Football's hand covers the sky

Chapter 27 Take risks

"It's so explosive and bouncing," Martin Barr couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Wait~~~ I seem to have seen something extraordinary," Polank interrupted Martin Barr suddenly.

"What's the big deal?" Martin Barr immediately turned his head and asked.

"Dude~~~ Look at that guy's expression, look at the corner of his mouth." Polank pointed to the playback camera.

"Oh~~~God~~~ Did he do it on purpose?" Li Shou's mouth twitched slightly when Fontaine finished shooting.

Did Li Shou do it on purpose?

If someone asked him that, Li Shou would definitely tell you that he didn't do it on purpose.

But what about the real situation?He did it on purpose, he just wanted to lure Fontaine to play close corners on purpose.

In order to show Ranieri his ability.

But Li Shou will never admit this to the outside world, because Li Shou knows very well that there is no goalkeeper whose coach likes to take risks.

For a goalkeeper, stability is the most important thing. As long as you save the ball that should be saved, you can be called an excellent goalkeeper. If you make some wonderful and incredible saves on a stable basis, you can be crowned with the word "top".

"Did Lee do it on purpose?" Ranieri actually had this question on the sidelines.

"Based on what I know about Li, he probably wouldn't do that," Pellizzaro immediately defended Li Shou.

"And I think that if the opposing player is given another chance, he may not be able to kick such a free kick." This sentence really made Ranieri dispel his doubts.

In fact, Li Shou had the mentality of taking a gamble, and the opponent really kicked a world-class free kick.

It was also because of this wonderful save that Li Shou felt the enthusiasm of the Monaco fans for the first time. More than 5000 Monaco fans in the stands cheered for Li Shou for the first time, and there were even fragmentary voices calling their names.

The fans are not the head coach, they don't think so much, in their eyes, as long as you perform well enough, they will not be stingy with cheering and applause.

At the same time, the Monaco players also expressed their approval for Li Shou. Many people rushed to embrace Li Shou, and Medjani was full of gratitude.

However, this situation did not last long, because Le Havre's attack was not over yet, and it was still Le Havre's corner kick.

"I'll come." When the ball was sent into the penalty area, Li Shou roared to complete the clearance before the opponent's central defender.

Immediately, Monaco launched a counterattack. Li Shou blasted the ball and it just landed at the feet of Ndinga, but in the end Monaco failed to complete the counterattack.

Monaco failed to expand its lead, and Le Havre failed to tie the score. In the next ten minutes, Monaco's defense only gave Le Havre a chance to shoot, and this shot was directly captured by Li Shou.

Before the end of the first half, Le Havre ushered in the last chance to attack. Bonnet went down the side. Although Raj tackled the ball, he also gave the opponent a corner kick.

Le Havre took a tactical corner kick. Riviere suddenly pulled the sideline in this corner kick and completely disrupted Monaco's defense. After receiving a pass from Fontaine, Riviere decisively rubbed the ball into the penalty area.

Although Bonnet, the Le Havre winger is short in stature, his physical fitness is not bad. Coupled with his excellent speed and explosive power, he managed to get rid of the defensive players for a while.

"Header~~~No~~~No~~~Number 11~~~Li~~~ He rushed out, touched the ball before Bonnet, hugged it tightly, and pressed it under him," Martin Barr roared excitedly.

"Li~~~It's Li again~~~ At this moment, I completely forgot about Danielle." As far as the first half is concerned, Li Shou's performance was perfect.

When Li Shou rushed to Bonnet and touched the ball, Le Havre lost the last chance of the first half, and then the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

"Don't be proud, continue to be normal in the second half." In the player tunnel, Pellizaro was already waiting there. Pellizaro was very satisfied with Li Shou's performance in the first half.

Back in the locker room, Ranieri also praised Li Shou's performance in the first half. As a goalkeeper who started in the league for the first time, Li Shou performed very well in the first half.

And compared to those goalkeepers who have performed well in their first start, Li Shou is even more rare, because this guy has almost no game experience before this, which is what Ranieri is most worried about before the game.

After praising Li Shou Ranieri, he expressed his dissatisfaction with Monaco's performance in the first half, especially the offensive players. Monaco had a great advantage in the first half, but the players still failed to seize the opportunity to expand their lead.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on Monaco's offensive players. Speaking of which, the current Monaco's midfield strength is indeed very good, but it still lacks a striker who can score goals stably.

Germain is already the best striker in Monaco, but his scoring rate is not high. Including this goal in this game, Germain scored 9 goals.

However, even if there are only 9 goals, it has already broken Germain's season goals. Last season, Germain only scored 8 goals throughout the season.

It's no wonder that Ranieri wants to buy another striker during the winter break. Although Monaco already has six strikers, there are no strikers who can really be used.

In the second half, Monaco still won the game and failed to score. Faced with this situation, Ranieri finally couldn't sit still and used up the first substitution of the game. Toure replaced the Argentine genius Ocampos.

Toure's appearance increased the impact and air supremacy of Monaco's striker. Then Monaco changed its tactics and passed the ball into the penalty area after both wings flew together. Although simple and rude, the effect was very good.

No. In the 70th minute, Dilar crossed from the side, and Toure forced Gendun to ferry the header in the penalty area. Germain then rushed to the top to rewrite the score to 2:0.

This goal almost crushed Le Havre. There was already a gap in strength between the two sides. In the second half, Li Shou performed very steadily. He not only directed his teammates to block two waves of Le Havre's attack, but also saved two good shots from Le Havre.

No.707 minutes, Le Havre left-back Marchand stepped in and sent a cross, Rivière's header was once again directly pocketed by Li Shou.

No.801 minutes, Le Havre's last shot in a normal game came from Fontaine's high-quality long-range shot.

When Fontaine shot, Li Shou's line of sight was just blocked by Medjani, but even so, Li Shou still blocked Fontaine's shot with his amazing reaction.

If it were not for Li Shou's two wonderful saves, maybe Fontaine would have scored twice, and the situation on the field would not be what it is now. But there is no such thing in the football world. Li Shou's excellence has become a nightmare for Fontaine and even Le Havre.
