The Young Lion

Thank you Thieves for your reward!

ps: There will be a Super Bowl this morning, and friends who are interested can watch it. I don’t usually watch football, but the Super Bowl is still worth watching. Last year, the super quarterback matchup between the two teams was very exciting, and there were interceptions and counterattack touchdowns. A sky-high creative advertisement, only broadcast once in the world, and may become a classic halftime show——

Everyone in Chelsea understands that if they lose 1:2 at home, they will still not be able to advance to the Lion King Stadium in the next round, even if they perform a miracle in the away game and beat Millwall 1:0!

The red-eyed Chelsea generals understood the seriousness of the situation, and they took a breath and fought hard, but when time was running out, their overall formation could not be kept tight and consistent.

When the last minute of stoppage time came, Schneider played a mid-to-long-distance pass from the side of the backcourt. The ball flew to the middle of the midfield. Nedved rushed forward and headed the ball. Luo stopped the ball in the frontcourt. He dribbled forward and accelerated while throwing away Essien. Essien's up and down; no; wrong; Luo completed the breakthrough.

After completing the pass, the situation in the front field suddenly became open. Ronaldinho simply and directly kicked the ball over the top. Larson, who came off the bench, cut inside from the right and entered the penalty area, completely throwing off Chelsea's entire defense!

But Larson's stop was not perfect, and when he fully controlled the ball, he had already reached a position close to the bottom line.

The veteran has a calm mind and will not act too hastily.

Instead, Chelsea's defenders flocked to grab Henry, outflanking the center. On the other side, Cristiano Ronaldo was followed closely by Chelsea players. There was a crowd in front of Chelsea.

When Terry and Ashley Cole came to press. Larson passed the ball to the top of the penalty area.

Ronaldinho, who followed up, faced the ball and shot angrily!

The ball didn't have the effect of blasting the world wave, but it bounced into Chelsea's goal after hitting Carvalho's leg and refracting it!

Cech himself jumped in the right direction, but Carvalho stretched his legs to block, and God was powerless!

After scoring the goal, Ronaldinho took off his jersey and ran towards the corner flag area. All Millwall players rushed over, and Aldridge also left the coach's bench and ran away!

At Stamford Bridge, there was dead silence in the stands of the home fans, while the fans of the visiting team were slightly excited.

3:1. Millwall got a very good result away. We can understand why Sir Hall celebrated when Ronaldinho scored the team's third goal.

Not only was it a blow to the morale of the mortal enemy, but he also deeply understood that the score of 3:1 was enough to kill Chelsea! Unless Chelsea can score at least 3 goals at the Lion King Stadium! Even if Chelsea beat Millwall 2-0 in the next round, they will be eliminated!

Millwall celebrated the goal close to the fans' stand of the visiting team. After Aldrich hugged and celebrated with the players, he kept raising his hands to signal the Wild Lions fans to create more momentum!

Come some more!

Bigger!

Tell Stamford Bridge. Who is the king of London!

After Chelsea's re-kick-off, Millwall defended their attacking wave. The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

The first round of the Champions League quarter-finals came to an end. Millwall defeated Chelsea 3:1 at Stamford Bridge, stepping into the threshold of the semi-finals with one foot.

After the game, Aldridge and Mourinho still did not shake hands.

In an interview, Aldridge and Mourinho tacitly expressed their views on the same issue.

Mourinho insisted that the referee changed the trend of the game. Kaka's goal should not be awarded a penalty. It was because of the goal that Chelsea was at an absolute disadvantage. In his opinion, they conceded the goal first. Not enough to determine the overall trend of the game.

Aldridge criticized Mourinho's words and deeds.

My player was violated and then injured. Even if I watched the video a hundred times, it would definitely be a foul. The penalty kick was undisputed, but the Chelsea coach accused my player of diving, which is unreasonable. Millwall will also lose and face unfavorable situations, but when we lose, we will not use slander to shirk responsibility. When we were eliminated in the League Cup, did we say anything? We lost to Lever in Germany I applauded Leverkusen when they played better than us. Their fighting spirit was stronger than ours in that game. Our attitude towards the game is not only to work hard to win the game, but also to win the respect of the opponent , obviously, the situation is reversed today, we have been treated with a lack of respect, so we should express our dissatisfaction!

When Fleet Street commented on this game, it faintly began to draw conclusions about Chelsea's performance this season, as well as the results of Chelsea's construction in this phase.

Barnes wrote in a column comment: Chelsea has completed a major change this season. In fact, such changes are too frequent for a club. Their main lineup last season was a combination of old and new. But this season, Another large-scale replacement was carried out. Only counting the cost of signings, Chelsea paid a price of more than 300 million pounds. If player signing fees, salaries, bonuses and other expenses are included, in two years, Chelsea's team building lineup , invested close to 500 million pounds!

However, Chelsea is still unable to shake Millwall's dominance, which is not far from the goal of the Russian rich man Abramovich, yes, not far!

The league trails Millwall by 4 points. If it hadn’t been for Millwall in the Champions League, Chelsea would have the strength to make people believe that they can go further. If they will complete the comeback in the second round of the Champions League, then that game will definitely be One of the most shocking games in the Champions League in the past ten years, because no one except Chelsea fans believed that they could beat the king Millwall away.

Back to the topic, we can foresee the future positioning of Chelsea. It is impossible for them to complete a new major change next season or two years later. This is against the rules of football club management because the cost is too high. Lose Wolves, otherwise Chelsea will burn more than 1 billion pounds in two or three years, and he will become the laughing stock of the football circle. If there is a next blood exchange. Who can guarantee that Chelsea can turn a step away from the goal into a positive result? This is the cruelty of competitive sports. The runner-up and the champion are only a little bit short, but that little distance is that one is on the throne and the other is forgotten by the world, almost not much different from other losers.

Moreover, if Chelsea continues to change blood on a large scale, it will cause great damage to Chelsea's image, and Chelsea will change blood. It is necessary to deal with the current players in the team, then, the things that are hotly discussed by the outside world become reality: Chelsea is Abramovich's toy, and even the players are also toys.

They can be lured by money, or they can be swept away by the disappointment of their bosses.

So, how many players in the world are willing to go to Chelsea?

The Chelsea management of Wolves understand that they have entered a stable construction track, the stability of the player lineup, and the stability of the club's development direction.

This is undoubtedly good news for Millwall.

After suppressing Chelsea this season, they have built enough confidence. I wrote about it in a column before the season even started. The biggest test for Millwall is just this season. Once the rule is overthrown by Chelsea, the future Premier League will become very chaotic, not as orderly as before, because there is a ruler here: wild lion.

The outside world's criticism of Chelsea coach Mourinho is unfair. Indeed, Mourinho is a topical figure. He has caused a lot of controversy, including the public remarks made by eliminating Barcelona. He dislikes many people, but aside After Yun withers, you will find that he has become a controversial figure with his personal prominence, and then put all the pressure on his shoulders. Otherwise, Chelsea would not be able to chase Millwall so steadily in the Premier League.

If we look back at Sir Hall's coaching career, we will find that he is similar to Mourinho. In the early days of his coaching, take his coaching debut game as an example. As soon as he appeared, he had a verbal conflict with the opponent coach , and then make himself stand out. In the eleventh year of coaching, Sir Hall has stopped doing this, not because he has become noble, but because he does not need anyone to make any noise, he is the focus, all There are countless pairs of eyes in the world watching him, or worshiping him, or expecting his failure in his heart, watching him make a fool of himself.

This can't help but make me feel a little sorry for Mourinho. If he started coaching ten years ago and he and Sir Hall met in the arena, I am afraid that the two young coaches will not have such an obvious gap now. It's not too long to ignore that Mourinho has actually taken up the coach, nor can it ignore the experience Sir Hall has accumulated in the past more than a decade.

The current Millwall is like Manchester United in the 96/97 season. Manchester United's class of 92 had just provoked the mainstay. Under the leadership of Cantona, they had just won the Premier League championship. That will change the development trajectory of Millwall. However, Manchester United failed to suppress Millwall. Now, it is Millwall's turn to suppress Chelsea. The final result of this season will have a huge impact on the future Premier League structure. Chelsea only won An insignificant League Cup, the FA Cup was eliminated early, and the Champions League is now at a critical moment. I personally think that Chelsea should set the final goal in the league and make the final sprint. At the end of this month, Stamford Bridge will usher in the league final .

Miracles need to be fought for. If Chelsea can stage a miracle in the league this season, then this miracle will have a positive impact on them for at least 5 years!

Already at the end of the season, this column by Barnes is a bit outdated in Aldridge's mind. Before the start of the season, although he told the Millwall players not to be disturbed by the outside world, the goal is to surpass themselves.

But he knows very well in his heart that one of the goals of this season is to suppress Chelsea!

Because Chelsea has great potential!

Their lineup has not reached its peak strength, and there are many reasons for a team to advance by leaps and bounds, one of which is success!

Failure is the mother of success?

It may be right to put it elsewhere. In the football circle, there are not many examples of shame and courage, but most teams are stable and strong, and they all come from success, not failure.

Failure will catalyze the explosion of many hidden negative factors. On the contrary, success will inject stimulant into a team.

Can't let Chelsea hold its head up! (to be continued...)
