i don't want to be king

Chapter 669 The overall situation has been decided
Li Liang began to focus on oppressing Dortmund's other midfielders, instead of physical confrontation or direct interception, he was using Schmelzer's marking of himself to destroy Dortmund's midfield organization.

Li Liang didn't realize that he was still in the "focus" state where the system was suspended, and his brain was thinking rapidly.

After more than halftime, he has a clear understanding of the operation of the Dortmund midfield composed of Weigel, Guerrero, Piszczek and others, and now he is using flexible running positions to bring Schmelzer together "Occupy" Dortmund's midfielders' space and cut their passing lanes.

Of course, Schmelzer was unaware of all this, although he had already found that his marking of Li Liang had begun to affect the positioning of his teammates.

Grimandi asked: "Dortmund is now almost 253 positions, they have completely won the midfield, what should Lee do?
If the offense misfires, Monaco will only become more and more passive! "

Wenger's eyes were piercing, and he explained to the two disciples who hadn't figured out the way: "Gills, Remy, and Lee are trying to destroy Dortmund's midfield organization!"

The two former midfield stars Guardiola and Arteta, also from La Masia, all saw Li Liang's true intentions. Guardiola praised: "Li is indeed the soul of Monaco's midfielder. It seems that he has Found a solution to the problem!"

Arteta also said: "It's just talent, right?!
Looking back now, the game against us was also the same. Li was able to make the most correct tactical choice on the court by himself. He is equivalent to the coach on the court! "

Watching Li Liang's running more and more, Jardim and his assistants were both nervous and excited, and Caldeira sighed: "To be honest, I can't think of such a tactic!

Li's choices are always so direct and effective! "

Gradually, Li Liang's running slowed down Dortmund's already rising midfield speed again.

Tuchel already understood that it was precisely because Schmelzer followed Li Liang's running that affected the connection between the players that he was worried about gains and losses again.

He understands that the essential reason for Dortmund's improvement in the second half is precisely because of Schmelzer's restrictions on Li Liang's success.

If they adjust and change their defense against Li Liang again, the good situation may be completely ruined!Tuchel yelled on the sidelines, signaling the players to reduce dribbling and speed up the ball, so as to minimize the impact of Li Liang's running on the midfielder.

In order to pursue forward speed, the mistakes of Dortmund players began to increase.

In the 59th minute, Weigl made a pass error and was intercepted by Bakayoko. The latter quickly split to the left, Mbappe made the ball, Mendy inserted at high speed on the left and sent a diagonal 45-degree cross, and Falcao got rid of it. Papa's defense shook his head to attack the goal, and the ball drew a strange arc and hung to the back corner of the goal. Fortunately, Burki reacted in time and quickly stepped back to lift the ball out of the crossbar.

Amidst the loud sighs of the audience, Godino was happy to see that Li Liang called out Mendy and Falcao, raised his hands and clapped vigorously, encouraging his teammates like a real captain.

He Wei and Xue Yang, who had been a little nervous after Dortmund's goal, cheered up again, and He Wei said: "It's a pity!
In the period after the opening of the second half, Monaco was completely suppressed by the opponent, and now they have regained the feeling of attacking, which is a very good signal. "

In the 61st minute, Schmelzer stopped the ball when he received a short pass from Kagawa. Li Liang reacted quickly and fell to the ground and shoveled the ball to Mbappe.

After Mbappe and Mendy kicked the wall, they threw off Piszczek on the left and sent a cross. Falcao once again grabbed the front point and dived to the top. Burki almost gave up resistance, but unfortunately the ball went slightly to the left. column.

The home fans became active again, and the home team's bench became more and more excited. Unknowingly, Monaco has regained the initiative on the field!

Tuchel made the third and final personnel adjustment. He replaced the physically declining Guerrero with the American teenager Pulisic in an attempt to continue to strengthen the midfield attack.

Schmelzer finally reacted. He realized that Li Liang was using his pursuit to hinder the movement and cooperation of his teammates. He ran to the sideline to communicate with Tuchel during the game break. Good way of defense, when Li Liang is close to the 30-meter area, then man-to-man defense!
Li Liang was keenly aware of Schmelzer's defensive changes. He was not in a hurry to press up, but connected back and forth near the center line. Monaco's midfielder resumed efficient operation.

Guardiola shook his head: "We must not relax our defense against 'dangerous elements' like Li!

Mikel, do you remember Monaco's third goal at the Etihad?

Li can send precise long passes like Kevin (De Bruyne). He can create scoring opportunities for Falcao and Mbappe immediately! "

In the eyes of Li Liang at this moment, Dortmund, who is eager to score the second goal, has huge gaps everywhere in the 253 positions!

In the 66th minute, Dortmund failed to launch an attack, the ball fell to Bakayoko's feet, and he directly passed it back to Subasic to control the rhythm.

Dortmund pressed across the board, and Li Liang quickly retreated to the backcourt to ask for the ball. He quickly turned around after receiving a pass from Subasic, and immediately passed the ball to Bakayoko before Dembele rushed up.

Bakayoko was surrounded by several people, and when he heard Li Liang's cry, he immediately passed the ball back.

This back pass was a bit strong, and Dembele pushed forward again. Li Liang directly buckled the ball to his left side and dodged the opponent.

Kagawa also rushed over, and he immediately saw that Monaco's No. 17 did not adjust and directly played a long pass with his left foot!

Xiang Chuan raised his head and turned around and immediately shouted in shock: "Be careful!"

Wenger, Magic Bird, and Guardiola in the stands all stared wide-eyed at the same time. They saw the ball flying across the midfield as if it had eyes, and fell towards Falcao who was rushing to the front!
The moment Li Liang kicked his foot, the knowing tiger suddenly activated the anti-offside from behind Papa and succeeded. As long as he receives this long pass, he can form a single goal in the frontcourt!

Falcao rushed to the landing point desperately, followed by Papa, Gentle and Pischek behind him.

Falcao finally caught up with the ball in front of the left side of the penalty area. He jumped up and accurately unloaded the ball with the instep of his right foot. Gentle rushed between the ball and the goal while he was slowing down. Bull with a quick reaction Ki also gave up the goal and rushed out.

The tiger quickly completed the adjustment and directly dunked Gentle, facing Burki who rushed forward, rubbed the outside of his instep, and the ball flew across the empty goal across the crossbar!
Everyone was sighing, even Li Liang put his head in his hands in regret.

Mourinho said: "It is very difficult for Dortmund to find opportunities again.

The flaws in the lineup made it impossible for them to completely contain Monaco's offense, and it was very difficult to maintain this score until the end! "

Wenger and Guardiola also have the same opinion. Dortmund has exhausted all methods, and it is difficult to bring continuous ideal results with three substitutions. They have reached their limit in this game.

He Wei and Xue Yang, while sighing, praised Li Liang's wonderful long pass.

Tiger fell to the ground directly after finishing the shot. The continuous high-intensity running in the frontcourt exhausted his physical energy, and it was difficult for him to persist in the case of cramps.

In the 71st minute, Tiger was replaced by Germain amidst the huge applause of the audience.

Monaco played better and better. In the 69th minute, Mbappe received a pass from Li Liangmiao, broke into the penalty area and hit Burki at the far corner and was saved from the bottom line.

Under Monaco's offensive wave after wave, Dortmund fell into a huge passive position.

Jardim and his assistants always believed that the overall situation of the game was settled, so they replaced Li Liang with veteran Dilar in the 83rd minute.

This is a rewarding substitution, so that Li Liang, the hero of this game, can accept the cheers of the fans.

Seeing Li Liang tie the captain's armband on Subasic's arm, and then run off the field amid thunderous cheers from the audience, Xiao Yu was extremely proud and excited.

On the sidelines, Li Liang applauded to the stands on all sides, and the cheers of "Li! Li! Li!" from the audience lasted for a long time.

At the last moment of the game, Piszczek made a mistake in passing the ball. After Mendy broke the ball, he counterattacked from the left and sent a cross. Germain, who came off the bench, sent the ball into Dortmund's goal with his first shot, 3:1!

While rewriting the total score to 6:3, Monaco has completely secured the top four seats in the Champions League!
In the end, the whole game ended, Monaco defeated the visiting Dortmund 3:1 at home, and advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League with their heads held high!
