626, O court, you are all water
"It's in!"
Zhan Tianjun's voice suddenly rose an octave:
In less than 20 minutes of the opening game, Long Shute blasted Arsenal's goal with a shocking ultra-long-distance world wave! Liverpool, who are playing away, have a one-goal lead! ”
"This ball is quite similar to Zidane's flying immortals back then......"
Zhang Lu was amazed while enjoying the slow-motion replay:
"It's a lot farther away than Zinedine Zidane's, and it's obviously more difficult for Lonshette to make a quick brake, to put a bow in a pose, and then to press the ball down and hit the corner."
Shooting directly at the ball during the run is indeed very difficult even for superstars of the level of Messi and Ronaldo, so Long Shute also celebrated a little happily after completing the shot.
With his arms outstretched, he trotted all the way to the corner flag area, then slid to his knees ten meters domineeringly, and finally let out a triumphant roar at the camera!
And then...... A raindrop the size of a soybean smashed into his mouth!
-
"Flowing ......"
"Bang Bang Bang ......"
"Boom la la ......"
Almost in the blink of an eye, the otherwise breezy Emirates Stadium became pouring rain.
The prepared fans in the stands took out their raincoats from under their seats and put them on themselves.
But the players on the field were doused in a matter of seconds......
“MMP! Won't it rain when I'm done celebrating? ”
Ronshette pursed his lips and stood up from the already wet turf.
It's already very good, the league played until the third round, and I really saw the fickle weather in the British Isles, and God in London is already very face-saving!
-
“FxxK!”
Wenger, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help but curse.
TechnicalStream Soccer is most afraid of messy weather, because slippery turf and strong wind and rain can cause unpredictable changes in football, and the ground they rely on will definitely be greatly compromised!
If every game is not windy or rainy, and the turf is dry and fresh, I can win at least ten more games a season for Arsenal!
Believe it or not?!
-
The rain peaked in just three minutes, and the stadium quickly became a swamp.
Although the Emirates Stadium has an extremely advanced water seepage system, it could not withstand such a strong rainstorm.
- It's like a classic math problem: given that the maximum volume of a pitch is 500 cubic meters, the flow rate of the inlet pipe is 10 cubic meters per second, and the flow rate of the drain pipe is 5 cubic meters per second, how long can the entire stadium be flooded?
The torrential rain not only made the playing field slippery, making it more difficult to pass, control the ball, and shoot the ball, but also made the players afraid to take a step when running, otherwise they would slip and fall into the mud puddle if they were not careful......
In addition, the continuous rain curtain also greatly narrowed everyone's visual distance, even Ozil, who had a top-level vision, could only widen his eyes, and then shook his head and smiled bitterly at the white rain curtain.
In such a heavy rain, no subtle technique was of any use, and even Ronshit had to give up his speed advantage and hold the middle with Emre Can.
But this does not mean that everyone can only watch the show in the face of heavy rain, and in the slippery field, long-range shooting has become a nightmare for both goalkeepers.
On Arsenal's side, Cazorla and Sanchez both have a long-range shot, and Ramsey can occasionally make world waves.
On Liverpool's side, the midfielders led by Lonshette can probably make a kick, not to mention that No. 8 and No. 10 are the top sharpshooters in Europe.
So, from the 20th minute, the picture of the game became a burst of legs in the midfield of both sides, and the two goalkeepers of Cech and Mignolet competed to make a save......
But even the strongest walls have gaps, and the two goalkeepers finally collapsed on the goal line after struggling for more than ten minutes.
In the 31st minute, Cech was the first to lose, and Coutinho, after three consecutive shots, finally broke through the Arsenal defence with a tricky and bizarre arrow to extend the score to 2-0.
But it didn't last long, and just six minutes later, Cazorla threatened Liverpool's goal with a surprise free-kick.
Mignolet made a splash of character, but was hit by Ramsey, who was ambushed behind the wall.
Just as Ramsey was about to raise his arms in celebration, the referee on the touchline raised the flag aloft to signal that the Welsh midfielder was offside, and Wenger was so angry that he jumped on the sidelines.
"How is this possible offside? It's definitely a good goal! ”
The French professor chattered in the ear of the fourth official.
Then the fourth official asked him rhetorically:
"The rain is so heavy, you touch your conscience, can you really see who scored the goal just now?"
Wenger snorted a few words, and finally had to sit back......
-
"Drip, drip, drip!"
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, both the leading side and the lagging side couldn't wait to get into the dressing room.
The logistics staff hurriedly threw wide towels to the soaking wet players, telling them to dry themselves as soon as possible.
The players did not shy away from it, and simply took off their slimy and dirty jerseys, revealing their wet bodies, and a few bold ones even directly stripped off their close-fitting shorts, and accelerated the evaporation of water vapor by continuous shaking, and the entire locker room was suddenly filled with a strong male hormone.
"Alright, don't shake your sausages!"
Rogers frowned and clapped his hands:
"I have to remind you that a two-goal lead is not a safe one, in fact, if it wasn't for the referee raising the flag, Ramsey's goal would have happened.
In the second half, I asked you to shrink your formation, increase possession at the back, reduce unnecessary conceding balls, and waste some time when necessary, you know what I mean? ”
Emre Can continued:
"To understand is to understand, but ...... This turf is so dirty, it's hard to lie on it! ”
The players were laughing.
Rogers nodded, and then grabbed Long Shute, who was about to go out:
"You're the captain now and I want you to control the tempo and lead by two goals...... I'm not satisfied! ”
Long Shut re-tied the armband:
"Only one goal...... I'm not satisfied! ”
-
After a 15-minute break, the rain has become much lighter, and with the modern facilities of the Emirates Stadium, most of the water on the turf has been drained.
But that doesn't mean players can run around the pitch as the turf is still very slippery after the rain and players on both sides still need to be careful to step or they can easily fall on all fours.
Almost at the same time, Ramsey and James Milner fell to the ground in a physical confrontation, and the two men shook their heads repeatedly after getting up, and then pointed to their respective ankles to request a substitution, leaving Liverpool and Arsenal each with a big loss.
Of course, Milner's role for Liverpool is nowhere near as important as Ramsey's for Arsenal, as Arsenal's midfield did not have a spare player to replace the Welshman, substitute captain Mikel Arteta was completely unable to keep up with Ronshette in defence, and his midfield partner Coquelin had to foul again in the 65th minute in order to stop the Reds' number eight, and two yellows turned into one red were sent off.
Coquelin is worthy of the French iron waist, this flying shovel, even Ronshette has to lie on the sidelines for 5 minutes, and there is no difference in the number of people between the two sides for the time being......
Philippe Coutinho took advantage of the free-kick opportunity from the foul to set up Slovakia's skatel Skrtel's header to make it 3-0.
With only 20 minutes left, the look on the professor's face was hopeless.
The Arsenal boss focused more on the zipper of his raincoat, which he tugged on repeatedly but could not get it neatly closed......
Then he saw the number 8 back on the pitch.
As soon as he came on the pitch, he managed to get the ball from Alexis Sanchez's feet, and then quickly made his way through the midfield with his team-mates in a one-one-two, finding a green path from the Arsenal defence without much difficulty.
Sanchez chased him all the way for nearly 50 meters, but still couldn't grab his jersey, and could only watch as the Reds No. 8 slammed past Chambers in the muddy rain and picked the ball into the goal with his toes!
4-0!
Wenger's hands trembled, and the zipper that had just been closed burst again!
This damn rain!
He hates the rain!
