Chapter 468 Return to the Champions League

The score of this game did not change much in the end, Monaco 2-0 lā

Although Xu Qi has not yet begun to contribute to the team, the strength this team has shown is already quite impressive.

Xu Qi has reason to believe that he can receive the honors during the lease period of this year.

He doesn't have to worry about the team's record at all now. It is certain that Monaco, which has such a strong lineup, will not have much problem qualifying from the Champions League group stage.

As long as I wait until winter, the enhanced version of Xu Qi, who once killed everyone, will be back!

By then, he will push the team's combat power to a whole new level.

However, during this period, Xu Qi's presence in the team is really low. Since players such as Falcao, JR, Carrasco, Moutinho continue to shine, Xu Qi is happy to see this relatively comfortable environment.

He needs time to complete the ghost feet, and the environment here is just right.

He did not bear the high transfer fee. Although fans were looking forward to his return to the top, they did not put too much pressure on him.

Of course, Ranieli has talked with Xu Qi many times. Ranieli can feel that Xu Qi is improving little by little, although he is also curious why Xu Qi is falling so much.

However, he is also very patient. Although he will not give Xu Qi too many opportunities to play, as long as the team locks in the victory, Ranieri will definitely choose to let Xu Qi come on the court to adapt to the game state.

Moreover, Xu Qi has always been diligent in the training ground, and the coaches like this kind of team.

In the first Champions League match, Monaco challenged Chelsea away. Facing the more mature Chelsea, Monaco lost 1-2 away.

In another game, Schalke 04 defeated Basel 3-0 at home.

This result also put a lot of pressure on Monaco, because Schalke 04 is a big enemy if he wants to qualify from the group.

In this way, Xu Qi recovered bit by bit, and the completion of the ghost feet was about to approach 90%.

Monaco also moved forward step by step in the league. As the league progressed, Paris Saint-Germain also began to chase points and finally returned to the top position.

Monaco followed closely behind, surpassing Marseille, Lyon, Bordeaux and other strong teams in second place.

In the Champions League, Monaco also found an opportunity to defeat Schalke 04 1-0 at home, ready to start chasing points.

...

In this environment, it was December again. In the last round of the Champions League group stage, Monaco played against Schalke 04 away. Now Monaco is leading Schalke 04 in the Champions League group stage one point, ranking second in the group, and Chelsea has already secured the first place in the group ahead of schedule.

At this time, the last round of group matches are about watching Monaco and Schalke 04's second-team competition.

Monaco needs to play away, lose and advance to the top 16 of the Champions League by winning or drawing.

In this game, Tiger Falcao was absent due to injury, which is also the biggest difficult situation Monaco has encountered at present.

In addition, Belgian Flying Wing Carrasco also hangs a high-level battle-free card due to injury.

After all, during the early stages of the season, Monaco's attack power relied heavily on the performance of Tiger Falcao.

In order to make up for Falcao's lack of attack power due to injury, Ranieri arranged a partner of two young forwards, Martial and Rivera, on the front line.

Goalkeeper Argentina's national goalkeeper Romero.

The defense line is Raji, Carvalho, Abidal and Kurzawa.

Midfielders Tularan, Moutinho, Condobia, and James Rodriguez.

Xu Qi sat on the bench, waiting for the opportunity to play.

Today, Xu Qi's ghost feet's completion rate has reached 95%, basically returning to the level of his previous peak period, and is very close to the achievement of ghost feet. However, the more he reaches the final stage, Xu Qi feels that the progress is becoming more and more difficult to advance.

95% is a threshold. After passing this threshold, Xu Qi can really announce that he can participate in high-level competitions.

During this period, in the Real Dream Training Camp, Xu Qi honed himself through Champions League level events more than once, and he felt that he could indeed participate in Champions League level competitions.

It seems that it will take another two months to complete it all.

But even so, Xu Qi can already become the main force of the team with a completion rate of 95%. However, he has just completed 95%, and he still needs to adapt slowly in all aspects.

This game was very fierce, after all, it was a focus battle related to the qualifying quota in the group.

At the Fertins Arena, the two teams acted in a stance of disgrace. Just thirteen minutes into the game, Moutinho helped Monaco to score the first record.

All forms seem to be starting to benefit Monaco. They took the lead when they could qualify for the draw, and this situation is naturally quite critical.

In a blink of an eye, Schalke 04 equalized the score with Draxler's goal.

The suspense of the game became confusing again.

In the second half, Schalke 04 team got another chance. With a chance to set the ball, Matip scored a header!

Schalke 04 reversed the score.

The situation for Monaco has become a crisis again.

Due to Carrasco and Falcao's injuries, Ranieri is almost no longer available, but the team's current offense is indeed somewhat unmatched.

Both Martial and Rivera went to Schalke 04's strict defense and defense and could not find any opportunity, and the team's core James Rodriguez is now highly restricted.

It seems that Monaco's offensive methods have been thoroughly understood by Schalke 04.

Just when Ranieli was a little anxious on the sidelines, Xu Qi stood up from the bench and walked to Ranieli.

"Mr. Claudio, I think it's time for me to contribute to the team. I scored a goal against Schalke 04 in the Champions League. At that time, their goalkeeper was Neuer, but Neuer still couldn't stop me!" Xu Qi said confidently.

Ranieli looked at Xu Qi with some surprise. This was the first time Xu Qi expressed his strong battle in front of him.

Before, no matter when Xu Qi sat on the bench, he seemed particularly quiet. It seemed that even if the team lost, it had nothing to do with him. However, when Xu Qi appeared, it really didn't work much.

But now, Xu Qi actually took the initiative to ask for the fight, which was indeed beyond Ranieri's expectations.

In Ranieri's opinion, Xu Qi has indeed performed better and better in the training field recently, but he will not be able to change the situation on the court immediately if he appears as a substitute.

But now Ranieri has no other choice. He looked at Xu Qi thoughtfully and nodded, "Warm up as soon as possible and prepare to appear!"

"I've been ready for a long time. I've been waiting for this day for a long time!" Xu Qi sneered coldly.

He is finally back now...
Chapter completed!
