Chapter 26: The Responsibilities of the Goalkeeper

As the last line of defense on the court, the goalkeeper is lonely most of the time.

When the team attacks, the goalkeeper needs to keep his responsibilities in mind and stand by the goalkeeper to prevent the opponent from counterattacking at any time.

When the team scores goals, teammates will rush up to celebrate, but the goalkeeper is at most just standing by the goalkeeper cheering and applause for his teammates' goals, because the goalkeeper rarely participates in the offense and is too far from the opponent's goal.

All positions in the court may participate in the offense, and even the defenders can participate. There are definitely many guards with swords in football history.

It is basically impossible for the goalkeeper to participate in the offense. Once the goalkeeper leaves the penalty area and enters in front of the penalty area, it means that there is no one to defend his goal, because the goalkeeper is the last line of defense.

However, the goalkeeper still has a way to score a goal, such as relying on free kicks and penalty kicks, but these are only a few, and in the history of world football, there are only a few.

By the way, Subasic, who is recovering from an injury at the moment, took advantage of a free kick to score a goal for Monaco last season.

Among the current goalkeepers, Brazilian goalkeeper Rogerio Seni is a well-deserved goalkeeper with a knife, and his goal number has surpassed Paraguay legendary goalkeeper Chilavit.

Before Seni, Paraguay's legendary goalkeeper Chilavit was the goalkeeper with the most goals in football history, with as many as 67 career goals, but Seni's current number of goals has exceeded 100, far away from Chilavit.

However, it is difficult for such a goalkeeper to reach the top European league. As a goalkeeper, the primary task is to defend and ensure that his goal does not concede or score goals? That is the matter of players other than the goalkeeper.

On the court, Li Shou did not participate in the celebration. He just stood in front of the goal and was happy that the team was the first to score. Moreover, as a goalkeeper, Li Shou knew his task very well. When the team had already scored a goal, he had to do that to maintain this advantage.

The game started again soon, and Le Havre immediately launched a counterattack, but their first wave of offensive did not really threaten the goal guarded by Li Shou.

"Karl, No. 11" veteran Vanchoni broke through on the side and was blocked by Raj. He then crossed the middle to find center Rivier. Li Shou had already seen through his route and immediately directed Medjani to rush forward.

In personal abilities, Kagmacha is better than Medjani, but Kagmacha may not necessarily listen to Li Shou. Medjani is different. He and Li Shou are good friends, and the two have cooperated a lot in the team training matches before.

Under the entanglement of Medjani, although Rivier hit the ball, he did not have the power to the ball. In the end, the ball was interrupted by Kagmacha, and Monaco turned into a defense to an offense.

However, this counterattack did not score again. Three minutes later, Le Havre once again scored into the hinterland of Monaco, but this time it was still resolved by Li Shou.

"Andri, be careful of cutting in No. 17" Le Havre's core is center Rivier and winger Bone. One is strong and the other is heading well, and the other is excellent in footwork skills and fast speed.

Raji, who was reminded by Li Shou, decisively retreated and blocked the line of Bonnene's cutting. At this time, Monaco's midfielder had already chased back. Bonne did not want to be double-teamed and could only pass the ball out.

With these two successful bases, it was much easier to deal with when Li Shou commanded again. In the 13th minute, Li Shou's level commander Kagmacha once again blocked Alefr's attack.

However, Li Shou could not have succeeded this time. The stadium is changing rapidly. No one can really predict what a player will do next, especially those teams with strong personal abilities.

Fortunately, Li Shou is only in Ligue 1 now. If he is in Ligue 1, his success rate may drop rapidly, but at this moment, Li Shou's performance is perfect.

Ranieri was very satisfied with the performance of these ten minutes on the sidelines. Li Shou saw it and Li Shou often did this when he was training in the team.

"Although this is the real debut of this young goalkeeper, his performance is not like it at all." In fact, Li Shou's performance is not only seen by Ranieri, but also by Monaco fans.

"Yes, Mr. Catalano's vision is still so accurate and vicious." Martin Barr did not forget to flatter the old scout.

"This guy looks good." Some fans in the stands agreed.

"This guy is really good. I have watched both cup games before." Fans who have watched the performance of Li Shou Cup immediately echoed.

"I think I'd better look at it again. The cup is different from the league." Some people also expressed doubts about Li Shou.

Li Shou couldn't hear the discussion among fans, and he didn't know that his performance had received initial recognition from many people. At this moment, his attention was all in the midfield of the game.

In the 23rd minute, Le Havre finally got his first shot in the game, and a straight free kick. Medjani knocked down Rieville.

"Jacob, move two more steps to the right" This is a free kick on the left. Li Shou commanded the wall to block his right side, blocking his opponent's near corner as much as possible.

After commanding the wall, Li Shou only had the black and white elf and the free throw player in his eyes.

Fontane, right-footed player, Allefer took the first free kick.

Generally speaking, most right-footed players will choose near corners on the left, but near corners are very challenging to footwork, so Li Shou's wall arrangement is to force the opponent to kick far corners.

"Here, the first real test for Chinese goalkeepers." At this moment, all Monacos were focused on Li Shou.

With the referee's whistle, Fang Dan took a step forward with his left foot and pulled the ball with his right foot.

"Near corner~~~Fontaine still chose the near corner. It seems that he is very confident in his footwork, and the ball flew towards the goal."

Fontane's free kick was very good, and the ball drew an almost perfect arc and flew over the wall toward Monaco's goal.

"The ball is about to score~~~ This is a super free kick, the ball goes straight to the dead corner." Looking at the ball's flight trajectory, some fragile Monaco fans have already covered their eyes with their hands.

"No~~~Li Shou~~~He touched the ball~~~He blocked Fang Dan's shot." Although Li Shou stood near the left, he moved a step in the moment Fang Dan kicked his feet, and then flew.

"How is this possible? He is obviously standing so far." Seeing the ball Li Shou blocking it out of the baseline, Fang Dan looked incredible.

Originally, Fang Dan really wanted to play in the far corner, but after seeing Li Shou standing, he decided to play in the near corner, and he also played the right one. When he finished this shot, Fang Dan felt very good. He felt that his free kick could definitely score.

This was later proved. The ball drew an extremely beautiful arc and flew towards the upper right corner of Monaco's goal. This was an absolute blind spot, and it was when the opponent's goalkeeper stood so tilted to the left.
