251 Ready for the finals!
At the French Stadium, Monaco has maintained a high pressure counterattack in the frontcourt since scoring the goal, completely suppressing Paris Saint-Germain's formation to the backcourt!
Even if Varo and Edinci returned to the central circle to participate in defense, they still could not stop Monaco from dominating the game.
There were more than 50,000 Paris Saint-Germain fans at the scene. They looked at the Paris Saint-Germain players fighting on the field helplessly. Monaco was galloping like the wind, united and tacit, and the rhythm was highly unified. This was an unreserved reflection of the gap in overall strength between the teams!
Paris Saint-Germain was forced to fight back, but lacked some advancement points.
Jiuli is old, and long-distance raids are no longer his specialty. Even if Sesenion and Clement send out the overhead ball behind the Monaco back line, Varo and Edinci are unable to pose a one-on-one threat because of their poor speed. Vertonheng and Benatia are not weak in turning around and chasing back. In addition, after the baptism of large-scale games, it is not a problem to kill the opponent's simple and unchanging attack in experience.
Situ Yunbing stood on the sidelines with his head held high and his chest raised, his expression calm.
He should be glad that Paris Saint-Germain is still in the dark trough in the past two years, and Paris Saint-Germain will rise in two years!
Paris Saint-Germain is really not very bright now.
The mediocre defense line is only Sarco, the youngest captain in Paris Saint-Germain's history, who can still be highly expected, but how much potential Sarco, who is described as a "black pearl" by the French media, can realize in the future, not enough to become a role that turns the tide at the moment.
Sesenion in the midfield cannot support the overall situation alone. Last season, Marklele and Juli can barely make Paris Saint-Germain stronger, but this season's veterans are also getting too far away. In addition, Roten's departure from Glasgow is like breaking his own arm, Paris Saint-Germain's midfielder has no competitiveness in Ligue 1.
Edinchi on the front line has never been highly expected, and last season's fourth place in the scorer list, Varo, "The Hope of the Whole Village", has been indifferent to everyone this season.
Paris Saint-Germain now has neither Monaco nor Lille's teams' vitality nor Marseille or Bordeaux's mature combat power, nor the pragmatic spirit of Lorient and Ausselle.
Such an opponent is the training target before the Champions League final of Monaco, that's all.
What Situ Yunbing wants to see is the state of the Monaco team, the attitude of the players, and the rest are all in the details.
Before the first half was about to end, when Moro dribbled from the bottom of the left and turned into the inside and broke into the penalty area, his cross hit Kamala's slightly raised arm. When the Monaco players just complained, the referee pointed at the penalty spot in the penalty area.
Conbu Aure covered his face with his hands and rubbed it. Although Monaco's bombing failed to score a second time, it has made Paris Saint-Germain fans worried in the past 10 minutes, and it seems that the goal will appear at any time.
The penalty kicks are more natural now. If Kamala hadn't been dizzy, how could she even put her arms tightly against the torso or her back behind her when defending?
Falcao calmly shot and sent the ball into the upper left corner of the goal!
Goalkeeper Edel failed to magically save the ball, and Monaco expanded his lead before the end of the first half!
2:0
During the halftime break, Situ Yunbing asked the team to practice defensive counterattack tactics in the second half.
It can be said that Monaco is going to practice the two of their best playing styles today.
In the first half, the continuous attacks were made after pressing the midfield at a high position before pressing the joint defense. In the second half, if you have the conditions to play a defensive counterattack, let's practice.
Everything is for the Champions League final!
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and Monaco's formation retracted.
What made Situ Yunbing pleased was that the tactical execution of the Monaco generals was getting stronger and stronger. This tactical execution often did not mean a certain player, but the overall!
Because tactics are always based on a whole, not one person or two or three people in the local area.
Teams with strong tactical execution can achieve the overall rhythm of the team, avoiding disconnection or someone wanders outside the tactical system.
Paris Saint-Germain saw that Monaco began to focus on their main energy on defense, and they began to try to counterattack.
But obviously Paris Saint-Germain also knows himself and will not put a big push. Long shots were added in the middle, and Armand assists from the left. When Gulli was a little weak in defense by Moro and Matic, Armand could provide new offensive points on the left.
Monaco, while pursuing a rapid counterattack, strengthens the speed of midfield passes and improves the success rate of ball exit.
Gareth Bale and Falcao are often on one side. If Gareth Bale advances on the left, Falcao will immediately turn from the right to the middle, and the same is true for the other side. If Falcao advances on the right, Gareth Bale will cut the middle of the penalty area.
Even though the game has made many viewers feel no suspense, Situ Yunbing still pays serious attention to the team's offensive and defensive performance every time. When some players seem to have to relax, he will appropriately remind them to regain their concentration and increase their investment in the game.
It is not difficult to fight with your opponent in a critical battle, because the importance of the game and the intensity of the game will make players spontaneously cherish every minute and every second, as if they are selflessly integrated into the game. However, if they want to perform at a high level at critical moments, they still have to rely on a lot of such games that seem to be without suspense but can maintain concentration and treat every opportunity as precious!
In the 69th minute of the game, when Gareth Bale was attacked by several Paris Saint-Germain players while advancing from the left, he passed the ball diagonally in advance in the front of the penalty area.
Marklele made an obvious mistake when defending Falcao this time. He stretched his legs too early and caused Falcao to change direction and get rid of him. Then when facing Sacco, Falcao suddenly changed direction and dribbled into the right rib of the penalty area, and used his right foot to push the ball towards the near corner of the goal.
Edel saved this time, and the football rolled into the goal against the inside of the right post!
Falcao turned around and roared and rushed to the sidelines to slid and knelt down to celebrate, full of passion!
When the Monaco generals were celebrating the goal, Situ Yunbing walked to the coaching seat and sat down. He covered his mouth and asked Petty in a low voice: "You have seen so many football games. What do you think if our team needs to go all the way to the opponent in a short period of time when our team needs to go all out at one moment, what is the fastest way to play to our opponents in a short period of time?"
Situ Yunbing has always respected Petty very much. Not only because the other party is already 61 years old, he is still serving the club, but also because Petty is a good person and a person who truly considers the interests of the club. Just like when he first joined the company, he could feel that some people in the coaching staff were not satisfied with him and had serious questions about him. Situ Yunbing didn't know whether Petty had doubts, but he knew that Petty had never shown it and tried to maintain stability. This was also the reason why Monaco invited him to come out to assist the coach. He could bring stability. Situ Yunbing always remembered it in his heart and did not say it out loud, but his respect for Petty on weekdays was reflected in his words and deeds, which also allowed Petty to be respected and had a certain degree of majesty in the club.
Petty doesn't know why the young coach, who has always had unique insights into football tactics, would ask himself such questions.
Moreover, Situ Yunbing seems to be very cautious now.
Because he covered his mouth and made the outside world unable to see his mouth shape, Situ Yunbing had made headlines before because he had been interpreted by a lip expert in his words on the coach's seat. Although it was no big deal to be interpreted, he obviously became cautious.
Petty also raised her hand to cover her mouth and tilted her head and whispered in Situ Yunbing's ear.
“I think my understanding of football tactics and style play may be outdated, and at this point I think your approach is always the best for the team.
But since you asked me this question, I can't give a definite answer, I can only tell you the most profound tactical style of play that I remember."
Situ Yunbing nodded while listening, with an extremely serious expression.
"I played in Monaco for 14 years in the age of a player, from 1969 to 1982. During this period, the Dutch national team's full attack and defense were popular all over the world. Although I only watched four Dutch team games on site, the impact they showed in the game was very shocking!
On the scene, you will see that when the opponent is in possession, there are at least three Dutch players around him to press, and there will be at least four Dutch players within 20 yards. In addition to the goalkeeper, other Dutch players will basically be within the 0 yard range of the opponent's possession player!
You will feel the Dutch team going crazy!
The court is so big, but they are the targets of everyone siege the opponent's ball-handler and blocking short passes around the opponent's direction.
The Dutch team of that era was crazy, but now it’s outdated!”
Situ Yunbing was not surprised after hearing Petty's statement.
Petty did not work as a coach after his career ended. He did not invite him to help him control the locker room until the summer of 2008 when Debondan became the new chairman. In other words, he did not really pay attention to football before 2008, or he only had experience in the player era on a professional level.
For him, what impressed him the most was the Dutch team's attack and defense!
That was the glory that ran through the green world era of his career.
Even when Situ Yunbing looked through the video of the Dutch team's game, he could feel the shock that Petty said. The Dutch team's pressing all over the game really seemed crazy!
This has a background of the times, because the offside rule at that time was that as long as the opponent had one offside, no matter whether the receiver was offside or not, it would be considered offside. Therefore, the Dutch team's crazy pressing, as long as the opponent has an offside player, the opponent's straight pass will be punished by the referee for offside.
The reason why it is outdated is that on the one hand, the changes in offside rules are made, and on the other hand, the development of technology and tactics is faster. Once the pace is faster, there will be more tactical flaws. Moreover, utilitarian teams are also popular, such as Argentina in the mid-to-late 1980s.
Situ Yunbing fell into deep thought.
Monaco is preparing for the Champions League final. The big framework is definitely not moving, but he must be more prepared. How to play when the situation is stable and how to play when the situation is critical. If Monaco's existing playing style fails, what else can he do to gamble?
The opponent is Inter Milan!
