The Midfield Master

Less than 10 minutes into the game, Everton fell behind by one goal, and the fans in the audience were amazed.

Everton's pre-match deployment seemed to be restricted by Arsenal. Not only was the opponent suppressed on the scene at the beginning, but they even fell behind in the score.

If changes are not made quickly, it will remain in this state, not to mention an equalizer, it is hard to say how many more goals will be conceded in the first half.

For them, who are aiming to compete for a place in the Champions League, this is undoubtedly a huge blow.

If you want to maintain the hope of entering the Champions League, you must respond quickly in the next game, and you cannot continue to be beaten passively like this.

On another level, although it was Cazorla who scored this free kick, it was Ozil who created the opportunity.

And Ozil's performance in the opening 10 minutes was also very good, and he is the core of Arsenal's offense.

In this competition of the best of the month between him and Xia Ze, he has taken the lead.

"Scramble fiercely, don't be polite to them!" Martinez yelled angrily from the sidelines after losing the ball.

Xia Ze walked towards the midfield with his head downcast, ready to kick off.

This game has just started, the opponent is only leading by one goal, we still have half-time to equalize or even overtake the score, we cannot give up!

Xia Ze said to himself secretly in his heart.

He may not be as good as other midfielders in terms of technique and body, but he has one advantage over Ozil, and that is his willpower.

Being able to fight against the wind and become more courageous is the quality that Xia Ze has cultivated in the R\u0026F youth team and Maritimo. He has survived adversity since he was a child, and he has never been afraid of the storm in front of him.

Although Ozil is German, his personality is the same as his nickname, and he is relatively weak. Today's two confrontations with Xia Ze were successful because Xia Ze was at a loss for a while when facing a world-class star.

And after accidentally injuring Messi last summer, Xia Ze also corrected his actions a lot, and stopped shoveling easily, so as not to hurt others who are also professional players.

But in this way,

But Xia Ze was at a disadvantage in this confrontation.

But this conceded goal woke him up. If you don't have the courage to fight, then what kind of professional player is it? As long as it is not a malicious foul or intentional injury, it is fine to have a clear conscience!

After the mind is set, the game restarts. From Xia Ze's running, his teammates can also see his changes.

In the opening 10 minutes, because Xia Ze was limited to the confrontation with Ozil, everything was tied.

Now that the mind is set, coupled with the fact that his teammates are determined to counterattack the opponent after losing the ball, Everton, under the leadership of Xia Ze, began to counterattack Arsenal's goal.

Because the midfield advantage is on Arsenal's side, Everton's tactic is to pass through the midfield quickly, without too many inversions in the midfield, but pass from the side to quickly approach the opponent's penalty area.

Xia Ze's role here is to receive the pass from his teammates in front of the penalty area, not to organize in the midfield. Now his role is more like a second striker.

Miralas dribbled the ball on the right side. Xia Ze stepped forward to cooperate with him and passed the ball near the bottom line. Miralas overwhelmed Gibbs with speed and made a direct cross.

The ball crossed an arc and bypassed Merdesacker at the front point. Lukaku and Pienaar both grabbed points in the penalty area. The ball had already bypassed Merdesacker. One point, you can hit the ball in and help the team equalize the score!

"Lukaku has a great chance!" Redknapp shouted excitedly.

There was also an uproar at the scene, and the Everton fans in the stands behind the goal even stood up, raising their hands to celebrate the goal.

Before Koscielny, Lukaku headed the ball and the ball flew directly to the center of the goal!

At such a short distance, although the angle of the shot is not tricky, but the ball is coming so fast, there is a high probability that it can get into the net.

But Ospina in front of the goal did not give Lukaku a chance to equalize the score. He reacted very quickly, almost blocking it from the crossbar with a single punch almost at the moment the ball crossed the line.

"Oh……"

The voices in the stands that were about to cheer turned into disappointment and regret.

Lukaku held his head in his hands and stood inside the penalty area, obviously regretting that he had missed such a good opportunity.

"Beautiful! This is a world-class save!" Redknapp Jr. shouted again, excitedly praising Ospina's save.

"Ospina really deserves the trust of Professor Wenger. Since he replaced Szczesny as Arsenal's starting goalkeeper, he has been playing well. His reaction in front of the goal is undoubtedly in the Premier League. The top five." Redknapp Jr. continued to explain the game, and the big screen in the stadium was also replaying the shots and saves this time, and the fans in the audience were in an uproar.

Looking at Ospina, who was high-fiving his teammates to boost morale, Xia Ze was shocked again.

Where did these monsters come from? Are all Premier League goalkeepers like octopuses? It can be thrown out at such a short distance.

Moreover, it is understandable that De Gea, Courtois, Petr Cech and Joe Hart made such world-class saves, but where did Ospina get out of?

I had hardly heard of his name before this season. A No. 2 goalkeeper with such strength is too abnormal!

"Don't be in a daze, get ready to fight for the header!" Gibson noticed that Xia Ze was in a daze, and hurried over to pat him on the shoulder.

Xia Ze looked up, and sure enough, Lukaku and Jagielka had entered the penalty area, and it was captain Baines who was about to take a corner kick in the corner area.

"That's right! That's it! Continue to suppress them, and we will definitely score if we continue to play like this!" Although Martinez on the sidelines felt sorry for the team missing such an opportunity, he still did not forget to cheer for the team .

Although his words were overwhelmed by the voices at the scene, it seemed that all Everton players had such thoughts in their hearts.

In the next few minutes, they used the momentum of the home court to change the decline after the opening and put Arsenal in the half-court attack.

Arsenal's players also retreated a bit because of Everton's offensive after the goal.

In this way, although their midfielders are good at handling the ball, they don't have much advantage in defensive steals, and Xia Ze's passing in the frontcourt is even more threatening. c
