i don't want to be king

Chapter 642
Looking at the young backup central defender who was promoted from the reserve team to the first team with a tense face on the bench, Emery missed another Brazilian central defender Marquinhos who was absent due to injury.

The accidental injury of his sister-in-law made Emery completely confused. His first thought was to let the veteran Motta retreat and Kim Pompey to partner with the central defender. After some struggles, he decided that the Belgian Murny who is better at playing right back Yeah go out and put out the fire.

After all, Motta's speed is too far behind Monaco's attackers. It is difficult to cover the 30-meter area as effectively as his sister-in-law.

Meunier has a height of 1 meters. His strength, speed, frontal interception ability and foot skills are all excellent among defenders. The Belgian has also played as a central defender in previous games, and the effect is not bad.

Compared with letting other players comeo or sending young players, Emery chose Meunier in desperation.

Under the standing ovation of the Parisian fans who occupied more than half of the stadium, the sister-in-law was helped off the court.Seeing that the Belgian replaced her, the sister-in-law also looked helpless.

His thighs have been wrapped with thick ice packs, and with the help of teammate Brazil fellow substitute left back Maxwell, he made it to the seat.

The sister-in-law was so angry that she slammed the shin guard in her hand to the ground!

Veteran Maxwell asked with concern: "Thiago, calm down!

This is the final, and everyone is watching you! "

The sister-in-law covered her face with her hands and whispered, "Damn...

Thomas (Meunier) is very difficult to deal with that guy..."

His worries are exactly the same as Emery's. Meunier's top-notch physical condition is fully capable of playing any position on the defense line, but the Belgian big man has a fatal flaw in playing central defenders-his man-to-man defensive awareness and ability are not even as good as Junior Kim Pompeii.

Emery's response was to let Verratti's position continue to retreat, and at the cost of sacrificing the midfield attack, he strengthened the marking of Li Liang.

Tang Meng was still trying to analyze exactly how many times Li Liang used fake moves when he tried to break through his sister-in-law just now. Lu Yue continued, "Although this breakthrough was blocked by Thiago Silva, , but the captain of Paris was unfortunately injured during a tackle and had to end.

This is an accident, but it must have a very significant impact on the next game.

The departure of the rear core will cause a complete change in the overall defense of Paris. Facing the rising attack line of Monaco, this is by no means a good thing. "

Seeing the unexpected substitution in Paris, Jardim and his assistants could hardly believe their eyes!
If it is said that Paris had the right time, place and people in the first half, then starting from another 45 minutes, the balance of fate is tilting towards Monaco more and more!

Caldeira widened his eyes and asked, "Leonardo, what did Lee say to you outside the locker room?!"

Jardim's mood and expression became more and more relaxed, he put his arm around Caldeira's shoulder and said: "He asked to play and told me that he can definitely change the result of this game!
He also told me that he had made up his mind to play in another way—"

Watching the wonderful replay on the big screen, Grimandi said unsatisfactorily: "Li is really the most improved player I have ever seen!

Last time at the Parc des Princes, he lost all his one-on-ones against Thiago Silva.

The breakthrough and cross just now were at least a tie, if Thiago hadn't defended like that, maybe he wouldn't have been injured..."

"But Kylian (Mbappe) has already run out of the gap. With Lee's ability, he will definitely be able to pass the ball to Kylian's feet. In that case, Paris will be in danger!" Gard continued.

Grimandi nodded: "Yes. Facing Li's continuous attacks, a central defender of Thiago's level has fought so hard. The rest of the time...something is very likely to happen!"

Nasser, the chairman of Paris in the front row, stared intently at the replay on the big screen, and slightly turned sideways to the vice chairman of Monaco and said: "Vadim, how much do you need to get this Li?"

Vasilyev grinned: "I'm sorry, sir.

Let me reiterate that Lee is the cornerstone of our team for at least the next five years, and his value is immeasurable.

For Monaco he is undoubtedly not for sale. "

Nasser also laughed, he was very familiar with the standard Russian businessman's answer.

He knew that Monaco did not have a real "not for sale", as long as the price was high enough, anyone could be pushed to the transfer market.

A player who can negotiate a specific price shows that the Russians have already made a specific estimate of the market value of such a player.

Players who are labeled as "not for sale" must still be up for sale. The shrewd Vasilyev is nothing more than waiting for the best opportunity and a higher offer.

Nasser put away his smile: "Vadim, our quotations are all sincere, not just Li.

I hope that we can continue to cooperate happily in the summer. "

Vasilyev replied happily: "There is no problem at all, Your Excellency, my door is always open to you!"

Their conversation was immediately interrupted by loud shouts around them. Li Liang and Lemar, after continuous cooperation on the field, attacked the Paris penalty area again from almost the same position as before.

Under the attack of Rabiot and Verratti, Li Liang quickly returned the ball to Moutinho, who passed the ball to Lemar.

This time Paris right back Aurier appeared next to Lemar in time, and Lemar saw that he could not break through and began to dribble back.

Mendy put on in time, and Lemar suddenly changed direction and passed the ball back to Li Liang at the moment when the angel chasing Mendy coincided with Aurier.

Li Liang pretended to continue to play the ball to the left, but he seemed a little flustered in the face of Mendy and Aurier, who were chasing and defending angels, and was completely left behind by Mendy!

Standing in front of Li Liang, Meunier habitually stretched his legs to block Li Liang's pass - the first choice in his mind was to protect the wing!

Li Liang didn't hesitate at all. Surrounded by Verratti and Rabiot on his side and behind, Li Liang shrewdly slipped the ball straight into the penalty area from the gap on Meunier's left side!

Amidst the louder exclamations and screams, Mbappe slapped his horse and rushed to Kim Pompeii, who was leaning sideways behind him, fell to the ground and poked the ball with his toes!
His toes changed the direction of the ball—

The ball moved quickly against the turf, and rolled past Trapp, who had rushed out of the small penalty area and made a standard one-legged squat and two-handed ball movement!
Li Liang saw across Meunier that Paris' left back Kurzawa desperately chased the ball and made a tackle. However, the ball was too fast and Kurzawa hit the ball, but he dribbled the ball into the net. nest!

For the first time, the cheers of the Monaco fans overwhelmed their opponents. They cheered and released their excitement to the fullest, while the Paris fans were silent.All eyes were on the Monaco players rushing towards the goal to pick it up.

In the 75th minute, Monaco replicated almost the same attacking routine at almost the same location. The difference was that this time Li Liang's pass finally tore through Paris' defense.
Less than 5 minutes after the sister-in-law left the field, Monaco seized the opportunity and successfully closed the score to 2:3!
