Chapter 431: Knock on the door of a new world with victory

Watching the ball hit the far post like a long-distance putt in snooker and bounce into the net, the Louis II Stadium took the court by storm again!

In the 73rd minute of the second half, Monaco seized the mistake of the Tottenham defense and successfully completed the overtake, 2:1!

Li Liang stood behind Dale and kept staring at the ball, seeing Lemar's brilliant left-footed volley, and Lloris's amazing reaction speed like a divine help, Li Liang was extremely shocked, and couldn't help but shake his head in amazement.

He really didn't expect that his strong burst and offensive organization actually caused Lemar's goal by mistake!

In fact, the completion of the pass to Sidibi has exceeded Li Liang's own expectations, and he didn't expect to end up with a goal to overtake!

Seeing his teammates rushing towards Lemar frantically, Li Liang shook and almost fell - but he knew that he must not fall, and he must do his best to play.

Li Liang squeezed out the last trace of strength from his whole body, waved his hands wildly and roared and rushed towards his teammates surrounding Lemar!

Listening to the huge cheers of the audience, watching the frantic celebrations of the Monaco players on the field, and the jubilation on the opposing bench, Pochettino crouched down on the sideline with his hands in his trouser pockets, his eyes wide and his heart struggling fiercely.

The performance of the number 17 was completely unexpected, and this unexpected goal conceded completely disrupted his plan!

According to the information he had before the game, it was believed that the physical strength of the No. 17 player, the core of Monaco's attack, would not last until the end of the game, and in the first half he and his assistants expected that Monaco, who had to pay more running, would definitely reach a critical point in the second half around 70 minutes!

Pochettino stood up as he watched Li Liang rush towards his teammates in celebration, already doubting what he had seen.

The number 17 looked like he would not have had a problem holding out for another 10 minutes, and if it was still 1-1, the Argentine would dare to send another Dutch centre-forward, Janssen, to fight for his life in the final moments.

Even if he accidentally conceded a goal, Pochettino believed that his disciples would be able to come back and defeat Monaco in the last 20 minutes!

Only one premise is needed, the 17th is off the field or passively "stealth" on the field because he can't run. Pochettino is already convinced that Monaco without the number 17 is a different team entirely!

But seeing that No. 17 seemed to have overcome the pole of his body and gradually adjusted back to his state, Pochettino began to hesitate again. The original plan was to replace Wanyama or Dale with Janssen, push Ali to the front, and concentrate firepower to launch a general attack while Monaco couldn't run, and when Li Liang's fitness was declining.

But the current situation has made the Argentines more and more scruples, and if they are desperate to leave only one defender, it will definitely make the No. 17 even more lawless!

Pochettino closed his eyes in pain, he had already made a decision.

The lesser of two is the basis for Pochettino's decision. Li Liang and his teammates have already beaten the Argentines to lose the courage to fight for their lives.

The excited Monaco players finally dispersed, and Lemar and Sidibi high-fived and ran to Li Liang, hugging Li Liang tightly in the thunderous cheers of the audience.

The French were taken aback, Li Liang seemed to have no strength at all, his weight was pressed over, as long as he let go, it seemed that he would fall down at any time!

Li Liang hugged Lemar and said in a low voice: "Thomas, wait a minute, let me breathe a sigh of relief, don't let them see that I can't run!" ”

Lemar immediately came to his senses and pressed Li Liang tightly, and then the two of them jogged back to their own half side side by shoulder side with each other smiling - Lemar's smile was a little stiff when he looked closely, because he was holding Li Liang's arm and secretly supporting Li Liang.

Pochettino and his assistants didn't care about Li Liang's situation anymore, and they were busy telling Tottenham's French right-back Sissoko to adjust the focus.

Before kick-off, Tottenham finally made their final substitution, replacing Son Heung-min with Sissoko instead of Janssen for Wanyama as originally intended.

Alli was pushed up front to play a double centre-forward position parallel to Kane, with Christian Eriksen and Sissoko playing behind him, and Dier and Wanyama continuing the two-man midfield combination.

It wasn't until Sissoko ran to the field and began to convey the coach's instructions to his teammates that Li Liang finally realized that he couldn't hold on any longer.

He sat down on the ground, reluctantly removed the socks on his legs, took off the shin guards, and lay on the turf with his hands in his hands.

It's been a long time since I've experienced this leg cramp in a race. Li Liang is extremely helpless, he is definitely going to play, fortunately he has contributed all to the team, as long as he can win this game, Li Liang believes that his efforts are enough to smooth out the damage caused to the team by continuous mistakes after the opening.

Pochettino was dumbfounded, he finally understood that although the number 17 was far away on the field, he actually firmly grasped his own mind!

It turns out that everything before was to shake yourself! Pochettino felt that the pitch under his feet suddenly shook a little, and the game had reached this point, and all his cards had been played!

The audience also exclaimed, and when they saw Li Liang lifted Li Liang on a stretcher, the audience burst into neat applause.

Grimandi, Gazi, and Mou Zhaoge all stood up, and Li Liang, who spelled it like this, deserved such applause, and his efforts were impeccable.

Nasser was still reminiscing about the ball behind Li Liang's pass to Sidibi, and even he couldn't help but applaud.

He Wei and Xue Yang looked at the subtitles on the screen, in the first 73 minutes of the game, the average running distance of the players on the field in Monaco reached 9,850 meters, and Li Liang reached 10,970 meters!

He Wei exclaimed: "If I'm not mistaken, this is the first time that Li Liang has run more than 10,000 meters in a race!" ”

Xue Yang couldn't believe it: "Li Liang ran more than 1 km more than his teammates on average!" Amazing, amazing! ”

Xiao Yu looked at the close-up in the live broadcast screen, and Li Liang, who was lying on a stretcher wrapped in a blanket, stretched out his right hand and made a thumbs-up gesture to the stands.

Looking at the familiar half-"hug" tattoo on Li Liang's wrist, Xiaoyu couldn't help but shed tears again.

She remembered that outside the gate of this community, she saw the cramped Li Liang for the first time, and wanted to see more of her anxious but embarrassed Li Liang, who looked ordinary at that time, how did Li Liang, who looked ordinary and couldn't be more ordinary, become so powerful?

……

Monaco's coaching staff was well prepared, with Brazilian striker Boschlia coming in for Li Liang in midfield, and Germain also coming on to replace Falcao, who was also almost out of strength.

Pochettino commanded his disciples to press all over the line in an attempt to equalise the score as quickly as possible, but a strategic error of judgment pale in the face of such on-the-spot adjustments.

In the last minute of stoppage time, Monaco retreated to the hoarse shouts of the fans.

Tottenham even Lloris pressed past half time, and the whole team went on a rampage around Monaco.

The referee finally blew the whistle as Kane scrambled wide from the middle of the box to end five minutes of stoppage time.

Monaco was sent off at home and conceded a goal first, but quickly equalized with Li Liang's super leaping header, and finally Li Liang instigated the attack again in the second half, and Sidibi assisted Lemar to score a wonderful goal to seal the victory.

This hard-won 3 points also announced that Monaco has 11 points from 5 games, 3 wins and 2 draws, and beat Leverkusen, who has 1 win and 4 draws, to lock the first place in the group in advance!

Tottenham have 1 win, 1 draw, 3 losses and 4 points, and due to the relationship between the winners and losers, they can only fight for third place in the final round regardless of the result of facing CSKA at home.

Tottenham fans at Capdale Point were dejected, while the home fans sang the Champions League theme song "Champions League" to celebrate their place in the round of 16!

Tottenham's players were sad and dazed, unable to accept such a reality, and were closed by Monaco in the face of a great situation.

Li Liang limped to the field with everyone on the bench, and he suddenly found that there was a cameraman carrying a camera and had been filming him, which was also the first time he enjoyed such treatment!

Grimandi smiled and applauded in the stands, and suddenly his face changed: "It's broken!" ”

Not being able to "withdraw" the stadium in advance meant that it would take at least an extra hour to get off the congested roads around the stadium, and the next day you had important games to watch!

Before stepping into the VIP passage, Nasser turned back to Kluivert and said, "Don't forget to make an appointment with Vasilyev, I'm going to have a good chat with him." ”

He Wei and Xue Yang also noticed the close-up of the long shot given to Li Liang by the live director, and Xue Yang praised while looking at the picture: "Look, several players from Tottenham Hotspur came to shake hands with Li Liang, and even Tottenham head coach Pochettino came to congratulate him!"

His performance convinced even his opponents! ”

He Wei was extremely happy: "I think Li Liang has a high probability of winning the best in this game.

Although his mistake caused his teammates to be sent off early and gave the opponent a penalty, Li Liang then scored a goal and planned the second goal, and finally saved the game with a strong performance and conquered everyone on the scene!

The victory in this game undoubtedly belongs to Monaco, which is braver and more enterprising, and also belongs to Li Liang! ”

Glick was overjoyed and directly put Li Liang on his back, and walked to the stands with him on his back to thank everyone, Li Liang kept chanting with everyone and all the fans!

At this moment, Li Liang finally understood that he had the opportunity to challenge stronger opponents and strive for higher honors!

The Champions League knockout round is the world of the real powerhouse, Li Liang told himself -

The quarterfinals, here we are.
