Football says that complexity can be very complicated.
World-class coaches can write several books with different tactics to highlight the important role of coaches in the team.
But it can be simple to say.
Most goals are nothing more than offensive organization, advancement, and opportunity to create complete shots.
On the other hand, the defense is the same. In these three links, it can destroy the opponent's offensive.
Even if Monaco encountered difficulties in previous positional wars, most of them were in the last stage.
If you cannot create an excellent shooting opportunity, the shooting effect is a bit low, but fortunately, after a large number of shots accumulate, you can still seize the opportunity to complete the goal.
The situation today is a little different. They are directly in trouble in the first step of creating goals, the second step is straightforward, and the third step is creating a shooting opportunity as if it is out of reach!
Bordeaux is 5 midfielders, front midfielder Celtic presses against Tularan, and forward Valo harasses from behind.
Kurzawa followed up on the wing, left forward Bele and midfielder Enghemo supported the blockade to the wing area, and full-back Orban, which formed a triangle system.
Moutinho also joined in the fun according to his usual style of play, which led to him taking another midfielder Traore to the right half of the frontcourt. At this time, as long as Celtic blocked the line of the frontcourt to pass the back Tulalang, Bordeaux will form a 5-defense and 3-defense encirclement situation!
The narrower the space, the more likely Monaco's offensive cooperation is to make mistakes.
Monaco's other offensive points are not easy either. Ye Yifeng is not on standby on the wing for a long time, and he is active in the area between the front and the middle.
Bordeaux right forward Cabney always defends him closely, behind him is the defense of the guest right back Forber.
Before Kurzawa withdraws, Abidal will be very cautious in assists. If he really ignores the defense and goes to the frontcourt, Monaco needs to be able to pass the ball from the right first in time!
Although Condobia can also participate in the frontcourt offense, Monaco's dilemma is that once the attack hits the right side of the frontcourt, the entire main battlefield will be compressed into a very small space, and Bordeaux's crazy encirclement will play a role immediately!
If you try to launch an offensive from the left, Monaco will first be less efficient in cooperation than on the right. When Bordeaux acts as usual to encircle, Monaco will only be intercepted faster!
Bordeaux's offense is very simple. After intercepting the ball, the high center forward Varo ran in the frontcourt and successfully formed a fulcrum to pass the ball to the teammates who were inserted behind.
The player who inserted the back of Bordeaux advances and retreats like the wind. If you don’t have the chance to enter the penalty area, you will shoot long-range shots. If you have the chance, you will fight, or control the rhythm, and wait for Valo to enter and play and pass and cut to cooperate.
The defense is rough and the offense is simple.
Ye Yifeng rarely encounters such situations that he is almost perfectly restrained by his opponent in his career!
Monaco is suppressed when he is an opponent like Paris Saint-Germain!
Some opponents are not afraid of being restrained when they set up buses.
But it is rare for him to run as a forward no matter how hard he works in an offensive dangerous area, he can't even run the ball!
It's not that he can't control the ball.
But the teammates can't pass it!
The right-road offensive, which had been smooth for almost two months, was like hitting a plate today!
The harder they try to make a fuss on the right, the more they seem to be narrowing the road!
If he retreats to respond on a large scale, even possessing the ball will not make much sense, because Monaco's offensive is still at the first step of the offensive organization, or it has just arrived at the second step to start advancing.
It's still far from creating a shot in the third step!
On the contrary, Rivier was somewhat ignored by Bordeaux at the front of the front line.
Therefore, when Monaco's offense is repeatedly set, it will suddenly rush and achieve little effect, which is completely a chance.
In the 39th minute of the game, when Moutinho responded to Jamez Rodriguez's pass in the frontcourt, the football was directly destroyed by midfielder Engelmo.
The wing forward Belle passed the ball directly to the front court after taking the ball from the front to the left.
Center Varo quickly ran and slowly advanced after controlling the ball in the frontcourt. When Condobia rushed to defend, he knocked the ball across the middle.
The front midfielder Celtic followed up and stopped and rushed to the front of the penalty area. At this time, he also slowed down. When Carvalho hit him, Celtic passed the ball diagonally to the front of the left.
Varo quickly cut in and dribbled the ball and came to the middle of the penalty area to volley!
Football rushed into Monaco's goal like a cannonball!
Subaci couldn't stand it at all!
The generals of Bordeaux cheered and cheered.
Head coach Gillo was still expressionless, but his eyes were full of confidence!
Monaco fans looked at each other, and this scene was relatively rare.
Monaco was not suppressed in the scene.
But the attack does not produce any threat.
The first half of the game is almost over. Not to mention a decent shot, there is no chance to take a shot even if you take a chance!
Perhaps Monaco is not willing to try to cum a few times!
No matter how you look at it, you are irresponsible.
The exception is in conflict.
At the end of the first half, Monaco players were in a mess when they walked towards the player channel.
Been sealed!
No shot!
But even the audience knows that it has nothing to do with the forward.
Bordeaux's defensive blockade is doing a great job!
Ranieri knew the team was facing a new challenge.
He has changed the team's style of play before, but it does not mean that other teams will not make targeted defensive adjustments.
Previously, he played the ultimate advantage on the right, and whether he was strong or transferred to the left, he could play against his opponent with unexpected results by relying on Abidal's contact, and he was still in trouble when facing a strong opponent.
To break Bordeaux's blockade, according to their playing style this season, either they can pass quickly in the middle to make a delicate cooperation, or they can fly together with both wings to threaten the opponent's defense.
This requires the team to be fast-paced and not to get too involved with their opponents on local battlefields.
Like a simple and crude long pass, Ranieri never considered it.
Bordeaux is prepared. If Monaco wants to use the rushing tactic to solve the battle, it will probably make the opponent laugh to death.
During the halftime break, Ranieli made adjustments in a intensive manner. If he wanted to make a fuss in the middle, there would be too many changes. At least one of Tularang and Condobia wanted to hold a position in the frontcourt while quickly and effectively connecting the frontcourt attack group.
Compared to the requirement of flying together on both wings is simpler.
Ye Yifeng pulled the edge to the left and as long as someone in the middle of Monaco could support him, the game of dead chess will be revived!
The two sides changed sides and fought again in the second half.
Ye Yifeng was waiting for an opportunity on the left side of the frontcourt like a traditional winger.
In this situation, even if he works hard to defend, it doesn't make much sense.
Bordeaux seizes the opportunity to counterattack. Unless Ye Yifeng returns to the backcourt and takes the initiative to do defensive work, he will not have time to sprint backcourt as soon as possible.
When Monaco began to frequently transfer the offensives from both left and right sides, Ye Yifeng could still make the situation change with the cooperation between the left and Abidal.
He will not easily cut in the dribble unless the right offensive threatens, causing Bordeaux's defense to tilt significantly in the middle. When Monaco transfers the ball to his side, he will have obvious cut in.
But it is difficult to shoot after cutting inside. Bordeaux defender Prani is experienced and right forward Cabney obviously has a close-kick to Ye Yifeng today.
He passes the ball more and cooperates with his teammates.
Veteran Forbell played a cameo as a right back. Although he has rich defensive experience, Ye Yifeng was unable to maintain close-fitting and tight defense at any time because of his active running position.
Ye Yifeng made a cross from the bottom or cut inward to meet the teammates and then cooperated with his teammates. He wanted to create a shooting opportunity in the penalty area and was not very ideal.
As time goes by, Bordeaux's defense is more decisive and fierce!
However, the improvement in the situation allowed Monaco to shoot long shots sporadically on the outside!
But there is no good starting position, and it is impossible to be uninterrupted. Ye Yifeng, Moutinho, and James Rodriguez's long-range shots are not effective.
Ranieri's midfield adjustment direction is fine, but the effect is impossible to reverse the situation all at once.
Monaco was able to barely reach the third step by using the width of the field at least in offensively, creating some shooting opportunities.
How to improve the number and quality of shooting opportunities?
This requires the ability to achieve an offensive depth advantage based on the current basis!
The threat of counterattack from Bordeaux still exists.
Before the stage of fighting for life, Ranieri had to let Martial warm up first.
When the game came to 70 minutes, Bordeaux took the lead in substitution.
Gilo used two substitutions at one time.
Young forward Thomas Toure appears to replace Valo.
Defender Puenjie replaces Kabney!
Gilo's ideas are all reflected in his actions.
Back defender Puenjie replaced veteran Forbell at the right back, who liberated and expanded the defense range to guard Ye Yifeng!
Faster young forward Thomas Toure keeps fighting back threats!
Jilo was afraid that Ye Yifeng would start the "Rampage Mode" again!
He didn't believe that Ye Yifeng could still run to the dribble with more than 40 yards to score a shocking long-range shot!
Even if no one in Monaco's entire attack group is outstanding today, there is no way to see who can create a threat.
Front midfielder Moutinho, right winger Jamet Rodriguez, center Rivier, if judging from the data, Ye Yifeng is indeed the best, with an advantage in passing success rate, but it is limited to this.
But Jiluo is going to block Ye Yifeng!
Regardless of whether it is targeted or not, he has done so anyway.
Bordeaux is changing players.
Ranieri knew that Monaco should do it too!
When playing at home, there is a goal to compete for the championship. You should not hesitate when it comes to giving it a try.
Carvalho ended.
Martial appears!
Go to the left and fight out!
Free Ye Yifeng!
After Martial appeared, although Ye Yifeng should have gone directly to the left rib of the penalty area to move, this could create a threat of a double center.
But he didn't do that.
Bordeaux has a tight defense today. In order to ensure that Martial can threaten on the left, he will first provide support or cover for Martial in the area near the left. Only after the attack depth advantage is played will he insert the inward cut and break into the penalty area.
I don’t know how effective Bordeaux substitutions are, but Monaco’s substitutions seem to be immediate.
When Martial and Ye Yifeng were less than 5 yards apart in a short distance, he quickly went down the bottom with his speed advantage and sent a cross.
Although Ye Yifeng didn't have time to follow up in the first wave, after the football was cleared by Mariano's header, he happened to stand outside the penalty area at the landing point, stopped the ball in his chest and changed direction, and took the lead to block Traore. The opponent obviously did not expect Ye Yifeng to connect after passing by to protect the ball.
He should have a slight advantage in physical confrontation, but was blocked by Ye Yifeng and took a step back. Ye Yifeng lowered his head and shot!
As soon as the football flew into the penalty area, it was rubbed by Mariano's head and then refracted and flew out of the bottom line.
Ye Yifeng then looked up and saw James Rodriguez cut inward to the open position on the right side of the penalty area. He raised his hand to express his apology.
I didn't see it just now.
After successfully playing the position, he was a little bit arrogant. The Rivier in front was stared to death, and he subconsciously chose to shoot himself.
Bordeaux coach Gilo gritted his teeth secretly.
It still gave Ye Yifeng the opportunity to start a foot!
He walked to the sidelines with a gloomy expression, shouting and gestured to the players on the field.
Don't look at Bordeaux leading with one goal.
But Bordeaux began to show disadvantages in the second half.
Chapter completed!
