Chapter 177 Laying the Foundation for the Next Game
"Gareth Bale scores! Monaco beat Porto at the Dragon Stadium!

Can't resist!
Porto’s defense just can’t defend against Monaco. We don’t need to analyze the situation. Porto is very strong and Monaco is equally tenacious. But in the comparison of strikers, Monaco is more flexible and more lethal!

Falcao's long-range shot almost pierced the goal. He made the goalkeeper Helton make a save and Gareth Bale made a supplementary shot in front of the goal!
Why is he there?

In the second half, his trajectory was more elegant and agile, and he did not stay on the side in a regular manner. Maybe this is the reason. Monaco released stronger offensive firepower, but Porto did not, and Porto's defense was still at a loss!
In this game, Porto has been unable to recover. As long as Monaco maintains its current state, they will undoubtedly take away the victory of the game. "

The striker trident each made a contribution, Monaco's offensive and defensive integrity was fully reflected, and players in each position played an important role, establishing an overall advantage at a high level.

This is precisely the progress of Monaco after losing to Chelsea!
Setbacks make them grow fast!
Because they don't want to lose again!

Porto is showing signs of collapse, what is Situ Yunbing thinking in his mind at this time?
He didn't celebrate wildly because of Gareth Bale's goal, he applauded calmly, and then put his hands in his pockets to show a thoughtful expression.

The adjustment of the midfield is to make a fuss on the left. While Morrow is improving his offensive aggressiveness, Gareth Bale moves closer to the center and in front of the goal. If this is not done, Morrow's forward pressure will be meaningless. Because the position will partially overlap with Gareth Bell, the role has not changed much.

Gareth Bale can play the role of a free man in the frontcourt, but Situ Yunbing can't put him in the position of a free man all at once. He is different from Suarez. Suarez has the unfettered nature of South American players , South American players are eclectic, while European players are basically the opposite and like to stick to the rules.

Therefore, the further training of Gareth Bell needs a little bit to stimulate his sense of position, which requires him to improve his ability to read the game, that is, the overall situation, and of course experience.

His speed ability itself is a special existence with extraordinary talent, because the ability of speed can hardly be greatly improved the day after tomorrow, and there is no doubt that talent far exceeds hard work in this ability.

The situation is developing in a good direction. Situ Yunbing builds the team focusing on the overall situation. Now when dealing with the game, he also needs to raise his thinking to the overall situation.

This game is not over yet, and I have already started thinking about the next game back home against Porto.

Porto will definitely be desperate in that game, otherwise, Porto will basically be out, because Monaco will have 3 points more than them if they win this game, and if Monaco continues to score points in the next game, they will either have 6 points more than them The record has an advantage, or they have 4 points more than them. Porto will face Chelsea in the next two rounds. Monaco will also play Chelsea, but Monaco still has room to lose points. On the contrary, Porto has none.

Instead of trying to reverse Monaco in the last two rounds, it is better to fight against Monaco with all their strength in the next game. Even a small away win can give them a certain sense of security in terms of points.

Situ Yunbing made a substitution in the 65th minute of the game. Falcao was replaced and Witsel was replaced.

There is no room for loss in this game, and more importantly, Porto must be desperate!

Porto strengthened the attack on the left in the second half. With the current score, Monaco can completely strengthen the defense on the right to achieve control of the game and further contain Porto's offense!
When Falcao left the field, he was a little unsure. Situ Yunbing took the initiative to hug him and whispered in his ear: "Go back to play Bordeaux on the weekend, I want you to continue to score goals for me!"

After hearing this, Falcao immediately lost any emotion, and sat obediently on the bench to take the coat handed over by Alonzo and put it on to keep warm.

Monaco's offensive momentum has declined after the substitution, and Witsel's appearance is a clear signal: tighten the defense.

Porto tried to counterattack, but couldn't find the direction of attack. For some reason, facing Porto, they felt as powerless as facing Chelsea!
Monaco also had a similar feeling when they played against Chelsea. They had no way to attack, and it seemed that no matter how they played, it seemed to have no effect. If Suarez hadn't had some changes in attack brought about by a flash of inspiration, Monaco might have looked a little ugly on the scene.

Now Monaco has strengthened its defense. Although it is not an iron barrel formation, it uses powerful interception and pressing capabilities to prevent the opponent from gaining a firm foothold in the midfield and making it difficult to play a smooth offensive. This shows the team's comprehensive strength.

The pace of the game gradually slowed down. Porto was still afraid of being bloodbathed by Monaco after all, so they didn't dare to press aggressively. Gareth Bale and Suarez, who stayed on the field with Situ Yunbing, were not soft in the counterattack. Potential to deliver a coup de grace, the presence of these two is like the sword of Damocles hanging over Porto's head.

Monaco took full control of the game. In the 78th minute, Monaco made a second substitution.

Muratori came on to replace Gareth Bale.

The defensive line retreated further, actively pressing the area and retreating 10 yards.

Morrow was at the winger position and Muratori played at fullback.

Monaco have shown a maturity that doesn't match the youthful label their team is always labeled by the media.

In the past, the control of the game was basically only the concept of ball control and the concept of bringing pressure to the opponent's mad attack.

But when Porto reached the Champions League in 2004, and the year after Rehhagel led Greece to win the European Cup, the concept of defense shaping the game situation and controlling the game gradually became popular.

The development of modern football often sums up past experience and then innovates on this basis. The most popular in modern European football is Barcelona's pass control. In a few years, when pass control encounters high-pressure counterattacks and then counterattacks, people will also realize that defense can also have a huge dominance over the game.

Monaco is now taking a completely opposite path to Barcelona.

Barcelona pay attention to keeping the ball at their feet and not letting the opponent control the ball, then the opponent cannot score.

Monaco is just the opposite. Let the opponent control the ball, and the opponent will always make mistakes. It is impossible for the offense to be converted into a goal every time. As long as the defense is successful, their chance will come.

Maybe Monaco's style of play is unpopular and won't get widespread support from the outside world. These are not important. What Situ Yunbing wants is a style of play that can beat the opponent, not a player who doesn't know whether he will win or not, but who can be praised by others tactics.

Porto is also substituting, but the effect is still not ideal. Their striker has been completely cut by Monaco through defense. The medium and long-distance transportation is basically ineffective because the offensive space is compressed.

In the 86th minute of the game, Situ Yunbing used up the last substitution, and Adriano came on to replace Suarez.

Monaco has no strikers on the pitch!
Witsel went to the front, just frantically pressing and harassing the opponent. The defensive formation behind him was very complete, so there was no need to worry about losing position.

The Monaco fans in the stands of the Dragon Stadium sang the team song and the carnival had already begun, while the Porto fans were downcast and overshadowed.

When the whistle sounded for the end of the game, the Monaco fans burst into earth-shattering cheers, and the Monaco generals also raised their fists on the court with pride!
"The game is over! The third round of the UEFA Champions League Group D match between Porto and Monaco came to an end. The score was 0:3. Porto suffered an unexpected defeat at home!

Before the game, the outside world generally believed that the strength of the two teams was equal, but the game process can be said to be one-sided.

Monaco did not put on a posture to bombard Porto indiscriminately, but the problem is that Porto actively attacked but failed to create much threat. Monaco's defense has always been safe. Porto only had 90 shots at home in 6 minutes. Enough to illustrate the problem, they let Monaco goalkeeper De Gea can only be a spectator of a game for a long time!

On the other hand, although Monaco did not take many shots, they frequently launched fast breaks and continuous attacks on the basis of a solid defense line. Killing machine, in the first and second halves, the striker trident each scored a goal, Monaco took advantage of its own striker to the extreme, and winning became very reasonable.

In another game in the same group, Chelsea's match against Atletico Madrid at home was also one-sided. Chelsea beat Atletico Madrid 4-0 at Stamford Bridge.

Atletico Madrid, who lost all three games, is really disappointing. Although they have not been declared eliminated, they may have to rely on miracles to qualify!

After this round, the ranking of this group is that Chelsea ranks first with 9 points, Monaco ranks second with 6 points, Porto ranks third with 3 points, and Atletico Madrid ranks bottom with 0 points.

Next round if Monaco will return to host Porto and Atletico Madrid will take on Chelsea at the Calderón. "

When Situ Yunbing learned that Atletico Madrid had lost to Chelsea after the game, he just shook his head and smiled wryly.

I thought that Atletico Madrid was very strong, but it turned out that Atletico Madrid is indeed the weakest in this group!

Defeating Atletico Madrid in the first round actually gave Monaco a false impression, and now it proves that Monaco's previous confidence is somewhat watery.

After defeating Porto, Situ Yunbing was still very low-key after the game, but UEFA did not let him go.

He was fined 3 euros and issued a warning for making inappropriate remarks to the referee during the game!
Situ Yunbing felt aggrieved, but there was nothing he could do. The Football Association was full of hooligans, and he had nothing to reason with hooligans!
Even if the whole world knows that the referee team misjudged and blown away a one-handed goal in Monaco, UEFA will not even let a fart go!
Just ignore it, someone is really serious, it's nothing more than perfunctory with clichés.

Misjudgments are part of football!
