When Bei Bei was messing around with his classmates at school, Zhao Yaning had already returned to Monaco and was preparing for the next game.

With Sochaux on 18 May, Guingamp on 21 May and Troyes on 25 May, Monaco still had a lot to do at the last minute.

"The best newcomer will be won when he gets it, and don't take him too seriously. Football awards, the more you win them based on your strength, the more valuable they are, and the more you win them based on your potential, the less valuable they are. It's hard to say what potential is, don't take it too seriously, you know? ”

returned to the club, Deschamps immediately found Zhao Yaning and instructed him, "Don't think that you can be a star when you win an award, you are still far away, this kind of thing is useless to you at all, it is used by the agent when negotiating with the team, you don't need it, you know?" ”

Zhao Yaning nodded, he didn't attach much importance to this award. Now there are so many things in the club, the championship is about to be contested, and compared to those, although his personal awards are also very good, but after all, Cheng Sè is not as good as the championship.

People are remembered more about the champions than the best newcomers. Moreover, although among the winners of this award, there have been superstars such as Zidane and Henry, but there are also many people who have not played out, Monaco's last winner was Philippe Cristanval, who is now extremely disappointing in Barcelona, and when he is still mentioned, he will also mention that he is the winner of the best newcomer in Ligue 1?

However, having said that, it was the individual award that brought him a star card that still made him very satisfied. This is a +1 star card, the name is 'The Emperor', but it is only a +1 stop ball, Zhao Yaning thought about it for a long time, and he couldn't connect the stop ball with the Emperor, so he had to put it behind him, thinking about how to finish the rest of the game.

And the next match is really important for him: it was his first final at the club, and it was also the first time he played at a neutral venue in a club match.

"There's no difference, it's all the same. Those who like you will still like you, and those who hate you will hate you. Playing in a neutral stadium, you don't have to worry about as many boos, but you don't have as much fan expectations, you can play more freely. ”

Before the game, Jiuli dutifully comforted Zhao Yaning, "Don't worry, Sochaux is not a strong team, as long as we let go of our hands and feet and play well, half a game will be enough." ”

Zhao Yaning has the same opinion on these, but thinking that this is the final of the League Cup, he is still a little uneasy.

After all, this is the Stade de France, arguably the biggest stadium he's ever set foot on.

He has never played in such a stadium that can accommodate 80,000 people, and the stadium in Monaco can only accommodate 18,000 people, and such a huge stadium has brought a lot of pressure to Zhao Yaning.

"Ignore them, just pretend they don't exist." In the locker room, team captain Changli was still whispering to Zhao Yaning, who was participating in a major tournament for the first time, "You treat them all as fixed machines, they applaud when you play well, and they coax when you don't play well, and that's it." And, you see, the stands are still empty, I'm afraid that there are less than 60,000 people coming to this game, what's the big deal. ”

Zhao Yaning smiled and didn't say anything more. Jiuli is used to seeing big scenes, so naturally he won't feel anything, but Zhao Yaning is facing this situation for the first time.

"Listen brother," Gyuli said, looking at the court, his voice lowered, "I played a final two years ago and here. We lost that game, we lost to Lyon. I don't know where I'm going to go at the end of the season and I don't want to stay here. ”

Zhao Yaning glanced at Jiuli, he didn't expect that Jiuli would make his words clear at this time.

But he didn't say anything more, some things can be tacitly understood.

"Okay, you don't need to explain this to me, I've even played in the World Cup, what big scene haven't I seen?" Zhao Yaning also laughed, "Don't worry, I will give you this championship as a gift." ”

"Fart, even if I won the championship, I won it myself. What does it have to do with you? Gyuli laughed, turned around, and shouted into the locker room.

"Brothers, let's take that championship back to Monaco! Let them know who is the strongest team in Ligue 1! ”

--------------------------------

Twenty minutes into the game, Monaco did not produce any successful and effective attacks.

Although he said that he was not nervous, but when he really stepped onto the competition arena, Zhao Yaning still felt a little nervous.

Not only him, but there are not many older players in the entire Monaco, whether it is Roten or Zikos, it is the first time to see this kind of scene, and Squeerage and Evra in the backfield are also the first time to participate in such a game, and their mood is also the same is a little anxious, which makes Monaco's start not very good.

But the good thing is that Sochaux played very conservatively. They didn't rush to attack after the start, but kept waiting for an opportunity at the back, which made Monaco start to catch their breath gradually, and when Zhao Yaning began to adjust to the noise around him, it was Sochaux's turn to be unlucky.

The Stade de France is larger and wider, which gives the wide players more room to play. On such a field, my breakthrough can not only directly break through the opponent's defense, but also make good use of the width of the court to tear their defense more violently, so that my own side will have a more advantageous attack.

Soon, Zhao Yaning, who figured out his advantages, was no longer nervous, he began to be active, and when he got the ball again, he also changed from passing to controlling the situation on the field to receiving the ball, and was ready to break through.

This change made Sochaux's defense immediately start to strengthen the defense.

Sochaux have defended very well this season, and they have been competing with Auxerre and Guingamp for the last European spot. If they talk about the length of the game against Monaco, they are naturally a little worse, but when it comes to holding on to 120 minutes against Monaco and then going to take penalties, they are still confident.

Of course, the fans will boo, but as long as they can win, they will be fine.

But the problem is that Monaco's strength is not so simple.

Zhao Yaning shook the ball without a pause, and inserted it towards the side. He chose to hold on to the flanks very decisively, giving Sochaux's defenders a headache all of a sudden.

Against Paris, Monaco's style of play was to push towards the middle. Zhao Yaning's several baseline insertions were unsuccessful, and he chose more rib diagonal insertions or mid-lane incisions. The way that this made Sochaux think of was to deploy a large number of manpower in the middle to prevent it, but now, Zhao Yaning's kicking style of holding the side gave Sochaux a headache.

Zhao Yaning's breakthrough ability is too strong, if he only sends one person to take care of the affairs there, if he sends one person to keep an eye on him, then it will be easy to have problems. And if you send two people, it weakens the defense in the middle too much. What's even more uncomfortable is that Roten also hugged the wing, and the two of them extended the offensive lineup to a wide range of left and right, which also gave Jiuli and Nonda in the middle a lot of space to play calmly.

And if they are left alone, then Sochaux is really not at ease. Although Zhao Yaning's long passing ability is slightly inferior, he is also a threat.

If Monaco attack urgently, then the pressure will be on Monaco, and they will make a lot of mistakes in their rush to win. But now Monaco's unhurried play on the flanks to tease the entire defence has caused Sochaux some trouble.

Coach Lacombe, who was watching the game, was a little anxious, and this was the last thing he wanted to see. He originally thought that although Zhao Yaning had a strong breakthrough ability, as an Asian, the ball quotient should not be very high, as long as he blindly hit the middle, then Sochaux would not have a problem stopping Monaco. But Zhao Yaning adjusted in such a short period of time, which made them a little anxious.

And in the midst of Monaco's attempts at a slower pace, Sochaux's defence began to fall apart.

Finally, in the 37th minute, Monaco had a good chance. Roten made a long pass and the ball didn't fall in front of the box, but towards the edge of the box. Zhao Yaning and Sochaux's defenders rushed there almost at the same time, Zhao Yaning relied on his flexibility, stretched out his legs and hooked the ball to his feet, but in the face of Sochaux's defenders' marking, he could not maintain his balance, so he could only turn around sharply and kick the ball towards the edge of the penalty area.

Gyuli rushed over and slotted a shot wide into the bottom left corner of the goal.

The goalkeeper Sochaux immediately fell to the ground and saved the ball, but a kick from Round, who was close at hand, made his efforts come to naught, and the score was instantly rewritten.

“gooooal！！！！”

For a while, there was thunder of joy on the court. It was Monaco's first goal of the game and the first goal in the French League Cup final.

"Monaco broke the deadlock first and the score was rewritten to 1:0! Roteng's wonderful planning, Zhao Yaning's beautiful save, Jiuli's long-distance shè, Roundda's supplementary shè, and the collaborative play of Monaco's frontcourt players finally changed the situation of the game! ”

Roundup made a gesture of holding the cup to the fans as a celebration, which also made the fans' enthusiasm even higher. Although the game was not over at this time, the confidence of the Monaco players was extremely high.
