Just as the Porto players were celebrating their goals, Deschamps also hurried to the sidelines to appease his players. He could see the impact of the goal on his players. On the football field, sometimes this is the case, a unique goal can break the opponent's will to resist, Maradona has done it, Ronaldo has done it....Such goals without exception have one thing in common is that they are unstoppable, although no matter how beautiful they are, they are only a goal, a point. But the impact it has on the players on the field is not something that anyone on the field can know. And Didier Deschamps, who has had a brilliant career as a player, naturally knows this. That's why he quickly woke up his players, otherwise it is likely that in the next short time, Porto can form a series of blows against Monaco, and the game will be over.

Fortunately, the head coach of this Monaco team, Didier Deschamps, was known for his stability and strength during his professional career. He also had some of an impact on the Monaco players, who quickly came to their senses at the shouts of Didier Deschamps. Although I still feel a little unbelievable about Lao Lei's goal, I can basically calm down. Seeing such a situation, Deschamps can be regarded as relieved, a goal behind, for Monaco is not the end, there is still a chance.

It was only then that Porto's celebrations finally stopped. However, it was not the referee who came to call a stop, but the Porto fans who suddenly used their voices too much, and now it is time to take a break. Otherwise, they will go home collectively with a hoarse voice. Lao Lei didn't feel the slightest smugness after scoring at this time, and his hair was messy like a bird's nest. A wrinkled pair looks as if it has been violently "violated". When such an old thunder appeared on the big screen at the scene. It caused a burst of good-natured laughter from the Porto fans who had just rested. Innocently straightened his clothes, remembering the situation when he was suddenly overwhelmed by Tarzan on the sidelines just now. I could only secretly say in my heart: "This group of rubbing goods must be jealous of me, it must be." ”

After the game restarted, Monaco, who had conceded a goal, did not rush to attack and equalize. Instead, he was a little more conservative and upside down at the back, trying to slow down the tempo. Monaco is not trying to stall for time, but rather to slow down the pace of the game and give their backline more time to adjust. Although in the front court, Deco and others launched a tight pressing. However, Monaco's backcourt players can still ensure that the football is always at the feet of their own side under such a pressing. At this time, Lao Lei didn't dare to press down too much, for fear that Monaco would seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack.

In this way, after Lao Lei scored, the tempo on the field did not speed up as everyone thought, but began to slow down. It wasn't until the 28th minute of the first half that another shot on the field after Lao Lei's goal appeared. Monaco striker Pulchau delivered a pinpoint long ball up front, while Porto captain Costa made a mistake this time and he rose to the top. Morientes who cut forward into the box and got a pass from Poulsau. Given a golden opportunity, he was facing Baia directly.

This time, Baia made a meritorious service, attacked in time, and came directly in front of Morientes. In the case of almost being close to Baia. Morientes shot directly with a pick, but did not dodge Baia's hands and was dragged out of the bottom line by Baia. Baia's crucial save. It also drew unanimous loud applause from the frightened Porto fans. Costa also rushed over excitedly and hugged Baia. Show your gratitude. If Morientes scores this time, he will be the undoubted sinner.

However, although the goal was avoided. But Costa still couldn't escape Mourinho's reprimand on the sidelines. In his opinion, Costa was not a misjudgment, but careless. The dominance of Porto in the previous period of the game made Porto's back line too idle and inevitably careless. Jose Mourinho also seized the opportunity to use Costa's example to wake up his back line and lift their spirits.

The situation was like this throughout the first half, with Porto dominating the pitch and attacking non-stop. And Monaco is not without the power to fight back, and the sneak attacks from time to time will also make Porto fans break out in a cold sweat. In this situation, Mourinho is basically satisfied, basically meeting his pre-match tactical effect expectations. Through the tactic of creating offsides, Morientes has played five offsides in the first half. This made the Spanish goalscorer, who was in high spirits this season, depressed and made nothing to do. This also caused Deschamps on the sidelines to be very dissatisfied, and repeatedly protested to the fourth official on the sidelines. In fact, he didn't know whether Morientes was offside or not, anyway, in his heart, he was not offside, so he just put pressure on the referee.

In the 40th minute of the first half, Porto played the last wave of their first half. Lao Lei faced Luo Teng's breakthrough one-on-one in the backfield, and directly stabbed the ball with a precise kick, and cut off the football at Luo Teng's feet. Lao Lei's upper body almost didn't move, and this time the defensive break was quite chic, and it seemed that Luo Teng himself sent the football to Lao Lei's feet. This chic break also aroused the applause of Porto fans, and the commentator at the scene also praised: "In this defense, I saw Redondo from Reima's body." "How did they know that this was what Old Lei learned from Redondo. Although it is not yet fully mastered, it has been very effective against players with average breakthrough ability so far.

After breaking the ball, after Lao Lei took a step forward, it was directly a long pass with a big foot. The ball flew high into the Monaco half and then fell down the path of Maniche's run. Maniche was running, facing the football that fell in front of him, and directly stretched out his right foot to pick it up. After the ball was jumped, it flew directly past the oncoming Monaco right wing-back Ibarra, and then Maniche accelerated again to get around Ibarra. Ibarra, who turned to chase after him, was significantly slower than Maniche and completely overtook him after Maniche reached out and knocked out his hand that was reaching for Maniche's jersey.

On the top edge of the left side of Monaco's penalty area, Maniche flicked his right foot straight out and made a long-range shot. After getting Rodriguez to come up and stretch his leg to block, Maniche gave a light push to McCarthy in the box. McCarthy, who met Maniche's pass, did not stop the ball, and it was just a half-turned muffled shot that crossed the right foot stretched out by Give, who was following the defense. The ball sped on the grass towards the far corner of the goal, and at the same time it drew a slight arc on the grass. It was this arc that helped it escape the hands of Rome. The ball bounced into the Monaco goal again after hitting the inside of the far post. 2:0, in the last attack of the first half, with a long legendary attack planned by Lao Lei, Porto expanded the score.

“GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL！！！ Ben-Ni!! Maniche's lobbles, precise passes and Benny's precise shots were the pearls of the attack, while Reimah's breaks and long balls were the ropes that strung the pearls together into a necklace. It was a thunderous blow that glittered like a pearl, and Monaco's defensive system was crushed before it was fully prepared. Porto's offensive has been staged countless times in the past two seasons. Monaco will not be the last team to eat Porto's kind of attack. ”

With a score of 2:0, Porto's report card in the first half is undoubtedly outstanding. The Porto fans at the scene also cheered again, and the score in the first half could not make them believe that the team was playing in the quarterfinals of the Champions League. Such a score seems to have made them smell the Champions League semi-finals. And this is undoubtedly very satisfying for Mourinho. If they can win Monaco directly in this game, it will undoubtedly be a very wonderful thing for Porto. No matter which way Porto compares to Monaco, it will always be difficult to play away from home in the Champions League, and if you can reduce the difficulty of qualifying, you must reduce it as much as possible.

For the rest of the first half, Monaco, who had been hit in a row, looked timid, did not press out to attack, and wanted to waste the last time. And Porto's side, with two goals in hand, also didn't want to attack again in the final stage of the first half, and wanted to close the rhythm and take a breath. Under the wordless tacit understanding of the two sides, the first half passed in a rather dull rhythm.

At the end of the pitch, the Porto players were naturally happy, while the Monaco players were somewhat silent. However, the love between the two sides is still very good, after all, the score of 2:0 in the first half is a score that is not up or down. This does not guarantee that Porto will qualify, nor does it mean that Monaco has no hope of qualifying, or that their hopes of qualifying are slim. With such a scoreline, if Monaco could score a single goal, the situation would change completely. After all, there is an away goal rule in the Champions League knockout round, and if this game ends with a score of 2:1, then Monaco has basically completed its away mission.

At half-time, Jose Mourinho was in a good mood. But with Costa's mistake in the first half, he didn't dare to praise the Porto players too much. Instead, he repeatedly stressed that a 2-0 score was not a safe scoreline, and he didn't want to see Porto repeat the mistakes Costa made in the first half in the second half. Any goal in the knockout rounds of the Champions League is crucial. For this reason, he deliberately criticized Costa again by name during the halftime break.

The half-time break passed quickly, and to the cheers of the Porto fans, the Porto players were once again in full gear. (To be continued......)
