Chapter two hundred and ninety-five one step closer (guarantee
The media believe that Chang Sheng's arrogant attitude will anger all Monaco players and make them perform beyond their standards in the game, thus causing Valencia to lose the game.
After all, the second round is Monaco's home court. They already have the home court advantage bonus, and now you are fanning the flames. Doesn't that mean the combat effectiveness is doubled?
But this is a very superficial view.
Chang Sheng knew in his heart that what he did would not make Valencia's situation more dangerous - because it was already very dangerous, and it would not be much more dangerous.
Valencia is only one goal ahead of Monaco. This score gap is like a woman seducing Monaco's strong men in bed, which will make them full of fighting spirit and motivation in the second round.
It doesn't mean that they will become stronger just because Chang Sheng looks down on them - their upper limit is so high, no amount of stimulation will help them.
If Valencia were two or three goals ahead of Monaco, Chang Sheng wouldn't say anything like this, he would just prepare seriously and low-key.
If it is 1:0, the situation itself is very dangerous, and he is not afraid that it will become more dangerous.
By doing this, he will not make his situation worse. Instead, it will make Monaco think that he has been fooled and let down their vigilance. Only then will he have his chance.
※※※
After the head coaches of both sides exchanged words like shouting from afar, they each went about their own business.
There was no further response to this topic.
So Chang Sheng doesn’t know if his strategy is working.
But he has confidence.
As long as you do your job well, it doesn't matter what your opponent does.
Valencia's football has always been "me-based".
The three days came very quickly.
Monaco has the opportunity to reach the Champions League final this time, which can be regarded as completely stimulating the enthusiasm of Monaco fans.
The Louis II Stadium, which can accommodate more than 20,000 people, was packed. Monaco fans greeted their team with enthusiastic cheers and "welcomed" Valencia with boos.
Because of Chang Sheng's disdainful remarks before the game, many Monaco fans were unhappy with Valencia.
They can't respond to Chang Sheng's contempt with their own feet like the players do. They can only tell Chang Sheng through boos - you have offended us, you are dead!
Chang Sheng had already expected this scene.
But he is not worried that his team will not be able to withstand the pressure and perform abnormally.
Because they have been through harsher environments than this, and nothing happened.
Real Madrid's Bernabeu, Barcelona's Camp Nou, Atletico Madrid's Calderon, Athletic Bilbao's San Mames, Sevilla's Pizjuan, Deportivo La Coruna's Riazor... these
The team's home court is not friendly to Changsheng and Valencia.
In fact, it is mainly aimed at those who always win, but Valencia is a team that always wins, so it is natural that they often get hit.
Playing in these stadiums, Valencia's players must learn to adapt to how to play under pressure. They all learn quickly and learn well, otherwise Valencia will not be able to win the league for three consecutive seasons.
champion.
You must know that Real Madrid and Barcelona are the two giants in Spanish football. Any team that wants to win the championship must surpass them.
Valencia, which has always won, is not even afraid of the Bernabeu and Camp Nou, nor is it afraid of San Mamés, so what is there to be afraid of at the Louis II Stadium with only 20,000 people?
When he came to the Luis II Stadium, he felt very familiar with the constant victory. Because the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, the home of Getafe, the first team he coached, had a similar capacity to the Luis II Stadium.
They are all very small.
※※※
The match in Monaco was very intense. Monaco really fought hard in this match.
The players in Valencia all have this illusion - are we competing with Athletic Bilbao for tickets to the Champions League final in San Mamés?
There is no need to consider the league's long-term success. He will send all the main players he can in this game in order to ensure victory.
Twenty-two minutes into the game, Monaco opened the scoring, and Fernando Morientes equalized the total score for Monaco!
After this goal appeared, the commentator of Radio Marca couldn't help shouting: "Morientes avenged Real Madrid! This is the charisma of Real Madrid!"
If Morientes really heard this sentence, I don’t know what he would think...
※※※
Morientes' goal boosted Monaco's morale, and the fans at the Louis II Stadium cheered louder.
Monaco's offensive is fast and fierce, and they are ready to take advantage of the situation to take down Valencia.
But at this time, Reyes stood up.
Relying on his own personal skills, he dribbled horizontally from the edge of Monaco's penalty area, which disturbed Monaco's defense. He made a wall-breaking cooperation with Villa who retreated to meet him, and temporarily left the opponent behind by running without the ball.
defense, and then received Villa's response.
Reyes didn't stop the ball and directly met the ball with a kick from the inside of his left foot!
The football drew a very obvious arc, bypassed the fingers of Monaco goalkeeper Roma, and bent into the Monaco goal!
※※※
"Reyes! Reyes! Jose Antonio Reyes——!!! A valuable away goal! Valencia regained the lead in the total score! Reestablished the advantage!"
The Spanish commentator yelled wildly.
After Real Madrid was eliminated by Monaco, Valencia became the only player of Spanish football in the Champions League. The dignity of Spanish football can only be defended by them.
Therefore, the Spanish commentators also worked hard to cheer Valencia on.
Amid the wild shouts of the Spanish commentator, the Luis II Stadium fell silent.
Only a few Valencia fans were cheering, and their voices were once heard through the live broadcast signal.
This is their first "voice" in this game.
The sudden silence at Monaco's home ground was understandable.
Because this goal was a heavy blow to Monaco.
Valencia didn't just use this goal to regain the lead, but more importantly, it was an away goal!
2:1, plus an away goal, means that if Monaco wants to eliminate Valencia, it needs at least two more goals at home!
It's much more difficult than scoring a goal.
Moreover, Valencia's offensive power is so strong, who can guarantee that they will not score goals in subsequent games?
Monaco had only seen that there was only one goal difference between them and Valencia before. This was their opportunity, but they did not expect that this was their home court. As long as Valencia scored one goal, it would be an away goal. Compared with Monaco, one goal was an away goal.
They don't have the ball, but Valencia does, and that's a huge advantage.
When thinking of this cruel point, Monaco's supporters suddenly fell silent...
※※※
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again. In the 49th minute, Morientes brought some hope to Valencia.
He scored twice and tied the total score at 2:2.
Next, Monaco only needs to score one more goal.
Of course, Valencia must also stop scoring goals.
But can they do it?
I'm afraid it's difficult...
※※※
The game reached a stalemate, and neither Valencia nor Monaco could break through the opponent's goal.
Especially for Monaco. Valencia didn't score because they didn't need to score, they just needed to defend, so they focused more on defense during this period.
Facing Valencia's defensive method of controlling the ball, Monaco really didn't have any good solutions.
In the 60th minute, Deco ended the Monaco's fantasy.
His long shot from outside the penalty area blasted away the goal guarded by Roma.
The total score became 3:2, Valencia led by one goal and had two away goals.
Monaco still had to score two more goals.
Many people have set their sights on Morientes, who is on loan from Real Madrid.
They hope that Morientes' status as a Real Madrid player can generate hatred for Valencia in Morientes, allowing him to explode in this game. He can completely destroy Valencia by himself and avenge Real Madrid.
avenge.
A hat trick or a big four would be fine.
But Morientes did not continue his outstanding performance next time.
After taking the lead again, Valencia began to consciously slow down the pace.
They used their weapon of controlling the ball again.
Controlling the football at his feet, facing Monaco's pressing, he calmly and calmly moved his feet back and forth, allowing Monaco's players to return without success again and again.
This tactic left Monaco's players desperate.
No matter how hard they tried, they just couldn't win the game because they couldn't even get the ball from their opponent's feet.
And Monaco is definitely not the first time a team has felt desperate.
Valencia has used this tactic to defend and has stifled many teams.
Monaco is a new addition.
※※※
When there were five minutes left in the game, the Monaco fans had resigned themselves to their fate. The shouts at the Louis II Stadium were much quieter.
Even including injury time, the remaining time in the game was only eight minutes.
It is not impossible to score two goals in eight minutes, but the prerequisite is that the football is at your feet, not at the feet of your opponent...
Now that Valencia is firmly in control of the ball, Monaco can't steal it even if they want to, and they can't even meet the most basic requirements. How can they talk about a reversal and a decisive victory?
Therefore, the Louis II Stadium gradually became quiet, and many Monaco fans even left the stadium early. They were worried that there would be too many people before they left the stadium after the game, public transportation would be difficult to use, and private cars would be blocked.
At this time, the support for Monaco is clearly outweighed by practical considerations. The love for Monaco seems to be less than the worry about traffic jams...
The reality is so cruel.
"The game is over! Valencia has reached the Champions League final! This is their second Champions League final after two years! They will compete with Porto led by Mourinho in the final!"
Chang Sheng waved his fist and celebrated his victory.
One step closer to the Triple Crown!
