The Young Lion

The Lions Den stadium is full of laughter and laughter, and the Wild Lions fans are singing leisurely in the stands. There are only 3 minutes of stoppage time left before the end of the game. After the referee blows his whistle, Millwall's journey in the Premier League this season will be drawn. Full stop, only the FA Cup final is left in the domestic competition, and that has nothing to do with them. Therefore, on this last home match day, the fans are happy and relaxed. As long as Manchester United does not win the championship at their home court, any other results are acceptable.

Manchester United pressed the attack across the board to no avail, but was counterattacked by Millwall before the end. Van Nistelrooy got the ball in the frontcourt and pretended to pass the ball. Stam was cheated. After passing by, he looked devastated: there is no chance.

Van Nistelrooy moved forward with the ball and found that Stam was not chasing him, so the speed began to drop, as if to maximize the certainty of this shot.

Schmeichel stepped forward and slowly expanded the defensive area step by step. He was careful to prevent the opponent from hanging the goal.

Aldridge had already stood up and was about to blow the whistle for the end of the game. When he saw Ruud Van Nistelrooy slowing down and not shooting, his whole body seemed to be in a state of entanglement. Aldridge turned back and gestured to the coaching staff: This kid suddenly think about life!

Perhaps Ruud van Nistelrooy thought he would score a hat-trick against Manchester United when he scored this goal, so he even wanted to send the ball into the opponent's goal accurately.

When he finished thinking about kicking, someone squeezed his body from behind and poked the ball to Schmeichel.

The Lions Den stadium sighed, and the fans shook their heads silently in the stands.

You think too much!

Just shoot casually, it doesn't matter if you don't score!

Ruud van Nistelrooy stabilized his body after losing the ball, turned his head and saw that the person who stole him was not Stam, but an unexpected person: Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The rest of Manchester United's players gave up. Stam, who was closest to the ball, was also passed by Van Nistelrooy when he was in a hurry to grab the ball. After pulling away, he looked at his gate numbly.

But one person did not give up, baby-faced Solskjaer, from the moment Manchester United's attack failed, he desperately returned to defense. When Van Nistelrooy took the ball, he had already run close to the center line. Originally, as long as Van Nistelrooy played normally, it was impossible for Solskjaer to steal the ball from behind, but his brain suddenly crashed and missed the hat-trick. Chance.

Aldridge applauded from the sidelines. His applause is for Solskjaer, the game can be lost, but the will cannot be broken!

But Solskjaer's defense only allowed United to avoid a fourth goal.

When Schmeichel kicked the ball forward and was headed back by Lampard,

The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

At the end of the game, Millwall beat Manchester United 3:1 at home, and the first leg of the league clash at Old Trafford. Millwall lost to Manchester United 2:4, but after half a season ended In the war, Millwall also defeated Manchester United by two goals, and this defeat was extremely heavy for Manchester United. The game at Villa Park Stadium has ended. Aston Villa defeated the leader Arsenal 1-0 at home. , Manchester United actually only need a draw to regain the championship trophy. But they failed to achieve it. They have the same points as the opponent, but the goal difference is at a disadvantage, so they are ranked third. Like Manchester United, they are only 1 point behind the new Premier League champion Arsenal. In the third season of the Premier League, Millwall refreshed the league ranking A new low record, they only won the third place in the league, the runner-up in the first year. The champion in the second year, hehe, Hall's team is in danger, because if they can't beat Real Madrid in the Champions League final to win the championship, then next season. They Will miss the Champions League, this may be his punishment, who makes him the person that the head coaches of the Premier League teams don’t like? In the past three years in the Premier League, Millwall has either won the championship or sniped the champion. Aspirations, both Newcastle United and Manchester United have suffered from him, but Manchester United should at least remember that if Hall's team hadn't defeated Newcastle United two years ago, they might not have achieved a big comeback to win the championship. 97/98 season All 380 games in the Premier League are over. Congratulations to Arsenal. The Frenchman Arsene Wenger has fulfilled his promise. He has given Arsenal a new look. The giants that once ruled English football have regained their dream of being champions. This is a good sign. I believe that the Premier League next season The competition for the championship will be more intense. If Liverpool can work harder, the Premier League will undoubtedly become extremely exciting. My friends, we are looking forward to the Premier League next season, and we also wish England a successful World Cup trip in France.

After the game, Aldridge went to shake hands with Ferguson, and the Scottish old man shook hands with him in a hurry and then left.

Replica Premier League trophies were also taken away.

The FA really thank Millwall from the bottom of their hearts for attacking Manchester United at home.

It doesn't hurt that the Premier League trophy at Lions Den is a replica.

However, those important people among the FA awards presenters all went to Villa Park Stadium. No one thought that Arsenal would lose weight in the away game. If Manchester United really drew with Millwall or reversed, the FA would be in a very serious situation. In an embarrassing situation, at least the guests who presented the awards to Manchester United are some people who are not enough.

The Manchester United players quickly left the pitch, and after walking into the tunnel, Neville kicked the wall unwillingly...

Aldridge clapped his hands above his head on the pitch, then walked to each stand in a gesture of admiration to the fans.

The players are also leaving early after thanking the fans. Their season is not over yet, and everything has to be done step by step.

There was nothing to say in the post-match press conference, but a reporter asked maliciously: Manchester United and Arsenal, does Millwall want to see Arsenal win the championship?

Aldridge replied without thinking: I would rather see Millwall win the championship.

But Millwall has no chance of winning the title.

Then you mean, we should release water to Manchester United?

...

The Fleet Street reporters cast contemptuous glances at the Mirror pal.

Millwall hasn't released the water yet?

They are all on the bench, and the main force is not on. How do you think about releasing water?

They are going to play in the Champions League final, and they are afraid that Manchester United will be red-eyed to prevent the main players from being injured. It is also to recharge your batteries. Everyone understands that Manchester United's failure to win the game has nothing to do with Millwall, but the striker is not strong. The golden midfielder provides enough fire support, but the striker can't grasp the opportunity, which is his own problem.

After finishing the press conference, Aldridge drove home.

Back at home, he sat on the sofa to rest, took out his mobile phone, and sent Wenger a congratulatory text message.

After sending the text message, put the phone aside. He lay sideways on the sofa and turned on the TV, but his eyes were unfocused.

The performance of the team throughout the season comes to mind.

He needs to summarize and reflect.

This season Millwall is fighting on four fronts, the overall number of games is similar to last season, and the performance is not bad on the basis of rotation. There are two key reasons for the failure of defending the title. One is that various teams use buses to attack Millwall. . The second is that the strategy of playing the weak with the weak ended in failure in the first half of the season, losing many points that should not be lost.

While he was thinking, his phone vibrated suddenly. It was a text message. He thought Wenger was texting him back, but when he picked it up, it was not at all. Wenger estimated that he was celebrating passionately with the players at this moment.

The text message was sent by Moyes. He led Preston to a new look in the second half of the season. At the end of the first half, Preston fell into the relegation zone. In the second half of the season, under the leadership of Moyes, he not only got out of the relegation zone , and even reached the promotion play-offs at the end of the season. Several players on loan performed very well in Preston. Moyes invited Aldridge to watch the game and watch them Preston upgrade play-offs. game finals.

Aldrich thought for a while, but still politely rejected the other party. He declined the invitation on the grounds of preparing for the Champions League.

Multiple friends and multiple paths, especially building a good relationship with the head coaches of other clubs, will help Millwall's future loan players to exercise.

The Premier League season commentary began to be broadcast on TV. Arsenal, who won the championship, was the focus, and Chelsea was second only to Arsenal. Chelsea, ranked fifth in the league, has made a huge leap this season. Not only has it refreshed the highest ranking in the Premier League, it has also been runner-up in the League Cup and reached the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup.

As for Manchester United and Millwall, they are both lamented and lamented roles. What is numbing is Liverpool, which is like this every year, ranking third or fourth in the league steadily...

The number of goals scored by the top scorer in the Premier League has reached a new low this year. 18 goals can win the Golden Boot, and four people have won the award. Those who scored 18 goals were Dublin, Sutton, and Owen!

In the selection of individual awards, Millwall is relatively bleak this year, except for Larson's Golden Boot.

ding dong

Doorbell rang.

Aldridge got up to open the door, and Yiwen appeared at the door with a sweet smile, and said with a smile, Didn't you eat?

Aldrich nodded, not very interested.

Yiwen walked in and said, I'll call the restaurant to deliver the food, wait a minute, and I'll be able to eat within an hour.

Aldrich looked at the clock on the wall, and asked strangely: How do you know I haven't eaten at this time?

Because you can't eat, you have something on your mind.

Aldridge leaned against the wall with his arms crossed, tilted his head and asked with a smile, What's the matter?

The team will play in the Champions League next season.

Aldridge shook his head helplessly, and she really got it right.

Millwall only ranks third in the league. If they fail to win the Champions League, they will have to play in the UEFA Cup next season. This will undoubtedly greatly reduce the confidence of Millwall to keep players.

Hey, don't think about it, wait for dinner, Brady and the others asked us to go out for a drink at night.

Aldridge sat down, put aside his troubles for a while, and joked: I hope I don't run into Arsenal fans when I go out to drink at night.

Yiwen said indifferently: It's best to meet a few, I really want to see the Arsenal fans look proud.

Aldrich said with a strange expression: What kind of mentality is this?

It's a normal mentality. I don't know when Arsenal's championship parade will be. It's better to be later, after the 20th.

Fuck, don't lose your character, okay?

What's the meaning?

Guess for yourself.

While chatting with Ivan while waiting for dinner, Aldridge quickly adjusted his mood. He knew that in the face of the Champions League final, all factors other than the game should not become his troubles, otherwise it would not be conducive to the team's preparation and the game play.

The other teams are on holiday, but the three teams in London are still in a state of intense preparation.

Arsenal are playing in the FA Cup final.

Chelsea are playing in the European Cup Winners' Cup final.

Millwall is playing in the Champions League final.

London has become the center of English football this season! ()
