Chapter 1139 Choking Rhythm
"Arsenal's suffocating defense!"
The Spanish commentator couldn't resist making such an assessment.
Barcelona has faced many defensive lines like iron walls, and even Real Madrid under Mourinho's coaching period has extremely strong defensive capabilities.
But these have an almost dimensional gap with Arsenal's defense.
Arsenal's defense was divided into two parts.
One is the defense of the midfield line, and the other is the defense of the back line.
The current Barcelona even have difficulty breaking through the defense of the midfield line, let alone close to the goal.
"Arsenal's central defenders are happy. The two central defenders, Hummels and Jimenez, have very little appearance rate. This is a happy thing for any team, which means that their defense is extremely tough. .”
"Just like in this game, after kicking back to the counter-attack tactics, Arsenal's overall defense is amazing."
The German commentator who was explaining the game couldn't help feeling this way.
At the same time, the French commentator couldn't help sighing: "In Ligue [-], we can see Paris Saint-Germain's sharp offensive rhythm. They can make wonderful frontcourt cooperation and score against any team. Goals, but against Arsenal's level of defense, can Paris Saint-Germain still play that sharp attack?"
"So, Paris Saint-Germain must break through the limitations of the local league and have stronger enemies throughout Europe!"
Italian commentator: "Throughout the season, the Premier League teams have performed very well in the Champions League. Except for Liverpool and Arsenal, the other three teams have maintained very good records, which is consistent with their continuous success in the local league. Something to do with the collision at Arsenal!"
"Arsenal's strong defense not only makes itself stronger, but also spurs other teams in the Premier League to become stronger!"
"We need to be wary of any Premier League team, because they have all been tortured by the Arsenal defense!"
Inter Milan, who is waiting for the away Champions League game in the Netherlands, is also watching this game.
After seeing Arsenal's defense, they were also silent.
"It feels like in the first round, Arsenal didn't play their best at all!"
Perisic made such an assessment.
The reason why he has this idea is largely because when they played Arsenal in the first leg, they still felt that they still had some attacking opportunities.
But after entering the second round, just like this game, Arsenal didn't give any chance at all.
Stronger than Barcelona, stronger than Messi can only sigh in front of Arsenal's defense.
Yes!
Arsenal's defense can really be called the 'Wall of Sighs' these days.
At this time, Inter Milan is also considering how to face such an Arsenal.
They even thought about whether to give up the game against Arsenal and directly smashed to the ground against Barcelona.
How difficult it is for Barcelona to play at this time, they can see how embarrassed they will be when dealing with Arsenal.
"Barcelona still can't get a chance to push forward."
The Spanish commentator is worried.
One goal behind, there is actually not much difference, but the problem is that Barcelona's overall offense has not improved at all.
"Kay and Kanter are two midfielders!"
The tone of the Spanish commentator was full of helplessness.
But any team can't help but sigh when they see this level of defensive midfielder defense.
In front of the coaching bench, Barcelona coach Ernesto Valverde can no longer sit still.
He stood on the sideline, nervously watching the situation on the court, his eyes flickering again and again.
The situation at this time is very bad for Barcelona, but the problem is that he doesn't know how to solve the problem.
If they can't break through Arsenal's two defensive midfielders, then their offense will never improve.
At this time, Messi is also a little exhausted.
If you can't play offensively, breakthroughs are even more impossible.
This puts Messi and Barcelona in an extremely passive situation.
Messi's breakthroughs have been frustrated again and again, and even Barcelona's advancement has fallen into the quagmire.
At this time, Messi was sweating profusely, and even his hair became a little messy.
Fans seldom see Messi in such a mess, so they can't help but feel a little worried.
"Barcelona's offense almost relies on Messi to advance. The problem is that when Messi breaks through, Barcelona can't give enough support!"
"In the past, Barcelona had Xavi, Iniesta, and many players who could help Messi in the midfield. Even Messi didn't have to drop back to catch the ball. He only needed to wait for the ball to pass in the frontcourt. , but the current situation is that Messi is alone in the frontcourt!"
There was a little emotion in Zhan Jun's tone.
In the past, the universe team was extremely sharp in terms of propulsion and pass control, and it could even be called art.
But looking at Barcelona today, in the press again and again, the ball is passed in a panic.
In the face of Arsenal's counterattack, it was even more embarrassing.
It is difficult for such Barcelona to form a connection with the previous Cosmos team.
Even Messi was severely frozen in this game, and encountered the biggest challenge of his career.
And it's not just Messi in a hurry.
Even Coutinho, Suarez and others are anxious.
In fact, there is not much they can do at this time.
Coutinho watched anxiously, he wanted to bring some changes to the team.
For this reason, he took the initiative to approach Messi.
"here!"
Coutinho calls for a pass.
Messi was almost double-teaming, dribbling and spiking the ball constantly, and finally passed the ball before falling to the ground.
But as soon as Coutinho got the ball, Kanter immediately posted it.
"Damn!"
Coutinho cursed secretly, he resisted Kanter and prevented the opponent from approaching the ball.
At the same time, look for opportunities to pass the ball.
At this time, Suarez also retreated.
"Come on!"
Suarez yelled.
But just as Coutinho was about to make a pass, Wilshere suddenly withdrew from the frontcourt and waited on the passing channel, looking like he was about to steal the ball.
This caused Coutinho's pass to be suppressed.
"Shit!"
Coutinho cursed again.
At this time, he has dragged on for too long, if the ball is not played.
In desperation, Coutinho could only pass back.
"It's a pass back again. It's really desperate. Barcelona's advance encountered tight defense at the midfield line. They didn't even see the shadow of Arsenal's defensive players!"
After Busquets stopped the ball, he didn't dare to hold the ball for too long, and immediately passed the ball to Arthur on the side.
But as soon as Arthur got the ball, Wilshere and Aubameyang rushed over, and the two instantly formed a circle.
Artur was stuck in it, unable to extricate himself.
"Dangerous!"
"Chance!"
The Spanish commentator and the Sky Sports commentator shouted at the same time.
Facing the pressing of the two, Arthur did not have the ability to protect the ball like Messi, so he tried to turn around and want to pass back.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw Giroud blocking his return channel.
Ruined!
At this moment, Artur felt a chill in his heart.
At this time, Aubameyang stabbed the ball out.
The ball just hit Giroud.
When Giroud moved to the side, he just formed a cooperation with Aubameyang who advanced forward before completing the steal.
And Aubameyang's choice was also very decisive, directly hitting the ball into the penalty area.
The instantaneous rhythm change made it difficult for Barcelona to adapt, and the full-back Alba failed to catch up in the first time, so he could only watch Aubameyang enter the penalty area.
"Aubameyang, enter the penalty area, Arsenal's chance!"
After Aubameyang entered the penalty area, he immediately adjusted his footsteps, and at the moment the goalkeeper attacked, he kicked and shot.
The ball just passed the front of the goalkeeper's arm and flew towards the near corner.
Pique retreated at full speed and rushed to the goal line.
But still failed to catch up with the speed of the ball. At the moment approaching the goal line, Pique tried to hook his foot, but the hook was empty.
The ball went into the net.
Arsenal scored another goal in 34 minutes.
In the first half, Arsenal led by two goals.
"Goal!!!!!! Aubameyang!!!!"
"Arsenal led by two goals in the first half, Aubameyang's counterattack with a steal and a decisive shot helped Arsenal expand the score!"
"Barcelona encountered difficulty in advancing and had to retreat to reorganize, but Arsenal would not give them a chance to reorganize. Their pressing in the frontcourt played a role, and they counterattacked instantly and scored!"
