The Young Lion

In the Stade de France, the Wild Lions fans in the stands observed that all Chelsea players shrank to their own half after the opening, and immediately showed merciless ridicule.

Here we go again!

Take the bus!

Is it over?

Perhaps this kind of emotion is also felt by the players on the Millwall field. Facing Chelsea again, the opponent puts up a bus formation, which in itself is easy to make the players fall into a state of madness: it seems that the opponent completely regards football as a job!

Putting on sneakers, changing into jerseys, and coming to the green field is just to meet the work performance standards, and people cannot experience the fun from it.

If, on every football field in the world, the teams fighting against each other were like this, would football still be the number one sport in the world?

But the maturity of Millwall players is that they can be undisturbed, concentrate on the game, be themselves, and ignore their opponents.

At least they firmly believe that such utilitarian football as Chelsea will be punished!

Aldridge looked slightly dignified on the sidelines.

In the past two years, he has indeed had an absolute advantage in the match against Mourinho. He has not lost a single game and only drew one game.

However, in a certain sense, in the continuous confrontation, it gave Mourinho to correct and improve the team, especially in the study of how to deal with Millwall. Mourinho's personal experience is the best source of experience.

Chelsea has strengthened the midfield. In the Premier League itself, their midfield is very strong. The 433 3 midfielders must be hard and hard, and there are also points to hide the attack. Lampard is particularly brilliant in scoring.

Now, from 3 to 4. This improvement is not a simple increase in numbers. Accompanied by the further compression of the space on the court. The chain reaction generated by the defensive connection between teammates, the defense density, and perhaps the improvement is in terms of doubling the efficiency!

In the past, when Chelsea counterattacked, the two wings flew together, and the center and Lampard stepped in behind. At least 4 players were involved in the attack.

Today, only one of Lampard and Ballack should come forward, which also improves the efficiency and unpredictability of the back-up. But the offense, the absolute number of people on the offensive should be reduced by one, that is to say, a stable defense will be composed of at least 7 people!

This makes it impossible for Millwall to capture better opportunities even if Chelsea's counterattack is killed by fast break or counterattack. Maybe the whole game is attacking,

Attack, attack!

After opening. Because of the final, Millwall played extremely steadily. According to their familiar rhythm, the whole team entered the same track, and then began to exert attacking pressure on Chelsea.

But they didn't expect Chelsea to put on such a powerful and muscular midfielder today.

Ballack, Lampard, Essien, Makelele.

Moreover, these four midfielders are not in a frantic siege posture. Outside the 40-yard area in front of the goal, Millwall is allowed to pass the ball at will. When they step into the 40-yard area, they will go crazy on the basis of zone defense. scrambling.

Millwall tried to seduce the opponent with a passing organization. Ronaldinho returned the ball after touching the ball twice in a dangerous area, trying to make the Chelsea players chase the ball away when their brains were hot, but they failed.

If Millwall is rational to cold, then Chelsea's defensive posture today is as cold as steel!

When there is no possession of the ball, Chelsea retreats to the forty-yard area to defend eight players!

Drogba and Robben stood on the outside in the rib area of ​​the middle, and harassed when the ball came, but they didn't waste their physical energy to chase the ball blindly.

In the dense defensive area, Chelsea's side is really overcrowded.

Millwall's trident in the frontcourt and Kaka in the front midfielder alone, it is difficult to cooperate in front of Chelsea's penalty area.

It is conceivable that the number of opponents is twice that of our own, how narrow the passing line will be, the running space, and the ball possession space are relatively narrower.

Even if Alonso comes up, this will not improve much, because the sense of attacking layering must be maintained.

Ronaldinho and Ronaldo began to try for personal breakthroughs. They were relatively easy to perform on the wing, but Chelsea also learned to be smart and would not rush to help defend the wing.

On the sidewalk outside the penalty area, how they want to break through, whatever!

But if you want to cut in or enter the middle, you can't succeed!

Ronaldinho tried to disrupt the opponent's defensive system by cutting the ball inside twice, but was finally caught by the opponent and successfully intercepted the ball!

There are too many defenders at the front of Chelsea's penalty area. This encirclement is very three-dimensional.

In the 19th minute of the game, Ronaldinho tried again to break through from the left to the center. His condition today was average. He just got rid of Essien, but he didn't continue to control the ball. Ballack looked back at the right time and cut into Ronaldinho. Break the ball in front of you, and then immediately divide the ball.

Ferreira stepped forward to control the ball. Chelsea's two full-backs today still will not take the initiative to attack, but only undertake the task of supporting the side in the counterattack.

Ferreira dribbled forward two steps, and at the same time Robben ran forward to find a space, Ferreira passed the ball straight to Robben in the frontcourt.

Peter Pan turned around with the ball, dexterously dribbled the ball past Alonso's press, and continued to stride forward with the ball.

De Rossi didn't intend to go out to grab the ball at Robben's feet, but steadily slowed down the opponent's rhythm.

But Robben also unconventionally does not dribble forward, but dribbles horizontally. This is the most commonly used tactic by Millwall this season to disrupt the opponent's defense with the player's personal ability.

Robben shakes the angle, Drogba runs forward, Nesta and Silva are on guard against Drogba, Schneider enters the restricted area and waits for Robben's attack.

Robben, who has been criticized by the media countless times for playing football too independently, found a shooting angle and took a long shot by himself!

To be honest, the shooting angle is not great!

But the ball flew from the area between Schneider and Nesta to the center of the goal!

It didn't look like this was a shot that would worry Wild Lions fans, it was quite powerful, but the angle was a bit positive.

According to visual inspection, it is slightly above the left side of Bout's body.

However, at the moment Bout received the ball, the pupils of Aldridge on the sidelines shrank.

boom!

Bout reacted as if the ball flew in front of his eyes, and raised his hand just to block the ball!

The ball bounced in the penalty area!

A second later, the ball flew to the goal again!

Straight into the nest!

Chelsea striker Didier Drogba ran along the sidelines roaring!

There was a burst of blue ripples in the stands, which belonged to Chelsea's blue, not Millwall's blue.

Wow! Millwall goalkeeper Bute made a major mistake! This ball, this ball, Robben's long-range shot is full of power, the ball is very fast, it is a shot with a small arc, but Bute misjudged it , it can be clearly seen that when the ball flew, his body was tilted in the wrong direction, and then he realized that his judgment was wrong, and he blocked the ball hastily, but was snatched by Drogba who followed up Sta and Silva put the ball into the goal! Chelsea lead Millwall 1-0!

The madman Mourinho may not have completely released the passion in his heart since he arrived in London until today, until this moment!

With a ferocious face, he clenched his right hand and waved it heavily, the sharp eyes seemed to swallow everything!

Aldridge still held his chin up, his expression unchanged, although there was actually a hint of anger in his eyes.

bout!

Maybe it is really impossible to stick to the starting goalkeeper position of Millwall, a super giant.

Maybe it was the big game against Liverpool a few days ago that made him over-focused, but he couldn't recover today.

It is no exaggeration to say that the role that most tests concentration and patience is the goalkeeper.

Long-term mental tension and high concentration are also a huge drain.

But at this moment, Aldrich couldn't show any complaints about Bout.

That will only make Bout's next performance even worse!

On the Millwall bench, there is only one Pagliuca who will officially retire after today's game!

It's not that Bout didn't concentrate enough, it's just that he made a mistake in his prediction, and he knew exactly what happened at that moment.

First of all, Robben suddenly kicked a long shot, which was an accident and unexpected.

Secondly, in the area of ​​Robben's long-range shot, Robben dribbled from the right side of the front field to the left side, and then used his best left foot long-range shot.

I am in this area, and I should deal with long-range shots. Whenever I hit an arc, it should be an inspin ball that rotates to the left of the goal, because most players are right-footed players.

But Robben is a left-footed player, and the inspin ball he hits is to the right of the goal!

Butt's first move was that he didn't judge the direction of the ball's rotation accurately. In addition, the ball was fast. When he reacted, he could only reach out to block it, not catch it.

Fortunately, there is still plenty of time left for Millwall. Although they conceded a goal first, the players on the Millwall field were not affected in the slightest. They were ready to kick off while the Chelsea team was still celebrating.

Aldridge gestured on the sidelines, allowing the two full-backs to step forward to support and support more.

Millwall must increase midfield support points!

Mourinho bent down on the sidelines and applauded the team, telling them to wake up to 12 points, and don't let down your vigilance because the score is leading!

At this moment, all the generals of Chelsea are united as one and firmly implement Mourinho's tactics. They firmly believe that today is a day to break the tradition!

That's right, in the eyes of Chelsea people, losing to Millwall, Millwall ruling England, dominating Europe, and sitting high on the throne is already a tradition!

The fighting spirit of the Chelsea generals has firm eyes and is bound to create a new European football pattern!

First of all, it is King Killing!

How could Millwall sit idly by?

Their fighting spirit exploded as well. After the re-kick-off, the players strengthened their running, and they were even more unwilling to show weakness in physical confrontation. It seemed like a lion started to run wildly, roaring loudly!

In terms of courage, Millwall will certainly not lose to Chelsea.

But Aldridge frowned on the sidelines.

To break down Chelsea's defensive barriers and break through their bus formation.

Courage is not enough! (To be continued..)
