165 Unbreakable!
Monaco's home match against Chelsea officially kicked off.
The high-spirited Monaco generals faced world-class teams and showed a strong home aura after the opening!
At the beginning, I wanted to give London giants a warning!
Garez Bale cooperated with Moro from the left. After passing through Beletti's defense zone, Garez Bale pretended to break through but kicked the ball back against Ivanovic. After seducing Ivanovic to grab it, he quickly passed the ball straight to the bottom line.
Morro stepped in front and saw the gap in the opponent's defense line from the left, Chelsea seemed not panicked, and the defense line was adjusted in an orderly manner. Mid-back Essin retreated into the penalty area, while Lampard blocked Monaco's potential midfielder threat in front of the penalty area.
Morrow adjusted one step in front of the baseline and sent a cross with his left foot.
Terry stared at Suarez to death, but Falcao caught the opportunity to head the ball next to Carvalho at the back point, but Carvalho's position also faintly blocked his attacking angle, making Falcao's header too far and missed the angle.
Chelsea were calm and composed. Their temperament in the arena may be the most stable in Europe. This foundation was set after Mourinho took over the team in 2004, and has benefited greatly from many years since then. Even after Mourinho left the team, people talked about Chelsea, but they always couldn't avoid the influence Mourinho had on this team. Even the beautiful football that the boss Abu thought of was unavailable because of the hard blood in the Blues' bones.
Chelsea didn't look as excited as Monaco at the Louis II Stadium. They played steadily, just like their performance against Porto in the first round, they would not drive the rhythm and make the sky collapse. They wanted to kill thousands of miles to make their opponents defeated? That was not what the Blues pursued. They were more in controlling the game, guiding the development of the situation on the field with unbreakable defense, and then winning the opponent with a quick counterattack.
Ancelotti is the new coach. With the Italian coach's cautious thinking and Italy's own style of focusing on defense, in the early days of coaching the team, the focus on building and improving the team must be defense!
This is obvious to many famous Italian coaches. Lippi and Capello are both very representative coaches.
In fact, great coaches have common features behind their glory, that is, their emphasis on defense.
This is also an important reason why Situ Yunbing has implemented and insisted on building a tough defense in the past year, and has learned to imitate those successful famous coaches.
Monaco has set up a tight defense line in the midfield and backcourt, and Chelsea's offensive organization seems slow. In the early stages of the game, they are definitely unwilling to speed up the pace. This is Monaco's home court. If it were at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea might have brought up the fast pace of the Premier League that is coming and going like a wind to see if Monaco can keep up.
In the 5th minute of the game, Lampard and Beletti cooperated in the midfield. Under Perez and Matic's blockade, Lampard did not force a breakthrough. This top England midfielder is better at running and passing the ball in the game and threatened forward. He divided the ball to the right side.
When Gareth Bale and Moro were clamping against Carau, Carau knocked the ball back. Gareth Bale turned around and looked at it and suddenly saw Beletti pulling forward successfully.
The 33-year-old Beletti has entered the end of his career. He originally played on the right back, but lost his main position at Barcelona and then came to Chelsea. Now Chelsea wants to train Ivanovic, and his position is very awkward, but Ancelotti still gave him a chance today. He is experienced and can provide protection against Ivanovic, enhance defense on the wing, and at the same time, he can provide strong support on the right in the offense. From this point of view, Ancelotti's arrangement of troops does not follow the rules, which is not surprising. Ancelotti's Christmas tree tactical formation with four No. 10 players during the AC Milan period has been talked about by many fans.
Beletti used Gareth Bale's turn and dribble to speed up and break through from him successfully. Gareth Bale chased him back. Although he would definitely catch up with Beletti if he gave him enough time, the experienced Brazilian veteran would not compete with Gareth Bale for speed, which would be too unwise.
After attracting Matic to assist in the defense of the wing, Monaco's defensive formation has obviously tilted towards Morro's side. You should know that there is still Karau here.
Beletti immediately passed the ball across the middle.
Lampard quickly inserted and snatched the ball before Nkuru blocked it and passed the ball diagonally in front of the penalty area to the left.
Chelsea's offensive transfer was fast and fierce!
Maluda cut inward from the left and stopped and rushed directly into the left rib of the penalty area. Benatia turned around and returned to the defense to block Maluda's shooting angle, but the latter took the lead and completed the shot!
The ball was very threatening, and the football headed towards the closest corner. De Gea calmly rushed out and blocked the ball out of the baseline with one hand!
"Maluda tested De Gea, and this low shot forced De Gea to make a wonderful save!
Monaco's young Spanish goalkeeper has played all the games in the past two months. Although his performance was a bit disappointing at the beginning, he soon won everyone's recognition with his increasingly steady performance."
Situ Yunbing made a gesture to Modesto on the sidelines, allowing him to strengthen his protection of the inside!
In terms of offensive creativity, Lampard may have a much worse brain than many midfielders today, but in fact, Lampard's data on sending threat balls in the Premier League are actually very gorgeous, perhaps because of his simple style, and his scoring ability is also very strong, so people often ignore him and are actually very talented in organization.
With Chelsea's rise in the Abu era, Lampard is definitely no less than Terry's role in youth training.
Judging from the phenomenon that Chelsea can shoot in Monaco's penalty area, Chelsea's offense is of higher quality!
The entire Monaco side actually has a high fighting spirit in his heart and hopes to defeat Chelsea at home!
This is not only because he wins Chelsea as the top spot in the group, but more importantly, he hopes to prove his strength in front of world-class teams.
In the 8th minute of the game, Monaco attacked the frontcourt, Perez and Matic were running side by side in the middle. With Lampard and Essin in the middle defense, Monaco's midfield advancement was almost unlikely to form a penetrating offensive, so they could only play on the wing.
Perhaps Ancelotti also saw this right, so he activated Beletti today. Brazilians are born with a supplementary effect on the right.
Gareth Bale knocked the ball back when Beletti and Ivanovic attacked. Moro rushed up and stopped the ball and then made a pass across the top.
Ivanovic watched the football fly behind him. He turned around and immediately chased back, but saw Suarez running ahead of the left bottom line to control the ball.
When Ivanovic returned to defense, Suarez also adjusted the offensive direction.
Suarez made a move to knock the ball back diagonally, and Vanovic's center of gravity moved slightly to block the opponent's pass line, but Suarez's spike under his feet accelerated and broke through in the direction of the baseline!
Ivanovic was instantly wiped out by Suarez!
Beletti quickly blocked before returning to the bottom line of defense. Suarez then changed the ball and reversed the slightest backward Beletti. With this dunk, Suarez fully demonstrated the skillful technical characteristics of South American players in possession!
After two consecutive days, Suarez saw Essin rushing towards him. Chelsea would definitely not let Suarez ravage their defense line so unruly!
During their years of playing in the Champions League, Ronaldinho was the first and Messi was the next. They had met many great players with strong individual raids. Suarez has not reached their level yet, so naturally it would not make the Chelsea defense generals panic.
However, Suarez finally led to a local advantage. When Essin rushed over, he decisively knocked the ball back diagonally back to the left outside the penalty area.
Matic rushed up and shot with a fury shot!
The football flew towards the Chelsea goal like a cannonball. Cech swung bravely and tried to hold the ball with both hands, but the ball was too fast and he could only block the ball with both hands!
The football was still in the penalty area after bounced, and Falcao followed up and headed the ball and shot, but Carvalho took the lead and then headed the ball to clear the ball.
When Lampard rushed to the landing point outside the penalty area, Perez, who was originally in the frontcourt, continued to step forward and take control of the ball first. He padded the ball with his thigh and then pushed it horizontally when the ball landed and hit the ground, dodged Lampard's pressing, and Essin followed one after another!
Chelsea's defensive mobility is too fast!
It is impossible for a world-class team to make it easier for an opponent to visit his back garden at the front of the penalty area.
Leave very little time for opponents to react and handle balls!
Perez shortly passed the ball to Gareth Bale's running line, which cut inside.
Gareth Bale wanted to copy the goal he played against Atletico Madrid in the last round, and then dribbled vigorously when touching the ball, and then accelerated to cut into the left rib of the penalty area.
Terry was as calm as a mountain. When Gareth Bale dribbled and rushed into the penalty area, Terry turned around and rushed towards the football. When he took a step, Gareth Bale was less than two meters behind him. When he took the second step, Gareth Bale had almost caught up with him!
There is no third step, Terry just put the shovel!
His shovel is against the ball rather than against the person!
Gareth Bale had to stop, otherwise he would step on Terry, and Terry made a shovel and cleared the bottom line.
Situ Yunbing was somewhat regretful. If Gareth Bale had gone through this goal, he would not have scored an absolute goal, but at least he would have an excellent chance to score, because no matter whether he shot or passed the ball, it would pose a huge threat.
But Terry's shovel was too timely and decisive!
It has to be admired that if this ball was replaced by Monaco's defender, whether it was Vertonheng or Benatia, he might have probably stuck to the position according to conventional defense, protecting the line and blocking the opponent's cut. However, in fact, in terms of speed, Gareth Bale's strength, many defenders did not have time to completely protect the line to form a block. Terry is worth learning from both experience and predictions.
Monaco fought a crazy attack, but Chelsea's defense was as solid as a rock!
Chapter completed!
