Chapter 414: 4 consecutive victories
Group D: Juventus, Manchester City, Sevilla, Monchengladbach
This should be regarded as the death group of this season. The four teams all come from the five major leagues, but the strength is actually quite clear. There is a death group atmosphere, but it is not strong.
Group E: Barcelona, Leverkusen, Rome, Borisov
Barcelona is a good sign as always, with Leverkusen and Roma competing for second place in the group.
Group F: Bayern Munich, Chelsea, Olympiacos, Dynamo Zagreb
This team depends on the competition between the Bundesliga hegemon and Chelsea.
Group G: Arsenal, Porto, Dynamo Kyiv, Maccabi Tel Aviv
As the defending champions, Arsenal also got a good sign. Although Porto and Dynamo Kyiv are not weak, Arsenal's advantage is still obvious.
Group H: Zenit, Valencia, Lyon, Ghent
This is a real death group, but this group has not paid much attention. Strictly speaking, there is no real giant. Although Lyon was once the overlord of Ligue 1, now Lyon has become a Ligue 1 black shop.
To be honest, the restructuring of the Champions League team draw is not known as good or bad at the moment. After all, it is the first time this season to make changes, so it takes time to study.
After the draw, the teams did not stay in Monaco for a long time. After all, when the league is going on, players need to return to the team as soon as possible. As for the others, it doesn't matter if they stay.
The first group match of Arsenal's Champions League was in mid-September, so there is still half a month before the start, so it's not anxious.
What Arsenal needs to do now is to turn their attention back to the league. On the second day after the draw is over, Arsenal will be a guest at James Park to challenge Newcastle United.
But Li Shou, Wenger and Arteta got very bad news when they came back. The two main central defenders Koscielny and Mertesacker were injured one after another within a day. Although the injuries were not serious, The next day of the game will definitely not be able to participate.
Chambers said he was very unhappy, although Chambers is eager to usher in the first start of the season, but the starter he thinks is definitely not in the position of central defender.
Chambers is actually not suitable to play as a central defender. This has been proved last season. When he played as a central defender, Chambers made mistakes, but even if he returned to the wide side, Chambers would not show anything even if his performance was not bright. Mistakes.
Arsenal's current defensive line is also in line with Chambers in all aspects, so Chambers's lateral movement in the middle is also Wenger's helpless choice.
Seeing this situation, Li Shou was once again depressed. If Van Dijk was bought before, then Arsenal would not have to worry so much. Let alone whether Van Dijk can really adapt to the Premier League, at least the centre-back will have sufficient personnel.
It's a pity that all this is impossible. Van Dijk has gone to Southampton. Although this round of the game still has not ushered in the starter, the fact that he already belongs to Southampton cannot be changed.
However, the house fell in the rain. The next day, Giroud and Welbeck caught a cold again. Wenger jumped off his feet when he learned of this situation, and even Wenger seriously doubted whether the two goods went out together last night.
In desperation, Wenger could only make adjustments to the starting lineup. Griezmann was at the forefront. Walcott started and Sanchez formed two sides. The three behind him remained unchanged. Coquelin, Ramse Cazorla, Defensive line Monreal, Chambers, Paulista and Bellerin.
As for the goalkeeper, naturally there can be no change. Li Shou is the guarantee of Arsenal's victory. Arsenal can now lack any other players, except Li Shou.
Thanks to the terrible physical strength of Li Shou, Li Shou has never been injured since he started his career as a professional player in Monaco.
However, the position of goalkeeper is actually the most difficult position to get injured, unless luck is particularly bad, otherwise it is the kind of easily injured physique.
If a player is talented, it is definitely the saddest thing to get injured physically. In the position of goalkeeper, there have been two sadders in European football in the past decade.
One is German Mesozoic goalkeeper Adler, who used to overpower Neuer's existence, and the other is Spanish goalkeeper Asenjo. If it weren't for Asenjo's injury, there would never be the current De Gea.
Although the player's injury disrupted Arsenal's pre-war layout, Arsenal immediately took the initiative after the start of the real game. Arsenal's lineup had to be rotated, but there was no problem with the tacit understanding of the players.
As for Newcastle United, the strength of this season has also been strengthened. Newcastle United has invested more than 40 million in this summer transfer period.
However, from the game scene, Newcastle United did not seem to have changed because of this investment. Arsenal firmly took the initiative and completed the first shot in less than three minutes.
Arsenal made a full three-foot shot in the first ten minutes, although none of these three-foot shots really threatened Newcastle United’s goal, and Newcastle United’s first shot came in the 14th minute.
Just transferred from Anderlecht this season, the talented center Mitrovic, the 20-year-old center has been the main force of the Belgian giants for two seasons, and the two seasons combined scored 44. Goals.
It is said that Li Shou had played against this talented center before. In the fourth match of the Champions League last season, Mitrovic had come off the bench, but the two teams had already decided the victory and defeat, and Mitrovic had no chance to perform. .
Although there is a chance for performance now, UU reading www.uukanshu.com may want to break Li Shou's goal is too difficult, Mitlovic's powerful shot was directly hit in Li Shou's arms.
However, no one would have thought that Mitrovic’s first shot was also his last shot in this game. Just three minutes after Mitrovic’s shot, the ball came to his feet again. , But was shoveled by Coquilin, and when the ball was tackled by Coquilin, Mitrovic, who was so embarrassed, stepped on Coquilin who was still on the ground.
It was also bad luck for Mitrovic, the referee Marina was behind Mitrovic, and then the referee immediately rushed to the Serbian teenager to draw out a yellow card.
genius? At this moment Mitrovic was just a fool in everyone's eyes. Newcastle United was not as strong as Arsenal. His kick almost directly announced the final result of the game.
But when the referee blew the whistle of the game, the score was finally fixed at 2:0, Griezmann opened the scoring, and Newcastle United defender Kolocchini took an own goal.
Arsenal still had poor luck in this game, almost completely suppressing Newcastle United, but in the end there was only one real goal, but regardless of luck or bad, Arsenal won the game.
