Chapter 278 Superstar Treatment

In the locker room, Caldeira was explaining the tactical details.

Spignoli quietly walked to Jardim's side and whispered, "Leonardo, come here."

The two walked behind the crowd, and Spignoli's face was solemn: "I'm worried that Li's physical fitness will go wrong..."

Jardim's eyes widened suddenly: "What?
Carlo? !
Didn't you tell me that he can last at least 70 minutes? "

Spignoli spread his hands and explained helplessly: "If you are an ordinary role player, I am afraid that Li's 'competition fitness' will not last for 70 minutes.

But it’s hard to say if you are taken care of by your opponent..."

When the two discussed quietly, Caldeira had already finished the arrangement.

Bakayoko suddenly walked up to Li Liang and said fiercely: "Li, I think you should be tougher!
Opponents will never respect a 'nice man', and you can't always count on us to stand up for you—

You should be more of a 'bad boy'! "

Falcao stood up and spread his hands: "Li is tough enough!
Don't forget that this is his first official game with us! "

Bakayoko laughed: "Well, I just want Lee to be better!

Li, you have to be careful..."

Everyone agrees with Bakayoko——

The big men Kyar, Skrtel, and Sousa, who seem to be more fierce, are actually very "clean" in the confrontation, and they are "against the ball and not against the person".

On the contrary, the little Kebaxi and Tufan had to be really careful.

Jardim came over and clapped his hands to signal everyone to be quiet. He made a new adjustment, let Li Liang's position retreat to strengthen the defense, and at the same time let Germain move to the left side, and Fabinho continued to attack the left side. Protect.

He concluded by saying: "We have to keep putting pressure on them!
In addition, the defense must be strengthened. In the second half, the ball must not be conceded again, and the advantage must be brought back to the home court! "

Before starting the game, Yardim specifically held back Li Liang: "The second half will be more difficult than before. You must keep calm and pay attention to the distribution of physical fitness!"

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Fenerba switched off Diego, who had misfired on the offensive end, and replaced him with a defensive midfielder, the young Turk Saleh Ukan.

The premise of Tufan's position is to face Li Liang.

The Fenerbahçe team, like at the beginning of the first half, began to use high-intensity running and physical confrontation to try to regain the initiative.

Tufan's offensive performance was mediocre, and Li Liang and Fabinho, who were retreating, easily restricted him.

He kept abusing and intimidating Li Liang, spamming non-stop.

Li Liang soon discovered that his opponents treated him much more than just talking trash.

According to the instructions during the half-time break, Li Liang began to reduce the forward penetration, but he found that No. 8 Tufan and the newly replaced No. 48 Wukan have been oppressing him intensively without the ball!
Apart from these two when I got the ball, even Kebashi and Emenek often stepped forward to participate in the siege!

Jardim understood that this was exactly what Spignoli was worried about. Fenerbahce had indeed made special arrangements for Li Liang.

Fenerbahce coach Jardim's compatriot Vitor Pereira is having tense discussions with his assistants.

In the first half of the game, he had already severely questioned his assistants——

Why are there only a few words about this No. 17 in the intelligence gathering before the game! ?

During the intermission, he got the information that the club had just sorted out. Li Liang's unremarkable resume made Pereira shake his head.

Now Tufan and Wukan are doing their best to "drive" No. 17 away from the game according to his instructions.

Pereira and his assistants reached an agreement that other players must continue to cooperate with fierce oppressive defense and high-intensity physical confrontation to consume No. 17.

The Monaco fans in the stands were worried: "Our number 17 has not played such a difficult game, has he?"

"This is by no means an ordinary defense, this is war!"

The eyes of Pereira and his assistants have been watching Monaco No. 17 who is in a hard fight.

Someone exclaimed softly: "...Is this guy so strong?"

"It doesn't matter, if this continues, no one will pass the ball to him!"

Pereira said forcefully: "At least for now, we must always defend him like a superstar --

Leonardo (Yardim) only has one last substitution spot, as long as No. 17 is dragged down, they will be finished! "

Jardim responded quickly, and after shouting in the command area, the Monaco players began to adjust their positions.

Li Liang continued to retreat to the midfielder position, and Germain pulled back to the midfield and the team changed to a 451 defensive formation.

Compared with the defensive counterattack tactics arranged in the pre-match tactics class, the emphasis on defense has begun to be obvious.

Fighting Li Liang was knocked to the ground again by Emenek, and the referee gave a warning to the Nigerian after blowing his whistle.

After being persuaded away from Emenech, Bakayoko and Fabinho stretched out their hands to pull Li Liang up. Bakayoko asked, "Li, are you okay?"

Li Liang stared at Venus, adjusted his breath for a while and forced a smile: "Timoe (Bakayoko), this guy is not as strong as you..."

Jardim asked Fabinho to arrange it on the sidelines. After the game resumed, Monaco's double midfielders began to pay attention to the protection of Li Liang.

Both sides are fighting for Li Liang's position with all their might.

Caldeira was a little anxious: "What if Li can't run anymore?
We only have one substitution left!
...I hope that Li can last at least 80 minutes, and there will be no other accidents on the court..."

Jardim stared at the field without moving.

Monaco's active recovery made Fenerbahce's formation gradually press up again. Monaco's two midfielders in the middle and Li Liang's position made the home team have to use two full-backs to set up assists in turn.

In the 60th minute of the game, Fenerbahce's main attack and the visiting team's counterattack were temporarily balanced.

Jardim, who had been standing in the command area anxiously watching, finally breathed a sigh of relief seeing that Fernando, the air fighter, grabbed several headers during this period but did not pose any threat.

Fenerbahce's right-back van der Wiel once again dribbled in front of Monaco's bench.

Fernando and Emenech withdrew from the penalty area after a very ordinary crossover, driving away Remelson who was defending Emenech.

Emenek quickly moved to the penalty spot, and Van der Veer, who was observing on the right, saw his position and directly kicked a diagonal pass!

Raj and Fabinho in the front point are still moving back. They never thought that Van der Wiel, who had been mediocre throughout the game, would suddenly kick such a world-class pass in a flash of inspiration!

The ball flew over the heads of Raj and Fabinho, Sidibi has already realized the danger!

He rushed in front of Emenek and hadn't made a defensive move. The strong Nigerian rose into the air and shot with a volley side hook almost exactly the same as Falcao!

Li Liang, who just ran into the penalty area, saw clearly that the goalkeeper Badiasil had a quick response and made a save immediately, but he was still unable to catch up with this wonderful world wave.

2:1, Fenerbahce surpassed again!
