Green Ace Marshal

When Situ Yunbing walked into the Louis II Stadium, he clearly felt the atmosphere of today's stadium is different!

The fans greeted his entrance with fanatical and neat cheers!

There was also a huge screen fluttering in the opposite stand, and the pictures above made Situ Yunbing lost in an instant!

On the huge screen, there was Situ Yunbing's heroic posture of directing the game from the sidelines. His expression was majestic, his fingers were on one side, and his eyes were sharp, like a well-established general, with a line above him.

"No one is qualified to give up on our behalf!"

And below it is the title of Situ Yunbing most cited by the French media.

"Mysterious young man!"

The corner of Situ Yunbing's mouth is upturned. Although this huge screen is not as powerful as TIFO, it is enough to show the momentum of Monaco in this small stadium of Monaco!

Situ Yunbing walked to the command area of ​​the home team coach with his head held high. He has sat on the coach's bench for the past three games. Now he is back to a place he is familiar with.

It also makes Monaco fans feel excited!

With the sound of the theme song of the Champions League, the referee team led the starters of Monaco and Manchester United into the stadium.

The temperaments of the players of the two teams are obviously different. The generals of Monaco are a little too serious, but it is obvious that they are about to embark on a battle of life and death!

Manchester United generals are commonplace, perhaps because of years of rich experience, making them more able to deal with any challenge calmly.

The teams from both sides queue for the kick-off ceremony before the game.

"Good evening, friends and spectators, today we followed the camera to the Louis II Stadium of Monaco. Here is the second round of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final. Monaco will play Manchester United at home!

In the first leg of the game two weeks ago, Manchester United defeated Monaco 3:1 at home. Rooney scored twice and Fletcher made a contribution. Monaco retained their promotion with a header from Vertonghen at the end of the game. Hopefully, they return to home today to meet Manchester United’s challenge. If Monaco wants to eliminate Manchester United and advance to the Champions League semi-finals, then they must at least break Manchester United’s goal twice at home and guarantee not to lose the ball.

In the past two weeks, Monaco has given the main players sufficient rest time in the league. European media have different opinions on this. Some believe that Situ Yunbing is right to do so, and it can make Monaco better against Manchester United. Some people think that Situ Yunbing has given up the Champions League.

Manchester United fans must be reluctant to look back on the Red Devils' performance in the league over the past two weekends.

Manchester United was defeated by Chelsea at home and lost the top spot, and then was tied by Blackburn at the away game and Chelsea opened the points gap.

Manchester United’s road to defending this season seems to have encountered a major setback. There are still four league rounds in the Premier League. Whether Manchester United can reverse Chelsea and regain the top spot, I am afraid that Manchester United fans are more concerned.

Here is an introduction to the starting lineups of both sides.

Monaco changed the starting lineup today, Situ Yunbing lined up a 433 lineup.

Goalkeeper: De Gea.

Defenders: Modesto, Benatia, Virtonghen, Moreau.

Midfielder: Witsel, Perez, Matic.

Forwards: Falcao, Suarez, Gareth Bale.

Today Monaco should be full of firepower!

Compared with the last game and their two-round elimination of Real Madrid, Situ Yunbing not only strengthened the front line and Falcao, but also removed more defensive Nkulu in the midfield. It looks like Monaco. It is going to fight for life. I think this approach is still very wise. After all, if Monaco did not break the boat at home and put pressure on Manchester United from the first minute of the game, how could they have any hope of reversal?

Manchester United also adjusted the starting lineup today.

Goalkeeper: Van der Sar.

Defenders: Gary Neville, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra.

Midfielder: Valencia, Fletcher, Carrick, Scholes, Nani.

Forward: Rooney.

Valencia has entered the starting lineup, and the formation has also become 4231. It seems that Manchester United may mainly seize the opportunity to counterattack to try to score away goals!

Well, the kick-off ceremony before the game is over, the game will begin immediately! "

Situ Yunbing stood on the sidelines and waited for the start of the game. The visiting team coach's command area was still empty. Ferguson sat on the visiting team coach's bench, but there was a slight sadness between his eyebrows.

I don't know if it is the worry about this game or the pessimistic expectations of defending the league caused by Chelsea's reversal and widening the gap.

Situ Yunbing had no distractions, regardless of whether he came to the sidelines to direct the game, just be yourself!

With the referee's whistle, Monaco took the lead in teeing off.

In fact, Manchester United is not particularly good at defensive counterattacks. Their more traditional tactics put pressure on their opponents, so even if they look conservative today, they will not retreat to the forty yards in front of the goal. That is not Ferguson’s style. Just like last year’s Champions League final, Ferguson admitted after the game that if Manchester United played more conservatively, he would have a chance to win the trophy, but knowing that Barcelona has a strong pass and control, he still hopes to let the Red Devils go head-on. This is the style of Manchester United. Tradition.

Manchester United's frontcourt players entered Monaco's half-time pressure. It seems that Manchester United's state is not a big problem, but Monaco obviously passes the ball faster.

When Valencia grabbed Morro, the latter crossed the ball diagonally to the front midfield.

Suarez made a diagonal pass and sent the ball to the left before Fletcher made it.

After Gareth Bale stopped the ball and faced Gary Neville, Gareth Bale suddenly started the ball to pass!

His strength made Gary Neville an immediate foul. He blocked Gareth Bale, and the referee whistled to signal Gary Neville for a foul.

The football that had just rolled out of the baseline was immediately thrown by the side caddie to Gareth Bale, who pressed the ball in place and quickly moved inward!

The Manchester United generals were suddenly upset!

Because they saw Morrow and Virtonghen running fast from the side and center at the same time!

Does this scene seem familiar?

No, they clearly remember the last moment of the last round. It was almost the same. Gareth Bale was fouled, Morrow rushed forward, and Vertonghen moved forward in the middle.

This allowed the Manchester United defender to quickly retreat to the front area, and they wanted to avoid being attacked by Monaco by another unexpected free kick.

Vertonghen led the retreat of the Manchester United defender line, and the Manchester United midfielder went to stare at other attacking players, but there were still missing people in the panic!

Moreau rushed up this time but didn't drop the ball into the penalty area, but instead sent the ball to the center of the penalty area with a kick.

Falcao cut from the other side and didn't stop the ball and suddenly shot with his left foot!

The football is less than half a meter off the ground to fly straight to the bottom right corner of the goal!

Van der Sar is already powerless!

But at a critical moment, Evra, who made up for the goal post during defense, fell to the ground and stretched out his leg to intercept the ball to the limit. The football refraction flew to the left and flew out of the bottom line.

call!

All Monaco fans were still cheering, but they didn't expect Monaco's offensive threat to be presented so quickly!

Situ Yunbing was not disappointed. After applauding, he held his fingers behind the field and signaled Vertonghen to withdraw at any time.

Manchester United's defense became a bit messy after the first offensive after the opening of Monaco!

The ball was taken from the sideline, and Moro knocked the ball diagonally back under the harassment of Valencia.

Matic made an offensive transfer. Witsella quickly moved forward after receiving from the right. When Evra came in front of him, Witsel quickly passed the ball diagonally to Suarez who took the initiative to respond.

Suarez took the ball while forcibly wading the ball forward, Carrick stretched out his left leg to destroy the ball.

Seeing that Scholes wanted to control the ball, Perez, who rushed up from his side, shoveled the ball first, and sent the ball directly to Suarez's feet.

Suarez was still defended by Carrick, and Fletcher also came to help, but at this time, Suarez chose to take the ball and knock the ball horizontally. After the ball, he quickly turned and jumped in. Witsel was on the side. Lu slid the ball over.

Vidic was immediately embarrassed because Falcao made an inside cut!

Unable to hesitate, Suarez already squeezed the ball straight past him.

Falcao accelerated Nece Vidic and took the ball behind him. After touching the ball, he adjusted a step and kicked the shot. Ferdinand blocked in front of him and blocked the ball out of the baseline with his thigh.

"Wow! Monaco started like a tiger! Falcao was right today! His consecutive two shots have created the ultimate threat! If it weren't for Evra and Ferdinand, Manchester United might have fallen behind by two goals now! "

In the opening rhythm, it was obvious that Monaco suppressed Manchester United strongly. At this time, Manchester United was very embarrassed, but it was difficult to force the rhythm because they did not touch the ball much, and Monaco entered the state very quickly, especially their players' range of activities was significantly expanded. Now, the fight is fierce!

Ferguson looked solemn, he was surprised at Monaco's opening game!

If the outside world speculates about Monaco's play in this game, 99% is still defensive and counterattack, but Ferguson does not think so. He has referred to the two games where Monaco played Real Madrid. Monaco clearly belongs to the "species" team.

But he guessed that Monaco would play more patiently and delicately, but he didn't expect it would be so rough and tyrannical!

There seems to be no bright spot in the tactics, but just like the first half of the first round of Manchester United's crushing of Monaco, Monaco clearly almost overwhelmed Manchester United in rhythm after the start today!

In the 7th minute of the game, Scholes, who retreated to the penalty area, instigated a fast attack in the backcourt. When Nani on the left moved forward, the Monegasque generals retreated, but there was no player in the midfield to help defend the side. Instead, it formed Fletcher who followed the center, Park Ji-sung on the right, and Rooney on the front line to form a pincer, blocking Nani's ground pass to them.

When Nani was wading the ball while looking for a pass line, something unexpected happened.

Nani was suddenly robbed by himself, and he was caught off guard.

He was sure that Witsel, Perez, and Matic were all in the middle, but behind him, someone shot the ball easily when he was unprepared.

He stopped and looked back, only to realize that it was Falcao!

Falcao actively retreated to the key area of ​​his defense and won warm applause from the Monaco fans!

The players who followed Manchester United's midfield also stopped and turned back. Falcao sent the ball straight to the front midfield.

Witsel quickly moved forward to grab control of the ball before the retreating Fletcher and Carrick.

Facing Scholes's defense, Witsel wisely chose a diagonal pass to send the ball to the left of the penalty area.

Gareth Bale made a strong inside cut and went to the left rib of the penalty area!

Ferdinand hurriedly turned around and immediately put the tackle to try to clear the ball out of the baseline, but Gareth Bale had a good grasp of the dribbling rhythm of the ball into the penalty area this time, and he took the ball forward again!

Ferdinand shoveled nothing, but Gareth Bale hit the line before the football went out of bounds and knocked the ball to the penalty spot!

In this wave of cooperation, Suarez moved forward after the ball, which drove Vidic to mark him personally. When Suarez followed up to the small penalty area in front of the goal, Vidic could only follow because Gareth- After Bale passed Ferdinand, he has already played the ultimate offensive depth advantage!

But the penalty spot is empty!

Perhaps in that moment, Witsel moved forward, and Scholes returned to the defense and planned to release the shovel, but it was still slow!

Witsel hit the ball with a volley!

Clean and neat!

The football goes straight to the upper left corner of the goal!

Van der Sar didn’t make a save at all. He was going to block the near corner, but after Gareth Bale made a pass, he immediately turned back towards the center of the goal, but Witsel’s shot hit the upper left corner. , Which is equivalent to hitting an anti-cut line, how did Van der Sar have time to save? !

Witsel did not smile after the goal. Suarez rushed into the goal and picked up the ball and ran towards the midfield. When Witsel ran back to midfield, Perez hugged his head and kissed the head. , Witsel took a deep breath, the atmosphere was bursting, Monaco fans cheered ecstatically!

Situ Yunbing on the sidelines seemed indifferent to the goal, still in a dignified and cold posture. Suddenly, he noticed something out of the corner of his eye, turned his head to look, and Ferguson got up from the coach bench with a cold face.

Nearly 10 minutes from the first round to the start of the second round, he finally came to the coaching area on the sidelines.

Situ Yunbing retracted his gaze and didn't care.

Standing on the wall, strong without desire!

Regardless of the east, west, north and south winds, I stand still!
