Having won two cup matches, Yunsheng was in a good mood.

Despite the winter transfer period, the main team is in good form and the young players have shown enough potential, and as they stand, Monaco's squad is enough to support the rest of the season as long as there are no very special injuries or other unexpected events.

The next cup fixture is not until late January, and Monaco's full attention is then on Ligue 1.

With the strong rise of Monaco in the second half of the first half, Yunsheng also has more expectations for the team's results in the league.

At the beginning of the season, the idea was to return to the European zone; Now that Monaco has reached its goal, the next step is to try to grab a ticket to next season's Champions League; Then it is to play every game, as for the ranking at the end of the season, or whether there is a chance to compete for the championship, Yunsheng did not think much about it for the time being.

He still thinks about it, one step at a time, don't think too much, just play every game.

Looking at the teams throughout Ligue 1, not only Monaco, but other teams are also gearing up for the second half of the season.

Several teams contending for the title are fighting hard and continue to attack for the league title.

The teams at the top of the league want to fight for a higher position and get into the European zone while guaranteeing a place in the league.

The teams at the bottom of the table will also be looking to grab as many points as possible in an effort to escape the relegation zone and ensure that they can still be in Ligue 1 next season.

On January 12, 2009, the second half of the Ligue 1 competition officially began.

In the first few rounds, Bordeaux, Marseille, Lyon, Paris Saint-Germain and many other giants all appeared, and they won the game without exception and continued to sprint.

The relegation battle between several weak brigades is also very fierce, and the situation of people turning over on their backs has occurred repeatedly.

And in this round, Monaco are challenged by Grenoble at home.

This is the second meeting between the two teams in a week.

In the French League Cup, Monaco won 3-0 away and won relatively easily.

This time back at home, Monaco has a bigger advantage.

It stands to reason that Monaco should have won more easily.

But Yun Sheng was cautious and did not relax his mind.

Before the winter break, Grenoble were 12th in the league and in the middle of Ligue 1, although the gap between the teams in the lower middle of Ligue 1 is not huge, with only six points between 12th and 19th in the relegation zone.

In the 20 rounds that have just ended, Grenoble's opponents have won one after another, instantly overtaking Grenoble, and before the start of this round, their league ranking has dropped from 12th to 15th.

In this case, if Grenoble don't pick up points soon, they could fall into the relegation zone.

In the previous cup matches, Grenoble just tried their best, but in the important relegation journey, Grenoble had to fight hard!

Therefore, Yun Sheng didn't dare to hold it up, he sent a full main lineup to play, wanting to win the opponent safely at home.

The process of the game was as expected by Yunsheng.

From the first minute, Grenoble was like going crazy.

They pressed all over the pitch and went crazy with the Monaco players.

Even if they can't get the ball, they don't let the Monaco players play and handle the ball comfortably.

In the opening 20 minutes, Monaco players were repeatedly violated and fell to the ground, and the game was interrupted several times.

Despite the fouls, none of the Grenoble players were carded.

The referee's penalty scale was loose today, which gave the Grenoble players a good chance.

Chen Tao was scrambling for a high-altitude ball in the midfield, and was poked in the waist by the opponent's small movements, which hurt for a long time.

Flamini almost had his shin cut by a spike, but thankfully he got up early and dodged the vicious tackle.

Ljungberg accelerated down the flank, was pulled to the ground by an opposing player, lost his center of gravity and rolled over and almost hit a billboard on the sidelines, but the referee only gave a verbal warning to the fouling player.

Seeing that his players were frequently violated, Yun Sheng protested to the fourth official one after another.

"Mr. Referee, our players frequently fall to the ground, and the opposing players frequently hit heavy feet, don't you do something?"

"Coach Yunsheng, please believe in the referee's decision, he must have his own considerations, and he will definitely treat this game fairly."

Listening to the fourth official's sloppy explanation, Yun Sheng rolled his eyes again and again.

Just this kind of punishment, what bullshit is fair!

Do you have to wait until our players are injured and leave the pitch before you give up your cards?

Having said that, you don't have to spend money to get red and yellow cards, why are you so picky and instigated.

It wasn't until the 37th minute of the game that the referee finally took out a yellow card and warned the opposing midfielder.

Just now, Shevchenko was fiercely shoveled to the ground by his opponent and did not get up for a long time.

Such a vicious foul action was just a yellow card.

Recoba's free-kick hit the post and unfortunately missed the chance to break the deadlock.

Yun Sheng nervously asked the team doctor on the side: "How is he?" ”

"It shouldn't be a big deal, just a slight bump to my ankle, just two days off. However, it is better for him not to play in the future, in which case the injured ankle can easily cause more trouble if he suffers a second injury. ”

Yunsheng made a very decisive decision to replace Shevchenko.

"Boss, I can still hold on!" Shevchenko was reluctant to play.

Yun Sheng shook his head and said to him solemnly: "Andre, your green shadow career is not only this game, but also more than this season, even if you risk not being able to win, I hope you are healthy." You don't have to persevere, you have to go out and recuperate. ”

Without waiting for Shevchenko to say anything, Yun Sheng had already called Dong Fangzhuo, who had warmed up in advance, over: "Get ready to play and continue to strengthen the attack!" ”

"Okay, Boss!"

Shevchenko was supported by his teammates, sat on the bench, looked at Yunsheng's back, and was full of emotion.

He's a good coach and I wish I could have been playing with this guy all the time.

However, when the season is over, Chelsea will recall me anyway, and I only have half a season left with him.

Hopefully, before I leave, I can give this team some valuable wins, preferably titles, to thank him.

Thinking of this, Shevchenko's eyes were once again on the field.

Guys, we have to give our best and win every game to keep our hopes alive.

Come on, guys!
