Anyone who sees the scene in the away dressing room at the Stade Louis II before the players come on will be shocked and will be sweating for Monaco.

Slutsky gathered everyone together and said in a low voice: "Boys, we've played 25 Champions League games since 2011, which is amazing, isn't it?"

But in these 25 games, our record is 4 wins, 6 draws and 15 losses!

And in every 25 games, we've conceded goals!

In 11 away games, we have 1 win, 1 draw and 9 defeats......

I would like to say that the whole world now thinks that it is a big joke that CSKA Moscow is the first seeded team in the Champions League group stage.

It was also said that we should be ranked between 25 and 30 of the 32 teams participating in the Champions League......

Before he could finish speaking, there was a dead silence in the locker room, and he could see with his peripheral vision that some of the players' eyes were almost spewing fire, some were trembling slightly, and some were clattering their teeth.

Slutsky suddenly raised his voice, and he roared angrily: "I want to say yes - go to TMD history, go to TMD goal conceded records, go to TMD's weakest seeded team!"

We are the great CSKA Moscow, and no matter what has happened before, every game is a chance for us to be reborn, and it is an opportunity for us to say goodbye to the past and go to TMD! ”

The disciples had all stood up, and Slutsky, who was standing in the center, waved everyone to come closer, and soon everyone was holding each other's arms side by side.

Slutsky roared loudly: "We are not here to lose, no one wants to beat us easily, come on boys, for your dignity!"

Come, 1, 2, 3! ”

Everyone shouted at the same time: "Ulla!! "Ula !!" "Ula !!"

Everyone has their own bottom line, and when the bottom line is touched, people will react most violently.

Every football team, every player, all the effort, all the sweat and even the blood is to win, and CSKA is no exception.

These players, who have long been away from Europe's major leagues, care about honour as much as they care about their team's or their own honours.

Now they have no way back, and they have nothing to lose, as the famous English song "go big or go home" sings: go ahead or go home.

They walked out of the tunnel with a rebellious attitude, and even among the three opponents they faced in the group, the players privately thought that Monaco was the strongest, but now they were fearless against all the players of their CSKA team.

They will defend their bottom line with everything they have, their spirit and soul, and everything in tonight's Stade Louis II.

Careful preparation before the game, coupled with an unprecedentedly high morale, gave Slutsky the confidence and strength to be stronger than him in all aspects, and the talent was even more bottomless in Monaco.

In addition to the replacement of the single arrow, it was actually the same people from the previous game, but as soon as they appeared, they surprised the whole Monaco team, as if this was a brand new team!

Gremandi in the stands was even more surprised, and after countless battles as a player, he could tell at a glance that the players of the visiting team were almost about to burst into flames.

The home team kicked off, Li Liang passed the ball back to Fabinho from the center circle, and suddenly felt two or three people rush past him and pounce on the Brazilian!

After several fierce scrambles, CSKA's style of play has begun to take shape. They have learned the lessons of the previous game and have been defending with a high level of high pressing, with the main aim of completely disrupting Monaco's rhythm.

They have recognized the huge gap in strength between the two sides, especially the speed and fitness of the players on both sides, and CSKA, which is dominated by veterans, is not at all comparable to the young and vigorous Monaco, so once they get the ball, CSKA takes the initiative to slow down the tempo.

Disrupting the opponent's rhythm with ferocious pressing, and then looking for opportunities with patient attacking organization, CSKA after putting down the posture of the extremely pragmatic style of play made the Monaco team feel extremely uncomfortable.

The two back midfielders of the visiting team, Sweden international Wimbronm and Israel international Nacho, are very strategic in defending Li Liang: when one person is in the grab, the other person always pays attention to blocking Li Liang's possible ball route, and would rather let him pass back and horizontally, which is to resolutely sabotage his attempt to pass forward.

Li Liang retreats or pulls the side, and he will also encounter the opponent's group defense.

Slutsky warned his disciples in the pre-match preparations that although this Chinese player named "Li" has been unknown and does not seem so sophisticated and naïve on the court, it must be admitted that he has the ability to change the situation of the game in an instant!

Also, his off-ball running, while inefficient, can also create a huge killing chance.

For the first five minutes, the fans in the stands kept shouting desperately.

They felt tremendous pressure, and the Central Army Army, which they thought would be easily taken, unexpectedly burst out with amazing combat effectiveness, which was inseparable from the killing of Monaco with the advantage of home turf.

Netizens expressed their surprise:

"It's only been half a month, what kind of special training has the CSKA conducted? That's too fierce, isn't it? ”

"It's worthy of a fighting nation, see it, it's a fate!"

"They are the same as Saint-Etienne, and they use the whole defense to limit the play of Lee 17......"

……

If this form had been shown two weeks ago, Monaco would have been in big trouble, and Yaldim would never have dared to risk sending Li Liang, who had not fully recovered his body.

CSKA is fighting for its life, and Yaldim has warned his players in the tactical class. He is not without countermeasures - making Li Liang, who has fully recovered his physical condition and is even in better shape than before, start is his response.

Spinoli told Jardim that Li Liang is now fit enough to sustain 75 minutes of high-intensity play.

What's more, Yaldim concluded that the opponent would definitely shrink and counterattack after a period of strong attack in the opening game, after all, the whole game takes a total of 90 minutes, and no team in the world can maintain the highest intensity of the game for 90 minutes.

Li Liang is already very familiar with the characteristics of these opponents, but the intensity of the pressing he encountered still surprised him secretly, and even he was thinking, what should the CSKA do in the second half with such a desperate scramble?

Sure enough, by the 10-minute mark, CSKA's pressing intensity had dropped significantly. This was also Slutsky's strategy - after 10 minutes of onslaught, he continued to return to a steady counter-attacking style of play.

Slutsky told his players that regardless of whether the attacking strategy worked or not, they would immediately shrink their defense after 10 minutes, save their strength and then try to change.

Li Liang immediately felt that the space for movement had become larger, but it was still the same difficulty to pass the ball forward, especially if he wanted to establish contact with Falcao, who was surrounded by many people in front of him.

Li Liang immediately decided to try to open up space first, and then he could find an opportunity to pass the ball or attack the goal.

He has already established an initial understanding in the middle and on the left and right of Lemar and Silva. Especially Silva, who has become more and more proficient in transposition and passing with Li Liang.

Watching Li Liang, Silva and Lemar frequently play exquisite cooperation, the fans burst into cheers, after all, this level of wonderful ground cooperation is a scene that has not been seen in the Stadium of Louis II for a long time.

Li Liang found that his physical condition felt better than ever since he warmed up.

After Spinoli adjusted the training plan for Li Liang according to the characteristics of the youth players, Li Liang's physical fitness made an amazing breakthrough.

Correspondingly, his explosiveness and core strength of his torso have improved considerably, giving him more and more confidence in running and fighting.
