Chapter 330: Vindictiveness
With 35 minutes played, Monaco's possession, which had hit rock bottom, climbed back to normal. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Angel Di Maria is still sharp, but the player himself has changed his style of play - for the simple reason that he has begun to worry about the lethal counter-attack if he concedes the ball, and that the opponent can change the whole situation with a direct pass.
So it's no longer possible for Di Maria to make all kinds of breakthroughs at will.
For these geniuses at the top, the level of play is highly correlated with psychological bonuses. When the "Angel" had some scruples in his heart, he was completely different from his previous peak state.
The morale of the Monaco players was reinvigorated, and the overall attack in Paris became a state of "thunder and rain".
After the attacking and defensive tempo was lowered by Monaco, the gap between the three lines in Paris gradually became apparent.
Paris's three midfielders not only have to face Bakayoko and Fabinho who started to move forward, but also help defend Sidibi and Silva on both sides, and most importantly, they also have to focus on guarding against Li Liang, which is under great pressure for a while, but fortunately, Aurier's forward move effectively alleviates the dilemma of the midfield defense.
In the face of Aurier's defense, Li Liang cleverly began to detour to the middle of the backfield.
This made the Ivorians very embarrassed, Di Maria can give very limited support to the defense, and he has to take into account the restrictions on Silva, so he does not dare to go too deep with Li Liang.
Li Liang began to switch positions with Silva frequently, using nimble runs to try to pull away the opponent's defense.
The two sides did not create any more threatening attacks, and the scene became flat.
Monaco held a one-goal lead and were naturally happy to see the situation like this, and played a defensive counterattack with peace of mind.
Paris looked a little impatient, but there was no better way for the time being under the threat of a counter-attack.
As the minutes ticked by, Louis "Puffy" grew angry.
In the semi-finals of the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, Luiz, who had just transferred from Chelsea to Paris for 50 million pounds, was appointed as the captain of the host Brazil when he was suspended by his defensive partner Thiago Silva and Neymar was injured and absent.
What happened later shocked the world, the Brazilian team made many historical disparities of 1:7, Lucis's red eyes after the game, and his dazed and helpless expression remained in the memory of fans around the world.
Since that game, the doubts about Luis have not stopped, and many believe that Luis will be embarrassed to leave Thiago Silva.
Paris also suffered an injury crisis in the game where Suarez scored twice, with Luiz, who had just returned from injury, once again humiliating himself in the absence of Thiago Silva due to injury.
Since then, Luiz's assessment has been a foregone conclusion: an emotionally unstable centre-back with obvious flaws.
Louis has been holding back a fire and he is very keen to respond to these doubts with his performance. So he's very committed to every game, especially against Monaco and he's hungry for a good performance.
I visited No. 17 for the first time just now, and because of my carelessness, I actually failed to fight against an opponent who was much thinner than me! After getting the number 17 out of his pocket, he made a good pass.
When he grabbed No. 17 for the second time, he completed a beautiful pass again after passing through his "small door", which is a great shame!
Louis was gradually overwhelmed by the rage, and he began to forget Emery's instructions, and once again pressed to block Li Liang's movements. At this time, the outcome of the game has become a duel between himself and No. 17 in Luis's eyes.
Emery's repeated rants were to no avail, and at this point, he knew that he had completely lost control of Luis. Emery shouted to his assistant in a fit of rage to make adjustments immediately, and he calmed down after being persuaded by his assistant. But Unai Emery has already made up his mind that Luiz will have to be substituted in the second half!
Paris' right-back Aurier is a mixed man, but he is very calm on the pitch and his ability to read the game is top-notch. Seeing that Luis began to make frequent tackles, he immediately changed his strategy, reducing his pressing and staying more in the backcourt.
Aurier knew very well that it would not be easy to calm down Luis, who was already on the top, and he had to take the initiative to fill in the position for the impulsive and irritable teammate
Li Liang was immediately keenly aware of the changes in the opponent's defensive system, compared to Aurier, Luis is taller and tougher, but his speed, agility and flexibility are obviously not as good as those of the Ivorians.
Since his debut, Li Liang has been quite experienced in dealing with such a big man, that is, using more frequent movements to consume the opponent, once the opponent is relaxed, his opportunity will come.
And Li Liang has already noticed that Luiz's movements are getting bigger and bigger, and the Brazilian has become more and more impatient, eager to beat himself completely in every defense.
The fire in Li Liang's heart was also rubbed, but unlike Luis, Li Liang was holding back his strength and wanted to pass the Brazilians again. He's going to fight back with Luiz in the most soccer way he presses him.
The opponent's anger is getting stronger and stronger, but Li Liang is becoming more and more calm.
Li Liang received the ball again near the opponent's 30-meter area, and he had already seen Luis rushing forward with great momentum.
Li Liang immediately began to fake and pretend to turn to the left to dodge, Luis was very experienced and did not be shaken away, but went straight to Li Liang's right foot to control the ball and stretched out his foot to intercept.
Li Liang immediately quickly dunked the ball to his left foot, and Luis also reacted, but he deliberately retracted his foot at the last moment, and took Li Liang's ankle with the sole of his foot very covertly.
A heart-piercing pain struck, Li Liang gritted his teeth to stabilize his stumbling body, and once again buckled the ball back to his right foot, his anger surged from his heart, this ball must pass the Brazilian!
Li Liang stretched out his right arm to block Luiz's forward pressing body, desperately protecting the ball, and the referee watched the entangled two people vigilantly on the side, ready to blow the whistle at any time.
The referee has already seen that the two are starting to get into a fight, and he must prevent the situation from escalating while maintaining the spectacle of the game.
If it was in a normal state of mind, there would be no suspense for Luis to win the final confrontation with Li Liang. However, the angry state of mind affected Louis's judgment.
Li Liang stretched out his arms and tried his best to carry the tall Louis with his body, while using his left foot to try to keep the ball away from the opponent.
Luis constantly used his body to put pressure on Li Liang, and his physique was obviously superior, so the victory and defeat were obvious if he continued to fight like this.
At the moment when Li Liang was about to lose his balance and be completely squeezed away, he suddenly pulled the ball back, and at the same time, the arm that was holding Luis's body began to exert force.
Louis immediately realized that Li Liang wanted to turn around, and immediately lowered his center of gravity, resisted Li Liang's body, and tried to tear Li Liang's arm away with his right hand.
Li Liang shook off Louis's hand and quickly turned to the left, Louis followed closely, but immediately realized that he had been fooled! The purpose of 17 is not to get rid of oneself completely, but to adjust the body posture!
Luis reacted quickly and immediately made a sharp stop, trying to avoid his opponent's center of gravity being deceived by his opponent. Li Liang turned completely in the direction away from Luis, with his left foot controlling the ball, and instantly changed from carrying Luis on his back to facing him.
Louis suddenly realized that something was wrong, until now, all the movements of the 17th are actually shaking, his real purpose?!
It was too late, I saw Li Liang's left ankle shake, and the ball accurately drilled through the crotch of Louis, who opened his legs in order to stabilize the center of gravity!
Louis had a bang in his head! He immediately stretched out his leg desperately and swept towards Li Liang, no matter what, he couldn't let the opponent pass him like this, he must put down No. 17!
Li Liang had already taken precautions and immediately strode sideways, but he was still swept to the supporting leg by Louis who fell to the ground, Li Liang stumbled and looked like he was about to pounce on the ground!
The referee had already put the whistle in his mouth, but he immediately stopped again, and he was shocked to find that No. 17, who was about to fall to the ground, used his hands to alternately support the turf very reluctantly, once, twice, and the third No. 17 finally got rid of the posture of about to fall, strode up straight, and forcibly resumed the running posture!
Louis finally paid the price for his fighting spirit, and Li Liang successfully passed him!
