At 2008 o'clock in the evening on November 11, 22, the match between Manchester City and Arsenal officially began.Today's starting rosters for the two teams are as follows:
Home team: Manchester City, head coach: Mark Hughes, formation: 4-4-1-1

Back four [from right to left]: Sarria, Toure, Gallas, Clichy
Four midfielders [from right to left]: Walcott, Fabregas, Denilson, Nasri
Double forwards: Van Persie, Adebayor
Today, Manchester City's starting lineup has undergone certain changes. Martin Petrov, who has not appeared in the starting lineup for a long time, appeared in the starting lineup.The Brazilian striker Ruo was squeezed to the bench.Indeed, only from the fact that if the Brazilian striker has been the main striker of Manchester City for so long, the scoring efficiency is simply too horrible. Mark Hughes can no longer tolerate the Brazilian striker Ruo.As of today, Mark Rest has finally put the Brazilian in limbo.And Martin Petrov, who had an eye-catching performance in the first half of the game, got this opportunity.
The main striker was sidelined, and Mark Hughes immediately pushed the Brazilian Robinho to the front, allowing Robinho to attack the opponent's defense.For Manchester City to have such a change, Wenger was also taken aback.He also didn't expect that the opponent would change formation in this game, and directly pushed down his main striker, which made Wenger a little annoyed.
Compared with Manchester City, there is also a change in the Arsenal team, that is, the teenager Denilson replaced Diaby.Seeing such a change, Mark Hughes was also a little surprised. Could it be that Arsenal are going to give up relaxing and attack Manchester City today?Moreover, today Walcott, who is faster and more capable of attacking, replaced Eboue, who is more defensive, in the starting lineup. Obviously, he wants to strengthen the offense, which makes Mark Hughes frown slightly.If the Arsenal team is really attacking so crazy, can their side really defend it?
"Chong...chong...chong...little tiger...little tiger..." Just [-] minutes into the game, Arsenal launched a very violent attack.
First of all, Manchester City launched an attack, and the midfielder Kompany caught the ball. Although he is a defender, his passing ability has improved a lot after moving forward.The ball went straight to Ireland in front of him, and he passed the ball very accurately.
However, Ireland did not catch the ball.Maybe it was because the game had just started and Ireland was a little distracted, maybe it was because he didn't expect Kompany to pass the ball directly to him, and he couldn't catch the ball.
"Snapped!"
Ireland stuck out its left foot, trying to stop Kompany's pass, but suddenly found a red figure jumping out from behind him on the left, and even broke the ball one meter away from him...
Denilson!
"It's Denilson! Denilson successfully intercepted the ball! He passed the ball to Walcott on the right, and Arsenal continued to attack! It seems that this young man is in good form recently, otherwise I don't think Mr. Wenger will let this kid replace Diaby to play! It seems that if Manchester City wants to beat Arsenal today, they must first solve Denilson's barrier!" BBC radio commentator John Mortensen explained.
Ireland stared blankly at the man who passed the ball to the right.Then the Brazilian kid rushed up from the middle.A cloud of anger rose in his heart, and he immediately chased after him.
Originally, this was an offensive opportunity for Manchester City.When the players of the Manchester City team rushed up, the ball ran to Arsenal's feet again, so the players hurriedly found their positions, and Walcott on the right had no one to defend him at this time.
"Little Tiger" Walcott has always been a relatively fast player, otherwise he would not be able to play the position of right forward while being a striker.This team is definitely a big threat to Manchester City!
Along the right, Walcott launched a charge!
Manchester City's left-back Zabaleta rushed forward, but Walcott was a very smart player. When Zabaleta was still five or six meters away from him, he chose to pass the ball.
"Snapped!"
The ball fell to the feet of Fabregas who came to the front left of Walcott.
At this time, Elano was following Cesc Fabregas. This was also the task assigned to him by Mark Hughes before the game. Fabregas's speed was not fast, and his header was not good, but his shooting, passing, dribbling and other skills were really proficient. He was entrusted with the important task of captain and was the core of Arsenal's offense.
Therefore, Elano's defensive task is very heavy today.Although Kompany used to complete such a task, but today Mark Hughes gave such a task to the stronger offensive Elano, which made the Manchester City players feel a little inexplicable.However, this was the head coach's arrangement, so everyone didn't gossip.However, Elano's task time is not long. As long as he persists for half an hour, Kompany will be replaced to defend Fabregas.
With his body against Elano, the young captain from the La Masia youth training camp gently stepped on the ball with his toes and stopped.Elanojiu frantically headed towards Fabregas, trying to poke the ball away.At this time, Zabaleta, who had just defended, immediately turned around and rushed down to Fabregas frantically, trying to pinch Fabregas with Elano.
However, at the moment he started, Cesc Fabregas made a sudden kick and hit the ball directly to the right side of the court.At the same time, Walcott, the little tiger, passed by Zabaleta like a red lightning bolt, rushed forward, and chased after the ball.
Manchester City centre-back Michael Richards rushed out immediately, and he would not let Walcott cut into the penalty area from the inside of the wing.If Walcott really cuts close to the penalty area, then their defense will be tied up, which is simply a nightmare for defense.So, Michael Richards frantically rushed to the side penalty area.
However, at the moment he rushed out, Walcott, who rushed to the edge of the penalty area to catch the ball, suddenly kicked up and caught the ball. The ball quickly flew over the head of the rushing Markle Richards, and then fell rapidly, falling in front of Dutch striker Van Persie in the penalty area.
Walcott passed the ball so well, it was quite incisive.
The ball not only easily met the defender Michael Richards' head, but also continued to fall and fell in front of Van Persie.This ball is too suitable for shooting, and such a shooting goalkeeper is not easy to pounce.
Seeing that the ball urgently needs to fall in front of him, and it is very suitable for him to volley directly, Van Persie is overjoyed, without the slightest hesitation, swinging his arms and legs, Van Persie is in the big penalty area, and directly half-turns in front of the small penalty area to volley!
"Oh!"
There was a muffled sound, and the deformed ball flew out from Van Persie's feet in an instant, and shot straight at Manchester City's goal like a sharp arrow.
"SHOOT..." BBC radio commentator John Mortensen roared like a tiger.
The speed of this ball is simply too fast, so fast that it seems to disappear in the blink of an eye.Joe Hart in front of the goal didn't have time to react, the ball flew past him quickly and smashed into Manchester City's goal.When the ball hit the net, Joe Hart in front of the goal reacted and threw it sideways...
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL..." Just as Joe Hart's body hit the turf hard, the howls of the commentators suddenly exploded in the Manchester City Stadium...
All the fans of the Manchester City team felt as if their chest was blocked by something, their chest was stuffy, and they were silent for a long time.
Joe Hart, who was lying on the turf, closed his eyes in pain. Just a few minutes after the game started, the gate they were guarding was broken by the gang of Arsenal. This is really a bad day.
Van Persie, who scored the goal, suddenly raised his hands and stood in the Manchester City stadium, like a victorious general, standing proudly, overlooking the common people.At this time, Adebayor behind him rushed over frantically, jumped hard, and jumped onto Van Persie's back.On Van Persie's back, Adebayor waved his fist fiercely, as if he had scored the ball for a long time!
The Arsenal players were like a group of lunatics who had just rushed out of a lunatic asylum, rushing frantically into the Manchester City penalty area, rushing towards the two extremely crazy boys.
"Van Persie...Van Persie...Van Persie..." At this time, the Arsenal fans cheered frantically in the huge Manchester City Stadium.Although there were few of them today, the voice was still so loud and sang throughout the Manchester City Stadium.
Staring at the Arsenal players in front of him, Manchester City captain Dunn shook his head helplessly.Indeed, he didn't have any chances with this ball. Walcott passed the ball so well that it reached Van Persie.And he himself was leaned behind by Van Persie. At that time, he had no chance of fouling. As long as Van Persie fell to the ground, it was likely to be a penalty kick. Therefore, he did not foul and could not foul!
In the [-]th minute of the first half, Arsenal scored a goal from their striker Robin van Persie, leading Manchester City by one goal!
