Chapter 228 Petr Cech
Although Zhang Chong is full of respect for Wenger, he will never hold back on the field.
For a team with three backs, Zhang Chong's consistent strategy is to focus on the wing.
In this game, his focus was on these two top-notch wingers. He told the two of them, just give me a hard shot until they explode!
The reason why Arsenal dared to try a three-back formation was mainly due to the existence of the two sides of Kolasinac and Bellerin.
In fact, both of them have some shortcomings when playing traditional full-backs, but playing wing-backs can make up for their shortcomings to a certain extent.
But today Bury's wing strength is too strong, suppressing them miserably.
No. In the 11th minute, Keane took the lead. After getting the ball from the left, he made two fake moves and passed Bellerin, and then began to rush towards the Arsenal penalty area.
But Bellerin's speed is not covered. Although he was passed, he quickly caught up with the speed advantage of the empty run, and formed a front and back attack with right center back Koscielny.
Little Keane did not continue to dribble, but passed the ball to Mesias who responded, and then continued to run towards the penalty area.
Mesias did not stop the ball, and directly passed the ball to Robertson, who inserted in the back. Robertson directly chose a 45-degree cross!
The British God of Gamblers in the penalty area leaped high and deflected the ball under the interference of Mustafi.
No.203 minutes, Traore on the right also got a chance to perform.
Kolasinac's speed is not as prominent as Bellerin's, so Traore's dribble seems a little easier than Keane's.
He swung past his opponent, then dribbled to the baseline.
In this game, Zhang Chong's request for them is not only to complete the bottom pass, but to challenge the side defenders as much as possible, let them pull to the side, and create the greatest space for the players in the middle.
And Traore obviously remembered the coach's arrangement. After he brought the ball to the penalty area, he chose to continue to single out the left center back Holding!
Holding is a promising new defensive star, but his current defensive experience is obviously not enough to defend Traore one-on-one!
Traore first made a fake move to break through to the bottom line, and Holding's center of gravity moved towards the bottom line.
But Traore then made another change of direction, ready to cut inside.
Holding also seemed to have expected this step. He quickly adjusted his center of gravity and moved a step sideways to the left, preparing to get stuck.
But I didn't expect that Traore's action was also a false move, and he changed his direction and rushed towards the bottom line!
This time Holding completely lost his center of gravity, and could only watch helplessly as his opponent flashed past him!
Only Cech was left in front of Traore at this time!
Facing the Czech goalkeeper, he directly chose to sweep the pass to the center of the penalty area!
The British God of Gamblers in the middle stretched out his foot to tackle, but Mustafi beat the ball out of the baseline before him!
After overcoming Bury's offense, Arsenal also began to counterattack.
They realize that their flanks are not dominant, so they mainly choose to penetrate from the center.
No. 301 minutes, the card master Xhaka issued a card in the backcourt, Sang got the ball in his thigh and rushed forward. After passing McDermott, he made a straight pass. Lacazette found an open space between the two central defenders , Directly stop the ball and shoot!
Mendy struggled to save the ball over the baseline.
Throughout the first half, the two sides were in a balance of power as a whole, but Arsenal's offense was mainly concentrated in the middle, and Bury's offense was mainly concentrated in the wing.
But the score was still zero to zero.
In the second half, both sides made personnel adjustments. Zhang Chong replaced McDermott with Kanter to strengthen the defense in the middle.
After Kanter came on the field, Arsenal's central attack was greatly suppressed.
And Bury's offense is still sharp, posing a great threat to Arsenal's goal.
If it weren't for Cech's outstanding performance, the score would have been rewritten.
No. 60 minutes into the game, the score remained unchanged.
Zhang Chong decided to make personnel adjustments.
Mbappe and Harland came on the field, replacing Keane and the British God of Gamblers.
Wenger couldn't help but look at Zhang Chong, a little envious of Bury's terrifying personnel reserve.
As soon as Mbappe and Harland came on the field, the firepower in the frontcourt suddenly went up to another level.
This future double pride is already in a semi-finished state at this time, and they used their physical advantages to attack Arsenal.
No.607 minutes, after Mbappe passed Bellerin, he dunked Koscielny, and then directly chose to cut inside and hit the goal!
The football draws a beautiful arc and goes straight to the dead end!
But it was Cech again, flying up and saving the ball over the baseline.
The corner kick was taken, and Cech relied on his height and wingspan to grab the ball directly out of the penalty area before Harland.
After the old goalkeeper was forced to leave Chelsea, he brought his talent to the Emirates Stadium, allowing Arsenal fans to see what a top goalkeeper is.
Although he is old, he can still give top performances in certain performances.
And this game was a moment when he was in a good state.
No. In 703 minutes, Mbappe cut in from the left and gave a ball behind him. Harland obliquely inserted into the penalty area, facing Cech, he directly chose to volley with his left foot to the far corner!
And Cech went down very fast, and directly blocked the ball with his feet!
The depth of Bury's line-up gave them the upper hand in the closing stages of the second half.
But precisely because of Cech's existence, the score has not been rewritten.
Until the No.805 minute of the game, Bury ushered in another great opportunity!
Messias slid past the Swiss king Xhaka, and then passed the ball to Traore.
Traore directly ate Kolasinac with speed, and then passed back to Mesias who came to meet when Holding stepped forward to block.
Mesias didn't stop the ball, and just followed up with a through pass. Traore just went forward to receive the ball and went into the hinterland of the penalty area.
Their one-two has already left Holding behind, and no one can further interfere with his next move.
Harland also understood and pressed towards the small penalty area.
Central defenders Mustafi and Koscielny hurriedly followed him, preparing to use a double attack to prevent him from grabbing the point.
But Traore flicked his ankle, but the ball was passed near the penalty spot!
Mbappe rushed over in stride, facing the ball with a push!
The angle of the ball is very tricky and the speed is extremely fast, but Cech can still react to the limit and save the ball to the bottom line!
Mbappe watched all this in disbelief, and Zhang Chong on the sidelines couldn't believe that the ball could be saved.
But that's what it is!
After this great opportunity was missed, the two sides could never change the score again.
With the whistle of the referee, the game officially ended.
Zhang Chong's team scored [-]-[-] against Arsenal in the away game!
