Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 259 Under Pressure!

After scoring the goal, Witsel turned and ran to the corner flag area to celebrate, his facial expression was slightly distorted because of being too excited. At this moment, maybe even he himself didn't quite believe that he sent the ball into Inter Milan's goal!

The Monaco generals roared and rushed towards him, and De Gea ran excitedly around the penalty area in the backcourt.

"Headed by Witsel! What a powerful header!
Cesar tried his best but failed to change the flight path of the football. He still touched the football, but only a little bit. His fingertips touched the football a little bit, and he was almost able to stop Witsel's goal from being born!

Both teams are constantly looking for changes in the offense and looking for weaknesses in the opponent's defense. It is hard to say that Monaco has found the weakness in Inter Milan's defense. In general, Inter Milan had a slight advantage in the first half and created a threatening offensive On the other hand, the two teams are evenly matched.

This time when Gareth Bale shifted from the right to the center, Witsel was running forward. When he received a pass from Suarez, he had already run from the right to the front left of the penalty area. The running at the front of Milan's penalty area successfully attracted the main force of Inter Milan's defense line, and at the same time gave Witsel the conditions to sprint into the penalty area to become an unexpected attack point.

Of course, in the end, Gareth Bell's kick pass assist is absolutely flawless, allowing Witsel to rush forward and take off without slowing down, just enough to complete the top rush!
The 21-year-old Belgian midfielder Witsel helped Monaco score the first goal in the Champions League final. He replaced Falcao in the starting game today and lived up to the trust of head coach Situ Yunbing!
Monaco 1:0 Inter Milan! "

Although the Inter Milan fans in the stands were a little shocked and panicked because of the loss of the ball, coach Mourinho did not change his face, even if he was not calm inside.

The idea of ​​​​wanting to pass the first half smoothly was shattered. The goal of Monaco made him need to make more drastic adjustments during the intermission!
Situ Yunbing had already calmed down when the team returned to halftime. Even though his heartbeat was still fast, he suppressed his excitement and calmly directed the team to strengthen the defense. There were about 2 minutes left in the first half, and Monaco Need to hold on and bring the lead into the locker room!
The morale of the Monaco team was high, and all members retreated.

Inter raced against the clock after kick-off to see if they could level the score quickly.

Maicon cut in from the right to receive Zanetti's pass. He immediately faced Gareth Bale's frontal interception. Immediately forward.

Although Maicon moved forward to regain control of the ball, Gareth Bell returned to the defense and actively pursued him, which made Maicon pass the ball diagonally back to the middle without going to the bottom.

As soon as Cambiasso came up to stop the ball, he was counter-robbed by Suarez. He knocked the ball back diagonally to Lucio, who waded the ball directly past the midfield. Not to mention, many Brazilian defenders have Lucio is a typical example of the attributes of a guard with a knife. When he plays well, he can bring surprise blows to the opponent, and when he plays badly, he becomes a time bomb in defense.

Because it was the final of the Champions League, Lucio was also cautious, but now that Inter Milan needed to score, he naturally went into the enemy camp without hesitation, but Monaco's entire army did not give him enough space to retreat, which made him face Marty. When Qi was defending, it seemed that the ball was not fine enough, and the pass he wanted to pass to Pandev was sent out of bounds.

Situ Yunbing applauded on the sidelines to cheer for the team. Just as he took the lead, his opponent faced a strong counterattack. At this time, Monaco must not relax!
After passing the last minute of the first half smoothly, when Weber blew the whistle, Situ Yunbing felt that his tense nerves were instantly relaxed, but he was restrained.

When he turned around and walked towards the player tunnel, he saw Mourinho with a calm expression on his face. It was not a crisis of life and death at this time, but the calmness shown by Mourinho was indeed worthy of the demeanor of a top coach!

The Monaco fans in the stands of the Bernabéu stadium cheered for the team. Monaco leading Inter Milan is the best stimulant for them!
After returning to the locker room, Situ Yunbing quickly arranged for masseurs to relax the players' muscles, and even some coaches took the initiative to massage the players, and then everyone listened carefully to Situ Yunbing's midfield adjustments.

Things have changed.

Monaco leads the score, and now they must be the best way to shrink back and be more patient to catch the opponent's counterattack opportunities.

Adjustments and deployments will be made according to this situation. For example, Suarez does not have to be at the forefront all the time. He can retreat to find space, and move forward in counterattack sports to play more flexibly.

But Situ Yunbing also knew deep in his heart that he always had to keep his hand, and he couldn't completely pin his hopes on the team's defense that could contain Inter Milan's offensive, because Inter Milan's journey this season is not only hard, The fighting power erupted in a desperate situation cannot be underestimated!
Before leaving the locker room, Situ Yunbing once again boosted morale. Monaco was high-spirited, but they consumed a lot of energy in the first half. Relatively speaking, they ran more on both ends of the offense and defense, especially the midfielders. Both have to be taken into account, and the range of activities is very large.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, the Bernabéu was noisy, and the fans of both teams were passionately cheering for their respective teams.

Monaco has already expressed its attitude when it came out in the second half: it will unswervingly play defensive counterattacks!
Formation limit contraction!

Inter took over in midfield logically and then patiently went on the offensive.

Mourinho stood on the sidelines with his hands on his hips, looking up towards the Monaco half-court, his eyes full of determination.

In the 48th minute of the game, Sneijder and Zanetti encountered the Monaco midfielder after passing the ball consecutively in the middle of the front court. Sneijder quickly transferred the ball to the right, and Maicon then inserted the ball and advanced 10 yards. When he came to Morrow's defense zone, he observed the situation and then knocked the ball across the right side of the penalty area. After the ball was released, he immediately cut inside. Morrow turned to follow up. At this time, Milito, who took the initiative to respond, turned the ball back diagonally. It went to Pandev, who cut inside and into the middle, before hitting a volley from 25 yards!
The ball itself was not a big threat, but when it flew into the penalty area, it hit Benatia's leg and refracted De Gea. De Gea moved to the left post of the goal. After refraction, the football flew to the right goal. At this time, De Gea was powerless to return to the sky. He turned his head and saw the football rolling out of the baseline against the outside of the right goal post.

Cold sweat fell down his cheeks, and De Gea couldn't help but let out a long breath.

Countless Inter Milan fans in the stands also hugged their heads and sighed, feeling extremely sorry for the goal.

In the 51st minute of the game, after Maicon made a 45-degree pass from the front side, Vertonghen nodded the ball in front of the penalty area to clear the ball, and passed Matic's header relay to Suarez behind the center circle. Si, the latter stopped the ball and pulled the ball horizontally to get rid of Cambiasso's press, turned around and rushed forward 5 yards, Cambiasso chased from the side and rear, and Suarez immediately knocked the ball across to the left.

Gareth Bell took the lead and rushed the ball with speed to advance the counterattack!

Mourinho gritted his teeth secretly. At this time, Monaco's counterattack threat must be enough to make Inter Milan terrified!

Because Inter Milan invested more players in the attack than in the first half, the pressure of the formation has also improved, and at the same time it has brought more room for the opponent to attack!

This time, Gareth Bell slashed the ball from a place close to the left side and then did not change direction. He slammed the ball all the way to the front right of the penalty area!
Suarez also ran diagonally behind him. The two completed a cross exchange. When Gareth Bale hit the right side of the penalty area, Samuel and Chivu came to mark him together. , this time Gareth Bell hit the ball across the left.

Suarez happened to be in place and took advantage of the situation to change the direction of the ball and enter the middle of the penalty area!
Lucio turned around and got stuck a beat slower!
At the moment Suarez shot, Samuel turned back to the defense and put a shovel to the limit!

Suarez had already touched the ball with his right foot shot, but at almost the same moment, Samuel's shoveled foot also touched the football. land!
Situ Yunbing raised his hands on the sidelines and yelled at the fourth official: "This is a fucking penalty! Damn it!"

Suarez also signaled to the referee Webber that Samuel had fouled, but Weber shook his head at him and did not say anything, and stretched out his hand to indicate that it was a corner kick from Monaco.

Suddenly Suarez stood up angrily and ran to Weber, gesticulating to indicate that the opponent's tackle hit him!
Weber patiently explained to him and calmed him down.

Monaco fans in the Bernabeu stands also booed to protest the referee's penalty.

Situ Yunbing shook his head slightly on the sidelines. Although he couldn't see whether it was a penalty or not, he had to put pressure on the referee team!

In terms of forward flexibility, Monaco's Gareth Bale has a strong impact, and Suarez is more flexible in dribbling, so it is easier to cause physical contact when the opponent defends!
On Inter Milan's side, Milito is a high center forward, and Eto'o is relatively flexible, but overall, if the referee's whistle is tighter, it will be relatively more beneficial to Monaco.

Suarez was so disappointed that he stood in the Inter penalty area and shook his head slightly before Monaco took the corner.

Today is the UEFA Champions League final. On this stage, every player is under pressure, and Suarez is no exception. It is obvious that whether it is Monaco or Inter Milan, players with outstanding skills today pursue speed in terms of technical performance. Lack of technical display, because the pace of the game is also fast, sometimes a false move on the spot, a passing opportunity will be gone, and the change of direction depends more on the sense of speed and rhythm than the deception of skills.

In a normal game, Suarez had the opportunity just now, he could definitely smash the ball and change direction to avoid Samuel's shovel, but because it was the Champions League final, he was also nervous in his performance!
