Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 62
When Situ Yunbing walked into the Louis II Stadium wearing a warm down sportswear, the fans in the nearby stands gave him warm applause and cheers!
Many people stretched out their hands hoping to give Situ Yunbing a high-five, but Situ Yunbing did not extend his hand, but applauded the fans to express his gratitude before walking to the sidelines.

Now Situ Yunbing's popularity in this stadium is simply overwhelming!
There is a reality that the fans know very well in their hearts: relying on Monaco's lineup is not enough to compete for the championship!

Perhaps the best ranking is to be in the top six, but getting into the top four is very difficult.

Not to mention Lyon, Marseille, and Bordeaux teams with strong teams, even Paris Saint-Germain, Lille, these teams look stronger than Monaco's lineup.

But now that Monaco is at the top of the list, Situ Yunbing should take the lead!
Situ Yunbing, as the owner here, shook hands with Sochaux coach Kilot standing on the sidelines before the game.

Kilot was little-known in his player era, and he didn't have any great achievements in coaching after retiring. He led Lance to perform well for a year and a half before coming to Sochaux. He has coached the team for almost a year and a half so far.

Sochaux performed well in the last two rounds of the league. Although the result was two consecutive draws, they at least drew with the mighty Bordeaux.

Sochaux belongs to one of the teams that have to solve the problem of relegation first every year. Such teams are basically similar, with low financial resources and mediocre youth training products. The team only needs to survive in Ligue [-] every year It can be satisfied, but if you want to go further into the European war, you will always fail.

However, such a team will not raise their hands and surrender when facing a strong enemy.

Situ Yunbing still stood on the sidelines supervising the battle as usual, he really never dared to slack off for a moment and had a fluke mentality.

He knows the strength of Monaco better than anyone else, because if this Monaco team is born without him, they will be relegated to play in Ligue [-] in the next two or three years!
It wasn't until Ranieri came to coach that the team was brought back from the second division to the first division.

Regardless of the fact that the team is currently at the top of the standings, if it is a little slack, it may be a thousand miles away!

The most deadly thing is that once the team shows a downward trend, it may be that Da Luo Jinxian is really powerless!
The more the outside world thinks that the game is a surefire game, Situ Yunbing will face it more cautiously.

Winning a strong team is 3 points, and winning a relegation team is also 3 points. So far, Situ Yunbing has a good record against the first team in the standings. He won Marseille and Lyon, ranking in the back He also won Al and Auxerre, but Monaco has lost points against some weak teams, which reminded him that he must get the points he should get!

Fortunately, Monaco is in extraordinary form now, the team is full of confidence, and their fighting spirit is bursting!
Therefore, with the advantage of the home court, amidst the enthusiastic cheers of the fans, Monaco quickly gained the advantage at home, and the offense launched a continuous attack towards Sochaux's defense like a wave!
Sochaux's defensive strategy today surprised Situ Yunbing. He carefully observed from the sidelines. Sochaux did not defend like the traditional way of shrinking the defense line to compress the opponent's attacking space, but in the area from the penalty area line to the midfield line. Carry out intensive counter-robbing!
The more he looked at it, the more strange it became, because it seemed familiar.

After a long time, I suddenly realized: Isn't this very similar to Monaco's defensive style?
He couldn't help looking at Sochaux coach Kilot, who really had a lot of expectations today.

Because he really couldn't think of any way to contain Monaco, and Monaco's style of play made many teams uncomfortable.

Ligue [-] has a tradition of the Latin genre and pays more attention to individual skills, so many players' individual performances will be very good. This league is also prone to young players like Ben Arfa, Mene, Hazard, etc. who are commonplace in dribbling and breaking through. The attention of first-tier clubs and even giants.

However, Monaco's current defensive system greatly limits the personal performance of the opponent's dribbling players. They often press continuously before they start or have not started, causing them to lose the ball, or passing the ball in a hurry leads to a pass error.

When the gold content of teamwork is not high, Monaco's defensive strategy seems bold and adventurous, and it is tough and rough, but it is so practical and effective.

The most important thing is that most teams are quite satisfactory in defense, so it is easier to be caught off guard when Monaco turns around to play a fast break or counterattack when the offense is just launched.

Because he has seen many teams' defenses remain unchanged, Situ Yunbing was puzzled for a long time by the obvious changes in Sochaux's defense.

Now he understands, Kirot is repaying him with his own way!

The Monaco generals were also a little uncomfortable at first, but Sochaux did not play well when he launched an attack on the spot after finishing the defense. Soon after he grabbed the ball, he returned it to Monaco, which made Monaco continue to launch fast breaks , Sochaux was a little bit overwhelmed, and began to panic.

Although Kilot has formulated a defensive strategy for Sochaux, it is obvious that he is not running enough on offense. As a result, Sochaux can only imitate less than 3% of the skills and power of Monaco's tactical system.

After the panic, Sochaux's defensive efficiency began to decline, so he could only use fouls to make up for the defensive mistakes.

In the 43rd minute of the game, Monaco seized an opportunity to attack with a set kick from the right side of the front court. Merian's free kick was headed into Sochaux's goal by Mongol in the penalty area and opened the scoring for the team!

Situ Yunbing let out a long breath, and then applauded the team's goal.

He is not annoyed at Sochaux's attempt to treat him in his own way. There is no such thing as a "patent" on the football field, and it is more of a case of imitation.

What suits you is the best.

On the contrary, Situ Yunbing was a little proud.

Look, now a team is starting to learn from Monaco!
Isn't it enough to make him proud?

But at any rate, the two armies are now facing each other. Of course, Situ Yunbing does not want the imitator to be better than the blue. Fortunately, Suo Xiao only learned the superficiality but not the essence, and did not pose much threat to Situ Yunbing.

In the second half of the game, Sochaux lost his composure because the score was behind. The price they paid for frequent fouls was that a midfielder was sent off in the 61st minute of the game!

Monaco's lead was expanded in the 72nd minute of the game. Nimani received an inverted triangle pass from Pino in the penalty area, but was kicked to the ground by the Sochaux defender when he was about to take a shot.

Although Merian took the penalty kick and scored it overnight, Situ Yunbing was not happy when Nimani was injured.

Nimani's injured part is his ankle, and he may miss the remaining two league games this year!
This caused Situ Yunbing a lot of headaches. In the first half of the final match, Monaco's opponent was Bordeaux!

In the end, Monaco won Sochaux 2:0 at home, continuing the winning streak!

After being tied by Nancy in the 11th round of the league, Monaco has won 6 consecutive victories in the league!

Situ Yunbing shook hands with Sochaux coach Kilot again after the game. Kilot praised Monaco's performance face to face. He said to Situ Yunbing in English: "We tried to imitate Monaco's style of play, but we couldn't play half of Monaco. I am very disappointed with the result, but it also made me realize how good your job is at Monaco."

Situ Yunbing was caressed by Kilot on the back, and he said humbly: "I am just lucky. I have a group of players who are daring and aggressive. Sometimes the style of play is not the most important thing. What matters is whether the player will give everything to win."

Kilot and Situ Yunbing only exchanged a few words briefly, and then they said their goodbyes in a friendly manner and left.

Because Nimani was injured, Situ Yunbing was full of concealment.

There are not many people available in his hands. Now that the general is injured, he can only hope that the winter break will come soon.

Lyon was defeated by Nantes 2:1 in an away game this round. Monaco continued to expand their lead in the standings!

Bordeaux and Marseille both won the game, and Toulouse drew away. As a result, Lyon not only widened the gap behind Monaco, but also was chased by Marseille and Bordeaux to a small gap.

Monaco, 37 points.

Lyon, 31 points.

Marseille, 30 points.

Bordeaux, 29 points.

Toulouse, 26 points.
