Chapter 700: "Nuclear Weapons" Eruption
As soon as the two sides played each other, the Monaco players and the coaching staff on the sidelines were all taken by surprise.
Pep Guardiola was the first to react: "Allegri is playing three central defenders!"
He still pushed Daniel to the front......"
Arteta stared intently at the pitch: "Daniel is simply one of the most talented guys I've ever met!
With his strength, I will never be surprised to play as a striker! β
Wenger also looked closely at Alves on the field: "It's coming! This guy!
We've had too much of his loss......"
Mourinho was also focused: "Jorge, Juve are going to attack!" β
Messi was also nervous in front of the TV, and he simply got up from the sofa and sat directly in front of the screen.
At only 1.72 meters tall, Brazilian Daniel Alves, who looks even a little skinny, is still undisputedly recognized as the best right-back in the world even at the age of 34, and was selected into the FIFA 2017 Team of the Year on October 24, 2017.
In the summer of 2002, Alves joined La Liga club Sevilla on loan, thus beginning his illustrious career in Europe.
Alves was named UEFA Player of the 2005/06 UEFA Cup after helping Sevilla FC win the UEFA Cup and UEFA Super Cup in 2006.
Daniel in 2007? Alves helped Sevilla FC defend their UEFA Cup title, and won back-to-back Copa del Rey and Super Cup titles on domestic stage.
He then helped Sevilla FC defend the Spanish Super Cup against Real Madrid and make his Champions League debut.
In 2008, Daniel? Alves joined Barcelona for a record β¬40 million and won the Champions League, league and Copa del Rey in his first season, as well as the Spanish Super Cup, UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup, before defending the league title in 2010.
During this period, Alves put on an astonishing performance of double assists in the league for four consecutive seasons.
During his time at Barcelona, he won a total of three Champions League titles with the team, and is considered one of the most important core members of the Barcelona team, and it was at Barcelona that his reputation as the "world's No. 1 right-back" became resounding.
These are all details that Li Liang has been familiar with for a long time, and it was all because of the phone call Messi made after learning that Monaco would meet Juventus in the semi-finals.
Li Liang now remembers Messi's original words: "...... Lee, not because of their defense, not because of Dybala's goal.
There is only one Daniel between us and Juventus.
He's the scariest one in the Juventus squad......"
Xue Yang exclaimed: "Juventus has changed to play three defenders!"
Pjanic and Marchisio dropped back, Mandzukic and Sandro remained on the left, and Higuain and Dybala were more flexible.
The biggest change is that Allegri simply pushed Alves to the front completely, leaving one side completely to Alves! β
Jardim and Caldeira looked at each other and nodded, the opponent's change of move was completely unexpected. Monaco also laid out a response plan in the dressing room.
Li Liang continued to occupy the right flank, Silva moved to the left, Mbappe moved forward and Falcao played as a double striker, and Monaco's position on the field reverted to the traditional 442.
Alves' deterrent power was so great, even though Monaco seemed to see a glimmer of victory under Li Liang in the second half of the first half, but in order to ensure the safety of the goal, they had to readjust their defensive strategy.
In less than 5 minutes of the second half, Alves made a killing attempt on the right side with a running position that the Monaco players could not understand at all!
His activity completely activated Dybala in the front, and Monaco's midfield defense simply could not control these two high-mobility explosions at the same time!
Zidane was keenly aware of this: "Claudio, De Gibril (Sidibi) and TimoΓ«ne can't defend against Daniel!"
Not even with Bernardo (Silva)!
Even our Daniel (Carvajal) is no match for him one-on-one.
This guy is amazing, when I was still playing at Real Madrid, I thought it was an amazing guy! β
Arsene Wenger sighed: "If he wants to, Alves can play until he is 40 years old!"
Among the right-backs in the world, Alves himself is a grade, and then everyone else! β
Pep Guardiola said to Arteta: "Mikel, Daniel is such a player, just leave the whole right side to him alone.
The Monaco lads are still too young and they don't know what to do with Daniel. β
Arteta smiled: "Pep, do you know that? β
Guardiola shrugged his shoulders and shook his head helplessly.
Old Man Zhang looked at the projection screen and exclaimed: "When we were young, we were most afraid of the 23rd-
Not to mention being small, it looks like thin arms and legs, but it is very hard, and its strength is very good!
Be especially careful when you encounter this! β
Ding Ding whispered to Winter Melon: "Brother Gua, I watched Alves on TV when I was in elementary school, and this guy is almost a goblin!" β
Li Liang didn't actually stop paying attention to Alves when he was trying to attack in the first half.
According to Messi β "...... Although Alves plays a completely different kind of football than Juventus, he is definitely capable of changing the ...... of the whole game in an instant" - Alves should be the equivalent of a "nuclear weapon" on the field, but why doesn't he attack?
Could it be because Juventus don't plan to play Monaco away from home?
Little did he know that his successful breakthrough in the final moments of the first half and an almost successful assist for Mbappe had finally made Allegri determined.
At half-time, Allegri and Gianluigi Buffon and several other veterans were in complete agreement β it would be difficult to completely limit Monaco's attacking prowess this season, which has topped Europe's top European rankings with defensive defence.
Allegri decided to push the defence into the opponent's half and also use a strong attack to contain Monaco's attack!
In the 53rd minute of the game, Marchisio, who had been inconspicuous before, won the ball at the back, and he quickly sent a pass forward with his right foot after a little observation.
Dybala, who was detouring back to the back, quickly cut between Bakayoko and Sidibi, and before the opponent could react, he jumped high and smashed the ball to Alves, who was plugged in at high speed, with a juggling "scorpion swing tail"!
Alves grabbed in front of Bakayoko and controlled the ball and advanced directly, Bakayoko couldn't carry the opponent who was more than ten centimeters taller than him after several efforts, and watched the Brazilian calmly pass the ball to Higuaj, who retreated to respond.
Higuain's movement was extremely smart, he dropped back sharply to receive the ball near the center circle and left Glick who was marking him at a loss, until Higuain sent a through ball behind Glick, and the Polish central defender saw that Bakayoko completely missed Alves, and he had to desperately turn and chase after the Brazilian who was rushing forward at high speed!
Sidibi and Bakayoko have been completely out of order, and the running position of the two in the panic has not formed an effective protection at all! Alves attracted Glick to get closer, and suddenly unexpectedly knocked the ball back into the middle with his heel!
Higuain rushed in time to shoot with a right-footed shot before Jemelson's tackle!
