Chapter 534 Containment and Anti-Containment
At the end of the first half, Monaco broke out suddenly, forming a siege to Nice's goal.

Although the head coach Favre couldn't help roaring and desperately ordered the players to press out to play, Nice had to retreat across the board under the tide of the home team's offensive.

Monaco failed to break through the opponent's dense defense, and finally ended the first half after a 1-minute supplementary shot.

Xiao Yu was so nervous that he couldn't breathe, Da Xiong smiled and said: "Professional players like us can understand at a glance, Ryoko must have been kicking in the first place.

I don't know what his intention is, anyway, the number 2 marking him is not his opponent at all.

The Nice team is very fierce, the strength of both sides is about 55, it depends on how the coaches of the two midfielders adjust! "

In the locker room of the visiting team, Favre slammed a bottle of water on the ground in a rage, and the splashed water almost fell on everyone.

"It's so stupid, it's completely hopeless!" Although no name was named, everyone knew who the furious head coach was scolding.

Saili lowered his head without saying a word, and he quickly calmed down when he returned to the locker room.

A large part of the reason why the team fell into chaos on the field just now was due to him.

Li Liang's brilliant breakthrough and shooting attracted Saili's attention, and the Ivorian star fell into a fight with Li Liang, causing Nice's midfield to lose control.

Favre has already seen that No. 17 is effectively "dismembering" his team through running and passing.

Nice's dual-core division of labor is actually very clear. Saili controls the offensive and defensive rhythm of the team, and Cyprian is more like a thug, taking on the duties of Saili's bodyguard.

When Seri was taken away from the middle by Li Liang, Cyprian had to fill in, but this also made Nice's defense line lose the most effective guard and barrier.

In Favre's view, Li Liang's running is extremely sharp in tactical intentions. If his team does not make changes, the situation in the second half will be more passive.

There was silence in the locker room. The assistant put the tactical board over, and Favre calmed down and began to arrange it.

The Monaco generals in the home dressing room were still bemoaning the missed opportunity.

Jardim signaled for everyone to be quiet. He had just told his assistants that Li Liang started to direct his teammates to adjust tactics before him, which surprised Caldeira and others.

The Portuguese said: "The recent games are too intensive, everyone has worked hard.

There are still 45 minutes to the goal we set, please show our determination and strength!
I repeat again, there is only one goal in this game, beat them! "

Godino was thinking about all this in the stands, Li Liang at the end of the first half, compared with the video of the game he saw the first time, he was a different person.

From the perspective of a top physical fitness expert, he found that Li Liang's playing style has undergone major changes.

In the previous games, Li Liang's high-profile performances had a common characteristic - he had to control the absolute possession of the ball. When Li Liang was attacking with all his strength, the whole team had to revolve around him in order for him to exert his greatest power.

This will inevitably cause great consumption of other players. In short, the tactics and on-the-spot adjustments formulated by Yardim in the early stage are more like concentrating the energy of the whole team on Li Liang, and Li Liang will personally open the opponent's gap.

Recently, Gaudino found that Li Liang's playing style is slowly undergoing major changes.During most of the game, Li Liang was more like an engine driving the entire team.

Now Li Liang is doing what his teammates did for him before - his efforts can start making them better and stronger too!
The result of this is that the offensive efficiency of the entire team is greatly improved, and everyone's physical energy can be allocated more reasonably invisibly.

This is undoubtedly of greater significance for a team like Monaco that pursues physical and high-speed play.

Different from the dirty old man's perspective, Grimandi also realized Li Liang's great change.

He intuitively found that Li Liang no longer faced all kinds of opponents in almost one style as before.

For example, Li Liang today is very different from when he was at the Parc des Princes. The first feeling for the former Arsenal defender is that Li Liang against Paris was more inclined to attack the goal directly.

Today's Li Liang played more tactically, and seemed to be patiently looking for Nice's weaknesses and exploiting them.

Grimandi looked forward to the second half of the game even more. He wanted to see what level Li Liang could achieve. Can he really succeed in another way?

The second half of the game was about to start, and Favre decisively replaced the winger Esserik with the teenager Kojelo, restoring the formation to 352.

The two teams continued to fight, and Li Liang immediately noticed that Kojelo, who had a total rating of 79, was not a good comer!
The 20-year-old French teenager played extremely well last season and is known as a future midfield star.

Such a small player with a height of only 1 meters is fast, strong, and has outstanding skills at his feet. He is an all-round midfielder with both offensive and defensive skills.

Favre understands that Saili, who has already played brilliantly, will leave the team sooner or later, so he has been consciously focusing on cultivating Kogelo, and regards the latter as the next midfielder core of the Nice team.

The deployment of Kojello now is extremely targeted, just as Favre told Kojello separately before he came on the field: "Vincent (Kojello), go and replace Saili and help us get the midfielder back!"

Li Liang has already discovered the huge change in Nice's midfield. Cyprian, who had been gradually quiet in the first half, suddenly broke out and began to sweep the midfield almost everywhere, while Kojelo gradually took control with the assistance of his teammates. The overall rhythm of the team.

Jardim hesitated. Like in the first round, Nice piled up 3 central midfielders with organizational skills in the midfield, which allowed Monaco's offensive to be quickly contained. Correspondingly, the visiting team resumed their occupation. Active on the pitch.

Kluivert finally breathed a sigh of relief.His opinion is the same as everyone else's. If it continues as in the first half, Monaco will have a high chance of scoring 3 points, which is the most unfavorable situation for Paris.

Now the visiting team successfully stopped the decline and began to rebound strongly, which gave the Dutch hope again.

As the sports director of Greater Paris, Kluivert does not support many decisions of Chairman Nasser.

At the beginning of the season, the Dutch resolutely refused to agree to buy David Luiz back to Chelsea, but at the request of Nasser's tribute, he had to agree to the transfer application of "Pumpong" at the last moment.

Now Nasser arranges himself to inspect Monaco's No. 17 in person, which makes Kluivert quite dissatisfied.

He has always believed that Li Liang's high-profile performance will become short-lived sooner or later, and from a competitive point of view, Paris has already accumulated too many midfielders, and even his most promising Portuguese genius Guedes cannot enter the rotation. Why bother? To be so attached to Li Liang?
Seeing that Li Liang could not take any advantage in the confrontation in the midfield, Kluivert secretly hoped that Nice could show a better performance, so as to prove to Nasser that No. 17 is not suitable for Paris.

Xiao Yu suddenly realized that Daxiong also became nervous.

Big Bear said to her: "When we play football, we are most afraid of the little one like No. 6 (Sai ​​Li), it is very terrible!
Xiao Yu, remember that anyone who can compete at a high level with such a small man is definitely not good at it!

Now there is another No. 26 (Kojelo), and now Ryoko is in trouble! "

Xiao Yu asked nervously: "Then what should I do? I think Monaco is starting to be passive again."

Da Xiong replied seriously: "This is how the game is, both sides fight wits and courage to contain and counter-contain.

Ryoko is the core of Monaco's frontcourt, he must stand up again at this time, otherwise this game will be lost!"

Xiao Yu cast her eyes on Li Liang, and Li Liang took the same initiative to retreat as at the beginning of the game.

This time it wasn't his intention, but was beaten back by Nice's midfielder.
