Chapter 411: Real Madrid's goal is always to be the champion

"I said a long time ago that this kid will definitely suffer a big loss here at Leon! Wasn't Götze much more amazing than him back then? But now what about the Götzes? Don't blow it too much, it's going to backfire. ”

"It's a flash in the pan, it's a flash in the pan, and we'll have to see it again."

"That sounds familiar... Fuck me! That's how you described Kane a few years ago, Kane is now one of the top strikers in the Premier League, aren't you still talking about a flash in the pan? ”

"No, I'll admit that this black boy seems to have some potential, but he can't match Kane's talent, right? Kane is a serious British star, can this Mbappe reach the heights of Sterling? ”

"The talent of a player who can play in the Champions League at the age of 17 will not be bad, as long as the mentality is not explosive after being suppressed by Leon today, I am optimistic about Mbappe's future growth prospects!"

……

When Mbappe on the field was being educated by Leon, fans from all over the world who watched the game were also expressing their opinions.

The 17-year-old Mbappe's performance at the beginning of today's game was amazing, and his sharp breakthrough through one side amazed countless fans.

His talent is unquestionable, although he was suddenly silent after being targeted by Li Ang, but the phrase "the future is promising" Mbappe still deserves it.

Even though there are some different voices mixed in that Mbappe is nothing more than that, more fans are still optimistic about his growth prospects.

Looking at how much Li Ang attaches importance to this kid, it is actually understandable.

There are very few offensive players who can make the current Leon work one-on-one.

In other words, when Mbappe was treated as being targeted by Leang, his growth potential had actually been recognized by most fans.

Returning to the perspective of the Monaco players on the field, when Mbappe was locked up, their first feeling was of course quite uncomfortable.

Because Mbappe is not just a simple wide pointer, he is also the second leading scorer in the Monaco team.

As Monaco's leading scorer, Falcao does not have much autonomous attacking ability, so he often needs Mbappe to help him contain the opponent's defensive energy and concentration.

Coupled with the attacking player Bernardo Silva on the other side, who is better at breaking through small areas and organizing attacks, he can not afford the tactical responsibility of breaking points and scoring forward.

So now Monaco's entire offensive system is in an awkward situation of imbalance.

It seems that only Mbappe's side has lost its tactical role, but in fact Monaco's forward threat has gone at least half.

This is also a natural flaw when it comes to building an attacking system for small and medium-sized clubs.

In a wide enough transfer market, it doesn't take much money to combine attacking players with different technical characteristics to form a good forward trident.

Monaco is one of the luckier clubs.

In addition to spending a lot of money on the introduction of Falcao that year, Bernardo Silva is the attacking core that they gambled for more than 10 million, and Mbappe is an excellent youth training cultivated by themselves.

So in the process of rebuilding the offensive system, Monaco can be regarded as picking up two big bargains.

However, the rebuilt system front line also has the defect of "cannot be split".

Because each of the strikers in it is only responsible for part of the offensive duties, a breaking point, a leading scorer in the penalty area, and an offensive playmaker.

If one of them is missing, it means that this offensive system is missing this part of the offensive function.

Just as Bernardo Silva was unable to take over the tactical responsibility for the breaking point from Mbappe, Mbappe was unable to complete the task of attacking the organization like Bernardo Silva.

At least he doesn't have the ability to do that now.

Falcao can only wait for his teammates to find a way to complete the ball and continue to feed him offensive shells.

If you change to Real Madrid, you won't have such troubles.

Whether Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema or Gareth Bale are sidelined, the remaining two strikers will be able to take on the tactical responsibilities of their teammates.

All three can enter the penalty area to act as an endpoint, or they can pull the side to act as a breaking point, and they can even retreat to organize an attack.

So even with one less starting striker, Real Madrid's attacking system can still function fluidly.

As long as a suitable substitute player is added, then the offensive power can still be guaranteed.

And Real Madrid paid a real money transfer fee in the unit of 100 million!

Monaco don't have too much transfer money, so they can only take such tactical risks.

It's good to say that there is no one to target on weekdays, but now the attack on one side is paralyzed, and they can only rely on their head coach Yaldin to find a way.

It's not that Jardim is completely out of the box, but now that the game has only just begun, he really doesn't want to expose the tactical chassis right now.

"Maybe we can wait?"

Jardim was a little hesitant in his heart, he felt that he could give his disciples more trust in the field, believing that they could survive at least 20 minutes of difficult time.

But it was his hesitation that made Monaco unable to shrink the formation in time and unify the defensive thinking after the offensive failure.

As a result, Real Madrid quickly broke the balance of the game after increasing their counter-attack.

Leon's retreat stare to kill Mbappe's play, so of course, Real Madrid's counterattack direction is launched from the paralyzed road of Monaco!

Seeing the junior players of the same type shining on the field, although the expression on Bale's face is still very calm, his heart is already hot and restless!

Real Madrid's counter-attacking shells were almost all handed over to the right side, and Bale and Carvajal also lived up to expectations, cooperating in the 17th minute of the first half, and finally sent a fatal pass by the in-cut Bale!

And after Benzema shook a shot in the middle of the penalty area, Real Madrid's finishing weapon also shined again.

Cristiano Ronaldo overtook Polish centre-back Glick with an astonishing jump and then smashed the ball into the Monaco goal with a powerful header!

Subacric raised his hand to block the ball like a French military salute, and he really didn't have a good way to face this close header and could only say that he did his duty as a goalkeeper.

The balance of the game was broken, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored consecutive goals in the Champions League group stage, also showed his style as the king of the Champions League!

Li Ang watched this scene and was happy for Ronaldo from the bottom of his heart, but at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh the inertia of fate.

Because in his memory, this season's Ronaldo was also very slow to heat up in La Liga for various reasons.

However, in the Champions League knockout round, Ronaldo played bravely, and finally reversed Messi to the top of the Champions League scorer list.

Li Ang has the impression that Zidane's rotation of Ronaldo after coaching is equivalent to helping Ronaldo complete another transformation of his playing style, and also prolonging Ronaldo's career in disguise.

Now it seems that even if Ronaldo, who has not experienced a major injury in the European Cup final in 16 years, he is still bound to embark on the old path of transformation because of the invasion of time.

Perhaps for Ronaldo, who is still arrogant now, such a transformation is bound to be painful.

But this rotation strategy of "light league and heavy Champions League" did maximize his finishing power.

"Everyone has to be old, but I don't know what kind of new style of play I should adapt to when I reach the end of my career?"

While celebrating with his teammates, Li Ang couldn't help but think of his own career and future in his heart.

But thinking of the performance that Ronaldo and Modric can still show when they are approaching 40 years old in the future, Li Ang is no longer entangled in his heart...

Jardin's tactical mistake was a devastating blow to Monaco, and the goal also made the Monaco boss give up those unrealistic illusions and dare not hesitate too much.

Soon, Monaco took the lead in changing formations, changing from the starting formation of 433 to playing the classic anti-counter 442.

Mbappe's position has also changed from a left winger to a second striker.

From the edge to the center, Mbappe not only broke away from Leang's defensive zone, but also further got closer to Falkoul, and the two could get in touch and cooperate more directly.

Bernardo Silva has reverted to his more familiar position on the right side of midfield.

Moutinho is on the left and he is on the right, and neither of them is a big flashpoint on the wing, but they both have excellent attacking playmaking.

This also greatly freed up Fabinho and Tiemoue Bakayoko in the middle, and the two tall midfielders who did not have to take on the responsibility of playmaking could devote more energy to intercepting in the middle and attacking forward.

With this change of formation, Mbappe is back in the game, and Monaco has greatly strengthened the team's counter-attacking ability.

Carlo Ancelotti had to applaud his opponent's tactical change.

But, there's a catch.

Why does Jardim think that Real Madrid, who have taken the lead, will attack aggressively and give Monaco space to counterattack?

An Fat didn't have much interest in setting up the bus in the first half of the game, but as a well-known Italian coach, his anti-counterattack skills are also very solid.

So after he made the same timely tactical adjustments, Real Madrid quickly shrunk the formation, opened the midfield channel, and signaled that Monaco could continue their attacking performance~

This scene made the vast majority of Monaco fans impatient.

Shouldn't you take advantage of the victory after taking the lead? Step up the attack, hey! You're Real Madrid, why are you playing so obscenely?!

The Melingers were smiling soundly in front of the TV.

Yes, you're all right, but Real Madrid is playing away from home today, so you need to show respect for the home team, come on, it's time for you to attack!

Monaco's players also played awkwardly.

After they changed the formation, they originally wanted to wait for Real Madrid to strengthen their attack and then find an opportunity to counterattack.

But now Real Madrid has also put on a posture of defending and counterattacking, so how to play next?

You can't Real Madrid not attack, they don't attack themselves, right?

Monaco's head coach Carl Jardim has learned what Ancelotti is all about.

Seeing that the other party was not fooled at all, in desperation, Jardim could only signal the disciples on the field to take the initiative to attack!

Such a situation is extremely comfortable for the whole Real Madrid team.

There is no need for Ancelotti to provide any more tactical guidance, and the former Real Madrid players who have a deep sense of counter-attacking in their heads know how to deal with their opponents at this time with their eyes closed!

And in the 36th minute of the first half, Real Madrid, which seized the opportunity to switch between attack and defense, also succeeded in the next city!

This time, it was Leon who fired a long-range shot from the counter-attack, and after the ball hit the post, Benzema picked it up and sent it into the Monaco goal again.

Li Ang, who unexpectedly received an assist statistic, smiled, and Benzema, who missed a goal, was even more happy, and repeatedly told his teammates that it was time to run.

After only one or two games of adaptation at the start of the season, he started scoring consecutive goals, and he was lucky enough to miss goals in quick succession!

For Benzema, isn't that the time to go!

Li Ang originally wanted to interject and say that it was because Guo Feng was in a comfortable state of mind now, so the whole person's goal state was also played.

But looking at Guo Feng's appearance of thanking the "steaming master" (anti-river crab), he still closed his mouth in interest.

With a two-goal lead at half-time, Real Madrid perfectly achieved the goal set before the game.

For the rest of the first half, Real Madrid was in a shrinking formation and defending.

And when the second half of the game started, the whole Real Madrid team once again forced the start, completely disrupting the rhythm of Monaco's counterattack.

The two teams engaged in a fierce battle for possession in the midfield, and it was not until the 60th minute of the second half that Real Madrid took the initiative to end the chaotic battle and return to the rhythm of the game.

Monaco was not willing to let its time go through the drain to complete failure.

Most of their attacking players are young and have no fitness issues at the start of the season.

Therefore, after the whole team determines the idea of attacking to the end, a powerful impact force can be exploded!

Fight for the ball, advance quickly, and after a round of attack, once again participate in the fierce competition for the ball.

Monaco's young players seem to be tireless in their assault on Real Madrid's solid backline.

In the midst of the chaos, Bernardo Silva hit the ball on Ramos' calf with a volley from a small angle, and the ball refracted and finally bounced into Real Madrid's goal!

By this time, the game had reached the 82nd minute of the second half, and Monaco, who had pulled one goal back, was full of morale and wanted to seize the last bit of time to try for an equalizer.

But at the critical moment, the stars on Real Madrid's side, who are used to seeing wind and waves, are still very calm.

No one seemed flustered, and Real Madrid continued to consolidate their defence.

It's just that when they continued to increase their defensive efforts, Real Madrid's midfielders did not forget to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

In the prayers of countless Melinger, Leon, who was still quite physical, stepped forward again, and at the critical moment, he made a decisive move and snatched the ball at the feet of Mbappe's forced breakthrough!

The counterattack also starts from this moment!

Leon's long pass accurately found Benzema, who retreated to respond, and the French center chose to ferry the header and smoothly transition the ball to Marcelo who was inserted despite the defensive interference of the opponent's defender!

Marcelo changed direction past Bakayoko, who pressed forward recklessly, and then poked the ball again to Ronaldo, who continued to cut forward.

And Ronaldo didn't take the ball all the way to the end, and after a little observation, he sent a close slash across the width of the court!

The ball skimmed quickly on the turf, dodging two Monaco defenders and reaching Bale's feet on the other side.

I don't know how many fans in front of the TV are excited to climax at this moment with this extremely beautiful pass!

Bale received the ball and continued to dribble down the ball, and finally chose to cross the inverted triangle when he was about to face up to Monaco centre-back Glick.

The ball finally rolled to the middle of the pitch, and two steps outside the arc of the Monaco penalty area, Leon opened his bow and fired another unreasonable heavy cannon to the goal!

He hit the post in that long-range attempt in the first half, and this time, instead of going for too much angle, he increased the power indoctrination!

The football made a terrifying muffled sound in the air and roared straight towards the Monaco goal!

Subaquic could only subconsciously make his own save choice, he could not observe the flight trajectory of the football, because the speed of Leon's heavy cannon attack was too fast!

Stretch and straighten your arms.

The Croatian goalkeeper felt the firm touch of the ball on the palm of his hand for a moment, but before he could rejoice, the ball was out of his control again.

"Get rid of it!"

Subabasic's heart sank!

And then, thousands of Real Madrid fans cheered passionately!

"The ball is in——!!! Ang Lee——!!! He scored an absolute world wave!! Even though Subasic had already pounced on the football, the terrifying power of this long-range shot still made the Croatian goal miss out! Oh, God! This will definitely be the most exciting goal of this round of Champions League group stage! Heavy artillery from Leon bombarded the door!! ”

The commentator of Sky Sports England is already at a high point in his emotions!

Even if Leon is no longer representing the Premier League in the Champions League, he is still willing to give him a sensual compliment for Leon's performance on the field!

After confirming the goal, Leon made a cool new celebration.

He first slapped his strong thighs at the live camera, and then made a sharp move to pull the bolt!

The cannon in the world lives up to its name!

This goal not only knocked off Subaic's confidence in saving, but also directly destroyed the equalizing hopes of all Monaco players!

Leon's long-range shot was too ruthless.

After celebrating with his team-mates, Leon could even feel the resentment in the eyes of the young Monaco players looking at him opposite.

It seems that today's "education class", Li Ang has indeed impressed these young juniors~

The remaining game time was no longer difficult for Real Madrid, and soon, after two minutes of stoppage time, the referee on duty blew the whistle for the end of the game!

With two consecutive wins in the Champions League group stage, Real Madrid firmly established the first place in the group.

Regardless of the final result of the match on the other side, Real Madrid can lead the group by one win.

This result made the whole Real Madrid team feel comfortable.

In the post-game congratulations and interviews with reporters, Li Ang did not hide it, and directly revealed the team's lofty goals for this season.

"We want the title, whether it's La Liga or the Champions League, because we represent Real Madrid, and Real Madrid's goal is always to win it!"
