Greenery Reverses The Madness

Ligue 1's final battle of this season is clear from the beginning of the game.

Paris Saint-Germain dominated the field, although they failed to play the fast-paced and crazy offensive that people expected.

After two or three waves of Paris Saint-Germain offensive, Monaco can almost organize a counterattack.

In the 6th minute of the game, Lavezzi dribbled inside from the left, Kurzava and Toulalan blocked the inside line, and the Monaco defense basically let go of the outside line, trying to ensure that the inside line and the center line were not penetrated as much as possible.

If Paris Saint-Germain does not have local pressure, it may not be able to play an excellent opportunity.

Ravitch's long-range shot from outside the penalty area, although well-angled, gave Subasic more time to react and easily confiscated the ball at the right post.

Monaco, which defends in the area, also has a tactical arrangement of fixed-point blockades.

Carvalho and Raj controlled Ibrahimovic.

Abidal blocked Lucas, and Ye Yifeng assisted in the defense.

Kurzawa teams up with Turlalan to control Ravic's threat.

Kondogbia guards the front center of the penalty area, mainly marking Verratti, guarding against the turns of Matuidi and Motta, and Moutinho and Ye Yifeng assisting in defense.

The striker who can bring more support to the defense is Ye Yifeng. He is more flexible, playing by ear in the left half of the backcourt to defend with his teammates.

James Rodriguez was the pivot in Monaco's counterattack, and Riviere formed the fulcrum in the striker's attack.

If the counterattack can continue the offensive in the frontcourt, then Ye Yifeng must follow up in the back row!

Ye Yifeng, who belonged to the second echelon in the offense after the opening game but returned to the first echelon in defense, ran faster than ever before and covered a wide range of areas.

Almost every time Paris Saint-Germain's offense hits the frontcourt, he can contribute to the local defense, pressing, assisting the defense, and cutting off the short pass line combined by the opponent's side.

Compared with a year ago, when he was defensively focused on killing opponents who had the ball, now he has the habit of observing the situation on the field, which is an essential ability for an excellent midfielder to play.

In the 13th minute of the game, although Ibrahimovic controlled the ball in the penalty area, he forcibly pulled the ball and turned around under Raj's confrontation, but Carvalho directly destroyed the ball.

Toulalan poked the ball to Moutinho from outside the penalty area before Verratti, who controlled the rhythm and made a short pass to the left.

Ye Yifeng took advantage of the trend to follow up the ball and moved forward, and when he was three meters away from Motta, he decisively passed the ball diagonally to the right side of the front court.

It not only bought time for James Rodriguez to move, but also passed the ball accurately.

After Ye Yifeng took the ball, he quickly ran forward. Motta couldn't keep up with him.

James Rodriguez dribbled on the right side of the front court and advanced to the dangerous zone of attack. Maxwell in front and Matuidi who killed from the side and rear were about to complete the pincer attack on him.

James Rodriguez passed the ball obliquely to the middle of the penalty area at a critical moment.

The retreat of Paris Saint-Germain's defense was calm and orderly, and Silva and Alex kept close contact with the two Brazilian central defenders to mark Riviere.

However, Riviere did not rush forward after receiving the pass from James Rodriguez, but held the ball on the spot. When Alex stepped forward to fight the press, he knocked the ball back diagonally.

At this time, Ye Yifeng directly cut in from the wing and took the lead. Although Van der Veer was freed from the follow-up defense in the next step, he was not completely thrown away.

When Ye Yifeng rushed to the football, he observed that Silva blocked the way ahead, James Rodriguez cut inside but was entangled by Maxwell, and Matuidi came towards him.

If he holds the ball and breaks through, basically there is no room for three-sided attacks.

So he kicked decisively and slammed the door directly!

25 yards away from the goal, the football blasted by him flew straight to the lower left of the center of the goal like a cannonball.

Goalkeeper Sirigu moved two steps, then lowered his center of gravity and knelt down in front of the goal line with his arms tightly holding the ball in his arms.

call.

This long-range shot has enough power, but the angle is not tricky enough.

Monaco fans continued to cheer for the team.

The game goes back and forth, and Paris Saint-Germain will create more opportunities in terms of the probability of having an advantage. Whether it can create excellent opportunities depends on the specific performance.

It is difficult for Monaco's counterattack threat to break through Paris Saint-Germain's back line and form a killing opportunity to face the goalkeeper.

Paris Saint-Germain's slow play to shape the situation will not let the defense fall into the danger of being singled out by Monaco in a sprint.

Ye Yifeng attacks in the frontcourt and defends in the backcourt. He runs non-stop and performs at both ends. He is the most active player in the Monaco team.

But there was no threat of Monaco fighting back.

Paris Saint-Germain took turns trying to mix and match long-range shots and deliver threatening balls into the penalty area.

Motta and Matuidi's long-range shots are basically luck. It is difficult for Verratti to have a chance to kick. If he goes forward and enters the penalty area, no one can send a wonderful pass.

Lavezzi and Lucas have similar restrictions. They are both flanked and compressed and can only walk around the periphery. Relying on the strength of individual soldiers to cut in, they have a great chance of winning. If they want to break through the zone defense, they have not yet fought. Success.

Seeing that the game seemed to be at a stalemate, Ranieri knew very well that Paris Saint-Germain must not have fully exerted its strength!

At least the full-backs haven't gone deep into the dangerous area of ​​the frontcourt to create pressure!

Therefore, from time to time, he will remind the defense to pay attention to strengthening the control of the side defense.

Blanco's expression was extremely serious from the beginning to the end, and the stalemate in the scene still surprised him a bit.

Even if Paris Saint-Germain plays slowly, it should be able to play a greater threat, but it won't look too crazy.

But Ye Yifeng can bring a counterattack threat, and he can also be in place in defense. This performance can be regarded as a variable in predicting the situation.

Paris Saint-Germain's tactical plan to use the width of the field to tear the Monaco defense to create a threat failed to work.

It has almost become a competition for the players' personal abilities!

Ibrahimovic fell into a tight siege, Lucas Jr. and Lavezzi hit the iron plate, Verratti, Motta, and Matuidi were not enough to deter the goal.

It seems that Monaco's defense is getting better and better, with no flaws!

In the 28th minute of the game, when Kondogbia made a wonderful steal against Thiago Motta, who was plugging in behind, Monaco quickly launched a counterattack.

Ye Yifeng rushed forward and received a pass from Toulalan just past the center line. Van der Weil blocked the way ahead. He decisively knocked the ball back to Moutinho behind the center circle.

Van der Veer followed Ye Yifeng every step of the way. When Moutinho dribbled forward and passed the center line, he immediately passed the ball and sent a direct pass!

Riviere retreated after rushing in the middle of the front court, so that Silva did not dare to rush up again after retreating. After stopping the ball, he quickly knocked the ball back diagonally.

Ye Yifeng passed the ball diagonally from behind him!

Van der Veer really didn't expect Ye Yifeng's range of activities to be so wide!

When you get to the frontcourt, don't go to the side at all!

So he could only switch the nearby target to Riviere, and then watched Ye Yifeng hit the ball to the front right of the penalty area.

Alex blocked Ye Yifeng's line from entering the penalty area while retreating. Just when Ye Yifeng seemed to be entering the penalty area, he passed the ball back behind him.

James Rodriguez dribbles the ball behind him to the middle of the penalty area.

Riviere and Ye Yifeng almost attracted the defensive attention of Paris Saint-Germain's entire back line.

James Rodriguez widened the distance with Matuidi in a cross-cut of the ball.

Without any interference, James Rodriguez kicked decisively in the middle of the penalty area!

The scalps of Paris Saint-Germain's defense are numb!

Under the eyes of everyone, James Rodriguez's shot blasted the football straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

At the critical moment, Sirigu leaped forward and touched the football with his right fingertip!

boom!

After the football changed direction and hit the crossbar, it rebounded and landed in the small penalty area. Silva quickly returned to the defense and pushed the bouncing football out of the bottom line.

James Rodriguez looked up to the sky and sighed, and the Monaco fans in the stands held their heads and felt extremely sorry.

Blanco still didn't change his face.

Monaco's counterattack began to make him feel a little threatened.

Originally, Van der Veer had already signed a military order, and the whole game must be in the second half of the right half of the field with the dead leaves!

It can be passed, but only the ball can pass, and people must stay.

But when Ye Yifeng hits the right half of the frontcourt, if Van der Veer, the right back, must follow up and defend in place, it would be difficult for a strong man, and it would be unrealistic.

Blanco gestured to Matuidi on the sidelines to properly release the offensive threat of James Rodriguez on the wing. The defense first went back to stand in the middle of the penalty area and then played by ear.

After all, Monaco's counterattack is non-threatening from the side. When entering the dangerous area of ​​​​attack, it will go inside. Whether it is a personal breakthrough or a cooperation, the center of gravity is still in the middle.

After the adjustments were made, Blanco continued to watch the battle.

In the eyes of all the audience, Paris Saint-Germain has nothing to do with Monaco in the away game, but the threat to the defense is getting bigger and bigger!

Things seem to be getting better for Monaco.

Paris Saint-Germain played against other teams other than Monaco, relying on hard power to flatten, and it seemed that it would not work on Monaco.

Ranieri has always been vigilant against the threat of assists from van der Weil and Maxwell, even though the two have been very cautious in supporting the midfield since the beginning of the game, and did not go deep into the attacking hinterland.

The fear is that there will be a sudden attack, and the defense will be caught off guard.

Paris Saint-Germain fans are already showing anxiety, but Monaco fans are becoming more and more confident!

No one understood why Blanco was so confident in his calmness.

Maybe it's the confidence brought by hard power, maybe it's because the game time hasn't forced him to start going to the gallows.

If he can't win the league championship, he will definitely be fired by Paris Saint-Germain!

This is the bottom line of the Paris Saint-Germain coach's coaching performance.

It doesn't matter whether the defense is interlocking or bullet to bullet.

Blanco thoroughly studied Ranieri, and at the same time expected that Monaco would inevitably be wary of Paris Saint-Germain's change of side attack.

Because that's so routine, even rookie coaches do it!

Any change of tactics in a stalemate will be a gamble!

How many chips to lose, how much risk to take.

To strengthen the offensive of the full-backs, it is necessary to choose whether to put James Rodriguez or Ye Yifeng.

Once the offense is not effective and the full-backs cannot return to the defense zone, the space on the side will be clear at a glance. Using players in the middle to fill the position can easily form a chain reaction and cause the defense line to collapse.

Especially under the premise that Paris Saint-Germain is the main attack, the risk will be even greater.

But in order to win this decisive battle, it is impossible for Paris Saint-Germain to go to the table without losing chips.

Just don't know if Ranieri and his Monaco anticipated what PSG would risk.

In the 36th minute of the game, when Paris Saint-Germain's attack came to the left side of the front field, the situation seemed to be deadlocked again.

It's not easy to play on the right. Lucas Jr.'s impact is really difficult for Abidal's experience and Ye Yifeng's crazy sweep.

Lavezzi on the left can at least secure Kurzawa, so that opponents dare not act rashly, while Toulalan also guards the key position inside. As long as Lavezzi does not cut inside, the opponent can accept the ball from the outside. Be wary of Maxwell's potential assist threat.

When Lavezzi retreated from the outside line and seemed to be brewing a sudden inward cutting individual ability display, Ye Yifeng saw an unexpected picture near Kondogbia in the backcourt!

His first reaction was to foul, but if he deliberately fouled at this time, he might apply for a red card for himself!

He quickly turned around to remind the defense line!

I also started to accelerate with my legs, but the pursuit was completely passive.

A figure accelerated from a parallel position two meters away and entered the Monaco penalty area!

Lavezzi kicks a cross directly from the wing!

When Ibrahimovic moved forward from the middle of the penalty area, Raj was beside him, and Carvalho subconsciously took two steps in the direction of Ibrahimovic.

At this time, I saw the line of the football flying, which was far higher than the top of Ibrahimovic's head!

That's... the point behind the penalty area!

Carvalho quickly turned around and retreated, but it was too late to take off and make a clearance.

And he also saw the Paris Saint-Germain player who entered the penalty area of ​​Monaco!

My mind went blank, incredible!

Under the gaze of the audience at the Louis II Stadium, the captain of Paris Saint-Germain, the leader of the back line, and the central defender Thiago Silva rushed to the penalty area and then responded to Lavezzi's cross and took off and shook his head!

Subasic took off and flew to save while moving quickly. His left arm was stretched to the limit, but his left hand couldn't touch the football that flew into the goal against the inside of the right goal post!

The captain of Paris Saint-Germain broke the deadlock like a magic soldier!

The real-time standings will be rewritten immediately as the score changes!

Paris Saint-Germain scored 93 points.

Monaco scored 92 points.
