PS: Chapter 30 of "Additional Updates and Compensation Plan", there are recommendations and updates, well, that's it...

"Tony, why do I feel that the area of ​​Highbury Stadium is much smaller than that of Frankie?" During the intermission, Karin raised her doubts to Zhuang Mingge.

"You are right, Kareen. If I remember correctly, the length of this Highbury Stadium is 5 meters shorter than Frankie Stadium, and the short side is 2 meters narrower than Frankie." Zhuang Mingge recalled the information about this stadium I had read before and replied, "Arsenal has been at Highbury Stadium for more than 80 years, but only the legendary coach Chapman who invented the 'WM' formation and now Graham led Arsenal to success. If you want to say that there has never been a shortage of stars in Arsenal's history... Kareen, do you know why this is?"

"Tony, are you saying this has something to do with Highbury Stadium?" Karin thought for a while and gave a tentative answer.

"That's right! I think that in a pocket stadium game like Highbury, only by making full use of every inch of space on the court can we create more goals and opportunities. Think about it, when Arsenal plays at home, first put defense first, show the opponent's weakness, wait for an opportunity to counterattack, and firmly attract opponent players to their half-court, so we can gain a broader offensive space in this small stadium and create more goals and opportunities. Undoubtedly, Chapman and Graham have done a little, so they have succeeded."

"Well, what you said makes sense! If most Arsenal players always huddled in their half to play defensive counterattacks, I think no matter which team comes here, I will feel a headache... However, Tony, according to you, as long as Arsenal's tactics ensure that they can get enough offensive space in Highbury, then they will meet the basic guarantee of victory at the tactical level?"

"It should be true, but Arsenal, who is in a turbulent period, may not be patient to continue to waste time with Fiorentina." Zhuang Mingge looked at Graham who returned to the court and said, "If Graham still wants to continue working in Arsenal, then this Cup of Winners is his life-saving straw. I guess he changed Arsenal's tactics just now in the locker room, and he should be to strengthen the team's offense."

At this time, the Arsenal player took the ball and the second half of the game began.

As expected by Zhuang Mingge, Graham couldn't wait to send Paul Mosen, the front midfielder who had just come out of the drug rehabilitation center, just started the second half.

Faced with the same tactical style as himself in the first half, Graham, who was on the verge of being dismissed, did not have the courage to continue to do so. He urgently needed victory to consolidate his position in the club, and he was unwilling to gain a meaningless draw at the Highbury Stadium, and he did not dare to bet that Arsenal could win Fiorentina away in the second leg.

After all, Arsenal, coached by Graham, is known for its defensive counterattack tactics, which makes them somewhat out of line with other Premier League teams - because Arsenal is one of the few England teams without high centers, which makes Arsenal much worse in its strong offensive ability.

Fiorentina did not make any personnel adjustments at the beginning of the second half. It seems that Ranieri is determined to use his special skills to confront Graham to the end.

Therefore, the second half of the game was no longer as dull as in the previous 45 minutes. With the cheers of more than 30,000 Arsenal fans on the spot, the Gunners in the technical level were far inferior to those of Fiorentina. Under the order of head coach Graham, they actually played a short pass at the Highbury Stadium!

"Graham seems to be really confused. If the opponent is so easy to penetrate the score by them by short passes, then Fiorentina will have been sieve in Serie A by other teams." Commentators at the scene also expressed dissatisfaction with Graham's tactical arrangements. "But it is understandable that this situation occurs. Mr. Graham is under great pressure now. If he cannot advance to the Cup Winners final, then he will be denied at the end of the season."

At this time, in the 50th minute of the game, Arsenal's right forward Haider passed the ball across to Hartson who was responding in the middle, and Hartson passed it straight to Mosen in front of him... But unfortunately, the ball was broken from under Mosen by Kripa, who was robbing in time.

After staying in the drug rehabilitation center for several months, Morson, who has plummeted in his competitive state, is the opponent of Kripa who is at the peak of his career? At the peak of Kripa, he was completely a technically enhanced version of Gattuso!

Arsenal, who gave up defending and went out in full swing, gained a lot of ball possession time, but what role can it play when most of the passes are concentrated in their own half?

Therefore, every time a Fiorentine player interrupts the opponent's pass and launches a counterattack, it will pose a huge threat to Arsenal's city gate!

Arsenal has no choice but to defend against Fiorentina, but Fiorentina can always use the moment of offense and defense to create murderous intent. The balance of victory is already tilting towards Fiorentina's away game.

...

It has been 20 minutes since the second half, and the score on the field remains at 0:0.

At this time, the Arsenal players who got the ball again attacked Fiorentina's half.

This time, midfielder Hutson made a rare beautiful turn and successfully got rid of Effenberg's defense. Without any hesitation, he decisively handed the ball to Ian Wright, who was ambushed at the top of the penalty area.

This England international, who has only completed one shot so far and has a very limited number of shots, was depressed to find that he was still in an undefensive state before, and the moment he received the ball from Hutson, three Fiorentine defensive players surrounded him!

Ian Wright looked at Lanna and Dibiagio who rushed over from both sides to assist in defense, and glanced at Ferrara, who was defending closely behind him, and felt that the possibility of successfully breaking through these three joint defenses was too small. Therefore, he took the ball with his back without making any offensive moves, and he had no choice but to pass the ball back to Hartson.

Hutson, who received the ball, was also very depressed: We finally broke through a layer of defense and passed the ball to you, but you did nothing and passed the ball back! Isn’t this a cheating teammate?!
Chapter completed!
