In This Life I Became a Coach
Chapter 45: Second Half – The Opening
The ball rolled again.
Second half. Forty-six minutes. Same sun, same slow shadows creeping along the Louis-II stands. But something sharper now lingered in the heat—an edge, not in the crowd, but in the silence between passes. The kind of quiet that came before the shift, not after.
Monaco moved first.
Bernardi floated into the right channel, pulling his marker just wide enough for Zikos to slot it back in. Giuly took off down the right but checked his run when the ball didn’t come.
Nice didn’t press.
They didn’t need to.
Not yet.
Forty-ninth minute.
Cissé received near the halfway line. Turned sharp on the pivot, body language tense.
Bernardi pointed inside—clear lane.
Cissé ignored it.
