I'm 198cm tall. Are you giving me a Maradona template?

Chapter 83: Just One Person’s Difference [First Update]

"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL!!!"

In the commentary booth, Omar, the commentator of France 4 TV, raised his arms and cheered.

"Sunshine! Sunshine! Sunshine!! Oh! Oh! Incredible goal! Did you see that dribble he made? Oh my God, the bull's tail, a 1.98-meter-tall guy is playing with the bull's tail!"

The cheers of Monaco fans in the stands were filled with surprise and disbelief.

Everyone couldn't help but look at the big screen at the scene.

really.

TV directors know exactly what people want to see.

Filmed with a high-definition camera.

The movement of the sunlight slowed down several times.

He flicked the ball out and then quickly spiked it.
In the process, Laporte was completely unable to keep up with his rhythm.
Inside the CCTV studio.

Commentator He Wei was also amazed.

"Look at this move of Sunshine oh my god!"

"Many players can do a simple bull-tail pass, and I believe some fans in front of the TV can do it. But... under such a high-intensity confrontation and such a high-speed movement, it is amazing to be able to do such a move leisurely!"

"Perhaps compared to some domestic athletes, Yangguang's greatest characteristic is that he has no psychological burden at all. He is mentally stable and very brave to do these moves!"

The TV screen kept replaying this amazing move.

“Is a miracle going to happen?”

"Brilliant!"

"Ronaldo Yang Tinio!!"

Chinese fans were also amazed by Yang Guang's amazing move.

now.

Two words popped up in the minds of all Monaco supporters: miracle!
miracle
Is it going to happen?
But right now.

People then noticed Laporte colliding with the sunlight.

He lay on the ground for a long time without getting up.

His central defensive partner Etcheta noticed his situation.

"Hey, Aymeric. You okay?"

Etcheta bent down and looked at Laporte, who was lying on the ground motionless as if he was unconscious.

Laporte was still confused, he murmured: "I feel a little dizzy"

“Damn it!” Etcheta waved towards the sidelines, “Team doctor! Team doctor!!”

The Spanish commentator paid more attention to this collision.

"Sunshine is suspected of foul play!"

the Spanish commentator complained.

The TV broadcast also replayed the collision between the two.

Then he stopped talking.

Because the slow motion clearly proves that if it was a foul, Laporte's action was actually a foul.

Because he took the initiative to bump into it and tried to use his body to block the sunlight's path.

This time the collision.

It's entirely Laporte's own problem.

The Monaco players ended their celebration and ran back to their own half.

At this time, Laporte was also carried away on a stretcher.

Monaco players couldn't help but pray for Laporte.

Tulalang looked towards the sun.

"Yang, are you okay?"

Yangguang lifted up his jersey and looked at his right chest which was bruised from the impact. He reached out and pressed it, and couldn't help but grin, "It's okay, the bone is fine, it's just blackened and it hurts a little."

Turalang looked at the bruise on Yangguang's chest in surprise, then looked at Laporte with sympathy as he was carried away on a stretcher.

The Spaniard was carried away on a stretcher.

The sun damage seems to be just a little bruise
A completely disproportionate exchange ratio.

"How's the situation?"

Valverde didn't care about the current situation of losing the ball.

Rushed over to check on Laporte's condition.

The team doctor was busy and didn't say anything.

"Come on, man, look at my hands and follow them with your eyes, from left to right. Good."

"How much is this?"

"2"

"Okay, now how do you feel?"

“It seems to be much better!”

"Do you feel like vomiting?"

"no!"

The team doctor was obviously relieved: "Fortunately, there is no concussion, you can continue to play."

Valverde couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this.

At least, he doesn't have to replace Laporte now - he is the best central defender he has.

After Sunshine scored a goal, Jardim rushed to the sidelines with his arms raised to celebrate.

After the celebration is over.

He immediately realized: Monaco really has a chance to advance!
He returned to the coaching bench and discussed the next strategy with assistant coach Carlos.

The current situation is very delicate.

The total score is 2-1 ahead for Athletic Bilbao.

But if Monaco, playing at home, scores one more goal, they can tie the total score.

So now Monaco actually has only one choice: continue attacking.

And for Athletic Bilbao.

They were a little embarrassed.

They are leading in the aggregate score, but if they continue to defend, there is a high possibility that the opponent will score a goal and tie the aggregate score.

And there is another way before them: attack!
Just score an away goal.

Then Monaco is finished, they must beat Athletic Bilbao by three goals in this game.

Now the coaching staff of both sides are sitting in their seats, gathering together to discuss countermeasures.

Valverde's idea is to defend in the first half first, and then make adjustments in the second half. Athletic Bilbao can press forward appropriately and attack Monaco!

But before the coaching staff on both sides could come up with a conclusion.

The situation on the field changed again.

The 40th minute of the game.

Yangguang in the penalty area jumped high and pointed the ball towards the penalty spot.

Through his ferry.

Moutinho, who came from the back row, pushed the ball with his instep without waiting for it to fall.

The football flew straight towards the goal.

Monaco wins again!
Two to two!
See this goal.

Valverde threw the notebook in his hand directly to the ground.

Suddenly rushed to the sidelines.

"damn it"

The Spanish coach's face turned pale.

Come on.

This is just great.

The overall score advantage is gone.

Athletic Bilbao had no other choice in the second half.

Defense?

What a bullshit.

Valverde glanced at Jardim who was shouting and celebrating not far away, and his face was as black as a pot.

"A miracle! A miracle is about to happen!"

In the commentary box.

the commentators chanted.

Omar exclaimed, "Two to zero! The aggregate score is two to two!! Monaco only needs one more goal to eliminate Athletic Bilbao and advance to the final!!"

The moment the football flies into the goal.

Monaco fans jumped up.

He clenched his fists and shouted loudly, "Red and White Army! Red and White Army!!"

The entire Stade Louis II was ablaze with activity.

At the end of the first half.

The Monaco players all walked off the field with smiles on their faces.

They played with a substitute lineup, but now they are two goals ahead of their opponents.

The camera lens was fixed firmly on the sunlight.

"Compared to the first round, the only change Monaco made was letting Sunshine start! However, this change brought completely different results."

"Without the sunshine, Monaco lost 0-2 away from home. With the sunshine, they led 2-0 at the end of the first half and tied the aggregate score!"

"In the second half of the game, it's hard to say which of the two teams will advance to the finals. Both teams are now on the same starting line!"

Valverde hurried back to the locker room.

He will give clear instructions to his players before the start of the second half.

What a team fears most is a lack of unity of thought.

Especially when the situation is so delicate now.

If someone wants to defend, someone wants to attack.

Then the entire team will be torn apart, and will inevitably be defeated.

Whether it's offense or defense.

We all need to think together.

In the last few minutes of the first half, Valverde had only one question in his mind: Can Athletic Bilbao defend against the sun?
in other words.

If he chooses defensive tactics.

Can Athletic Bilbao's defense withstand the impact of the sun for 45 minutes?

In fact, the answer to this question is already obvious: the two goals conceded in the first half have already explained the problem.

Both goals were related to the sun.

His goals, his assists.

He has a strong suppressive power on the defense.

All these made Valverde completely lose confidence in defending for 45 minutes in the second half.

and so.

In the locker room, the decision he made was: attack!
Second half of the game.

Athletic Bilbao, take the initiative to attack!
"One goal! We only need one goal to kick the Monaco players into hell!"

Valverde raised a finger in the locker room.

Bilbao scores one.

If Monaco wants to turn the tables, they have to score two goals.

Valverde can still figure this out.

And for Yalding.

The problem he has to solve is also quite complicated.

He also knew that if Athletic Bilbao scored in the second half, even just one goal, Monaco's hopes of advancing would be very slim.

therefore.

He made some adjustments in the second half.

Decided to bring Saint-Maximin on.

He replaces Carrillo.

From the double center forward combination, we changed to a one-tall and one-square combination - Saint-Maximin is also very fast, and his breakthrough is very sharp.

The purpose of doing this.

It is to play defensive counterattack in the second half.

"Yang, you need to retreat a little in the second half. We need you to get the ball near the center circle. You are responsible for leading the offense. If there is no chance, protect the ball. If there is a chance to move forward, pass the ball to Alang! We will counterattack!"

In the locker room, Jardim had several arrows drawn on his tactical board, and the direction the arrows pointed to was Monaco's No. 39.

The formation on the tactical board at this time is a 4411 system.

In the absence of Seat B.

Jardim decided to let Sunshine have more control of the ball.

So, his position retreated a little.

And Saint-Maximin has only one task: run!
As soon as Yangguang gets the ball, he runs behind the opponent's defense line!
"They only need one away goal to have a huge advantage."

Yalding said.

"Plus, they don't have the confidence to defend against Yang's attack."

At this point, Yangguang interjected: "It is definitely impossible to prevent it!"

There was laughter in the locker room.

Yaerding also laughed, and then he waved his hand to signal everyone to stop, and continued: "That's right, they know they can't defend, so... they will definitely choose to press forward and attack!"

"Then, our chance to counterattack has come. As long as we steal the ball, no matter what method we use, we can pass the ball to Yang!"

"Yes! Pass the ball to me!"

Sunshine shouted.

The second half of the game started.

Valverde couldn't sit still at all.

Because the game didn't go the way he expected.

Monaco is very unsportsmanlike, they retreated to defend!

They fight back at home!

How shameless!

Valverde wanted to pull out his pistol and challenge Jardim to a duel.

If you are a man, rush out and attack!

But unfortunately, Monaco won't listen to him.

The expected situation of the two sides fighting against each other did not happen.

Instead, Athletic Bilbao pressed forward to attack, while Monaco was eager to counterattack.
It is the case that the host becomes the guest.

A frowning Valverde soon felt the pressure of Monaco's counterattack.

In the 52nd minute of the game, Yang Guang got the ball near the center circle, protected it, turned around and made a straight pass.

The football passed through the defense of Athletic Bilbao. At the same time, Saint-Maximin made a high-speed run, took on the opponent alone, and shot the ball into the stands.

"Saint-Maximin! Ahhhhh! This ball. This shot. This. This this this." Omar didn't know what to say.

The fans were ready to celebrate.

As a result, when they saw the football flying towards the stands, they couldn't help but sigh.

Yalding also shook his head with regret.

This is the kind of person Saint-Maximin is, he can dribble like Messi and shoot like Heskey.

If only his shooting skills were more reliable.

I'm afraid Mbappe has to worry about his starting position.
Jardim quickly clapped his hands to encourage Saint-Maximin.

After all, they are Monaco, and it is good enough to have Saint-Maximin as a substitute. Can you expect to be like Real Madrid, with even the bench filled with top stars?

"My mine."

Saint-Maximin hastily waved to the sun.

Yang Guang also felt a little regretful, but he did not blame Saint-Maximin for not scoring the goal.

“There’ll be another chance next time!”

He said.

Valverde is well aware of the threat that the forward combination of Sunshine and Saint-Maximin poses during counterattacks.

Sunshine can get the high ball, protect the ball, and pass the ball under pressure.

Such players seem to be extremely useful as bridgeheads in counterattacks.

Monaco now has 4 players in the midfield and 4 players in the back line, forming a clear 8-man double-line defense system.

Such defense is very solid and difficult for Athletic Bilbao to break through.

If this continues.

Athletic Bilbao's defense may be destroyed by Monaco's counterattack.

Valverde didn't hesitate for long, and took advantage of a dead ball opportunity to make a new arrangement: defense!
Anyway, the total score is now 2 to 2.

But when I thought about my defense line being ravaged by the sun soon.

Valverde was in pain again.

Attack, and they will use the sunlight as a bridgehead to counterattack you.

Defend
The Chinese are a terrifying battering ram.

Can you defend it?
The scalp on the back of Valverde's head is almost pulled up to his forehead, and the furrows in his brow are as big as the Alps.
It’s just about whether Yangguang will start or not.

Let his team experience the difference from heaven to hell
