsenal fan zone and is popular all over the Internet. It is catchy and has a strong rhythm.
Martin, who was controlling the ball, could not help but raise a beautiful arc at the corner of his mouth as he listened to the endless music.
Atletico Madrid captain Gabi, who was responsible for marking, was suddenly dissatisfied.
Damn, I'm watching you, are you... are you laughing at me?
Gabi originally just wanted to keep a close eye on Martin and not give Martin a chance to turn around. When he saw Martin's evil and mocking smile, he couldn't help but kick him behind.
"Ah~"
Martin fell to the ground.
If he knew what Gabi was thinking, he would definitely cry out that he was wronged...
At the same time, referee Skomina whistled for a foul on Gabi and gave him a yellow card.
