Midfielder Ruler

Dortmund's recent performance is eye-catching, and Wenger once appeared at the Allianz Arena to watch the strong dialogue between Dortmund and Bayern Munich, so this game is bound to attract countless attention.

Among them, Tang Zheng, who had an eye-catching performance, became the subject of interviews by the media. He scored a very beautiful long-range lob last weekend, and he also set a new record for the longest goal scored in the Bundesliga.

The lore goal before the end of 90 minutes also came from his shot causing goalkeeper Neuer to make a mistake, otherwise Barrios would have no way to complete the lore.

At the same time, it is worth mentioning that the wave of defense for the lore goal, if Tang Zheng hadn't appeared in a key position, Dortmund would very likely encounter Bayern's lore at the Allianz Arena.

Once out and in, it truly reflects the importance of Tang Zheng in Dortmund.

In fact, before Midweek came, many British media gave Wenger advice. There is only one way to defeat Dortmund at the Emirates Stadium, and that is to completely restrict Tang Zheng's swings on the court. .

The Borussia Dortmund team arriving at London Heathrow International Airport was welcomed by Dortmund fans who came to the airport early, but they faced more Arsenal fans who burst into loud boos.

Arsenal is a heroic club that has entered the UEFA Champions League for thirteen consecutive seasons, and even entered the second stage of the UEFA Champions League for eleven consecutive seasons, which is the knockout stage after the restructuring of the 2003-2004 season.

There are two rounds left in the group stage. Strong teams like Bayern, Real Madrid and Barcelona are ranked first in the group. If you want to avoid these teams in the 1/8 finals, you must win the group first, so Dortmund must be won at home. The anti-group first, and then defeated Olympiacos in the last round.

Perfect!

As a result, Dortmund, who came to the Emirates Stadium in North London to adapt to the venue, encountered an off-the-ball move from Arsenal. The players had just warmed up and were ready to play simple techniques and tactics, and worked on the turf adapted to the venue.

As a result, the pitch began to be sprinkled with water just after a few passes, and the players had to run to the sidelines quickly to avoid getting drenched.

Dortmund staff tried to find the person in charge of the stadium, but the other party insisted on maintaining the stadium as an excuse and refused to turn off the sprinklers.

If you want to continue practicing, you have to wait until after the watering maintenance of the court is over.

In this regard, the Dortmund team had to leave the Emirates Stadium early and return to the hotel where they stayed.

The weather in London in November is already very cool, with a minimum temperature of 5 degrees Celsius and a maximum temperature of only 10 degrees Celsius. London is also cloudy and rainy. This kind of weather can easily cause players to catch a cold due to acclimatization.

At the same time, the captain Van Persie, who had scored goals in the round of confrontation, was interviewed after the training. He said: "We can retreat unscathed in the away game, and we have no reason to lose points at home in this game. Victory! It is the whole team. The goal."

Dortmund captain Kyle, who returned to the hotel where he stayed, angrily criticized Arsenal's hospitality. The European mainstream media was very surprised by this.

Tang Zheng, who has received much attention, did not show any anger. He said calmly: "This shows that Arsenal are afraid of us. Otherwise, how could they interfere with our adaptation to the venue in this way?"

The Arsenal Club, who learned about the situation, held a press conference as soon as possible. They said that the problems encountered in adapting to the venue were entirely decided by the staff without permission and had nothing to do with the club, and the relevant staff had been fired.

Despite this, the German media was still angry about the Arsenal club's off-the-box move.

In fact, the Arsenal club was also quite wronged. They did not have a special explanation with the staff, it was entirely the staff's personal decision...

On the day of the game, the Emirates Stadium, which can accommodate 60,000 fans, was packed.

The atmosphere at the scene was very frenzied. Arsenal fans made the home court into a sea of ​​fiery red to deter the visiting Dortmund.

Arsenal captain Robin van Persie created enough chances to score goals at the beginning of the game. To the disappointment of the home fans, Weidenfeller flew to save Van Persie's close shot with a single palm, otherwise Arsenal sitting at home We must take the lead in breaking the deadlock.

British Sky commentator Andy Gray said excitedly: "Robin van Persie is in really good shape recently!"

"He has scored an astonishing ten goals in the last five games. He has scored fifteen goals in seventeen games this season, and he scored twice in the weekend league to lead Arsenal to five consecutive league victories. He also scored 31 goals in the annual league, which is only three goals away from Thierry Henry's 34 goals in the year created in 2004!" added commentary guest Martin Taylor.

However, within two minutes, Tang Zheng returned the favor.

Captain Kyle blocked the ball from Ramsey's feet with the assistance of Pirlo. After receiving the pass, Tang Zheng, Gotze and Lewandowski kicked the ball in the frontcourt consecutively, and then suddenly pulled out at 30 meters Angry shot.

Even though the long shot was 30 meters long, the goalkeeper Szesny still didn't touch the football.

Fortunately for the home fans, the football brushed against the outer edge of the right column and crashed into the billboard behind the baseline, making a crisp "bang".

"Ooh-oh--"

The Emirates Stadium also burst into a huge exclamation with lingering fear.

German sky commentator Marcel Leff raised his arms and shouted: "Arsenal has No. 10 Robin van Persie, and Dortmund also has No. 10 Tang. His long-range shooting skills are amazing! It's a pity that the sight is a little bit off, otherwise Dortmund Opened the scoring in less than three minutes."

Immediately, the on-site director switched to the away team area. The head coach Klopp was very sorry. He put his head in his hands, as if the team had lost the ball.

Arsene Wenger of the home team, who had just sat back on the coaching bench, stood up again. He complained loudly to Alexander Song, one of the double midfielders: "Pay attention to defense! Don't let him easily take a long shot!"

Alexander Song felt very aggrieved. Dortmund's frontcourt attack was too skillful, and they didn't give him a chance to step forward at all.

Of course, the head coach's arrangement still has to be followed, he waved his hand to express his understanding.

The two No. 10s performed so well on the field that the opponent had to invest more defensive strength to take care of them.

In terms of the road to promotion, there is actually not much pressure on both sides of the competition, and a draw is the best result.

But from the knockout level, it is best to decide the winner.

Of course, it's good for Dortmund to keep the tie.

If the game draws with Arsenal, they can get the first place in the group as long as they win Marseille at home in the last group match.

Westphalia 1un Stadium is the home of the No. 1 devil in Europe, and Dortmund will definitely win the opponent at their home court!

In fact, in Wenger's heart, he doesn't want the team to play too aggressively. The German national derby at the Allianz Arena is still vivid.

Dortmund's fast counterattack is extremely threatening, and it is no worse than Real Madrid coached by Mourinho in terms of counterattack speed and effect.

In this background of wanting to win but not wanting to lose, the two sides of the game will focus more on the competition in the midfield in the next game time.

In the blink of an eye, 20 minutes passed in the first half, and the two sides did not create an attack that was enough to threaten the opponent's goal.

However, the fans at the scene were very enjoyable to watch. Ying has always emphasized physical confrontation and fast-paced offense. The Bundesliga has changed from emphasizing physical confrontation to the current physical and technical development, so the offensive and defensive transitions of the two teams are very fast.

Dortmund has Pirlo responsible for choosing the specific direction of attack, and Arsenal has Arteta to organize the attack in the midfield.

One second, Alexander Song completed a visually impactful shovel on the ground in the midfield, and the next second, Kyle or Tang Zheng fought back.

Central 5 commentator He Weibiao's personal opinion: "From the perspective of strength, there is not much difference in strength between the two sides. In the past 20 minutes of the game, it is not difficult to see that both sides have taken good care of each other's core players, and the offense is difficult to threaten. It's become more normal…”

Half an hour into the game, the fanatical atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium has not declined, and every fan present is doing their best to cheer for the team they support.

Therefore, the Arsenal players playing at home played extraordinarily hard. Dortmund, who had previously occupied the midfield advantage, gradually changed their roles and focused on defense.

Tang Zheng also focused more on defense and connection in the midfield, but part of his attention was still on observing Arsenal's defensive loopholes, and then looking for opportunities to make a final decision.

Arsenal is facing reorganization this summer. After more than two months of running-in, the tacit understanding has been greatly improved. Therefore, Van Persie, who has won five consecutive victories in the league and became the captain, is the direct beneficiary. He has scored amazing goals in the past five games. Ten goals is the best evidence.

With cheers from the familiar Emirates Stadium and enthusiastic fans, captain Robin van Persie finally broke the deadlock in the 37th minute of the game.

Walcott, who was in the 25-meter area on the right, received the ball and gave it back to Ramsey immediately, and then obliquely inserted Schmelzer and Santana's ribs.

Ramsey, who received the football, did not stop the ball, but picked a pass to attack the right rib, which is the direction of Walcott's oblique insertion.

For Walcott's sudden change in running style, the problem of Santana not getting along well with the team's defense was infinitely magnified, and he and Schmelzer closed the door half a beat later.

Walcott, who has the highest mileage data in football games, has lived up to the game company's settings. He was given the nickname 'Little Tiger', breaking through obstacles like a tiger descending from the mountain, and has stopped and passed.

"Beautiful!" Accompanied by the exclamation of British Sky commentator Andy Gray, Walcott made a slight adjustment and swept the ball directly between the small penalty area line and the penalty spot.

Van Persie, who was originally on par with Hummels, suddenly stepped up. He was very conscious of grabbing points while running. He fell to the ground and stretched his feet earlier than Hummels, and stabbed the football towards the goal first.

Tang Zheng recovered a deep position, but due to the tasks assigned by the head coach Klopp before the game, he was still some distance away from the center line, and could only witness Van Persie complete the shot.

By the time Weidenfeller made another save, it was too late, and the football fell into the arms of the snow-white net.

"Aww-"

The Emirates Stadium immediately created a tsunami of shouts, quickly sweeping the audience.

Van Persie, who scored the goal, was very excited. He spread his arms while running, like an eagle soaring in the sky.

The head coach Wenger also became more at ease because of this goal. After taking Arteta to the sidelines to explain a few words, he returned to the coach's bench and sat down.

On the other end, Klopp was a little dissatisfied, but he had nothing to do. Only Santana was available during the period when Subotic was recovering from his injury. Compared with last season's stable four-man defense, there must be a gap.

The game restarted, and Dortmund's midfielders significantly strengthened their offense under the frenzied atmosphere of the scene.

Pirlo, who controlled the rhythm of the game, realized that he was too impatient and a little impetuous in the frontcourt. He took the initiative to ask for the ball. Rhythm.

He knows that it is very dangerous to play fast-paced games with English teams, especially at the English team's home court.

England is the league with the fastest offensive and defensive rhythm in the world, and actively speeding up the offensive speed will be exactly what it wants.

Standing on the sidelines, Klopp was very satisfied with Pirlo's choice, so he just made a gesture towards Tang Zheng to play the game as planned and returned to the coach's bench.

An old house where a treasure.

In world football, it is vividly reflected.

The rhythm of both sides has slowed down to varying degrees. It is difficult to break the tough defensive system of the opponent without mentioning the process of the game.

Facts also prove this point, Tang Zheng has been observing the loopholes in Arsenal's defensive system, but found nothing.

What he can do now is to organize the frontcourt offense and defense in the middle, so as not to expand the score as much as possible.

Dortmund did not significantly strengthen their offense, and Arsenal, who were playing at home, were not in a hurry. They are now leading the score and chose to play steadily under the tactical arrangement of head coach Arsene Wenger.

The game is a 90-minute battle, there is absolutely no need to exhaust all skills and tactics in the half game, that will only speed up the pace of death.

Of course, this is directly related to the intense league matches played by both sides last weekend.

In addition, Dortmund will usher in the Ruhr Derby again this weekend, so there is nothing wrong with focusing on insurance.

The referee on duty saw that the attacking strength of both sides of the game was not strong, so he blew the whistle to end the first half just after 45 minutes.

Over the past 45 minutes, Arsenal have led Dortmund with 56 per cent of ball possession, while also slightly ahead in the number of shots and range on target.

So the Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium were very happy, they sang the team anthem led by the fans organization

Singing the team anthem has always been a banner of English games, and the Arsenal fans at the Emirates Stadium performed it to the extreme, full of momentum.

The Dortmund fans who came from afar were not idle either, they also sang the team song.

It was just that they were completely suppressed by the Arsenal team anthem in the case of an absolute numerical disadvantage, but the Dortmund fans were not discouraged, but continued to sing the team anthem until the second half of the game began. 8
