Chapter 185: .185 soldiers came to cover the water and earth

The sky is not beautiful, Monaco has more than 300 days of sunny days a year, but it rained lightly in the night in the fourth round of the Champions League group stage.

Under the drizzle, the Louis II stadium was enthusiastic. Situ Yunbing and Ferreira shook hands before the game. The encounter in the European war was a small probability event for many teams. Situ Yunbing and Ferreira were originally Strange people, but when they meet on the field, mutual respect is from the heart. Respecting the opponent is also the most basic attitude towards self-respect and the job.

After this clash, regardless of victory or defeat, Monaco and Porto have a high probability of meeting this in the short term. If they want to meet again in this season's knockout rounds, there will be weak hopes unless Chelsea loses to Atletico Madrid today.

The starting players of the two teams walked into the Louis II Stadium with a strong expression, and the fans in the stands immediately uttered deafening cheers.

"Good evening, everyone, and welcome to the fourth round of Group D of the UEFA Champions League group stage. Today, we will broadcast live commentary on the match between Monaco and Porto at the Louis II Stadium in Monaco. The two teams faced each other in the previous round. Porto was defeated at home by Monaco. Monaco is now 3 points ahead of Porto in the group standings. It can be said that if Monaco can beat Porto at home today and Chelsea does not lose to Atletico Madrid, Monaco will advance to the Champions League round two ahead of schedule. , Because Monaco will lead Porto by 6 points. Even if Monaco loses in the last two rounds and Porto wins, the two teams have the same points, but because Monaco has an advantage in the record of the two teams, Monaco will still force Porto to advance to the top 16. .

So this game belongs to Porto’s life and death battle. Not only can they not lose, but they must also win, because even if it is a draw, Monaco only needs to win in the last two rounds, or Porto can’t win both rounds, Monaco It only takes a draw to advance to the top 16.

The situation sounds a bit complicated, but it is actually very simple. Porto must score 3 points in the away game today!

But Monaco, which has set a 13-game winning streak in Ligue 1, may not give them such a chance.

Let's look at the starting lineups of the two teams.

Monaco started 433.

Goalkeeper: De Gea.

Defenders: Modesto, Benatia, Virtonghen, Moreau.

Midfielder: Perez, Nkulu, Matic.

Forwards: Falcao, Suarez, Gareth Bale.

Since the new season, Monaco's offensive trident performance has been high. First, Suarez and Falcao provoked a large number of offensives. In the past month or so, Gareth Bale has ushered in a big explosion. He made Monaco trident. The halberd became the top attacking combination in the top five leagues in European football.

Porto started 442 today.

Goalkeeper: Helton.

Defenders: Sapunaru, Alves, Rolando, Perea.

Midfielder: Beluski, Fernando, Meireles, Rodriguez.

Forwards: Hulk, Farias.

The starting lineup that Ferreira arranged today was a bit surprising. Italian midfielder Beluski was the right midfielder, Argentine forward Farias entered the starting lineup, and Romania international Sapunaru was used at the right back position.

In such a life-and-death battle, Porto's offensive formation is clear at a glance, and they are at least more active than at home.

Well, the kick-off ceremony before the game is over, let us wait and see to see who will win the game! "

The European war commanded Situ Yunbing's unprecedented concentration, because if he led the team to play Ligue 1 for a long time, the homogeneity of the team styles encountered was too obvious. The similarity of the team styles in the same league was very high, but the European war Not to mention that hard power has a strong foundation for the opponent, the coach's coaching style, team style, technical and tactical differences are obvious.

Such a confrontation would make Situ Yunbing look forward to, but also vigilant.

For fear of being beaten by the opponent and turning to myself, I still don't know why.

Even though Ferreira has nothing to do with his resume, it is always right to be cautious.

When the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game, Porto took the lead in teeing off.

The midfielder passed the organization and scored the ball from the side. Just after halftime, he didn't reach the offensive danger zone, but he saw Rodriguez and made a pass!

This made Situ Yunbing frowned. Will the effect be good if he passes it like this?

meeting!

Because Porto has a high center forward Hulk, who has strong confrontation and can stand his ground!

He won the confrontation with Vertonghen, took off from the front of the penalty zone and then headed the ball to the forward Farias.

Seeing that Rias had a chance to shoot into the penalty area before the football landed, Benatia turned around and ran for a step and then took off and raised his leg to barely clear the ball out of the baseline.

If he missed this kick, then the Argentine Farias would definitely be single-handed!

call!

Situ Yunbing let out a sigh of relief. Although it is still unsure of the inference in his heart, it is true that Porto's play style has changed significantly from the last game at the Dragon Stadium.

In the 4th minute of the game, Monaco launched a fast attack in the backcourt. Morro had just arrived near the center line on the left, but he saw Belluschi and Sapnaru in front of Gareth Bale forming a flanking attack. It looked like Porto Today's defensive focus on Gareth Bale is also clear.

Moro gave the ball to Matic in the middle, who quickly pushed forward, and after attracting Meireles' frontal defense, he shortly passed the ball to Suarez's feet, who was pressing behind Fernando. Next, he quickly completed the collision with Perez. After the ball was released, he turned and moved forward. The through ball sent by Perez was controlled by Suarez just in front of the penalty area. He changed the direction of the spike but was destroyed by Rolando with his foot. Get out.

Porto defended successfully, Meireles crossed the ball diagonally to the right in the backcourt, and Belluschi quickly advanced after half-court and then made a pass and dropped the ball into the Monaco penalty area.

This time it was not Hulk, but Farias.

It seems that their style of play is somewhat similar to Monaco's. They both hit the opponent's penalty area as quickly as possible in the counterattack. The difference is that Porto's offensive method is a bit similar to the British style of attack, just go to the opponent's penalty area. While delivering high-altitude **** in Monaco, Monaco is more flexible and delicate, and different methods will be adopted in different situations.

Due to the long flight time of the ball in the air, it gave the Monaco back line enough time to adjust. Farias's position was fine, but Benatia took the lead and easily headed the ball.

After 3 minutes, Porto tried again to pass from the left. This time Perea assisted after half-time to receive Rodriguez's pass and crossed 45 degrees from the side. Hulk crossed into the penalty area and finished his head. The ball hits the goal and De Gea holds the ball steadily.

At this time, Situ Yunbing can basically determine what Porto is thinking about today.

First of all, Porto learned the lessons of the previous game and paid more attention to the protection of the space behind the back line to avoid being hit behind by Monaco.

In addition, although they had many players in the midfield last game, the offense was ineffective, and the defensive interception efficiency was not high. Today Ferreira removed a midfielder in the midfield and turned to an additional forward.

The advantage of this is that it can share the pressure of Hulk and give Hulk more room to play.

In the end, it’s the offense. It’s a bit like Bordeaux’s offensive tactics against Monaco. The difference is that Bordeaux played more delicately on the offensive end. The players’ personal skills and active running team cooperation, interspersed in the Monaco defense. opportunity.

Porto is a bit rougher. Using Hulk as a bridgehead, Farias is more flexible and faster. In fact, the configuration of most teams in the Premier League in the past ten years is basically the same: two forwards, one high and one fast.

Compared with Bordeaux who wants to give full play to their physical advantages, it is only natural that Porto wants to take advantage of Hulk's advantage in competition.

In the 12th minute of the match, Porto made a clearance from the backcourt. When the football flew to the front court, Vertonghen and Hulk took off at the same time to grab the header, and the two heads collided!

After landing, Vertonghen fell to the ground and held his head, while Hulk also touched his head, which seemed to hurt.

Although the football was controlled by Nkuru, the referee stopped the game and signaled to let the Monaco team doctor come in to check the situation of Vertonghen. When a player is suspected of head injury, the game must be suspended.

When the team doctor entered the field, Situ Yunbing called Modesto in front of him. He simply passed the tactical instructions to Modesto, and then asked Modesto to communicate to his teammates on the field.

There is no problem with Vertonghen, but the collision just now made his head a little confused, and it really hurts!

After Modesto conveyed Situ Yunbing's tactical instructions to his teammates on the field, the game continued.

When Porto switched from defensive to offensive again and wanted to push the offensive from the wing, it became a little difficult!

Beluski on the right was robbed by Moreau just after halftime!

Moreau was obviously far away from the full-back defense zone, but this made Belluschi a little flustered. He subconsciously crossed the ball to the center, trying to give Meireles, but the football was cut off by Matic in the middle. .

Meireles could not have imagined that Porto's offensive was cut off by his opponent before halftime!

After Matic steals the ball and pushes forward, the Porto defense is shocked.

Just finished defending a wave of offense, and it hasn’t rested for a moment to encounter the opponent’s offense.

It would be somewhat nervous to change anyone.

Matic hit the ball to the 30-yard area in front of the goal, Fernando blocked it head-on, this time Gareth Bale made a quick cut inside and Matic passed the ball short to the front left.

Alves and Sapunaru tightened the inside defense and tried to defend Gareth Bale from the left side of the penalty area, but Gareth Bale knocked the ball across!

Suarez, who had just entered the right side of the penalty area, faced the cross from Gareth Bale, and he used his right foot to pick the ball to the left side of the penalty area!

At the moment Gareth Bale played the ball, Alves moved to the middle of the penalty area. As a result, Bell continued to advance after the ball. Suarez sent a pick pass that flew diagonally over Alves' head.

When he turned back to the front of the defense, Gareth Bale jumped high at the top corner of the small penalty area and shook his head to make the ball back!

Falcao drove Rolando to follow up with the back of the goal in the middle of the goal. Alves also returned to the left of the middle of the goal. Gareth Bale shook his head this time to make the ball back and the football fell. It is the penalty spot in the middle of the penalty area.

Neither Alves nor Rolando had a chance to defend themselves again. Suddenly stopping and turning in a short period of time was not the strength of their tall and mighty central defender.

What catches the eye is that Suarez volleyed without adjusting the ball from five meters away!

In order to suppress the football from flying, Suarez deliberately tilted his body and stretched his legs to a greater extent, with a significant downward pressure trend.

When the football he shot went straight to the left of the small penalty area, Suarez himself had a little drumming in his heart.

This ball looks like it's going to Alves!

But because the speed of the ball was too fast, Alves could not react. The football bounced off the ground less than 20 centimeters away from his feet and then quickly bounced straight to the lower left corner of the goal!

Goalkeeper Helton swooped in place in a hurry, obviously beyond reach!

The football flew directly into Porto's goal!

Suarez breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and fingered Gareth Bale.

At this stage, Gareth Bale is sending more shells to the striker than firing himself. Situ Yunbing deliberately asked for it, because obviously from the perspective of seizing the opportunity, Suarez and Falcao are stronger, and Gareth Bale can The burst shot is true, but the team’s current best configuration is to focus on Suarez and Falcao. The situation does not allow Situ Yunbing to have room for trial and error. At the moment, the combination of strikers is very balanced. Just keep going, and only when training on the domestic battlefield will Bell give Bell more freedom to grow.
