The passes came sharp and early, the runs without the ball timed to the second. Basel could not settle. Every time they thought they had a shape, it shifted under them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gap in intensity showed. In the Premier League, this pace is routine. For Basel, it was a strain they could not sustain for long, especially through the middle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Fei and Gonzalez carried their weight even as youngsters in the Basel team. They had quality, which was clear. But quality has levels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Both midfielders were already breathing hard, forced into constant tracking, constant decisions. Yet nothing stuck. Every option they chose was read, matched, and shut down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basel began to lose their shape. Lines stretched. Distances opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fei, I'll be up front. Look for me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez did not slow when he said it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Fei hesitated. \"We've only tried that in training. This is a real match.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then give me something better,\" Gonzalez shot back. \"Trust me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no time to argue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arsenal came again, wave after wave. Basel could only react. Even when Ouyang Fei dropped deeper to help, it barely held.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They needed one moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just on—.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai struck from a distance. The ball ripped through the air, skimming past Ouyang Fei's head toward the goal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He ducked instinctively, then snapped his head around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thomas! That's unreal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomáš Vaclík got down strong and pushed it away again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go! Go!\" he shouted, clapping hard. \"Show them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ball found Ouyang Fei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Pressure arrived with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Santi Cazorla closed fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei nudged left to create space. Cazorla stayed tight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, quick and clean, Fei dragged the ball inward and slipped it through his legs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cazorla froze for half a second. That was enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei lifted his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez was already gone, sprinting into space without looking back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei opened his body and struck through the ball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It climbed high, then began to bend. A difficult, curling long pass dropping behind the line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai read it late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes snapped wide, body already turning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't let him shoot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He sprinted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too late.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kieran Gibbs tracked the flight, caught between stepping forward or dropping. He chose to recover, turning to run with Gonzalez.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a moment, he had him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then Gonzalez found another gear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gibbs lost half a step. That was all it took.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez reached the drop first. One touch to kill the ball, another to shift it away from pressure. Clean, balanced, efficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He broke through.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"He's past him!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The move had worked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No hesitation now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez struck for the near post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shot flew low and hard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a second, the Emirates Stadium went quiet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Off the post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sound echoed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez dropped to his knees, hands on his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So close.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basel's fans groaned, then lifted again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That's it!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We can hurt them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There's still a chance!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Belief returned, thin but real.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basel's attack had real bite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Fei's long pass had vision and weight. Gonzalez's control under pressure was clean, his finish decisive. The sequence carried a threat from start to end.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Arsenal, that was the warning. Give them space once, and they could punish it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai's eyes followed Ouyang Fei as the play reset.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Half a season ago, Fei had been predictable, head down, dribbling into traffic. Now there was range in his game. That pass earlier, from what he saw, wasn't hopeful, but premeditated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Just a bit more,\" Fei muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez let out a breath. \"We had them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their frustration did not last. Both were smiling again within seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm feeling it today.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Same here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They shared a quick look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then both of them stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai walked past.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ouyang Fei swallowed. \"Ready?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez gave a short nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their eyes stayed on him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai slowed, then called over Santi Cazorla.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's score,\" he said. \"Enough control. We finish it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Play resumed. Arsenal went long from the goal kick, but Basel pressed high and forced the turnover. A corner followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basel committed bodies forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thirty minutes in, they were still sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Players clustered near the edge of the box, then spread just before the delivery. It was a coordinated set piece. The idea was simple. Break the defensive structure through constant movement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the taker, Ouyang Fei raised his arm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ball curled toward the far post.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Movement exploded inside the box. Red shirts tracking, blue shirts cutting across them. Markers lost, lanes opening for a split second.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei leaned forward, eyes locked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gonzalez adjusted his run, ready to attack the drop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then someone else arrived first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai had already left the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rose early, but more importantly, he rose higher. His timing cut through the chaos, his leap clearing everybody around him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Gonzalez could even plant to jump, the duel was over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai met the ball clean and drove it out of the box with force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It dropped to Santi Cazorla outside the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One touch to settle. Turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Le Kai had already landed and was moving.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From set-piece defense to open-field attack in seconds, Arsenal surged forward as one line, the transition sharp and direct, carrying the game straight back toward Basel's goal.\u003C\u002Fp>",883,"2026-06-09T07:00:21.891Z",1,"novelbin.me","cc6dc261ef2341c188d0f0068a2d5ccb92f2a125c3154d7feb650fc8c412f2b8","foresight-chapter-375","foresight-chapter-373",405,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fforesight-cover.jpg"]
