On the evening of April 23, the Parc Olympique de Lyon was lit up with people.

The highlight of the 34th round of Ligue 1 in 2016/17 is on the horizon, with Lyon hosting league leaders Monaco.

The match attracted a large number of home fans, and the stadium was already full as the game was about to begin.

Grimindy went to watch the other teams play, and Garde and the other two hurried to the stands. As the club's former decorated coach, Remy Gard has always been a popular figure here, and their seats have been arranged in VIP seats.

The two people around him were recognized by the surrounding fans almost at the same time, and there was a burst of cheers and applause!

A former Lyon player who has played here and left a legacy of brilliance, Juventus midfielder and Bosnian international Milaram Pjanic felt like he was back in his good days in Ligue 1, smiling and waving to the enthusiastic home fans, which immediately drew even louder cheers.

The tall Juventus and Italian national team captain next to him, the main goalkeeper Gian Luigi Buffon, was also recognized by many fans, and he also greeted the fans in a friendly manner.

Juve will host Genoa in Serie A this round, Juventus have been rested for three consecutive weeks and two games a week, Gianluigi Buffon is not in the squad for the game, and Pjanic is suspended for accumulating yellow cards.

Pjanic contacted his mentor Gaard, who had been with Lyon, and the three agreed to watch the game together.

The commotion in the stands caught the attention of the director, and soon there were close-ups of Pjanic and Buffon on the big screen at the stadium.

Seeing his familiar former protégé Buffon, Gaudino, who was sitting in the stands on the other side, laughed and knew that Juve could never have sent only two players, just as Jardim had already ruled out a team of observers to rush to Turin.

The pre-match warm-up between the two sides was over, and everyone returned to their respective dressing rooms.

This is the third time Li Liang has come to this modern stadium, the first time as a spectator, and the second time he has personally lifted the French Cup here.

Before warming up, he met old acquaintances Tolisso and Lazecut, who both congratulated Li Liang on his wonderful performance in the Champions League.

Holding Li Liang's hand, Tolisso smiled: "Li, I wish you to defeat Juventus."

However, please leave these 3 points for today! ”

The hands of the two were working at the same time, and Li Liang also replied with a smile: "Thank you, Colendin!"

Forgive me for not being able to do what you want, we will definitely win! ”

When he warmed up, he remembered the unforgettable fierce battle with Grand Paris on this familiar venue, Li Liang couldn't help but boil his blood, but he quickly returned to reality and sighed secretly.

In his pre-departure conversation at the Yaldim office, he had already heard the Portuguese's implication that the team would have to forfeit the remainder of the French Cup.

Although he was very reluctant, and although Li Liang still wanted to compete with the stars of Grand Paris again, he knew that the frequent competitions during this period had kept the whole team at the limit for too long.

Now Monaco has relinquished the top spot in the league with one game in hand, Grand Paris is in first place with 80 points, and Nice has 74 points and Monaco is only one game away.

Monaco's goal of winning the league is seriously threatened by these two old rivals, and the slightest carelessness will lead to a complete failure in the half of the season.

After the draw results of the Champions League top 4 came out, most of the voices in the outside world believed that this time in front of the powerful Juventus, who had just successfully eliminated Barcelona, Monaco's youth storm was difficult to perform a miracle again.

Jardim did not specify how he would prepare for the two-legged tie against Juventus, and Li Liang could not guess what the Portuguese was thinking.

After a difficult and painful choice, Li Liang still decided to choose to participate in the match against Lyon.

Yaldim was relieved: "Lee, I can tell you now, counting you, we will rest all the main players in the semi-final of the French Cup against Paris.

This is the only viable option for the club at the moment.

I'll have you start tomorrow's game! ”

……

Li Liang began to observe the opponent's practice with the ball, and he believes that Tolisso and Lacazette, who have also performed well this season, must have risen quite a bit in their overall ratings.

Sure enough, Lacazette's total rating has reached an astonishing 92, and Tolisso has also reached 90!

Former Manchester United star Depay of the Netherlands, who will start the game, has reached 86, centre-back Nkouru has reached 84 and Portuguese goalkeeper Lopes has also reached 85.

There is no doubt that Alexandre Lacazette and Tolisso are the absolute heart of the current Lyon team.

Lyon lined up 433 in this game, with Lacazette and Tolisso leading the starting lineup.

Although Lyon are now fifth in the league with 54 points, 20 points behind Nice, who are in third place with 74 points, and have already confirmed that they will miss out on next season's Champions League fixture, the game against Monaco never needs to be mobilized.

From the club's president's fiery businessman Aulas, down to every player and even every home fan at the Parc Olimpico stadium, there is a desperate desire to beat Monaco, the best performer in Ligue 1 this season, in the upcoming match.

……

In last night's temporary tactics class, Yaldim consulted everyone, and everyone unanimously agreed that Li Liang would continue to serve as captain.

Everyone in the away team's dressing room has been dressed, and Falcao is helping Li Liang to tie the captain's armband.

The tiger patted Li Liang on the shoulder: "Li, please be calm, this is just a very ordinary game for us!" ”

Li Liang straightened his sleeves and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my captain!"

We're going to win against them anyway, that's my only goal!" ”

Soon everyone gathered around Li Liang, and he and everyone hugged each other's shoulders and gathered together.

Li Liang said loudly: "Counting this game, we are still 6 games away from the league championship!"

Do you remember our oath after the last loss to them? We've never lost a game in the league again!

Just win these six more games and we'll be crowned!

Let's start with Lyon—"

The picture has switched to the scene, and Tang Meng began to understand: "Ladies and gentlemen, what you are watching now is a highlight of the 34th round of this season's French Football League brought to you by Seven Star Sports, Lyon is at home against Monaco.

This game will have me and Lu Yue explain it to you. ”

Lu Yue continued: "Now we see that the players of both sides have played, and Li Liang will continue to be the captain of Monaco in today's game.

I would like to say that in his first season in Monaco, Li Liang continued to refresh the imagination of the outside world to win the trust and love of the club and fans.

Since the last game against Dort, he has worn the captain's armband, which also means that Li Liang has become the absolute leader of this Monaco team! ”

After a simple pre-match session, players from both sides stood on the pitch waiting for kickoff.

Tang Meng took a deep breath: "Okay, the game will start immediately!"

Let's focus on the field! ”
