Chapter 96
The game was played, but the situation was not good.
"This time, Juventus will have a hard time playing!"
As the game resumed, coach Zhang Lu began to express his views.
Huang Xiaotian: "Oh, what should I say, Coach Zhang?"
Liu Xin also asked in confusion: "Yes, although Monaco is indeed one goal ahead, Juventus' strength is there, how can it be difficult to play, they still have a lot of time to overtake!"
Zhang Lu smiled and said: "Haha, didn't I say before the game that Monaco is a team with a defensive counterattack as its tactical system, and it is precisely this kind of team that is very difficult to deal with once it is ahead."
"Especially in this situation, there are Mbappe and Falcao in front, B Silva, Fabinho, Bakayoko in the midfield, and the back line commanded by Lei Ming in the backcourt. Once Monaco starts to defend seriously, it will definitely become Juventus' nightmare!"
"Coach Zhang, it's too early to say this. Coach Allegri must have considered this issue. I believe he should be able to come up with a countermeasure." Liu Xin questioned.
"Haha, I hope so!" At this time, Zhang Lu just smiled and didn't say anything more.
As the game continued, the situation on the scene seemed to be really predicted by coach Zhang Lu. After taking the lead, Monaco stopped attacking and focused on defensive counterattacks.
Facing this tactic of Monaco, Juventus' players began to be cautious. When attacking, the back line did not dare to press too far forward.
Because they all knew before the game that the No. 29 young player in Monaco was very sharp in counterattacks. If the opponent got the chance, I'm afraid that even Buffon would be unable to do anything to the opponent.
"Camille, pay attention to Alves at the back point, Higuain, I'll watch."
"Sidibe, hold him, don't let him turn around, pay attention to his right foot."
In the 10th minute of the game, a very threatening attack by Juventus was successfully defended by Monaco's players who were impeccable. Lei Ming played an important role in this command.
It was he who reminded Glick and Sidibe respectively, so that the two could clearly know what they should do.
In the following time, such things can be seen almost every few minutes on the court. Although Monaco's defense line is like a tottering boat in front of Juventus, they have withstood the pressure again and again, and the fans on the scene always cheer for their defense.
Such a scene also surprised many people who could not go to the scene to watch the game but were paying attention to the situation of Monaco players, especially the head coaches of some teams.
Although Arsenal was eliminated from the Champions League, Wenger cares more about the tension of the Champions League than anyone else. The reason is that there is a player he cares about very much who has been active in it.
That is naturally Lei Ming of Monaco.
He was attracted by the opponent's excellent performance before, and now, Lei Ming's performance in this game made him feel bright again.
Although I couldn't hear what the other party was saying, I knew from the commanding posture that this kid should be commanding his own defense line. Under his command, facing Juventus's wave after wave of attacks, Monaco actually passed the first half without any danger and entered the halftime break with a score of 1:0.
The original excellent goalkeeping ability, now with an excellent defensive awareness, also let Wenger see another kind of temperament in Lei Ming.
Leader.
Although he is only 20 years old this year and can only be regarded as a young player in the field of football, the temperament revealed invisibly during this command process can not escape Wenger's eyes.
Almost everyone in the entire defense line is older than him, but they are willing to accept the boy's dispatch, which directly explains the problem.
Wenger couldn't help it after seeing this. He didn't want to experience the plot of "Wenger's difference in signing" again, but decisively asked the team's sports director to start quoting for Monaco Lei Ming.
A transfer request for a goalkeeper worth 50 million euros also appeared in Monaco's management at this time.
Luis Campos' first reaction to receiving the transfer request was that Arsenal was crazy.
Previously, Wenger was criticized by many fans for his poor performance in the Champions League and his successive setbacks in the Premier League, which also attracted widespread attention in the world. Luis Campos also
He thought that many teams would make high offers for Lei Ming, but he never thought that the highest price would be offered by Arsenal.
But no matter how tempting this price is for them now, it is not the time to discuss the player's transfer. He can only suppress this offer and do the team work in peace.
.......
The game at the Louis II Stadium is still going on. After the start of the second half, although Juventus seems more anxious, the scene is actually almost the same as the first half.
Seeing that Monaco seemed to have made up their minds to play a 1:0 game, Juventus's head coach Allegri took the lead in making adjustments to the players.
In the 68th minute of the game, No. 22 Asamoah was off the court and No. 7 Cuadrado came on the court.
Although this is a positional substitution, Cuadrado's appearance means that Juventus will not give up the attack in the second half. On the contrary, they will increase their strength in the attack.
At this time, Higuain in the front field wiped the sweat from his forehead with some fatigue, while constantly observing the gap in Monaco's defense.
Before the game, someone told him that Monaco was not a small team with nothing. The reason why they could get to where they are now was all due to their own strength, especially the opponent's goalkeeper, who was very strong and you might not be able to beat him.
Originally, he was very disdainful of this person's words and sneered at them.
But now, he had to admit that what Instant Noodle Luo said was right. Monaco was really hard to deal with, especially this very troublesome goalkeeper, who repeatedly blocked several of his shots, making him feel like he was facing a young version of Buffon.
No, this kid felt more difficult than Buffon in the past.
Because now he is not the young Higuain, but the Higuain with the nose of a top striker.
But even so, he couldn't get too good a chance in front of the opponent.
"Instant Noodle Luo, Instant Noodle Luo, why didn't you tell me this earlier!"
Seeing that the team's attack time was coming again, Higuain made a very hidden gesture to his teammates and ran in another direction.
Even if it doesn't work, he has to give it a try.
