1028 The Spear King and the Soldier King

Salah's goal put the Gunners fans in the stands of Emirates Stadium into madness!

On the scorer list this season, Salah, as the number one scorer in Arsenal, is closely following the two Liverpool kings, Lewandowski and Mbappe!

It can be said that the three most efficient scorers in the Premier League have all been in this game!

After Henry and Van Persie, Arsenal finally ushered in another efficient gun king!

"Salah rewritten the score! Arsenal once again took the lead in the home game!

Liverpool's defense failed to block the sharp offensive of Arsenal's Trident this time!

Salah's shot past Culibaly in the penalty area and went straight to the corner of the goal. Although the strength was not strong, Van Dijk, who was saving the ball, almost cleared the ball, and finally failed!

Arsenal led Liverpool 2:1 at home, and the pace of the game was very fast. Not long ago, Liverpool almost broke through Arsenal's goal, but in the blink of an eye, Arsenal scored a goal!

Seeing Arsenal's performance today, we have reason to believe that Klopp's team is qualified to challenge the championship, and now it is likely that the initiative in the league championship is in the hands of Manchester City, it depends on whether Manchester City will give them a chance!"

This concealment of the ball did not disrupt Situ Yunbing's rhythm.

After conceding the first goal, he changed the team's tactical style, which to a certain extent allowed Liverpool's defense to continue to bear risks, and the risk level was constantly improving.

Because as the game progresses, Arsenal's tactical effect of point-breaking the surface will get better and better.

Similarly, Liverpool is not without chance. In this level of competition, it is necessary to absolutely curb the opponent, the team's state, tactics, and defensive aggressiveness. Since Liverpool has not chosen a conservative style of play, he must be calm when conceding the ball.

However, the time for conceding the ball is not good, and the first half is about to end, which will bring greater pressure to Liverpool.

As the first half was about to end, Klopp made a gesture to the team and let them defend the game!

The quiet eyes were extremely firm.

Klopp did not go to see Situ Yunbing, but many fragments of mottled memories flashed through his mind, and there were many figures of Situ Yunbing in it.

He wanted Situ Yunbing to feel the regret of passing by the champion, he wanted Situ Yunbing to taste the loss of hard work and giving everything but only looking up to others in the corner, he wanted Situ Yunbing to be as unhappy as he had faced fans with disappointment and helpless faces!

As a victorious general, Situ Yunbing naturally would not have the mentality of Klopp. He had almost never tasted the taste of failure.

Because failure means death to him!

So he was even more in awe of failure!

Before the end of the first half, Liverpool tried two long shots but failed to create a threat. The referee blew the whistle, and the players of both teams walked into the player channel amid the applause of fans.

Situ Yunbing looked thoughtful, and he was considering whether to make a small adjustment to the tactics.

The speed of the game also means that if the situation is not under its own control, at least the score behind will force Liverpool to switch plays faster.

After returning to the locker room, Situ Yunbing clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention, and then made tactical adjustments on the tactical board.

This battle of the gods is also forcing every participant to come up with the best condition. The biggest test for the head coach is to respond on the spot!

After adjustments after the intermission, the two teams returned to the court and changed sides and then fought again in the second half.

The atmosphere of Emirates Stadium was frenzy, and the fans who cheered the two teams did not stop for a moment.

Even if it is only the final half-time battle, the competition situation with nearly zero fault tolerance in the league has already brought the final battle ahead of schedule!

Now no one can afford to lose points, no one can afford to lose!

Must win!

At the beginning of the second half, Arsenal took the lead in playing a strong attack, as if he wanted to grab a start, but Coolibali made a key steal against Firmino in front of the penalty area to ensure the safety of the defense. Arsenal's blitz failed and immediately escaped and retreated to defend.

As Liverpool's positional battle slowed down slightly, Klopp, with a sharp eye, frowned slightly.

This is not like Liverpool's style. Liverpool has always beat fast, you are faster and I am faster!

Destroy your opponent in a fast pace!

Actively slowing down the pace, although it is only a little bit, but this is still very contrasting with the fact that they should speed up faster when they are behind in the score!

Gareth Bale, Erikson, Robertson, and Casemiro all gathered on the left side of the frontcourt, which made Arsenal's midfield defense almost crowded over to encircle!

When Gareth Bale passed the ball back and Robertson moved the ball to the right side of the middle, Mbappe had a more relaxed space in the active response.

After Mbappe stopped the ball, he started forward, Chambers rushed up to press, Mbappe pulled the ball down and changed direction and dodged, then dribbled and accelerated forward!

Wijnaldum quickly killed him, but Mbappe turned the ball when he was about to meet Matip and went to the outside and broke into the penalty area!

His sudden speedup caught Matipu off guard!

Wijnaldum almost collided with Matipu!

When Mbappe broke into the right outside of the penalty area, he shorted the ball to the front of the penalty spot.

Lewandowski quickly made a diagonal shot and scored a shot!

He wanted to hit the far corner of the goal, and Karius saved the ball with one hand and blocked the ball in the penalty area!

Koscheerney cleared the ball with one step later!

"Wow! Lewandowski's shot was blocked by Karius!

Arsenal escaped!

Mbappe's performance was phenomenal. He calmly avoided Chambers' steal, then broke through the encirclement between Wijnaldum and Matip and sent out a wonderful pass!

Liverpool seems to have given up the tactic of holding high in the first half!”

Klopp's expression was a little gloomy, mainly because Liverpool has changed its tactical style again!

At this point, he had to admit that Situ Yunbing's decisiveness and quick change in his thinking made all his colleagues far beyond the reach!

But this is also the strong point of Situ Yunbing!

After the Arsenal blitz was hit, it continued to threaten Liverpool's defense according to its previous style of play.

In the 53rd minute of the game, Mane controlled the ball from the left on the frontcourt. After pretending to pass the ball to Firmino, he spiked the ball under his feet and suddenly accelerated and passed Arnold!

Arnold is probably about to collapse today!

But now no matter how much pressure he has, he must withstand it!

When Mane passed the ball to the back point of the penalty area in front of the baseline, Salah quickly cut inside and was seized by Kulibali. He seemed to hit Kulibali and fell into the penalty area.

After Kulibali headed the ball and cleared the ball, he made a gesture to Salah.

The Arsenal players did not think this was a penalty kick, because they could see clearly that Koulibali did not foul.

Liverpool continues to strengthen organizational control and creates local oppression on the left side of the frontcourt!

Arsenal has no choice but to defend and increase its troops on the right!

Otherwise, the left side will be penetrated and the defense line will be in danger.

When the two teams were concentrated near the sidelines, Eriksen responded to Gareth Bale's pass and passed back!

Unexpectedly, Kanter rushed up quickly and then made an offensive transfer.

The football rolled to the middle of the penalty area.

Mbappe pulled the ball while controlling the ball here and turned around to widen the distance from Wijnaldum. Then, when Matip grabbed the ball, he continued to hit the ball and broke into the right side of the penalty area!

Mbappe, who successfully made Klopp look bad after another breakthrough!

He understood what tactics Liverpool was playing!

Gather 80% of the offensive forces of the entire team to create a better personal space and environment for Mbappe!

There are now defensive players who can curb Mbappe in one-on-one defense, but not many, especially when Mbappe has enough space to break through the ball control!

Unfortunately, Arsenal's improvement in defensive strength in the past half season depends on the overall situation, not how strong his personal defensive strength is!

In contrast, Liverpool's strong defense is that his overall personal ability is also very strong!

And they released more full-backs to participate in the offense!

When Mbappe broke through again and entered the right side of the penalty area, he decisively shot!

The football flew straight to the back point in the middle of the goal, and Karius subconsciously saved the ball and blocked it!

Seeing that Lewandowski and Koscheerny failed to make a follow-up shot and the other failed to clear the ball, the football bounced behind him!

When Koscheerney turned around, he suddenly saw Eriksen breaking into the penalty area and hit the ball!

Erikson was very calm when facing the incoming ball this time, and directly pushed the ball into the near corner of the goal with his left foot!

Football flew back from Koscheerny and Lewandowski!

Karius had just completed a save, and he hurriedly got up and then blocked the left post. It was too late!

The moment the football rolled into the goal against the inside of the left post, the Red Army fans shouted at the top of their lungs!

Erikson roared and rushed to the sidelines, and the morale of the Red Army soldiers was greatly boosted!

Situ Yunbing also waved his fists excitedly on the sidelines. Klopp's face was as deep as water. Liverpool's tactical style in the second half really made him feel a headache.

Unless Arsenal substitutions give up the Trident configuration and further strengthen the defense!

But the score is 2:2 now!

If Arsenal substitutions adjust and strengthen defense, it is equivalent to giving up the victory of the game!

"Eriksen scored a goal after a shot! Mbappe once again performed wonderfully in the penalty area. Karius missed his save, and Eriksen's goal accurately sent the ball into the goal!

Liverpool tied the score!

The situation of this civil war between the championship group is really stalemate. Arsenal took the lead twice and could not expand its lead. Liverpool's performance of catching up when it was lagging behind is also impressive!

In the past 10 minutes of the game, what impressed us the most was that Arsenal could not limit Mbappe!

That's right!

This is a bit unlike the tactics that Liverpool will adopt in top-level battles, but in the second half of today's game, Mbappe received tactical support from the entire Liverpool team!

Although he didn't score the ball, his performance was very critical!
Chapter completed!
