Chapter 170: Approaching the FA Cup Final

Arsenal's long pass cooperation played a very good effect, directly penetrating the Wolves' goal.

This also caused the Wolves, who were already at a disadvantage, to fall again in overall situation.

Moutinho looked extremely anxious. He wanted to bring some changes to the team, but he could not find a breakthrough point.

No matter from which angle to advance, Arsenal can defend steadily, which is the most troublesome thing.

The fundamental advancement of the Wolves can almost rely on the right forward, that is, Doherty.

But the right side happens to be the area defended by Lucky. If Doherty is temporarily allowed to play on the left, the effect may be even worse.

So, the current Wolves are in this annoying dead loop.

Fundamentally speaking, their players' abilities cannot penetrate Arsenal's defense, not to mention that their own teamwork is much worse than Arsenal.

For this reason, for the Wolves in this game, they have few opportunities to fight for.

"The first half is not over yet, and Wolves have already begun to show signs of fatigue. Although we are very clear about Arsenal's control over the game, Wolves have also performed very well this season. However, when they faced Arsenal's full main force, many problems of Wolves were exposed!"

"Under the surface of seemingly aggressive offense, they lack flexibility in offense, which also allows Arsenal to easily respond to their offense, and Arsenal's sharp counterattack is also fatal to Wolves!"

Andy Gray sighed slightly.

This season's Arsenal really gives people a feeling of killing gods and killing Buddhas.

The whole team plays too steadily and too team-oriented.

Since the beginning of the season, they have almost never made mistakes. In the few threatening games, they can also maintain a draw or even a comeback victory.

They can play in both favorable and unfavorable situations!

This kind of Arsenal is almost a top-level team in the current Europe.

Andy Gray really can't find a suitable team to defeat such an Arsenal.

Perhaps those teams that can be ranked in history can have a chance with Arsenal.

But at least, there is no Wolves here.

After Arsenal scored a goal, the overall situation began to develop in a stable direction.

They were not in a hurry to expand the score again.

Instead, they focused on controlling the rhythm of the midfield.

This also made the Wolves' midfield and backcourt exhausted. They hurriedly restricted Arsenal's passing and wanted to steal and intercept at the same time, but Arsenal would hardly give them such opportunities between passing.

Arsenal's stable midfield also made the Wolves more anxious.

And time was slowly passing.

Unknowingly, 45 minutes had passed.

At the end of the first half, when the whistle sounded, the Wolves players suddenly sighed.

'Finally the first half is over! '

The entire first half was a disaster for them.

They had no idea how to play football. Arsenal's high-pressure pressing and passing made them dizzy.

In the process of returning to the locker room, the Wolves players looked confused. Obviously, they were a little hit by this game.

Although it was only the first half, they had almost no offensive opportunities.

This dealt a huge blow to the Wolves, who mainly focused on offense, on the mental level.

"This game had a great impact on the Wolves. Their offense could not be effective, and Doherty on the wing was also restricted by Kai."

Andy Gray said.

Richard: "Doherty is an excellent winger. He often needs to play a breakthrough and advancement role in the Wolves, but in this game, he was restricted by Kai on the right wing. We need to admit that Doherty is an excellent player, but we also need to lament that Doherty's performance against Kai in this game was not particularly outstanding."

"Of course, we also hope that Doherty can gain some more experience so that he and the Wolves can play better games in future games."

Although it was only the first half, based on the content of the game, the two commentators almost determined that Arsenal would win the game.

The main reason was that this game was simply a crushing situation.

Although there was only one goal, this was because Arsenal could stabilize the midfield and save strength to deal with the next game.

They have reason to believe that if Arsenal is willing to attack and take action, the number of goals will be far more than one goal.

The away Wolves fans at the scene were also somewhat sad.

They did not expect Wolves to beat Arsenal. After all, they are a newly promoted team and their goal this season is to stay in the league.

But no matter what, this game should also play some of their own content.

At the very least, they should create some trouble for Arsenal.

But none of these.

It was completely a one-sided crush!

In the 31st round of the league, Wolves led Arsenal by two goals. At that time, Wolves fans thought their spring had arrived.

Perhaps after one or two seasons of precipitation and strengthening the lineup, they can also replicate the miracle of Sterling City.

But when Arsenal played all the main players and played such 45 minutes, their good wishes were also shattered.

The gap is too big!

The two sides made some adjustments during the halftime break.

In the second half, Wolves made some major changes.

First, the three central defenders became four defenders, which was to deal with Arsenal's counterattack.

Second, the entire position also became 4-3-3, a more stable position, so as to create a stable defense and look for opportunities.

The idea is good, but their performance did not meet the expected standards.

At the beginning of the game, Arsenal once again demonstrated its sharp counterattack ability.

Even if the Wolves changed to four defenders, they still could not stop Arsenal's attack.

In the 56th minute, Arsenal relied on the cooperation of Mane and Giroud, and Giroud scored again with a header.

This made the Wolves fall behind again, and almost lost the possibility of winning.

This goal made the morale of the Wolves even more depressed.

To put it bluntly, it is not just a tactical gap, but also a gap between the players.

On the two sides, Aubameyang, who is in good shape, and Mane, who is ready to fight, can't defend any of the sides.

There is also Giroud staring at the middle, and Wilshere and Lukay at the far end are also threats.

It can be said that the Wolves were almost surrounded by Arsenal in the penalty area, unable to move, and passively beaten.

When the game time entered the 65th minute, Arsenal made substitutions early.

Mane went off and Dembele came on.

Lucky went off and Odegaard came on.

Obviously Arsenal thought that they had locked the victory, so they replaced the main players to deal with the next game.

Lucky went off and Dembele came on.

Arsenal's offensive began to move towards the trident in the frontcourt, and Dembele, Giroud and Aubameyang became the spearheads of Arsenal's offense.

Giroud and Aubameyang often made cross-runs and took the initiative to organize the offensive in the frontcourt.

With the performance of the trident, Arsenal's offensive became more fierce.

The Wolves were already dizzy from being kicked, and now facing this more fierce attack, they are even more difficult to resist.

In the 70th minute, just 5 minutes after the substitution, Arsenal created a gap for Dembele through the transfer and pulling in the frontcourt.

Dembele did not disappoint his teammates' expectations. He went straight in from the gap and successfully swept the ball horizontally. Giroud made a forward shovel shot and completed a hat trick in this game.

"Giroud!

Hat trick!

We must admit that we underestimated this striker from France!"

"He can always score goals, especially as the arrow player of Arsenal, his role is not only a fulcrum, but also the terminator of the offense!"

"This goal is a characteristic performance of Giroud. With his sharp forward running position, he can always find this kind of forward shooting opportunity!"

"And the Wolves defenders have almost no effect on his restrictions!"

"70 minutes, 3 goals ahead, I think the suspense of the game is gone!"

"Arsenal will most likely come to Wembley Stadium again, and they will become the first team to enter the FA Cup final!"

Just like Andy Gray's words.

This goal completely killed the suspense of the game. Wolves wanted to save face and score a goal, but Arsenal just didn't give it to them.

Until the end of the game, the score was still Arsenal 3:0 Wolves.

Arsenal easily won the game and entered the FA Cup final.

They also became extremely close to their third championship trophy.
