Green Ace Marshal

There was no shocking cheering atmosphere at the Louis II Stadium. Most of the fans in the stands watched the game calmly, and the rhythm of the game was not tepid.

Situ Yunbing stood on the sidelines for a long time with a serious expression, and from time to time he pointed to the open space on the court, reminding the players to move or pass the ball.

The Monaco team had a good start to the game.

Merian and Diego Perez, assisted by Simic and Muratori, quickly and fluently cooperated in the midfield and frontcourt.

Lorient's entire team is concentrated in the middle and backcourt area to set up a defensive formation waiting for the impact of Monaco.

If there is anything that makes Situ Yunbing dissatisfied, it is the striker.

Although Park Zhouyong's running is active, he always tries to fight alone after receiving a match. The same is true for Adu. Even though Adu's technical ability does seem to have some advantages, he often sends an aimless cross from the side. The ball, or a strong rush to an opponent, will be successfully stolen by a second defender.

Without the ability to defy the sky, if you have to do something against the sky, isn’t this just looking for death yourself?

Old Gourcuff sat on the coach's bench with cautious vigilance in his eyes.

He can't understand Monaco's playing style for the time being.

Fly on both wings?

Monaco only occasionally played a dozen wing attacks.

Mid lane penetration?

Merian pays too much attention to pass scheduling, and obviously lacks forward thrusts.

There is neither a particularly skilled team to cooperate with local passing and cutting, nor does it focus on creating a breakthrough for an offensive dominant player.

Even Monaco's shot was barely visible!

Lorient came to the road to play defensive counterattack with peace of mind.

They treated the game rigorously in the opening stage and did not take the initiative to speed up the rhythm. They also wanted to see Monaco's state and play characteristics.

As a result, Monaco showed some characteristics of focusing on short passing coordination in the first 20 minutes of the game, but there were no bright spots.

Old Gourcuff couldn't help but look at Situ Yunbing a few more times. Is this young coach from China really a rookie?

You must know that in the process of frequent short passes and cooperation, Monaco's team formation is slowly pressing up. This situation is very common in the game, but generally the side that presses the attack will make threats. Only when there is a threat will the pressure on the opponent's defense line be increased. Under the circumstances, there may be problems with man-marking, mistakes may be made, and more importantly, it will be difficult for the opponent to organize attacks.

But Monaco's midfield is clearly out of touch.

Merian, Perez, and the full-backs Muratori and Simic who came up with assists have a strong sense of cooperation. As a result, the three forwards Kokata, Park Zhouyong, and Adu either did it alone after they had the ball, or it was simple and clear. Seek cooperation among striker teammates.

The offensive intention is too clear at a glance, and the Lorient defense is naturally extremely easy to defend.

Situ Yunbing naturally found that the team's offense was not threatening, but he thought it was normal. After all, the team needed a process of actual combat.

After this running-in period has passed, and after getting better, he firmly believes that Monaco can play a magnificent offensive!

Ligue 1 football is a Latin style of football that does not play as high as England, but also lacks the highly rigorous tactical discipline of Serie A.

Lorient also insists on the ground attack, but the attack is not very aggressive, and at the same time there is no relatively good attacking midfielder, so the attack looks fast and fierce, but it does not create a threat to the Monaco defense line.

The entire first half of the game almost ended in the process of Lorient's sporadic counterattacks and the constant repetition of the Monaco striker's setback at the front of the opponent's penalty area.

Situ Yunbing turned and walked into the player tunnel when the whistle sounded at the end of the first half.

The Monaco fans in the stands were disillusioned, they couldn't see how much Monaco had changed,

It may also feel that Monaco lacks the spirit of the first four league games.

The team's midfield did not know what to do, passing a lot, but not threatening.

But the score is 0:0, and they have no reason to express their inner dissatisfaction.

In the royal box, Debondan watched the game with Prince Albert, and the two almost fell asleep.

During the intermission, I didn't know how to communicate the experience of watching the game. Monaco really didn't give people a bright change.

Can only hope the team's performance in the second half doesn't let them down.

Situ Yunbing gave a lecture immediately after returning to the locker room.

He bluntly criticized the striker's performance!

You are fighting alone like that, your eyes can only see the front, and you don't look back at the teammates who came up behind you, so do you want the opponent to open the door directly for you to score?

I've said it many times in training, pass the ball more, the striker will pass back when there is no obvious opportunity, and then the midfield will move the attack, the striker on the other side can try to go forward or cut inside, we have to contain Opponent, let the opponent not understand our true offensive intentions!

Except for Situ Yunbing, everyone in the locker room remained silent.

In the face of Situ Yunbing's reprimands, Adu, Park Zhouyong, and Kekata looked displeased, but they didn't provoke them.

On the contrary, players such as Merian and Perez who were active in the first half but did not create much substantial threat were thoughtful.

They could feel it in the forward drive after many shots in the first half. If the forward teammates can pass the ball back, then the change and threat generated by the attack will be another vast world.

Situ Yunbing's tactical concept is effective.

But this requires the entire team of 11 people to have the same idea and maintain a high degree of consistency in their actions on the field!

It's hard, but if you can do it, then the prospect is worth looking forward to!

Situ Yunbing then asked the team to increase the rhythm in the second half, speed up the passing speed, and at the same time asked Merian to increase the frequency of sending threatening balls.

After he made the midfield adjustment, Situ Yunbing once again said something to boost morale, but whether it worked or not, I don't know.

In the second half, the players of the two teams returned to the court to change sides and fight again.

Situ Yunbing was still standing in a dignified manner to supervise the battle.

He thought that after the run-in in the first half, the team's performance in the second half would definitely be better!

Monaco did speed up the attacking rhythm in the early part of the second half, setting off a climax of the mad attack within 5 minutes!

But the striker is not strong. Adu and Cokata each had a shot in the penalty area and failed to hit the goal, but Park Zhouyong was at a disadvantage in the confrontation. The two central defenders of Lorient are both black players. Defending Park Joo Young is like bullying a child.

Situ Yunbing was missing a good opportunity for the team, and there were several times when Merian and Simic sent the threatening ball forward and moved forward slowly to delay the fighter, but Lorient was brewing a shocking counterattack!
