i don't want to be king

Chapter 331 A [-]% Head-to-Head Confrontation!
The Louis II stadium was boiling like never before, and every home audience was waving their arms and jumping and shouting indulgently.

The teammates excitedly surrounded Fabinho to celebrate, and Jardim also gave a happy high-five to the assistants.

The players in Paris were dazed and frustrated. Only Motta walked up to Luiz to question something, and the latter remained motionless.

Emery stood there for a few seconds, lowered his head helplessly and returned to the coach's bench to sit down. His shirt was soaked with sweat, but he still didn't intend to take off his coat.

Tang Meng and Lu Yue in the studio agreed that Monaco had seen the dawn of victory.

Lu Yue analyzed: "With the advantage of two goals, Monaco can continue to play and counterattack with peace of mind.

Judging from the situation on the court, it is quite difficult for Paris to chase two goals in a row.

Speaking of this, I still want to praise Li Liang.After opening the scoring, he stepped forward when the team was most passive, created and personally took this high-quality free kick, and this goal can also be inseparable from him. "

Tang Meng said: "Li Liang's free throw posture just now resembles David Beckham very much!

And like Beckham, he created a huge threat through his footwork. "

The opinions of netizens are basically the same. In addition to praising Li Liang, most of them are amazed at Li Liang's free kick:

"Is this imitating Beckham?"

"Didn't you say that ordinary people can't be imitated? It's easy to sprain your ankle!"

"Stupid, who still thinks that Li 17 is an ordinary person?"

"It really looks like Beckham..."

……

With stoppage time, the remainder of the first half passed quickly.

As soon as the referee blew the half-time whistle, Spignoli went directly to the court and hugged Li Liang's shoulder happily: "Li, how do you feel? Is there any physical problem?"

Li Liang replied: "I feel fine, there is no problem at all!"

——In the visiting team's locker room, Emery resisted the urge to throw things and yell, and he tried to calm himself down.

Although his face was ugly, he still analyzed two conceded goals on the tactical board...

Emery did not ask for a return to the 4231 style of play he advocated. At the moment of the crisis, the big names put away all their rebelliousness and finally became unified. Everyone was unwilling to leave the Louis II Stadium with a disastrous defeat.

It was time for the half-time break. Seeing the Paris players walked out of the player channel first, the Paris fans at Cape Delle regrouped and began to shout loudly.

Soon their momentum was completely covered by the Monaco fans, because the home team players followed closely behind.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Li Liang found that Paris' midfield position had changed greatly.

Motta retreated to the defense line, and Kurzawa and Aurier on both sides moved forward significantly.

Paris has also changed to a 3-back formation. The difference is that they have adopted a very aggressive 3421 position, and the connection between the three lines is also more compact.

Emery's daring adventure paid off immediately!In the 48th minute, Di Maria and Aurier broke through to the bottom line and made a cross after a wonderful cooperation. Cavani nodded and was confiscated by Subasic, who was positioned accurately.

Immediately afterwards, Lucas Jr. made another attack on the left. He broke through the defense and then made a quick cross.

Emery first put his head in his hands, and then applauded vigorously on the field: "Very good, just play like this!"

The offense has gradually improved. Paris also changed its strategy on defense. In response to Li Liang and Silva's frequent cross-changes, Emery used Kurzawa and Aurier, who are superior in speed and body, to defend Li Liang in turn.

This change immediately had a miraculous effect, and Li Liang's performance against the more mobile opponent was immediately restricted.

Caldeira reminded Jardim: "If Lee can't play the offense just now, he will only become a weak link in our defense if he stays on the court."

Jardim did not respond to the assistant, but got up and came to the command area, shouting to signal the players to adjust their positions and temporarily withdraw, and to do their best to defend as in the first half.

Then he turned his head and shouted to Caldeira: "Carlo, let all the substitutes start warming up!"

Tang Meng in the studio looked at the time: "Li Liang should be replaced soon.

His physical fitness is currently unable to last the full field, and usually there will be a significant decline in physical fitness in less than 60 minutes. "

Lu Yue shared his point of view: "Li Liang started today, completely playing the role of a surprise soldier.

He has shown his level on the court, and now it can be said that he is indeed a well-deserved starting-level player for a strong Ligue [-] team.

Let me refresh the stats - 1 shot on target, 1 goal, 29 passes 26 successful, 1 tackle, 2 violations - that's a lot considering his playing time data! "

……

After competing with two monsters whose bodies had reached the level of "beasts" - Kurzawa and Olier, Li Liang realized that it was simply too difficult to get rid of opponents of this level.

But after several losses, it was not without gains. He quickly saw that the defensive habits of these two opponents, such as running and blocking, were very different from opponents like Luis, Motta and Rabiot.

It is indeed Emery's helpless move to let two full-backs who are good at offense move forward to mark the opponent's attacking midfielder No. 17.

None of his starting three midfielders has speed. Facing No. 17, who runs in a wide range and has a certain speed, his athletic ability is not dominant.

——Li Liang has seen that both Aurier and Kurzawa like to put pressure on their right side, trying to force themselves to develop in the direction of the reverse foot.

The defensive focus of these two is to prevent their own breakthroughs, but they did not exert the same pressure on their own passes.

Li Liang understands that this is a typical defensive habit of a fullback, and the opponent has a clear purpose and focuses on restricting his forward breakthrough.

Li Liang began to retreat frequently, using the cover of his teammates and his own long pass to continue connecting the whole team in the backcourt.

Olier and Kurzawa immediately discovered the huge risk-No. 17 has the ability to accurately send the ball to the frontcourt, and without the protection of the wings, the three central defenders of the team are under great threat!
Kurzawa and Aurier had to give up the full-court press on Li Liang, and only started marking when he pressed the center line.

Emery gritted his teeth, and his assistant Cacedo exclaimed: "This guy has guessed our tactical change!
How could he read the game like that? "

Tottenham coach Pochettino in the stands, as a former Paris Saint-Germain player, has always been concerned about the situation of his old club.

He said to his assistant: "Unai Emery's transformation of Paris is obviously not complete, are they still a whole?
I think they only played 6% of their strength at most, and Monaco played above the standard! "

The assistant nodded and pointed to Li Liang: "No. 17 is really great. Paris has never formed an effective team defense in front of him."

Pochettino replied: "Don't worry, this cannot happen again in two weeks' time."

In the 60th minute of the game, Paris' offense still dominated, but Monaco counterattacked with high quality from time to time in its full defense.

Jardim called the veteran Moutinho and began to arrange it.

There was a huge cheer from the stands, Jardim stopped and Moutinho turned their eyes to the field.

Di Maria's breakthrough was defended by Mendy and Bakayoko, and the ball was quickly transferred to Fabinho on the right.

Li Liangxin understood that he would immediately cut in at a high speed from the center circle to the right, and Kurzawa greeted him without hesitation.

After crossing the center line, Li Liang suddenly changed direction and rushed to the center of the forward field. Sidibi also slammed in from the left at high speed!
Verratti stepped forward to press quickly, Fabinho did not wait for him to step forward and returned the ball to Bakayoko, who immediately passed the ball straight to Silva on the left without pausing.

Rabiot quickly turned to the left to defend Silva with Aurier, and Di Maria also began to return to the defense at high speed.

Emery exclaimed from the sidelines: "Don't go up, David!"

——But it was too late, Louis rushed towards Li Liang as if his eyes were spitting fire!

Silva started to slow down after attracting the three defenders, saw the right moment and hit Li Liang directly.

Louis sprinted at full speed, Li Liang and Sidibi had already formed a 2-on-2 against him and Kurzawa on the right side of the frontcourt!

After rushing all the way in front of Li Liang, Louis began to slow down forcibly. Li Liang faced Louis desperately to grab the ball, and almost made the move of stabbing the ball and passing the ball——

Amidst the screams in the stands, the two almost collided!

Li Liang and Louis raised their hands at the same time, and under the confrontation, Louis, who had an absolute advantage in strength, squeezed over!
Li Liang used all his strength to quickly adjust his body posture, and pulled the ball back with the soles of his feet like lightning.

Amidst the exclamation, everyone saw that No. 17 was struggling to protect the ball with his back, and the cheers sounded again.

Li Liang on the field felt that his chances were getting slimmer. Facing a frontal interception by a central defender of this level, his chances of winning were close to zero!

He had just finished continuous high-speed sprinting and changing direction, and he already felt his left calf tightening, and the familiar symptoms of cramping became more and more intense, but he still didn't want to give up——Li Liang probably thought that Louis this time I won't lose one-on-one again, and I have slowed down, and Sidibi behind me ran into a very good position to respond!
However, Louis completely blocked the angle of the ball between himself and Sidibi!
Li Liang gritted his teeth hard, and Louis was still pressing forward step by step——

Li Liang accelerated and took two steps back, ignoring the more and more painful muscles, he completed the cross step and then turned around!

The stands were still cheering, and Louis was highly vigilant when he saw that Li Liang had finished his turn and did not rush again. He knew that No. 17 had [-]% chosen to confront him head-on again!
