Chapter 35: It's so fast

In the stands, Alex Ferguson also came to the stadium to watch the game, and in addition to him, Manchester United legend Bobby Charlton also came to the scene.

But at the moment, they were all bruised in the face.

"Ferguson, just look at the look on his face and you know how unhappy he is now." Andy Gray said.

The hand of time is turned back a little.

In the fifth minute, Arsenal played a brilliant counter-attack, Ramsey crossed to the right side of the box, Ozil sent a low cross from the right side of the box, and the unguarded Sanchez grabbed the ball before De Gea and fired the ball into the near corner.

De Gea got up from the grass and yelled at the players at the back: "Keep an eye on him!! How could he be allowed to catch the ball so easily!!! ”

Alexis Sanchez came in from midfield.

Herrera patted his chest, indicating that the pot was his, and that he had failed to keep an eye on Sanchez, who was inserting in front.

Carlo Ancelotti turned angrily on the sidelines after watching Alexis Sanchez hit the ball with his backheel into the United goal, before sitting back in the dugout, still chattering on his lips. Apparently he was very unhappy with the defensive performance of the United players this time.

On the other hand, the picture of Arsene Wenger and his assistants celebrating is in stark contrast to the frowning faces of Manchester United's coaches.

With a goal in the opening five minutes, Arsenal got off to a dream start.

However, it is said that there is no equal, but Arsenal seems to occupy all the time and place in this game, and only a minute after this goal, Arsenal scored again!!

Seventy-four seconds after the last goal, to be exact, Arsenal launched another counter-attack after breaking the ball at the back.

Cazorla dribbled past Di Maria and tucked the ball straight to Sanchez before Di Maria could pull him down.

Sanchez did not stop the ball, but passed the ball directly to Ozil with his backheel, so that Herrera, who was in charge of marking Sanchez, did not even get a chance to foul.

Ozil didn't stop after winning the ball, but played a through ball to the left side of the box.

Walcott used his speed to shake off Smalling, catch up with the ball and knock it back into the middle of the box. The unmarked Mesut Ozil slotted a shot into the far corner from 14 yards, and even David De Gea had no time to react.

“GOOOOAL!!” Andy Gray froze for a moment before shouting.

No one expected that Arsenal would score two goals in just two minutes.

"Ozil! Beautiful goal, perfect counter-attack! ”

After the goal, Mesut Ozil rushed to the corner flag area and came straight to a long kneeling. The rest of the Arsenal players pounced on them and celebrated wildly right under the noses of the United players.

"Ozil!! He fired a light shot through United's defence. With a two-goal lead, it was the perfect start for Arsenal at home! Andy Gray said, "Look at the smile on Wenger's face, he must be happy by now that his side finally had a chance to beat Manchester United tonight." ”

'It was a terrible start for Carlo Ancelotti........ less than seven minutes into the game, which meant that the game was two goals down from the start. Could Manchester United's winning streak come to an abrupt end at the Emirates Stadium? ”

The televised broadcast gave Ancelotti a close-up at the right time.

He stood up from the dugout, stood on the sidelines and yelled at the field, spread his hands, and turned to his assistant Ryan Giggs to say something, the anger and frustration on his face palpable.

Obviously, conceding goals so early, and conceding two goals at once, was completely out of his pre-game plan.

This game is difficult.

Judging from the scene, Arsenal's attack this time is really beautiful. With a back-to-back kick out, the United players didn't keep up with the rhythm of Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil. With the instigation of the two stars, especially Mesut Ozil's creative passing, United's defenders, whether it was the three midfielders in midfield or the two centre-backs, were unable to keep up with the pace. Arsenal almost got the ball into the Manchester United goal.

Although Arsenal's temperament has been criticized, it has to be admitted that Wenger has successfully transformed Arsenal into a team that is unique in the Premier League, and they advocate ground cooperation and play much more gorgeous than other Premier League teams.

Ancelotti was helpless because he saw it thoroughly. Arsenal's attack was well organised this time, with Mesut Ozil winning the ball and other players constantly running, while Mesut Ozil and Sanchez completely led and disrupted United's defence.

Carlo Ancelotti's back three will not be afraid of facing tough opponents against Manchester United, but the biggest concern in Manchester United's current squad is that this squad has not been running in for a long time, and there is no way for the players to reach a very tacit understanding with each other. When the opponent constantly disrupts the defense by running and passing, if the complement between the back and the defender is not in place, it is easy to be penetrated by a team like Arsenal that is good at short passing.

The only good thing is that there aren't many teams like Arsenal in the Premier League, and the game is now less than ten minutes away. Carlo Ancelotti can now only pin his hopes on United's attack.

Fortunately, in terms of attack, Li Qingshan has never disappointed Ancelotti.

............

The game continued.

With two goals down, Manchester United have to attack.

Carlo Ancelotti's pre-match plan was to play steadily in the first half of the away game and see the opponent's strategy first.

But suddenly he conceded two goals, making Ancelotti's pre-match arrangements useless.

There is only one path in front of Manchester United now, and that is to attack. If United can pull a goal back and make it 2-1 before half-time, there is still hope of a comeback.

There is no need for Arsenal to press up and play against Manchester United, they have a two-goal advantage in hand, and they can safely drop back and play Manchester United's counter-attack comfortably. Manchester United have to press the attack anyway.

It's only natural for Arsenal's players to think this way, and with a two-goal lead, strengthening the defence and looking for opportunities to counter-attack is a choice that almost every team makes.

But Arsene Wenger couldn't sit still after watching from the sidelines for a few minutes.

Arsenal's retreat gave Manchester United a chance to press with confidence, and Arsenal didn't talk about counterattacking, their goal was in danger several times under the impact of Li Qingshan.

Playing positional battles is a complicated and difficult thing for most teams, but for Manchester United, it can simplify the whole process.

How simple is it, Manchester United's players only need a little space to pass the ball into the penalty area, and let Li Qingshan decide what to do.

Anyway, almost all high-altitude balls, Li Qingshan can always grab the high point.

This ability is really terrifying.
