Chapter 110: The flattened beer bottle

"Another goal!"

"Cazorla's guided long pass, Walcott's long-distance run! Sanchez finished it! Arsenal extended their lead!"

"They have been eliminated in the Champions League round of 16 for five consecutive years! They have faced teams like Barcelona and Bayern, which are cosmic-level, just missing by a breath! Eliminated three times due to fewer away goals! Eliminated twice on aggregate 3-4!"

"Tonight in North London, for all Gunners fans, it's starry and romantic!"

"Duan Xuan and He Wei have been commentating on matches for many years."

"They gradually felt that Lewokusen could not defeat this Arsenal."

"Both of them couldn't help feeling a bit of regret for Li Kang."

"It's fine; he's still young, being able to lead the team into the Champions League round of 16 is already outstanding."

"The livestream."

"-【Arsenal is awesome! This year's signings are really good.】"

"-【No need to play Wilshere; using Cazorla as a single core is enough to deal with Lewokusen!】"

"-【Lewokusen's ceiling is just the Champions League round of 16; without Li Mingdeng, they might be eliminated in the group stage!】"

"-【Who can win every game? Losing is inevitable! Li Kang is 17 this year; his future is bright.】"

"-【What are you talking about? There's still time in the match! There's also the second leg! Who said Lewokusen is out!】"

"Emirates Stadium"

"Lai Nuo picked up the water bottle by the goalpost and took a few sips."

"He really wanted to shout a few words at Jonathan Tah and Papadopoulos."

"After hesitating, he helplessly shook his head."

"There's nothing to shout about; Lewokusen's defense is just at this level."

"Brandt lowered his head, guiltily walking back to midfield, thinking he had wasted the chance to equalize."

"Son Heung-min patted his shoulder and said a few words... his voice was instantly drowned out by the roar of tens of thousands of fans at Emirates Stadium."

"At the sidelines"

"No time to stand there stunned"

"Lewokusen's coaching staff was engaged in a heated discussion"

"Dino anxiously gripped a piece of paper and hurriedly said, 'Boss! The thermal imaging report is out!'"

"In 2015, how intense had the Premier League's top clubs become?"

"Most home grounds were equipped with Prozone's thermal imaging devices"

"The imaging effect is truly the 'God's perspective' event flow"

"Tuopu Laotou took the report, his hands still trembling, his expression grave: 'Damn it, I can't understand this thing!'"

"On the other side"

"Arsenal's assistant coach Boerde ended the discussion, after seeking permission from Wenger, then rushed to the sidelines, constantly making tactical gestures at Cazorla"

"He nodded, then immediately passed the gestures to the teammates in midfield and defense"

"In the development of modern football"

"The try-hards found that in actual play, it's hard to convey tactical needs via sound in a short time; amid the cheers of tens of thousands of fans, it's basically impossible to express accurately"

"The tactical gestures of several factions have become increasingly rich, like the hand seals in Naruto!"

"Guardiola deeply felt this, saying in an interview: 'During my youth team days, I would say a lot in matches because there were few spectators, and external noise couldn't drown out the players' verbal communication.'"

"'Gradually I discovered that excessive verbal communication in intense matches affects breathing rhythm.'"

"'After entering the first team, there were still many foreign teammates with whom verbal communication was difficult, so I tried to develop more gestures for communication, including later when I moved to Serie A...'"

"Even more astonishing is a certain world-class coach who has trained multiple foreign national teams, where he, the players, and even the team managers speak different languages; even during his tenure in the Premier League, he couldn't speak English, yet this didn't hinder his pursuit of more trophies."

"The five major leagues are not like the Chinese Super League's slow pace; one can say a lot."

"Even on the amateur pitch, at most one shouts a few phrases like 'hey hey hey,' 'this this this,' 'behind,' 'pass the ball to the leader'!"

"By the time you finish saying a long string of words, the situation has already changed instantly."

"Li Kang placed the ball back at midfield."

"He returned to his position."

"In the God's perspective, countless red arrow lines faded away one by one."

"All event flows have been reviewed."

"He turned his head and made a few gestures to the teammates behind him."

"Kramer and Bender understood each other tacitly."

"The match continued."

"Giroud kicked off and passed the ball back to Li Kang."

"Li Kang touched the ball with one foot! He slipped a pass to Brandt on the right."

"Sanchez and Cazorla closed in on him simultaneously!"

"Boerre si's support was not yet in place."

"The developing Brandt was completely dominated by the muscular Sanchez!"

"Cazorla stretched his foot and easily completed the tackle."

"\"Sanchez plays very smart; he never directly confronts Li Kang, always pressing Brandt! \""

"\"Arsenal's gorgeous attack is back! \""

"\"Lewokusen is dangerous! \""

"Cazorla once again initiated a mercury-like fluid attack!"

"All Arsenal midfield and forward players, like a school of fish, frenziedly corroded this piece of rotten meat that is Lewokusen!"

The football's trajectory was like intersecting, overlapping steel wires.

Strangling Lewokusen's back line.

Li Kang quickly retreated to the thirty-meter zone of his own half.

Kramer and Bendel no longer insisted on their own marking targets, but moved toward Li Kang's rear!

A few seconds later.

Arsenal's blade stalled.

Li Kang blocked Cazorla!

The latter couldn't find a vertical passing option in an instant!

Sanchez and Bellerin were pulling on Lewokusen's defensive line.

The two true linking points—Walcott and Ramsey—were cut off by Kramer and Bendel.

Are you crazy?

We attack in depth!

You guys don't want width in defense either?

Smack!

Cazorla didn't entangle with Li Kang.

He tapped his heel.

The ball rolled to the feet of the advancing Cocran.

"Oh no, Arsenal slowed down!"

"We need to reorganize the attack!"

On the sidelines,

Tuopu Laotou's eyes lit up, he snatched the thermal image from Dino's hand.

Internally excited: Arsenal's attacking style in this match differed from before; they reduced the weight of left-to-right transition... strengthened depth attack! Lewokusen's response is not difficult...

"Damn! Li is a genius, just as I thought!"

Dino looked bewildered: "Boss, what are you saying?"

Tuopu Laotou thought and explained simply: "If a beer can is squeezed flat, hitting my head would hurt! Li's idea is to let me change to a sharp mohawk hairstyle! Pop the beer can open!"

Dino suddenly realized, asking: "If Arsenal returns to its previous attacking style... we're not afraid! Just follow the pre-arranged defensive assignment! But if he opens up width attack?"

If Arsenal returns to its previous attacking style, Lewokusen has nothing to fear; Mourinho and other Premier League big-name coaches gave a textbook defensive framework.

Tuopu Laotou messed up his afro, laughing: "Opening width? Then Li has ample adjustment time, can devour their ball-output core! He's simply a genius! I also think that!"

While speaking.

Lewokusen's head coach gently touched the water bottle, murmuring: "The defensive problem is solved, next the attack..."

On the other side.

Wenger's hand fumbled for a while, couldn't find the upper pocket.

The smile was somewhat bitter.

"Every generation of La Masia's number 4 position is always that smart."

"We don't have time to make more complex tactical adjustments, following the previous attacking style... Walcott and Giroud still lack the single-player ability to crush their defense... they will focus more on Sanchez and Cazorla..."

"Assistant coach Boerde said: \"Boss! We're leading by two goals! Just need to defend well... \"

"We still have Wilshere! He will let our attack..."

Wenger's face full of worry, saying: "His injury healed only a few days ago, too risky."

Madrid.

"Modric heavily tapped the table."

His eyes shone with vigor.

「And it's completely different from what I thought! But it temporarily solves the defensive problem! 」

「Let me see your counterattack! 」
