godfather of football

Time flies by quickly, with half an hour to go, and the managers of both sides are putting the finishing touches on the final touches to win another game in the semi-finals to fight for that trophy, so neither team wants to drop the chain at this juncture.

In the home team's locker room, Jiang Feng clapped his hands to attract the attention of the players, and said, "Hey, guys! Don't be nervous, relax, we've made history so far, so it's the other side and not us who should be nervous, think about it, we're just a fourth tier team in England, next season we're promoted to League One, but that's only the third tier, but if we can win the final title then we'll go to the UEFA Cup next season and see the top teams in the other leagues in Europe, which has never been done in Leiton's history, and now you're making history with every step you take。 Come on, guys!"

Jiang Feng's pre-war mobilization made every player in Leiton East enthusiastic.

The visiting dressing room is very calm, for Arsenal, both Wenger and the players, they are very experienced, for such a game may not be as good as a league game.

"Hey, when you get on the pitch, pay attention to the opponent's two wings of defense, the opponent does have their own uniqueness in this point, you can't underestimate them, as long as everyone does what they should do well, the victory will definitely belong to us in the end." Arsene Wenger gave the player a brief reminder.

Soon half an hour passed, and the players from both sides were now standing in their respective positions, waiting for the referee to blow the whistle to start the game.

There were no changes to the starting line-up of Leyton East, Ibrahimovic started the centre-forward, Ribery and Malouda were the left and right wingers, Deco up front, De Rossi and Kleberson in the back, Alves and Evra on the left and right wing-backs, Wald and George in the centre-backs, and goalkeeper Cam.

Arsenal's starting lineup is: goalkeeper Seaman, the four defenders are Silvinho, Adams, Keown, Dixon, the midfielders are Overmars, Petit, Vieira, Ljungberg, and the forwards are Bergkamp and Henry, this lineup is also Arsenal's highest appearance rate in the league this year.

Fabiano, who joined Arsenal from Leiton Oriental during the winter transfer period, was sitting on the bench, Wenger bought Fabiano only as a substitute for Bergkamp, after all, the age of the ice prince is old, when the player entered, Fabiano also came to Jiang Feng's side and hugged Jiang Feng and some of his former teammates, to be honest, the current Fabiano has some regrets about his original choice, he has always been the starting center forward when he was in Leiton East, and after arriving at Arsenal, he only served as a substitute for the team, and like Fabiano's current age, he needs more games to accumulate experience, so Fabiano felt a trace of remorse in his heart after arriving at Arsenal, feeling that maybe the original choice was not the most suitable for him, and the relationship between players and players in the giant team was not as simple as it was in Leiton East.

The game was about to start, Jiang Feng stood on the sidelines and looked at Arsenal's starters, and kept sighing in his heart, there were many stars he liked in his previous life in this lineup, fate was really tricky, he didn't expect that he would one day be able to compete with his favorite stars.

In fact, Jiang Feng's judgment on this game is not bottomless, before the start of the game, through systematic tactical analysis, the current Leiton Oriental and Arsenal can be counted as five or five, and the systematic tactical analysis also said that as long as Leiton Oriental can hold the front, the further the game goes, the greater the chance of Leiton Oriental winning, because Arsenal's players on the field are older, and they cannot be compared with Leiden in terms of physical strength.

And even if Wenger sent his best lineup, he would never allow the players on the field to fight with him for 90 minutes, because Arsenal is still under a lot of pressure in the league, and it is easy to be overtaken by Leeds United behind him, after all, they are 2 points ahead of Leeds United in the standings, so Jiang Feng concluded that Wenger's calculation is to completely squeeze Leyton East to lock in the victory through the first half, and then let the main team rest and conserve physical strength in the second half, so the tactic for the team is to fight hand-to-hand with the opponent at any cost of physical strength and drag the opponent to death in the midfield。

Quickly on the field, the referee looked at his watch and blew the whistle for the start of the game.

Sure enough, as Jiang Feng expected, at the beginning of the game, Arsenal launched wave after wave of attacks against Leiton's defense, fortunately, Jiang Feng was very well prepared for this point during the pre-game training, so after the opening, although Arsenal's attack was very fierce, but it did not cause much pressure on Leiton's defense, De Rossi and Kleberson's double back intercepted many of Arsenal's attacks in the midfield, and the two sides fought very fiercely in the midfield, and all the players in Leiton East implemented Jiang Feng's tactical arrangements very well, which also made Wenger, who was originally sitting in the coach's seat like Tarzan after the opening, unable to sit still, standing on the sidelines with his arms crossed and gesturing to the players on the field.

Wenger knows very well why Jiang Feng arranged it this way, to be honest, the opponent did this in the few games that Arsenal lost in the Premier League this season, but it was not as thorough as Jiang Feng, watching the players of Leiton Oriental on the field frequently turn their backs with their own players through physical contact, Wenger frequently looked sideways at Jiang Feng, he didn't expect the opponent's head coach to be so young, but the tactical arrangement was so experienced and so scoundrel.

The game has been played for almost 35 minutes, and neither side has had too good chances, so far Arsenal have only four shots on goal, and two of those four shots are long-range shots from the perimeter, while Leyton Orient has only two shots on goal, and the two sides are more in the midfield pulling each other, and the ball is converted very quickly.

The two teams are in a state of stalemate, and no one can help the other.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Leyton Orient got their best chance so far in a counterattack.

Ibrahimovic volleyed on the edge of the penalty area, but the shot was interfered with by Petit, but it was this interference that caused the ball to appear in a strange arc in the air, and Seaman had nothing to do in the face of such a ball, and the ball slowly crossed an arc in the air and drilled into the goal.

1-0, no one expected that the first half of the game was coming to an end, and Leyton East actually took the lead, although this ball has more luck components, but football is like this, luck is sometimes part of strength.
