On the night of March 31st, the Principality of Monaco was brightly lit all night.
This French League Cup championship is not only an honor for the Monaco club, but also an honor for the Principality of Monaco.
The Monaco royal family personally received the entire Monaco team and expressed their appreciation for the Yunsheng family.
In the square outside the Louis II Stadium, Monaco fans celebrated late into the night.
Because there was training the next day and several important games in a few days, Yun Sheng discussed with Prince Albert and ended the celebration early.
Through the loudspeakers in the stadium, Yun Sheng's voice reached every corner.
"Dear fans and friends, I hope you will wait a little longer. I believe this is definitely not the end of Monaco's glory this season. I hope everyone will go back to rest early, recharge their batteries, and wait for a bigger celebration!"
Yun Sheng's words once again caused a sensation. The fans cheered and looked forward to the future!
After winning the French League Cup final, three days later, Monaco faced Nancy at home.
They had a tough time in this game.
Affected by more than a week of games, the physical condition of Monaco players has declined. In the first half of the game, Monaco took a 1-0 lead thanks to the cooperation of Shevchenko and Recoba.
But in the second half, Monaco's main players were obviously lacking in physical strength, and their counterattack and defensive speed were much slower.
Faced with this situation, Yunsheng asked the team's three lines to shrink to protect the defense, and then replaced the exhausted Recoba with Dong Fangzhuo to add a counterattack point for a speedy forward.
In the 78th minute of the game, it was Dong Fangzhuo who received a pass from Chen Tao and scored a goal on his own, helping the team completely seal the victory.
In the final game, Monaco defeated Nancy 2-0 at home and overcame all obstacles to reach the French Cup final.
The French Cup final will be held at the end of April. Monaco's opponent is Bordeaux, who is second in the league.
Everything went well in the cup, and Monaco once again turned its attention back to Ligue 1 and began the battle to retain the Ligue 1 title.
Throughout April, Monaco has played four Ligue 1 games. From the 30th to the 33rd round of Ligue 1, Monaco played against Toulouse, Sochaux, Nancy and Le Mans respectively. In these four games, Monaco achieved all the results. Winning record!
It is worth mentioning that Shevchenko and Recoba performed very well. They jointly contributed 10 goals in these four games and were the biggest contributors to the team's winning streak.
This is the strength of a world-class striker!
On April 28, Yun Sheng and Bordeaux coach Lauren Blanc shook hands in a friendly manner at the Chabon Dale Polo Ground in Bordeaux.
If it were at the beginning of the league, Blanco would never take Monaco and Yunsheng seriously.
It's just a down-and-out wealthy team. How difficult is it to play?
Before the last round of the first half, Blanco had already begun to pay attention to Yunsheng.
This young Chinese coach has two skills and is actually able to lead the team to the top of the standings. The young man is very capable.
But at this moment when they met again, Blanco looked at Yun Sheng seriously, his eyes were quite meaningful.
"Coach Yunsheng, the last time we played against each other, you led Monaco to a 4-2 victory over my team. I knew at that time that you would be my enemy on the road to the championship. But a few months later, I Unexpectedly, I still underestimated you. You are not only my opponent, but my biggest opponent!"
"In just a few months, you made Monaco become the most popular team in Ligue 1. In the league, they won consecutive victories and rushed to the top of the standings; in the cup, they won the French League Cup and reached the semi-finals of the French Cup. It's really Amazing."
Yun Sheng smiled slightly: "It's just good luck and the outstanding performance of the players that led to the current situation."
Blanco shook his head: "You Chinese are like this, always so humble. Are you lucky? There are so many lucky people, why don't they have your results? Are the players outstanding? The new players who joined Monaco this season, in the past The team has not performed at its current level.”
"After all, you have enough strength. Coach Yun Sheng, you... have a bright future."
After breaking up with Blanco, Prolo asked curiously: "What were you two talking about? You two talked for so long?"
"He asked me why Monaco had good results."
"What did you say?"
"I said that because Monaco's assistant coach is better, we are better."
"Haha, you guys are so good at talking."
Although the finals were approaching, Yun Sheng was chatting and laughing without any nervousness.
Throughout the second half of the season, except for a draw with Nice in the 27th round of the league, Monaco achieved a complete victory in both the league and the cup!
After consecutive victories, both Yunsheng and the Monaco players are now full of confidence.
Not to mention playing the French Cup final with Bordeaux, even if they were playing in the Champions League final, they wouldn't be shy!
There are not many big-name stars in the Bordeaux team, and they rely on excellent overall tactical play.
In this game, Bordeaux center Cavinagi and midfielder Gourcuff formed the central axis of the offense and started the game.
In addition to the two of them, all-around midfielder Wendell, knife-wielding left back Tremulina, fast horse forward Bergion...Bordeaux also played with all the main players today.
At the beginning of the game, the two teams performed top-notch.
The two sides have a balanced offense and defense, and they all play steadily. Generally, they will not easily attack the opponent's penalty area. As long as they attack out, there is a huge threat.
In the 5th minute of the game, Gourcuff made a precise pass. Under Kompany's defense in the penalty area, Kavinaghi took the ball with his back and suddenly turned around and hit the goal!
The ball was slightly in the right direction, but Hildebrand reached out to block it as a reflex, giving Bordeaux a corner kick.
After saving the ball, Hildebrand was left with lingering fears.
As long as the Argentinian's shot went just a little further, the goal would definitely have been scored.
Bordeaux's attack was fruitless, and Monaco's attack started again.
In the tenth minute of the game, Monaco's attack was initiated by Flamini again.
"Flamini suddenly made a long pass and the ball went to Ljungberg on the left!"
"Ljungberg broke through with the ball and shook off a defender! Will he continue to push forward?"
"Ljungberg chose a large-scale transfer! The ball fell to Chen Tao on the right!"
"Chen Tao passed the ball directly without stopping! Recoba, who was in the front, feinted and missed the ball!"
"Shevchenko nodded the ball towards the top! The ball went in!!!"
"Just now Recoba attracted the attention of the Bordeaux defender and goalkeeper from the front. Shevchenko stepped in from the back row and scored with a header!"
"In this cooperation, the two world-class Monaco forwards performed extremely well! They scored on their first attack!"
