Football: The strongest post-zero generation

"The visitors Liverpool are wearing purple and blue shirts and pants in an official formation of 433, goalkeeper Alisson, defenders Robertson, Virgil van Dijk, Joe Gomez and Alexander-Arnold, midfielders Wijnaldum, James Milner and Li Qing, and three strikers Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Salah. "

Juli TV commentator James reported to the fans in front of the TV about the starting lineups of the players on both sides of the game.

"The home team Arsenal is wearing a traditional red shirt and white pants, the official formation is 4231, goalkeeper Leno, defenders Kolasinac, Holding, Mustafi and Bellerin, two midfielders Xhaka partnered Torreira, three forward Mkhitaryan, Ramsey and Aubameyang, striker Alexandre Lacazette is at the front to harass the Liverpool defence......"

Liverpool, who have the advantage on the kick-off, are not on the sidelines, and they are quick to give football to the home Arsenal players.

Arsene Wenger's Arsenal style of play was sleek and beautiful, and many of the goals were impressive, especially the shocking goal scored by Olivier Giroud.

However, Emery's football is very different from Wenger's, so Arsenal's style of play in the post-Wenger era has changed to a certain extent, and even sometimes plays unfamiliar to Arsenal fans, but because this is the first season in the post-Wenger era, Arsenal fans are also mentally prepared, thinking that as long as the team record coached by Emery is not too ugly, it will be OK.

Emery is also self-aware, realizing that Liverpool is currently one of the most capable teams in the world, even if it is a home game, he is ready to defend with all his might, and he never expected that Liverpool's first wave of attack did not pose a threat to Leno's goal, and even gave up possession without even a shot on goal.

It's not scientific!

It stands to reason that Liverpool should have the majesty of the top team and press Arsenal to rub in the defensive half!

Arsenal, who had the advantage of possession, were a little unprepared for a while, and the first attack was made by the backfield player Holding directly to Alexandre Lacazette.

Lacazette, who is just 1.8 meters tall, obviously couldn't get a favor on the top of Van Dijk, who is more than 1.9 meters tall, so he ...... Arsenal's first wave of attacks is over.

Many of the Arsenal fans in the crowd were ready to cheer and the result was ...... Possession was quickly ceded.

He Wei, the commentator of Tianchao 5, rolled his eyes and couldn't help laughing: "How do you feel that this football is like a hot potato? Liverpool may not be ready to make mistakes in the first attack, and this Arsenal is too anxious, right?"

"Presumably Arsenal have been ready to defend and counter-attack, and Liverpool made a passing error not long after the start, and it was clear that the Arsenal players were not ready. "

Commentator Xu Yang said with a smile.

At the same time, Arsenal captain Xhaka turned his head and made a double-palm downward motion to Holding, who was making a long pass, signaling...... Don't rush, take your time.

Liverpool, who controlled the ball again, played very attentively, making full use of the width of the court, and Li Qing, who had the ball, would always hear a loud chant from the audience.

In addition to feeling unfamiliar at the beginning of the away game, as more and more away games, I gradually adapted to this kind of treatment, and played handily and played with ease.

Li Qing, who has a talented [leader], can often bring great confidence to his teammates, and his good attitude can drive the teammates around him to play carefully, so they all believe that 11 consecutive wins in the league will come to hand!

It's just that this process may be compromised, but the result is ...... It's wonderful.

Of course, hard work is a must, otherwise there will be an upset.

In the blink of an eye, the first five minutes of the first half passed quickly, with neither side having a direct chance to threaten the opposition goal, but Liverpool took the initiative with their overall dominance and were able to keep the football at their feet for the most part.

Unai Emery's Arsenal tactics before the game were defensive counter-attacks, so Liverpool's dominance of the attack was expected, and although it was a bit difficult to deal with, Leno was at least relatively safe in the goal and did not face any real threat.

Li Qing is Liverpool's most dangerous player, and Arsenal has invested the most defensive force, but Liverpool's current tactical system is very mature, and the offensive side does not particularly rely on Li Qing.

Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Mohamed Salah are all good threats to the Arsenal defence, while Milner is a midfielder who specialises in rough work and Wijnaldum can share a certain amount of back-up involvement and playmaking in attack.

Milner wasn't just about defending, his defensive ability and attitude were key factors in Klopp's transformation into a full-back and defensive midfielder, and he started his career as an attacking striker.

While Li Qing and Wijnaldum were closely watched, Milner was also able to make a temporary cameo in playmaking midfield.

Firmino is often at the front to attract firepower, and his playmaking skills are the strongest in Liverpool's midfield except for Li Qing, and he can often deliver exquisite passes when Firmino retreats to organise attacks.

Again, Emery's attacking style has been thoroughly studied by Emery, and the Arsenal defenders were very focused at the beginning of the game, and it was difficult for Liverpool to find opportunities in attack.

Unai Emery and Klopp were nervous in their respective command areas, but Emery was even more nervous when looking closely.

Who makes the current Arsenal squad worse than Liverpool's?

Especially when it comes to the consistent scoring ability of the players.

In addition to Li Qing, Liverpool can average two goals per game, Mane and Salah both have strong scoring ability.

In the past time, Emery, who was meticulous in his hairstyle, was anxious, and from time to time he stood on the sidelines and made inciting body movements to the players on the field, relieving his own pressure while inciting the excitement and enthusiasm of the players on the field.

There were no mistakes in the Arsenal defence, but Xhaka and Mkhitaryan received a yellow card, which obviously had an impact on the rest of the game.

Two minutes passed in the game, and the Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium watched with horror, and they would subconsciously hold their breath if the football was not passed to Li Qing's feet, for fear that Li Qing would suddenly explode at that moment.

In the 19th minute, Li Qing received a pass from Milner in a careless situation and accelerated suddenly, Mkhitaryan, who was carrying a yellow card, did not dare to foul, Xhaka, who was in the middle, fought and retreated, and also did not dare to foul.

"Beep~"

The referee on duty, Oliver, blew the whistle decisively and signaled for Torreira to foul.

Perhaps considering the home factor, Torreira, who made a tactical foul, did not receive a yellow card.

Xhaka, one of the two midfielders, received a yellow card, and the other midfielder Torreira only gave Liverpool a free-kick closer to the goal, which is really ...... Luckily!

Emery let out a long exhale, but the breath was stuck in his throat before it could be fully exhaled.

Is it really a blessing in misfortune?_
