Chapter four hundred and eighty seventh battle bumblebee
For the broadcast of this highly anticipated Champions League quarterfinals, tv has promoted щww{][lā}
Now, the game finally officially started at 3:45 am on April 2, Beijing time.
Monaco, wearing red and white jerseys, attacked from left to right, while the yellow and black Hornets Dortmund attacked from right to left.
"Okay, with the referee's whistle, the game began. Hello, everyone, this is..." The unchanging opening remark ended, and commentator He Wei also began to introduce the starting list of both sides.
"First of all, the starting situation of the home team Monaco is like this. Goalkeeper Subacic, and the defense are Fabinho, Carvalho, Abidal, Raji. The midfielders are Tularang, Condobia, Moutinho, J Ronaldo and Xu Qi, and the one at the forefront is Tiger Falcao. Falcao's performance in La Liga last season was also impressive. His goals were second only to Ronaldo and Messi, just like Xu Qi in Valencia before." After talking about the starting lineup of Monaco, He Wei also expressed his missing of Xu Qi in Valencia.
Because CCTV owns the copyright of La Liga, but does not have the rights to broadcast the Premier League and Ligue 1, now they can only broadcast the game owned by the opportunity to broadcast the Champions League events.
"Let's talk about the starting situation of the visiting Dortmund team. The goalkeeper is Weidenfeller, and the defense is Piszczek, Hummels, Subotic, Schmelze. The midfielder is Kirch, Gundoan and Mkhitaryan, while Reus and Groskreuz are on both sides. Lewandowski is at the forefront."
On the bench of Dortmund, many powerful players such as Shahin and Aubameyang are waiting for the opportunity to play.
Compared with the two teams, the lineup is quite good. After all, this is a contest between the two teams in the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
After the game started, the two teams immediately began to entangle in the midfield. Mkhitaryan immediately got a chance, but his subsequent dribbling turned around was immediately overturned by Tulalang who followed him.
The referee gave Dortmund a set piece in the frontcourt.
However, Dortmund's set-piece offense was not successful this time, but instead gave Monaco a chance to counterattack quickly. Xu Qi used his speed to throw away Pisczek and passed the ball to the middle. Unfortunately, Hummels cleared the ball before Falcao found the landing point.
A few minutes later, Xu Qi dribbled the ball again on the left and advanced at a high speed, taking a long shot from twenty meters away from the goal.
The ball passed by the ground before flying to the goal, which caught Weidenfeller, who was a little off guard, had to lift the ball out of the baseline in order to be on the safe side and gave Monaco a chance to have a corner kick.
It’s a pity that this corner kick still did not threaten Dortmund’s goal.
During the opening period, Monaco used the advantage of home games to launch a small wave of offensive waves. Threatening offenses basically came from Xu Qi's side, but they did not break through Dortmund's goal in several opportunities.
Immediately afterwards, Dortmund also launched a wave of offensives, and Monaco's defense also felt great pressure for a while.
The game revealed tension from the beginning, and the offensive between the two sides was dazzling.
"From this situation, this game seems to be a very open game, and the goal should come soon." Unfortunately, after He Wei finished this sentence, he seemed to have completed a God's prophecy immediately, which really made him hit it.
This is the ninth minute of the game.
Monaco once again pushed the ball near Dortmund's penalty area.
It seems that a fast break by Monaco formed a positional battle that was not very threatening due to delays, and it was precisely because of this positional battle that the Dortmund's defense line was torn open.
At that time, Xu Qi also ran to the right to participate in the offense with J Ronaldo. He controlled the ball and turned around to get rid of Gundoan who wanted to come and grab his ball. Then Xu Qi passed the ball to Falcao in the middle.
After Falcao took the ball with his back, he knocked the ball back and quickly stepped forward to Xu Qi. However, Xu Qi did not stop the ball, but instead gently pushed the ball into Dortmund's penalty area.
The one who counterattacked this time was J Ronaldo, who was in good shape in the league.
During the period, he successfully counterattacked. After receiving Xu Qi's pass, he faced Weidenfeller alone, and gently pushed the ball into the blind spot of the far post with a light push.
One to zero, Monaco scored nine minutes into the game!
J Luo scored a goal and Xu Qi assisted! The trident in the frontcourt formed a perfect cooperation.
At this time, Ranieri cheered on the sidelines, and Klopp on the other side was speechless.
Looking at Xu Qi who was celebrating with the whole team, Klopp felt like he was slapped in the face. He just said before the game that Xu Qi would not pass the ball, and he was the only one who played team football. As a result, Xu Qi immediately sent a scalpel-like straight pass to open up the offensive situation for the team.
Dortmund is now at a disadvantage.
The game continues, and now Dortmund will not consider anything else. They must attack now. Obtaining a away goal will give them a considerable advantage.
Therefore, Klopp also began to direct his disciples on the sidelines, hoping that they could complete the goal as soon as possible to give the team an advantage.
It has to be said that Dortmund's offensive fluency is indeed very high, and a super striker like Lewandowski is also very powerful.
In fact, Monaco wanted to sign Lewandowski in the summer, but Lewandowski said at that time that he wanted to go to Bayern and was not interested in Monaco.
However, Dortmund, who had no choice but to let Gotze go to Bayern, naturally was unwilling to let his main forward player leave the team, so they forced themselves to leave the team.
Subsequently, Dortmund got a corner kick opportunity, and the corner kick was passed into the penalty area. The ball was pushed by Hummels, but under the interference of Abidal, Hummels pushed the ball slightly higher, allowing Monaco to escape.
The game rhythm of the two teams has also maintained a fast offensive and defensive transition.
This is also something Ranieri is a little worried about.
Because this is the most suitable rhythm for Dortmund, Dortmund is too adapted to this game rhythm, and their team is younger. On the contrary, the two veterans on the Monaco defense line may find it difficult to maintain the whole game in such a fast-paced confrontation.
Considering that the team has taken the lead now, Ranieri has also begun to show his on-the-spot command level, immediately let the team take the initiative to retract defense and run as little as possible. Now they are the leading side and a good time to play defensive counterattacks.
Ranieri's command quickly made the players understand. They had studied Dortmund's offensive methods before. In fact, this team's offense also requires a lot of space to cooperate and score. Once they return to the defense and compress the space, it will be difficult for them to make a very smooth attack.
Chapter completed!
