Chapter 1215 Midfield Adjustment
The first half time is coming to an end, and the two teams are currently tied 1:1.
Although there are not many goals, the content of the game is very exciting.
Whether it is Manchester City's penetrating offense or Arsenal's linkage defense, these are telling everyone how high the quality of this game is.
In particular, the performance of the players on both sides is also extremely good.
They were able to seize the only chance to score goals, and at the same time they were able to play smooth and tacit cooperation.
Manchester City's pass control and Arsenal's counterattack are all extremely sharp.
Manchester City equalized in nearly 40 minutes, which prevented Arsenal from expanding their advantage in the lead.
Manchester City also breathed a sigh of relief based on this goal.
This goal can enable Manchester City to maintain sufficient midfield control. You must know that for Manchester City, once they lose the rhythm of the midfield, it is tantamount to losing the game.
The game time has entered 40 minutes unknowingly, and it is only 5 minutes before the end of the first half.
5 minutes, whether it is long or not, is not short.
But for Arsenal and Manchester City, it doesn't make much sense.
On the one hand, they consumed too much physical energy in the confrontation in the first half.
On the other hand, there is no possibility of tearing apart the opponent's defense in this short 5 minutes, so it is better to save some energy to prepare for the second half.
For this reason, the tacit understanding between the two sides died down, and the rhythm of the game finally eased down.
"Both sides slowed down a bit and obviously they were going to put more energy into the second half."
"For Manchester City and Arsenal, they need to make more efforts to win this game, at least they need to be more flexible in tactical changes."
In the commentator's words, the last 5 minutes also passed slowly.
When the halftime whistle sounded, the game temporarily entered a truce.
The players on both sides played a 45:1 tie in the entire 1 minutes, and the two teams will play such a game in the second half, which makes many people look forward to it.
After returning to the locker room, the Manchester City players began to actively discuss.
"Our offense is working, so we need to be more aggressive!"
"I can't say that. Arsenal's midfield defense still puts us under a lot of pressure. Our priority is how to get through this stage."
De Bruyne also spoke: "I think for us or Arsenal, the whole situation is stalemate. Our offense is effective, and Arsenal's defense is equally strong, and the key to this game is here."
"For us, offense is inevitable. We don't have a defensive system like Arsenal, and we can't enter the joint defense as stably as they do, so we need to suppress more with an offensive posture."
"Once our offense can't give them pressure, then Arsenal will immediately use the counterattack method to give us a hard hit!"
De Bruyne is very clear that throughout the first half of the game, both sides played their own distinctive characteristics.
The goals of both sides are based on this characteristic. For this reason, how to get more opportunities in the second half is the key.
At this moment Guardiola clapped his hands to interrupt everyone's conversation and said: "Our performance in the first half was still very good, especially the goal that equalized the score. Of course, it would be better if we scored first."
"Our characteristic is offense and conduction, so on this basis, we need to make fewer passing mistakes in the frontcourt, and use offense to press Arsenal's defense as much as possible, so that we can get more opportunities, and everything needs You go create!"
"I won't limit how you play, but we must play the situation we want. This is the only way for us to win."
Guardiola said in a deep voice: "We have to stop Arsenal here and interrupt their unbeaten record. I think you understand why we are doing this."
Everyone's expressions became serious, and they knew this better than anyone else.
On the other side, in Arsenal's locker room, Mourinho was also explaining the problems of the second half.
"We conceded the ball in the first half because of slack. I have told you more than once that when defending, you should not only look at where the ball is, but also pay attention to where the opponent's players are! Where can you be?" pose a threat, etc.”
"Our problem is that in the defensive position, too much attention is paid to the ball instead of the running players."
Mourinho said seriously: "In the second half, this is an issue that must be focused on. Manchester City's offense seems to be conduction, but it is basically penetration."
The Arsenal players nodded slightly, they probably understood what Mourinho meant.
During the halftime break, the players were trying their best to recover their physical fitness.
After the whole first half ended, it consumed a lot of their physical energy, so they needed to race against time.
At the same time, they also had second-half questions in their minds.
After all, with the current championship trophy, any detail in the next 45 minutes will affect the ownership of this championship.
beep! !
Outside the locker room, the whistle sounded.
It was the whistle at the end of half-time, a reminder that it was time to get back on the pitch.
One by one, the players got up from the bench and set foot on their own battlefield again.
And they were greeted with waves of cheers.
Wow! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ——
Both Manchester City and Arsenal fans greeted the game with their loudest cheers.
This may be their first/second championship. For this reason, as fans, they are also extremely excited.
Of course, under the passionate mood, they are also apprehensive about the game.
After all, in 45 minutes, the two sides were tied.
"In the first half, Manchester City had 68% possession of the ball. Arsenal had 32%. It can be said that Manchester City controlled more ball possession."
"The threatening offenses of the two sides were Manchester City shot 10 times, hit the frame range 4 times, and scored a goal. Arsenal had 9 shots, hit the frame range 5 times, and scored a goal!"
"In the limited chances to counter-attack, Arsenal's kicks were of high quality."
"While Manchester City faced Arsenal's defense, their shots were not so easy."
"On the whole, Manchester City has more possession of the ball and they have carried out more attacks. They have more dominance and give more attacking pressure at the same time."
"Arsenal is more able to grasp the opportunity to counterattack. For Manchester City, we must be careful about Arsenal's counterattack."
At this time, players from both sides have come to their respective halfs.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought.
Arsenal took the lead.
When the referee's whistle sounded, Arsenal tried to hoist the ball to the backcourt after passing the ball back and play a surprise attack.
However, Manchester City was obviously prepared, and the speed of the retreat was very fast, which did not allow Arsenal's sneak attack to succeed.
But Arsenal didn't care too much.
For them, this is just an attempt, and if they lose the ball, they will lose the ball, as long as it is not in a dangerous place. After all, Arsenal does not have that much demand for the ball.
After the ball was transferred to Manchester City, the Arsenal players quickly retreated and began to deploy their defenses.
Manchester City also accelerated the pace of offense.
When the offense came to Arsenal's big penalty area again, after Manchester City passed several times, David Silva suddenly stepped forward and shot hard.
"David Silva's shot from long distance! It's a high quality kick, Martinez!!! Concentrated save, very quick reaction!"
"Although David Silva's long-range shot was very sudden, Martinez was very focused and did not give Manchester City a chance to shoot a cold arrow!"
"At the beginning of the game, both sides tried a sudden attack, but Manchester City's effect was better."
"This long-range shot also shows that David Silva's long-range shots are in a hot state. Arsenal can't let David Silva kick at will in such a dangerous place."
Manchester City put a lot of pressure at the beginning of the second half.
In this regard, Arsenal became slightly nervous.
However, they still have confidence in their defense, this is just an accident.
Next time, they won't let David Silva kick so suddenly.
Manchester City's corner kick tactics were ruined by Arsenal.
Based on this destruction, Arsenal also quickly launched a counterattack.
Dembele hit the goal directly from nearly 10 meters away
This shot flew towards the near corner quickly and bounced off the ground, it was difficult to predict the position.
But Morais still used his body to complete the resistance to avoid any accidents.
After Manchester City took the lead, Arsenal also immediately responded!
