Chapter 77: Rogue Millwall
Facing the Lions Millwall away, Charlotte naturally didn't dare to be careless, so she didn't dare to let Sterling or Harry Kane play when the manpower was tight.

After hesitating for a while, Charlotte still deployed a formation of three midfielders.

"Facing the leaders of the league, Millwall showed great power at home. Although James Henry did not score as many goals as Henry, he still cannot be ignored in the British Championship."

"The ball was handed over to Terry Lecon. In the opening 10 minutes, Millwall played his own momentum and Southampton was suppressed. Here I have to say something about the wisdom of the young Southampton coach. Luckily, a three-midfield formation was arranged in the game, so that the barriers in the midfield and backcourt can be fully guaranteed.”

"Hey, Jack. You just know that it's normal for Southampton to be able to overwhelm Millwall." John, who was partnering with Jack in the commentary, planned to liven up the atmosphere when the scene was not yet compact.

In fact, sometimes the commentator who explains the football game is similar to the crosstalk actor. One is funny, one plays the role of funny, and the other plays the role of flattery. They cooperate with each other to enliven the atmosphere of the fans.

Sure enough, as soon as John said it, Jack understood what it meant, and continued, "Why?"

"Oh, Jack, you just said Southampton were the league leaders."

"That's right, they have now scored 39 points, seven points ahead of No.2 Reading." Jack was very sure.

"Look, Jack, Southampton is the leader, the sheep. And what about Millwall? They are wild lions, lions! Isn't Southampton going north to London like a sheep into a lion's mouth."

"Hahaha, well, John. Your nonsense using the animal food chain to explain it seems to work."

It's a pity that these two commentators belong to Sky Sports, not the commentators on the field. Otherwise, Charlotte would definitely move a pony stool and take a bag of melon seeds to watch "Cross Talk".

The situation on the scene looks like Millwall, which is playing at home, has the advantage, but laymen watch the fun, and insiders look at the way.

Although Millwall has a high desire to attack, the quality is not very good. It is difficult for them to threaten the goal guarded by the German kid Ter Stegen.

So Charlotte is not worried, if there is a good show, he doesn't mind watching a good show to kill time.

Millwall's left midfielder Jordan Stewart took the ball. He looked at Darius Henderson who dropped back from the striker to meet him, and wanted to hand the ball to the opponent.

But the experienced Dean Hammond directly saw through the opponent's thoughts, so he came directly with a shovel before the opponent had even started.

Stuart didn't notice that Hammond was running towards him, and it was too late by the time he smelled the danger.

Hammond didn't expect that the opponent didn't dodge, and he was about to meet his feet. Hammond, who couldn't hold his feet, pressed the soles of his feet down as much as possible. Spikes also do no harm to each other.

Hammond's toe poked the football off, and then under inertia, his toe also poked into the opponent's supporting foot, and Stewart was brought down.

Stewart, who was brought down, clutched his ankle and let out a cry of "pain", then rolled around on the lawn.

After all, for most players, "acting" is also a compulsory course.

At this time, the ball was at Sturridge's feet. Sturridge originally wanted to take the ball and launch a counterattack. After all, this was a good opportunity.But the player behind him looked injured, so he kicked the football over the touchline.

The on-duty referee Graham Scott immediately blew his whistle and then signaled Millwall's team doctor to enter the field.

At this time, Millwall players Lecon and Abdul surrounded the referee. They believed that Hammond's tackle just now was very dangerous, and the referee should issue a card to warn the opponent.

Hammond was in a hurry and rushed forward to explain.

Scott separated the two groups of players and said: "That was not a foul. I can see clearly that Hammond tackled the football first and then brought down Stewart. So there is no dispute. You should disperse now." open."

Hammond heaved a sigh of relief. Although he was very sure that he uprooted the football first, no one could say clearly about this kind of thing, but he was relieved with the referee's words.

But the Millwall players were not satisfied with the referee's answer.

"Damn it, our teammates are in such pain, you say that's not a foul?"

"What do you mean? Are you trying to favor the other party?"

"Hey, I said Graham, you have to figure it out, this is the Lion's Den Stadium, our home stadium!"

Scott motioned to the captain of the opposing team, Paul Robinson, to pull his teammates away and stop making unnecessary arguments.

Charlotte frowned on the sidelines, and he had a bad feeling in his heart that this game would be even more difficult than he had expected.

After the team doctor gave Stewart a simple treatment, the other party was able to be alive and kicking on the field again.

And at this time, an interesting scene happened, because Sturridge had watched the opponent's player injured and fell to the ground in pain, so he kicked the football out of the sideline, allowing the game to be suspended.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, after the game restarts, the team where the player is injured will directly drive to the opponent's backcourt with a big kick after kick-off, and return the ball to the previous offensive team.

But at this time Millwall's midfielder Abdul did not return the ball to Southampton. After receiving a throw-in from Jack Smith, he passed the ball directly to Stewart, and Stewart immediately returned. Handing the football to Henderson, Millwall went straight to attack.

The Southampton players were all stunned. They were still waiting for the opponent to return the ball. How could the opponent's attack start?

"Damn it, don't stand there stupidly, hurry up and get back on defense!!!" Charlotte stood on the sidelines and jumped angrily.

When Millwall's offense had advanced to the front of Southampton's penalty area, the Southampton players finally reacted. The opponent's striker McCoyd took the ball, and Schneiderlin stuck close to the opponent, not letting the opponent He dribbled the ball with ease, and then seized the opportunity to make a sudden kick and destroy the football.

Jack Cork got the football, but his back was facing the attacking direction, and he also saw the opponent's attack before, so he destroyed the football out of the sideline first.

The Southampton players approached the referee to complain, but the referee had no choice. In this kind of thing, a gentleman would return the ball to the opponent, but today he encountered a rogue-like Millwall, who not only refused to return the ball Don't say anything, but take advantage of this to sneak attack
However, there is no explicit provision for this in the football rules. These are unwritten unspoken rules on the football field
The referee Scott had no choice but to appease the Southampton players, and then called the Millwall captain over again to communicate.

Charlotte is also very dissatisfied with this, but he knows that this has nothing to do with the referee. Now Millwall does not give face to the referee, so Southampton does not need to put pressure on the referee in the next game. Kurt will definitely not give Millwall a good face.

So Charlotte ran to Millwall's coaching bench and sarcastically said to the Welsh head coach Kenny Jackett: "Millwall is a London team, what about the British gentleman you agreed to? If I , I am definitely embarrassed to stay in London, I will find a way to move the team to places like Turkey or Somalia in the Middle East, the customs there should be very suitable for Millwall."

"You" Kenny Jackett vomited blood angrily, and wanted to scold the other party, but Charlotte didn't give him a chance at all. After speaking, he ran to his command area in a hurry, leaving the other party with a cool back.

Jackett wanted to catch up with the opponent, but the fourth official rushed over to stop the opponent. He didn't notice that Charlotte rushed over just now, but it was obvious that Charlotte came to the opponent's coach What he said was definitely not "Hello!", "Have you eaten?" and the fourth official would definitely not let Jackett go to "recover the scene" again in order to avoid conflicts.

Seeing Jackett "communicating" with the fourth official with a 49-year constipated expression on his face, and seeing Charlotte come back proudly like a rooster who has won a battle, assistant Dean Wilkins is very happy. Curious: "What did you just say to Jackett?"

Charlotte shrugged innocently: "I told him, if I am the head coach of Millwall, I will definitely have no shame to continue to stay, and I will not think about the game next, but consider the resignation report after the game is over. how to write."

Wilkins: "."

"Oh, by the way, I kindly told him that the resignation report can be written like this, such as 'My tactical ability is not suitable for a hooligans team or a robber team or something'"

Wilkins: "."

Wilkins doesn't know what to say anymore. The meritorious coach who led Millwall from the relegation team to the top ten of the British Championship was actually said by Charlotte.
This mouth is really poisonous, and even after being scolded, he still can't speak.

Wilkins smiled, just being swept away by Millwall's anger and depression, he turned around and went to the sidelines to convey new instructions to the coaching staff to the team.

The game was full of gunpowder from the moment Stewart was brought down, and when Abdul failed to return the ball to Southampton and took advantage of this opportunity to catch Southampton by surprise, this smell of gunpowder gradually began to permeate the entire pitch .

Jack Cork took the ball and just turned around to go to Sturridge, but was brought down by the opponent's midfielder Terry Lecon.
