The game was a big success.

At the end of the first half, Arsenal had a 3:0 difference. In the second half, Wenger simply replaced Lacazette and Welbeck, two heroes, which not only gave the visiting team a face but also gave other young players more training opportunities, the best of both worlds.

However, this operation made Bournemouth feel despised. For this reason, they launched several counterattacks in the second half, but they still failed to break through the gate guarded by Cech.

In the end, the game ended with 3:0. The young substitute failed to seize the opportunity to play, which made people shake their heads.

Throughout the game, Lei Ming almost always sat quietly on the bench. Although he didn't play, he got a lot of responses when he waved to the fans. He also saw all the banners that the fans put up for him and smiled to express his gratitude.

Although he didn't play in this game, he didn't feel any regret, because he knew how important he was to the team.

At the same time, the intensive schedule of the Premier League is also a major reason. In the next seven days, they will have two consecutive crucial games.

The Europa League is undoubtedly a crucial game for Arsenal now.

In this season without the Champions League, the Europa League is undoubtedly another league that can earn them high income, and Arsenal can also get a lot of exposure in this game.

On September 15, the fans who didn't see Lei Ming start last time finally saw Lei Ming's first appearance in the Emirates Stadium in this game. When he appeared, many fans raised the banners they had prepared to welcome him.

"Lei, the Emirates Stadium welcomes you!"

"Lei, I'm optimistic about you! Come on."

"Lei, let everyone see that you are the best!"

It's hard to imagine that Lei Ming has only played for Arsenal once so far, but he has been able to have so many fans in the Emirates Stadium. Even Wenger, who was watching silently on the sidelines, seemed a little surprised.

However, there was still no change on his face for these things. Of course, he would not forget that these people had always been looking for trouble with him some time ago.

........

"Dear audience, did you see this? This is the cheer from the Emirates Stadium. This is the cheer that belongs to Lei Ming!"

"Can you imagine that this is a player who has only played one game for Arsenal? Can you imagine that this is a player who has just logged in to Arsenal? But he really did it. He conquered the picky Gunners fans with his unique charm."

CCTV host Huang Xiaotian said with great emotion when he saw Lei Ming finally set foot on the Emirates Stadium for his first start.

Along the way, he almost watched Lei Ming walk step by step to Arsenal, and still remembered his clumsy save when he just played for Monaco.

However, now, in just about a year, Lei Ming has become completely different. His transformation is almost visible to the naked eye, which is really surprising.

Liu Xin also smiled and said, "Yes, in this year, we have witnessed Lei Ming's magical saves many times. This time he can represent Arsenal in the starting lineup, which is enough to show that he should have won the trust of Professor Wenger. After all, the Europa League is crucial to Arsenal now."

"This game will be the first group match of Group H, and they will face Cologne from the Bundesliga."

"In this game, because the player Lacazette had a small accident in training, he was not arranged in the starting list, and the professor arranged a 343 formation to prepare for the match against Cologne."

"Can the Gunners' attack line composed of Sanchez, Giroud and Walcott have a good performance in the first Europa League group match? Let's wait and see."

With the host's long introduction, the audience also had some understanding of some of the players on the field.

Just when some fans had just washed some fruits or melon seeds and were ready to watch the game, the host's exclamation came from the TV.

"Wow, let's take a look at Cologne's attack this time. It's really thrilling!"

"If Lei Ming hadn't played bravely enough, this shot would definitely have become the first goal of the game."

As Huang Xiaotian sighed, the big screen

The screen also showed the replay of the game just now.

It was seen that the Arsenal team, which was originally firmly in control of the initiative of the game, had a failure in the attack in the 8th minute of the game, which directly led to the empty defense, and this also gave the opponent a good opportunity for defensive counterattack.

Cologne's offensive player John Cordoba also seized this opportunity very well and directly created a single-handed opportunity.

At that moment, John Cordoba seemed a little excited when facing Lei Ming who was ready to attack. Of course, he knew this goalkeeper and knew that the opponent was currently the most expensive goalkeeper in the football world.

John Cordoba was extremely excited to be able to press this talented goalkeeper to the ground.

But what he never expected was that when he was about to shoot, the opponent suddenly said to him: "You want to push the far corner, right? No goal, big black guy."

It was precisely because of the opponent's words this time that John Cordoba hesitated a little, which also led to the fact that when he wanted to change his shooting method, the ball was directly held in the opponent's arms, and he lost the opportunity to shoot.

Yes, just now, he was right.

He did intend to shoot from the far corner, but after hearing what the other party said, he wanted to lob the ball, but because of that one second of hesitation, he missed the chance to shoot. He fell in the penalty area and couldn't even get a penalty because the other party's save was very clean.

His save instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the fans in the Emirates Stadium, and many fans cheered for his save.

Lei Ming did not pass the ball immediately after he saved the ball, but chose to slow down before passing the ball.

In this game, Arsenal firmly grasped the absolute possession rate. He knew very well that as long as the frontcourt players were given enough time, it would not be too long before they could score a goal.

The danger just now was also completely an accident. Midfielder Iwobi failed to stop the opponent from receiving the ball in the first time, which led to the opportunity of being singled out.

Soon, the course of the game confirmed Lei Ming's idea. Except for a great offensive opportunity in the 9th minute, Cologne was suppressed by Arsenal for the rest of the first half.
