Chapter 321: Strange Number 17
Yaldim was the last to board the bus, and he stood in the carriage watching his disciples, everyone fell silent, and many immediately took off their headphones. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The atmosphere in the carriage was a little oppressive, and Yaldim certainly knew why. He laughed and said, "Boys, we're leaving!" In 4 hours, I hope to see your smiling faces! ”。
The car started, and Yaldim began to close his eyes and recuperate.
The day after the home win over Villarreal, he and Falcao accompanied the club's vice-president Vasilyev to the Grimaldi Convention Centre in Monaco for the draw for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League.
Monaco, who were placed in Pot 4, had good luck and avoided all the traditional giants and were drawn into Group E by former Brazilian star Robert Carlos, who was a guest.
The opponents in the first pot of the same group are CSKA Moscow, Bayer Leverkusen in the second and Tottenham Hotspur in the third.
Despite this, when the players regrouped the next day, Jardim issued a ban on any Champions League-related topics until the end of the game against Paris, and he wanted his disciples to focus on the weekend's games.
The team is on good momentum right now, and in the words of the assistant coaches, "it's almost a different team [compared to last season]." 'He's seen just now that the players are nervous and excited, which is the ideal mental state before the big game.
Li Liang put on his headphones again and played his favorite Linkin Park's "Leave Out All the Rest", looking at the scenery passing by the window, although the song became more and more passionate, his heart became more and more calm.
He recalled the conversation with Mbappe. Li Liang likes this 18-year-old young man very much and believes that his future has infinite possibilities. And I didn't find out what I really wanted until I was 25 years old.
The good thing is that it's not too late, it's still too late. Every game is a kind of redemption for me, a beginning to a new hope.
The bus stopped outside the players' entrance, and the fans, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately cheered.
Everyone, including Yaldim, stopped and patiently signed autographs or took photos with the fans.
Li Liang also won the cheers of the fans like the rest of his teammates, and many shouted: "Lee, defeat Paris!" ”
The atmosphere of the battle could be felt from here, and Li Liang was also excited. When he came out of the locker room, he found that more than half of the fans had already entered, but what caught his eye the most was the frantic visiting fans in the stands at Capdale Point!
Thousands of Parisian fans were in awe-inspiring motion, many of whom had already taken off their dark blue jerseys and were already in a state of euphoria with more than an hour before the start of the game.
The home fans cheered when they saw their players enter, but they couldn't suppress the loud noise at Capdale Point.
Li Liang frowned, the momentum of the fans in Paris is very amazing, of course, this is also related to their impressive record in the new season.
Li Liang has done his homework and knows that in the four warm-up games before the start of the season, Paris won all of them against opponents including Real Madrid, new Premier League champions Leicester City and Inter Milan.
In the first game of the new season, the French Super Cup, Paris won a disparity of 4:1, and last season's runner-up Lyon was defeated and had no way to fight back. In the two league games of the new season, Paris easily won all of them.
It is worth mentioning that since April 13 last season, when the Champions League knockout round lost to Manchester City in the quarterfinals, Paris has won 10 wins and 1 draw in the 11 official matches since then.
Spinoli jogged with the group and then began to stretch, when Capdale Corner erupted again - and Paris Saint-Germain entered.
The two teams each occupied half of the court, and Li Liang couldn't help but feel a little excited when he saw those well-known stars.
He saw the long-haired, tall and dashing Cavani, as well as the "unkempt" David Luiz who was praying devoutly, Di Maria, who looked a little absent-minded, and the small star Verratti, whom Li Liang liked very much, and so on.
Li Liang recalls that in the tactical lesson, Caldeira said that Thiago Silva, the number one star in Paris and the absolute heart of the backline, will definitely miss the game due to injury, and he expects the opponent to field David Luiz and Marcos Oyas Correa - the central defensive combination of Marquinhos, which is commonly referred to as Marquinhos.
The rest of the positions are in suspense, with Caldeira still expecting Paris to still play with the 4231 that their new boss Unai Emery excels at.
The goalkeeper is German Kevin Trapp, while the two wing-backs are Frenchman Levin Kurzava from Monaco's academy and Ivory Coast international Serge Aurier.
The two midfielders should be France international Blaise Matuidi, Brazilian Thiago Motta, naturalized Italian, and the attacking midfielders are Angel Di Maria and his compatriot Javier Pastorere, and Brazilian Lucas da Silva, commonly known as Lucas Jr.
The striker was undoubtedly the lone arrow by Uruguayan Edinson Cavani.
Caldeira then smiled and said: "This prediction is about 70% accurate, because we don't know much about Emery, so it is likely that there will be discrepancies at that time." ”
……
Caldeira took the freshly printed list of Parisians and found Yaldim standing on the sidelines, and Emery did make changes to the opponent's just-announced line-up.
Marquinhos, who returned late to the Olympic Games, did not start the game despite being in the 18-man squad, with youngsters Fresnel Kim Pompei and Luis still partnered in the central defensive position, and Verratti replacing Pastore in midfield.
To their surprise, Matuidi, the absolute mainstay of the previous midfield, was replaced by his compatriot youngster Adrien Rabiot.
At the same time, Unai Emery also saw Monaco's starting line-up and immediately judged that Yaldim would adopt a defensive formation dominated by a back five, and he was also a little surprised by the unfamiliar number 17 in the list.
On the day of the match between Monaco and Villarreal, Unai Emery and his assistant, who were sitting in the stands of the Stade Louis II and watched the opponent, did not see the player.
He had only seen Li Liang when he was studying the game logs, and after a few glances, he thought that this player was not strong enough and was unlikely to appear in today's game.
Unai Emery didn't pay much attention to it, believing it was due to injury problems in the opposition's midfield, and that it was a desperate move for Yaldim to start the No.17.
……
Mu Zhaoge and Su Yingfeng, who were sitting in the press box, exclaimed at the same time, they both saw the list of appearances of the two sides that had just been announced on their mobile phones!
The two men glanced at each other, and at the same time cast their adoring gazes on Gazi, who was smiling beside him.
They were also shocked by Tang Meng and Lu Yue, who had just come to the studio, as well as many people who were guarding the computer.
