Chapter 674 Surprised Buffon

Like Monaco, Lyon, who had a hard time knocking out the Turkish Super League powerhouse Besiktas in the quarter-finals of the Europa League, has just experienced two weeks in a row and three games a week.

Lyon's coach Genesio knows that his team's physical fitness has also been impressed by the continuous campaign, so his tactical arrangement is very different from the away victory over Monaco.

The two teams are already too familiar with each other, and Genesio and Jardim also have a considerable understanding of each other's tactics.

Both of them knew that their players needed a longer "warm-up" time than before to really enter the state, and they both concluded that it was impossible for the opponent to play a high-intensity offensive and defensive rhythm at the beginning of the game, so neither side was eager to press at the beginning of the game. , The game scene seemed calm.

In the 3rd minute, Li Liang got the ball in the backcourt. When he was protecting the ball, he was tackled fiercely by Depay, and Li Liang fell to the ground in response!

Fortunately, Li Liang was fine, and the referee gave Depay a verbal warning.

Raj, Subasic, Bakayoko and Fabinho rushed over and shouted at Depay. The players from both sides quickly got entangled, and the audience booed loudly.

After the situation calmed down, Depay ran to Li Liang and held out his hand, and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, big star!

But as long as you have the ball we will still defend like this! "

In the 6th minute, when Li Liang was fighting for the top with Tolisso, Depay, who jumped behind him at the same time, pushed his knee to the lower back, and he lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Depay spread out his hands in an innocent gesture, and the fiery Bakayoko rushed over to attack the Dutchman with his chest. Depay let out an exaggerated scream, covered his face with his hands and fell to the ground and rolled. confusion.

The audience all stood up and roared, Buffon asked Pjanic with his eyes wide open: "Is Lyon's game so hot?"

Pjanic shrugged: "It wasn't like that when I was there!
Perhaps it was because Li threatened Leon too much, so he received more violations. "

This time the referee first showed Depay a yellow card, and then took Bakayoko aside.

Li Liang endured the pain and rushed to the referee. As the captain, he begged the referee: "Timoey (Bakayoko) doesn't want to provoke trouble, he just wants to protect his teammates!"

Lyon captain Lopez also rushed over: "He knocked down Depay! He must be punished!"

All the Monaco players, Jardim, and the fans of the visiting team from afar were extremely nervous and held their breath—the referee pointed to his eyes and said to the captains of the two teams: "I saw everything!"

As he spoke, he quickly showed a yellow card to Bakayoko!
The people on the Monaco side were relieved, but fortunately it was not a red card!Otherwise, the team will have to fight with 10 people like a home game against Lyon!
The two sides returned to the game, Depay stopped pestering Li Liang after receiving a yellow card, and soon Li Liang was violated for the third time-this time it was Lyon's right winger Kornai.

Lyon's players have restrained their movements, but the effect is better than that of Depay, which greatly delayed Li Liang's offensive organization without receiving a yellow card.

After being knocked down by Kornai again, Li Liang couldn't help but think of Yardim's words: "...now you have been regarded as the number one threat by all our opponents, you will be more and more closely guarded, and even Encounter more flagrant fouls!

We hope you can always stay healthy, the season has come to the most critical time, we need your help!
......"

Even Tang Meng saw Lyon's defensive tactics: "Less than 10 minutes into the game, Li Liang has been fouled three times by his opponent, it seems that the Lyon team has made arrangements for Li Liang today.

When Li Liang got the ball in the backcourt, the opponent's midfielders took turns to harass him. When he approached the center line, Tolisso immediately began to closely mark him. "

Lu Yue also said: "It seems that Lyon's coach has fully learned the lesson of the previous game, and no longer puts the burden of defending Li Liang on the shoulders of Tolisso, but after his teammates harass him in the frontcourt, Then Tolisso will go out.

This is bound to cause great consumption to Li Liang. "

In the 7th minute of the game, Li Liang's free kick from the backcourt was well placed. Mbappe quickly started on the left side of the frontcourt. Seeing that he was about to throw off the defense, the Brazilian right back Rafael, who had played for Manchester United, scrambled. During the foul, Monaco got a free kick from the left side of the penalty area, which was nearly 30 meters away from the goal.

Seeing Li Liang standing in front of the ball, Buffon became excited. He said to Pjanic: "Li will definitely shoot!"

Pjanic has already become the team's set-piece kicker when he was in Lyon. He scored many wonderful direct free kicks. He said to Buffon: "It may not be easy to score from this angle!"

Tang Meng was also looking forward to it: "This ball is a bit far away... Let's see if Li Liang can hit it!"

The game against Dortmund still affected Li Liang's state to some extent. Although he felt that there was no problem with his physical fitness, the muscles of his legs were still somewhat tight.

This was a rare opportunity for a free kick in the front court. Although the distance was a little far away, the Lyon goalkeeper Lopez, who had been scored by Li Liang, was extremely nervous. He kept yelling to make his teammates pay attention to the position of the wall.

Lacazette stood beside Li Liang, and the referee whistled for him to back off.This is a tactic that Genesio specially arranged for Li Liang. Once Li Liang starts to run up and needs a free throw, Lacazette will immediately rush into the range of 9.15 meters and try his best to interfere.

Seeing that Li Liang was repeatedly stretching before the free throw, Gaudino couldn't help feeling worried. He understood that this was the player's subconscious reaction, and if Li Liang was in good condition, he would never hesitate.

Li Liang took a deep breath, lowered his weight and began to run. Lacazette had already started to move quietly. Before Li Liang could finish the run-up, he accelerated and rushed over!
In Li Liang's last step, Lacazette was still far away, but the referee's whistle had already sounded-at the same time, Li Liang kicked the ball with his left foot!

The ball drew a beautiful arc, crossed the high-jumping wall just right, and fell rapidly after reaching the highest point, hitting the junction of the post and beam on the left side of Lopez, "Dang" Pop out of bounds with a bang!
The audience exclaimed, and the Monaco fans were annoyed, and soon they saw that the referee showed Lacazette a yellow card, and then signaled for a new penalty for the ball!
Buffon was a little surprised. He said to Pjanic: "Little Prince (Pjanic was nicknamed by Totti when he was in Rome), see?"

Pjanic also had a serious expression: "Boss, this guy's free kick is absolutely extraordinary!"

Buffon shook his head: "No, I've seen his free kicks many times in the video, that's not what I mean!"

Genesio couldn't hold back anymore, he rushed to the command area and yelled at the field, and soon, under his instructions, Depay rushed to the goalpost behind the wall hit by Li Liang just now .

Tang, who was still regretful, laughed fiercely: "For a free kick at this distance, Lyon not only set up a five-man wall, but now they also pulled Depere to the goal to help defend.

It can be seen how afraid they are of Li Liang's free kick! "
