Football: From becoming a god-level striker

Chapter 302 Ways to limit Mbappe

In the Manchester City locker room, there was some silence.

Otamendi covered his face and leaned on the bench. It was really difficult for him to restrain Mbappe. This kid had too much impact.

And the passing level of Monaco's players is quite good.

Fabinho and Bakayoko in the midfield position have also grown extremely rapidly after the first round of confrontation between the two sides.

It seems that Zhao Gang opened up the second branch of Ren and Du, and the defensive experience of the two has been greatly improved. With Falcao, they did a very good job of intercepting Zhao Gang.

This [-] lineup dealt a near-destructive blow to Manchester City.

"We have problems on the defensive end and the offensive end! The chances on the offensive end are poorer. This has something to do with the luck mentality. In the second half, you don't need to have too much pressure, let alone be impatient. We will definitely score.

The problem on the defensive end is too serious!But you have to admit that your defensive level cannot limit young people like Mbappe, Bernardo Silva, and Lemar! "Guardiola started summing up the whole first half like a disaster.

In his opinion, Manchester City's offensive level has not been brought into play, and the defense is indeed somewhat inferior.

As long as the offensive end can perform normally, it will definitely score goals!

"If Zhao is restricted, you will become a group of mediocre offensive players. Do you believe this? Even without Zhao, you are the most outstanding offensive combination in the Premier League and in the entire European football! You guys A few cheer me up!

Throughout the second half, it may be difficult for you to get Zhao's offensive support! !

If so, you will not play football? ? "

De Bruyne, Jesus, and Sterling stared at Guardiola in a daze.

What do you mean?

Will not get support in the second half?

Are you going to replace him?

Isn't that all over?

He will definitely find opportunities on the court, even if he is surrounded by three people, he will definitely find a way to break out of the encirclement!

"We must first find a way to limit the three young men in Monaco, and then find a way to score a goal and eliminate Monaco! So in the second half, Zhao's defensive task will be very heavy!!"

After much deliberation, Guardiola made a bold decision.

……

Soon, the second half of the game began.

Once again, warm cheers sounded from the stands at the Etihad.

These fans were a little confused in the first half, but they have almost adjusted after the midfield.

In this case, they should come up with the most ferocious cheers for their home team.

Let these players know that no matter what happens, the Manchester City fans stand behind them and support them!

"Guardiola made two substitutions and made adjustments at the beginning of the second half. Guardiola's courage is still very strong!

Kompany replaced Otamendi, and attacking midfielder Delph replaced midfielder Fernando!

This substitution means that Manchester City is about to launch a Jedi counterattack. Is it going to become a [-] formation again? ? "

In the original four-two-three-one, Fernando partnered with Fernandinho's defensive midfielder, and the defensive effect was not good. Now Guardiola directly replaced a midfielder with a central midfielder.

It seemed that he was going to charge directly.

"If Manchester City does not score now, they will be eliminated. It is normal to increase offensive players, but is it a little anxious? Is it time to start a full-scale attack?

Once there is any problem on the defensive end, it will be beyond redemption! "

The faces of the Manchester City players were a little dignified, and the Monaco players were equally expressionless. They haven't decided to eliminate Manchester City yet. As long as Manchester City's total score equalizes, they will be eliminated!

During the halftime break, Jardim told them to pay attention to defense, and at the same time, they must not give up offense. Blindly defending cannot defend.

Only a sharp counterattack can contain Manchester City's offense.

"Even if we knock out Manchester City, we won't be able to create Monaco's new European record, but we will create new glory!

After this night, we will be the focus of the whole of Europe!

And you, my children, you are the heroes of Monaco, you are the bright future stars!

superior!Beat Manchester City!Let the whole Ittihad sink! ! "

With Jardim's inspiring encouragement, the Monaco players stepped onto the field in high spirits.

There are still 45 minutes to eliminate Manchester City!

"Manchester City's position is still four-two-three-one. Zhao Gang's position is retreated, and he is more involved in the defense. Guardiola is going to let him and Fernandinho help defend Monaco's trident. ?"

The game has been going on for 55 minutes, and the commentators from all over the world finally saw it. This time Zhao Gang stood on the midfielder. After getting the ball, he did not advance as fast as before. Instead, he kept moving the ball. Stand your ground quickly.

When Monaco was attacking, Zhao Gang even started marking Mbappe directly!

It makes it difficult for Mbappe to face the central defender directly.

"As a whole, Manchester City, judging from the current situation, there is really only one Zhao Gang who can keep up with Mbappe in speed! But defending Mbappe, even if he can limit him, will consume a lot of physical energy. In this case I'm afraid it will be difficult for Zhao Gang to have a lot of opportunities to participate in the attack... Ouch!! Zhao Gang!!"

Zhan Lu watched the live broadcast and saw Monaco counterattack again and found Mbappe.

The young and energetic Mbappe started sprinting with the ball, and Zhao Gang started a race with Mbappe directly according to Guardiola's arrangement!

Mbappe exploded with one kick, then took a big step, and sprinted!

But Zhao Gang's start was a little slower, but the speed was getting faster and faster. The two ran towards the football at the same time. When they were about to touch the football, they were almost in the same position.

Almost at the same time, both of them got into physical confrontation, ready to push each other away and get the ball!

After the fierce collision, Mbappe's steps were disordered, he staggered and fell to the side, and rolled three or four times before stopping.

Zhao Gang stood in front of the football and pushed it to Kompany.

"Mbappe's speed is almost comparable to that of Zhao Gang, but the absolute speed is still a bit slower, and the physical confrontation is much worse. This fall is a bit heavy! But there is no way, this is football, within the rules , whoever falls is not justified."

Mbappe sat on the lawn, his little black face wrinkled. His best offensive weapon, which was invincible before, was useless at this time.

How could Zhao Gang, who broke Bell's fastest sprint speed on the court, lose to Mbappe, who has not yet fully grown up?

The direct collision of two future stars ended with Mbappe rolling aside.

The fans at Ittihad yelled wildly, applauding Zhao Gang's super speed and confrontation, and also desperately cheering for their team.

Goal, goal!

As long as you enter one, you can take the initiative!

This kind of sprint consumes a lot of physical energy. Zhao Gang didn't turn around and run with the ball, but let Kompany start to organize the attack.

Kompany is a central defender. In Manchester City's offensive system, he can also take the ball forward and has a very good long-range shooting ability.

This kind of long shot helped Manchester City score a lot of points before he was injured.

The offensive and defensive rhythm of the two sides is very fast. Manchester City wants to score goals, while Monaco does not blindly defend, and invests a lot in offense.

Therefore, Monaco's attacking group in the frontcourt can consume a lot, and it also caused a great loss of physical energy for Zhao Gang and Fernandinho's two midfielders. It is difficult for Zhao Gang to sprint directly with the ball to find opportunities like before.

Both De Bruyne and Sterling are in very good physical condition, and Jesus Delph did not consume much.

Therefore, after Zhao Gang retreated and increased his defense, Monaco's offensive speed was very fast, but it was much less threatening.

And Manchester City's impact began to show, even if there was no goal, it also made Monaco's defense precarious.

"Monaco has been much less offensively threatening in the recent period. Zhao Gang is not only filling the position of central defender, but also often appears on the wing to help defend Lemar, a speedy midfielder!

It reduced the impact of Monaco a lot.

Although his offensive ability was sacrificed, the defensive end has stabilized.

Manchester City are moving in a better direction, as long as they can score a goal in the next 25 minutes and keep conceding no goals, they will eliminate Monaco and advance.

Although the initiative is still in the hands of Monaco, the fans and players of Monaco are obviously more worried about the situation than the people of Manchester City!

Monaco have lost the courage to fight to the death in the first half, they have nothing to lose in the first half!So it showed a crazy offensive scene.

Now, Monaco no longer dare to concede the ball easily! "

After 605 minutes of the game No. [-], there was a watershed.

At the beginning of the second half, the Monaco players who were still attacking had lost their previous vigor at this time, and they began to retreat consciously!

As the commentary said, bare feet are not afraid of wearing shoes. When they have shoes, they start to worry about gains and losses.

Even if the head coach Jardim knows that it is impossible to defend Manchester City with pure defense, the players don't think so anymore.

Hold the score to advance!

Besides, Mbappe, Bernardo Silva, and Lemar all rushed too hard, and they were a little unable to support their physical fitness. If they rushed a few times, they might have cramp.

Monaco began to enter the defensive state.

And this also freed Zhao Gang. Mbappe's position is no longer so forward. It is somewhat difficult to sprint to directly threaten Manchester City's penalty area.

He started to get the ball and then dribbled it forward.

Guardiola kept pacing on the sidelines. Manchester City has done a good job of pulling the attack during this period, and the five-footed shot is also extremely threatening, but it is either slightly wide or destroyed by goalkeeper Subasic.

Manchester City seems to be a little bit of luck, otherwise they have already scored!

The effort of Manchester City's attacking players is also one of the reasons why Monaco want to defend firmly.

Guardiola kept pacing on the sidelines, his face sinking like water.

With 10 minutes left, Monaco had obviously lost the idea of ​​attacking across the board, and would only counterattack with a long pass.

Then Manchester City's defense should not have too many problems.

Zhao Gang will be liberated.

The huge consumption of physical energy is likely to deform Zhao Gang's movements and make mistakes in attack.

Guardiola had no expression on his face, and he was already praying in his heart.

Zhao, your physical fitness must not be a problem, now is your chance!

Whether we can enter the top eight and escape the pillar of shame is up to you!

Kill me!

Mbappe has stolen so much glory, don't you want to fight back? ?

Are you going to watch him step on you to take over?

Even if you can guard him and win in a solo matchup, but he scored twice and killed Manchester City!

This time, you still lost!

Praying in his heart and anxious again, Guardiola stopped and stared at the pitch.

"what!!!!"

Guardiola suddenly lost his demeanor, his eyeballs almost popped out, and he could stuff five or six burgers into his mouth.

He kept raising his legs a few times, turned his head and hugged Arteta tightly in his arms.
