128 The Final Battle of the Championship: The Dead End?(1/2)
"Thiago Silva! Heading the ball! Unbelievable picture!
Paris Saint-Germain's central defender broke the deadlock in Monaco's penalty area!
This is definitely unexpected for Monaco. They restricted the entire attack group of Ibrahimovic, Ravic, Lucas Jr., Verati and others in the midfield!
But who would have thought that Thiago Silva would actually hit the front line?
This must be Blanco's tactical design, and it was Paris Saint-Germain's killer move when he expected the deadlock to occur!
What happened ten seconds before the goal was born?
Silva and Alex were originally defending near the center line.
Under the pressure of the Paris Saint-Germain soldiers, they basically moved around here since the opening.
Alex was closer to the Rivier and Silva began to move forward, and he looked inconspicuous.
Monaco's midfield defense line blocked the area and targeted people. Lavic responded on the wing and controlled the ball, and the pace was not fast.
But Silva did not stop while jogging towards the frontcourt.
When he started to speed up slightly, the Monaco defense responded, and Moutinho moved two steps and stopped again. What was he worried about?
Of course, I am afraid that I will not have enough defense forces in the front areas of the restricted area.
Ye Yifeng turned around and chased back, but Silva's speed increased to the peak when rushing to the penalty area, and Ravic made a cross from the side!
Condobia and Ye Yifeng chased back to the penalty area together, but they could only watch Thiago Silva headed the ball!
They are unable to make defensive interference.
Paris Saint-Germain leads Monaco 1:0 at Stade Louis II!
Unexpected attack, wonderful tactical design, and the courage shown by Paris Saint-Germain to achieve the title defense!
It is conceivable that if Silva did not make a fight after the attack this time, once Paris Saint-Germain encountered a quick counterattack from Monaco, the defense line would be larger and the manpower might be insufficient.
Now the pressure has completely shifted to Monaco, they are behind the score, and Paris Saint-Germain returns to the top of the list!
What would Ranieri do? What would Monaco do?"
Thiago Silva ran to the corner flag area to celebrate. The Monaco fans in the stands of Louis II Stadium looked depressed, as if they were suffering from a bolt from the blue.
Paris Saint-Germain fans were ecstatic and cheered like tsunamis in the stadium!
Blanco's serious expression turned into a smile, and he was never arrogant and proud, just like seeing a natural goal born.
If Monaco has Falcao, Blanco dares not take risks with the back line.
But Monaco center is Rivier!
Even if Alex dares not say that he will definitely be forced to take the Rivier, he should be able to delay the foul.
Rather than using Van der Weill or Maxville to bet on Ye Yifeng or James Rodriguez.
Wouldn't it be less risky to use the back line to bet on the Rivier?
Moreover, Thiago Silva's back insertion will definitely produce the most unexpected effect.
Take the lowest risk and fight for the highest reward!
This is the most rational way for gamblers.
Ranieri was stunned for a moment after seeing the goal concealed, and came to his senses and clapped his hands to boost morale at the players on the field.
Although the Monaco players will become more stressed about conceding the ball, they are not completely prepared.
The coaching staff cannot avoid talking about a situation that is likely to happen before the game: what should we do if we lose the goal first and fall behind in the score?
Are you unprepared for on-the-spot response?
How is that possible!
They will not take a sharp turn for the worse because they are behind in the score. They will be more passive and more stressful in the situation. However, how to deal with it when they are behind is sufficiently mentally prepared and tactical arrangement before the game.
The cheers of Monaco fans resounded once again on the Stadium of Louis II, completely overshadowing the cheers from Paris Saint-Germain.
After the re-telection, Monaco did not push up a lot, but the offense was significantly accelerated, and Moutinho gradually went deeper into the frontcourt.
The changes in Paris Saint-Germain are more obvious at a glance, and the overall formation is retreating at least 20 yards!
They seem confident.
Paris Heng German is a planned fast break opportunity to attack Monaco's defense!
In the 40th minute of the game, Monaco's frontcourt attack came to the right. James Rodriguez was attacked by Maxville and Mota while controlling the ball. After he took the ball back one step, he kept passing the ball directly to the bottom line of the wing.
Kurzawa quickly sent a cross from the bottom.
The football flew to the back point of the penalty area, and Ye Yifeng went deep into the Paris Saint-Germain penalty area in the attack!
He jumped from behind the penalty area and headed the ball because of entanglement with Van derville, and this jump was obviously disturbed.
Although his head touched the football, he raised the ball.
After touching his head, Ye Yifeng quickly turned around and rushed towards the midfield.
Three minutes later, Ye Yifeng received the pass from Abidal on the left side of the front court, took the initiative to fight against Van der Weill to the side, Mota came to press, Ye Yifeng passed the ball across the middle.
After getting the ball, he quickly stepped forward. Moutinho sent a pass directly to Rivier's feet, but Rivier was too obvious when he planned to pass the ball to Ye Yifeng. Silva hit the ball and stretched out his leg to block the ball.
Ye Yifeng's running inward movement stopped abruptly and quickly turned back to sweep. The first target of the defense was Mota.
Seeing Matuidi pass the ball diagonally on the left side of the frontcourt, Ye Yifeng quickly returned to the defense and returned to the backcourt to assist Abidal to limit Lucas Jr.
Lavic dribbled in the left side of the frontcourt and was directly knocked to the ground by Tulalang. The referee showed Tulalang a yellow card.
Kurzawa did not appear in the frontcourt this time, but he did not come back yet.
Paris Saint-Germain got a free kick opportunity from the left side of the frontcourt.
Ye Yifeng did not put a wall, but instead targeted Matuidi, who might be able to respond in the middle.
Several Paris Saint-Germain players are preparing to grab the spot in the penalty area.
James Rodriguez, Ye Yifeng and Moutinho blocked Paris Saint-Germain's contact point in front of the penalty area. Unless Veratti passes the ball back, the only choice is to hang the ball into the penalty area or attack directly.
Just as Veratti assisted, the defensive players in Monaco ran to the outside of the penalty area in a uniform manner.
When Verati's pass fell into the penalty area, Ibrahimovic, Ravic, Mota, Thiago Silva, including Lucas, who entered the penalty area from the right, all offside!
Mota stopped the ball in the penalty area, and Ravic hit the ball into Monaco's goal from the side.
But the border hierarchy has raised the flag!
You are neatly offside like a family.
Monaco is also like a family when it comes to offside.
Blanco frowned slightly, not surprised by Ranieri's offside tactics for setting pieces.
But when the score is behind, Monaco can still maintain such a tacit and consistent action.
What does this mean?
Monaco players are focused and serious without any panic!
He nodded.
Monaco is indeed worthy of competing with Paris Saint-Germain!
If you fall behind in the score, you will be so panicked that you will lose your pants, which will be meaningless.
The half-time game ends.
Monaco 0:1 Paris Saint-Germain!
At this time, the Monaco fans in the stands of Louis II were panicked, and the Paris Saint-Germain fans were already a little proud.
After all, my younger brother is still my younger brother!
Back in the locker room, Ranieri did not make any adjustments to his tactical play. After all, the tactical adjustments to his defense of falling behind in the score were already arranged for the players before the game.
There is no unique tactical design.
Strengthen offense, improve defense and speed up both offense and defense!
Compared to the passive defense and counterattack, it is as much as possible to compress space and control the situation to avoid giving the opponent too many set pieces. When it is time to counterattack, Monaco cannot leave the defense behind all of a sudden, which is no different from admitting defeat and surrendering to give the championship to the opponent.
Ranieli re-emphasized the key points of the tactics and then boosted the morale of the team.
The Monaco generals also reminded each other of the points that should be paid attention to during offense and defense. When attacking, they would run more and tear the defense line, find space, pass as much as possible, and make as many success rates as possible. When defending, they should be calm and quick in the situation, and make decisive fouls if the situation is not good.
Ye Yifeng, who consumed more physically than usual, drank half a bottle of water, and then did not drink it. He took a sip, rinsed his mouth, and spit it out. He repeatedly used up the remaining half bottle of water.
Drinking too much water can easily affect your physical condition.
Gargling your mouth is to deceive the nerves and feel satisfied with drinking water.
Players know what to do.
No one is discouraged, no one is depressed.
They are even more fighting spirit and pressure than they did at the opening, and at this moment they are transformed into motivation!
