The Young Lion

After Trezeguet's goal happened, he ran to the corner flag and closed his eyes to celebrate. His teammates flocked to him. Everyone knew that this goal made a fundamental reversal of the situation. Millwall was at a slight disadvantage. , the score is a tie, everyone is on the same starting line, but Millwall is playing away, so naturally they are at a disadvantage.

But after this goal, Monaco was directly forced into a desperate situation. Even if they scored an equalizer goal at home, it was not enough. On the basis of Millwall's next goal, they still have more Goal!

Seeing the goal, Aldridge took his right hand out of his pocket and made a fist and slammed it in front of him. His eyes were extremely firm and energetic. Other coaches and players were cheering for this goal. They took a solid step towards Amsterdam. !

When the coaching staff was preparing for the game before the game, Aldridge resolutely removed Shevchenko and let Glenshire start. Many coaches didn't understand and thought it was too risky. In the coach's evaluation, It is very intuitive that Glenshire's scoring ability is definitely not as good as Shevchenko, there is no doubt about it.

And even if someone with outstanding personal ability is to be played, the coaching staff tends to let Ronaldinho play, but Aldridge still unswervingly uses Glenshire.

When he wants to use a player, the purpose may not be particularly direct. He needs a player to serve the team tactics, rather than expecting a player to directly dominate the battle after playing.

Ronaldinho's comprehensive assessment of personal ability has surpassed Glenshire, but he is far behind Glenshire in his invisible ability, that is: teamwork and tacit understanding!

In order to produce a team chemical reaction and allow the superposition of the individual abilities of the 11 players to produce an unexpected strength, the tacit understanding of the team is particularly critical.

Like Millwall's smooth offensive coordination and solid defensive line played in the past two seasons, these players have been tempered by playing together for two or three years, especially the continuous offense, the offense of multi-foot passing and running coordination, It takes a long time to play football together to achieve the state of heart-to-heart.

Grenshall did not disappoint Aldridge, not only forcing Monaco's defense to shrink through his personal ability. To make the other side pay attention to his existence, the defense is to distract his side, and to pass the ball decisively when it is time to pass without procrastination. He has performed better than the classical winger in history. He is worthy of today The starter!

After the celebration, Aldridge made a downward gesture towards the players on the field. Even when he scored a goal, he did not show a smile. He just wanted to tell the players: Now is not the time to laugh!

Nedved's position retraces deeper. When counterattacking, plug in at high speed and cooperate with teammates. Mainly to strengthen the defense.

Now Millwall is more determined to play defensive counterattack.

And in terms of rhythm control, they are also more calm.

Now, we can play slowly!

Tigana looked stern after being scored, and he realized at this time: maybe. Overestimated the strength gap between Monaco and Millwall.

Before the semi-final match, he didn't think that Monaco and Millwall were on the same level, and Millwall was stronger. Undoubtedly, if Monaco were in Millwall's group, they would definitely not be able to get a complete victory record. Go to Juventus, maybe go home.

However, the outside world doesn't see it that way.

The Monaco players don't think so either.

Millwall are a young team. It is a strong team composed of a large number of young talents. Monaco does not give up much, and there are many young talents who are appreciated and paid attention to by the outside world.

Moreover, when they played against Manchester United, Manchester United's traditional strong team was even more impressed. And to suppress Millwall in the league, they eliminated Manchester United, should they still be afraid of Millwall?

They played conservatively in the away game, got the draw they wanted, and when they returned home, they naturally had to open up their positions and knock down their opponents.

Tigana rested his forehead in thought. If Monaco had played an absolute defensive and counterattack strategy from the very beginning, even playing conservatively at home, perhaps, the probability of promotion would have been higher, but it was because of the miscalculation of the poor strength of the two teams, When Millwall pushed Monaco to the brink in a more sophisticated way in a more cautious and cautious arena.

Millwall learned from the previous home game, which was too aggressive at the beginning of the game. The away game was extremely low-key, and the tactics were very targeted. The two wingers cut in and compressed the middle. There was a lot of space on the side. At the beginning, Monaco The full-backs are still afraid, but Millwall's full-backs did not make bold assists.

However, Millwall's tactical design must have been premeditated.

Defensive counterattack, attack 4 people.

Defensive counterattack, attack 4 people.

Defensive counterattack, attacking 4 people...

In the first twenty minutes or so, Millwall had such a rhythm, but Millwall suddenly exerted strength!

In the counterattack of the goal, Millwall added a midfielder and a full-back to kill the dangerous area, and it was Capdevila's lap and bottom that attracted the Monaco defense to retreat quickly, and then Pirlo pressed it. The vicinity of the penalty area line made Monaco's defense have to assume the premise again. In this short period of time, there was a fatal loophole in the adjustment of the defense line. Pirlo, a passing master, easily assisted Trezeguet to score.

Tigana turned his head and looked at Aldridge, although he was younger than himself, he was amazed: the Aldridge who watched the European Cup together two years ago, most of the French coaches who have passed their thirties are mostly seniors who look at rising stars Mentality, but the current Aldrich is already more sophisticated than many famous coaches!

Now, Monaco is cornered, and Tigana has only one choice: to attack wildly, to grab wildly!

Let the players press wildly to prevent Millwall from controlling the rhythm of the game, and the crazy attack is to score goals.

There is still an hour of game time left, Monaco will score two goals, there is really no room for slowing down.

In terms of personal ability, Millwall is not weaker than their opponents on every front. Under such circumstances, even if Monaco started to rush, they still have the initiative in the game.

Millwall will not pass the time with boring kicks, but the number of horizontal passes has been increased, so that no matter how Monaco grabs, the center of gravity must be tilted. No matter how fast people are, they cannot run the ball.

Whenever Monaco struggled to enter a period of short-term physical consumption and needed to take a breather, Millwall launched another wave of offensive, playing more threateningly than before!

However, Monaco switched from defense to offense after a successful defense, but was unable to sprint forward at the highest speed immediately due to the scramble. This is right in Millwall's arms, and he is not afraid of the opponent's frontal attack.

The first half ended quickly, and Millwall returned to the dressing room with a one-goal lead.

During the intermission, Aldridge mainly assigned defensive tasks in the second half. With 45 minutes left, they will get tickets to the final. Even if they stick to 45 minutes, it is not a bad idea.

Tigana obviously adjusted the team's tactics during the intermission, and also mobilized the morale of the team.

In the second half, Monaco no longer pursued quickness in the positional battle, but strived to stabilize the rhythm and organize a penetrating offensive through patient footwork.

However, Millwall's defense has strengthened. Nedved has almost become a midfielder. Let Pirlo move forward. He and Makelele defended with double midfielders, switching from defense to offense and Pirlo organized and dispatched forward.

Monaco couldn't penetrate the attack, so they began to frequently try to threaten their opponents with long shots, and at the same time hoped to lure Millwall's defense to press out.

This was foreseen. Millwall is not afraid of the opponent's long-range shots, and his mentality is more stable. If the opponent can really turn around with two world waves, it is really the goddess of luck who has become the opponent's subordinate.

When the game came to the 65th minute, Tigana was also fighting for his life.

He put on a striker, took off a defender, and the offense became simple, rough, and direct!

Thus. The opponent's backcourt was empty, and Millwall saw his tricks. Aldridge replaced Pirlo with Ballack, and played a three-back tactic. When attacking, he relied on two sides to attack.

This is between attack and defense. Monaco's offense began to be threatened. Before the threat area, they used patience to organize the offense and move forward. When they reached within 30 yards of the goal, they could take a long shot to see if they could get an excellent goal in the second attack by luck. The chance of the ball, for example, if Bout makes a save and misses, the striker can make a follow-up shot, or like Juventus did when they played Millwall in the first round, whoever refracts the long-range ball on the way forward depends on luck.

Either Monaco will divide the ball to the wing and make a high pass from 45 degrees, but today the pass obviously cannot threaten Millwall's goal, and Materazzi's air defense is absolutely fine.

Millwall's counterattack was booming, and the threat was getting bigger and bigger. The opponent's formation began to press forward, and the midfield and backcourt were out of touch, giving Millwall a chance to break one by one.

In a counterattack, Glenciel dribbled the ball down the right. As long as the forward outflanked the ball, he could get an excellent opportunity, but Trezeguet was carried by the opponent's central defender and failed to grab the point.

Aldridge saw the crux and replaced Trezeguet with Shevchenko. In terms of speed, Shevchenko was faster than Trezeguet!

This substitution had an immediate effect. As soon as Shevchenko came on the field, Gronkshall took the ball from the right, and the opponent came up to press him from behind. Throwing the ball, Shevchenko inserts into the right rib, and after taking the ball, he rushes forward. He takes the ball towards the penalty area, and the Monaco defender desperately chases it back. On the right side of the penalty area, instead of being greedy for merit and forcing a shot, he crossed the ball to the center. In the counterattack, Larson rushed up from the left.

Barthez abandoned the goal, Larson made a gesture to hit the goal, Barthez was deceived by the center of gravity, Larson made a false shot, and the ball was slanted to the side, past the goalkeeper and faced the empty goal, he easily scored!

Larson killed the game! He calmly swayed past the goalkeeper and scored an empty goal. Millwall led Monaco 2-0 away. With less than 10 minutes left, unless Monaco scored three goals in a row, otherwise They will be kept out of the final!

After Larsson scored, he pointed at Shevchenko with a smile on his face. The two hugged, and then walked to the visiting team fans stand together, each waving an arm.

The Wild Lions fans were excited in the stands, all blushing and waving their arms at Larson, all excited as if they were on steroids.

Aldrich turned around and embraced Jason.

2:0

2:0

We are definitely going to Amsterdam, and we are definitely going to step on the highest stage of the Intercontinental Club competition!

This goal completely made Monaco lose their fighting spirit. It is not impossible to score three goals in less than ten minutes, but the hope is very slim. Especially, if they continue to play like this, they may not be able to stop Millwall's next attack. Waves fight back.

Millwall held back and two minutes later Aldridge stepped up the defense more thoroughly with Gattuso on for Larsson.

In the final minutes of the game, Monaco's offensive was a little weaker. After failing to achieve results, Millwall consumed the last time. ()
