Chapter 274: The Outer Instep of the Astonishing Four!
The sea breeze blows the horned flagpole.
Li Kang communicated a few gestures with his teammates.
Someone understands it thoroughly.
Someone didn't fully understand.
Welbeck, for example, scratched the little black egg in confusion: Is it to speed up?
It doesn't matter, though.
The course of a football game is not entirely dictated by tactics.
...
Accompanied by the referee's whistle.
The second half of the game officially began.
Arsenal possession.
Welbeck kicked off the ball and passed back to Li Kang, and then the whole person quickly rushed to the Monaco half.
The ball goes through several slow passes.
Come to the feet of Koscielny.
He is one of the world's top centre-backs in today's football.
Ball control techniques.
Monaco changed their previous low post defense and invested a lot of troops in the front court to participate in the pressing.
It's just that the intensity of the press is far less than that of Liverpool and Tottenham.
Koscielny struck a dunk and shook off Lemar to deliver a diagonal pass from mid-range.
"When a team's midfield and backfield can solve the two problems of playing the ball and counter-pressing, it is easy to form an all-round suppression."
"When did Li Kang rush to that front?"
"Welbeck is even deeper."
"Arsenal are going to give up the hypnotic pass in the first half! Grab a start to the second half! β
...
The football didn't pass to Li Kang.
It's too far.
Koscielny was not confident in his long pass and looked for Cazorla.
The Arsenal midfielder touches the ball.
Football has not yet landed.
was picked to the side of Chamberlain.
It's sped up.
"New Walcott" took the ball and kicked the turf and started a galloping run.
Oxlain didn't like the title, after all, Walcott himself hadn't become the best in the world, and he preferred to be called "New Bale", the big brother of Southampton's academy.
"Monaco is a dark horse, not only in attack, but also in defense!"
"Mendy, Bernardo Silva, Tiemoue Bakayoko form a coalition!"
"Will Chamberlain be able to rush over?"
It definitely can't be rushed.
Chamberlain's mind was not yet open, but he knew how to pass the ball.
After hesitating for two seconds, he found that his contact with Li Kang was cut off... He decisively passed back behind him!
Bellelin, who was inserted forward, raised his foot slightly.
The wide player from the La Masia Academy is equally capable of touching the ball.
The ball drew a small line and was delivered to Mertesacker.
Mertesacker has been very busy lately, not only has he taken Saka, Yin Worby, and Ronaldo to kill all sides in the EFL Cup, but he is also the "life committee" of the dressing room, responsible for managing the irregularities in the dressing room...
As soon as he stopped the ball, he saw Koscielny's hurried hand.
I didn't tell him to send it back.
It's a signal for him to hurry up and kick the big foot.
Bang!
Get in front of Mbappe's closeness.
Mertesacker sent in a high diagonal pass.
The soccer ball whistled through the night sky and flew to the left wing.
'The members of the Arsenal backline, from different countries.
"Bellelin and Monreal speak Spanish, Mertesacker speaks German, Koscielny speaks French, and Cech is fluent in all of them."
...
The quality of the pass is not high.
Fluttering falling tracks.
When Monreal and Sidibe competed, they suffered a lot.
The other party is more than ten centimeters longer than him.
Fortunately, Sidibe's stopping skills were rough enough.
After two consecutive body bumps.
The football was still controlled by Arsenal's left wing-back.
Can't hesitate.
Monaco quickly formed an encirclement on the flanks.
Monreal's foot skills are good, and his physical confrontation is insufficient, and he can't withstand a few hits from the black eggs.
Fortunately, after he stumbled out of space in a few steps, he managed to pass the ball forward.
....
Fabinho was beaten a little bit by Li Kang.
When he saw Arsenal's No. 10 receiving the ball in the 30-meter area, he did not resolutely go up, but subconsciously retreated sideways.
Who knows if that kid will come back with another long pass over the top?
When Li Kang saw the other party's move, he began to speed up.
It's not about the speed of the pass, it's about the speed of the sprint.
God's perspective.
Fabinho once again formed a three-man central defender with Jemersson and Glick to stretch the defensive width.
Alvaro Morata and Alexis Sanchez were short distances from themselves, on the left and right flanks respectively.
No problem.
Arsenal had a numerical advantage in this local attack.
"It's coming!"
"Cazorla cuts in the middle, Oxlade-Chamberlain takes Bakayoko away!"
"How did Welbeck get into the crowd..."
"Li Kang, Morata and Sanchez form a triangle that is about to carve out Monaco's defensive phalanx."
"Unstoppable!"
...
Pitchside.
Jardin's expression was slightly confused, and for a moment there was a hint of horror.
He knew how to defend himself.
But there is no remote control in the hand.
There's no way that information can be instantly transmitted to the players on the field like in a game.
Suddenly.
A small black shadow swept on the green field, so that the Monaco coach saw the surging hope!
Mbappe.
"Wow!"
"The director stretched the camera, what did we see?"
"Mbappe's return speed is too fast!"
"The running posture is full of youthful vitality!"
"His defense has been criticised but we can't expect too much from a talented 17-year-old attacker."
Mbappe is galloping in the wind, faster and faster!
Monaco's teammates were a little confused: I had never seen this kid defend so positively... Forced out by Li Kang?
...
Fabinho's IQ is very high.
Originally, he didn't have full confidence to stop Li Kang.
But it instantly became clear that Mbappe's tendency to intercept back was to interfere with Li Kang's left foot.
Didn't hesitate for long.
His eyes were fixed on Li Kang's cadence and touch distance.
Decisive robbery.
Seal his right foot!
....
Mbappe has an unusually high level of self-confidence.
But he also understands that his role on the defensive end is small.
He's not stupid.
Can't stop Arsenal No.10.
However, he must cooperate with his teammates to interfere with his ball and block the passing space.
Who is the strongest young player since Melo?
Pogba?
No.
Mbappe thinks it's himself... And Li Kang!
"Wonderful!"
"Mbappe's speed is terrifying! He caught up with Li Kang! β
"The age difference between the two rising European stars is only three months."
...
After the Tottenham battle.
The legendary module owned by Li Kang seemed to be in prostration, and he was temporarily powerless to appear suddenly.
The only thing that will never leave is the "True Eye".
When a thick black mist erupts.
Li Kang observed a change in Fabinho's center of gravity.
An emergency stop.
Dodge the opponent's kick from the front.
But it also lost the right line of contact with Morata.
The momentum has also vanished.
Mbappe is not far behind.
A bronzed forehead, reflecting the spotlight, and long dark legs cut off the pass path on the left side.
"Are you going to send it back?"
"If you rush over, this ball might..."
The sea breeze lifted the hem of the No. 10 jersey.
The phantom of the white-clothed No. 19 condensed like wild sand.
Modric.
A momentum that dominates the audience and looks down on the crowd spreads wildly.
Li Kang caught the ball line in an instant.
Ankle locked.
Toe buckle.
Homeopathic flirtatious.
The moment the ball is touched, the body completely overlaps with the phantom.
...
Syllable!
A hint of surprise flashed in Fabinho's eyes: Is Lee going to make a hard pass?
The Brazilian midfielder didn't have time to make a second tackle.
I watched as the Arsenal No.10's right outside of his right foot hit the lower middle of the ball.
Slightly raised toes...
Let his eyes be occupied by fear!
Outside instep pass!
The Stade Louis II lit up in a rainbow-like arc.
"Wow!"
"Unexpected outside instep pass!"
"A perfect line that broke the block between Mbappe and Fabinho..."
"Violent maneuver!"
"Amazing ball speed!"
"A mesmerizing trajectory like the Mona Lisa, a world-famous painting!"
"Nanny-style drop-off."
Jardine's face was horrified.
Boulder was dumbfounded.
Arsene Wenger's hand in his pocket froze instantly.
....
It's not just about breaking the block.
The rainbow trajectory also shredded the Monaco backline.
Germelsson and Glick sighed in amazement.
At the landing point, a big black light egg suddenly poked out, which made all Monaco fans fall into an ice cave!
Welbeck!
Winter!
With a muffled thud.
The soccer ball smashed into his head without a bad score.
Then it refracts the goal faster!
The violent maneuver did not stall.
Goalkeeper Subacric was a bit of a trance.
Isn't that Modric's signature outside instep? A shot line that is difficult to judge after refraction!
He subconsciously reached out his hand, but he didn't touch anything.
Look back again.
The football had crossed the goal line, and the violent maneuvers did not stop, and they were wildly entangled with the net.
0:1οΌ
The audience sighed.
...
"Gorgeous!"
"Like a brilliant jewel!"
"It's in!"
"Li Kang sent an impeccable long pass with an arc of the outside instep when the left and right were blocked!"
"Welbeck strikes with a hammer!"
'They helped Arsenal get off to a perfect start in the second half!'
"It's so tacit!"
"The Monaco defense line is helpless in the face of such a ecstatic outside instep."
"We witnessed a wonderful moment."
"We have witnessed Li Kang move towards the pinnacle of the midfield master, step by step!"
....
Live room.
Barrage flies.
- [Li Mingdeng is so handsome! ] γ
- [Arsenal +1.] γ
- [Welbeck can't spit out this cake no matter how much he spit it out, and the little plum presses his head and stuffs it! ] γ
- [I thought the protagonist would be Mbappe...]
- [Li Ming's lantern is awesome, commanding while running, and when he is blocked, he can also send an impeccable long pass with the outside instep! ] A new generation of cake feeding masters! γ
- [The team-mates are also in good position, and the two Monaco central defenders still have to guard against Oxlade-Chamberlain and Cazorla in front.] γ
- [Fabinho: What about hitting me on the top of the head?] Why don't you fight? γ
- [Arsenal this season is terrible, will the Champions League round of 16 be eliminated?] I don't believe it! γ
- [It's hard to say, if you meet Carlo Ancelotti's Bayern, Simeone's Atletico Madrid... Enough to choke. It's really possible to come across! They were all substitutes in the first two rounds of the Champions League, concentrating on preparing for the key games of the league, and may not be able to rush to the top of the group! γ
- [According to the rules of the draw for the round of 16 of the Champions League... For example, if Arsenal wins Group C, the draw will only draw the second place from the other groups! γ
- [Don't crow's mouth! Bayern are Arsenal's real nemesis... If the top 16 meet, it's really a bit hanging. γ
.....
The Arsenal fans who watched the game were mostly Gunners fan associations from all over Europe.
At the moment of the goal, they shouted with all their strength:
βe on you gunnersοΌ
οΌ β
βleeοΌ
οΌ β
βleeοΌ
οΌ β
Welbeck was so excited that he turned and ran back in a frenzy!
This thing was so excited that he picked up Li Kang.
"Lee, that's a great pass!"
"You, like my father, changed my career!"
Welbeck, whose home is just four miles from Old Trafford, is a native of Manchester who failed to play out at another club at the age of eight, and his father, Victor, hid the news from his son and encouraged him to try out at Manchester United.
All teammates surrounded each other and hugged each other tightly.
With Li Kang's Champions League journey, invincible!
Distance.
Fabinho shook his head helplessly and gave Mbappe a thumbs up.
The latter did not respond.
It's still like when I fell behind in the European Championship, picking up the football from the net... Then run back to the middle circle.
The expression was calm, and there was no frustration.
....
Pitchside.
Boulder and the bench players waved their hands.
"Lee is in control!"
"There was nothing wrong with the Monaco defensive set-up, but they were negligent with Lee's outside instep..."
"When did Lee learn this trick?"
"Watch Lee's gestures!"
"Or do you want to continue beating Fabinho at this point? Don't interrupt! Listen to Lee! β
Arsene Wenger struggled to contain the joy in his heart.
Well.
Be gracious.
In the face of the old club, you can't celebrate too exaggeratedly.
Do you want to show a look of pity?
The last time they were eliminated by Monaco, the fans sang to comfort themselves.
The other side.
Jardim quickly dissipated his frustration.
He yelled at his disciples as he changed his gestures and shouted filial piety.
It's just one goal behind.
There's still a chance!
As long as Lemar or Mbappe get the ball up front...
Gradually.
The Monaco coach was a little sad: When is it time to think about whether the attacking players can get the ball... I didn't think about it when I faced Paris, I didn't think about it when I faced Barcelona...
....
VIP box.
The Monaco royal family couldn't help but applaud.
There was not a trace of sorrow on their faces.
"It's a pity we don't have a princess of the right age!"
"Otherwise, Monaco will be able to reach the Champions League final next season!"
"What are you thinking? Trade a princess for a Champions League winner? It's just Lee's words... He will surely bring endless wealth and prestige to the royal family like his grandmother! β
"It doesn't matter, the players who grew up on the Yoon Bilian Peninsula like women who are more than a decade older than themselves."
"I heard that Lee's private life is very clean, and he didn't indulge in the drunken nightlife of London..."
It was as if everyone had forgotten that the team was falling behind.
Of course, Monaco will still have a good chance of finishing second in the group on goal difference, as long as they don't suffer a heavy defeat.
....
The referee urged the Arsenal generals to end their celebrations quickly.
Li Kang wiped the sweat from his forehead with his jersey.
Modric's mutilated module... It seems to be quite easy to use, and the load consumption on the body is also very small, and it does not produce any negative emotions.
The applicability is also wide.
Not only for passing, but also for long-range shots...
