Chapter 654 Approaching the top 4 of the Champions League

The Monaco players who won the victory did not celebrate wildly, but embraced with Dortmund players on the field, and some even exchanged jerseys. Several Monaco players even asked for T-shirts in support of Bartra.

The two sides thanked the stadium together, and the fans in the audience responded with neat shouts and prolonged applause.

At the post-match press conference, Jardim said: "This match will go down in history forever, and people will remember not the result of the match, but the attack that happened yesterday.

Unfortunately, some Dortmund players were injured, and their overall performance was more obviously affected.

Preparing for this game was very difficult, and our players were calling family and friends on Tuesday night to tell us that they were safe, which made it difficult for us to stay focused.

After yesterday's incident, the fans of both teams performed very well today, and both teams also contributed wonderful performances.

The Monaco fans showed a very positive side today, which makes me and my players very proud.

We showed our usual performance in training today, the result is good but we still have a long way to go before qualifying. "

When it was Tuchel's turn to speak, Jardim took the lead in applauding. The German coach first thanked everyone who cared about Dortmund, and then he said: "It's a very strange feeling, it doesn't seem like it's real at all. of.

You have to keep going, trying to help yourself make sense of it all.When the bombing happened, that's when you wanted to help everyone, hug everyone, and want to stay away from the place where the terror hit.

All I can say right now is how I feel, this is the worst day I've ever had.

I've been feeling bad since Wednesday, and now it's even worse.What used to feel like being in a cloud now feels like dangling on a wave. "

There was silence at the press conference, and Tuchel continued: "I think we played very well in the second half, not so well in the first half.

Monaco's first goal came from an offside position, the second goal was an own goal by Bender, and the third goal was an assist from ourselves, it was like we had two own goals and an offside goal.

After half-time, I knew we would get another chance, but unfortunately the game never got on our side.

We put a lot of pressure on the opposition after we pulled one back, but unfortunately couldn't score the second and then we conceded the third.

In the end we only gave the opponent two shots on goal, but conceded three goals, Monaco was very efficient.

The next round will be a tough one.We have to believe in ourselves and give our all.It takes a lot of courage, and we've shown it.

Every player has the right to choose his own way to deal with the bombing attack. My players showed unparalleled willpower in the second half of the game. "

On the bus back to the hotel, Mbappe told everyone: "Ousman (Dembele) told me that last night the club sent them all back to their homes to be with their families.

He also told me that many Dortmund players had only a short sleep yesterday and they were very tired. "

Jardim stood up and said loudly: "Guys, we have defeated a respectable opponent.

This does not mean that we are strong enough. To be precise, they may only have played about half of their strength today.

The next game waiting for us will definitely not be like today! "

……

Li Liang returned to the hotel room and had a phone call with Xiao Yu, then turned on the TV. The other two UEFA Champions League quarter-final matches had just ended, and the match highlights were being broadcast.

The first is Atletico Madrid's home game against Leicester City. Atletico Madrid has taken the absolute initiative from the beginning, constantly launching fierce attacks on the opponent's hinterland.

Atletico Madrid's top star French striker Griezmann personally scored a penalty kick created by himself in the 28th minute of the game, and finally helped the team win at home 1:0.

The other game is what Li Liang is most concerned about.That is the world-renowned Bayern Munich sitting at home against the defending champion Real Madrid who came to challenge.

For Li Liang, this game also has a very special meaning, not just because of the agreement with Ronaldo in the charity match at Stamford Bridge.

More importantly, when Li Liang first started to play for Monaco, he witnessed how Naples easily defeated Monaco at the San Paolo Stadium. The strength of Naples left a deep impression on him.

然而皇马却在欧冠8分之1决赛中以主客场两个3:1总比分6:2轻取那不勒斯，这让李良简直超乎想象。

拜仁就更不用说，同样在对阿森纳的欧冠8分之1决赛中打出了两个惊人的5：1，以创纪录的总比分10:2淘汰了李良最喜爱的阿森纳。

The duel between Bayern and Real Madrid is also regarded as the final staged in advance. This high-level contest, even the highlights, made Li Liang feel thrilling.

In the first half, Benzema received a wonderful pass from former Bayern player Kroos, and Neuer threw his header on the crossbar and almost broke the goal.

Then Bayern midfielder Thiago took a corner kick, and Vidal nodded before Bayern.

At the end of the first half, Carvajal was suspected of blocking Ribery's shot with his arm in the penalty area and was awarded a penalty kick, but Vidal took the penalty and sent the ball flying and missed the opportunity to rewrite the score to 2:0.

At the beginning of the second half, Ronaldo received a cross from Cajawal on the right, and grabbed a point in front of Bayern's Spanish defender Martinez to equalize the score for Real Madrid!This is also Ronaldo's 99th goal in the European war!
Li Liang was amazed when he saw Ronaldo's excellent running and grabbing points in the back defense. He felt that Ronaldo played a completely different kind of football, with terrifying efficiency.

Afterwards, Ronaldo's performance continued. His breakthrough caused Martinez to foul twice, and he received two yellow cards and was sent off with a red card! Seeing this, Li Liang felt that Ronaldo was unstoppable!
In the 77th minute, Real Madrid organized patiently in the frontcourt. Asensio sent a beautiful cross from the left.Subtitles were played on the screen at the same time-this is also Ronaldo's 1th goal in the European war!
In the end, Real Madrid beat Bayern 2:1 away at the Allianz Arena. With two away goals in hand, they were already in an extremely favorable position in the two rounds of the knockout round.

After turning off the TV, Li Liang felt that his heart was still beating very fast.He understood that watching TV was one thing, and a real contest was another entirely.

The thrilling second half he spent in the stands today made him deeply feel Dortmund's powerful attacking power. Li Liang firmly believes that when the Dortmund team returns to normal in a week, they will definitely be able to play a stronger game.

The other 4 teams I saw on TV just now, as well as Juventus and Barcelona I saw yesterday, and the remaining 8 teams in the top 7 all showed very strong strength.

Now Li Liang feels that even if they lead 3:2 and have 3 away goals, it is hard to say that Monaco will definitely be able to overcome Dortmund.

Even if you really succeed in entering the top 4, no matter which opponent you meet, you will definitely encounter unimaginable challenges!
