When playing football, you should call it GOAT.

Chapter 52 Commander, Paris is just ahead! (Please continue reading!)
In the 45+1 minute, Strasbourg won a free kick in the attacking third.

23 meters from the goal, slightly to the right – that's Strasbourg veteran Corentin Martins' "sweet spot"!
Monaco fielded a five-man wall (including Roy), but Martins dribbled around the wall with a low shot, forcing goalkeeper Roma to make a desperate dive to the side!
Strasbourg almost equalized the score.

With a one-goal lead, someone in the locker room was blasting music from a deep bass, deafeningly loud.

Evra jumped shirtless onto a bench, grabbed a water bottle and used it as a microphone, rapping to the crowd.

50 Cent's "In da Club," one of the most iconic hip-hop hits of the 2000s, undeniably showcases Evra's racial talent.

Roy and several other players were infected by his joy and unconsciously started humming along, nodding their heads.

“When I roll 20 deep is 20 knives in the club.
(When I went to the club, I was always surrounded by 20 burly thugs.)
Niggas heard i fuck with dre now they wanna show me love.
(The black guys all tried to curry favor with me when they heard I was hanging out with Dre.)

Roy sang a string of lyrics without any restraint, but his gaze still unconsciously swept towards Evra, who didn't seem to care at all.

Perhaps it's because he did indeed work with Dr. Dre in his past life, helping Dre recover lost audio files hundreds of times.

In the corner, there seemed to be an invisible barrier in front of Shabani's cabinet door.

Deschamps' shadow loomed over us.

"Shabani".

The coach's voice cut through the noise, "That crossbar."

He paused deliberately until Shabani looked up: "That means your positioning was perfect."

"Next time, try pushing the far corner with the inside of your right foot."

The 56th minute of the game.

Marquez observed the runs near the center circle and suddenly delivered a low, diagonal shot. The ball was extremely fast and went straight through the gap between Strasbourg players Camardini and Martins!
Roy dropped back to receive the ball, deftly controlled it with the instep of his foot, turned around, and faced the charging Delof, using a Cruyff-style dribble to create an angle!

Commentator: "Max's surgical pass! Strasbourg's midfield defense has been cleaved in two! Roy controls the ball, cuts it off, turns, and gets past his marker!"

After Roy dribbled past Delof, he accelerated instantly, leaving Delof behind. After dribbling forward two steps, he suddenly passed the ball to Rothen, who was making a run down the left flank!
Rothen received the ball and strode forward, using his speed to outpace Strasbourg's right-back Beyer and break into the left flank!

"Roy's vision! He could have chosen to break through on his own, but he trusted Rothen's left flank!"

Rothen burst to the edge of the penalty area, and facing the covering Devo, he delivered a diagonal pass with the outside of his right foot!
Roy understood immediately and ran in the opposite direction, directly drawing Fisher's defensive attention!
Shabani seized the opportunity to block Devor's position, using his strong body to hold off Devor and receive the ball steadily!
"Rothen's passing was brilliant! Roy's off-the-ball movement was art – he attracted defenders like a magnet!"

After receiving the ball, Shabani cut inside with his right foot, shifting Devor's weight!
He then adjusted his position and unleashed a powerful right-footed shot into the near corner!

The ball flew straight into the net like a cannonball, leaving goalkeeper Fernandez with no chance!
"BUUUUUT! Shabani Nonda! He's finally found his shooting boots! That powerful shot completely shattered Strasbourg's defense!"

Shabani roared as he charged toward the corner flag area, pounding his chest as if to vent his pent-up emotions!
Giuly was the first to rush up and hug him, whispering something in his ear. Shabani laughed and pushed him away, pointing to the fans in the stands.

Then Roy and the others rushed up and pinned him down on the grass.

Deschamps clenched his fist in celebration on the sidelines, but quickly regained his composure and gestured to the players: "Focus, there's still time!"

He was terrified of relegation last season, so he's becoming more cautious the closer he gets to the championship this season.

Commentator Jean-Pierre exclaimed, "That's football! How much doubt did Shabani endure? But this powerful shot silenced all the critics!"

The 67th minute of the game.

Giuly received the ball on the right flank, and facing the defense of Strasbourg's left-back Ellet, he suddenly made a croquet-like change of direction and cut into the edge of the penalty area!

Ellett was forced to mark, and Strasbourg's defense instantly shifted to the right, forcing center-back Fischer to cover and block Giuly's possible shooting lane. Just as Giuly was about to cross, Roy suddenly surged diagonally from the edge of the penalty area to the near post!
Fisher was forced to closely mark Roy, leaving Strasbourg's central defense completely exposed!
Instead of shooting, Giuly delivered a right-footed, curving cross that was fast and pinpointed, heading straight for the edge of the six-yard box!
Shabani burst forth from the ground, overpowering Devor, and with a powerful header, slammed the ball into the net!
3 is better than 0!

After scoring, instead of rushing to Giuly who had provided the assist, he ran straight to Roy, and their eyes met.

Shabani growled, "Is that enough?!"

Roy raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "That's awesome, Shabani."

Suddenly, Shabani threw a punch, landing a light but firm blow on Roy's chest. Roy pretended to wince in pain and took a half-step back, and the two of them burst into laughter at the same time.

Juli spread his hands on the side, then smiled and joined in the celebration, ruffling Shabani's curly hair.

"Nonda scored twice! But he thanked Roy! Look at this celebration—Monaco's attacking chemistry transcends words! Giuly's pass was beautiful, but Roy's 'ghost run' was also a killer move!"

The Strasbourg players looked dazed, while Monaco fans chanted, "Nous sommes les champions!" (We are the champions!).

Deschamps began making substitutions to conserve energy for the next match against Paris Saint-Germain, but Nonda's eyes told everyone: he still wanted a hat-trick!

The Paris of today is not the "Greater Paris" of the future. Before the Qatari consortium took over, Paris Saint-Germain faced long-term financial pressure, and the management had limited investment in player recruitment and youth training.

Ronaldinho quickly became a key player after joining Paris Saint-Germain in 2001, but the team's overall squad was inadequate. PSG lacked stable support in the midfield and defense, and the forwards failed to form effective combinations. Although Ronaldinho showed his talent (his outstanding performance in the 2002 World Cup), his individual ability alone was insufficient to support the team's offense and defense.

The team had a deep conflict with manager Luis Fernandez due to Fernandez's lazy and pleasure-seeking personality. Ronaldinho lacked a stable tactical role on the field, relying more on improvisation, and the team failed to build a balanced lineup around him. The lack of top-class players in defense and midfield led to an imbalance between attack and defense.

PSG averaged only 1.2 goals per game that season, demonstrating poor attacking efficiency.

Although Paris Saint-Germain is only ranked ninth in the league, they have performed well against strong teams.

In the first half of the league season, they only lost one game against the top six teams, a 3-1 away loss to Monaco.

除此之外，保持不败，其中2比0里昂、3比0马赛、5比0甘冈。

It can be described as robbing the rich to help the poor.

Regardless, the Parc des Princes is the most crucial battle in the title race, and it will be a tough fight.

The 72th minute of the game.

Roy received the ball on the left wing, and facing Beye's close marking, he suddenly flicked the ball with his heel to change direction and got past him in an instant!
Devor came to cover, Roy didn't slow down, the frizzy ball wobbled again, and Devor made a sloppy sliding tackle, only to hit nothing!
A third defender rushed in, but Roy calmly passed the ball across to Nonda and then turned and made a forward run!
Nonda, with his back to the defender, passed the ball back to Coubillier, who had just come on as a substitute for Giuly.

Coubillie feinted a shot and then passed the ball to the ground. He looked like he was about to unleash a powerful shot with his right foot, but suddenly used the instep of his foot to send a low through ball that went between the legs of two defenders!
Roy made a diagonal run into position, took a step with his right foot, and faced goalkeeper Fernandez directly!
He calmly observed the situation, feigned a shot to the top right corner, but suddenly flicked his ankle and slotted the ball through the opponent's legs! 4-0!

"An artistic goal! Roy's breakthrough was like a knife, Coubillier's pass was like a needle, and the final nutmeg was the ultimate humiliation for Strasbourg's defense! 4-0, the game is no longer in doubt!"

Roy punched and roared as he charged toward the corner flag, leaping up and turning 180 degrees to punch and roar again.

Monaco fans went wild, chanting in unison: "Le Diable! Le Diable!"
The fourth official on the sidelines held up a sign: Pulso replaces Roy.

As Roy walked off the field, Deschamps gave him a firm squeeze on the back of the neck, and then Roy high-fived Pulso, who was about to come on.

Before warming up, Abidal tossed a water bottle to Roy, who caught it mid-air, and the two smiled at each other.

Strasbourg players looked dejected, while Monaco fans had already begun celebrating their league title.

Pulso immediately made his presence known after coming on with a powerful shot that hit the post – this Monaco team is terrifying!
