Strong Waist

Chapter Six Mastering the Rhythm

"So smooth!"

Giroud off the field couldn't help but sigh with emotion, and at the same time, he paid more attention to his national teammate Kanter.

Kanter's performance in this European Cup was very poor, and he failed to show his steals and interception efficiency at Arsenal. Many teammates expressed a doubtful attitude towards this.

But at this time, Kanter in the arena is like a fish in water, without the sense of bewilderment of the French team at all.

Every pass is firm and fast, and every handling of the ball is extremely stable.

And driven by Lucky, the entire Arsenal is undergoing rapid changes, and their adjustment status is skyrocketing like a rocket.

At this moment, when Le Kai was catching the ball, he suddenly turned his head to look to the other side, and his left shoulder also sank suddenly.

Fernandez (Feel B), who is defending Lucky behind him, wants to predict Lucky's passing line when he knows that physical confrontation is impossible.

Based on this decision, he also stepped out of the center of gravity towards the area Lucy turned his head to observe.

This time it was all right, Le Kai jerked his body and pushed the ball directly to Fernandez's right side, and his whole body also passed by from the right side in an instant.

"what?"

Fernandez was shocked, he wanted to stop, but the center of gravity of his body had shifted, and he couldn't stop Lucy at all.

Le Kai rushed towards the opponent's big penalty area with such strides.

"It's dangerous!"

Sporting Portugal head coach Gabriel Jesus felt tight. In this game, he hopes that the Portuguese Sporting midfielder can compete with Arsenal. Even if they cannot compete, they cannot be defeated.

But since Lucky took control of the midfield, he passed several consecutive passes to help his teammates find their status, and then used his personal ability to open the gap.

Fortunately, this is only the midfield, the defense...

In the next second, Jesus' eyes widened suddenly.

After Le Kai came near the penalty area line, he stuffed the ball into the ankle of the opponent's player.

In an instant, Sporting Lisbon's defense was torn apart.

Aubameyang on the wing stepped up, shot in sheepskin and continued to score the ball, and the ball rolled to the middle.

Lukaku shot horizontally with the inner instep while standing on the pile.

He hit a reverse far corner, the keeper had no time to react and the ball went into the net.

The whole stadium fell silent in an instant!

Go...Goal?

so easy?

The players of Sporting Portugal looked at each other in blank dismay.

They were still closing the gap in midfield and Arsenal scored suddenly.

This kind of offensive efficiency!

"Beautiful transmission!!!"

Lukaku's loud laughter broke the silence of the arena.

The depression in the European Cup eased instantly after this goal.

Sure enough, I still play comfortably in the club, but I am too aggrieved to play in the national team.

The coaching bench on the sidelines was also boiling.

Arteta shook his head and said with emotion: "Kay's state..."

"Better than last season!"

"Who can stop him?"

"He has turned into a monster!"

"A complete monster!"

The coaches shook their heads with emotion.

As an Arsenal coach, I have such an idea, and even more so as an opponent.

The coaching staff of Sporting Lisbon opened their mouths wide open.

Just dropped the ball?

so easy?

One escape, one through and a goal is scored!

This goal conversion efficiency is simply unreasonable.

Although Aubameyang's running position and Lukaku's shooting are excellent.

But the biggest contributor to this goal is Lucky.

This goal gave people the feeling that it was flat, and the whole process was even more uneventful, but it was so logical.

Sporting didn't even know it, they conceded the goal.

Lucky's performance in the entire offensive process seemed flat, but the extreme sense of stability was full of emotion.

At the same time, in the VIP room, the senior management and management of Sporting Portugal also looked at each other in blank dismay.

Newly appointed in the past two years, Hugo Viana, the sports director known as the "European black shopkeeper", gritted his teeth; "The players with this performance were sold at a low price by those trash, what a loss. !"

From Sporting Lisbon to Sporting Lisbon, this club has undergone a major internal change, the top-management and even the first team.

After Hugo Viana took power, Sporting Lisbon also frequently exported excellent players to the top European leagues at high prices and was known as the famous "European black shop".

But even such a Portuguese sports team is sometimes cheated.

And Lucky in front of him is the biggest and most failed transfer.

Seeing Lucky's performance, these top executives of Sporting Lisbon hated their teeth.

If it were them, Arsenal would still want to get Lucky, so they must not shed their skin.

And now, it's all over.

Lucky is already a player and even captain of Arsenal.

And Sporting will never be able to smooth out this loss.

"Very good, slowly find the state, don't worry, think about how we played before!"

Le Kai retreated while encouraging his teammates.

At the same time, Mourinho on the sidelines made a substitution gesture.

Lukaku, who scored the goal, was replaced and Giroud came off the bench.

Lukaku saw that Giroud was a little anxious and didn't want to end.

And he only played less than 30 minutes.

However, he didn't dare to disobey Mourinho's decision, and ended up helpless, but with a goal, he was a little bit confident.

Giroud wears the number 9 jersey at Arsenal.

Giroud is no stranger to Portuguese players.

After all, in the just-concluded European Cup final, they defeated Giroud's French team to win the championship.

Giroud is tall and slender compared to Lukaku.

And Giroud's characteristics are also extremely prominent.

Proficient in running positions and shooting skills, he is an extremely perfect No. 9 position.

But Mourinho does not want Giroud to just assume the role of a terminator.

He bought Giroud for the purpose of retreating in the frontcourt and distributing the ball.

Giroud also has complete opinions on Mourinho's proposal.

In fact, as a center forward, it can be said to be one of the least played positions in the game.

Since the center is the goal arrow of a team and the person closest to the opponent's goal, the opponent's players will not let the center hold the ball for a long time or hold the ball in a dangerous zone.

For this reason, an excellent center needs to learn how to complete the finishing task in the limited chance of touching the ball and even the only chance of shooting.

That's the job of a number 9.

But in Mourinho's proposal, Giroud needs to retreat to make the ball.

This means that Giroud needs to withdraw from the penalty area and bring out the opponent's defensive strength.

Although far away from the goal, he has gained more touches and a higher tactical status. For this reason, Giroud feels that this change is not bad.

However, the running-in between him and the Arsenal players is not enough, and he needs to cooperate again and again to increase his proficiency.

"Play the way you are good at, you are not familiar with our style of play, so express it in words as much as possible, and we will also attack around your points!"

Lucky took the initiative to find Jirou to explain.

Giroud also nodded heavily.

Lucky's support means that he can integrate into the Arsenal team faster, which is a good start.

"Captain, if necessary, you can also pass it directly to me and let me shoot!" Giroud laughed; "After all, I always draw back and score the ball, so I can't interfere with their judgment."

Le Kai nodded with a smile; "Understood, I will continue to explain it like this!"

Lucky conveyed Giroud's meaning.

In this regard, the Arsenal players have no opinion.

They are also very clear that the so-called retracement of the ball itself is extremely deceptive, and it is necessary to put pressure on the opponent's defensive players on the basis of teammates' running positions.

As for Giroud's choice of splitting the ball or doing it alone, these are for him to judge by himself.

Giroud's appearance made Arsenal's position slightly deeper.

After all, this tactic itself is based on defensive counterattacks.

Arsenal completely gave up the ball and conducted a defensive counterattack drill.

If it is in an official game, Arsenal will not do this in the face of an intensive offensive team like Sporting Portugal.

But after all, it is a warm-up match, and everything is for tactical drills. The result of the game is not the goal, but the process is important.

Sporting Lisbon successfully obtained the ball here, which can make them play more smoothly.

However, Arsenal are obviously rehearsing their lineup and tactics, so they gave them the ball.

This is not considered to be snatched, but the other party's own initiative to give up.

In this case, the players of Sporting Lisbon felt a little upset.
