Chapter 186: .186 Total restraint

Suarez's goal ignited the passion of the Louis II Stadium!
Everyone cheered, and perhaps only the Porto people would feel the biting chill in this bleak wind and cold rain.
"Suarez volleyed and scored! Monaco wins at home!
After the opening, Porto tried to threaten Monaco’s goal with a long pass, while Monaco adopted a defensive strategy of pressing in the center and front. This forced Belluschi to make a mistake in this attack and was interrupted by Matic. Matic instigated a counterattack and a fast attack. Suarez picked up a pass in front of the penalty area to the left side of the penalty area and formed a wonderful cooperation with Gareth Bale, then entered the penalty area to receive a header from Gareth Bale and make a volley. Depress the angle and send the ball into the net socket.
Monaco is really strong!
They not only suppressed Porto's offensive momentum, but also scored goals. Now it will be more difficult for Porto to face the game! "
Situ Yunbing didn't expect the goal to come so soon. After all, Porto still failed to come up with a tactical play that could subvert the situation. Of course, this is also related to the player's strength.
In the previous adjustments, Situ Yunbing allowed the full-backs to increase the attack range, and Nkulu's awareness of defending the sidelines was strengthened. At the same time, Perez was sitting in the middle and Matic was pressing forward. This way, Monaco can be extremely defensive The ground suppresses the opponent's side attack.
Nkulu will help to defend the side lanes at any time to add a layer of protection to avoid being attacked by opponents to form a breakthrough to attack the depth advantage.
The Porto generals were very depressed. The start of this must-win game was very unfavorable for them, but they had no other choice but to actively initiate the offensive after the re-start.
They were able to play some threatening offensives in the opening phase, but after losing the ball they found that the offense was once again set back.
Rodriguez or Beluski on the wing will be forced by Modesto and Moreau as long as they have the ball on the front side of the court. It is difficult for them to break through, so they can only seek a teammate in the middle. With the cooperation of Matic, it may be safer to send the ball directly to the feet of Hulk or Farias when Meireles is also pressed by Matic.
But this led to the failure of Porto's established tactics.
After Hulk and Farias succeeded in the front midfielder, they need to make a pass or make a breakthrough to create a shot.
Vertonghen and Benatia, together with Nkulu trio, have effectively contained the two of them. If the side is in a hurry, Nkuru will help defend the side while Perez retreats to the middle to continue to form The iron triangle system of backcourt defense.
Situ Yunbing calmly watched the game trend from the sidelines, Monaco strangled Porto’s offensive in an orderly manner, and then launched a counterattack in an orderly manner.
Porto has relatively strong tactical discipline. Unlike Bordeaux, they do have strong defensive strength in the midfield. As long as Fernando and Meireles retreat to the front of the penalty area when Monaco counterattacks, Monaco is also difficult to make. Threats from long shots, and today they are based on defense and then consider offensive thinking is not a big problem, which makes Monaco's counterattack if the opponents exposed obvious flaws or players extraordinary performance, I am afraid it is difficult to create a threat.
Gareth Bale, Falcao, Suarez, including Matic, have all tried long shots and failed to produce a fatal blow. The long shot opportunities are mainly reluctant, and there is not much room for adjustment. There is no threat to the distance of the range. Porto’s defense is stronger than Bordeaux, which is beyond doubt.
Fortunately, it is difficult for Porto to create a threatening offensive, and the game situation is relatively stale.
Ferreira had a headache on the sidelines. His pre-match technical and tactical play only worked less than 15 minutes before being easily resolved by Monaco. Now the scene is deadlocked. Monaco itself also pays attention to defense and hopes that this game will at least guarantee no loss. The strategic purpose of the company is extremely clear.
Porto wants to reverse the situation and is not optimistic.
At the end of the first half of the game, Porto tried to speed up the pace and played a continuous offensive, but the threat of a counterattack in Monaco and Gareth Bale almost broke the goal in the penalty area died down.
It is regrettable that Gareth Bale's shot hit the side net.
During the intermission, Situ Yunbing ordered the team to further strengthen the defense in the second half, and the striker position also slightly retracted. If the opponent's back line does not press forward, then Monaco can take possession of the ball in the midfield to kill the opponent.
In the second half, the two sides changed sides and then fought again. Porto took the lead in making a substitution. Brazilian defender Roque replaced Sapunaru. This substitution made Situ Yunbing a little confused about the opponent's intentions.
In the first half of the game, Sapnaru made no obvious mistakes, replacing a right back with someone who can play right back and center back. Is Porto going to change?
really!
Porto changed 343 in the second half!
Left midfielder Rodriguez moved to the left wing position, left back Perea position premise, the back line Rock, Alves, Rolando three tightened the inside.
Then Porto’s style of play is even simpler and more rude, directly slamming, and directly rushing forward from the backcourt. Perea and Beluski do not push forward on the two wing sides, and they will play for three if they have a chance. Striker.
The opponent's style of play has the opportunity to bring chaos to the Monaco defense, but it is still impossible to directly penetrate the defense.
In the 59th minute of the game, Monaco launched a fast attack on the left. Gareth Bale waded the ball directly along the wing to drive the offensive depth advantage. Roque did not follow the defense, but waited for Gareth at the penalty zone line. -Bell crosses over.
At this time, Gareth Bale chose to knock the ball back diagonally to Matic, who came in.
After the wing defense declined, even if there were two midfielders defending in the front area of ​​the Porto penalty area, the expansion of the wing space gave the Monaco midfielder space to respond after a forward insertion. At the same time, the success rate of small cooperation was also higher. high.
When Matic made a kick and shot, Meireles stepped forward and forced the ball. He then passed the ball shortly to Gareth Bale who crossed the penalty area. Gareth Bale, who was ahead of Rock in speed, was ahead of the opponent. He stretched his leg to touch the ball and moved forward in the middle, but he didn't expect that the opponent stretched his leg and fell to the ground as soon as he hit the ball.
The referee's whistle sounded, and Rock clasped his head incredulously, and then explained to the referee with a slight excitement that he had not committed a foul.
But through the slow-motion playback, it is clear that his stretched leg touched Gareth Bale's calf.
This penalty is not controversial.
Gareth Bale was pulled up by Suarez, and the generals of Monaco ran up to praise Bale's performance.
The Monaco fans in the stands of the Louis II Stadium were looking forward to it, and Suarez stood in front of the penalty spot and prepared to run.
After the referee blew the whistle, Suarez pushed the ball into the lower right corner of the goal and successfully scored the ball.
Monaco leads Porto 2:0 at home!
Ferreira looked helpless. After all, Porto is not a very creative and fast team. Facing Monaco, this powerful defense with a sharp knife is somewhat restrained!
Now they are already holding the edge of the cliff with one hand, and they may fall into the abyss at any time!
Porto can only strengthen the offensive. At this time, Situ Yunbing chose to make substitutions.
Falcao didn’t show much today. Monaco’s offensive creativity was insufficient when the opponent’s back line was delayed, but the current score was safe enough. Situ Yunbing wanted to contain his opponent’s offensive rather than Take advantage of the trend and score more goals for the opponent.
Witsel came off the bench to replace Falcao in the 65th minute of the game.
Monaco strengthened the defense on the right, forcing Porto to attack only from the side of Beluski, but because Gareth Bale is always the most propelling point for Monaco's counterattack threat, Porto dare not be too aggressive in attacking on this side. .
On the sidelines, Situ Yunbing looked indifferent, unmoved by the stalemate of the situation. Monaco's offensive threat is now slightly reduced, while Porto is directly immobilized in the backcourt!
It may not be appropriate to use total suppression, but total restraint is in line with the current situation.
Hulk ran inactively in the frontcourt, and the ball flying from the backcourt had a long flight time due to the long distance. This gave the Monaco defenders time to adjust, even if Hulk could grab the goal. But it is also difficult to hold the ball underfoot, and it becomes impractical to want to make the ball for Farias.
The number of shots of both teams is dropping rapidly, and neither team has made a shot for as long as 10 minutes. The football is flying around in the sky. Monaco is relatively cautious. He has no chance to control the ball and consume the opponent. Sometimes he wants to try a kick. Long-range shots are not necessarily successful, it doesn't matter.
Monaco can definitely afford it now.
Maybe the neutral fans will feel that the game has entered garbage time, but the Monaco fans sang loudly in the rain.
Sometimes the game is like this, not every minute or every game will be brilliant, when the stakes are at stake, like Monaco and Porto are not proud.
When the game came to 80 minutes, Situ Yunbing made another substitution, Adriano came on the field to replace Matic, Witsel moved to the middle, Monaco's tactical play changed, and he retreated to defend against counterattacks!
The counterattack only hit two wings.
Ferreira in Porto is quite envious of Situ Yunbing, at least there are people in Monaco to change, Porto can only get a main lineup at best.
Guarin replaced Farias on the field. Porto tried to enhance the midfield propulsion ability, but the effect was not good.
In the last 10 minutes of the game, Monaco's performance did not drop in the slightest, repeatedly disrupting the opponent's offensive. Porto also resisted Monaco's two threatening counterattacks, but they failed to score.
The final game ended with 2:0!
When the final whistle sounded, the Monegasques raised their arms and roared to the sky!
Situ Yunbing, who commanded the game to maintain a serious attitude, also showed a sunny smile.
Monaco should have won the top 16 tickets, unless Chelsea lost to Atletico Madrid in the away game.
