Chapter 745: The Captain's Foresight
Time seemed to stand still, and Falcao's roar echoed in everyone's ears.
After Falcao sat down, Yaldim looked at Li Liang and nodded.
Li Liang spoke: "I know, this should be our penultimate game together, right?!" ”
This low-pitched and flat sentence was like thunder, causing a stronger shock in the locker room than Falco's roar just now!
Even Yaldim's eyes widened, and the assistant coaches, team doctors, and team members were all dumbfounded!
Li Liang stood up and his tone was still calm, but as if there was an invisible force, he said every word to everyone's hearts: "To be precise, there are still two and a half games left."
In addition to the half here, Rennes' 90 minutes, and Cardiff – who knows?
Maybe as Radamel said, we can't hold on to 90 minutes, maybe another ending, 120 minutes, and even a penalty shoot-out -
I've envisioned all of this. ”
He looked around and his team-mates were much calmer, at least for the time being, out of the state of mind that had been so bad in the first half.
Li Liang's voice became louder: "I haven't thought about it, when some of us meet again next season, will we wear the same jersey?"
Will we never have the opportunity to fight together again for the rest of our careers like we do today? ”
The atmosphere was changing subtly, and Caldeira noticed that little by little, light and focus were returning to the eyes of the players.
Li Liang paused and said, "Okay, let's get back to the game.
Saint-Etienne are strong – and we owe more to them because they helped us to be stronger and more sober before we went to Cardiff.
Because we are stronger than them today, and they have done so much to limit us.
So I think it's hard for them to keep the quality of the game in the first half in the second half!
So we'll be able to beat them! ”
Everyone was staring and listening intently to their captain.
Li Liang turned to Yaldim: "I'm sorry Leonardo, I said a little too much. ”
Yaldim looked at Li Liang fixedly, slowly raised his hands and applauded, and soon, Caldeira also began to applaud, and the rest of the assistant coaches, team doctors, and teams all began to applaud!
Immediately afterwards, applause began to replace the nervousness and quickly spread among the players.
Yaldim waved everyone to stop: "What else can I say?"
Everything I wanted to say, our captain has said it for me!
Go and let them remember what the real Monaco is like! ”
After speaking, he beckoned everyone to go directly to the ceremony-
"Monaco! Advance! ”
This time the roar in the locker room was deafening.
Looking at the backs of the players, Caldera nervously asked, "Leonardo, is this really okay?"
Straight to the second half without setting anything up? ”
Yaldim replied firmly: "We have a great captain who will lead everyone to find their way again!" ”
In the players' tunnel, Li Liang, who was at the forefront, first met the opponents who came out of the away team's locker room.
He reached out to both Perrin and Rufel, who were at the front: "Please bring out your best form!" ”
The Green Army generals were stunned, and Li Liang then said: "The warm-up is over, and we are going to start the real game!" ”
After saying that, he was the first to stride out of the players' tunnel.
Tang Meng and Lu Yue basically agreed on the same opinion in the middle of the field.
Tang Meng said to the technical statistics on the screen: "This is really in response to the old saying - 'If you want to hurry, you can't reach it'!"
Statistically, if you cover the names of the two teams, it's hard to tell who's at home!
Monaco's performance was out of order, and Li Liang's performance could only be said to be barely passable compared to usual. ”
Lu Yue nodded approvingly: "Of course, the imbalance in the mentality of his teammates also has a great impact on Li Liang.
As the saying goes, 'a good man needs three gangs', and when the other Monaco players started to be impatient, even if Li Liang calmed down, it was useless.
This is also the characteristic of this young team of Monaco, the state is full of passion and is not afraid of any opponent, but in a situation like today, there is no way to take Saint-Etienne at home, and it is very likely that the gutter will capsize!
Anyway, if you face Real Madrid in such a state, you will definitely be sending people away! ”
On the screen, players from both sides have already appeared on the field.
In the second half, the away team kicked off, and Li Liang clapped his hands hard outside the circle and shouted to his teammates: "Focus!
We need to be a little more focused! ”
Li Liang himself is becoming more focused.
As the referee's whistle blew, the Green began to pass patiently.
Li Liang has allowed himself to forget about the first half, forgetting the provocations of Perrin and Rufel.
Forget about Falcao's flying penalty.
Forget all the rumours surrounding his summer transfer, both true and false.
I forgot what I just said, this is the last and third-to-last game for everyone to be together!
Lu Yue looked at it a few times and immediately exclaimed: "Good guy, what kind of magic did Yaldim cast in the locker room?!" ”
The reaction on the scene was more fierce than him, because everyone saw that Monaco's three lines were pressed at the same time, Li Liang and Mbappe, as well as Lemar and Silva on both wings, were frantically pressing the opposing midfielder Lemoine who was holding the ball!
Grimandi also shouted: "What the hell is going on in the locker room? ”
Because he saw the familiar Monaco again!
Lemoine couldn't find a way forward at all, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he passed directly back to Perrin behind him.
Li Liang did not hesitate to rush to the captain of the Green Army, and faced Perrin's big foot to break the siege and fly directly to the ground!
With a muffled "bang", the ball flew high, and Perrin directly volleyed and fell on the turf!
The referee hesitated and waved for the game to continue! Li Liang had already turned over and took a few steps to rush to the ball in front of the penalty area, and his arms were spread out to block Catlin who was trying to clear the siege.
In the long-lost cheers of the audience, Li Liang, who was in a favorable position, jumped high in the air and shook his head to give the ball to Lemar, who was answering on the side-
Lemar directly adjusted his pace to catch up with the ball, and his left foot crossed and volleyed vigorously!
Rufeld had already attacked, and the ball was subconsciously blocked by his subconscious reach, and then quickly brushed the far post and flew out of the bottom line!
The loud sigh was followed by thunderous applause, "Monaco! Advance! The roar rang out from the stands again!
The head coach of the Green Army, Galtier, was shocked and immediately rushed to the command area and whistled loudly to start commanding on the spot.
Yaldim held out his hand to the side: "How?!" ”
"Smack" Caldeira and his loud high-five: "Well done!" ”
Rufeld and Perrin, who got up, both rushed to the referee to protest Li Liang's tackle just now, and the referee told them firmly: "No. 17 did not leave the ground, nor did he shine his shoe spikes, and he tackled the ball first!" ”
The replay on the big screen showed that there was no problem with the referee's decision.
Grimandi was a little excited: "Remy, I have the impression that Lee rarely seems to make such moves in attack?" ”
Gard nodded vigorously: "That's right!
Rocky (Palin) is in trouble! ”
The cheers of the whole stadium lasted for a long time, and the captain's tough performance made the fans full of confidence again!
In the 49th minute, Monaco broke the ball in front again, Silva shook and suddenly crossed, Mbappe in front of him did it back with his heel at the top of the arc, and Li Liang strode to the ball and shot directly with his right foot!
After a loud bang, in the face of the head-on ball, Rufeel did not dare to slack off, did not choose to catch the ball, but directly knocked the ball out with both fists!
Perrin barbled to save the siege, and the audience exclaimed.
Rufell made a save and raised his hand, and the referee stopped the game and boos from the stands.
Perrin stepped forward and quietly asked, "Are you alright?" Rufel, who sat up, unfastened his gloves: "Rocky, I'm afraid I'm really in trouble!" ”
The team doctor began to enter the field to deal with it, and the close-up on the big screen showed Rufel with a very painful expression.
Galtier was nervous, but after treatment, Rufell put his gloves back on and signaled that he could continue playing.
The players of the Green Army looked at each other, Li Liang's shot just now was nearly 25 meters away from the gate, and the strength was so great that the goalkeeper Rufeld was directly reimbursed for this game!
Li Liang stared at Perrin from the side, and the moment the Green Army Captain cleared the siege just now, he saw that Perrin's total rating had returned to 85.
This means that his judgment is completely correct, and after a high-intensity and continuous scramble in the first half, Saint-Etienne has ushered in a physical slump ahead of schedule.
The tough guy Perrin's "jump" has also ended, and the captain of the Green Army paid a huge price in order to limit Li Liang in the first half.
