Star Coach

The Stade Louis II was packed. There are more than 18,000 seats, and nearly 20,000 spectators are squeezed in. The pressure on the police has increased greatly, and the fans are too crazy to stop them from watching the game.

Jiang Shan held Cooper's hand tightly and said, "Mr. Cooper, we meet again. I hope you can play at a high level and with a good style."

"Haha, we will definitely win the final victory. The spot in the semi-finals belongs to Inter Milan." Cooper said with a stern expression, "I hope you can hold on."

The two of them were smiling and talking sweetly, but they didn't mean what they said. In their hearts, they wanted to step on each other to advance.

Before promotion, there are no friends, only enemies. There is a road in Huashan, and only by crossing it can you reach the threshold of the top four.

Inter Milan went on an away game without any fear. With a strong lineup, they formed a new lineup, 343. Cooper also worked hard. He must win away from home, otherwise there will be no way out.

After the first round of competition between the two sides, coupled with the performance in the last French Ligue 1 game, Cooper has almost figured out the details of Monaco. He is confident and dares to take a gamble.

Goalkeeper Toldo, the unbeatable main force. On the back line, the combination of Cordoba, Materazzi and Cannavaro, just by looking at the name, you know that this is an extremely powerful defensive combination.

At the last moment of the last game, Jiang Shan was still brooding over his failure to defeat Materazzi.

The midfield quartet is Conceição, Zanetti, Di Biagio and Emre, with Zanetti temporarily on the bench.

The frontcourt is a three-forward combination of Crespo, Recoba and Martins, with their fangs exposed, there is no doubt that they are eating Monaco alive.

Monaco's starting lineup is different from Cooper's imagination. There are not many variables in the backcourt players, and there are only a few main players. Goalkeeper Roma, the back line lined up, Evra, Givet, Rodriguez and Ibarra.

Jiangshan has made fine adjustments in the midfield. Today's lineup is 4312, and the defense in the middle is very solid.

The three defensive midfielders, Prasil, Cisse and Smith, were a link that surprised everyone.

Smith's most familiar position is forward. After arriving in Monaco, Jiangshan transformed his position. He has played as a midfielder, forward or defensive midfielder. His biggest role is man-to-man defense.

The front midfielder is Giuly. He has the ability to break through with the ball and organize offense. Monaco's current ace player is of high value. So even if he joins other players to put pressure on the team, Jiangshan still can't give up on him.

The double forwards are Drogba and Nonda. Pushall and Zicos were both on the bench. Although Pushall did not play, the team's average height was much higher.

Zicos sat next to Pushall, almost blocked by the seat.

Cooper looked at Monaco's lineup and suddenly had a bad premonition, "Jiangshan has arranged such a lineup? Do you want to block our high ball tactics?"

On Monaco's two wings, the height of the full-backs was a flaw, so Cooper cleverly put Martins on to bully the full-backs. Now it seems that this design is not very ideal.

Cooper could feel Smith's dislike.

Beep!

The referee blew the whistle to start the game, and the visiting team Inter Milan launched an attack.

Both sides tried it out for ten minutes to get familiar with the intensity and the referee's standards. After gradually getting used to it, they started to take the knife.

Just now I used a knife to chop, now I am going to stab. Cutting will cause injury, stabbing will kill people, and stabbing will also kill people.

Recoba was very fast, dribbling in front of Monaco's penalty area, passing Cisse, and preparing to pass the ball. Martins pulled aside and raised his hand to ask for the ball.

Recoba saw it and sent the ball out, but was intercepted by Smith who was ambushing on the side. After the interception, Smith immediately sent the ball out.

Giulila responded and ran wildly with the ball. Drogba was faster. He was a monster without the ball. Even Cannavaro couldn't stop his impact.

Giuly's dribbling ability is better than that of Recoba, and he can easily send the ball out when facing Zanetti. At the feet of Drogba.

After half a season of training, Drogba's first touch with the ball was much better. He didn't stop ten meters away. With a slight knock, the ball stopped at his feet, and Nonda was pulling space.

Nunda leads the defender over, as smooth as Dove, and is a perfect match for Materazzi. Drogba turned around and sent the ball.

Materazzi and Cordoba's attention was instantly drawn.

No, not sent out. Drogba's actions deceived his opponents and friends, and Nonda missed. He exerted his strength on the spot and took advantage of the situation to shoot hard.

The ball sticks to the ground and flies towards the goal.

Toldo instinctively sat down and blocked the ball with his butt, "Oh, rub it, the force is so strong, it makes me feel so good, I almost got hard."

The ball bounced out, Cordoba fought for the top, and it went over the crossbar for a corner kick.

Jiang Shan looked at Drogba's performance and nodded slightly, "The big guy finally showed some signs of enlightenment. It seems that in the next few games, he will have to find a good feeling."

Drogba was chagrined, Grom Hellscream.

Corner kick.

Drogba said, a strong body requires dedicated personnel to guard against uncontrollable monsters. Inter Milan's three central defenders were very uncomfortable, but Materazzi took the responsibility and took the initiative to defend the big man.

He also launched a psychological offensive, "I was in the nightclub last night. Who do you think I saw? Hey, he looks a bit like your sister. I hope your mother is not there."

Drogba often goes to nightclubs with Smith and Ribery, both of whom are veterans. Moreover, he had been stimulated by Jiangshan's love fortune and was so invulnerable that he immediately responded, "Huh? Were you there last night? Why didn't your mother and I see you?"

"Fuck you." Materazzi made small moves, "Fuck."

Drogba followed Materazzi's moves, suddenly jumped up, then fell to the ground and wailed, the sound tore the earth, was he **?

"Beep!"

The referee rushed over immediately and warned Materazzi. His small move was exaggerated by Drogba and was seen by the referee.

"I... Sun." Materazzi was not happy and was depressed. The corner kick was restarted.

Drogba was surrounded, and the other players had no absolute strong points. Tactical corner kick. Evra held the ball outside the penalty area and knocked it horizontally to Giuly.

Giuly suddenly accelerated, broke through, entered the penalty area, faced with Zanetti's defense and interference, and had to twist the ball out to Nonda.

Nonda wanted to dribble the ball, but it was broken out of bounds by Cannavaro, and continued the corner kick.

The second corner kick also failed to pose a threat. It was controlled by Zanetti and then blocked out of bounds by Plasil.

At the beginning of the game, both sides tacitly entered the midfield to strangle, and the defense was arranged in detail, and the offensive players could not find any opportunities.

Jiangshan also knew that this game could not be rushed. To deal with Inter Milan, they could only swallow it in small bites, and it was impossible to kill it all at once.

The two sides entered a tactical stalemate and could not break the situation.

Cooper frowned, "I arranged three forwards, but it didn't seem to work. I didn't expect Jiangshan to arrange Smith to play as a defensive midfielder. This guy is simply a gummy, with abundant physical energy and active defense. It's difficult to deal with!"

Fifteen minutes into the game, Cooper made a useless move, and the three forwards did not work. Jiangshan's tactical arrangement was slightly superior.
