Chapter 30 Mallorca, who is not like the La Liga team

"Oh oh oh oh oh! Beautiful direct free kick! Yuwan Stankovic! Mallorca equalized the score! After winning free kicks in five consecutive positions, Mallorca finally equalized the score with a curved ball from Stankovic! Their foul tactics have had a good effect. The goal obtained at the end of the first half is very important to Mallorca!" The espn's commentator shouted loudly.

The Mallorca fans in the stands gave extremely loud cheers to celebrate the team's equalization. Although they were scored by the opponent at the beginning, Mallorca's advantage in the scene next made them full of confidence, and this equalizer even more exhaled their passion!

Stankovic jumped up to the stands and let out a loud roar, while the teammates behind him rushed forward and waved their fists at the stands!

Jose nodded heavily, able to equalize the score before the end of the first half, and the second half of the game will be easier.

Puel frowned and looked at all this, thinking about how to play in the second half - it was obvious that his previous judgment was wrong.

Two minutes after the game started again, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half, and one-to-one, the draw between the two sides entered the halftime break.

Obviously, this score is not good for Mallorca, who plays at home, and is a good result for Monaco. However, the head coaches on both sides cannot show this situation - Jose has a faint smile on his face, while Puel frowned and looked worried.

"Everyone did a good job in the first half! Although they scored an away goal, I can assure you that if you continue like this, the trouble that this away goal can bring is nothing to us... Monaco has only two choices in the second half. First, continue to defend and counterattack, so we can continue to form suppression. Second, if they attack, our offense will be easier - they attack, and our main force in the offense is Samuel, using his breakthrough ability to create opportunities! Don't forget that four of the five players on their defense line already have yellow cards. This is where we can use it. Whether they are defending or offensive, we must resolutely use breakthroughs to create opportunities. Don't worry about not being able to score. Badz's performance in the World Championship and his performance in the club are completely two people. It is not very difficult to break through his goal."

Jose's confident words made the entire locker room laugh. To be honest, Badz's performance in the first half was indeed not very good. He received a few long shots and took the ball, and he seemed even slower in saving Stankovic's free kick.

"Anyway, the score is one to one now, which is not good for us for the time being, but we still have many advantages. As long as we seize a few opportunities in the second half, the goddess of victory will show us a sweet smile... The League Cup game will inevitably be difficult to play every game, but as long as we play to our own advantages and are not distracted on the court, we will definitely get the results we want. Don't forget that we were the third place in La Liga last season, and our strength this season has not actually declined... We must believe in our own abilities, so that we will have the opportunity to get everything."

After saying this, Jose waved his hand: "Now, have a good rest. The 45 minutes of the second half will be the decisive moment that determines whether we can enter the quarterfinals of the League Cup. Guys, keep your spirits well before the decisive battle."

The locker room was quiet, the veterans closed their eyes and rested, while the energetic young players were chatting about the first half.

Almost all players expressed their congratulations to Stankovic - this goal by Stankovic was also Mallorca's first direct free kick this season, which is indeed worth celebrating.

"Samuel, you need to make more breakthroughs in the second half. Monaco's midfield defensive players are not very good at speed. Your breakthrough will play a big role at that time." Ibagasa patted Etoo's shoulder and said with a smile.

Argentina's small man is a man with a good temper. Although he made many breakthroughs in the middle in the first half, he could see that Etoo's breakthrough seemed to be more threatening than him.

"No problem, look at me!" Perhaps because he had been with Tristan for a long time, Etoo, who was originally silent, began to become active, and from time to time he said something bold and bold like Tristan.

Looking at the players' performance, Jose smiled slightly. In the second half, Etoo will indeed be a very important pawn. Whether Monaco continues to defend and counterattack or pushes out the attack, his speed will pose a huge threat to those Monaco players who already have a yellow card.

The tactical intentions have been arranged, and it will depend on the players next!

After the whistle sounded at the beginning of the second half, Jose began to watch Monaco's tactics very carefully and carefully. What tactics Monaco used in the second half determines what kind of victory Mallorca may achieve.

It’s not that Jose is arrogant, but after the first half, he has confirmed that Mallorca has been able to hold the victory in his hands. Next, it’s just a matter of how many goals they can win - in the first round, the more they win, the better!

At the beginning of the second half, Mallorca, who was driving the ball, attacked amid the shouts of fans of the game, and Monaco also gave up the tactic of shrinking in the front of the penalty area in the first half, and bravely fought with Mallorca in the midfield.

Seeing the opponent's appearance, Jose was not surprised and happy. Monaco wanted to push up and attack, which certainly increased the pressure on Mallorca's defense line, but their defense line space would also become larger. In addition, the reality that the players on the defense line basically carried a yellow card. Etoo's speed alone was enough for Monaco's defenders to drink a pot.

There was nothing wrong with his judgment.

After Mallorca's attack was defended by Monaco, Monaco immediately launched an attack. Galado and Juli made consecutive passes and cuts, while Mallorca's defense began to recover the defense!

Puel stared at the stadium tightly. During the break, he chose to use offense to suppress Mallorca. Although this tactic is risky, it is more beneficial for Monaco, who plays away. After all, as long as they score another goal, their advantage will be greater.

However, Jose asked them to do this. The only adjustment Jose made during the break was to appropriately retreat the defense line and increase the number of counterattacks - this is also Mallorca's old career.

When Monaco was pressing for attack, Etoo's position had quietly moved forward. The Cameroonian cheetah who had been ambushing behind Tristan had already shown his sharp minions, ready to leave deep wounds on his prey at any time!

The simultaneous retracement of Ngongga and Soler allowed Mallorca to defend steadily at the front of the penalty area. After passing back and forth, seeing that there was no good way, Galado passed the ball to Juli, hoping to create opportunities through his wing break.

Jiuli did not disappoint his teammates. Relying on outstanding speed, Jiuli broke through Olesora. However, the veteran Mallorca did not completely lose his position and still stuck to the opponent's inward cutting route - this is almost an important means for Mallorca's defense, that is, there will not be much interference in the cross from the wing, but as long as you want to cut in, you will definitely stop you!

Jiuli, who was only a little taller than Ibagasa, saw that he could not cut inside, so he decisively took the ball and then directly crossed it!

The ball swirled and flew towards Mallorca's penalty area, and Pursau and Simeone jumped up at the same time!

In front of Nino, veteran Simeone headed the ball to the back point, and Pursau inserted it from the back row and was about to head off the goal!

"This goal is going to score!" Puel stood up, looking forward to the appearance of this goal, however.

Just when Pursau thought he wanted to push the ball into the goal guarded by the young goalkeeper, a red figure soared into the sky, and he almost rushed in front of him and pushed the ball out of Mallorca's penalty area!

The veteran Nadal on the back line saved Mallorca! Nadal, who is the most famous and honored in Mallorca's formation, showed strong fighting spirit at this moment!

"Beautiful job! Miguel!" Jose shouted, while Puel on the other side waved his hand suddenly, looking regretful!

The broadcast footage gave the two head coaches a close-up at the right time, and soon, they caught the fleeting emotional changes on the faces of the two head coaches!

A hint of astonishment flashed across Puel's face, and a burst of ecstasy appeared on Jose's face!

The broadcast camera quickly cut back to the court, and the ball pushed out by Nadal was taken by another veteran Ngongga. Then Mallorca's captain immediately made a long pass!

The ball flew toward the center circle, and Tristan and Marquis jumped up at the same time. However, despite having the advantage of head-on confrontation, Marquis was still depressed and found that he was suppressed by the opponent's center and could not jump at all!

Tristan didn't care how frustrated the defender who was guarding him was now. Seeing the landing point of the ball, Tristan waved the ball and directly swung the ball towards Monaco's half!

A long pass from the backcourt, a center forward swings, and a fast forward inserts!

Long passes and rushes to speed up counterattacks - in this attack, Mallorca is like an Italian team and an English team, but not like a La Liga team.

However, Mallorca fans don't care about this. The team they support is not Barcelona or Real Madrid. They will not expect the team to play well and win. As long as they can score goals, they will no matter what team Mallorca is like!

Christenval's reaction and judgment were also very fast. After seeing that Tristan had completely suppressed Marquez, he immediately started running back. He was originally the defender who was dragging Monaco in the final. Although Tristan's header seemed to be far behind, he felt that he could catch up with the ball and clear the ball at the first time.
Chapter completed!
