Chapter 786 Controlling the Rhythm

"So smooth!"

Giroud off the field couldn't help feeling, and at the same time, he paid more attention to his national team teammate Kanter.

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

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

Every pass is resolute and quick, and every handling of the ball is extremely stable.

Besides, driven by Lucky, the entire Arsenal is changing rapidly, and their adjustment status is soaring like a rocket.

At this moment, when Lucky 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 Le Kai behind him, knows that the physical confrontation is impossible to contend with, so he wants to predict Le Kai's passing line.

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 pulled the body suddenly, and directly pushed the ball to the right of Fernandez, and the whole person also passed by from the right 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 in such a big stride.

"Dangerous!"

Portuguese head coach Gabriel **** felt tight. In this game, he hopes that the Portuguese midfielder can compete with Arsenal. Even if they can't compete, they can't be defeated.

But since Le Kai took control of the midfield, a few consecutive passes helped his teammates find their status, and then used their personal abilities to open up the gap.

Fortunately, this is only the midfield, the back line.

The next second, **** suddenly widened his eyes.

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 Portugal's defense was torn apart.

Aubameyang on the wing stepped up his horse, pretended to shoot 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 goalkeeper had no time to react, and the ball went into the net.

The whole stadium instantly quieted down!

Go in. Goal?

so easy?

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

They were still making up the gap in the midfield, and Arsenal suddenly scored.

Such 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 coach bench on the sidelines was also boiling.

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

"It's even 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 members of the coaching staff of Sporting Portugal opened their mouths wide.

Lost the ball just like that?

So easy?

One escape, one through ball and a goal is scored!

This kind of 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 gives people the feeling that it is flat, and the whole process is even more uneventful, but it is so natural.

Sporting didn't even react, they conceded the ball.

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 looked at each other in blank dismay.

Newly appointed in the past two years, the sports director Hugo Viana, who is 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 change within the top-management and even the first team.

After Hugo Viana came to 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 Portuguese sports are sometimes cheated.

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

Looking at Le Kai's performance, these high-level executives of Sporting Lisbon hated their teeth.

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

And now, it's all over.

Lucky is already a player and even the 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!"

Lucky 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 felt a little urgent and didn't want to end.

And he played less than 30 minutes.

However, he did not dare to disobey Mourinho's decision, and ended up helpless, but with a goal near him, he was a little bit confident.

Giroud wears the No. 9 jersey at Arsenal.

For Portuguese players, Giroud is no stranger.

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 doesn't want Giroud to just take on the role of a terminator.

He bought Giroud just for the retreat and support of the frontcourt and the distribution of the ball.

Giroud also has complete opinions on Mourinho's proposal.

In fact, as a center, it can be said that he is one of the least played positions in the game.

Since the center forward is the goal arrow of a team and the person closest to the opponent's goal, the opponent's players will not allow the center forward to 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 to shoot.

This is the job of a 9th position.

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 he is far away from the goal, he has gained more opportunities to touch the ball and a higher tactical status. For this reason, Giroud feels that this change is not too bad.

However, he didn't have enough running-in with the Arsenal players, and he needs to cooperate again and again to increase his proficiency.

"Play in 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 approach Giroud for an explanation.

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 retreat 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 retreat and making the ball itself is extremely deceptive, and it needs 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 lower.

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

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

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

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

Portugal Sports successfully obtained the ball, which can make them play more smoothly.

But Arsenal are obviously practicing their lineup and tactics, so they gave them the ball.

This is not considered snatching, but the other party voluntarily giving up.

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