Extraordinary coach

Next, other Monaco players also found it difficult to break through. As a result, they began to reduce their breakthroughs and instead relied mainly on passing coordination to attack Nice's defense.

Before, there were breakthroughs from time to time to bring offense, and the Monaco team felt quite good.

When there was no breakthrough to lead the way, the Monaco team quickly became depressed.

I didn't feel anything about it before, but now I deeply understand the difficulties that the Nice team's bus placement brings to the offense.

There were people everywhere and little space to pass the ball.

Monaco played very hard. The opportunities created are also somewhat inferior to before.

"What's going on? Why is it so ugly all of a sudden?"

"Breakthrough. Use breakthroughs to drive the offense like before!"

"The Nice team is so abominable, they actually put everyone in the back half. You have the guts to attack!"

The ugly scene dissatisfied Monaco fans who felt there was a big contrast between before and after. It's just that they don't know the reason.

Monaco's head coach Jardim didn't understand why the scene changed so suddenly, but he understood that Monaco's offense was in trouble.

"More transfers. More large-scale transfers. Mobilize their defenses."

Next, the Monaco team began to make more large-scale transfers.

Not to mention, Jardim's responses are still very effective. More wide-area ball movements allow Monaco to avoid areas with the largest defensive presence. This gave Monaco a lot of opportunities again.

The Monaco team recreated its murderous intent, which posed a great threat to Nice's goal.

Fortunately, most of the Nice team who were called up to play in international competitions are midfielders and frontcourt players, and the defense is relatively solid. The threats created by the Monaco team were destroyed many times by the back line led by John Terry.

One of them was very dangerous, but luckily Terry managed to escape with his body regardless of his own safety.

"Fortunately we have Terry. With a leader like him on the court, our defense can be so solid. Without him, I can't imagine what the score would have been like." Seeing Terry's performance, Diaw sighed.

"We have a saying in China that an old man in the family is like a treasure. John is the treasure that stabilizes the morale of our team. I am fortunate to be able to bring him to the team at the beginning of the season." Sun Yi nodded.

If it weren't for Terry's outstanding performance. Sun Yi really can't guarantee that the goal can be defended.

"Having him around is so reassuring!"

Having Terry here really puts Sun Yi at ease. In the following game time, except for occasionally going to the sidelines to give instructions, Sun Yi spent most of the time sitting on the bench.

It was under Terry's leadership that although the Nice team had been besieged by Monaco, until the end of the first half, the goal had never been breached.

The score was zero to zero in the first half. Sun Yi is still very satisfied with this situation.

Therefore, after returning to the locker room, Sun Yi did not hesitate to praise the players' performance, especially praising Terry's role.

"I'm happy that we achieved all our tactical goals in the first half. So, it's time to attack with all our strength in the second half."

"Yeah!" Upon hearing the all-out attack, the players became excited. They have long been accustomed to attacking to win, and they really don't like to set up a bus.

"In order to strengthen the offense, I need to make substitution adjustments in certain positions." After speaking, Sun Yi looked at Terry.

As soon as Terry saw Sun Yi's eyes, he turned his head and glanced at Adriano who was specially called into the locker room by Sun Yi. Then, there was no unhappy look on his face, but he nodded calmly.

"Boss, I understand."

Following Terry, he also took the initiative to take off the captain's armband and give it to Sun Yi.

"I'm sorry, John. Because of a special reason, I have to hand over your captain's armband to someone else. Really, I'm not dissatisfied with your performance. You are definitely a role model among the players on the field." Sun Seeing Terry's expression of no regrets, Yi felt a little sorry.

"Boss, I understand. This is a tactical need. With my current physical fitness, it is indeed difficult to continue playing for ninety minutes. This is just a matter of coming down early to rest."

"No, John, it's not time for you to rest yet. You still have to stabilize your defense on the court."

"Oh." Terry raised his eyebrows. Then he looked thoughtfully at the captain's armband in Sun Yi's hand.

What Sun Yi meant was to ask Terry to give up the captain's armband to someone else. It’s not that he needs to go down.

In view of the fact that some mysterious oriental power has been circulating in the team for a long time, others also looked at the captain's armband in Sun Yi's hand.

Seeing the players' eyes like this, Sun Yi nodded knowingly.

In fact, he has also thought about this problem. Such erratic behavior as his is really suspicious. He has also been thinking about how to give the players a reasonable explanation.

Sun Yi put aside the captain's armband that Terry gave him, and then took out the captain's armband with the clover logo embroidered on it from his trouser pocket.

"This is a special captain's armband. When I returned to China last time, I went to a special place to ask someone to bless it. It will bring us good luck. And we need to score goals next, so, I Hopefully it will give the offensive players good luck in scoring goals.”

Sun Yi's explanation is actually not very convincing. But it happened that the Nice players did this.

Except for the Chinese who are mostly atheists, most foreigners in the world believe in religion. Sun Yi's explanation full of superstition was accepted by everyone.

Wow. This is a blessed lucky armband.

I want it! I want the good luck of scoring goals.

The eyes of those offensive players lit up.

But they were not qualified to wear it in Sun Yi's eyes.

"Adriano, this is for you. When you come on the court, do a good job. I hope you can perform well again like last time."

"Yes." Adriano nodded happily, took the captain's armband, and put it on his left arm in the envious eyes of others.

"Come on everyone in the second half! Let's leave here with a smile."

"Yes, boss. We will definitely leave here with a smile."

~~~~

The halftime break passed quickly, and both sides returned to the court.

Before the game started, both sides made substitutions.

Monaco made substitutions, apparently to strengthen the offense. This is not surprising.

"Our team needs to strengthen its attack. That's right. Nice is a group of cowards who can only retreat. Strengthen their attack and kill them!"

Monaco fans were very happy to see their team add an offensive player.

But when they saw Nice's substitution the next second, they panicked.

"That man is coming on the field!"

"That devil is coming on the field, what should we do?"
