Chapter 209 Jack and Rooney 1

As everyone imagined, after the substitution, Monaco launched the most violent attack since the opening. The result was that Don Jack was almost undefended in the backcourt, but Deschamps had already kept an eye on the defenders to pay more anti-offside to Liverpool's counterattack.

So, Jack Don, who had nothing to do, had to retreat to his half-time in order not to go offside when counterattacking, because Monaco's guard line was getting closer and closer.

Obviously, the attack in the front court is extremely fierce!

In the front court, due to the pressure on the whole line, Monaco's attack was very fierce, and the Liverpool players were very nervous and constantly coping with it. Such a defense was very stable just now, but now with the strengthening of the attack, Liverpool's defense suddenly has a feeling of being overstretched.

In the forty-first minute, Adebayo passed back to Caron at the front of the penalty area, who had just inserted left-back Squilaki. Squilaki received the ball and inserted the ball directly into the penalty area. When he reached the bottom line, he pulled the ball back and hung the ball to the front of the goal. Adebayo and Caron rushed forward to earn points.

Gerrard guarded Adbayor, but the latter still tried his best to touch the ball before Gerrard. Unfortunately, he only clicked the ball with his toes and was kicked out by goalkeeper Dudeck.

Garcia, standing on the periphery of Liverpool's penalty area, grabbed the ball, but in this position, he was already the world of Monaco's backcourt players. Under the forced grab, Garcia's unstable ball was directly broken.

Next is another round of Monaco's attack.

After receiving the ball, central forward Perez made a three-game pass and receiving cooperation with his teammate McCon, and then immediately knocked back to the following Qicos. Zicos dribbled the ball past Harvey. Alonso, with his toes, pushed the ball to Perez again. This time, Perez did not pass the ball. He dunked the ball in a small range from the penalty area line, shook off Gerrard's grab and directly got up and hit the door!

The football is higher and the beam flies out of the bottom line.

The ball didn't score again...

But all the Liverpool fans were a little frightened. From the 40th minute, Monaco's attack was simply one after another. Liverpool shrank in the penalty area and had no power to counterattack at all, and Don Jack stood near the center line and felt very depressed. He had no chance to catch the ball at all.

Monaco seems to be dangerous, but the attack is the best defense. Let them fight like this, they really find a little feeling of scoring and find a great advantage.

Deschamps is still satisfied with the current state, but the advantage of three goals is like a mountain on his heart. Deschamps knows that even if he plays well in the attack now, it is nothing, because the team is three people behind. In the rest of the time, they must score a goal before they have a chance in the second half.

At this time, he could only pray to God.

Unfortunately, God seems to be taking a nap now. At the end of the first half, Monaco played a few waves of powerful attacks and created a very classic pass and catch cooperation, but such a smooth attack was still too impatient to shoot.

In the end, the Liverpool players walked into the player channel without pressure with the advantage of three goals. There was even a trace of despair in the eyes of the Monaco players behind them.

Three goals can be regarded as an insurmountable gap on the football field, especially when Monaco's strength is still at a great disadvantage. This ditch is deeper and can't even be seen at a glance.

※※※

In such a situation, Liverpool players did not have any pressure at halftime. They talked and laughed in the locker room to discuss the game, and Don Jack, who scored two goals, was constantly teased by a group of jealous teammates.

This situation is really depressing, but Don Jack has to let these bad teammates vent. Otherwise, many of them will be eager for Don Jack's treat! Score two goals and invite the whole team to dinner. Those goal bonuses are enough for a week.

Unfortunately, Don Jack's mouth is hard!

No matter what his teammates say, he just ignores that he hasn't heard it. As an 'experienced person', he will not be hit by such a simple trap. Only others can do this kind of treat. Let Don Jack treat you to dinner? How can it be!

Jack Don's favorite thing is to treat others, and he just eats.

Described by Gerard's words: "This guy would rather lose face than lose his wallet. If a beggar asks him for money, he may say, 'I'm also a beggar'." This cold joke is very funny to the English, but it's a pity that it still can't touch Don Jack's heart. His heart is as strong as a rock, and no matter what people say, he stands still.

This is not a little man of Jack Tang. When he spent money on Li Xue, he almost didn't count the numbers. In the face of many teammates who were higher than his salary, he immediately didn't want to treat him. What's more, now he has bet more than 1 million pounds on the Champions Cup championship for his sister, and he added his salary card all over his body. There are only tens of thousands of pounds left, and it is even more impossible for him to treat.

"I'm still waiting for the salary to be paid next month..." Don Jack's heart is sad! Unlike the atmosphere of the home team's locker room, the Monaco team is more sad in the visiting team's locker room. Their mind is the sea needle, the head coach Didier. Deschamps cheered up the players over and over again and told them, 'We still have hope'.

"Just like playing at the end of the first half, we still have hope that as long as we recover a goal at the beginning, we can move back to the situation, and then we may win..." Deschamp himself didn't have much confidence in this sentence. What if you move back to one, but there are still two left! Two goals are not casual. This is the number of goals in the last game on the football field.

Thinking about Liverpool's performance of the brunette boy in the first half, Deschamps feels that if Monaco has two players like that, it is still possible to move back to the score... Now?

It depends!

However, the Monaco players believe that they have reached the point where they don't believe it. If they want to win, they have to believe in Deschamps.

God said, "I believe in eternal life."

Many people don't believe in God all their lives. Maybe they believe it at the moment of death. Now the Monaco team players have this mentality. They believe that Deschamps is the last life-saving straw. They can only choose to catch it, otherwise they will directly admit defeat. No one will be willing to lose, even if they are sure to lose the game. .

Now, they are ready to fight to the death.

Unfortunately, the opponent is Liverpool. More importantly, Liverpool also has a utilitarian football coach. In general, in order to win, Benitez can give any possible instructions to the team, instead of attacking according to the fans. This is utilitarian football, and anything is possible for victory.

What's more, now that Liverpool is leading 3-1, Benitez will certainly not make mistakes to let Monaco seize the opportunity.

At halftime, the tactic he assigned to the players was to defend.

"Our task is to defend, and as for the attack... Just leave it to Jack!" At this moment, Don Jack was very moved and stressed. What would it feel like when a head coach told you that the offensive burden of the whole team was on you?

Pressure...

However, in addition to being moved, Jack Don also has a feeling of being speechless to Benitez... At least the coach of Schalke 04, Heinx, can't do such a thing. You know, this is at Anfield. The world's famous tactical masters actually asked the players to give up the attack in the first 20 minutes.

Of course, it's not to give up. Don Jack is the burden of attack.

Konima...!!? What's the difference between this and giving up?

But if you don't accept it, you have to accept it. Who let Benitez be the head coach of Liverpool, and Don Jack is just a player? Therefore, after the beginning of the second half, Liverpool fans saw the defensive Liverpool, but it is difficult to affect the good mood of Liverpool fans, because now Liverpool are leading 3-1!

And what about Monaco?

Their players are very helpless. The head coach Deschamps is about to burst into tears. Deschamps feels that it is a tragedy for Monaco to meet Liverpool. The other Spaniard on the other side has no demeanor at all. He admires his tactical ability. As for the current situation, he does not admire it. He can only say that... . Helpless.

Yes, it's helpless.

In the face of a rich team huddled in the penalty area, how many teams will be helpless?

Monaco is just an ordinary Ligue 1 team. Even in France, they are not rich. They do not have the background of the rich, let alone the strength of the rich. Then their attack wants to break the defense of the strong goal, relying on not only strength, but also more luck.

But Monaco is not very lucky.

The result was that in the first 20 minutes of the game, Monaco's attack was in full swing, but unfortunately it didn't bring them a goal. The result was really desperate.

During this period, Don Jack became a free man in the audience... Yes, the whole game is a free man. The game doesn't seem to have anything to do with him. He is Liverpool's 'disgusting' person in the Monaco half. It can be said that there is a Don Jack in the Monaco half. At least Monaco's defenders dare not attack too far forward, which plays a role in making more or less for Liverpool. There is some defensive pressure.

That's all.

In addition to this, Don Jack became a free man in the whole court. In 20 minutes, he touched the ball three times, of which two feet were passes and one was a penalty outside the ball... Poor data.

Then, in the twenty-first minute of the second half, Benitez decisively replaced Don Jack with young player Pangler, allowing the Liverpool hero who scored two goals and one assist to accept the cheers of the Liverpool fans, which was a glorious end.

Unfortunately, Jack Don's words did not match the environment at all: "I'm finally relieved..." He was relieved and didn't have to stand on the field as a stake.

There are still 20 minutes left in the game, and Monaco is still three goals behind. At this time, the game has nothing to do with Don Jack. He easily sat on the bench and chatted with his teammates, waiting for the game to be over.

In this kind of waiting, time passed quickly. In a blink of an eye, the whole game had reached the last minute. At this time, the score was still 3-0. In the later game, although Liverpool had a little offensive, because Cise and Pangler missed a very good shooting opportunity respectively, Liverpool failed. Goal.

At the last minute, Monaco regained a little face. Their top scorer Adebayor took advantage of a small pass in the penalty area to find the opportunity, and also shook the goalkeeper Dudek and shot the ball into the net.

The final score was fixed at 3:1. In the first game of the Champions League group stage, Liverpool easily defeated Monaco at home, but the focus of this game was not on the score, but on the tactical confrontation between the two coaches.

In this confrontation, Benitez won completely!

The Spaniard accurately grasped the time and adjusted the tactics, which directly allowed Liverpool to score two shots in a very short time and directly locked the result of the game. However, the most dazzling player in the game is still Jack Don. The magical performance of two shots and one pass makes him, who only plays half-time, the best player in the game.

"You will probably also be the best player in this round." After the game, Gerrard said to Don Jack.

This selection is available in the influential French Football newspaper in Europe. They will select the best player and the best lineup in each round of the Champions League. In this round, Don Jack passes and shoots. It is not difficult to get the best player, as long as no other player performs better than him.

However, after the end of the game, Don Jack was immediately forgotten by these 'new and hate the old' English media, because in another Champions League group match at the same time, Manchester United introduced new star Wayne from Everton. Rooney came on as a substitute and had a subtle performance of one pass and one shot.

With such a performance, Rooney helped Manchester United draw with Lyon in the away game.
