The most low-key superstar

Chapter 317 The first home game!
The game started at four o'clock in the afternoon, but it was less than three o'clock, and the Old Trafford stadium was already packed with enthusiastic fans.Manchester United fans who have been away from football for a long time have finally returned to their familiar Red Devils holy land-the theater of dreams in their hearts.

Last season, the team brought them a huge surprise. One record after another was broken, and one by one powerful opponents fell at the feet of the Manchester United Warriors.

But the league is already the fourth round, and the fans kept cursing the officials of the FA. The schedule was so unbearable that the first three games were all away games, which made their league a few days later than others.

Although some fans also went to the away game to cheer for the team, but they were not as happy as at home.

It's still early for the game, the players probably just arrived and haven't come out to warm up, and the fans are greeting each other. After all, most people buy package tickets, although the price of the new season package tickets is different. However, for the people who cannot do without football, they can still grit their teeth and persist.

"John, I'm here."

"Hey, come here..."

"We, for a while..."

The fans who used to fight together began to look for the comrades next to them last season, trying to switch together, or some people were communicating with the newcomers next to them, because they had to cheer for the team together throughout the season.

More people are still in the inherent stands, and they are connecting together, discussing how to give the opponent a blow.

Judging from the attendance rate of the fans, the sales of package tickets for this season should be good. Although there is still a certain amount of tickets left for the opponent in each game, most of them have already been sold.

With the charm of Old Trafford, I believe the club has already made a lot of money just by doing so.

In the locker room, Arsenal's head coach Arsene Wenger opened a door and listened to the hustle and bustle in the stadium. Although the completion of the Emirates Stadium now allows Arsenal to have a new stadium that is enviable by others, but their own Only I know the hardships. The team has been seriously injured in order to build this stadium. It has been struggling for several consecutive seasons and has to rely on cheaper young players to survive. Fortunately, Arsenal has accumulated some in the past few years. Fame, and he has become a reputation for being good at developing young players, but this is not the case.

In the first three games, the team was so powerful that they scored [-] goals. To be honest, Wenger didn't expect that. Prove yourself against your opponents, including Manchester United of course."

"This old fox!" Wenger knew that Ferguson had already known his details. This summer, he was forced to sell Adebayor and Toure in order to improve the club's finances.

Withdrawing his thoughts and closing the door, the players have already warmed up and returned, "I won't say much about tactics, you have already remembered, so, I just want to say one thing, our performance in the first three games was indeed very... how to describe it Well? Well... very eye-catching, yes, it is eye-catching, but I hope you don't forget the opponent we are facing today, don't underestimate the enemy, of course, there is no need to be afraid, rhythm, play our rhythm, no one is you opponent." When he said the last sentence, Wenger waved his fists, his voice hoarse.

"Must win! Beat Manchester United!"

"Revenge! Revenge!..."

Because it was the first game of the season, the atmosphere in the stadium was very warm. The fans who had saved up for a holiday used their singing and cheering to create strong pressure on the visiting team from the very beginning.

Before the start of the game, the Manchester United team specially arranged a special link, that is, Van der Sar and Nicole appeared on the sidelines with their Champions League individual awards and received applause from the fans.

"Now, we welcome Edwin van der Sar, the best goalkeeper in the 08-09 UEFA Champions League, and Nicole, the best player." As soon as the host finished speaking, there was a storm of applause on the stage.

Nicole and Edwin van der Sar also paid tribute to the fans in the stands and expressed their gratitude.

"Guys, today is our first home game of the new season, we can't lose face, so, we need to—"

"Victory!" After Nickell finished speaking, the Manchester United players who started playing shouted loudly.

"Di!"

Game start!
"The game has started. This game will be the focus of this round of games. The number of live broadcast countries has reached a record 211. What we are most concerned about is whether Arsenal can maintain their super firepower, and whether Manchester United can be like Just like last season, continue to suppress Arsenal in an all-round way."

"There is a problem, Arsene Wenger hasn't beaten Ferguson for two seasons, it's a serious problem."

"That's right, today is a day worth looking forward to."

Arsenal got the ball first. Today they have a relatively flexible formation. When attacking, it is 433, and when defending, it becomes 451. However, what makes Wenger dissatisfied is Van Persie. Although he is a good boy, no matter Both technology and spirituality are good, but there is one problem, that is, the power is not enough.

Arshavin was very active on the wing. On the left wing, he frequently used his speed to shake off O'Shea, which made O'Shea, who performed well last season, exhausted.

Fortunately, although Arshavin has repeatedly created murderous intentions on the wing, the Arsenal players who responded in the center were firmly suppressed by Manchester United's defense, especially Evans, who started today, was extremely eye-catching, always using him That strong body made Van Persie stumble, and Van Persie's thin body seemed so helpless at this moment.

Although Arsenal haven't formed a fatal shot yet, Manchester United's state is indeed not very good. The frontcourt always loses the ball too quickly, and it is impossible to form a continuous attack. On the contrary, the opponent's attack is very impressive.

Their midfield commander Cesc Fabregas, Barcelona made a transfer application for Fabregas to Arsenal this season, but was rejected by Fabregas because Wenger had a long-term negotiation with him. The conversation of the time gave him an analysis of his future in Barcelona, ​​that is, he will be a substitute for Harvey, and at Harvey's age, Fabregas needs to pay too much.

In the past three games, Cesc Fabregas performed well, sent a total of 5 assists, and one goal, in very good condition. After the start of the game, facing the most headache for him, Fabregas Gass made full use of the depth of the court, hiding behind Song, constantly using his precise long passes to find loopholes in the opponent's defense, and organized Arsenal's offense in an orderly manner.

Nearly 10 minutes into the game, Manchester United's offense was terrible, today Manchester United arranged three forwards, Valencia got the start, Giggs was on the left, Wayne Rooney was in good form in the middle, and Vernon Letcher Carrick and Nickell formed the midfield, but today Nickel stayed more on the left and gave up the center to Carrick.

You will never always be able to guess the opponent's offense. Even if you guessed it, you can't always defend it. No. 12 minutes, Arsenal did not pass the ball into the penalty area after breaking through the wing, but suddenly Pass the ball back to the center outside the penalty area.

Arshavin's pass has fooled too many people, Carrick has been fooled too, he has returned to the penalty area, and Nicole is still in front of Fabregas.

"Song! There's no one around him—shoot!"

"Foster blocked it, but—dangerous!"

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! The goal is scored! The goal is scored! Bendtner! The ghostly figure suddenly appeared in the most dangerous place, and the shot went into the net!"

The Old Trafford stadium was silent, except for the thousands of Arsenal fans who came from afar. Their wild cheers gave the huge stadium some proper hustle and bustle.

Foster made a mistake, Song's long shot wasn't very sharp or sudden, he could have handled it smarter, but, obviously, he was too nervous to hold the ball or hit it far , but allowed the ball into the six-yard box, which resulted in Bendtner stretching his leg from behind Ferdinand and kicking the ball into the goal.

Arsenal lead by one goal away.

"Arsenal continue to show their status as a super gunner, leading away to last season's five-time champion Manchester United. Now, I take back what I said before the game, maybe Arsenal will indeed surprise us this season."

"Manchester United's big win in the last game made us think that their form has recovered, but from the beginning to the present, their performance is not convincing."

"Next, we have to see if Arsenal can succeed in revenge."

"Get excited, get excited!"

Ferguson was on the field and understood that his players were not excited yet. Even when they won a big victory, they only scored 20 minutes after the start of the game. Before, the opponent kept threatening his goal.

Ferguson also understands, don't worry, it's not the players' problem, the reason is very clear to him, the unsystematic training in the summer is the culprit, he can only rely on the game while adjusting, fortunately, the season just started, the intensity of the game is not very strong, still have a chance.

Thinking of this, Ferguson walked to the sidelines, called Nicole, and whispered something in his ear.

Nicole nodded and ran back to his position. While watching the Arsenal players celebrating there, he recalled Ferguson's words: "Defend for 10 minutes before launching a counterattack. Arsenal must not show their momentum." '

Arsenal is a super young team. Once they go crazy, no matter who the opponent is or how strong they are, it will be a tragedy.

Nickel quickly conveyed the coach's instructions to his teammates, and told Giggs to retreat, the team became 442, and Nickell also began to focus on the destruction of the opponent's offensive organization.

When Manchester United focused on defense, they quickly contained their opponents effectively. Although Arsenal had a lot of attack points, their offensive organization still did not break away from the midfield, especially Cesc Fabregas.

The game between the two sides entered a stalemate. This time was very short. However, scenes of people turning their backs often appeared, and Arsenal's offensive rhythm was messed up.

Wenger frowned and walked to the sidelines, signaling the players to be steady. He was very happy to score the first goal today, but the next game deviated from the track. Arsenal did not take advantage of the situation to continue to expand the score, but mingled with the opponent , This is not the game environment Arsenal is familiar with.

"This is not what we want to see. There is no wonderful cooperation in the game, only muscle confrontation is left."

'That's right, I'm going to grind you down with muscle. 'That's what Ferguson thought.

When the game progressed to the 36th minute, the Arsenal players were so impatient that they finally made a mistake.

Today, Wukong found out that before he knew it, he already had more than 80 words. I remember that I had never written anything more than [-] words before. The pressure really creates miracles!
