Chapter 1152 Young to Young

Southampton did basically not crash.

After Ji Ya led the team to the track, they have always been the most stable team in Europe, and the more important the game, the better their performance. Instead, they lost points in some seemingly ordinary games. This is probably why they used to I have won the Champions League in seven years, but there are only four reasons in the league...

Their first league title came when they won three consecutive Europa League titles.

This victory is of course a good thing for Southampton, because on the first day of the new year, they will welcome Arsenal at home. It is clear that this is not a good thing for Arsenal.

After the 11th round, they are still struggling in the mid-range. Now they are ranked tenth, with only [-] points, but Chelsea are more unlucky than them. With the defect of relatively weak ability, Chelsea's ranking has also begun to decline at the speed of light. Now their points are one point less than Arsenal, only ranking No.[-].

So facing Southampton, who is obviously not bad, this is also a big test for Arsenal.

After this period of adjustment and reflection, Arteta began to give up the three-back tactic he was going to use at the beginning, and returned to four-back. The lineup between May Day, the goalkeeper Gulac, the two central defenders are David Luiz and Holding, the full-back Bellerin is paired with Cedric, Xhaka and Thomas as a double midfielder, and the attacking midfielder is a young teenager Smith Rowe, the two wingers are the young Saka and Pepe, and Lacazette is alone.

Compared with before, Saka has basically secured his position as the main left winger. The four backs allow him to have enough protection behind him, so that he can better display his breakthrough ability and offensive ability. Luo has recently become a Arsenal's main force, this teenager's skills and speed are quite good.

Obviously, Arteta has done a pretty good job in reusing young people.

"It is also a matter of courage to be able to boldly give young players a chance."

Ji Ya sighed. For him, the players' condition has almost recovered in this game. It is not difficult to win, let alone his home court.

Compared with the previous round, Southampton's defense in this game has become the main defense. Araujo and Chilwell have returned to the main lineup, and the midfielders are Bellingham and Soucek The starting lineup, partnering with De Bruyne, striker Du Yue with Vinicius and Valverde, is basically most of the main lineup.

Of course, to deal with an opponent like Arsenal, it is routine to send most of the main players.

After all, for Southampton, although they have a lot of games to come, the games against the other six strong teams in the league are still the most important.

Arsenal's young players have been constantly attacking since the beginning of the game. After all, for them, they can fully show the momentum of the newborn calf.

So at the beginning of the game, amidst the shouts of the Southampton fans, Arsenal unexpectedly launched a very threatening attack.

De Bruyne passed the ball to Bellingham. After receiving the ball, Bellingham passed the ball forward to Valverde, but Thomas intercepted the ball halfway!

After stealing the ball, Thomas passed the ball to Xhaka, Xhaka received the ball and turned around, a beautiful transfer of the ball, and distributed it to Saka, who advanced from the wing, and Saka dribbled the ball past the midfield. When they thought he would continue to dribble the ball by himself, he lifted his foot and stuffed the ball straight into the frontcourt!

Lacazette, who advanced in time, threw off the two central defenders of Southampton during the run, forming a single-handedly!

The exclamation of the Southampton fans sounded in the stands, but Saka's through ball was still a little bit stronger. Martin struck out in time, and before Lacazette could completely control the ball, he flew to the ground and sent the ball to the ground. The ball fluttered in my arms!

"Dr Martin's wonderful saves made Arsenal's opening raids ineffective! I have to say that Southampton's signings are always so discerning. Everyone thinks that Southampton is mainly looking for a substitute goalkeeper. As a result, Martin has become the main force of Southampton this season! Although Gulac's performance at Arsenal is also very good, but seeing Martin's performance, Arsenal should also regret it? They could have used such an excellent goalkeeper by themselves..."

Amidst the commentator's sighs, Martin threw the ball out, and Southampton started to attack!

The Arsenal players began to run back like a tide. The ball came to Cancelo's feet. Shifting the ball to the left in a wide range, Vinicius stopped the ball, saw that Du Yue was running forward and drew the attention of the opponent, he kicked decisively and shot vigorously!

Gulac flew to save the ball, and narrowly held the ball out of the far corner with one hand, a corner kick.

De Bruyne ran towards the corner, both Southampton centre-halfs came up and immediately attracted most of the attention.

De Bruyne observed the situation in the penalty area. Arsenal's defense was still quite tight. However, when they were all focused on the penalty area, they somewhat ignored the protection at the front of the penalty area...

In that position, Bellingham was really alone.

De Bruyne started to run, and when he approached the ball with a run-up, the players in the Southampton penalty area ran forward one after another, pressing Arsenal's defensive players into the penalty area.

However, De Bruyne's corner kick flew directly to the front of the penalty area!

Facing the falling ball, Bellingham swung his right foot.

At this time, it was too late for Arsenal's defenders to jump over to defend again. They could only pray that Bellingham's shot would not be too beautiful...

After all, if you want to master such things as volley shooting, it is not only a matter of technical skills, but also a certain bonus of luck...

Obviously, Bellingham not only has good skills, but his luck is also quite good.

He kicked the bottom of the ball hard, and then quickly exerted force, which made the ball quickly change direction and fly into the penalty area, then passed over the heads of all the players, and plunged into the dead corner of the goal!

Although Gulacci made a save, he was still a step too slow. The ball flew past his hand, and then plunged into the dead corner of the goal!

One to zero, just 2 minutes into the game, Southampton scored the first goal!
