ball at foot

After scoring two away goals, Monaco decisively chose to retreat.Everyone was almost exhausted, and they were also suffering from the cold, so they didn't have much energy to attack again.

Fortunately, there were two away goals, and some kicked back at home. Therefore, Monaco took advantage of the situation and chose to let it go.

And this 2-2 score has been maintained until the end, without any change.

"We are very satisfied with the result of the game." When facing the media, Deschamps will naturally not show any dissatisfaction, "It is much better than I imagined, and this result is of course acceptable."

But back in the team, Deschamps was not so happy. [

"Chris just recovered, and Sebastian was injured again. Could it be that Monaco is really cursed? Is it true that such a illogical thing that the defending champion cannot win the championship will definitely happen?"

Fortunately, Squillage's injury was not serious, and the team doctor quickly made a judgment after the examination.

"Muscle strain."

That means a maximum of two weeks. If you are lucky, you may be able to catch up with the home game against Lokomotiv Moscow on March [-]th.If you miss it, it's just missing two league games against Toulouse and Guingamp.

Such news can still comfort Deschamps.

But the more illogical things are, the more often they will happen.On the weekend of this week, in the game against Toulouse on February 29, Monaco encountered another bad news.

In this game, Jiuli was injured.

The game itself is not much to watch.Although the date is a bit weird, the competition is not difficult.Although Monaco was a little out of shape because of the game against Lokomotiv Moscow, in the No. 30 minute of the game, Pursau, who became the main force from the rotation, scored a header.

This advantage was maintained until the second half.And the accident happened at 10 minutes.

After a collision with his opponent, Jiuli lay on the ground and didn't get up for a long time.

Such things are rare.Although Jiuli is small, he is very strong, and his temper is strong enough. It is extremely rare for him to lie on the ground and not get up.

I'm afraid it's a serious injury.

This idea flashed in the hearts of the Monaco players, and it also made them completely out of shape for the rest of the time.They didn't even care that they were equalized by a goal scored by Toulouse. As soon as the game was over, they all flooded into the locker room.

"Soft tissue contusion...the injury is serious. My suggestion is to rest for two months and then come back."

If this news is a sap in the head.In contrast, being tied by Toulouse is nothing immediately.

Giuly was injured for two months?How to play the game?

Although Zhao Yaning's improvement speed is very fast now, and although Morientes quickly became the team's new favorite after arriving in Monaco, the real boss of Monaco is Jiuli after all.

Captain, core, locker room leader, these identities are all the person in front of him.

"This is fucking ridiculous." Jiuli stood up regardless of objections, "how can a soft tissue contusion be that serious? It's okay to rest for a month, it's not a big deal. Two months? After two months It’s May, what’s the point of my comeback?”[

"Ludovic, you can't joke about injuries." Deschamps frowned and helped him to sit down. "You have to rest when you have to rest. You can't be vague about this."

"I'm fine." Jiuli frowned and gave the answer.

"You're not a doctor." Deschamps shook his head. "I can listen to whatever you say about other things, but you can't confront the team doctor about injuries. This is not a stadium, so what you say doesn't count."

"I said I'm fine." Jiuli said again, "It's just a small injury, what's the big deal, two months? Come back in two months, the Champions League is gone, the French Cup is gone, and the league results are uncertain. , what's the point of me coming back?"

"You have to trust your teammates. And, even if this year doesn't work, next year..."

"Head, don't fool me. You know it yourself. If I'm not in this team, our strength will definitely be severely damaged. Let me trust them. How can I trust them? Moreover, this year won't work, and you also know that there will be no next year. You think I don't know about the economic situation of the team?"

Deschamps was silent, and it took him a while to speak, "But, you can't joke about your body. You can get honors at any time, but once your body breaks down, it's about your career..."

"No matter how long my career is, the honor cannot be better than this season." Giuly interrupted Deschamps decisively, "Head, I am 27 years old. What does 27 years old mean to a winger? My peak Three years at most. I'm not Joey, I'm not young, I don't have that much time. I'm not you, I don't have a book of honor to rest on."

"When I was a kid, if it wasn't for the coincidence that the Toravoroj base was established and Lyon recruited people aggressively, I might not have been able to play football. You know, head, I stayed twice when I was in elementary school. I I'm small, stupid, have nothing, and I'm not attractive at all. I can get to today not because of anyone's favor, but because of me step by step."

"When I was an adult, if Coach Tigana hadn't brought me to Monaco, I might have been a substitute in Lyon. At that time, Mr. Lacombe watched me play and he told me that I could represent the national team ten times in my life. Do you know how hurtful it is to say this from a famous Ligue 165 star? A 31m kid who wants to play in an environment like France where there are many defensive midfielders and iron walls, you should understand that I ate it How much suffering, head, it is not easy for me today, head, I am not you, I did not have the honor of representing three teams to reach the Champions League final six times, and I did not have the captain of the national team, Mr. Baichang, the World Cup and the European Cup Adding glory. I am not a Grand Slam player, and it is even more impossible for me to choose to retire at the age of [-] with full of honors like you. There are not many glorious moments in my life. And this year is my highest peak."

"The possibility of the quarter-finals of the Champions League and the possibility of defending the title in the league are nothing to you at all. This is nothing more than what you do year after year. You call this life, right? But you know that What does it mean to me? That is a dream, that is the height I have dreamed of all my life, I will be the one who ended the decade of chaos in Ligue 90, and I will be the only one who led the team to the quarter-finals of the Champions League after the golden age of the [-]s passed People, I was able to win a European Cup ticket for myself, and when people look back on French football, they will mention: There is a man named Ludovic Giuly who has made some contributions to French football!"

"It's nothing to you, is it? But man, this is the pinnacle of my career. I can't live my pinnacle in a hospital bed!"

Jiuli's attitude made Deschamps not know how to speak.Jiuli has his ideas and pursuits, and these things are more important to him.

He is 27 years old, and there are only two shabby Ligue [-] champions and one French Cup champion on the honor book. Players, it's just too shabby.

His career in the national team has never been smooth. Before him, Pire Zidane Dora Somiku and others refused to retreat. In the middle, Govu Malouda Cisse and others gradually matured and caught up. Behind him, the 87th generation Nasri , Ben Alpha, Menez, and Benzema have also entered adulthood, and the French u17 under their leadership are also showing their sharpness.With so much pressure before and after, the European Cup in 2004 and the World Cup in 2006 were his only opportunities to participate in the national team competition.Moreover, at the age of 27, he was at his peak, and the club's game situation was very good. How could he just abandon his most likely brilliant season like this?

Not everyone is as full of honors as Didier Deschamps, and not everyone can start all over again after failing like Didier Deschamps and Blanco.For some people, defending the Ligue [-] title once is enough to remember for a lifetime.Jiuli himself knew that coming back early was a life-threatening effort, but he was going to do it.

But as a coach, how could Deschamps make him fight for his life!Let your players play with injuries, what kind of bastard would do that?

"Ludovic, you figured it out, it's a maximum of two months, that is to say, in the worst case, you can't come back until May. But your physique is not that bad, and it's not impossible to come back sooner." Luo Teng spoke from the side, "In the league, we are still leading, and there will be no tough games in the next game, so don't worry too much. In the Champions League, if you draw away, you can qualify for a draw at home. There is no big problem. Next We will talk about the next round of the game. As for the French Cup, we are only playing against a team like Châteauroux. What are we afraid of? If we are really unlucky, when we meet a strong team like Paris or Rennes, what will you do? It’s not too late to consider coming back early.”

Roten's persuasion made Jiuli look a little calmer, and Morientes also said aside, "If you don't rest now, it will affect your state at that time, and we are also a loser."

"And, you don't have to worry, we are still a strong team without you now. If you can't win against a strong team, can you win if you abuse food?"

Purshaw also spoke persuasively.

The persuasion of his teammates made Jiuli shaken.But at this moment, Zhao Yaning seemed to think of something. [

He remembered Gowu's 'Ball Master Double' card.

Sidney Govo seems to be favored by the head coach because of his diligence, hard work, temporary notice, and no complaints when he replaced an injured teammate.

France is now in its heyday. It is difficult for people who play in Ligue [-] to get tickets for national team games.For a long time, it has been rumored that Cisse and Giuly will compete for the last place in the European Cup. The former is a new striker in France, and the latter is the core figure in Monaco. For a long time, whoever goes to Portugal is a quarrel between the two of them.But the words on that card... Could it be that, in the end, both of them will be injured, and then Sidney Gowu will start his career as a ball master?

"Ludovic, you can't come back early, it may cause your injury to continue, and you won't be able to win the European Cup!"

This sentence made Jiuli raise his head, and he was very reluctant to mention this sentence now.

"Ludovic, you have to go to rest. Leave everything to me about the club game." Zhao Yaning looked at Jiuli and solemnly made a promise, "I promise, Monaco will never have any problems before you come back! "
