Chapter 168
In the second half of the game, when Monaco started to speed up, the effect was not very obvious. Chelsea was obviously more comfortable in defense after being familiar with Monaco in the first half.

In the 59th minute of the game, Monaco suffered a setback in the attack from the left. Chelsea's defense was too strong. Belletti, Ivanovic, and Kalou, who returned to defend actively in the second half, Monaco must be wary of being counterattacked by the opponent after all. , so Morrow didn't dare to press forward too much, at least without obvious space and opportunities, it would be extremely risky to rashly go up and participate in the attack.

After failing to play on the left, he moved to the right. Modesto plugged in from the right. After passing through the middle of Perez, Modesto dribbled the ball on the right side of the frontcourt to push the offensive. Ashley Cole's defense zone He has hardly been tested today, so at this time, he is a little bit arrogant to move forward to intercept Modesto head-on.

Modesto didn't know how to deal with this attack. Seeing Ashley Cole stepping forward to press, he took advantage of the opportunity to pass the ball diagonally to the left front.

Suarez took the initiative to run to meet a diagonal pass.

Ashley Colton turned back to defend, but Falcao had already stopped the ball on the outside of the penalty area.

Falcao took possession of the ball and cut across the penalty area, while Suarez quickly advanced into the penalty area.

Suarez's running position led Carvalho to retreat, and Essien also followed him back into the penalty area. Falcao used this as a cover to feign the ball in front of Lampard but still rushed along the corridor at the front of the penalty area.

Lampard really didn't expect that Falcao didn't pass the ball, and the sweep of blocking the pass line and stealing the ball was easily wiped out by Falcao.

From this point of view, Monaco's double forwards are all ruthless characters who are active at their feet.

Falcao crossed the ball and killed it close to the middle of the penalty area. When he found the opportunity, he took a shot!

The football blasted by his left foot flew straight to the upper left corner of the goal like a cannonball without a trace of rotation!

Seeing that Petr Cech had raised his hand to surrender, the Monaco fans were also ready to celebrate the goal, but there was only a bang, and the football hit the crossbar and bounced off!
Falcao couldn't believe it at once!

"My God! Falcao's shot hit the crossbar! It would have been fantastic if it had gone in!

Chelsea's defense definitely made a mistake. In this defense, they focused their energy on marking Suarez. They took it for granted that other Monaco players would play for Suarez, but Falcao, who had hardly performed before, showed Showing his killer's cold-blooded demeanor, if this goal is scored, Chelsea will definitely regret it. They ignored Falcao, or underestimated him!

It's a pity, Monaco seems to be launching a mad attack on Chelsea again! "

Situ Yunbing tried his best to restrain his disappointment on the sidelines!

He knows he shouldn't bring negative emotions to the players, so he must restrain himself!

Ancelotti gritted his teeth secretly, this Monaco suddenly gave people the feeling of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!
In fact, simply analyzing Monaco's performance in the French domestic battlefield cannot evaluate their true strength.

The reason is simple, the competitiveness of Ligue [-] is difficult to use as a criterion for evaluating strength.

Have Lyon dominated Ligue [-] long enough?

But Lyon's record in front of the Premier League teams is also very bad. Even if the dominant Lyon is like this, other Ligue [-] teams participating in the Champions League are even more unbearable.

So it is a bit distorted to judge how strong Monaco is just by looking at how smooth the domestic competition is.

But today, it was a real fight against Monaco. Ancelotti saw the strength of Monaco very intuitively, very strong!

If it weren't for luck, Chelsea might have fallen behind by two goals!
I thought that Gareth Bale, who left the Premier League, would be a threat, but he didn't expect that there was a Morrow behind him.

I thought Suarez was already the biggest threat, but I didn't expect that it was much more difficult to deal with than imagined, and there was a Falcao beside him!
Monaco, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon!

Ancelotti had to make gestures to make the team more aggressive in defense. The conventional defense seemed to be unable to restrain the trend of Monaco. Ancelotti also looked at his watch to pay attention to the time of the game.

Chelsea haven't really exerted their strength yet, because when they came to the away game, after observing Monaco's posture, Ancelotti decided to play back!

Let Monaco attack, attack as much as you want, isn't it a kind of consumption to the opponent?

This is Monaco's home court, but Monaco is not the Iron Division. When they can't attack, when they start to need to breathe, Chelsea will turn away!
The Monaco generals may always feel that they are very close to the goal, very close, as if separated by a layer of veil!

So they will work harder to uncover this layer of veil!
In the 64th minute of the game, after Anelka's frontcourt wide support and Malouda played an exquisite cooperation, Anelka's oblique ball gave Malouda a single-handed chance. De Gea quickly attacked and Maluda When Da Ge shot, De Gea had already blocked the angle, and the football hit De Gea's shoulder and popped out head-on!
Malouda was disappointed, Monaco immediately turned around and launched a counterattack against Chelsea after possession of the ball at the front of the penalty area.

Perez waded the ball past the midfield and then unexpectedly made a long pass directly!

Monaco hardly played long balls today, which caught the Chelsea defense a little off guard.

Since Perez's pass landed on the right side of the penalty area, Falcao confronted Carvalho when he rushed to grab the ball. Falcao the tiger took off first under the attention of everyone, but used an unconventional action to swing the scorpion Tail the ball back to do it!
The Monaco fans in the stands suddenly let out a cry of surprise, and then they had no time to applaud Falcao and paid attention to Monaco's next offensive.

After Suarez stopped the ball in the back, he nimbly made a horizontal dunk to pass Essien. When Terry stepped forward to defend, Suarez passed the ball diagonally to the left front.

Gareth Bell won the speed fight with Belletti. The veteran Belletti is a bit immobile. It may be due to the lack of competition and his physical fitness is a bit weak.

Gareth Bale flicked off Belletti before the shovel, and Belletti's shovel looked weak.

When Gareth Bell took the ball into the penalty area, Ivanovic stood in front of him. Ivanovic, who was defending in the penalty area, was not prepared to take the initiative, which made Gareth Bell Bell simply chose to shoot directly!

At the moment of his shot, Ivanovic lifted his leg to block, and the foot touched the football, which caused the football to bounce high and fly over the goal after being refracted.

Cech clapped his hands and gave Ivanovic a thumbs up.

Ancelotti made substitutions on the sidelines, and Belletti was almost exhausted, and now he will be replaced by new forces.

"Chelsea took the lead in making substitutions. Carlo Ancelotti replaced Belletti with Portuguese midfielder Deco. In this way, Chelsea's formation has not changed, but the threat of the midfield will rise in a straight line!"

When Situ Yunbing saw Chelsea's substitution, he fell into deep thought. Chelsea's substitution can be seen as strengthening the midfield. No matter where Monaco attacks from, they cannot avoid the series and transition of the midfield.

In this case, there is nothing wrong with Chelsea strengthening the midfield.

Situ Yunbing is quite envious of Chelsea's ability to use players like Deco as a substitute. Monaco has no players of the same level on the bench.

Monaco did not have any suitable candidates for substitutions, and Situ Yunbing had no reason to substitute under the current situation.

Everything is working fine for now.

Even after Chelsea's substitution, Monaco seems to have the initiative on the field, but the time is getting shorter and shorter, and Monaco's hope of winning Chelsea at home is getting smaller and smaller.

In the 69th minute of the game, Monaco tried to attack from the left again. Kalou returned to the defense actively. The spike changed direction to dodge Kalou's press, and then seeing Ivanovic kill in front of him, he immediately passed the ball diagonally to Suarez who took the initiative to meet him. The latter also felt a little uncomfortable under Essien's defense. He couldn't find the space to control the ball and change direction, so he kicked the ball and knocked back obliquely.

I plan to let the midfielder transition for a while before looking for opportunities.

But when Matic cut the ball forward, he unexpectedly found Deco rushing up to press. Chelsea's defense line in the midfield has always been lagging behind, forming a dense defense within 40 yards in front of the goal, compressing the attacking space, Even if Monaco's offense is unfavorable, it is difficult to create a threatening shot in the key area in front of the opponent's goal, but it has not encountered obstacles in the midfield organization.

But this time Deco's attack completely disrupted Matic's familiar rhythm of the game. He was forced to hit the ball on the right side first, otherwise he might even miss the ball in the next step.

Perez kept up without accident, but Perez also encountered a problem. He was robbed by Lampard just as he stopped the ball!
Situ Yunbing was looking at the overall situation from the sidelines at this time. He could clearly see the forward pressure of Chelsea's defense and the forward pressure of the formation!

This change is overall, not a local change caused by the sudden pressure of one or two players, but a global change!

Chelsea, see you soon!

When Perez didn't have room to turn the ball, he barely passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area, expecting Suarez to respond.

But Essien intercepted the ball halfway. Perez did not pass the ball well, and Suarez had no chance to catch it.

When Essien took control of the ball, he immediately sent a mid-to-long-distance pass, and the football flew to the left side of the front field.

Malouda stopped and took a trip to quickly advance the offensive, and the Monaco defense quickly retreated.

When he faced Modesto, he quickly matched with Anelka who took the initiative to run to meet the wall.

Modesto used the inside line to prevent Malouda from cutting inside, but Malouda went outside to the bottom, and Anelka moved forward to the middle of the goal, driving Monaco's entire defense back to the hinterland of the penalty area.

At this time, there is a large space in the front of the penalty area, and Malouda vigorously passes the ball back to the front of the penalty area before the bottom line!
Deco rushed up quickly and encountered Nkuru's pressing as soon as he stopped the ball. Decola retreated to dodge the ball and saw that Nkuru was going to press continuously. He knocked the ball lightly.

Nkuru made an emergency stop and then turned around to chase, but Lampard, who rushed to kill him, took the lead to walk the ball to the front of the penalty area. When Vertonghen stepped forward to block it, Lampard had already fully adjusted Space and shot angles!
Lampard, the magic lamp of the Blues, blasted out with a heavy kick, and the football flew across the penalty area of ​​Monaco like a shooting star, and hit the upper left corner of the goal!
De Gea didn't even make a save!
Monaco announces that the city gate has fallen at home!
