Chapter 557 Your Uncle!

After scoring the goal, Stones was ecstatic. He raised his arms and roared, then suddenly remembered something, turned around and rushed towards Li Liang, muttering words at the same time.

Toure, who contributed a wonderful assist, hugged the extremely excited Stones, and soon other Manchester City players also swarmed up. This made Stones' attempt to provoke Li Liang again unsuccessful, and he continued in Li Liang's direction. Stop yelling.

The noise of the fans at the scene made Li Liang unable to hear what Stones was saying. It seemed that he was still repeating "loser!" over and over again.

"Your uncle!" Li Liang cursed bitterly, feeling extremely angry inside.

Manchester City's cooperation with this ball is extremely proficient, and it has gone through repeated drills at first glance, but the most critical thing is De Bruyne who took the corner kick.

This corner kick is like a precision-guided missile. The arc, strength, and speed of the ball are all just right. Under the cover of his teammates, Toure only needs to grab the front point and the rest of the work is very simple.

Aguero helped Manchester City open up the situation. Seeing that Monaco was about to come from behind, another top star of Manchester City, De Bruyne, stepped forward in time.

Jardim was stunned. Losing the ball with such a defense made him feel extremely depressed when the situation was very good. It was like a blow to the head!
Guardiola scratched his bald head from the sidelines. Although the progress of the game was quite different from what he expected, fortunately, taking the lead again greatly relieved the pressure on the team.

He didn't hesitate any longer, and replaced Fernandinho with the authentic right-back Zabaleta, and changed Sagna to the left.

When he was at Arsenal, Sagna was known for his versatility, and he even played as a central defender.Although his ability is declining with age, Guardiola believes that his defense on the wing must be better than Bird.

Dalk said: "Football is so wonderful. It seems that Monaco has fully started and won a penalty kick. Unfortunately, the penalty kick was not scored, but Manchester City seized the opportunity to overtake the score."

Lampard continued: "That's right. Manchester City has more than De Bruyne, a set-piece master, and David Silva's left foot is also very good. These masters can make them play a lot when they set the ball. Interesting tactic."

Adams was a little disappointed, Henry and Beckham also said it was a pity!Being scored by an opponent at a time of momentum is definitely an extremely severe test for Li Liang.

Godino in front of the TV also let out a long sigh. This goal made Li Liang’s previous efforts come to naught. He believed that a top coach like Guardiola would definitely adjust his defense. Monaco wanted to create the same good as before. Opportunity may be even more difficult.

All the men of Dongzi's family fell into a long silence. Li Liang's performance was excellent, but it seemed that he could not avoid the fate of failure in front of the mighty Manchester City.

……

Until now, the progress of the game has exceeded 3/2, and Li Liang's observation of Manchester City's tactics has become more and more clear.

He finally saw that Manchester City's defense was not impenetrable under the cover of a luxurious attack line, and he firmly believed that his team must still have a chance!
After the re-kick-off, to the surprise of many, led by Li Liang, Monaco's offensive firepower became more intense.

Zabaleta and Sagna are not good at speed, and they pay more attention to pre-selection when defending. They are obviously overwhelmed by the successive attacks of Silva and Mbappé.

In such a situation, coupled with Li Liang's organization and reinforcements on both sides, and his frequent passing of Sidiby and Mendy, Manchester City's midfielder had to strengthen the protection of both sides.

This made Guardiola even more nervous. Li Liang constantly refreshed the knowledge of the Manchester City coach on the field, and now he has seen Li Liang's intentions.

Just as he was about to make adjustments when he walked to the sidelines, Li Liang launched an attack again.

He patiently reversed his feet with his teammates on the right, and used the pass to connect all the players on the right.The Manchester City players dare not neglect at all. In addition to Sagna and Sane, De Bruyne and David Silva are all standing on this side to assist in the defense.

Guardiola has already waved his hands and shouted: "John (Stones), Nicholas (Otamendi) press out!"

Because he saw a dangerous gap between the central midfielder Toure and the two central defenders!
Li Liang has already captured this fleeting opportunity. He made a gesture to make a diagonal pass to Bernardo Silva who was thrusting along the sideline. Sane quickly jumped up to block it. Li Liang quickly changed his movements and kicked the ball back. Immediately in front of the body cut inward to the middle.

Toure immediately rushed forward, and the two central defenders behind him noticed the large open area left behind him at the same time, and pressed out simultaneously.

Mbappe broke out suddenly and accelerated from the left side of the frontcourt. Li Liang saw the timing was right and quickly sent a beautiful long pass with his left foot. In the middle of Bape!
Mbappe's astonishing speed did not disappoint Li Liang, and he had caught up with the ball in an instant!Falcao also detoured from the offside position to the front of the penalty area, standing in a position parallel to the trailing Otamendi and waiting for an opportunity to plug in!

The tiger's smart movement put Manchester City's defense in an extremely dangerous situation. Mbappe stepped out of the ball without hesitation and accelerated towards the gap between Otamendi and Stones. Otamendi was afraid of the tiger beside him. , Stones has fallen into a dangerous one-on-one with Mbappe.

Mbappe made a fake move of stepping on a bicycle while running at high speed. The tall Stones did not dare to act rashly and kept backing sideways.

After flashing enough angles, Mbappe decisively took a low shot. Fortunately, Caballero concentrated and blocked Mbappe's shot with his legs in time!

The whole audience exclaimed, and the home audience nervously saw that the danger had not been lifted.The ball bounced into the air, Stones desperately pushed the ball out of the penalty area, and a red and white figure was striding towards the ball!
It's Li Liang!He stood out from the midfielder with his amazing prediction, and rushed to the ball's landing point by himself!

Mbappe, who fell to the ground after a forced shot, Tiger, who was fighting for a position with Otamendi, and other Monaco players held their breath.

Stones roared and charged towards Li Liang, and his shouts revealed more fear—Li Liang had already started to adjust his pace and prepare to shoot.

Guardiola almost suffocated, the ball was less than 25 meters away from the goal, completely within the range of No. 17's favorite shot!
Monaco's bench had already run wild, and everyone was shouting desperately to cheer for Li Liang.

The exclamation of the home fans has reached the highest level. Dalk and Lampard in the commentary also shouted at the same time, and Ghazi and Mou Zhaoge in the press box also shouted.

Xiao Yu and Ta Long had already stood up and screamed desperately - when they saw Li Liang, they would definitely grab the spot before Stones!

Mourinho and Mendes stood up, Adams, Henry and Beckham all stood up too!

Godino, Dongzi’s Li Liang’s friends, all shouted together with He Wei and Xue Yang on TV——

Countless pairs of eyes focused on Li Liang, all looking forward to his final blow at this moment——

Li Liang completely ignored Stones who was rushing towards him. He focused on the falling ball, adjusted his breathing and pace, and at the moment the ball bounced off the ground, he quickly pulled out a powerful rebound ball with his right foot!
Stones had already closed his eyes and was ready for a collision. He heard a "bang" and felt the ball hit his arm in front of him, and then collided heavily with Li Liang!
Li Liang and Stones fell to the ground at the same time. Regardless of the pain, he kept watching the trajectory of the ball that had changed course.

The ball slowed down significantly, drawing a high arc and hoisting towards the goal.

Falcao, Otamendi and Caballero rushed to the goal at the same time, and finally Caballero punched the ball before the tiger who jumped high and tried to head the ball.

Zabaleta, who returned to the penalty area, was stunned to see that Mbappe, who had just got up from the turf a second before, started like lightning, and caught up with the ball that had not been hit far in just a few steps. In the case of marking, he steadily scored the ball into the empty goal!

Caballero and Otamendi who fell to the ground, Stones who just stood up, and Zabaleta who was standing in the penalty area like a wooden stake all showed stunned expressions.

Including Subasic, all the players on the Monaco field ran towards Mbappe who scored the goal!

Of course, Li Liang, their offensive core, is indispensable!
