Chapter 556 Who Will Be the Loser?
The referee whistled, but Falcao obviously hesitated.

As the captain of Monaco and the team's number one penalty shooter, he has maintained a [-]% penalty kick rate in the new season. Even in his entire career so far, this super center nicknamed "Tiger" has kept all penalty kicks pretty good. hit record.

Originally planned to push Caballero's lower right corner, but suddenly felt a little tightness in the muscles on the back of his right leg!

He understood that this must be caused by excessive psychological tension, and immediately began to adjust his breathing, and the fans in the stands booed loudly.

Falcao started the run-up, he changed his decision temporarily and pushed the bottom left corner!
Caballero has keenly captured Falcao's hesitation, and the old Argentine goalkeeper who made a lot of preparations before the game decided to take a gamble!
From the statistics and analysis I have seen, I know that almost all of Falcao's penalty kicks are pushed from both sides, the difference is only ground balls or half-high balls.

With a roar, Caballero made a gesture and kicked the ground with all his strength, wanting to save from his right side, but he firmly controlled the center of gravity and did not throw his body out!
The tiger was obviously affected. The direction of the body and the pointing of the toe of the supporting left foot revealed his intentions at a glance. He also subconsciously reduced the force to ensure accuracy.

Under the heavy pressure, Caballero caught the tiger's weak ground ball shot from the back. The Argentine goalkeeper judged the accuracy and stretched his movements, and jumped sideways to firmly press the ball under him!

Caballero, Otamendi and Sagna rushed to the penalty spot after kicking the ball with big feet. The three of them surrounded Falcao and roared exaggeratedly, trying their best to ridicule until they were beaten by Li Liang and Bakayo. Cor pushed back, still babbling.

Stones on the side sneered loudly at the dumb Falcao: "You are such a natural born Luthor (loser: loser)!"

Li Liang stepped forward angrily and directly attacked him with his chest, raised his head against Stones, who was half a head taller than him, and gnashed his teeth and cursed angrily: "Come on idiot, let's see who is Luthor, and who is the last!" Torn apart!"

Not to be outdone, Stones squeezed like Li Liang: "Okay, play well, this is your penultimate UEFA Champions League game this season, you Luther..."

De Bruyne hurried forward and hugged Li Liang away. The referee whistled continuously to separate the chaotic players from both sides, then called Li Liang aside and gave a stern verbal warning, and told Li Liang that if he committed another crime, he would be punished severely!
There was silence on the bench in Monaco. Everyone, including Jardim, was stunned after experiencing the great joy and sorrow of falling from heaven to hell in an instant.

At this moment, even Yardim's heart went cold.

Guardiola stood up abruptly and said to Torrent: "Get Zabaleta ready to play!"

After Torrent left, he called Arteta: "What do you think Mikel?"

Arteta looked solemn: "Pep...

We may have made a major mistake in our judgment..."

In the huge singing of Caballero and ridicule, Falcao's wife Talon was crying bitterly in the stands, and Xiao Yu kept comforting her: "There is still time, don't worry, we still have time." .”

In fact, Xiao Yu was more nervous than anyone else, she couldn't help but think, if Li Liang took the penalty, she might have scored...

Both Dalk and Lampard said that it was too wrong to miss this opportunity, but considering that it was Falcao, it was understandable.

Dalk said: "This top center may have been 'cursed'. The previous header was impeccable. Unfortunately, after missing this penalty, his own efforts and the efforts of Monaco were in vain. It is a pity."

Lampard said: "I can understand Falcao's feelings, he didn't go far in the two seasons in the Premier League, maybe he wanted to prove himself too much.

Penalty kicks are never a test of skill, but only the psychological quality of the kicker. At this moment, Falcao couldn't keep his inner peace, so he hit such a penalty kick. "

He Wei was extremely depressed: "It's a pity that this penalty kick is too undeserved. It is very likely that the two rounds of the knockout round will be lost on this precious away goal!"

Netizens became pessimistic again, and those who supported Manchester City regained the upper hand.

Falcao ran back slowly with his head down, his mind went blank, Li Liang caught up and shouted: "Boss!

We still have a chance, it's all up to you!

Boss, you must enter another one! "

Li Liang's voice pierced Falcao's heart, and he saw that Li Liang was not pretending to comfort himself. It was as if "I want to win" was written on this guy's face!
Li Liang ran to the frustrated Mbappe again: "Kylian, you did a great job with this ball, please continue!

If we want to win, we cannot do without your strength! "

After finishing speaking, he patted Mbappe on the back heavily: "Also, in the next game, you and Bernardo can try to switch positions more!"

Li Liang was not force-feeding the two attackers with chicken soup.

Now that the game has progressed, he finally found a clue to crack Manchester City.

Fernandinho's defense on the left is almost flawless in positional battles. However, when the ball is running fast, the bird's position selection and movement route are very problematic, and the protection of the gap behind him is obviously not enough.

In addition, the athletic ability of the right back Sagna is far behind that of Mbappe. Sagna's return speed is not fast enough when Manchester City's overall formation is pressed.

This caused Stones and Otamendi to be a little awkward when choosing positions, and had to always pay attention to the protection and the gap between the two wings. If it weren't for Toure and De Bruyne's excellent protection of the back line , Monaco should have had more chances in the two ribs of the penalty area!
Falcao's form today is actually quite good. Li Liang believes that the missed penalty is just an episode. Tiger's quick movement in the frontcourt and superior sense of smell in front of him made Manchester City's defense never dare to take it lightly.

And no one in Manchester City's entire midfield can keep up with Mbappe's speed. If he is fully utilized, Manchester City's defense will definitely be seriously shaken!

Before he knew it, Li Liang's attention had been fully focused on the game, and Stones tried to irritate Falcao and
Guardiola also thought so. When he judged before the game that Li Liang would definitely start, he risked such a lineup to bet that Monaco would use the positional warfare organized by Li Liang in the middle as the main offensive method.

As soon as he came to Manchester City, Guardiola found that the problems of the team were more serious than he imagined. After the summer and winter windows in the transfer market, he has not solved the problem of the two full-backs until now. question.

Most of the meritorious players who won the two Premier League championships are still in the team, but in the full-back position that emphasizes athletic ability, these veterans have become more and more unable to do what they want.

There was a burst of cheers from the stands, Sane moved forward quickly, De Bruyne sent a direct pass in the midfield, Glick did not dare to neglect and knocked the ball out of the baseline first, and Manchester City took a corner kick.

De Bruyne took a corner kick on the left, and he quietly observed the movement of his teammates in the penalty area.

Seeing De Bruyne raise his right hand to send a signal, Otamendi, who was standing on the penalty spot, began to run laterally to block Bakayoko. Toure took the opportunity to get rid of the entanglement and rushed forward. De Bruyne started to synchronize The run-up took a corner kick that flew forward at a very fast speed.

Li Liang, who was watching the bird defense, heard the yelling from his teammates. Before he could turn his head, the tall Toure jumped up first to overwhelm Li Liang, shook his head vigorously and ferried the ball to the middle!
This sudden change of line made the big men in Monaco in the penalty area too late to react. Stones, who was ambushing at the back point, flew towards the ball's landing point according to the routine he had repeatedly practiced in the training session, and directly stretched his legs and shoveled!

Subasic didn't have time to react, and watched helplessly as the ball was shoveled into the lower right corner by Stones!

2:1, Manchester City finally seized the opportunity to overtake the score in the 57th minute!
