Chapter 31: The Great Brawl between Brothers and Brothers

"Good evening to the audience, this is the fifth round of the 2014/15 Ligue 1 season brought to you by CCTV Sports Channel, Lyon hosts Monaco."

"This match is the highlight of this round of Ligue 1, and both sides are well-known teams in French football, but neither side is in a good position at the moment."

"According to the information we got before the game, Zhang Chaoqiang will still start in this game......"

At 11 p.m. BJ time on September 12, Zhang Chaoqiang's CCTV live broadcast debut arrived.

Lyon's face against Monaco is indeed a Ligue 1 powerhouse, but combined with the current standings of the two teams in the Ligue 1 standings, it is more like a brawl between the two teams.

"It's a really important game, one is in fifteen and the other is sixteen, and whoever loses is in high risk of falling into the relegation ......zone," the French commentator said thoroughly.

So Fournier takes this game very seriously.

Fekir is back from injury, which is a big plus for Lyon.

But Cameroon left-back Bedimo was injured during a national team break, which is another bad thing.

Lyon started in the same 442 formation, the midfield was still in a concave position, and Fekir replaced Malblanco as a left midfielder.

Fekir is a versatile player up front and a left-footed player, so it's a good fit to play at left midfield.

However, the injury of the main left-back gave Fournier a bit of a headache, and there was nothing suitable on the bench, so he finally arranged for the substitute right-back Zefane to try.

[You launched a stealing day against Anthony Martial, outbreak +3]

The game is about to start, and Zhang Chaoqiang steals first.

Monaco have a number of high-quality players in the squad and Anthony Martial was fortunate to be the lucky winner tonight.

Who made him explode up to 87?

Soon the game officially began, with Monaco taking the lead in attacking.

The forward trident of Ocampos, Berbatov and Anthony Martial was a real threat and quickly dominated the field.

Monaco coach Jardim clearly came prepared, eager to cut three points from Lyon's difficult brother.

Zhang Chaoqiang followed his teammates to retreat and defend, and at the same time paid careful attention.

Fight back when you have the chance!

In the 7th minute of the game, Tulalang's high ball to Berbatov was too obvious, and it was stopped by Umtiti and pushed it down early.

Tolisso got the ball and sent a long pass over the top as soon as possible.

"Good shot! Zhang Chaoqiang!! ”

"It's a counter-attack opportunity!"

Zhang Chaoqiang's prepared right side accelerated forward, lifted his foot and unloaded, and firmly controlled the ball.

Dribble forward and accelerate again!

Zhang Chaoqiang quickly crossed the half court and went straight to the opponent's penalty area.

Monaco left-back Kurzawa stepped forward to intercept, but was directly erased by Zhang Chaoqiang's heavy shoulder.

But who knew that Zhang Chaoqiang had just finished passing, and Carvalho, who had already planned it, stretched out his foot and poked the ball out of the sideline.

"Oops, that's a shame."

"Zhang Chaoqiang easily passed Kurzawa in a quick counterattack, but he didn't expect to be destroyed by Carvalho, who was in the position."

"After all, he is a defender who has played for many years in top giants such as Real Madrid and Chelsea, and he is really experienced......"

The domestic commentators are still lamenting all kinds of regrets, and the situation on the court has changed abruptly.

Lyon's counter-attack was disrupted, and Tolisso, who had followed up on the counter-attack, immediately went to the sideline to get the ball and prepared to throw the sideline ball.

At this time, Zhang Chaoqiang keenly found that Monaco seemed to be a little careless after destroying the attack, and the defense did not fall into position at the first time.

So he shouted and rushed forward decisively.

"Over here!!"

Tolisso had a tacit understanding, and immediately threw the ball out, just past the Monaco defender and in front of Zhang Chaoqiang.

The Monaco defense was broken in an instant!

"Sideline ball quick!"

"Zhang's single knife!!"

Receiving the ball right behind the defensive line, Zhang Chaoqiang rushed towards the Monaco goal.

Monaco goalkeeper Subašić scrambled towards the near post to make a block.

But Zhang Chaoqiang calmly adjusted his pace and pushed the bottom corner of the far end with his left foot.

Subabasic couldn't do anything.

The ball easily crossed the goal line and rolled straight into the net.

“Gooooooooal————”

"The ball is in! Super Strength - Zhang!! ”

"A very decisive quick sideline kick, Zhang and Tolisso worked together perfectly to break the Monaco goal with ease!"

"It's a standard lightning goal, both in terms of the way he scored and the timing of his goal!"

The moment the football rolls into the goal, the Stadium in Gerland is boiling instantly!

The sound of cheers like a tsunami sounded from all around, and the scene was hot.

The whole team of Lyon celebrated passionately, and even Fournier shook his fist and yelled: "Good ball!!" ”

At the same time, on CCTV, Yang Chen, as a special guest tonight, is commenting on the goal.

"Zhang Chaoqiang's speed is really fast, and it can be seen from the counterattack just now that his speed is no worse than those European wingers, which is really a real talent."

"To be honest, he is probably the fastest player in the history of our Chinese football."

"The key is that he is getting better and better at his skills, unlike before, he will only bury his head in the rush, he now no matter whether he dribbles, passes, or shoots, he has all practiced decently, which is rare."

"Just like this goal, he pushed it with his backfoot, but it was quite steady."

"I've been playing football for so many years, and I basically haven't seen a domestic player who can train his backfoot well, and Zhang Chaoqiang is the only exception."

"As long as he continues to play like this, I believe he will be able to play in the top giants in a few years......"

Yang Chen, as China's most successful overseas striker, was specially invited to comment on Zhang Chaoqiang tonight.

He also cooperated to do his job well, and made comments in a way that was seven points true and three points blowing.

※※※

The opponent opened the scoring in the opening seven minutes, and it was a defensive mistake by his own players who conceded the goal, and Monaco coach Jardim was so angry that he couldn't do it.

If they lose again, Monaco will really go into the relegation zone.

But he is a capable coach after all, and instead of scolding the players, he quickly called the captain of the team, Tulalang, to the sidelines and told him to stabilize the players' emotions.

By the time Lyon's celebrations were over and the game was resuming, the Monaco squad was ready to fight again.

Lyons will take advantage of the momentum of the opening goal to regain the initiative and launch a series of attacks against Monaco.

In the 11th minute, Alexandre Lacazette ran around Carvalho and into the Monaco penalty area, and Fekir immediately sent the ball over with a pick-and-roll pass.

Lacazette kicked sideways, and the ball flew off the baseline against the post.

In the 18th minute, Jordan Ferry passed the ball to Zhang Chaoqiang after passing in the middle of the field, and Zhang Chaoqiang shot in front of the penalty area like a pass to the Monaco goal.

The goal managed to bypass the Monaco defence and was extremely threatening, but it was a pity that the retreating Portuguese midfielder Moutinho got ahead of Fekir to clear the ball off the line.

After Fekir's return, Lyon's attack was noticeably smoother.

The Lyon fans cheered, and this is what the team should be playing.

And as the game went on, Monaco had unwittingly played a defensive counterattack.

In the 39th minute, Lyon planned to take advantage of another wave of attacks before the end of the first half, hoping to directly extend the score and end the first half with a two-goal lead.

But it backfired.

Monaco defended and launched a quick attack, with Anthony Martial sprinting into the half, changing direction so quickly that he almost brought down Dzefarne, who was a cameo at left-back, before setting up Ocampos for the opener.

Monaco equalised just before half-time.

'It seems that the standings are reasonable, Lyon and Monaco are really evenly matched.

While the French commentator cheered the goal, he also did not forget to ridicule the ranking of the two teams.
