A Fei's performance in the first league start was amazing, with an amazing 100% success rate of saves, and two world-class saves crossed the sky like meteors.
This can be seen from the score after the game. Afei is like a brilliant star, shining in the field with the second highest score in the team, second only to Germanin, who scored twice in this game.
Compared with offensive players, defensive players are like green leaves and red flowers, who are born at a disadvantage. For example, in the just-concluded game, his number of shots made up half of the Monaco team. However, as long as he could deliver the ball into the opponent's goal, he would be an excellent striker, and his post-game score would not be low.
What about the defensive players? Especially the goalkeeper, even if you complete ten wonderful saves, but finally let the ball slip away from your fingertips, all previous efforts will be in waste.
In the end, football is a game of scoring goals after all.
But for a player, an excellent game is like a timely rain, nourishing his career, especially for a rookie.
The next day, in the Monaco Weekly, Afei appeared on the page for the first time. Although it only occupied one-third of the position, it was undoubtedly a huge leap. After all, before that, he was just a name.
Although most of the reports are praises for Catalano, while praising Catalano's unique eyesight, they also affirm Afei's performance, which is enough for Afei.
A Fei is by no means an insatiable person. At the same time, he also knows that he has just embarked on a journey. There is still a long way to go in the future, and as long as he goes all out, his future will be bright.
In addition to some praise from the media, Afei has also won the recognition of fans. Afei has the habit of running in the morning. In the past, when Afei ran in the morning, no one paid attention to him at all, and no one knew who he was, even if he had joined Monaco for half a season.
But after the twenty-fourth round, not only did someone take the initiative to greet him, but also someone asked him for an autograph.
To be honest, this feeling is wonderful. Isn't it one of the goals pursued by players to be loved, recognized and admired?
Even in the team, A Fei noticed that there was a little difference.
This is football. The world of football is extremely cruel, but also extremely real. As long as you are outstanding, you can be respected.
Even the compatriot reporter called Afei to congratulate him. Coincidentally, Afei ushered in his first start in Monaco in this round of the league, and the compatriot far away in Le Mans also ushered in his debut in the team league, and played the whole game.
That's why he failed to come to Monaco. After all, he was born on the right path, and Afei was only a half-way monk. The choice between the two is obvious.
However, Afei didn't know anything about it. For the compatriot's blessing, Afei expressed his gratitude. In addition, the two of them did not say much.
Although the first starting performance of the league is perfect, like a bright star shining on the field, it does not mean that Afei can sit firmly in the starting position. In the next time, he not only needed to compete fiercely with Surzac, let alone shake the status of Subasic.
Therefore, on the training ground, A Fei has always been the most diligent one, like a tireless horse galloping hard. Because he knows that only through unremitting efforts can he reap the fruits of success and win the sincere recognition and eager expectation of others.
Afei's efforts were seen in Ranieri's eyes and remembered in his heart. Although Ranieri, as an Italian, has a proud and arrogant side in the field of football, after witnessing Afei's struggle, his eyes finally showed a trace of imperceptible appreciation and recognition, like the stars in the night sky. Although weak, they are enough to illuminate Afei's way forward.
This trace of appreciation and recognition is of extraordinary significance to Afei, because Ranieri is the head coach of the team, and the treatment of the players in the team is almost determined by him.
Therefore, when the drums of the 25th round of the league sounded, Afei appeared on the starting list again like Phoenix Nirvana. In the second starting battle with Surzak, Afei was like a sharp sword, cutting off the thorns again and winning.
You know, before that, Ranieri had been weighing whether to give Surzak a chance. After all, Surzak was as young as Afei and had the same outstanding talent.
However, it was precisely because of Ranieri's appreciation and recognition for Afei that his choice finally showed a subtle tilt, just like the pointer of the balance was slightly biased towards Afei, so that Afei could debut again and continue to write his own brilliant chapter.
Dijon is like a pearl inlaid in the east of France, shining. It is not only the capital of Burgundy, but also one of the four major food capitals of France. It has mouth-watering traditional delicacies such as snails and beef hot pot. It is also the economic and cultural heart of eastern France, constantly injecting vitality and charm into this land.
However, these have nothing to do with Afei. Although this kid has a special fondness for food, this time he came as an enemy of Dijon in order to win a victory here.
"Everyone, welcome to watch the wonderful match between Monaco and Dijon in the 25th round of the French Second Division!" Monaco fans who can't come to the away field in person can only stare at the TV honestly and listen to Polk and Barr's commentary.
"After defeating Le Havre in the last round, we overtook again like rockets on the standings!" In the last round, Guingamp suffered its first defeat since the ninth round, while Nantes failed to defeat Arles at home.
"If we win this game again, we will be 5 points ahead of Guingang and Nante like an arrow off the string!" In this round of the league, Gangang and Nante played one day earlier than Monaco, and it was a direct confrontation between the two teams. In the end, Gangang won Nante with the home advantage and equalized the points.
While Polk and Barr explained the situation of the standings, Monaco, far away from Dijon, was preparing for the final sprint in the locker room of the visiting team.
Dijon is a strong team in the French Second Division. Last season, they were also a team in the French Second Division. Although they only stayed in the French First Division for one season and lost many players after relegation, even so, Dijon's strength is still stronger than that of many French Second Division teams, second only to the top three in the second group.
"Afei, Andres, you should be careful of each other's No. 9!" In this game, the captain Wolf returned to the starting line-up and fought side by side with Kagmacha, and the lineup on both sides remained unchanged.
The No. 9 in Ranielli's mouth is like a bright star. He is the striker of Dijon, Joaville. Last season, on the field of Ligue 1, the striker was like a sharp sword, showing excellent performance. Even if the team is relegated, he will stick to it like a loyal defender, and he will become the well-deserved first striker in Dijon this season.
Strong explosive power and fast speed are the outstanding features of this striker. Long before the game, Afei was like an unforgettable wise man, deeply imprinting the information of the striker in his mind. Not only that, Afei read and remembered Dijon's offensive player information eagerly.
As the saying goes, if you know each other well, you can't win a hundred battles. This is the precious wisdom left by the ancestors. Afei naturally wants to regard it as a guideline and integrate it.
Under the soft reminder of the staff, the players of both sides walked out of the locker room with a firm step like soldiers who were about to go to war. Compared with the last game, Monaco not only adjusted the back line like a copper wall and an iron wall, but also changed the middle and front field like a rebirth.
In the midfield, Dinggom returned to the starting lineup like a king, while Paulson returned to the bench like a mastermind who retired behind the scenes. On the front line, the center Ibrasima Ture started like a tiger, while the Argentine genius Ocampos sat on the bench like a cheetah ready to go.
"Let's wait and see. Is the Chinese goalkeeper who had a perfect performance in the last game just a fash?" Afei's amazing performance in the last game was like the brightest star in the night sky, which made people look forward to him.
On the court, with the crisp whistle of the referee, the curtain of the game was officially opened, and Afei was also facing a great enemy, and soon ushered in the first wave of severe tests. Dijon, who got the opening ball, showed the magnificent momentum of the home battle like a surging wave.
