Chapter 151: Offensive Gunners (Part 1)
On October 24th, at 7:45 pm British time, the third round of the Champions League group stage officially started at the Emirates Stadium.
When Li Chenglong entered the stadium with the team, he saw a sign dedicated to him by Arsenal fans in the stands.
"Bruce, welcome to the Emirates Stadium."
In fact, this brand has two meanings, one is that Lee Jackie Chan, a well-known Arsenal fan, came to the Emirates Stadium for the first time, and the other is that he is recruiting Lee Jackie Chan to transfer him to Arsenal.
Of course, Arsenal fans can play such a sign, which shows that they are not too worried about this game. They think that it is no problem for Arsenal to win Schalke 04, where Jackie Lee is playing, at home.
At this time, commentators from various countries are also talking about the story of Jackie Lee and Arsenal, or the story of Jackie Chan and Wenger.
"Bruce Lee grew up in London. After he became famous, the media found out that he was an Arsenal fan."
"But the biggest story between him and Arsenal was the Wenger and Lee incident in November last year. At that time, Wenger and Lee met in private and was photographed by reporters, which immediately caused a shock in British football. Punishment."
"It was also because of that incident that Li failed to join his favorite Arsenal. At the same time, Wenger also lost an important opportunity to strengthen, resulting in another signing with a difference in temperature."
"This game is the first time for Lee to come to the Emirates Stadium to play, but the only regret is that Wenger still can't command the game in this game and needs to sit in the stands."
Arsenal lost 0:4 to AC Milan last season. After the game, Wenger accused AC Milan of deliberately making the stadium look like a rotten vegetable field, which caused Arsenal to lose. He also blocked the referee in the player channel after the game. Accusing the opponent of favoring the home team, it is said that he was angry and swearing.
This kind of thing happened, of course, it cannot escape the punishment of UEFA.
However, UEFA did not punish Wenger immediately in accordance with "convention", but waited for him to command the second round of the Champions League before announcing a three-match ban on him.
UEFA does often do such things. For those controversial suspensions that need to be discussed and decided, UEFA will generally spend a period of time discussing them, and then announce the penalty decision at an "appropriate" time.
Just like the match between Arsenal and AC Milan last season, after the first round, UEFA "full" discussed it for more than half a month before finally deciding to suspend Wenger for three games.
If UEFA immediately suspended Wenger at that time, Arsenal without Wenger in that round would never be able to play a 3-0 home game, and the viewing pleasure of the Champions League would also be damaged.
Shaking this little cleverness, UEFA really has a hand.
Since it was after Arsenal was out of the Champions League last season that UEFA imposed a suspension penalty, it was postponed to this season.
In the first three games of this season's Champions League, Wenger could not sit on the coach's bench to direct the game.
And now this is just the third match.
In this game, both Schalke 04 and Arsenal arranged a 4231 formation.
Schalke 04 has exactly the same lineup as in the last Ruhr Derby. The winning team does not need to change. Stevens has heard this old saying in football.
For Arsenal, their starting lineup is,
Goalkeeper: Mannoni;
Defenders: Andre Santos, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Karl Jenkins;
Back midfielder: Arteta, Coquelin;
Avant-garde: Podolski, Cazorla, Ramsey;
Forward: Gervinho.
Arsenal also has a lot of injuries at present. In addition to Wilshere, who was injured last season, there are Fabianski, Szchennes, Walcott, Diaby, Gibbs, Rosicky, etc., the list of injuries is simply a long list.
After the game officially started, both sides played more cautiously, because neither side dared to say that they would definitely be able to win the opponent.
After the opening until the 11th minute, the first goal of the game did not appear.
Podolski made a cross from the side, and Gervinho made a push in front of the goal, but it missed under the interference of Matip.
In the 14th minute, Li Chenglong dribbled the ball in the middle to pass Coquelin, and entered the penalty area with a low-level shot. He also completed Schalke 04's first shot, but the ball missed the right post slightly.
After the slow pace of the opening ten minutes, Arsenal began to actively seek changes, ready to press the attack, after all, this is their home court.
In the 19th minute, Podolski forcibly passed Atsuto Uchida from the side and then made a cross. The ball bypassed Unnerstahl and rolled to the back of the goal, but Gervinho, who followed up, was a step slower. Just missed the goal.
In the 26th minute, Cazorla cooperated with his teammates in front of the penalty area and then took a long shot. The ball hit Hewedes and almost refracted into the net.
After speeding up the pace, Arsenal's offensive immediately began to threaten Schalke 04's goal.
But under such circumstances, Schalke 04 found the opportunity first.
In the 33rd minute, Li Chenglong ran into the penalty area and received Holtby's forward through ball with his back.
With Mertesacker defending behind him, Li Chenglong first smashed the ball inside his right foot, intending to turn to the left, causing Mertesacker behind him to follow his center of gravity to the left, but Li Chenglong stepped on the ball again and pulled it back. Turn right.
This time not only deceived Mertesacker behind him, but even Arteta, who came to double-team Lee Chenglong, was also passed by.
"Lee ~~~ Continuous shaking and smashing the ball~~~ He tricked Mertesacker away!!" Li Chenglong's actions directly made the British commentator raise his voice.
"Lee turned around~~~~ kicked the door!!"
Turning around smoothly, Li Chenglong coherently swung his legs sideways and volleyed with his left foot.
The ball headed towards the lower left corner of the goal. The Italian goalkeeper Mannoni, who was kicked out because the goalkeeper and the assistant goalkeeper were injured at the same time, was obviously unprepared. He just stood in front of the goal and watched the ball roll into the corner behind him In the goal.
"Goooooooooooal~~~~~~~" The German commentator let out a long roar.
"Bruce Lee~~~ turned around and hit the door very beautifully~~~~~ Well done!!!"
"He tricked the defender away with a fake move, turned around and shot with his left foot. This time the shot angle was very tricky and flew directly into the lower left corner of the goal!!"
"Whether it's the turn fake or the completion of the shot, Li has done a very good job. This is the personal ability of a top player!"
In a slightly passive away game, they took the lead in scoring goals, which made the entire Schalke 04 team happy, and immediately rushed to celebrate with Lee Chenglong.
But Li Chenglong waved his hands and declined, signaling that he would not celebrate.
"Lee, he pushed his teammates away, obviously, he was saying that he didn't celebrate the goal."
"Lee is a big Arsenal fan, that's probably why he didn't celebrate after scoring an Arsenal goal."
Li Chenglong's actions immediately attracted the attention of the audience, and the commentator was also talking about this situation.
The boos that just sounded at the Emirates Stadium, because Li Chenglong did not celebrate the goal, this action has dropped again, and a small number of people are applauding him.
In fact, Jackie Lee has no choice. He has long been dubbed the hat of a loyal Arsenal fan. If he celebrates wildly after scoring a goal at the Emirates Stadium, wouldn't his design collapse in an instant?
Lee Chenglong did not celebrate the goal, and the game soon resumed.
Taking advantage of the momentum after the goal, Schalke 04 turned away at the Emirates Stadium and began to suppress Arsenal.
In the 38th minute, Schalke 04 hit the frontcourt. Li Chenglong suddenly kicked the goal in front of the penalty area, which shocked the Arsenal fans again. Fortunately, Mannoni stepped back in time and stretched out his hand to lift the ball over the crossbar.
Immediately after the corner kick opportunity, Matip successfully grabbed a point to complete the header, but he pushed the ball directly into Manoni's arms.
In the 43rd minute, Schalke 04 had another excellent opportunity.
Li Chenglong passed Podolski and Andre Santos consecutively on the right, and pushed the ball forward.
Uchida Atsuto, who was plugged in from the back row, set the edge and went down. Because Li Chenglong's passing strength was just right, he could take the ball comfortably, and then he made a cross pass.
Huntelaar ran into the small penalty area in time and kicked the ball at close range.
It was almost a must-goal, but Huntelaar pushed the ball over the post and bounced off the baseline without too much interference.
"Last season Huntelaar's performance was almost perfect, but since the beginning of this season, his state has declined very obviously, and his contribution to the team is not even comparable to the newly joined Bruce Lee." The German commentator also said Look at the moment just now.
This kind of continuous cooperation on the right creates opportunities for the center, which has been practiced many times in the Schalke 04 team.
This time everyone did a very good job, but Huntelaar's last kick was so bad that it really shouldn't be.
Although a great opportunity wasted at the last moment, Schalke 04 still ended the first half with a one-goal lead.
