Monaco's second corner kick was not taken out by Chu Zhongtian, and Adebayo finally fought desperately to get a header, but under Chu Zhongtian's interference, he headed it high.

The commentator's assessment of the ball was: "...... Bam Adebayo is not good at heading in the first place, so look at him to get the ball. ”

The two of them completely ignored Chu Zhongtian, who had squeezed Adebayo below.

However, after Adebayo landed, he angrily complained to the referee that Metz's number 30 carried him below.

"If it weren't for him pushing my waist, how could I have pushed the ball so high?"

The referee ignored him.

Adebayo turned his head and glared at Chu Zhongtian, who looked at him without backing down.

Maybe Adebayo was very popular here before, but now he is an enemy, and if he is an enemy, there is no need to say anything.

After the corner, full-back Patrice Evra, who was broken away by Ribery at the last minute of the game, was replaced by Jimmy. Juan (jimmy_juan). This is a midfielder who looks unwilling to take a point away from home and will be hoping to take all three points against a modest Metz.

For the rest of the day, Monaco bombarded the Metz half in the hope of scoring another goal, while Metz returned to defend in full force, and even players like Franck Ribery had to run back to help defend because he would not have been able to touch the ball for minutes on end.

But it can be seen that Ribery is not good at defending at all, except for running after the opposing player, he fouls from the side behind. Monaco won several set-pieces in a row in the final moments, but they failed to take a single chance, allowing Chu Zhongzenith to go out twice.

In the 89th minute, the fourth official held up a sign for stoppage time on the sidelines, telling everyone that there were three minutes of stoppage time in the game.

Didier Deschamps got up from his seat and walked to the sidelines, with less than four minutes to go until the end of the game, and the score was still 1-1, and he was a little anxious. It is already two points behind Lille and Lyon, and if this game cannot be won again, the points gap will be widened.

Fernandes has been on the sidelines since the team equalised. He didn't want to beat Monaco in the last minute, he knew his team's weight, and he was content to be able to equalise in the 83rd minute after being down by one goal. His fear now is that he will fall short in stoppage time and not get that point.

Judging from the game report of Chu Zhongtian's reserve team given to him by Tadio, Chu Zhongtian did not have many opportunities to play in the attack, but he performed well in defense, so that the head coach of the second-tier team, Pinault, imagined that Chu Zhongtian was fixed on the defensive end.

But if that's the case, what's the point of lending him to cultivate?

Defensively, he can only improve through the game, but there is still a lot of talent waiting to be discovered in offense...... It's like an associated mine, and when people are happy about the shallow deposits, there is another ore that is even more impressive underneath.

It's just that Rome wasn't built in a day, and the meal had to be eaten bite by bite. So far, I can only count on Chu Zhongtian's defense.

After a successful defence by the Metz team, the football fell to the feet of Ribery.

Ribery was like a full-powered Ferrari car, changing his clumsiness in defence, turning around and taking the ball out on his own – he wanted to win when almost the whole team was thinking about a draw.

Unfortunately, his ideas didn't fit in with his teammates, and by the time he had already crossed the halfway line, none of Metz's players had followed.

Chu Zhongtian originally wanted to go up to support Ribery, but after thinking about the assistant coach's previous instructions, he looked at his position - central defender. Forget it, if Ribery concedes a goal in the middle of the game, we will have one less centre-back in front of goal.

After taking the ball to Monaco's 30-metre zone, Franck Ribery finally lost the ball in the middle of three defenders due to a lack of support.

Monaco hit the counter-attack after breaking the ball.

Ribery ran back to chase the ball.

Although he is now at the heart of Metz, he is still as desperate and hard as ever on the field.

Adebayo pulls out to ask for the ball from his teammates.

The football was passed through several Monaco players before being passed to Adebayor by Sierra Leonean striker Caron (mohamed_kallon).

Adebayo, though tall, is not as clumsy as Ribery has previously claimed. In fact, he is very fast and has a lot of skill on his feet.

When Adebayo was still outside the penalty area, Chu Zhongtian pressed out, and as soon as the opponent received the ball, he was sideways in front of him - he was used to playing in the back midfield, and often pressed forward to grab, anyway, there was a central defender behind the back to protect him...... But he forgot that he is now a centre-back, and he needs to protect others, not throw his back to his teammates.

"There's an opening behind the back of the back line!" The TV announcer shouted excitedly.

"What the hell!" Assistant Coach David. Carré couldn't help but curse. In his opinion, Chu Zhongtian's robbery was too reckless!

Adebayo obviously also saw the vacancy behind Chu Zhongtian, at this time, as long as his teammates inserted it diagonally from the side, he would push the pass in a straight line...... Succeed with flying colors!

Just when Adebayo was about to do this, the ball at his feet was stabbed by Chu Zhongtian, who was fast!

"Wow! Adebayo is distracted again! He was a little bit observant and completely forgot to pay attention to the ball at his feet! Could it be that the sudden vacancy made him get carried away? The narrator teased the rising star, who was no longer a new star.

Carré let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, that Chinese Chu successfully broke the ball, but in any case, this is a reckless act that should be criticized!

Chu Zhongtian, who broke the ball, originally wanted to pass the ball forward and counterattack. But when I looked up, there was no one in front of me, and even the most active Ribery didn't have the physical strength to sprint up at this time. He had to change his mind and pass the ball horizontally. He didn't dare to let the football stay at his feet for too long, because the opposing midfielders were already rushing up with murderous vigour.

After passing the ball, Chu Zhongtian ran backwards back into the penalty area.

Goalkeeper Wenbi shouted at him from behind: "Don't be so reckless, Chu! Watch behind you! You're a centre-back now! ”

Chu Zhongtian turned around and waved at him, signaling that he knew.

In fact, the moment he pounced just now, he knew that he was reckless, but in that case, he couldn't turn back halfway, which was a big taboo. The best thing to do is to stick a rod in the end - he just rushed up and stretched out his foot to break the ball. Unexpectedly, Adebayo patronized and observed the space behind him, and his mind was full of what he would do if a teammate was diagonally inserted into the penalty area at this time, so that he easily stabbed the ball.

Now Chu Zhongtian thought of such an easy defense, and he was still a little surprised-Adebayo, who is considered to be Kanu's second, is at this level?

If Adebayo knew that he was despised by a nobody, he would definitely be furious and would be about to kick Chu Zhongtian.

It's a pity that he doesn't know anything.

※※※When the injury time entered the last minute, everyone's physical strength was running out, and Chu Zhongtian, who was replaced last, was still alive.

Bam Adebayor again had his back to the ball outside the box, and when his defender, Metz midfielder Leka, thought he was going to break through, but he suddenly gave the ball away before turning and running inside.

Diego who receives a pass from Adebayo. Perez (diego_fernando_aguado_perez) didn't let the ball stay at his feet for a second longer, he sent the ball diagonally out and the target was Adebayo who burst into the box!

It was Chu Zhongtian's turn to appear as a central defender.

When Perez passed the ball inside, Chu Zhongtian had already pounced from the middle to the side of the penalty area. Ball to man!

Bam Adebayo glanced back at the pass and was ready to get it down the way before shooting straight at goal.

Just as he was casting his gaze on the ground in front of him, he saw the Mace 30 drill out again.

This time it's a nice sliding shovel!

Chu Zhongtian shoveled Perez's pass before Adebayo received the ball, and he even slid the ball in front of Adebayo. Adebayo picked up his foot but kicked it into the air!

Having lost his centre of gravity, Bam Adebayo collapsed in the penalty area, and for the first time in the stands at the Holy Hill Furien Stadium, boos rang out against Adebayo, although it was far from "spectacular".

The Monaco players were raising their hands to take the referee's penalty, while Franck shook his fingers vigorously to signal that his team-mate had not committed a foul.

Off-the-field assistant coach David Metz Carré was scared enough, but fortunately he soon saw the referee signaling Adebayo to get up, and then he sighed: "This kid's defense is really scary......

'He's very active, but it really looks like he's only going to be a cameo at centre-back once in a while, and he's still in midfield...... 'Bruno Fernandes said from the sidelines.

Monaco coach Didier Deschamps saw that the referee did not give the team a penalty, and angrily waved his arms on the sidelines in protest: "This is not a foul, so what is a foul?!" ”

The TV commentators initially thought it was a foul and even claimed it would be a high-profile and controversial post-match decision. But after watching the slow-motion replay, the two were silent for more than ten seconds before they had to admit: "The tackle of the No. 30 player of the Metz team was very clean...... Although it looks dangerous. ”

Adebayo insisted that his fall was a foul by Chu Zhongtian, and he pulled the referee to ask for an explanation, but was shown a yellow card by the referee because of the chatter and the disrespectful words in his mouth.

When he insisted on taking the penalty, he completely forgot that he had been part of the Metz team.

The stands once again booed him - how can you say that you are also from Mace, do you still want Mace to lose?

Ribery ran back and high-fived Chu Zhongtian: "Well done, hehe!" ”

I don't know why, he can't get used to Adebayo, maybe because in the first 80 minutes of this game, Adebayo stole his limelight...... ※※※ The last duel between Adebayo and Chu Zhongtian in this game took place at the last moment of the game. Monaco attacked, and the game was already in the 93rd minute, which meant that the referee could blow the whistle at any time.

It was Bam Adebayo who picked up the ball again, and since Chevanton was substituted in the 71st minute, Adebayo has been Monaco's main attacker.

This time, he finally used his foot skills and long legs to temporarily shake off Chu Zhongtian, but he didn't dare to bring more, and just shook out of the space, he shot directly outside the penalty area. The football was of course biased and high, and did not pose any threat to the goal guarded by Humbi.

After Bam Adebayo fired the ball away, the referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game.

"Ah, it's over! Although we expected Monaco to not be able to take all three points at home to Metz, it was a dramatic process. Adebayo opened the scoring and Metz didn't equalise until the 83rd minute. At the last moments, Monaco bombarded the Metz team indiscriminately, but they did not break through the door of Metz. Didier Deschamps' side had no choice but to return to Monaco with a point. ”

※※※ A thunderous victory sounded in the stands of the Holy Mountain Furien Stadium for this draw. They saw the effort of the players, especially in the final moments.

Delphin. Mathilde had heard someone around her talking about the 30 who had been replaced at the last minute but had been saved many times.

"I heard that the club rented a Chinese in the summer, but I didn't care. Now I think I should go to the training ground and see more of what he does. ”

"What's that name of the 30th?" 'Pig' or 'poke'? ”

'But to be honest, I think he's a bit reckless at centre-back...... But it doesn't matter! We didn't concede any more goals and that's all that matters! ”

"I almost had a heart attack in the last three minutes...... Hell ...... That number 30 is not bad! ”

"But we should continue to observe him and draw conclusions."

Mathilde had the feeling that her friend had been complimented, and although she didn't know the ball and wasn't a Metz fan, she was in a good mood now, just like the Metz fans around her.

But in fact, she and Chu Zhongtian are not friends.

She stood in the high stands, looked at Chu Zhongtian, who was celebrating the draw with her teammates in the field, and applauded him.

She didn't understand football, but she thought that this applause was what Chu Zhongtian deserved because he worked so hard.

※※※Although he only played nine minutes of the game, Chu Zhongtian's performance helped the team get a point. He still looked excited.

Ribery came up and high-fived him: "Well done, man! You made that Togolese completely lose his temper, ha! ”

Hearing him mention Adebayo, Chu Zhongtian turned his head to look over. Bam Adebayo was speaking to reporters on the sidelines and seemed completely unaffected by the draw, even with a smile on his face.

I worked so hard to keep a point, and people don't seem to value it.

It's normal for a strong team to get stumbled once in a while, and they can afford to fall anyway.

This is the home of Metz, and he is a player of Metz, and he is just an obscure supporting actor in this game.

After applauding and thanking the fans in the stands, Chu Zhongtian went into the passage. As he passed by Adebayo and the group of reporters, he heard Adebayo saying, "Yes...... Yes, it feels great to be back at the Holy Mountain Furien Stadium again...... I didn't expect the fans here to be so enthusiastic about me, and I'm so grateful to them...... I didn't celebrate the goal because I used to be a player for Metz...... Thankfully, it ended in a draw, otherwise I wouldn't have known what to do with the Metz fans......"

※※※When Chu Zhongtian made his first appearance in Ligue 1, although his performance was not bad, he did not become famous because of it. The French media did little to cover him, except for a lot of hype about Adebayo's return home.

And the Chinese media didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to appear in the squad for the game, and even play, but they didn't react. Later, they finally found this inconspicuous news from the relevant reports of their French counterparts. Only then did they swarm to announce to Chinese fans:

Chu Zhongtian got his first chance to play in the last round of Ligue 1!

At first, Chinese fans thought they had been given a "chance to start", only to find out that they were mistaken in their excitement, that it was their first appearance, and that they only played in the last nine minutes of the game.

Because of the lack of detailed descriptions in the media, Chinese fans thought that it must have been a dumpster time and did not pay much attention to it.

"The Chinese media just like to make a big fuss, and the ball can be blown to you as 'combing the team's midfield in an orderly manner', and if you win with the team, it must be 'leading the team to victory', what if you don't play and the team loses? 100% 'xxx didn't play and caused the team to lose the game'...... It sucks! I, a Chinese, can't stand it! ”

There are even people who think that Chelsea FC must have exerted influence on Metz FC and asked them to guarantee Chu Zhongtian's appearances in Metz, and Metz had no choice but to deal with Chelsea in this way.

But in fact, there is no clause in the loan contract between Chel and Metz that "guarantees the number of appearances of Chu Zhongtian". Roman Abramovich is busy buying up established stars everywhere, and Mourinho doesn't look down on a low-level player like Chu Zhongtian at all. Who would take special care of a nobody?

There may be only a few people in China who are very interested in this inconspicuous little news, and Chu Zhongtian's father and mother are two of them. They cut out the news from the newspaper and pasted it in a notebook to make a newspaper clipping. This news was preceded by domestic reports of Chu Zhongtian making a splash in the FA Cup and signing for Chelsea. In fact, they don't have to know their son's situation in France in this way, because they have a video call with their son every week, and they tell them all about their son in the video call. They just wanted to use newspaper clippings to record their son's career in professional football.

Xu Xiaodi was heartbroken after learning about the domestic reaction to the game - if he was there, those nine minutes would surely be the focus of attention of domestic fans...... He wanted to apply for a transfer back to France, but he had just been in London for a few days and had to leave, so it was obviously impossible to do so.

He could only search for reports from France on the Internet, but the bad thing was that the French media didn't care about a small Chinese substitute player at all, and just said about Chu Zhongtian's performance in this game: "First appearance, decent performance." "That's a jack-of-all-trades!

CCTV Sports Channel has the right to broadcast Ligue 1, but their broadcast signals are provided by the French side, so they have no way to decide which team's game to broadcast. Basically, the French side tells them which team's game will be broadcast the next week, and they will broadcast the game of which team. If Chinese fans want to see Chu Zhongtian on live TV, it's like hitting the luck, maybe one day you turn on the TV to watch the Guanjia game and see the game being broadcast in Metz, and if you're unlucky, maybe you can't come across a game in Metz for five consecutive weekends on the sports channel.

Therefore, although Chu Zhongtian has played his first Ligue 1 game in France, his influence is minimal, and his situation has not changed much.

He remained dormant in obscurity, waiting for his opportunity.
