The green devil

For the Spaniard, one to zero is a very good score, even better than 3 to 1.

The Spaniard can accept such a result, but the Monaco cannot.

In Monaco's plan, at the El Prat Stadium, they want to score a point, or at worst an away goal.

To end an away trip with a score like this and return to the Stade Louis II, the pressure will be too great.

Short-pass penetration did not penetrate, and Monaco did not continue to play single-mindedly. They immediately changed their thinking and began to try long-range shots, side crosses and high-altitude bombing.

In the 61st minute of the game, Lemar hit the Spanish defender Duterte with a long shot and popped out of the bottom line.

The Monaco gets a corner.

Set-pieces are the best way to attack when you can't break the goal in a mobile attack.

Lemar takes the free kick.

After a short run-up, Lemar accurately hoisted a curve ball to the penalty area.

In the penalty area, Monaco central defender Glick shook his head and attacked the goal.

Glick is more than 1.9 meters tall, and no one in the Espanyol team stopped him from competing for the header.

The ball was fast, but the angle was a little off. The ball hit the outside of the post and flew out of the baseline.

At this moment, there was a burst of exclamation from the stands.

The heart of the Espanyol fans who raised their throats was relieved.

Glick's header was the closest the Monaco came to a goal other than the penalty.

This header also strengthened the Monaco's determination to bomb the Espanyol from high altitude.

In the following time, the Monaco continued to threaten the Spaniard's goal through crosses and long shots from the wing.

This kind of attack is simple and rude, lacks technical content, and does not have much ornamental value, but the effect is good.

In just a few minutes, Monaco won several corner kicks.

The Monaco players also wanted to threaten the Spaniard's goal with a header from centre-back Glick.

But the Espanyol team responded quickly. After being hit by Glick at the goal post, when Glick went to his penalty area to participate in the attack, the Espanyol team immediately sent two people to mark him.

One person gets stuck in front of Glick, and the other grabs the chance to head the ball with Glick.

Although Glick did not have a chance to shoot, he attracted the attention of the Spaniard's defense and created opportunities for his teammates to score.

In the 70th minute of the game, Monaco made a long pass from the backcourt, and Silva gave the high-altitude ball chest to teammate Gilman.

Gilman's thigh twitched, and the back of his foot lightly pointed behind the Spaniard's defender.

Silva understood, advanced at high speed, and went straight to the Spaniard's penalty area.

Before the Spaniard's defender could turn around, Silva passed.

If Silva gets the ball, it will be a chance to go to the meeting alone.

At this critical moment, a figure rushed out of the penalty area and kicked the ball before Silva.

It turned out that when Gilman picked a pass, the Spaniard goalkeeper Lopez felt the danger based on experience, and he quickly rushed out of the penalty area to resolve the danger.

The defenders breathed a sigh of relief, admiring and grateful to Lopez, they all came over, hugged Lopez, and praised him for his decisive attack this time.

The Spaniard coach Sergio is in a great mood. Among the three lines of the Spaniard, the strongest is the striker, the midfielder and defender are barely enough, and the weakest is the goalkeeper.

Otherwise, Lopez would not be introduced.

However, the introduction of Lopez also took some risks. After all, Lopez is not young, and his state is unknown.

Judging from the performance of this game so far, Lopez still has a lot of fuel in his fuel tank, even if he is not a top goalkeeper, he is still first-class.

A good goalkeeper is equivalent to half a team. With Lopez, Sergio has greater confidence in the team's entry into the Champions League and even its performance in the Champions League.

Lopez's save also brought great confidence to his teammates. After Monaco sent the ball out of bounds, defender Alvarez intercepted the ball and quickly dribbled the ball along the sideline all the way to the side of the penalty area, completing the pass. middle.

The pass was a bit high, Zhao Yang and Caicedo, who were in the penalty area, failed to grab the spot, and the ball was pushed out of the penalty area by Monaco defender Glick.

The Spaniard's counterattack was very firm, and most players overwhelmed halftime.

The ball was taken by Espanyol midfielder Piatti.

Piatti saw the players from Monaco and Espanyol running in his direction, but no one paid attention to Zhao Yang, so he immediately sent a direct pass to Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang was running back, when he suddenly saw the ball coming, he subconsciously stopped with his left foot, turned around and shot with his right foot.

Piatti's pass was very subtle, but Zhao Yang's shot was more sudden.

The ball was like a fired shell, sticking to the turf and flying straight to the lower right corner of the goal.

The goalkeeper is most afraid of this kind of ground ball with a fast speed and a tricky angle. If there is a change of line on the uneven turf, it will be a nightmare for the goalkeeper.

Moroccan goalkeeper Subasic is not well-known, but his strength is considered good. He was selected for the Croatian national team.

However, the height of 1.9 meters has now become Subasic's Achilles' heel. Before his body is parallel to the ground, the ball has already flown past his hand and into the bottom of the net.

2:0

In the 72nd minute of the game, Zhao Yang scored and the Espanyol led Monaco by two goals.

Watching the ball into the net, Zhao Yang raised his arms high, shouted and rushed to the sidelines, performing a long-distance sliding and kneeling celebration.

The Espanyol fans in the stands went crazy.

More than 4 fans stood up and applauded together, raising their arms and shouting.

At this moment, there is only one name resounding over the entire El Prat Stadium, and that is "Zhao Yang".

The people on the Espanyol bench and the coaches rushed out, cheering and ecstatic, as if the Espanyol team had advanced.

At the commentary booth, the commentators from all walks of life were passionately outputting, and the most excited one was of course the commentator from Huaguo.

He Wei was overwhelmed, "Zhao Yang! Zhao Yang scored a goal! A wonderful cut to the ground! His connecting movement is so skillful! Smooth! The last blow is so powerful! This is a perfect goal! Just It's like a perfect work of art..."

Another Huaguo commentator did not have He Wei's artistic bacteria. He could only rely on his lung capacity to win, and he dragged his long voice and shouted: "Zhao... Yang..."

The Spaniard's commentator was the quickest to calm down after a series of chattering cheers, and analyzed: "Leading by two goals! The victory is secured! Half a foot has stepped into the Champions League match! But now we must calm down and defend with all our strength! Can't let The Monaco took away an away goal! Otherwise! There will be too many variables in the situation..."
