Paris vs Arsenal,Enrique lined up the 433 formation, as Dembele had just returned from injury and wore a hat-trick on the bench, Balcola suddenly played a cameo role as a central striker, Doue and Kvaratskhelia were separated on either side, Joao Neves, Vitinha, Fabian formed a three-midfielder, Achraf, Marquinhos, Pacho, Mendes formed a back four, Donnarumma was in goal, and the starting value was 610 million euros;Arteta lined up in a 433 formation, Merino played a cameo role as a central striker, Martinez and Saka flanked him, Rice, Thomas, and Odegaard formed a three-midfield midfield, Skelly, Kiwior, Saliba, and Timber formed a back four, and Raya was on goal, starting at 685 million euros。
Paris and Arsenal are both 433 formations, which is a needle-to-needle match, both teams use non-No. 9 players to play cameo as center forwards, Paris uses winger Barcola, Arsenal uses Merino, but in the winger position, Arsenal only has Saka, Martinelli does not have the ability to break through, and Paris's Kvaratskhelia and Douai are both offensive explosions, with speed and can break through. In terms of midfield, Joao Neves and Vitinha, two young players who are too good to run, have good skills at their feet, and Fabian, the strongest midfielder in the Euro 2024 who has great control, can only say that Paris's midfield configuration is the strongest configuration in the five major leagues, which is better than the combination of Rice, Thomas and Odegaard.
Due to the early lead in this game (27 minutes lead, 2-0 on aggregate), Paris led more intelligently than Barcelona, and resolutely defended the counter-attack against Arsenal, who only had Saka in attack. Vitinha missed a point and Dembele came off the bench to set up Achraf's goal (3-0 on aggregate) after two minutes off the bench to seal the promotion place. Arsenal pulled one back by Saka, but Arsenal did not have a central striker and a left winger, only the right winger Saka, looking at Arsenal's biggest shortcoming this season is the striker, except for Saka, no one can be reused.
