Genius remembers the permanent address of this site in one second: www.81zw.us

Before the UEFA Champions League knockout draw, Arsenal still has a league to play. Some things just happen to be that Arsenal’s opponent in the 16th round of the league is Newcastle United, which beat Chelsea in the previous round.

This game was obviously not specially arranged by the FA. The schedule has been arranged since the beginning of the season, so this is purely coincidental.

In the world of football, this kind of coincidence is actually very common. This is also one of the charms of football. After all, no one knows what the outcome of the game will be.

It is like the game between Arsenal and Newcastle United. If Newcastle United did not beat Chelsea in the previous round, then this game will certainly not attract so much attention.

In addition, the most interesting thing about Arsenal is Li Shou's record of not conceding a goal. The record of not conceding a goal in the Premier League was created by Manchester United goalkeeper Van der Sar.

On November 8, 2008, Arsenal played against Manchester United at home, but Arsenal still had Nasri, and it was this midfielder who penetrated Van der Sar's goal and scored twice.

Van der Sar’s record of not conceding a goal began after losing to Arsenal. From the thirteenth to the 28th round, Van der Sar’s non-losing goal spanned nearly four months.

There is another very interesting situation here. Van der Sar’s record of not conceding a ball was after losing to Arsenal, while Van der Sar’s record was just terminated by Newcastle United, a total of 1311 minutes.

Li Shou’s record of not conceding a goal is not Arsenal’s record of not conceding a goal. There is an essential difference. From the third round to the sixth round, Li Shou started, but in the sixth round, Li Shou sent out a red card. On the stadium, Arsenal then lost the ball again, and even in the next two rounds Arsenal tied and lost.

In the ninth round of the league, Li Shou returned, and Arsenal had a seven-game winning streak, so it is true that Li Shou has not lost a goal for more than ten rounds.

Although Li Shou is still far from Van der Sar’s record of not conceding a goal, according to Li Shou’s current performance, the gap is not difficult to chase. As long as Arsenal can pass Liverpool in the 17th round, other teams will be strong. Not too strong.

In fact, even if Liverpool's performance this season is a bit poor, let alone the Champions League team failed to appear, the league only scored 21 points after the 15th round of the league, 15 points away from Arsenal.

Points do not mean everything. The game still depends on the players' performance on the spot. Liverpool is not bad in terms of strength, but for the current Arsenal, Liverpool is an afterthought. Arsenal needs to solve Newcastle United first. Eligible to discuss Liverpool.

The recent Newcastle United record is quite good, winning 6 games in the last 8 league rounds, including a champion team like Chelsea that has never lost this season.

And before the start of the game with Newcastle United, there was bad news from Arsenal, Koscielny was injured again, but Arsenal also had good news, and Derby returned from injury.

But Debuich’s return does not quench his thirst. What Arsenal now needs is a central defender. There are now five full-backs in the Arsenal team, not to mention Chambers, who was suspended due to a yellow card, and the young Bellerin and the other two sides. Gibson and Mereal, the central defender still has only one Mertesacker at Arsenal.

So in this game, there are full-backs who want to serve as a guest central defender to partner with Mertesacker, and Wenger chose Derby not long after his injury, with Gibson and Bellerin starting on both sides.

In midfield, Flamini, Ramsey and Cazorla, Griezmann and Sanchez on the front line returned, and the center is Giroud. Although the French center has not recovered to his best form, his role as a bridgehead is still obvious. And Giroud is relatively reliable compared to Welbeck.

Arsenal playing at home will naturally not be polite, not to mention that since Li Shou became Arsenal's starting goalkeeper, Arsenal's tactics have begun to change.

Arsenal finished the first shot in the first two minutes of the game. Giroud received a pass from Sanchez and carried the defensive player in the penalty area.

Taylor’s last game was suspended from two yellows to one red. In this game, Newcastle United played Williamson, who was over 1.9 meters tall. Obviously, this was a targeted choice.

But sometimes height does not represent everything, let alone Giroud is not inferior to Williamson in this respect, and even in terms of personal ability, Giroud is much better than Williamson.

This was directly reflected in the game. In the seventh minute, Cazorla picked the ball into Newcastle United’s penalty area. Giroud once again watched Williamson’s header ferry. Griezmann shot from the side and was shot by Newcastle United goalkeeper Allen. Vic flew out to block.

Cazorla took a corner kick and Mertesacker, as the first altitude on the court, topped the ball. If Mertesacker were not lucky, Arsenal would be able to score.

The Newcastle United goalkeeper did not make a save facing the German header, but the ball eventually hit the crossbar, but the ball did not bounce off the baseline, but bounced back into the penalty area.

Griezmann, the round-conscious Frenchman is definitely one of the best frontcourts in Arsenal, even Sanchez can't compare with Griezmann, so Griezmann is also the person who reacted fastest in the entire penalty area.

But the quick reaction does not mean a goal. Griezmann did finish the shot, but his shot finally hit the full back standing on the goal line.

"Today, Goddess of Luck seems to have chosen Newcastle United." Once on the crossbar and once on the defensive player, today's Arsenal seems to really lack a little luck.

Luck may no longer be on Arsenal~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but the initiative has always been at Arsenal's feet. Newcastle United have never seen Arsenal's goal ten minutes before the start of the game. Li Shou can only maintain his body through his own exercise. The function.

And this situation continued. In the 13th minute, Newcastle United scored into the hinterland of Arsenal to find the offer of Flamini and Debuich, and the ball returned to Arsenal's feet again.

Ramsey immediately sent the ball to the left, Sanchez rushed after receiving the pass, while Giroud in the middle and Griezmann on the other side also rushed into the penalty area of ​​Newcastle United.

Sanchez’s breakthrough ability is the strongest in the Arsenal team, and Sanchez is also the first scorer in the Arsenal team, so when Sanchez hit the Newcastle United defense with the ball, Newcastle United’s defense naturally tilted towards Sanchez.

Sanchez has never been a selfish player, so after attracting Newcastle United defenders, Sanchez kicked the ball into the penalty area.

In the penalty area, Giroud has thrown off the defense Williamson and rushed to the penalty spot, and then Griezmann has also thrown off the defensive players to outflank at any time.
