The Young Lion

Three hundred and thirty seventh, waiting for the touchstone

Before the end of the first half, the score was not rewritten, and the two teams walked into the locker room.

During the halftime break, Aldridge did not make too many adjustments, but asked the offense to play more layered.

There is nothing to mention in terms of defense. The opponent didn't even have a shot in the first half, and Millwall completely suppressed the opponent in the away game.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, Millwall still had the advantage on the court. Sheffield stepped up marking and harassing Ronaldinho on Wednesday. In terms of body, Ronaldinho was still at a disadvantage. He was at a disadvantage in the confrontation, especially when the opponent used his body to collide unreasonably. To disrupt Millwall's attack.

After discovering this situation, Nedved took the initiative to go over and whisper to Ronaldinho.

The two swapped their roles in the first half. Nedved returned to Zhengyin's midfielder role, allowing Ronaldinho to return to the winger, and less organization with the ball. Once he goes forward, he will directly threaten the opponent's goal. As long as he enters the penalty area, the opponent wants to play. Fouls will also be scruples.

With the top offensive players being closely guarded, Millwall's full-backs stepped forward to assist and became the focus of the game. In addition, Pirlo was more mature than last season, and the control rhythm has reached a level of qualitative change. Millwall's offensive now looks like it is not as stormy as it was in the past two years, but through continuous control of the scene, even if the threat is resolved by the opponent, it can launch two or three consecutive attacks, constantly hitting the opponent's defense. , challenged the opponent's nerves, and under such a rhythm, Xie Wednesday couldn't stand it any longer.

Schneider is now at the full-back position like a fish in water, and when he steps forward to assist, he has reached the point of proficiency.

Combining his skillful and delicate footwork with his efficient playing style, he played very well on the right wing, and continued to create threats on the right wing in the second half.

In the 63rd minute, Schneider passed the opponent's full-back and knocked back at the top of the penalty area. Nedved deliberately missed the ball. Pirlo followed up and seemed to shoot, forcing Sheffield Wednesday's defense to press Coming up to block him, the audience was stunned. Pirlo lightly flicked the ball forward, and Nedved, who was rushing forward when the ball missed, happened to pass by the entire defense line of the opponent. The ball arrived as expected!

But the ball was picked a bit high, and Nedved had to jump up and head the ball at the first time, otherwise the goalkeeper who attacked would definitely not give Nedved a chance to readjust when the ball landed.

Nedved was facing the goal, and the ball was heading towards the goal. He was not good at exerting force, so he jumped up and headed the ball to Larsson who followed up from the right and was completely unmarked.

Larson did not wait for the ball to hit the ground and shot a volley!

The ball flew into the upper left corner of the goal like a fired shell.

The goalkeeper looks at the ball and sighs. Not even time to react.

Larson and Nedved embraced tightly after scoring!

Brilliant goal! It's no surprise that Schneider knocked back at the top of the box. It's no surprise that Nedved didn't hit the goal with a player in front of him blocking the angle, but he missed the ball , We all thought that Pirlo, who followed up, would shoot from a long distance, but Pirlo used a shocking pass to penetrate Sheffield Wednesday's entire defense. The most amazing thing is that Nedved is clearly facing back Pirlo, he went straight forward after missing the ball. It seemed that he knew that Pirlo would pass the ball to him. Larsson, the Swedish super-scorer accepted the gift with a violent volley and blasted the ball into the goal of Sheffield Wednesday! Millwall leads Sheffield Wednesday 2-0!

Aldridge sat down and nodded, but he still had some regrets in his heart. Ronaldinho and Van Nistelrooy did not participate in the whole process of the goal, and it was still completed by the cooperation of the mainstay players in the team.

But this kind of thing can't be rushed, wait for more games to be played, as long as the training is done properly. It will happen naturally.

When the game came to the 70th minute, Millwall made a substitution.

Aldridge replaced Nedved with Klose and Larsson with Van der Meyde.

Formation changed to 442.

It seems that after leading by two goals, Hall will focus on the next game. Let Nedved and Larson go down to rest, and prepare for the focus of the battle with Manchester United in a week.

As the narrator guessed, Aldridge did let the two main players rest. A week later, they will play against Manchester United at home.

Changing from 433 to 442, the formation posture has become balanced. Millwall can play back, and the full-backs don't have to go straight up and down. The offense is instigated by the two full-backs.

Ronaldinho and Van der Meyde were on one side, sending shells to Klose and Ruud van Nistelrooy on the front line.

With two balls in hand, Ronaldinho began to play boldly, not treating his opponents as human beings on the wing, and playing fancy skills with the ball at his feet.

Aldridge allowed Ronaldinho to play like this, but there is a premise that Ronaldinho must provide firepower for his teammates.

When Ronaldinho attracted two defensive players on the left side, he stepped on a bicycle and quickly passed the ball back to the center. Because he was closely marked, the opponent's defense in other positions would be free. Pirlo used the same trick after receiving the ball Replay, then pass the ball to the right.

Van der Meyde is much stronger than when he first joined the team last year, and his foot skills have also honed the characteristics of simplicity and efficiency. He stopped and dribbled the ball while catching the ball, directly wiped the opponent's full-back, broke through the bottom and then made a high pass. , Klose grabbed a point in front of the goal, jumped high and then headed the goal, and the ball crashed into the net.

3:0, does anyone doubt that Millwall's strength has declined? Andy, have you noticed that Millwall's current style of play has become richer?

Martin, you are right, Millwall is more varied than before, this change comes from Ronaldinho, he can attract the attention of two or three opponent defenders on one side, And guarantee not to concede the ball. After he passes the ball to his teammates, there will be holes in the opponent's defense. In addition, the striker Klose, who made his debut today, makes Millwall's cross more threatening. Van der Meyde also has a role to play.

After Klose scored, he ran to the sidelines and did a front flip to celebrate. This was his first professional league goal, and of course it was worth celebrating.

Aldridge put Lampard on to replace Pirlo, and then sat quietly.

Jansen smiled next to him: It seems that we have a tradition that a striker can score in his debut. Shevchenko also came off the bench at that time, and Klose also scored now.

Hehe, this is a good tradition, and I hope it can be carried forward forever.

Aldridge replied with a smile.

Before the end of the game, Klose controlled the ball in front of the penalty area. Using his body to withstand the opponent's harassment, he gave the ball to Lampard, who inserted in the back, before being sieged. The latter made a long-range shot and locked the score at 4:0.

Klose, seeing how he played less than 20 minutes off the bench today, we can understand why Millwall dared to sell the two main forwards in the summer, and Hall dared to release the rhetoric of winning the league. They lack Forwards? No, no, are they lacking good strikers? Look at Klose, one pass and one shot are not enough to describe his contribution to the team, if Ruud van Nistelrooy hadn't wasted two wonderful strikes from Klose ...Maybe Klose can score a hat-trick of assists. And he can score himself. I remember when Trezeguet played his first game in the Premier League three years ago, he was definitely not as good as Klose.

At the end of the game, Aldridge shook hands with the opponent's coach with a calm face, and then walked into the player channel.

Millwall's first league away victory. This is no surprise.

Facing a team at the level of Sheffield Wednesday, victory and victory are not convincing enough, especially when Millwall can easily control the rhythm of the game on the field. Whether there is any problem with their defense can not be seen from this game at all , could not get the result.

The real touchstone is the next round at home with Manchester United.

After the game, Aldridge walked into the locker room to congratulate Klose. Then a hasty interview in the mixed zone led the team back to London.

In the first round of the league, Millwall ranked first in the standings with a 4-0 away victory over Sheffield Wednesday.

The highly anticipated new season of the Premier League has begun, and the first round of the league was disappointing.

Five draws in ten games, four of them 0:0.

The most exciting game was when Manchester United was almost defeated by Martin O'Neill's team at Old Trafford. The final result was 2:2. Martin O'Neill even claimed to be disappointed with the result in an interview after the game. He believes that Leicester City has every chance to take away the victory.

The league has just started, and the standings are meaningless.

During Aldridge's preparations for the match against Manchester United, he specially focused on the small-scale cooperation between Ronaldinho and Nedved during offensive and defensive drills.

Before the start of the season, Aldridge regarded Manchester United as the biggest competitor in the league in the new season. Therefore, when the two teams will have a direct dialogue in the second round, the press conference the day before the game was very lively.

What do you think about Manchester United's almost losing to Leicester City at home? Do you still think Manchester United is Millwall's biggest competitor?

The tone of the reporters has begun to look down on Manchester United.

Aldridge said indifferently: Manchester United underestimated the enemy. They did not correctly realize that Leicester City's strength in the new season has increased. If you do not pay enough attention to your opponent, then you will be punished. Millwall will not make mistakes, Manchester United The results of the last round of the game will not change the fact that Manchester United is strong. If I think that Manchester United cannot win even Leicester City, it means that Manchester United has become weak, then this is a very stupid idea, and It will have a negative impact on the team.

This is the fourth season you have played against Ferguson. In the first two years, Millwall sold important players such as Solskjaer and Stam to Manchester United. This summer, it is said that Ferguson intends to acquire Ruud van Nistelroo. Hey, have you guys talked about this?

The transfer window is still open and anything can happen.

Like Klose has also attracted the attention of many teams.

Do Manchester United want a Millwall player?

Of course I would, and more than one.

Facing this problem, Aldridge said bluntly: My players are pursued by other clubs. After winning the Champions League, other clubs are less attractive, my players prefer to stay at Millwall, where they can achieve more, and I trust them with each other.

Although you say that, Millwall still let go of many important players in the first team in the summer.

That's different. Some players leave for no competitive reasons. I'm sure their departure will not deal a heavy blow to the team.

Aldrich's speech today showed a gesture to the outside world.

If Millwall sells players, it will only be players they can let go.

For key players like Capdevila, Trezeguet, Shevchenko, and Elguera, the Millwall team has suitable replacements, and there will be no personnel gaps due to players leaving.

As for the absolute main player, even if Aldridge sells, he will not choose to sell to Manchester United.

Ferguson begged for Larson every year, and Aldridge is too lazy to return him now. ()
