Star Coach

Chapter 149 Overtime

8 minutes of injury time had passed, and the total time of the whole game had exceeded 100 minutes. The referee was finally embarrassed to continue the injury time. After thinking again and again, he stopped the game and both sides prepared for overtime.

Monaco fans shouted wildly and cheered for the heroes. The scores of 4:2 in two games and 6:6 were enough to make them proud of the team. The Champions League semi-finals against Real Madrid and entering overtime were enough to satisfy Monaco fans.

Jiangshan and Bosque had used up the last substitution quota. Among the Monaco players on the field, only Cisse, Bernardi and Smith, who came on as substitutes, were still physically fit. The others were almost all weak and had reached a physical bottleneck.

The Champions League overtime lasts 30 minutes, but according to the current rules, the Golden Ball system. As long as one team scores, the other team will be declared dead suddenly. So in overtime, whoever scores first wins, and there is only one way to attack.

This is different from the silver ball system that was implemented later. The silver ball system is fairer. The home team has the home advantage, but the away team's goal is counted as an away goal. Whether from the perspective of fairness or encouraging offense, the silver ball system is more reasonable.

In any case, the overtime of the Golden Ball system is more exciting. It depends on the flash of inspiration of the stars. It is unpredictable who will rise and fall.

On the Real Madrid side, Ronaldo has already left the field. Morientes, Raul, and Figo also have strong offensive capabilities. There is also Zidane, don't forget his flying fairy.

The situation is still difficult.

Bosque has gone through many battles and constantly encouraged the players, encouraged offense, and arranged defense. "We have only one goal, which is to score goals. Let Monaco force this point. I'm sorry for the audience and our team logo. I ask the players in the frontcourt to pass and cut quickly and tear their defense line."

"In overtime, all teams will focus on offense. Makelele, Hierro, don't give them a chance." Bosque hugged the two, his stomach was a little soft and elastic.

They are physically fit and have a solid defense, which is the key to the team's victory.

"We will definitely complete the task. You can attack with confidence." Hierro and Makelele wanted to prove themselves and said in unison.

Jiangshan lacked experience in major competitions, but he knew that it would be a sure death to play against Real Madrid at this time. Who can beat Real Madrid? Not even Manchester United.

He understood Bosque's tactical characteristics and decided to take a different approach. "Guys, we have fought to this level and there is no way back. At the last moment, everyone has the ability to decide the game."

"Listen carefully, there are cheers for the heroes everywhere. You are today's heroes. Whether you can be called great depends on the next game."

He recalled that when he was filming, he explained the play to a bunch of actors and players. Now he brought it out again, and it really aroused the recognition of all the players. They were full of strength again, gritted their teeth, and hoped that they would be there.

Thanks to the experience of filming, Jiangshan said secretly in his heart that he would go to the crew to be a star during the off-season.

"Drogba, can you still hold on?" Jiangshan stared at Dehua and shouted loudly.

"I will die on the field. I am a national hero. I will crush everything!" Warcraft's blood was boiling and full of fighting spirit, even though his feet were shaking and his physical strength had reached the limit.

"Okay, my tactics are very simple. Get the ball, kick it directly, find Drogba, let him control the ball, whether it is to the players who come in from behind or shoot directly, I trust you."

Roma nodded and muttered loudly, "I don't want to drag it to the penalty shootout, kill them for me."

Although Jiangshan has made arrangements for the penalty shootout, the shooting habits of Real Madrid players have been dug out, but there is no must-win in the penalty shootout. If possible, no one wants to have a penalty shootout.

Xu Yang was stunned and didn't know what happened. He didn't even react. How did Monaco survive under Real Madrid's bombardment? He has already breathed a sigh of relief and exchanged for another 30 minutes of life.

Huang Jianxiang was very excited. "Today's game, I believe it will become a classic. In the last moment, Monaco withstood Real Madrid's crazy attack and dragged the game into overtime."

"No matter what the result of overtime is, today's game will become a classic. Personally, I feel that Real Madrid vs. Manchester United and Real Madrid vs. Monaco are classics among classics. No matter who wins the Champions League this year, this year's Champions League will be remembered many years later."

"Yes, that's right. It's too classic. Especially the fight between Jiangshan and Bosque on the sidelines has become a topic of discussion among fans." Xu Yang's ankle hurt, and he finally started to speak.

After speaking, he kicked back secretly, "Of course, in overtime, Real Madrid's hope of advancing is greater. Their last-minute attack almost broke Monaco's defense. Monaco players have no physical strength. The last moment is a moment of competition of will, technology and psychology."

The overtime began. Bosque's hands also shook slightly. Jiangshan was young and could still control his body, but his legs in his trousers were also shaking, nervous and excited.

He heard the referee's whistle and sat cross-legged on the sidelines, like a meditating Taoist priest, with a cold expression and a weird image.

This action instantly attracted the attention of the whole audience. Focus, Jiangshan became the focus again at a critical moment.

The camera quickly turned around. I have never seen a coach sitting on the sidelines to direct the game, and his sitting posture, isn't this the sitting posture of Buddha?

There are many classic scenes of Jiangshan, such as grabbing popcorn, smoking cigars, dancing on the sidelines, returning to the locker room before the end, etc. Today, there is another scene of sitting cross-legged. Tomorrow's headline will definitely be this picture.

In contrast, Bosque's nervous expression was also captured by the photographer.

Jiangshan acted like a wizard, and the players relaxed immediately. Facing Zidane's pass, Evra intercepted again and broke out of the penalty area.

Unfortunately, Drogba failed to control the ball under Makelele's care and was taken away by Figo.

Figo rushed to the penalty area and gave up the mentality of competing with Zidane. He decisively passed the ball and let him distribute it. At the critical moment, Figo could see the overall situation.

Zidane made a lob pass under Cisse's care, and the exquisite pass fell into the penalty area. Morientes moved smartly and appeared again. He shot in the air without waiting for the ball to land.

Roma made a prediction in advance, dived sideways, and blocked the ball on the penalty area line. Ibarra took the ball and passed it out with a long kick.

Falling to the midfield, Giuly was in control. He faced Makelele and passed the ball out, but failed. Carlos took the order halfway.

"It seems that Monaco intends to drag the game to a penalty shootout, but it is impossible to defend. Real Madrid's attack is too sharp, and Monaco can't defend for half an hour." Xu Yang's mood gradually relaxed. He saw Real Madrid's offensive and saw the hope of winning.

Real Madrid's attack continued. Bernardi made a desperate tackle and finally intercepted Zidane's ball. He dribbled the ball, broke through, and gave it to Smith.

Smith had a strong impact, passed Guti, and passed it to Ribery.

Ribery called back, dribbled, continued to break through, and prepared to find Drogba. Unfortunately, he faced Makelele and had few ways to form an effective attack. The ball was intercepted by Makelele.

"Too slow, can't waste time passing in the midfield." Jiangshan sat and said calmly. His gestures speak for themselves.

Morientes retreated, Zidane switched positions with him, and there was space for a long shot.

Whoosh!

Zidane bared his fangs and demonstrated a volley.

In the 2002 Champions League final, Zidane's shot against Leverkusen was one of the most exciting shots in the European Cup final.
