In the locker room, Yaldim began to cheer everyone on.

He noticed that Li Liang was sitting there silently with his head covered with a towel.

Li Liang is clearly different from the rest of his teammates.

You don't need to look at it to know that your players will give it their all in today's game.

In Ligue 1, for whatever reason, there is not a single player who does not want to play against Paris.

Especially in the past half a season, the whole Monaco team is no longer in the mentality and state when they beat Paris 3-1 at home.

From the moment they were expected to break out of the Champions League group, the outside world began to estimate the value of each individual.

There are also rumours about which Monaco players are being eyed by which giants.

The players whose names are mentioned actually know better than anyone which ones are just rumors, which ones are true, and which ones have been going on in secret.

Yaldim doesn't think this will affect the players' performances.

The so-called professional players will definitely treat every game with the most professional attitude.

This professional attitude also includes showing your abilities to potential buyers, proving to future owners that you are absolutely worth the money, and winning better treatment with outstanding performance, such as salary, signing fees, etc.

The Portuguese was convinced from the start that Paris would definitely reach the final.

It's just that the bumpy coaching experience in the early years of starting from a small club made Yaldim worry more about another thing.

Monaco's opponents, Nancy, are already widely seen as relegation favourites halfway through the season.

The French League has become the most important game for Nancy right now, and they have squeezed all the way to the semi-finals and will not give up easily.

Moreover, what their players desire most is undoubtedly what Nancy's players want.

Jardim did not want to see the team suffer too much attrition in this game, which directly affected the battle of the league against Grand Paris four days later.

He had to make trade-offs.

……

Falcao gathered them together again, and he whispered in the middle: "Take Nancy, brothers, and we will meet Paris again!"

So it's also the best chance! You get the idea! ”

Even Li Liang understands a little, and he has seen the clues from the abnormal details of many teammates before the game.

Even Mbappe whispered to himself during the warm-up: "Lee, if we can win the league and the French League Cup, I bet Paris will definitely come to poach our people!"

Lee, are you tempted? ”

Li Liang suddenly remembered Kurzava's words, and the left wing-back of Paris predicted that Li Liang would soon become their team-mate.

At that time, he just laughed it off, but now, Li Liang understands that this is not groundless.

He remembered the days when he was the "Emperor of the Ball", and he once saw it on the Internet - in the years when AC Milan ruled Serie A and shocked Europe, Berlusconi, who was the president of the club at the time, liked to bring in players who had a wonderful performance against Milan, such as Zidane's iron buddy Dugari.

He instantly understood that Mbappe must have been tempted.

Li Liang replied with a smile: "Killian, I will help you make your wish come true!" ”

At that time, both of them laughed out loud after saying this.

Listening to Falco's words now, Li Liang couldn't help but ask himself: "Would you be tempted by such an opportunity?" ”

More accolades, bigger stages, more money – either is worth the hard work of a professional footballer.

So, what do you really want?

After roaring out of the dressing room with everyone, the Monaco players walked out of the tunnel and onto the pitch with their opponents.

Listening to the louder and louder shouts coming from the entrance of the passage, Li Liang seemed to be playing at the Louis II Stadium for the first time, and all kinds of emotions in his heart were about to rush out like a surging tide.

All right.

Since you've chosen the hardest path, let's move on.

Otherwise, what's the point of all that persistence?

After completing all the pre-start procedures with everyone, Li Liang and Falcao stood face to face in the center circle and prepared to kick off, and the Colombian was applauding the other players vigorously.

Li Liang slapped his face vigorously with both hands and yelled: "Come on!" ”

He believes that he is ready for all challenges and will face all challenges calmly.

Falcao smiled heartily.

The "tiger", which was once high-spirited, red through Europe, and breathed like a tiger, has now gone through vicissitudes, and everything in his eyes is becoming more and more indifferent.

The 31-year-old Colombian is becoming more and more like a real passer-through in front of these young teammates.

Like Yaldim, Falcao found that Li Liang was not as eager as other young people who could not hide their yearning for Paris.

Li Liang at this moment, in Falcao's eyes, is exactly the same as when he first saw him at Stamford Bridge a year ago.

This guy is here to play football.

At that time, Falco's opinion of Li Liang was no different from this rainy winter night - this guy has never changed.

……

Halfway through the first half, Li Liang, who was receiving treatment on the sidelines, was anxious.

He was injured in a scramble with the opposing midfielder Chetu who was marking him, and after he went to the ground, he noticed a sharp pain in his left shoulder.

After Parker, the team doctor, initially judged that the problem was not big, and it should be just a muscle injury.

Yaldim breathed a sigh of relief when he received the message, but still asked through the intercom: "Anthony (Parker), ask Lee if he can still hold on?"

Tell him, if it doesn't work, it's over! ”

Four days later, at the Parc des Princes, Li Liang was an extremely important part of his plan, and Jardim did not dare to risk his health.

Of course, Li Liang chose to continue to persevere.

Grimandi in the stands breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Parker finish his temporary treatment and protective measures for Li Liang to get up and signal to the referee to return to the field.

The Parisian coach Unai Emery, who was in the other stands, frowned, and he found that Monaco's No. 17 was tougher than when they first met half a year ago!

Manchester City assistant coach Mikel Arteta was also in the stands, he was also staring at Li Liang before bowing his head and starting to record.

Tang in the studio shook his head violently: "Li Liang hit it hard just now!"

The treatment took a long time, and the camera was given to Yaldim, and the other substitutes had already begun to warm up.

But in the end, there were no substitutions, and it seems that the team really needs Li Liang at this difficult time, and he himself is willing to continue to persevere.

I hope Li Liang is okay! ”

Netizens are also discussing:

"Is this the Nancy team? It's so hard! It's clear that I'm here to smash the field today! ”

"It's really hard to say the result if you kick like this, don't capsize in the gutter!"

"What's the matter, these guys are completely out of shape? So the pressure on Li 17 is too much, right?! ”

……

Li Liang returned to the court, and his left shoulder was still aching.

The burly Chetu immediately leaned over again.

He patted Li Liang on the back to apologize, but said in his mouth: "I'm sorry, brother, but next time I will be more ruthless, you better prepare!" ”

Li Liang smiled: "Then you'd better keep up!" ”

As soon as this game started, Li Liang realized that he and his teammates were in big trouble.

Yaldim's judgment was unusually accurate, and he told Li Liang in his office: "99.99 percent of Paris will make it to the final."

And Nancy will fight with us to the end like a champion.

I have to rotate otherwise we will be more passive in Paris.

Lee, we need your strength......"

Nancy was resolute in their counter-attacking style from the start, and kept a close eye on several of Monaco's arrowheads in central midfield.

For Li Liang, like Lyon, they are similar in height to Li Liang, but with stronger physique and athleticism, and Chetu is experienced in defense.

Compared to the team that lost 6-0 in the first half of the season, Nancy today is a different team entirely.
