MTL - Strong Waist-Chapter 925 The Barrels of the Hammers
"Arsenal is still patiently falling. They are constantly looking for opportunities outside the penalty area, but facing the iron barrel formation put out by West Ham United, they have not found a good way for a while!"
West Ham United's iron barrel formation made it very difficult for Arsenal to play. The most important thing is that they are not fooled, they will hardly run out of the penalty area, and they will not even give them a chance.
Arsenal still patiently began to fall, and even Iwobi performed horizontal dribbling in the middle several times, hoping to seduce the opponent's players to run out of the penalty area, but the opponent just couldn't be fooled.
Come and go, the commentator can see more.
"Arsenal is actively seducing West Ham United to run out to grab the ball and expand some running space inside the penalty area."
However, West Ham United still did not run out to press.
"These guys are too unpursuing!"
Iwobi said with a depressed face.
He has exposed so many flaws, and the distance when waving the ball has become a little longer, but these guys didn't make any moves.
No matter how seduced she is, she won't come out.
Really intend to stick to it, to the end?
Lucy also felt extremely depressed, but he still said that.
"Be patient! Take your time!"
Arsenal are still trying, they control most of the possession rate on the field, this may be the game where Arsenal has the most ball possession this season.
But facing West Ham United, which has no desires and desires, they really have no good way.
Time passed by little by little.
Finally at 31 minutes, they successfully seduced two West Ham United players.
Saka's consecutive lateral dribbles irritated the violent West Ham United players and rushed out to press.
At the critical moment, Saka completed the pass before being brought down by the opponent.
Iwobi took the ball from the wing, and he failed to find Giroud in the first place.
This also caused Giroud to wait for a second or two after running into position, and this one or two seconds was enough for the opposing player to react and quickly post it.
"Iwobi! The ball was not decisive enough, and this opportunity was not used!"
"Kay didn't step forward. If the ball is handed over to Kai, maybe there will be better results!"
Paul Merson shook his head with emotion, and then said again; "West Ham must resist the temptation!"
West Ham United took the initiative to press once. They did not cause the consequences of conceding the ball. Although they also failed to grab the ball, they failed to make Arsenal threaten their goal.
Maybe, can you really fight back?
"Defend! Defend!"
An angry shout from the head coach dispelled their thoughts.
They returned to the penalty area and continued to build the iron barrel formation.
Arsenal is also conducting the transmission patiently again.
Time passed by little by little.
The first half is coming to an end, but Arsenal still haven't found a chance.
Even if Lucky is standing forward, West Ham also has no plans to approach.
Until the end of the first half, they failed to seduce the West Ham United players to run out of the penalty area again.
Arsenal's dressing room.
"These guys don't want to rush out at all. If it doesn't work, just attack!"
"There is still some hope for a breakthrough and strong attack from the side. If the transmission continues like this, the opponent will never come out, and we will only become more and more passive!"
“Need to put some pressure on them!”
Arsenal players said anxiously.
After Mourinho and Lucky looked at each other, Mourinho said; "Continue to maintain the tactics of the first half and play patiently!"
Hearing Mourinho's words, these gunmen could only sigh secretly.
At this moment, their mood is extremely depressed.
On the West Ham side, the head coach has repeatedly emphasized the need to defend.
The initiative in the first half made the head coach feel very uncomfortable. He knows that West Ham United is not a group of good babies.
As one of the worst-tempered teams in the Premier League, their players are a group of rebellious players.
This is also the biggest problem of West Ham United. In addition, the head coach has not yet fully controlled the locker room, so there may be situations where players act out of temper.
At the same time, Paul Merson and Dixon were also analyzing on the commentary stage.
"West Ham United scored the first goal in five minutes in the first half. This is something that none of us could have imagined."
"But we have to admit that West Ham United played very smartly!"
"Arsenal, on the other hand, is gradually recovering from the aftermath of the World War II. They lack concentration and enter the game state too slowly!"
Dixon sighed; "This is the sequelae of the intensive schedule!"
Arsenal in the past would never make this kind of mistake.
They entered the game faster than anyone else, and they started extremely cautiously.
But while wearing down their energy game after game, it is also shaking their state.
This game is a typical inattention and was caught by West Ham United.
Although Arsenal want to make up for it, can they really seize the opportunity?
During the commentator's words, players from both sides walked out of the player channel.
The second half began, and the two sides changed sides to fight.
The second half of the game started, almost the same as the first half.
Arsenal still surrounded the opponent's big penalty area, while West Ham United looked like they were sticking to it.
For a full 30 minutes, West Ham United did not give any flaws.
But with the passage of time, and the lack of game time, these Hammer players began to move around,
Lucky and the Arsenal players were also pleasantly surprised by this.
I am not afraid that you have the intention to fight back, but I am afraid that you will not move.
In the 81st minute, during a horizontal dribble by Iwobi, Joao Mario suddenly thrust forward and extended his foot to poke the ball out.
At this moment, Joao Mario had a hint of surprise on his face.
As long as he waded five meters away, he could leave most of the Arsenal players behind and go in to create a shot for his centre-forward.
Once the victory is won, he will pass and shoot, which is definitely the biggest hero in this game.
Thinking about this, Joao Mario speeded up.
When he was about to catch up with the ball, his eyes flickered.
A figure quickly wiped past his eyes, and took the ball away at the same time.
Joao Mario turned his head and looked over, he saw Kante passing the ball to Lucky.
At this time, most of the West Ham United players have already ran out of the penalty area in order to cooperate with Joao Mario's counterattack.
"Come on! Pull back!"
Seeing Le Kai holding the ball, these players panicked and wanted to retreat.
But where their legs have no passing speed.
Lucky didn't stop the ball directly, hanging in the middle.
The ball presents an arc and flies to the front of Giroud's running accurately.
Under the interference of the opponent's central defender, Giroud stubbornly resisted the confrontation and completed the take-off. In Luckai's extremely comfortable pass, he slammed the ball towards the ground on the right.
The ball hit the ground and immediately flew into the goal from the upper edge of the goalkeeper's arm.
Arsenal equalized in 82 minutes.
"Goal!! Goal! Giroud!"
"Arsenal finally equalized in the 82nd minute after a patient fall."
"West Ham defended for 80 minutes, but they couldn't resist the temptation after all!"
This goal made the Arsenal players a little relieved.
But they didn't mean to end the offense.
After a simple celebration, they returned to halftime.
After the kick-off, West Ham United didn't want the ball at all. Arsenal grabbed the ball and immediately used the two sides to start a strong attack.
"Arsenal does not intend to maintain this score, yes, they want to compete for the championship, and every victory of theirs is extremely critical!"
"After West Ham United lost the ball, they continued to retreat and defend. Although they may have lost hope of victory, they can still score an away game. This is something they absolutely don't want to lose."
As the commentator said, Arsenal wanted to win, but after West Ham lost hope of winning, they began to want a draw.
But Arsenal's offense has become more and more tough, especially from the two wings. The tough breakthroughs of Saka and Aubameyang put them under a lot of pressure.
Facing Arsenal's strong breakthrough, the West Ham United players are getting more and more frightened,
These two guys tried their best to drill in, and they didn't dare to make too much movement in the restricted area.
Once any action constitutes a foul, it will be a penalty.
But can they really resist?
And after the score was equalized, their mentality was different, and they became more nervous, and nervousness makes people make mistakes.
