'Arsenal are in trouble. The commentator said, "They didn't seem to expect Nottingham Forest to suddenly attack in full force on their home turf......

The Arsenal fans in the stands were booing incessantly to disrupt Forest.

Judging by the scene, Arsenal are indeed in trouble......

As Donn said, Arsene Wenger was completely unaware of Forest's uncharacteristically attacking rush at Arsenal's home turf.

Just five minutes into the game, Nottingham Forest twice threatened Almunia's goal.

This caused Arsenal to panic a bit, with the backline full of holes during that period.

Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, held the initiative firmly in the game.

The ball was at their feet and Arsenal were left exhausted. Ill-prepared for the attack on Nottingham Forest, they didn't even know what to do. Some people want to follow Arsene Wenger's pre-game tactics, while others feel that the situation is urgent and they should defend first and then counter-attack.

If the two sides do not agree on the same page, they will not be able to work together on the field. If you can't join forces, you will be drilled by your opponent.

Donn could clearly see the disconnect between Arsenal and Arsenal off the pitch, and it was a great opportunity for Forest to score......

He turned his head to look at Arsene Wenger, who was sitting in the dugout, the Frenchman was expressionless and didn't mean to make any adjustments. Maybe he believes in his team? Maybe he hasn't figured out Nottingham Forest's intentions yet and doesn't want to act rashly?

No matter what, no matter what he thinks, he can't change this fact. The fact is that Nottingham Forest now have the upper hand.

Taking advantage of the opening five minutes, Nottingham Forest managed to turn away to home.

They then continued their assault on Arsenal's heartland, which was no simple siege – actually besieging Arsenal's goal was not what Donn wanted to see. Arsenal also counter-attacked, and there were no few. The Forest team controlled the game in a situation where they were attacking and defending each other, so they had more attacking opportunities, and if the opponent didn't attack, how could they get in?

The initiative is not in their own hands, Arsenal have to try to get it back, so they have to attack, and it is not possible to defend steadily. After ten minutes of panic, Arsenal unified their thinking - attack!

It's the scene that Forest wants to see the most, Arsenal attacking, they attacking.

A good-looking and fierce battle has begun......

"Cesc Fabregas! Nice pass, Vela receives the ball and shoots! Oops, alas! ”

Akinfeev held the ball firmly in his arms, and then he didn't wait for the Arsenal players to return to the defense, and directly threw the ball in his hands to attack. Gago follows the ball sideways and moves forward with the ball. After being intercepted by Wilshere, he did not stop the ball and spin it in circles and get rid of it, but passed the ball directly to Cohen on the wing.

Cohen, who rotated Fernandez in this game, was more convenient than the Chilean in his wide crosses, and Donn also took a fancy to this to let him start, because the starting center forwards of the Forest team in this game were Ibisevic and Mitchel, and neither of them was weak in headers.

However, Cohen was not good at dribbling, and Arsenal's full-back Sania retreated quickly, so Cohen transferred the ball directly to Bentley's feet on the other side. Bentley received the ball and crossed the middle, and Gago had already rushed up.

After receiving the ball, Gago took advantage of the situation and pushed it, and the football rolled into the penalty area!

Mitchel came out of the crowd and was about to receive the ball to form a one-on-one knife, but the attacking Almunia took the lead to steal the football. Mitchel jumped over his head with some reluctance. If only he had been faster......

Almunia waited for Mitchel to exit the box and kicked the ball in front. Wood's dominance in headers was clear, with no one in Arsenal's midfield being able to play with him in the air.

The ball in the air was easily topped by Wood, who swung it to Pepe in the back.

Seeing this, Cesc Fabregas made a gesture to Almunia in the back, telling him to kick off less with this kind of big kick in the future, and throw the ball more with his hands to attack on the ground.

This kick-off was a direct handing over possession to Forest.

Although the ball was intercepted by Forest, Arsenal did not give up on the attack. They used aggressive scrambling to finally snatch the ball from Gago's feet and launch a counter-attack on the spot.

Wilshere used his skills to dribble past Woodgate and then feigned to shoot, but instead gave the ball to Cesc Fabregas, who was plugged in behind.

The captain of Arsenal was interfered by the captain of Nottingham Forest, and the ball was slightly over the crossbar, which shocked the Nottingham Forest fans into a cold sweat.

Fabregas was a little annoyed by the missed goal, and he stood up and slapped his palms hard.

Donn looked down at his watch, fifteen minutes into the game. Forest have yet to score, but overall the Forest team has the advantage, and Arsenal's attack is a bit disorganized under the strength of the Forest team, relying more on the individual play of the stars. The most important reason for Arsenal's current disadvantage is that Arsene Wenger has sent an all-attacking midfield lineup in order to use it at home to attack the Forest team, and he has not even used a defensive midfielder, but now he is suppressed by the Forest midfield.

You still have to score as soon as possible, otherwise Wenger will come back to his senses and he won't be able to eat this set......

What's more, the team's fitness is really a problem, and they can't afford to drag it out.

Donn got up from his seat and walked to the sidelines, he didn't say anything, but he believed the players knew what they meant when they saw him standing on the sidelines.

We're going to score, guys. What are you guys up to?

※※※

Arsenal are still trying to get back in the game. They're already a little bit out of the way, or they're losing sight of one or the other. Arsene Wenger told them before the game that they had to score in this game and that scoring was the most crucial thing, so now everyone is on their minds to score goals......

As for defense?

Although they know their defence is in jeopardy against Forest's attack, there is still a hint of luck in everyone's hearts that they will take advantage of them before they can break through their own goal.

To put it bluntly, this game is about who scores first. Arsenal scored first and the game went into Arsenal's orbit. Nottingham Forest scored first, and Arsenal were passive.

That's why they were so focused on breaking down Forest's goal that they put the safety of their goal in second place for the time being......

Arsenal pressed again and the attack was cut off. George. Wood and Pepe both cut off Cesc Fabregas's pass to Vela and after the ball was poked away by Pepe, Wood scrambled ahead of Wilshere to get the ball away before he strode forward. His dribbling was standard, the combination of man and ball was so good that Cesc Fabregas gave up on the attempt to break the ball and instead scrambled on the side.

Wood only took a few steps and found that Arsenal's defensive system had not yet been established, and it was very chaotic, with some people assisting in front, some people rushing back to defend, and some people hesitating whether to go up or retreat......

There are countless vacancies.

He immediately stopped dribbling the ball and distributed it to the wing. There are no Arsenal defenders there, the sea is wide and the sky is wide!

Cohen ran as hard as he could, he wasn't fast, but Wood's pass was too comfortable...... He doesn't need to compete with others for speed, as long as he runs straight forward, the rolling route of the football must be closer to himself. Opposition defenders look closer to the ball now, but when they actually run a few steps they will find that they will pass the ball if they run in a straight line, and they will only get farther and farther away from the ball if they run diagonally......

Since Sagna was still in front and did not return to the defense, the goal had to be filled by the centre-back. One of the two centre-backs, Kolo. Toure strode to the wing, and halfway through the run he gave up trying to steal the ball and instead ran diagonally along the ball's path, blocking the inside line to prevent Cohen from breaking through. That was the best choice he could have made in such a situation.

Unfortunately, Cohen didn't even think about cutting into the box, he let the ball roll two meters in front of him, and then made a feint to break through, causing Toure to retreat a little, and after making space, he went around to the outside and crossed directly!

Cohen's cross was set up, and he wasn't like Wood's late cross in the last game, which was high and floating. His crosses are flat, fast and have a pronounced arc. The place with the largest arc is almost attached to the bottom line. Seeing that he was running to the goal, but when he really got to the goal, he suddenly turned to the big penalty area. This arc was drawn, and Almunia was caught off guard. He wanted to attack and get the ball directly, but as soon as he stepped out, he watched the football turn back.

So he hurriedly retreated and prepared to guard the door. As soon as he raised his hand, he saw a black shadow pressing down in the air.

"Aaron. Mitche - Er! ”

The narrator shouted in a lengthened voice.

The soccer ball in the air seemed to be attracted to Mitchel, crashed headlong, and then bounced back in a different direction. The ball flew past Almunia and his reflexes couldn't keep up. The power of the football cross, and the momentum of Mitchel, the two forces are twisted together, creating the effect of "one plus one is greater than two", and no goalkeeper can really react when he is close to the goal.

The ball was smashed into the goal by Mitchel and the net was lifted.

Standing on the sidelines, Don clenched a fist and swung it into the sky.

Then he looked at his watch, and twenty-nine minutes into the game, he waited!

Arsene Wenger, who was sitting in the dugout of the home team, slapped his thigh hard, his face full of chagrin. He really didn't expect the Forest team to actually score on this counterattack. It seems that Nottingham Forest's attacking posture has shown before is not posturing, but real......

He miscalculated.

He didn't expect Donn, a gambler, to dare to bet like this in this game.

The Nottingham Forest fans in the corner of the stands erupted in loud cheers, temporarily suppressing the boos from the fans.

Mitchel, who scored the goal, ran over and Chris, who assisted him. Cohen hugged him, and a group of people came up behind him to surround them, excitedly celebrating the goal.

Mitchel's goal not only gave Forest an away goal, but also led 2-0 on aggregate, and if Arsenal want to advance, they will be eliminated if they win this game 2-1, they must score three goals!

It's no wonder that Wenger was so excited after seeing the goal conceded, and Cesc Fabregas's face instantly darkened.

Anyone with a clear head knows that this game is difficult for Arsenal......

※※※

The TV screen was replaying the goal over and over again, and the commentator was full of praise for Mitchel's movement and overheading: "...... He was just behind Arsenal's Senderos, completely unmarked, Toure was pulled on the wing to defend Cohen, and Ibisevic's movement was too smart! His forward cut pulled Sendros and Mitchel, who was just outside the box just as Cohen was about to cross, burst in and leaped high! He jumped higher than anyone else! The ball is in! It's so beautiful in one go! Forest's premeditated passing movement in this attack was the key to the goal, but Mitchel's individual ability was also impressive......

Ever since Mitchel became a first-team player and regularly scored in games, Mitchel's father has been the happiest man in the stands. Whenever his son scores, the Forest fans around him come up to congratulate him and chant his son's name together. He loves the star feel.

Mitchel celebrated his goal just below the visitors' stands, with a crowd chanting "Aaron! Aron! Let him, the father, also boil with his blood.

The players who had celebrated their goals ran past the dugout and returned to their positions, where Donn shouted, "Keep attacking!" Go on! Don't let up, you can go in as much as you can! ”

Then he took George. Woodra came to his side and quickly ordered: "Watch out for Arsenal's counterattack, if they play long passes, don't be afraid." If you attack from the midfield, if you break their ball, you will give me a long pass directly to two wings, and we will play their counterattack and strive for another one in the first half! You go tell Cohen and Bentley to keep an eye out for counter-attacking opportunities. ”

Wood nodded, turned and ran onto the field.

After doing all this, Don turned around and walked back to the dugout, sat down to drink his saliva.

After drinking the water, he turned his head to Chrislac silly.

Chrislak asked, "Is the pressure in my heart lighter?" ”

"No, it's bigger."

"Huh?"

"Unless the game is over, my pressure will not be reduced. When you don't score, you're afraid that if you don't score, you'll be led by the opponent's first goal. Now that he has scored a goal, he is more afraid of being equalized by the opponent's goal. I asked them to try to score another goal before the end of the first half and we could have a lot more room to manoeuvre. ”

※※※

After conceding the goal, Arsenal did launch a frantic counterattack against the Forest team, almost completely abandoning the defence. They don't want to lose at home and they don't want to be beaten by Nottingham Forest in a single set, so attacking with all their might is the only way to go.

The Forest team showed a very calm performance, first set up a defensive position, and did not rush to handle the ball. Taking advantage of their midfield double midfield, they suppressed Arsenal's all-attacking midfield configuration.

Then it's time to fight back.

This Forest team is the best.

In the fortieth minute of the first half, the abbot of Shaolin after the 80s. With five minutes left in the first half, they led 2-0 and the overall score was 3-0.

This game is almost over......
