Chapter 52 I Shot!
January 25th, FA Cup third round, Arsenal vs Aston Villa. Google search reading
After all, after 20 minutes, Arsenal already led by two goals.
Suarez and Walcott scored a goal in 5 minutes and 10 minutes respectively to help Arsenal take the lead.
But the most interesting thing is not this, but Aston Villa's center Benteke, who has not had a shot in the past 20 minutes.
Benteke retreated to receive the ball. The reason why he retreated was because Aston Villa was unable to complete the ball under the crazy sweep of Arsenal's midfield.
If he wants to get the ball, he has to retreat.
As soon as Benteke retreated and got the ball, he felt pressure on his back.
'here we go again! ’
Benteke hates it!
He didn't know how many times this happened. As soon as he got the ball, the Chinese would stick to it.
Benteke was under pressure from behind, and he wanted to find an opportunity to turn around, but the pressure was getting bigger and bigger, and there was no chance at all.
In the end, he had no choice but to pass the ball.
He turned his head to the left, trying to confuse his opponent, and at the same time raised his right foot to pass the ball in the opposite direction.
But as soon as the ball was passed, he heard a 'bang'.
Benteke's heart skipped a beat, and he knew he had been intercepted again!
"Interception from Kai! This is his fifth successful interception against Benteke in this game."
Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray was laughing his head off.
Richard shook his head and said, "This is a nightmare. I don't think any center wants to be targeted by a defensive midfielder of Kai's level, but it's helpless because Benteke has angered him!"
"Other Arsenal players are also eager for revenge. They all performed extremely well in this game!"
After Lucky completed the steal, he sent the ball directly to Cazorla's feet, then retreated and ran around Benteke.
Lucky looked at Benteke and said that if he doesn't let you shoot, he won't let you shoot!
In this game, Lucky played a man-marking position.
He gave up other tasks such as regional defense and organization, and was responsible for marking Benteke.
There is no shortage of suspicions of letting off steam here, but even so, Arsenal can still operate very well.
As mentioned before, there is a strength gap between Arsenal and Aston Villa, and Lucky is more than enough to mark Benteke.
Benteke is in despair. When he is targeted by a super defensive midfielder with full defensive attributes, it is difficult to catch the ball.
However, Benteke has not given up yet. He has been hovering near the center circle, trying to connect.
Lucky naturally followed him and continued to verbally attack him.
"Hey! Dirty bitch! Why don't you raise your elbow? Oh~~~Because the referee is not Mike Dean?"
"Look! My belly is here! My liver is here, hit it here!"
Lucky followed Benteke while constantly taunting him.
Benteke was about to explode with anger, but he could only endure it.
Since the black whistle incident, this game has been given special significance.
The chief referee of this game is the famous Premier League Howard Webber, who is known for his strict penalties.
At the same time, major media are also paying attention to this game. It can be said that any flaws will be infinitely magnified.
In this case, Benteke no longer dared to foul unscrupulously!
Lucky kept using words to provoke him, but this guy didn't react at all, which disappointed Lucky.
However, he is still trying hard to mark Benteke.
If I say I won’t let you shoot, I won’t let you shoot!
Aston Villa lost the ball at the back but were desperate for the ball under pressure from Arsenal.
Aston Villa's full-back Lowton chose to pass the ball long, looking for Benteke in the frontcourt.
Benteke immediately rushed to where the ball landed, but Lucky followed closely beside him.
The two arrived at the landing point almost at the same time. Benteke stepped on his left foot, bent his knees, and made a take-off motion.
But at this moment Lucky suddenly rushed over and pushed Benteke away with his body arrogantly.
Benteke stood on one foot, but failed to withstand Lucky's impact. He screamed and fell to the ground.
At this time, Lucky had already completed his take-off and sent the ball to Aston Villa's half again with a header.
Benteke was still rolling on the ground, hoping to win the referee's sympathy.
But the referee turned a blind eye to this. Lucky and Benteke collided with their shoulders, which was a reasonable collision.
At best, Benteke failed to withstand Lucky's collision.
Seeing this scene, the two Sky Sports commentators couldn't help but grin.
Andy Gray shook his head and sighed; "Benteke, so miserable!"
"If he keeps playing like this, he will become less confident." Richard was also quite helpless.
Benteke's performance in this game can be described as disappearing. Under Lucky's marking, he never even entered the penalty area, let alone shot.
Time passed little by little, and the entire first half was almost over.
So far, Aston Villa still has not been able to get any shooting opportunities.
Arsenal's crazy suppression in the first half had an effect.
Especially after Benteke, the offensive arrow figure, disappeared, Aston Villa surrendered 0 shots in the first half.
Seeing this data, Sky Sports commentator Andy Gray couldn't help but sigh; "I finally understand why Mourinho wants to get Kai so much."
Richard nodded; "Mourinho is a loyal master of counterattack tactics, and in this set of tactics, the most important thing is defense. Kai's defensive ability in the defensive midfielder position is too strong!"
"At least in the top five in the world!" Andy Gray said confidently; "Last season, Kai often made some mistakes and misjudgments in coordination due to experience problems, but after entering this season, Kai's growth is amazing. As for Kai now, I can only say that he is a monster!"
After a pause, Andy Gray sighed; "If Kai was in Arsenal's lineup eight years ago, it would be hard to say about the Champions League final that year!"
Arsenal fans also sighed, but they did not miss it too much. For the current Arsenal fans, the future is worth looking forward to.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again.
Lucky still carried out a cruel defense on Benteke.
In the 49th minute, Benteke retreated to receive the ball. He did not feel the pressure, but just when he was about to turn around, Lucky robbed the ball with a fierce sliding tackle.
In the 58th minute, Benteke continued to retreat to receive the ball. At this time, Benteke was on the verge of a mental breakdown. This time, before he touched the ball, Lekai directly intercepted the ball.
In the 71st minute, Benteke was ready to compete for the header in the penalty area, and Lekai also jumped at the same time. The confrontation between the two in the air was obviously dominated by Lekai.
Lekai's body was extremely stretched and his posture was extremely standard, which also contributed to his ability to stay in the air. He easily headed the ball to Flamini in front.
In the 88th minute, Benteke finally shot!
A turn and volley shot 40 meters away from the goal, close to the center circle!
This was an anti-aircraft gun that rushed directly to the stands.
After completing the shot, Benteke glared at Lekai and shouted; "I shot!"
Lekai rolled his eyes in annoyance and gave him a headbutt.
This almost dramatic shot also made the two commentators laugh.
"This is not a shot, it didn't even go into the goal frame!"
"That's right! This is a pass! A pass! Hahaha!"
The two commentators laughed so happily.
At the same time, their hearts were burning.
Lucky succeeded!
It really was a zero seal!
As for this long shot, what kind of shot is this!
It doesn't count!
Absolutely not!
The reaction of many fans who like to gossip is the same as the commentator.
'This is obviously a pass! '
At the end of the game, in injury time, Arsenal scored again during a corner kick attack.
This is the second consecutive round that Mertesacker has scored.
Perhaps Mustafi's arrival has made the high center defender a little anxious, and this pressure has also led to his state.
In the end, in the third round of the FA Cup, Arsenal beat Aston Villa 3:0!
Suarez was still the best player of the game, and his various invasions in the frontcourt disrupted Aston Villa's defensive rhythm.
In this game, Lucky, who was only responsible for defense, also received a high score of 5.
A large part of this was due to Lucky's shutout of Benteke.
In this game, Lucky once again demonstrated his terrifying defensive ability.
After winning the game, the Arsenal players were finally happy.
After two weeks of depression, with this victory, their hearts were suddenly enlightened.
The depressed mood in their chests was vented, further optimizing their state.
