Players from both sides rushed towards Li Liang and Perrin, who fell to the ground, entangled around the referee and complained fiercely.

Yaldim and Galtier confronted the fourth official on the sidelines at the same time, questioning whether it must have been a foul on the other side.

There are still more than ten minutes left in the game, and the battle has been fiercely fought to this point, and both sides will fight for an inch of land without giving in. The result of a suspected foul in the penalty area now will certainly have a significant impact on the game!

Tiemoue Bakayoko and Sidibi pulled up Li Liang together, and they saw the referee make a clear gesture for a free-kick.

The audience was in an uproar, and the referee of the ball ruled that it was Perrin who hit someone.

The slow-motion replay on the big screen showed that at the moment of the collision, Li Liang did seem to have made a header to clear the ball, and he was half a body closer to the ball than Perrin.

But Li Liang himself knows very well that if he doesn't hit Perrin, just like the big man Fabinho of 1.88 meters lost in the air when he lost the ball before, he would definitely not be able to compete with Perrin, who had already rushed up like a beast.

This defensive routine was learned by him and Ignashevic in the Moscow game. Li Liangcai really couldn't do it just now, if he didn't use this trick, he believed that he would definitely not be able to escape the bad luck of becoming the background of Perrin's goal.

As the match continued, Li Liang found it difficult to turn the situation around in the face of an opponent with an extremely tight overall formation.

Mbappe, who was in front of him, couldn't pass the ball for a long time and retreated to the midfield, but he still couldn't receive the ball and cut in the way he was used to.

In the 85th minute, Yildim replaced Mbappe with Carrillo.

Galtier then replaced Saivi with French midfielder Dabo, who is 1.87 meters tall, and then pushed Perrin and several other big men to the front, playing a long pass, hoping to knock on the door of Monaco again in the most simple and crude way.

Buoyed by the terrifying roar of the home fans, Saint-Etienne launched a final onslaught. Monaco shrank in the penalty area, doing their best to hold on to the 1-0 score until the end of the game.

At the end of the game, the players of both sides greeted each other, and Li Liang came on as a substitute with a mediocre performance and low interest, but he still wanted to shake hands with the two people to show his respect.

One is the goalkeeper Rufel who had a magical performance in this game, and the other is the tough guy Perrin.

After shaking hands with Rufeel, Perrin actually gave Li Liang a big hug, although he could see that he was a little depressed that he couldn't get 3 points, but Perrin still praised Li Liang generously: "Brother, your defense is really good, I feel that I am in a very good state today, and I thought I could score another one!" ”

Li Liang was still aching faintly, and he really wanted to ask: "Big brother, your tendons and flesh are too strong, right?" Did you grow up drinking milk? ”

The next day, everyone was resting, and Li Liang came to Latubi alone as usual to continue to practice hard with Spinoli.

At the end of the morning's training, Yaldim came to the sidelines.

Li Liang went over to say hello, and Yaldim asked, "Li, how do you feel?" Li Liang replied honestly: "Very tired! ”

Both Jardim and Spinoli on the side laughed, and Li Liang was inexplicable, but he soon understood why the two coaches were so happy.

In the tactical class the next day, when Caldeira read Li Liang's name in the starting list, he hadn't come back to his senses yet!

It wasn't until Falcao next to him stabbed him hard that Li Liang suddenly came to his senses and read his name.

He hurriedly opened the information on the desktop again, and his name was really on the list behind the 17th!

It turned out that Yaldim had been paying close attention to Li Liang's recent training, and when he learned that Li Liang's physical condition had recovered better than before, he immediately decided to let Li Liang start this game.

At the end of the tactical lesson, Jardim said: "We didn't play well against Saint-Etienne, but that's history, and if we play tomorrow's game well, I'm sure we'll be back on the right path again!"

CSKA only has two points at the moment and it doesn't mean anything to them to draw us, so they will definitely play this game as if it were the last game and will give it their all to fight us.

And if we only get one point, we will leave a lot of hope for Tottenham and Bayer Leverkusen, which will be very dangerous!

I don't want to be humble and conservative anymore at this time, we are the strongest team in this group and deserve to be the first in the group! I've heard that Monaco haven't lost to a Russian team in Europe since 2004, but tomorrow's goal is not to lose to them, but to win! ”

After hearing this, everyone was gearing up, and they all said that they couldn't wait for the game to start immediately, and Li Liang could see that everyone was determined to do him with a big vote.

On the day of the match, the Stade Louis II was filled with spectators early. Ghazi told Mou Zhaoge in advance that Li Liang would start again at home, so the British "three-man reporting team" also came to Monaco.

At the pre-match press conference, both coaches said that they would go all out to win, and CSKA captain Akinfeev was full of confidence that he would not let his opponent break through his door easily.

Falcao, who also started the line-up, said: "I'm feeling really good now, thank God, and our doctor and fitness coach, I'm fully fit and the next goal is to score more goals for Monaco. ”

Arsenal's chief scout for France, Grimandi, also arrived early as planned. Now, according to the professor's request, whenever he inspects the Monaco game, except for a few players who have been following and observing for a long time, Li Liang's detailed report must be submitted for each game.

Sitting in the stands, Grimandi was somewhat surprised, though not sure, as if he had seen two of his peers, having played against them himself as a player – one from the same club in north London, and the other from what appears to be the strongest club in the world today.

The game was not broadcast live on the sports channel, and many fans followed the game through the live streaming website. Before the game started, everyone had a heated discussion.

Some people think that Li 17's strength can already sit on the main force, but more people believe that Li 17's starting should be a tactical change pursued by Yaldim.

Monaco's wing tactics are very good, and Lee 17 is best at attacking in the middle, so his first start in the Champions League group stage does not mean anything, it depends on the process and outcome of the game.

With the end of the majestic Champions League theme song over sports, the game officially began.

Compared with the away game, Monaco's starting line-up of 4231 was dominated by Mendy replacing Raghi at left-back, Li Liang replacing Moutinho as a striker, and Falcao replacing Germain in front. Except for these three people, there were no other adjustments.

The visitors also responded with 4231, making smaller changes to their starting line-up, starting with Swedish centre-forward Strandberg in place of Traore.

At the beginning of the game, the two sides really started a confrontation with each other as the coaches said before the game, and the scene was very open and quickly sparked.
