The Young Lion

Millwall maintained a complete victory in the first four rounds of the group stage, scoring 16 goals and only conceding 3 goals. This data alone tops the 24 teams participating in the Champions League this season.

Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid and other teams that are also unstoppable in other groups are not as popular as this lion from London.

Maybe the outside world is expecting good results from the traditional tycoons, but a recruit like Millwall can stand out from the crowd in the death group, and the sensation it creates is absolutely shocking.

The fiery Larson has also jumped into the ranks of top stars.

In fact, during the transfer period every year, whether in summer or winter, among the secret offers Millwall receives, Larson is the most. Judging from the name of the buying club, it can reflect that Larson's level has risen.

Manchester United has been tirelessly pursuing Larsson.

Outside of England, first-tier Italian clubs are also pursuing him, but in the summer of this season, names such as Milan, Barcelona, ​​Inter Milan, Paris Saint-Germain, etc. appeared in the buying clubs. After the battle with Barcelona, ​​​​these names Real Madrid was added to it.

The giants all over Europe want Larson, which reflects his value invisibly.

Galliani wanted Larson to wear a red and black jersey to shoulder the important task of Milan's revival. Moratti was dreaming of the combination of Ronaldo and Larson, two super strikers. Sanz invited Larson to the Bernabeu to continue The battle against Barcelona

It is impossible to sell someone in the winter, which will disrupt the plan for the second half of the season. Aldridge doesn't know what Larson thinks. But he wouldn't go to the players to talk about it in the first place.

The news from Andrew is good. Larson's reaction to the invitation from the giants was relatively flat.

The Swedish national team missed the Euro 96. Seeing that the tickets for the 98 World Cup may not be available, Larson knows that his chances of winning honors in the national team are slim, and even the chances of appearing in international competitions are pitifully rare. At the golden age of 26, he can only Only by working harder to win honors in the club can one's achievements be even greater.

Millwall is a team built by Aldridge for three and a half years. Its strength is on the rise and its future is promising. Just when the results were about to come out, Larson had no reason to choose to leave.

It was less than five o'clock in the foggy morning, and Aldrich had already got up, put on his sportswear, put a Walkman in his pocket, and planned to listen to music and go jogging for fitness in the morning.

As soon as he went out, he found that there was movement in the neighbor's house across the street.

The door of the room was wide open, and Ivan, who was dressed in pure white sportswear, had almost the same equipment as Aldrich. She was putting the earplugs in her ears when she saw Aldrich standing at the door of the house. She walked over and asked with a smile, Exercise?

Aldridge looked her up and down, his curvy and graceful figure was beautifully set off by the sportswear, the ponytail tied up showed youthful vigor, and the bare face added a natural beauty.

Um, workout. Together?

Let's go.

The two jogged along the sidewalk of the block under the faintly bright sky, and ran all the way into a nearby park, chatting casually on the road, and when the morning light was bright, the two had breakfast outside, and then returned home, said goodbye, turned around, and drove separately Head to the club to start the day.

Even though Aldridge has been hailed as England's legendary young marshal by Fleet Street, his legend is nothing more than the age factor and has nothing to do with achievements.

People are expecting him to stage the myth of the green shade and lead the team to create unprecedented brilliance.

But he himself is still sober, and he is nothing until he gets the honor.

The clock ticked and Millwall went head-to-head in the league and in Europe.

In the fifth round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Millwall faced Dynamo Kyiv at Wembley. For Dynamo Kiev, who are 5 points behind Millwall in points, a draw also means being out. Even if they win, the group leader Hope is also very slim.

But if they win two games, the points will reach 12 points, and they hope to fight for the second place in the group to advance to the knockout round.

However, at Wembley, Millwall did not give Dynamo Kyiv any chance. Aldridge fought with all the main force and sent Dynamo Kyiv away with the same score, 2:0.

Millwall won all five games, and while the points reached 15 points, it also confirmed the top spot in the group.

In the last round of the group stage, they were a guest at Eindhoven. The Dutch champions had already been eliminated, but it was a battle of honor. They played extremely unrestrainedly at home, and Millwall sent a substitute to come on.

The new aid Gudjohnsen, who was transferred in the summer, can finally play the game after half a year of recuperation and recovery.

Aldridge did as he wished, and played him in this game against PSV. The Icelanders are still bitter about being sent out by PSV. This game, Millwall fought back defensively. , Gudjohnsen and Ruud van Nistelrooy served as double forwards, the scene was wonderful, but the score made PSV very depressed.

2:4.

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Gudjohnsen both scored twice, and the latter celebrated wildly at home in Eindhoven, as if the revenge had been avenged!

The UEFA Champions League group stage has come to an end. Millwall has won all six games and advanced to the knockout round. The offensive and defensive performance of scoring 22 goals and conceding 5 goals shocked Europe!

In other groups, An Pang was very depressed. His Parma fell on the defending champion Dortmund. Dortmund scored 15 points and advanced strongly.

Manchester United beat Juventus and advanced to the knockout round with 15 points.

Not surprisingly, Real Madrid took the top spot in a relatively weak group.

Relying on a better defense, Bayern Munich beat Paris Saint-Germain with the same points to advance with a goal difference advantage.

Tigana, who lamented his good draw three months ago, got what he wanted. Although Monaco got the first place in the group by goal difference, even if the goal difference is at a disadvantage, they can still be compared in the second place in the group. directly into the knockout round.

In the second place in the six groups, Leverkusen and Juventus won the remaining two promotion places.

Eight teams. The German team accounted for three. In addition to the German champion and runner-up last season. Dortmund also entered the Champions League as the defending champion, which makes the German team look particularly strong this year, especially since they all broke out of the group stage.

The eight teams all come from the five major leagues. In addition to Germany being the strongest, the champions and runners-up of the Premier League also advanced to the quarter-finals. The remaining three teams were the champions of their respective leagues last season.

There is no doubt that although this year's Champions League has expanded, it has come to the knockout round. Its intensity is unimaginable. The champions of the five major leagues gather for the quarter-finals, the Champions Cup, the Champions Cup, and the well-deserved championship stage.

December 22.

The Golden Globe Awards.

Aldridge did not participate in this feast, because the Premier League drove fast, and he wanted to lead the team to train and play games.

Two Millwall players were put on leave to attend the ceremony, Nedved and Larsson.

When the voting results were announced, there was thunderous applause.

Larson defeated the alien Ronaldo by an extremely narrow margin and was elected Mr. Golden Globe!

Larsson and Nedved hugged long before he took the stage to accept the award. When holding Nedved, Larson's eyes were moist.

Nedved congratulated in his ear and had to urge him to come to the stage to accept the award.

The first thing Larson said after winning the Golden Globe was: This Golden Globe belongs to the entire Millwall team!

The second sentence is: If I hadn't met Coach Aldrich Hall. i'm sure i won't be standing here

In this year's Ballon d'Or final voting list, the third place is the striker Mijatovic of last season's La Liga champion team, the fourth place is Juventus' Zidane, and the fifth place is Nedved, followed by Bergkamp.

South-east London, the community radiated by Millwall, all fans were excited at the moment when the Golden Globes were announced.

We have Mr Golden Ball at Millwall!

This will bring Millwall's popularity to a higher level, and Aldridge's reputation has also skyrocketed.

Young Marshal, you have trained a Mr. Golden Ball!

This is a big stimulus for the Millwall players.

The young players aspire to reach the pinnacle that Larson has reached!

This year's Christmas game, fans of Manchester United and Millwall are blessed.

The two teams will usher in a confrontation between the first group of teams at Old Trafford.

A month after Millwall beat Barcelona in the fourth round of the Champions League, they can already devote more energy to the league.

They have performed well in the past few games. They only drew one game in the league, and won all the others. Come two League Cup semi-finals against Middlesbrough.

Going to Old Trafford, Aldridge's lineup lacks Nedved and Larsson, and the two have a week's vacation.

Christmas is here, and it's time to test the team again.

At Old Trafford, Ferguson took the initiative to shake hands in front of Aldridge before the game, and said calmly: Congratulations, you have cultivated a Mr. Golden Ball. This achievement is very remarkable. It seems that Manchester United cannot have it. It's Larson's chance.

Aldrich shook his head and said: There is also some element of luck. Dortmund won the Champions League last season. Sammer won the Ballon d'Or last year. This year the judges will no longer favor defensive players. Ronaldo went to Inter Milan again without the Champions League. But, Larson happened to be very eye-catching last month, which added a lot of impression points to him, if not, the Golden Globe Award must still belong to Ronaldo.

What are you thinking about? Your player has won the Ballon d'Or, just be happy.

Aldridge lowered his head and smiled slightly, then nodded and said: Yes, it's right to be happy, and don't think about other things.

It's me and you competing for the championship again this year. Are you confident that you will succeed in defending your title?.

What do you say?

Hehe, have a drink after the game?

Is the agreed 82 Lafite ready?.

It's been in my thermostat for a long time.

After talking with Aldridge, Ferguson and Aldridge separated, then Ferguson sat on the coach's bench, and Aldridge stood on the sidelines.

Players from both sides entered the field in an orderly manner.

Aldridge asked Lampard to replace Nedved today. Ballack seems to have lost his form at the beginning of the season. He has not recovered in the past month. Aldridge was really worried about Ballack during the holidays. At least Lampard can adapt to the Christmas Express better than foreign players psychologically. Let's see in the game what level he can show.

After regaining his health, Gudjohnsen replaced Larsson in the game. The Icelandic has no problem with his strength. He represented Eindhoven in the Champions League more than two years ago. If it weren't for the incompetence of the Eindhoven team doctor, Millwall would have Can't find this cheap one off the shelf.

Manchester United have been a little too strong recently.

Millwall remained unbeaten and only drew one game. As a result, Manchester United won all of them, and they all won by big scores. They didn't win 3 or 4 opponents. It seems that they are sorry for the name of the Red Devils.

This widened the points gap between the two teams to three points.

Today's game is undoubtedly a six-point battle.

Will decide the Premier League half champion! (to be continued...) ()
