Rennes coach Stefan was actually very embarrassed.

In today's second round of the game, he dragged all the main players over and started them all.

Goalkeeper: Gobik.

Defenders: Messer, Doumbia, Zephaneh, Namath;

Midfielder: Green, Ben Alda, Bruno, Andre, Sarr;

Forward: Niang.

And I spent a week preparing many tactics to deal with Luo Wu. Today at the Emirates Stadium is for a last-ditch battle.

But Luo Wu didn't start the game at all, and is now sitting on the bench leisurely.

Look down on them.

Stefan regarded this game as a life and death battle, but Arsenal was not nervous at all and had no intention of a life and death battle at all. What kind of life and death battle is a 4:1 lead?

Unless the score of this game becomes 0:3 first.

But is this possible?

This is Arsenal's home ground.

Besides, once the score really becomes dangerous, Emery will definitely send Luo Wu to play as soon as possible and will never let the team go to the edge of the cliff.

In fact, the betting companies are not optimistic about Rennes at all. According to the handicap offered by major betting companies, although Luo Wu did not start the game, they are still optimistic about Arsenal allowing Rennes to score two goals at home.

It can be said that there is no suspense at all.

No matter how poorly Arsenal plays, they will never be eliminated at home.

Arsenal fans were very excited and sang Luo Wu's songs before the game started. Even though Luo Wu did not play in the game, he is still the fans' favorite.

After the whistle sounded, Arsenal put on a defensive counterattack posture.

This is not Arsenal at all. In the past, Arsenal were famous for their smooth offensive progress, but now they actually put on a defensive posture.

Because they don't need to compete with their opponents on goals at all, as long as their opponent Rennes is anxious.

Emery just wanted to win the game in the cheapest way.

Of course, the Rennes team was not polite either. They were rushing to meet the ball. After the game started, they turned around and suppressed Arsenal within half-time.

Soon, the Rennes team won the first chance to hit the goal. Under the interference of Holding, forward Niang tried a long shot from outside the penalty area.

The ball missed by a hair, almost rolling into the right side of the goal.

However, the Rennes team's shot did not attract the attention of the Arsenal players. In the subsequent games, they still played very relaxedly. Although they gave control of the midfield to the Rennes team, the defense in the backcourt was still gradually

Entered into a state.

It seems like everything is going smoothly.

After all, the Rennes team has no superstars or explosive figures who can break through. They can only find holes in Arsenal's defense through teamwork.

Their second shot was outrageous. It was a shot from Niang. This time he held Holding in the penalty area and headed the ball to the upper left corner of the goal. As a result, the goal was

Run for the corner flag.

The Arsenal fans in the stands let out deafening jeers.

Ever since Arsenal's performance became the best in Europe, Arsenal fans have become increasingly frustrated.

I look down on the Rennes team.

After that, Arsenal finally ushered in its first counterattack. After Iwobi on the left got the ball, he and Haaland hit the wall and hit the bottom line. Then Iwobi swept the ball back to the center in an inverted triangle.

, Xhaka followed up and shot with a kick.

But the quality of the shot was not very good, and the ball also missed the goal.

The Leian team resolutely played a fast break. After the midfielder Andre got the ball, he passed it directly to the front midfielder Ben Arfa.

Ben Arfa turned his back to Mustafi and knocked the ball to Niang with his heel. Niang once again shot with his right foot from the top of the penalty area.

This time he finally hit the ball with his toe, and the ball went straight to the lower right corner of the goal. However, Arsenal's third goalkeeper Martinez made a very accurate judgment and beat the ball out of the baseline with a side dive.

Rennes only won a chance to attack from a corner kick.

"Ben Arfa's back-heeled pass just now was very beautiful. He has a very strong technical foundation. He was still a figure back then. It's a pity that at the peak of his debut, he became more and more confused as he played. In the end, he could only be reduced to a ball like Rennes.

Among the team, I remember Arsenal was still interested in Ben Arfa, but in the end they just took away Nasri."

"Of the four guys known as the Four Little Swans in France, only Benzema made it out in the end."

Kaladze was explaining the history of Ben Arfa, but at this time, Ben Arfa suddenly pocketed the ball near the corner flag.

Without waiting for the Arsenal players to make defensive arrangements, goalkeeper Martinez did not stand in a good position. As a result, the ball spun strongly and went directly into the near corner as everyone was stunned.

"goooooooooooal!"

"oh!"

"oh!"

"Oh, haha, God! The ball actually went directly in. What on earth was Martinez doing? Didn't he watch Alfa kick off? Even all the Arsenal players didn't notice! It was too sudden."

“Perfect work of art.”

"Haha, it's really funny. This is the consequences of underestimating your opponent. Ben Arfa did indeed make two mistakes, scoring directly from the corner kick. The score of this game became 1:0, and the total score became 2:4.

It looks like Rennes really has a chance."

“If the Chinese can do it, Alpha can do it too!”

No one dares to believe it.

Ben Arfa scored in such a stunning way.

Wodefake!

Luo Wu, who was sitting on the bench, rubbed his eyes. He really couldn't believe that the ball could still be kicked in.

Martinez was too good, and he scored directly from a corner kick.

This Ben Alpha is really good...

Luo Wu also knew the character of Ben Arfa, and he had heard of the Four Little Swans when watching football before.

Ben Arfa failed to start in the first round, and now he is back in the second round. Before the game, Emery specifically mentioned the threat of Ben Arfa and asked everyone to guard against him.

I guess everyone didn't take it to heart at the time, but now they are suffering in the competition.

The Emirates Stadium fell silent for an instant, and the cheers of hundreds of Rennes fans soon echoed throughout the venue.

This face is so painful from being beaten.

I thought I would just beat the opponent at home, but ended up letting the opponent score first.

The total score was 4:2, but there wasn’t much pressure, it was just too ugly.

Emery stood angrily on the edge of the court, obviously very dissatisfied with the goal conceded. He thought to himself that the third goalkeeper is the third goalkeeper, and he actually conceded such a shameful goal.

But now the main goalkeeper has not come back, and his comeback is far away, so he can only make do with the third goalkeeper. During the winter break, he considered buying another goalkeeper, but he thought, no matter how good the goalkeeper is, what's the use?

, the defense also has to keep up. Arsenal is strong in offense, not defense. Think about it and forget it in the end...

The Rennes players did not celebrate. Ben Arfa who scored the goal was the first to run back to the midfield. The other teammates originally wanted to celebrate, but when they saw that there was no happy expression on Ben Arfa's face, they followed him back.

Because they knew that this goal would not bring them promotion, they needed at least two more goals.

Emery was depressed, but he still stood still. It was normal to concede the goal at the beginning, and there was still a lot of time.

This is all habitual thinking...

The same goes for Luo Wu, who continued to sit next to the chair in a daze.

The Arsenal players on the field didn't pay much attention, but then they once again experienced the violent attack of Rennes.

They once again suppressed Arsenal inside the half, and then completed a long shot from outside the penalty area. The ball hit Holding's left leg and went out of the baseline, winning another corner kick.

Martinez didn't dare to be careless this time. When Ben Arfa stood at the corner flag, his eyes never left Ben Arfa and he firmly guarded the front point.

Ben Arfa took a tactical corner kick, and then his teammates drew the ball into Arsenal's small penalty area. As a result, the ball was cleared by Kolasinac.

Xhaka got the ball outside the penalty area and immediately poked it to Harland. Unfortunately, Harland was hugged from behind by his opponent and failed to handle the ball well. Fortunately, the referee blew the whistle with his sharp eyes.

Although the opponent committed a foul, Arsenal failed to make a fast break.

Rennes' tactical goal was achieved, and Arsenal then switched to a positional battle, hitting the wall twice and reaching the Rennes half.

Without Luo Wu's control and coordination in the frontcourt, Arsenal failed to show any creativity. In the end, Van de Beek lobbed the ball into the penalty area to find Haaland, and the ball disappeared.

Rennes midfielder Sarr got the ball and immediately sent an overhead long pass. Ben Alfal jumped in the air and unloaded the ball steadily like an eagle, without even looking at the goal.

, and immediately hit a curve ball.

The ball went straight to the back post of Arsenal's penalty area. Forward Niang shook off Holding and dived towards the top!

Martinez didn't think much about it, he just pounced down with his hands extended, but the ball was beyond his expectation, and the ball went higher than the lintel.

If the Rennes team has a super shooter, the score may be much ahead now.
