Chapter 175

Porto's lead aroused the crazy counterattack of the Monaco, which is not surprising, after all, the French did not want to lose this game.

This kind of counterattack is inevitable, but the defense and offense of the two teams are a bit chaotic because of Lin Yi's sudden goal.

The Monaco didn't expect to fall behind so quickly. Similarly, the Porto people didn't have the prophetic ability to foresee that they could score goals in the opening game.

Anyway, after the game restarted, the reactions of the two teams were a bit confused, and the offense and defense were a bit chaotic, which also gave Jiuli a lot of opportunities.

Moreover, Monaco's offense is targeted to a certain extent. It can be seen that Deschamps has really put in a lot of effort in studying Porto's defense.

He once sorted out the Porto team's back line configuration very carefully, and created a dedicated offensive routine for the Monaco team.

Giuly's attack on the wing is indeed very sharp, and not only him, but even Roten began to look for breakthrough opportunities on the left side of Valente's defense.

The two sharp knives on the left and the right, during this period of time, used their own crazy sprints to aim at Porto's two flanks as if desperately.

Anyway, the Monaco people strive for every opportunity to attack, and they want to equalize the score in the shortest possible time. Their offense is very impactful.

Didier Deschamps has spotted Porto's side defense. He knows that Porto's offense often starts from the side.

Especially Valente and Ferreira, these two guys always have timely assists from the wing in the games they played in the early stage.

This has become Mourinho's usual tactic when tearing up the opponent's defense. The combination of side and center can always allow Porto to take advantage of positional battles.

Not only are Lin Yi and Deco able to find openings to pass the ball in the middle, but Porto's flanks can always create quite threatening opportunities.

This allows Porto's offense to have a strong sense of hierarchy and continuity, just like a raging tide, always able to set off waves of charges.

That kind of continuous impact often has a good effect in the game, especially when the opponent is defending, it is difficult to stare at him.

With two full-backs and two full-backs, changing positions so frequently will always be a headache, not to mention that their breakthrough crosses are very accurate.

Even Manchester United's defense can't completely trap these Portuguese. You can imagine how dangerous such a continuous sprint is.

That being the case, Deschamps came to do the opposite. He deliberately arranged a 4-3-2-1 formation, which is to prepare for this style of play.

Isn't your Portuguese wing attack fierce?Well, I will use Monaco's two sharpest wingers to attack your two full-backs.

This style of play of the Monaco team is to completely cut off the two sides of the Porto team, especially the connection between the full-back and the full-back.

Ambushing his two wingers behind Maniche and Bosingwa is what they want, and Deschamps is going to resort to this winger tactic.

You go on the side, and I also play on the side. Everyone concentrates their offensive firepower on these two sides. Let's see who can penetrate whose defense!
While Morientes is Monaco's top scorer, Deschamps has vowed to focus his attack on the two flank corridors this time around.

Not only is it necessary to suppress the Porto team's wing attack, but Deschamps also needs to open a gap from here to help Morientes grab points.

In the case of the score behind, the Monaco people will use their most powerful wings to tear apart Porto's defense. This kind of breakthrough has indeed brought a lot of trouble to Porto's defense, especially Carvalho and The two of Costa must entangle Morientes tightly.

After all, Jiuli and Rothen made such crazy breakthroughs on the wing, and their ultimate goal is to provide ammunition delivery to the Champions League shooter king in the middle.

And Morientes' impact and header skills are indeed not for nothing. Carvalho must now work hard to stare at the opponent.

Even so, Morientes' header just now scared Carvalho into a cold sweat. The top of the ball was simply too dangerous.

Carvalho didn't want Baia's roar to sound again. He and Costa immediately turned into dog skin plasters, sticking tightly to their opponents.

In the first 15 minutes of the first half, the battles between the two teams were all concentrated on the two wings, and the center that hoarded heavy troops became a display instead.

At least the Monaco people have no plans to break through from the front, especially Giuly, the little French man seems to be aiming at Ferreira's side.

The best right back in Europe seems to have no good way to stop the opponent in front of Giuly's unreasonable sprint breakthrough.

This is also a major weakness of Ferreira. His turning speed is not particularly slow, but it is indeed such pure speed players that he is most afraid of encountering.

What's more, Jiuli's feet work is not rough. His flexible ankles can always make confusing fake moves while dribbling the ball at high speed.

A slight shake of Giuly will make Ferreira lose his defensive focus, which makes all Porto supporters a little worried.

Even in the face of Ryan Giggs, Porto's wing has never been so embarrassing, but once, it may be that the final made Ferreira too nervous.

Sometimes it's like this, the more you don't want to make mistakes, the more you will make some inexplicable mistakes, just like Ferreira is now facing Giuly.

The main thing is that Giuly's ability to cut inside is very strong. Ferreira must always beware of Giuly's sudden cut to the middle, which makes it really difficult for him to defend.

And Porto's two central defenders don't have much energy to fill in for him at this time, which makes Ferreira have to be careful every time he defends.

However, Mourinho would not let his back line passively bear the impact of the opponent, and he quickly made tactical adjustments.

When Mourinho saw that Ferreira was starting to be dragged down by the defensive pressure, he immediately signaled Bosingwa to retreat immediately to assist the defense.

He would rather sacrifice his attack from the right than to be attacked so wantonly by Giuly. He must kill Monaco's attack from the side.

On the other side, he signaled that Maniche should also assist Valente more to consolidate the flanks, so as to completely kill Deschamps' tactical arrangement in the cradle.

Such tactical adjustments quickly paid off. With two lines of defense, compact defensive density, and reasonable positional protection between each other, Jiuli's threat has become much smaller. After all, he cannot face two people every time. , can smoothly go through the two lines of defense with speed.

Moreover, the Porto team also arranged their three lines very tightly during this time, trying not to give the opponent a large space to sprint.

Anyway, now that Porto is leading, Mourinho is not afraid to turn the game into a strangling battle. The more stalemate the scene is, the more anxious the French will be.

Mourinho is now trying to drag his opponent into such a cycle. As long as he has no fatal omissions, he is not afraid of any war of attrition.

After 10 minutes of frenzy, the two teams began to fall into a stalemate again. Although Mourinho had already eliminated the opponent's sideways intrusion, he did not let the two sides become his own defensive hidden dangers. Bosingwa and Maniche's retreat has also played a role in relieving the defensive pressure.

But passive defense is always a big taboo for military strategists. He must ask the players to move the defensive front forward and cannot retreat to such a beaten position.

It is impossible for Porto to allow the opponent to attack his wing so wantonly, and Mourinho will not let a goal become his burden.

There have been too many cases in history of being killed by opponents because of conservative tactics after leading. Mourinho does not want Porto to become a negative example of a classic case. The rhythm of the game was brought back into his own control.

"Press up!" Mourinho stood on the sidelines facing his offensive players, waved his hand vigorously, and signaled his players to start pressing forward.

After the group of lunatics saw Mourinho's instructions, including guys like Deco and McCarthy, they all began to press wildly in the midfield.

This sudden burst of very powerful pressing force did make the French uncomfortable for a while, especially the Monaco midfielder.

Don't be afraid of fouls, don't be afraid of the referee's whistle, do everything you can to strangle your opponents. This was originally the task that Deschamps assigned to them before the game started.

But now the Porto people have implemented this tactical arrangement very effectively, and the Monaco team is obviously a bit caught off guard by this change in Porto.

Players like Cisse, Bernardi, and Chikos obviously panicked when they suddenly faced the siege of madmen like Deco and Lin Yi.

They have a certain ability to control the ball, but these Porto people's feet are indeed too hard, and they are not given the opportunity to stop and control the ball at all.

The group of Porto people not only rushed fiercely when attacking, but they also looked very fierce and fierce when they counterattacked on the spot after losing the ball.

Anyway, it is impossible for Monaco's backcourt to play the ball smoothly at this time. In many cases, they have to passively clear the siege.

Otherwise, the ball at their feet is in danger of being cut off by the opponent. The Porto people are simply familiar with this kind of counterattack after losing the ball.

However, Monaco's blind clearance from the backcourt completely disrupted their offensive rhythm this time, and the midfielder was completely abandoned.

Passing the ball in the backcourt directly finds the forward, not to mention whether it is accurate enough, the exhaustion of the forward's physical strength by this kind of passing alone is a problem.

The effect can be imagined, how many headers can Morientes win with this high point alone?Do you still expect Jiuli to compete for this kind of ball?
This pass from the back became inaccurate, and the first victims were Monaco's attacking players, who simply couldn't get the ball.

Especially the winger where they played just now, this time it was misfired. Without the pass from the backcourt, they had to grab the opportunity by themselves.

For players like Jiuli and Luo Teng, it's no problem if you give them space to sprint like crazy, but if you want them to be engineers in the midfield, it's really difficult!
It's not that the French didn't want to provide support to the frontcourt, but guys like Cisse who planned to rush from the side were all knocked to the ground by Lin Yi.

Lin Yi's kick almost overturned Cisse to the ground with a dribble. With such a ferocity of pressing, do you still expect him to dribble the ball?
When that fellow Cisse got up from the turf, he also saw Lin Yi's unfriendly expression, even a little fierce.

Nelson was relentless towards such a foul. He took out a yellow card and issued a warning to Lin Yi, but when the kid turned his head and walked away, he didn't show any expression of regret. This is what Mourinho needs them to do , powerful!Use a powerful way to snipe the opponent!

Mourinho doesn't care if he commits a foul or not. Anyway, as long as he is not sent off, how he likes to play is their own business, and he doesn't care what others say.

Even with the Monaco fans swearing loudly in the stands behind him, Mourinho could have stayed put.

"The thickness of this face is almost as thick as the city wall." When Brito saw this scene, he admired his old partner even more.

As far as this mental quality is concerned, it is absolutely strong, but Brito also held back a word, "There are really not many people who are so skinny and shameless."

However, compared with Mourinho's calmness, those players on the field are the fiercest group of bandits. They are completing Mourinho's tactical arrangements in their own way. Blocking has completely disrupted the opponent's offensive rhythm in the shortest possible time.

The Monaco, who was still fierce just now, was dragged back to the midfield competition by Porto's strangling tactics, and the madness of the attack began to fade.

In the first 15 minutes, Monaco won a total of five shot opportunities in the fierce counterattack, two of which almost broke through Baia's ten fingers, but from 15 minutes to 25 minutes, their forward line Even only got one chance to attack the goal.

It was Roten who forcibly squeezed a breakthrough line with his body from the side where Valente was stationed, and then used his own speed to make a bottom pass.

This time the bottom pass was a bit reluctant and the accuracy was not high, but Morientes still hit the ball at the back post.

But this time the Spaniard's header didn't cause too much trouble for Baia. Baia easily grabbed the header with both hands.

This is also the only time in the nearly 10 minutes of the game that Monaco has caused trouble for Porto, but such a header is really not a threat.

On the other hand, those Porto people got a few chances to counterattack under their strong pressure, especially McCarthy's two headers in front of the goal.

Without Alenichev's wing breakthrough, Bosingwa was forced to retreat to help defend, but Porto's wing attack did not die down.

The biggest feature of the Porto team this season is the guys in the frontcourt. They don’t have a special offensive routine at all. They are always moving, looking for deadly gaps while moving. You never know where he will be. The position is suddenly given to you for a while.

Lin Yi used this method to cause headaches for everyone. It can be said that his attack points can be spread all over the range of 35 meters from the goal.

This time Lin Yi suddenly pulled to the side, which made Deschamps feel unprepared. That kid's choice is always so sharp and deadly.

Originally, Porto had already passed and cut frequently enough in the middle, and their side attack was withdrawn, which made Evra also move to the middle.

But at this juncture, Lin Yi suddenly slashed to the side, and twice in a row, which gave Monaco a shocking threat.

It was this boy's two breakthroughs on the side that allowed Porto to play two beautiful cooperations on the side, and also allowed McCarthy to find a chance to head the ball in the middle of the penalty area. If it wasn't for the quick reaction of Monaco's goalkeeper, maybe This header will turn into a deadly goal.

Such an assault made Evra have to refocus his attention on the wing defense, but when he withdrew from the center, the black-haired kid cruised to the center again, and launched a very deadly attack The attack once again became everyone's focus.

That was the moment when Evra returned to the wing. Because of Lin Yi's continuous suppression on the wing, Monaco's defense once again experienced a short-term chaos.

What Lin Yi wanted to seize was this opportunity. After receiving a direct pass from Costinia, he poked his toe and wiped it away in an instant before Zikos came over.

This time, there was no Evra to cover Chikos behind him, and after Lin Yi wiped it, he did not continue to break through, but chose to pass the ball. He knocked the football with the inside of his foot very coherently. McCarthy's position, and then straight into the penalty area.

McCarthy received the pass on the right side of the penalty area, without any pause, hit back directly, and played a very standard two-for-one cooperation with Lin Yi.

The two-foot continuous pass completely threw off Rodriguez's block. This is not the worst thing. The really bad thing is that Lin Yi can shoot.

McCarthy's pass gave Lin Yi enough space to squeeze Givee, unloaded the ball with his right foot very calmly, and then shot directly to the ground.

All this happened so fast, Givee had no time to think about how to deal with it, he could only stretch out his foot subconsciously, trying to block the football.

But it was the kick that this tragic guy protruded from the stab, which happened to touch the edge of the football, causing a strange change in the shooting angle.

Flavio Roma was already ready to make a save, but it was Give's light touch that made him an idiot again.

From his original position, the football got into the net once again, leaving the Monaco players with only a shaking net and a football dancing in the net, plus Give The tragic guy lowered his head and beat the turf hard with both hands.

2:0, the changing numbers on the big screen and the cheers resounding around have already told the French that all this is not a dream.

This is the final of the Champions League, and their Monaco has been scored twice by the black-haired kid within half an hour.

It seems that all the French, at this moment, have seen a tragedy being played out at the Schalke Stadium. . .
