Chapter 454 The opponent does not need sympathy

The news that Mourinho was leaving Chelsea did not affect Millwall's match against Chelsea.

The two sides still played against each other normally.

When Millwall's bus entered the Neil Stadium, there were media in the mixed area hoping to interview Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang didn't want to be interviewed at first, but when he heard the news about Mourinho from the reporter, he walked over and emphasized, "I can only ask questions now. In the press conference later, I will not answer topics that have nothing to do with the game."

The reporter immediately cherished the opportunity to ask questions.

The reporter's question was nothing more than asking Zhang Yang to express his views on Mourinho's "situation".

This question has been answered by many other managers, and many Premier League managers have expressed their support for Mourinho.

It is said that Manchester United coach Ferguson, who has a good personal relationship with Mourinho, said of Mourinho's departure, "It will make me very disappointed. I like having him around. We have coffee together and can See he's a good guy. I enjoyed competing with him, I don't know what's going on now."

Ferguson also specifically mentioned Zhang Yang, "If there is a choice, I hope that the head coach of Millwall has problems, and English football will become more active without him."

Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger also said he felt Mourinho would stay. "I can't talk about Chelsea. Because I don't know what happened there. But I think he will stay."

Wenger also said that a manager can only be effective if he 'has the support of the club'. "A manager should have his work authority. I am very lucky to come to Arsenal to manage. I have been able to work here for ten years, thanks to the club. It's an environment where you have total freedom from the start to work the way you want. The structure at Chelsea may be different, but I can't comment because I don't know who's in charge there."

Fulham coach Coleman said that Chelsea's top management must be mentally abnormal to let Mourinho leave. "Chelsea have encountered some difficulties, but this is the first time in more than two years. Such a stupid decision."

Newcastle's coach Rodell said, "I hope Mourinho will not leave. He is an excellent coach. If he leaves, it will be a huge loss for the Premier League."

Among the many voices of support, the voices of Chelsea players are also indispensable. Drogba, who is trusted by Mourinho, said, "Mourinho has established a Chelsea culture. We all like his coaching style. He gives the team Brings confidence. Losing him would be excruciatingly painful and a sad parting for the players because it would mean losing a friend. I don't know what will happen, but if it does, it will be sad. Rumors are everywhere now, but hopefully he will stay."

When a lot of solidarity sounded, Zhang Yang, as the head coach of Millwall, must have something to say. He took the initiative to accept the interview and first responded to Ferguson's words, "It is me who he (Ferguson) wants to leave? I'm sorry, I don't Will go because we always beat United and the club and the fans are happy with that."

"However, I am very disappointed in his thoughts. This reminds me of the competition in the primary school class. The No.2 in the class does not take the initiative to study hard, but hopes that the No.1 will transfer to another school. That is not a positive way of thinking. ..." The meaning of the words is that Ferguson is childish like a primary school student, and a primary school student with a mind full of negative emotions.

Many reporters couldn't help bursting out laughing when they heard Zhang Yang's words. Among them were reporters from "Manchester Athletic". They supported Manchester United and Ferguson, but when they thought of this metaphor, they still found it very interesting.

"Zhang Yang's mouth...is really sharp!" Many reporters lamented.

Zhang Yang continued to talk about Mourinho, "If he really will leave, I feel very sorry. He is an admirable opponent. I will also miss the contest between us."

"But it's not a farewell. European football is so big, whether he goes to Italy, or Spain, or anywhere else, we will definitely have a chance to meet, or in the Champions League, or other events, after all we They are still young, I believe he can still coach for 20 years, unlike some coaches who are too old to consider retirement..."

Zhang Yang finally satirized Ferguson and left the reporters' sight.

When it was time for the press conference, Zhang Yang stopped talking about Mourinho. Instead, he talked about the game, the pre-match preparations, the match schedule Millwall faced, and so on. In short, all the topics mentioned are related to the game and the team.

Then the game officially started.

Not long after the game started, it could be seen that both sides played very steadily and were not disturbed by outside news. Because of this, the game was very dull from the beginning.

Chelsea take defense very seriously.

For Chelsea, Millwall is a strong enemy. In the past two seasons, they have not defeated Millwall, and lost most of the games. It is not easy to beat Millwall.

Millwall also attaches great importance to defense, and they are not in a hurry to launch an offensive when they are at home.

The commentator of "Sky Sports" analyzed the reasons and believed that both sides need to prepare for the next UEFA Champions League match, and their performances have to be reserved. In addition, there is another important point, "The game is not important to both parties."

Chelsea ranks third in the league. There is a five-point gap between them and Manchester United. It is not easy to catch up. Even if they catch up with Manchester United, they will still be ahead of Millwall with higher points. There is no chance.

There is no need for Chelsea to fight recklessly with Millwall. From the perspective of league points, winning a victory is no big deal.

Millwall is at the top of the league table. They have six points more than Manchester United, and the advantage is still very large. Facing the pressure of the Champions League, they don't need to fight against Chelsea.

Both sides played conservatively, and the game was very dull.

The fight is not intense, the offense is not active, and the rhythm is a bit slow, the game scene is a bit sleepy.

The media at the scene regretted coming to the interview. What they hoped to see was a fierce scene. As a result, the two teams played such a "peaceful" game, and the cheering and cheering of the fans in the audience stands was much quieter.

Some critical voices came.

Some media said that Chelsea did not take the initiative, "In the past two seasons, they have not defeated Millwall, but Mourinho let Chelsea play such a game. They seem to have no desire to win."

Some media said that Millwall should be more active. "Millwall's starting lineup has several positions as substitutes. It is obvious that they do not pay attention to the game. They should be more active because this is the Neal Stadium."

These critical voices will certainly not affect the game.

Both Mourinho and Zhang Yang are very sensible. They know that the next Champions League is more important. There is no benefit for the two teams to fight each other. They will play against each other normally. As long as it does not affect the Champions League, any result is acceptable.

However, the football game will definitely not be 'peaceful'. The competitive relationship between Chelsea and Millwall is very fierce. Players from both sides will still work hard under the existing tactical framework in the game.

After 10 minutes, the game finally became more intense, the threat of offense increased, and the rhythm of offensive and defensive transitions also accelerated.

This made the fans and audience more spirited.

There was still no goal until the end of the first half. During a halftime break, neither side made any adjustments. The rematch in the second half continued the situation in the first half.

Judging from the game statistics, Millwall's ball possession rate is 50.00% two, and the number of shots is five times. Chelsea's ball possession rate is 40.00% eight, and the number of shots is seven times.

Neither team scored.

It was a [-]-[-] split between the two sides.

After 10 minutes in the second half, the long-awaited goal appeared. It was Chelsea who broke the deadlock first. Drogba received a corner kick from Robben's wing and scored a header past Graham's gate.

1 is better than 0!

The goal got Chelsea supporters excited.

The reporters in the media seats were also very excited, not only because of the goal, but also because it was Chelsea who scored the goal.

In the past two seasons, Chelsea have not beaten Millwall. Now that the game has been played for nearly 10 minutes, Chelsea's lead over Millwall is very good. Beat Millwall' embarrassment.

But Chelsea's excitement only lasted 3 minutes.

Three minutes later, Millwall took advantage of a wave of fast breaks, and Braniff and Vardy once again played an exquisite cooperation. Braniff made a diagonal pass, passed in front of Carvalho, and followed Vardy on the other side. Di, with a shot from the far corner, let the football break Cech's ten fingers.

1 is better than 1!

The media who were excited just now were stunned.

"Millwall quickly tied the score. They only took 3 minutes. Braniff and Vardy cooperated very well..."

"Let's look at the slow motion... Braniff dribbled the ball with his head and hardly looked to the left, but his pass found Vardy accurately. Maybe the two of them practiced countless times off the field. This kind of precise cooperation It's like it's pre-rehearsed!"

"Vardy's shooting angle is very tricky, so Cech has no way..."

In the shouts of the "Sky Sports" commentator, Chelsea fans felt very helpless. They were tied after only 3 minutes ahead.

Next, Chelsea and Millwall had each other's offense and defense, but until the last minute, the two sides still failed to complete the goal.

In the end, the two teams shook hands 1-1.

----

Zhang Yang and Mourinho shook hands after the game.

This is the first formal handshake between the two after they have met formally.

Under the lens of the camera, the two shook hands for more than ten seconds and had a brief conversation. From the screen, both of them had smiles on their faces, and they seemed to be having a good conversation.

But in fact, the words of the two were far from friendly.

"1 to 1, what a pity."

"Indeed, I thought I could win. Of course, the result doesn't matter, we will definitely win the championship."

"You don't have any Chinese modesty in you."

"Thank you for the compliment. By the way, I heard that you are going to leave? It's a pity. It was a tie last time."

"That's not necessarily the case. Maybe the Champions League can still be met. At that time, it's hard to say who will win and who will lose."

"I really hope to meet you, that means there will be no pressure."

"You are too arrogant!"

"Thank you again for your compliment. By the way, I also wish you a smooth journey..." Zhang Yang and Mourinho ended the conversation full of gunpowder.

In fact, Zhang Yang thinks that Mourinho is an opponent worthy of respect. No matter how many shortcomings he has, he has to admit that his leadership level is definitely the top in the world. Because of this, Zhang Yang will not use it. Language 'comfort', that is no different from taunting an opponent.

Mourinho is not someone who needs sympathy.

Even if Mourinho leaves Chelsea, the two will always be rivals in the next few years or more than ten years. From this perspective, it is no big deal for Mourinho to leave Chelsea, but it is just a job change That's all.

On the way out of the Neil Stadium, Zhang Yang suddenly thought that he had so many sighs, and maybe he was quite concerned about Mourinho's departure. Of course Mourinho has nothing to do with him, but as a Premier League coach, there are still some similarities. A lot of.

One day in the future, maybe I will face a similar situation?
But it's no big deal either.

If one day leaves Millwall, it doesn't have to be like the sky is falling. He is not a major shareholder of Millwall, or any other big man, and he is just a paid head coach.

Leaving will be a new beginning.
