Chapter 1203

Chapter 1203

Under the intensive schedule, the entire Premier League team not only has to face how to deal with the big devil Arsenal, but also has to achieve stable performance in other competitions. For this reason, every team is racking their brains on how to use Arsenal dismounted.

In this case, Tottenham suffered a lot.

In the just-concluded league game, when Tottenham beat their opponents, their core player Harry Kane was injured.

In the second half of the season, player injuries are a very common thing.

How to deal with injuries correctly is also a topic that major teams need to spend a lot of experience to study. However, in a situation like Tottenham, seeing the seasons of the Carabao Cup, League, Champions League, etc., the core players are injured. problem.

It's as if, with an important event ahead, it makes sense for Arsenal to lose Lucky.

Fortunately, Harry Kane's injury is not serious, but it will take 2-3 weeks to adjust.

And in the dense time of the season, 2-3 weeks can affect many, many things.

This is also a headache for Tottenham coach Pochettino.

The immediate priority, of course, is how they cope with their upcoming home game against Arsenal.

The second round of the English League Cup semi-final is coming soon, and Tottenham are missing a general, which has a great impact on the trend of the game.

Of course, for Arsenal, this is great news.

Although Tottenham are currently mainly relying on the sudden outbreak of Sun Xingmin, without Harry Kane's organization and fulcrum role in the frontcourt, Sun Xingmin will also be greatly affected.

In this atmosphere, the second round of the English League Cup semi-finals came.

February 2, North London, White Hart Lane.

Throughout the stadium, Tottenham fans looked anxiously into the stadium.

The words Tottenham 0:1 Arsenal are printed on the scoreboard.

And the game time has only passed less than 5 minutes.

At the beginning of the game, Arsenal's front trident took advantage of a counterattack opportunity, and Giroud bombed from high altitude and scored the first goal.

And this goal also caused Tottenham to panic.

After all, in the case of falling behind at home and falling behind with a goal scored by Arsenal, the consequences can be imagined.

"Tottenham played too passively in this game, Harry Kane's missing role was infinitely magnified in this game, especially when they faced Arsenal, they always couldn't find it in the organization and advancement of the frontcourt. To a suitable connection point!"

"Pochettino wants to rely on Sun Xingmin and Lamela's ability to tear apart the defense, and at the same time wants to use the four midfielders to contain Arsenal."

"But facing a gunner with high morale who just won Juventus in the Champions League, it is really difficult for them to develop tactical goals, not to mention, in this game, Arsenal's front trident performed extremely well! "

Paul Merson spoke highly of Arsenal's trident.

The three players of Dembele, Aubameyang and Giroud cooperated very well in the frontcourt.

The three of them can always give Tottenham a great threat.

Tottenham also lacked Harry Kane in this game, and the other starting players were all on the field, but in this case, they still could not stop Giroud and other Arsenal's tridents.

Dembele started three times in a row.

It cannot be said that he replaced Mane's position, but with his outstanding performance and adaptability with Aubameyang, he got more opportunities.

Even Mourinho and Arsenal's coaching staff believe that Arsenal's offensive ability is stronger when Dembele is on the field.

And this is also confirmed in this game.

Dembele and other Arsenal strikers charged in the frontcourt.

They played very smoothly, and with enough protection behind them, they hardly faced too much pressure.

Even in the face of danger, they have enough space to pass back.

On the other hand, for Tottenham, whether it is Sun Xingmin or Lamela, when they hold the ball in the frontcourt, they need to fight alone most of the time, and it is difficult to form an effective frontcourt cooperation.

"Harry Kane is not in the frontcourt, and it is difficult for Tottenham's offense to form a connection. Eriksson is working hard to get an effect in the frontcourt, but Arsenal will not give him this opportunity to pass and connect!"

Under the camera, Lucky and Kanter cut off Tottenham's offensive line, which made Eriksson even more uncomfortable.

Many people said that Eriksson was always invisible in the face of difficulties, but no one knew what kind of difficulties Eriksson encountered.

Just like this moment, no matter how hard he tries, he can't connect his teammates together.

Time passed little by little.

When Tottenham faced Arsenal's counterattack, their situation became more dangerous every time.

This also made them more anxious.

Once Arsenal get more kicking opportunities, it is only a matter of time before they break the goal.

Arsenal scored another goal, so it would be a huge disaster for Tottenham.

For this reason, Tottenham began to retreat to the defensive line and increased their defensive strength.

They used this to spend the first half safely.

But the entire first half has also consumed a lot of their physical energy.

This also led to Tottenham's near collapse in the second half.

In the second half, Arsenal's offensive became more violent, and their counterattack became more intense.

There is a penetration of the Trident inside.

Outside, there are long-range threats from Dembele, Lucky, Aubameyang and others.

It can be said that Tottenham goalkeeper Lloris is under great pressure.

Arsenal's offensive pressure is still sufficient.

In particular, Aubameyang's performance on the wing began to become even better.

Different from the previous style that only knew how to run wildly on the side, with the help of Giroud and Dembele, Aubameyang has more offensive options.

With the cooperation of the three, Tottenham's defense has been overwhelmed.

In the 70th minute, Giroud ferried the ball to Aubameyang with a header.

Aubameyang moved forward to follow up, watched the ball jump directly in the air, and completed a volley kick.

That's right, it was kicked directly in.

During the whole process, Tottenham's defense barely reacted.

When they turned their heads, the ball had already entered the net.

"Arsenal's second goal!! Aubameyang is the final word!"

"With this goal, the chances left for Tottenham become even smaller!"

"Arsenal has a great probability of defeating Tottenham and becoming the first team to enter the Carabao Cup final, and this also brings Arsenal one step closer to their second championship of the season!"

As the commentator said, when Tottenham could not pose a threat to Arsenal as a whole, Tottenham did not have any comeback points.

And Pochettino off the field seems to understand this truth.

He started to replace Sun Xingmin, Lamela and other main players in 75 minutes, this is for the Champions League and the league.

In this game where there is no chance, it is useless to waste energy.

As the head coach, he must be able to make a correct judgment.

After losing Sun Xingmin, Lamela and others, there was basically no suspense in the game.

The whistle blew when the 90 minutes ended.

Arsenal defeated Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 away and successfully advanced to the final of the Carabao Cup.

They became the first team to reach the Carabao Cup final this season.

And their opponent, with a high probability, is Manchester City, which beat their opponent 6:0 in the first game.

Defeat Tottenham and advance to the final.

This brought Arsenal's morale to a higher level.

Especially in the absence of any defeat this season, the mentality of the Arsenal players is also extremely optimistic and confident.

Even Dembele, who just joined on loan, is in this state.

For Dembele, his months in London have been one of rapid integration into the team and the city.

Arsenal fans are very friendly to him, even if the team is on loan, they also support Dembele very much.

This made Dembele's impression of the Arsenal fan base and even the entire team a lot higher.

Even, sometimes, Dembele starts to think that it doesn't matter whether he returns to Barcelona or not.

Of course, this is just a momentary thought, but in this continuous influence, perhaps Dembele may really recognize Arsenal more, but it is not necessarily true.

Reaching the English League Cup final, Arsenal's momentum is like a rainbow.

Once they win the second championship of the season, their state and self-confidence will be improved to a higher level.

This is very bad news for any team that has Arsenal as its opponent.

Of course, even without these, these teams are very sad.

Just like Juventus today!
