The Young Lion

Manchester United's offensive advantage on the left continued to accumulate, and Millwall's counterattack became more and more threatening. After the score changed, the battle between Aldridge and Ferguson, and the war between the Red Devils and the Lions became more and more intense.

In the 39th minute of the first half, Giggs made a pass from the left. Yorke took the ball in the penalty area and was about to swing his legs.

Pirlo passed the ball straight to Nedved, the latter kicked the ball and passed the ball to Ronaldinho who cut in from the left. A pass passed between the backline and the backline, and Larson slammed into him. Using the speed of his rushing up, he changed direction at the moment of receiving the ball and passed Irwin. Johansson came up to stop him, and Larson changed again. Xiang went straight to the inside, as long as he broke through the past, he would be single-handedly, but the speed was too fast, and Johansson defended him very hard. crash.

Larson stood up and sat down again, pressing his thigh with one hand and making a substitution gesture towards the sidelines.

Oops, Larson seems to be injured, he took the initiative to signal to the head coach to make a substitution, and Millwall is about to make a passive substitution.

Aldridge's face became ugly on the sidelines. The collision just now was indeed not a foul according to the standards of the Premier League, and it is common for players to collide on the football field. Whether you will be injured depends on your physical fitness and whether your body is in time when the collision occurs. Make postural changes for self-preservation.

Larson had already moved forward just now, and they collided with each other at this time. He was slightly passive during the collision, and the chance of injury became higher.

Aldridge asked Glenciel to warm up, which was a passive substitution. At the same time, he simply exchanged a few words with Jenson, and asked Jenson to assign tasks on the field to Glenshire. There is not much time left in the first half of the game. Specifically, Aldridge will follow up with the team in detail during the intermission. Glenshire said.

Larson walked off the field with the help of the team doctor. Aldridge walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder to reassure him, then turned to watch the game.

When Larson was not on the field, Aldridge immediately gestured to the offensive players in the frontcourt, telling them to return to defense first to make up for the numerical disadvantage.

But it's still a matter of game experience. Ruud van Nistelrooy and Ronaldinho didn't pay attention to the situation where the team temporarily lost one player.

The retracement is not large enough. It gave Manchester United a good time to attack.

Especially Erwin, Larson was off the field, and there was no defensive pressure on his side, so he immediately took this opportunity to step forward.

Manchester United still create opportunities by playing hard on the left.

Schneider originally did not lose the wind against Giggs,

Even if the opponent can pass the ball, the rhythm has been slowed down. Millwall's defense line has been laid out, and it is very easy to defend.

When Irwin pressed up, Giggs passed back, and Irwin continued to move forward with the ball, Schneider was depressed.

At this time, if Van Nistelrooy is smart or has enough experience, he will either retreat to take Nedved's position and let Nedved help defend the wing. Either take the initiative to harass Irwin, but Van Nistelrooy is still the same as the previous defense, following Keane...

Schneider had no choice but to go forward to press Irwin, but as soon as he moved, Irwin passed the ball back to Giggs as expected, and Giggs consciously cut inside, just entering the penalty area After taking the ball, he feigned a shot to attract Millwall's defensive attention, then made a fake pass and knocked back at the top of the penalty area. Scholes seemed to be shooting from a long distance. As a result, the ball was missed, and Beckham, who ran up from behind, pierced through Millwall's defense line. Cole and Yorke, who had been pressing on the left, moved to the right almost at the same time. Southgate was interfered by Yorke , Cole pulled the ball horizontally to make room and then pushed. Bout fell to the ground to make a save, but it didn't help. The ball stuck to the post and got into a dead corner.

Manchester United equalized the score just before the end of the first half! This time the attacking cooperation was wonderful. They kept attacking the left side and then suddenly turned to the right side. It was this change of rhythm and the sudden shift of attack that tore apart Millwall. Defensively, Cole shot calmly, continuing his good competitive state from last season.

Ferguson applauded non-stop when he saw the goal, and was very satisfied with the performance of his disciples.

Aldridge spread his hands angrily and questioned Fanny and Ronaldinho.

He had an angry look on his face, which was hard to see before.

In the past, they played conservatively and played defensive counterattacks. The players would be more inclined to defend in their consciousness and put defense in the first place.

But now it is different. Although Millwall is not yet a giant, it must be recognized as a strong team. Most of the time they play against their opponents. Players like Shevchenko and Trezeguet have defensive awareness, because they are Those who have come from that stage will not lose their housekeeping skills.

But Ronaldinho and Van Nistelrooy, as soon as they play the main force, they are attacking, and in order of priority, they focus on offense and light defense!

It's not that Aldridge didn't remind the two of them, but they didn't take it seriously, the team took the lead, and the first half was almost over, and their concentration declined.

There was a problem with Van Nistelrooy's defensive position, and Ronaldinho followed Beckham, followed, and when Beckham came to the frontcourt, he suddenly accelerated and ran forward, Ronaldinho slowed down a step, and Beckham did not stop the ball. With a through ball directly, Ronaldinho watched his own gate being breached.

The Wild Lions fans in the stands of the Lion's Den Stadium did not expect that the conceded goal made Aldridge so angry. It was strange that although they were a little depressed, they were not yet disappointed or angry.

Aldridge doesn't care about conceding goals, which team can not concede goals? But the key is the way of conceding the ball, playing against Manchester United, and being scored by a direct free kick by Beckham, he has nothing to say, some goals even God can't stop.

But if the loss of the ball is a problem from his own side, he can't tolerate it, and it is within the player's ability to do it.

Before the game restarted, Aldridge replaced Glenn Shire, and there were only two minutes of stoppage time left in the first half. Millwall defended first, so that Glenshire could integrate into the team.

Manchester United equalized the score in the away game and were not in a hurry to attack. With a balanced number of players, their previous risky offense could not be continued. They were not counterattacked by Millwall. It was because their offensive cooperation was not tacit enough. Ronaldinho Ruud van Nistelrooy still needs to accumulate a lot of game experience.

Especially this critical battle!

Aldridge walked into the player tunnel with a sullen face, when the players walked into the locker room one by one. Aldridge closed the door heavily, and angrily reprimanded Ruud van Nistelrooy: When I specifically ask you to strengthen the defense, you must realize that you need to do more, not just the standard required before the game. , Henrik was injured. We played one less player, and Erwin assisted, can't you see it?

Fanny lowered his head and didn't dare to vent his anger, and he didn't make any excuses.

Aldridge turned around again and roared at Ronaldinho: Before the game, I told you to stare at Beckham when defending. You patted your chest and promised me that you could do it. What happened? He assisted your teammate right in front of you. Score!

Ronaldinho did not lower his head. Instead, he whispered sincerely to Aldrich: I'm sorry, boss.

Aldridge waved his hand and said, Don't apologize to me, you failed your teammates.

He looked around all the players again, and said in a cold voice: In the past four years, we have created brilliance. We have achieved certain achievements. If this makes some of you think that you can enjoy it in the future, trophies and honors will automatically come to your door , then you are finished, completely finished, and there will be no more achievements in your career! You must not forget that the greatest condition for success is your own efforts! Work harder than others. Work harder than your opponents because you have paid more than others There are more opportunities to achieve success, rather than success is inherent! In the second half, I need to see you show the highest concentration, the strongest determination to win, defend our goal together, and destroy the opponent's goal together!

Xiao Luo immediately said: Boss, I understand.

Aldrich immediately replied: I don't know! You should say I can do it! I can do better than expected!

Xiao Luo raised his head and said loudly: Boss, I can do it! I will do better than you hope!

Fanny quickly raised his head and said loudly, I will do it too!

Aldrich's face softened a little, he didn't want to get angry. It’s impossible not to get angry, it is necessary to let these young players who have just been promoted to the main force understand the reality at the right time.

I have to say that many young players who marry into a wealthy family more or less have some ideas in their hearts that it will be easier to succeed in a strong team. You cannot say that such ideas are wrong. The reality is that the giants are more likely to achieve results, but if they lower their own requirements because of this idea, then the giants may always have good grades, but when it comes to rewarding meritorious deeds, the contributions of players must be different. Most of those players are probably marginal figures.

Aldridge began to adjust his tactics in the second half, not to mention the opponents, but he needed to adjust himself. Larson and Glenshire were obviously two players with different styles.

Before the start of the second half, Aldridge walked back to the sidelines. He sat down and waited quietly for the game to start.

Ferguson also sat down, and Manchester United equalized the score. Although he couldn't say it, he would be satisfied with the draw in his heart.

The Manchester United club is in an eventful season. Of course, the team's record must be stable, so as not to be criticized as a coach, especially when there may be a new boss.

At the beginning of the second half, Millwall's style of play changed completely.

Ronaldinho seldom breaks forward after getting the ball from the left, but organizes on the spot, attracts Manchester United's defensive attention, and then distributes the ball to Nedved or Pirlo.

Then transition from the midfield to the right and let Glenshire hit Irwin. Last year, Glenshire did not lose against Irwin. This year Irwin is one year older, but Glenshire is more mature. The kick is sharper.

In the second half, the Millwall team was very focused, and at least there was no problem with their attitude on both offensive and defensive ends.

Ronaldinho's current position and role on the field is more like a midfielder. It is a bit strange to say this, but it is true. When he actively cooperates with Pirlo and Nedved, Millwall's control over the midfield has suddenly improved, and he has a faint taste of samba football. It is really a pleasure to watch Ronaldinho's technical moves out of place. With Wade's concise shots, coupled with the speed impact brought by the explosive start of Glenn Shire on the right, the Lion's Den Stadium is Hollywood beside the Thames!

Gronkshall made a breakthrough from the right and made a bottom pass, a bottom pass, a bottom pass, three consecutive bottom passes, Ruud van Nistelrooy scored twice, one shot was saved by Schmeichel, and one original He dunked past Stam but Keane returned to defend and destroyed the shot from behind. Gradually, Manchester United paid more attention to Ruud van Nistelrooy's marking.

Ferguson looked slightly nervous.

Left-back, left-back, the problem of Manchester United left-back has been exposed again. Irwin is indeed old, and now it is the world of young people. When facing Glenshire, he uses speed to rush him. Irwin can only do nothing but fouls. Shrink the bottom line to prevent the opponent from cutting in after hitting the bottom... (To be continued.
