Chapter 397 A Bigger Blow
Due to the relapse of Van Persie's old injury, Bendtner, the self-confident king of Denmark, unexpectedly got the chance to play. Although the position was a winger, Bendtner didn't care. Against that guy again, Bendtner felt that this was his chance to perform. This article was first published by
Just after playing, Bendtner raised his hand for the ball and asked Nasri to pass it to him.
In the last game, Bendtner had a lot of advantages against Fuxilai. As long as he didn't rush to play, he could still create a threat. Facing Porto's high-pressure defense, Nasri couldn't find a way to break through, so he lobbed the ball to the Get Bendtner, let Bendtner deal with Fu Xilai.
Bendtner squeezed Fu Xilai's chest to stop the ball, opened his arms, pressed Fu Xilai and took the ball to the penalty area.
Bendtner still wanted to single out Fucilet like last time, but Porto had already prepared for it. When Nasri passed the ball to Bendtner, Hulk quickly assisted in the defense and made a steal from the front.
Bendtner dribbled the ball to avoid Hulk's steal, Fucilai's foot came again, and when he avoided Fucilai's foot again, Hulk made a hard cut from the side and rear, and Bendtner hit a Staggered and broke the ball.
In his own backcourt, Hulk didn't dare to control the ball. He passed the ball to Fuxilai, and the experienced Fuxilai drove directly to the frontcourt with a big kick.
Although Bendtner's attack did not result in a cross or a shot, it was still effective and attracted two defensive players from Porto. After getting the ball again, Arsenal passed the ball to Bendtner again. .
However, this time Bendtner did not get the chance to face Fucilet alone. Porto has now strengthened the protection of Fucilet. Hulk went over to grab the ball at the first time, and Bendtner passed the ball back for an assist. Gibson was intercepted by Guarin.
Gibson immediately went over to press close to prevent Guarin from turning around. Nasri also quickly cut off the passing line between Guarin and the Porto midfielder.
However, although Gua Er is unreliable, he often has amazing works. He grabbed the ball facing the sideline. When Gibson came over, he quickly pulled the ball behind his right foot with his left foot, which happened to pass through Gibson's crotch. Then bypassed Gibson from the outside.
Wow!
There was a sound of amazement in the stands. Most Porto fans did not expect that Guarin could also have such a delicate technique, and they couldn't help applauding after the amazement.
After Guarin broke through Gibson, there were no defensive players in front of him, and Guarin quickly dribbled the ball straight to Arsenal's half.
Seeing that Guarin made a breakthrough on the wing,
Porto's midfielders Gao Xiaodong, Fernando, and Merles rushed forward quickly, and forward Falcao also ran forward with his eyes on the defender, ready to accelerate at any time.
Arsenal is besieging Porto's restricted area. Guarin's breakthrough this time is tantamount to digging a hole in Arsenal's defense line. If Arsenal don't block this hole, their defense line will collapse completely.
Arsenal's midfielder used all his strength to run back, and the defensive midfielder Song made up the defense at the fastest speed to the side, blocking Gualin's way forward.
Although Gao Xiaodong is in the position of the midfielder, his position is higher than Fernando and Guarin, and lower than Melles, but his speed is much faster than Merles, and he quickly surpassed He surpassed Mereles and Nasri, who was returning to the defense, and ran neck and neck with Fabregas and another full-back Sagna.
Gao Xiaodong is faster, and it is only a matter of time before Fabregas is surpassed.
See Arsenal midfielder Alexander. Song went to mend the side, Gao Xiaodong hurriedly raised his hand to ask for the ball from Gualin, now this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to counterattack, once Alexander. Song fouled Gualin tactically, and only got a free kick from the side to lose a lot.
Gao Xiaodong was originally worried that Gualin would only want to lead forward and not pass the ball, but he didn't expect Gualin to be enlightened today. He waved and shouted, and Gualin immediately crossed over.
Gao Xiaodong was overjoyed, and immediately accelerated to overtake Cesc Fabregas to grab the pass.
However, the timing of Gualin's pass was good, but his strength was too strong and the pass was very hard. Gao Xiaodong couldn't catch it with his speed, so he could only chase diagonally to the side.
asshole! You shot!
Gao Xiaodong scolded while chasing the ball. Originally, if he got the ball in the middle, he and Falcao would face two central defenders, but now, even if he can catch up with the ball, he can only pass the ball.
The fans in the stands had just cheered for Guarin, but a few seconds later they saw Guarin pass an unreliable pass.
That is Gao Xiaodong's speed, he finally caught up with the ball near the sideline, but at this time Sania was almost there.
If Gao Xiaodong stopped the ball and started to hit the bottom again, he would definitely be caught up by Sagna. Even if Sagna didn't foul, after Gao Xiaodong got rid of him, Arsenal's defensive players would definitely come back.
But going horizontally to the center of the penalty area is not a good choice. At this time, Fabregas is almost back in place, and he is preparing to defend Gao Xiaodong with Sagna on the side. Gao Xiaodong will definitely be hit by Fabre, who has hit the midfielder Garth's interception.
When passing the ball, Falcao was sandwiched between two Arsenal central defenders. Even if Gao Xiaodong could pass the ball, Falcao would hardly have a chance to shoot.
Guarin didn't stop after passing the ball, and cut across the middle, but was caught by Alexander. Song is entangled.
Only Mereles, who was inserted in the back row, was unguarded, but Mereles was still far from the goal, and there were too many variables.
"Shoot! Shoot!"
"Shoot!"
...
The Porto fans in the stands were shouting, they had seen Gao Xiaodong's shocking lob shot against Manchester United from the wing, and hoped that Gao Xiaodong would do it again.
But Gao Xiaodong has a clear understanding of himself, he doesn't know how long it takes to score such a shot, Gao Xiaodong can't shoot like that.
Seeing that there was no better choice, Gao Xiaodong immediately crossed to Mereles, at least Mereles still had a chance to shoot from a distance.
Meireles was very excited. Gao Xiaodong passed the ball. He was only 30 meters away from the goal. If he led it forward, the shooting effect would definitely be better. Fabregas ran to the side and took it A few meters, it was too late for Fabregas to block.
Thinking of this, Mereles slid the ball forward with his arch, and quickly dribbled the ball forward.
Fabregas quickly turned back and ran back, and central defender Julu also quickly intercepted Mereles in the past.
Facing Meireles, in fact, Arsenal only need one player to intercept. Meireles is a bit far from the penalty area, and his personal ability is not that strong. There is no need for two double teams, but Arsenal is very defensive. In a hurry, the running brain was almost starved of oxygen. Fabregas and Julu failed to form a tacit understanding, and both of them went to intercept Merles.
Merreles advanced only two meters forward, and he didn't dare to take it anymore. If he took it down, the angle of shooting and passing the ball would be lost.
Merles was about to shoot when he suddenly found Gao Xiaodong slanting towards the penalty area from the side. Although Sania followed Gao Xiaodong closely, Gao Xiaodong was already half a body ahead.
Believing in Gao Xiaodong's speed, Melelles resolutely gave up the shot, pushed the arch of his foot, and went straight to the ribs of the penalty area, giving Gao Xiaodong an early pass.
Fabregas stretched out his foot to intercept but was a little slower, the ball rolled past his feet.
Seeing the ball passed, the atmosphere in the Dragon Stadium instantly became tense. All the fans opened their eyes wide and looked at the stadium without blinking.
Some impatient Porto fans kept shouting, "Hurry up! Gao Xiaodong! Hurry up!"
And all the Arsenal fans who came to help were shouting: "Pull! Sania pull him! Pull him!"
Sagna is worthy of being a defender. After Melles passed the ball, he decisively reached out to grab Gao Xiaodong's jersey, trying to end Porto's dangerous attack with a yellow card.
Goalkeeper Almunia, who was standing in front of the goal line, was guarding against Melles' long-range shot. Seeing that Melles passed the ball, he rushed out to get the through ball.
When Sania pulled Gao Xiaodong's jersey, Gao Xiaodong was clenching his teeth, bowing his waist for the final sprint.
Sania made a lot of effort, but Gao Xiaodong was rushing forward, and he didn't hold back this time. Gao Xiaodong staggered two steps, but he still stabilized his body. When he caught up with the ball, he shot , Goalkeeper Almunia also arrived, and rushed forward without hesitation.
Gao Xiaodong's shooting action has been completed and cannot be changed. He can only watch the ball whistling and flying straight towards Almunia's face.
There is still time for Almunia to turn his head and dodge, but if he dodges, the goal will be scored. Almunia can't dodge. Facing Gao Xiaodong's powerful shot, Almunia instinctively raised his hand to protect himself before he could raise his hand, the ball hit Almunia's face like a sledgehammer, knocking Almunia's head back and then straightening up He threw himself on the grass in front of Gao Xiaodong.
The ball flew out of the sideline, but at this time everyone's attention was on Almunia, everyone knew Gao Xiaodong's foot strength, Almunia hit the ball firmly, no one knew How are you playing?
Gao Xiaodong squatted down, shook Almunia, saw that Almunia did not respond, quickly raised his hand to call the stretcher and the team doctor to enter the field, pinched Almunia himself, and squeezed his chest.
At this time, the stretcher quickly entered the field, and the team doctor came over and listened to Almunia's chest, and said to Gao Xiaodong: "Don't do it, the heartbeat has recovered." Then he asked the stretcher to carry Almunia out.
Almunia was still in a semi-comatose state after being carried out of the stadium. The team doctor thought it might be a concussion, and quickly ordered an ambulance to take Almunia to a hospital in Porto for treatment.
Seeing that Almunia was injured again, Arsenal fans were dumbfounded. Just now Van Persie was injured, and then the main goalkeeper was injured. This is too bad luck, and both injuries are related to Gao Xiaodong. Arsenal fans vented their anger On Gao Xiaodong's body, he scolded Gao Xiaodong on the pitch.
Wenger's face was livid, and he quickly let the 24-year-old Fabianski, who had only played 4 Premier League games, play to replace the injured Almunia.
Less than 30 minutes into the game, two of Arsenal's absolute main players were injured, and two players were passively replaced. They started off pretty well, but now the players' emotions have plummeted to the bottom. ()
