040 Where is the explosion point?(1/2)

Marseille, Verodrome Stadium.

The away game of Monaco challenge to Marseille made fans anxious.

Neutral fans in front of the TV are even more distressed.

I wish I could curse: Don’t pretend to be a grandson and set up a bus, hurry up and attack out!

If you don’t shoot twice, you will really change the channel!

The most tense scene in the first 30 minutes of the game was Falcao's collision with Marseille defense leader Diavala while passing by James Rodriguez.

As a result, Diavala left the field due to injury!

Marseille coach Eri Bop's face was gloomy. It was definitely a bad signal that the mainstay of the defense line was injured and retreated.

Lucas Mendes came on as a substitute to replace Diavala, who had retreated from injury.

Monaco did not change his game posture due to injury to his opponent's back line general.

That was a complete accident and did not seem to have much impact on the game.

At least it is not obvious how big the problem is. After all, it is not easy for James Rodriguez to get rid of two defensive midfielders in Marseille to give a wonderful pass.

When the game was approaching the end of the first half, Marseille seemed to want to seize the last offensive opportunity. The left defender Mendy strode to the frontcourt to restrain Ocampos and sent a straight pass.

Ayu led the ball on the wing and quickly cut inside. The speed caught Kurzawa off guard. In desperation, Kurzawa chose to foul and knocked him to the ground.

The referee called Kurzawa for a foul, and Marseille won a direct free kick opportunity on the left outside the penalty area in the frontcourt.

Valbuena ran to take the free kick, and Ye Yifeng went to stand and put a wall to block the opponent's shooting angle.

After the instructions of Croatian national sub-basic, Ye Yifeng and his teammates stood in a good position, tightened their muscles to protect the vital parts of their lower body, and made aware that they might be hit by football at any time.

The moment Valbuena kicked the ball out, Ye Yifeng immediately jumped, but the opponent's shot was obviously higher than the top of their heads.

This is a cross!

Not a shot!

If it's a shot, it's definitely going to be high.

After Ye Yifeng landed, he immediately turned around and saw Lucas Mendes, who came on as a substitute on Marseille, headed the ball in front of the back of the penalty area!

Monaco's defense line is completely missing!

Mendes rushed to the top and directly sent the ball into the back point of the goal, and Subasic had no time to make a save block.

The Verodrome Stadium was thunderous.

Marseille fans were excited to cheer for Mendes's goal.

Four consecutive victories are on the way!

Head coach Eri Bop showed surprise.

Diavala retreated with injury, and Lucas Mendes made a passive substitution. It turned out to be a blessing or a disaster!

The Monaco generals looked solemn.

Ranieri frowned slightly but did not change his expression too much.

This Italian coach has always given people a very calm aura on the sidelines.

At the end of the first half, the players on the Monaco bench were ready to move.

The score is behind, it's time to adjust the attack?

Obviously they underestimated Ranieri's patience, and Monaco did not make any substitutions during the halftime break.

Ranieri's only adjustment in the offense requires Moutinho to add and insert the threat.

If you rashly ask the wing to strengthen the offensive, you may be broken through the wing defense one after another by Valbuena and Ayu!

Under this deadlock, Monaco can only adjust the range of midfield!

As long as Condobia can stop Paye, Moutinho stepped forward to support Jamet Rodriguez, combined with the support from the wing, may not be a wonderful move to break the situation.

Returning to the second half, the two teams changed sides and fought again.

Ye Yifeng shuttled up and down the left side. In fact, his role in the wing road today is more in line with the positioning of the wing forward. The defense must be in place and the offense needs to be supported. The coaching staff did not require them to threaten to cut in.

Marseille focused on counterattacks in the second half, but the fast attacks on the wing were not effective.

Valbuena had a headache.

Whether he was supporting or dribbled in the side, as long as he slowed down in front of Abidal, he would inevitably be touched by Ye Yifeng from behind.

Either Ye Yifeng stabbed the ball from the back, or he made a change in the ball control and completed the escape the next second he was robbed by the experienced Abidal!

Once he cuts inward, Abidal will decisively enter the inside and rob. If he returns to the wing, he will find that Ye Yifeng has retreated to a position almost as close as a full-back and stare at him!

In the first half, Marseille won a free kick opportunity on the left and relied on the fullback to insert it, breaking the dilemma of the forward winger.

After leading the score, the Marseille team's sideback only provided limited support in the second half, rarely hitting the dangerous areas of the frontcourt offense, and more on defense.

Although Monaco's second-half offensive seemed to put pressure on Marseille in the frontcourt, Marseille's Romao and Inbra swept in the middle of the backcourt and cooperated with the joint defense also allowed the back line to take the lead in defense!

Monaco's offensive threat ball delivery and opportunity creation always feels a little bit short!

But in fact, the little bit of bad is not something that can be changed by a little bit of luck!

The tactical design and coaching style of Eri Bop and Ranieri set up the formation of troops, which made the two teams stalemate from beginning to end.

After 70 minutes of the game, Eri Bop used up his second substitution.

Xielu replaced Payer and strengthened the midfield defense.

In Bup's eyes, as long as the threat inserted after Moutinho is suppressed, then Monaco's overall offensive will not be at all threatened!

Monaco still has no substitution.

Even the two assistants showed anxiety on their faces.

After the substitution, the Marseille team did contain Moutinho's offensive threat, but at the same time it also made the Marseille team's offense lose the threat of breaking in the middle.

Xie Lu organized the offensive in the backcourt and passed the ball to the wing, but because he did not break into the frontcourt like Paye did, this liberated Monaco's midfielder Condobia!

Ranieri keenly noticed this and then made a gesture on the sidelines to make the team strengthen the wing attack!

It’s time for Ye Yifeng and Ocampos to work!

You can remove their defensive tasks and create threats on the frontcourt side as much as possible.

Because no matter which side road the Marseille team plays, Condobia can help defend the side road without worries!

In order to increase the threat of attacking on the flank, Ranieri is also considering substitutions.

Who can be replaced?

Martial?

Ranieri could even predict that Martial would probably have several seemingly threatening breakthroughs after he played, but he ended up failing!

Marseille's defense can be regarded as the top level in Ligue 1, so how could a child under 18 years old be allowed to make a mistake!

That will only cost Monaco many offensive opportunities.

Carrasco?

How much more threats can it be compared to Ye Yifeng and Ocampos?

Ranieri couldn't help it.

Instead of changing the wing, it is better to fight for the last time and then hit the center.

Perhaps in the eyes of the audience, the game lacks exciting scenes.

However, French football critics in the media table think that the two teams are playing like chess, and they are not far-sighted, but they are definitely making fine adjustments based on changes in the situation on the field.

The Marseille team began to slow down the pace and the formation contracted to the backcourt.

They wanted to fight back comfortably, but their counterattacks on the flank were either strangled by Monaco on the backcourt, or the last pass failed to create a threat.

Monaco's wing attack tried more to cross to see if Falcao could pose a threat in the penalty area.

Ye Yifeng and Ocampos were both well-precedented, and Falcao was also submerged in the tight defense of the Marseille team.

When the game was 77 minutes later, Ye Yifeng had just returned to the backcourt and saw Condobia assisting the defense on the side force Valbuena to send a cross.

Carvalho headed the ball steadily in the penalty area, and Moutinho retreated from the middle to complete the ball control in the backcourt.

Ye Yifeng turned around and started running towards the frontcourt.

At this time, consciousness fell into darkness.

The tight defense of the Marseille team made Ye Yifeng feel unprecedented pressure.

He didn't know what he should do to help the team turn the tables!

From the perspective of strength, Jamet Rodriguez and Falcao both struggled today, and their opponents' ability was completely suppressed under the tight defense line!

First of all, there is no room, and secondly, the offensive and defensive confrontation within a small range is indeed hit by the trough due to the opponent's strong defensive ability!

The card disappears after the light flashes.
