The Young Lion

Thank you Thieves for your reward!

At Wembley, the green field was full of gunpowder, and Millwall and Bayern Munich were inextricably fighting.

Hitzfeld sat on the coach's bench with a dignified look.

Bayern Munich is mainly defensive in the away game. There is nothing wrong with it. In the two rounds of knockout rounds, the teams playing away games in the first round will not be too aggressive and risky, unless the score changes within 90 minutes make the suspense disappear.

The Bayern Munich he led also used this routine in the Bundesliga, so they conceded far fewer goals in away games than at home, which made their home and away performances good, and made the league championship early. suspense.

With 5 minutes left in the first half, Heathfield found that Millwall's offense had begun to change, with a faster speed and easier handling of the ball. He seized the opportunity and kicked the goal.

In such a top-level offensive and defensive contest, Millwall's attacking group was actually very uncomfortable after the opening. Like Ronaldinho, he used to be able to take the ball and do at least three actions, stop the ball, get rid of it, pass, and pass. Suddenly he seemed calm and unhurried, but today, as long as he touches the ball, the opponent has very little room for him to make moves, and if he hesitates a little, he will be cornered. Therefore, when handling the ball, he must be concise and fast. Think about the next step in the development of the game.

After 40 minutes, Millwall began to take advantage. After familiarizing themselves with Bayern Munich's defensive routines and rhythm, the players adjusted themselves and launched countermeasures.

At the end of the first half, the score was still 0:0. Although neither side scored a goal, it cannot be denied that this was a first half of very high offensive and defensive quality, especially the defense of the two teams. Bayern Munich strangled Milwaukee in a positional battle. They have done a good job in this point, especially Mateus, who almost made Larson and Henry, who are ghostly runners, feel desperate, and often have such a momentary pass space. , They ran out of space, as long as they got the ball, it was an excellent opportunity, but Matthaus always intercepted the passing line accurately or returned to the defense in time to block the opponent's offensive. The hearts of the people are respectful. Bayern Munich's counterattack after turning from defense to offense was also suppressed by Millwall's quick counterattack from the frontcourt. Nedved immediately suppressed Effenberg when he returned to defense played a key role. Lai and Pirlo pinched Basler so that Bayern Munich could not have an advantage in the midfield. If Elber and Jankel retreated deeper to get the ball, they would not be able to play fast if they moved forward and turned into a positional battle. Individual breakthroughs, they might get past a player, but Millwall's zone will always kill the attack.

Back in the locker room, Aldridge looked at the sweaty players with his arms folded.

They discussed the first half of the game in a low voice while wiping sweat. Larson and Nedved exchanged ideas on running positions. Schneider and Materazzi also reminded each other of marking Elber. A little bit was given by Elber to break through the defense and form a single-handed goal.

Fortunately, Materazzi's long legs shoveled the ball out of bounds in advance.

When they were fully engaged in the game, they would forget the surrounding environment. After about three minutes, they were all stunned and turned to look at Aldridge.

At this time, it is time to listen to Aldridge's tactical adjustments, which are often the most beneficial magic weapon for them when they cannot open the situation.

Seeing everyone looking towards him, Aldrich asked softly with a smile on his face: Enjoy?

The expressions of the players froze, and Nedved suddenly laughed ten seconds later: Enjoy!

The other players also nodded.

This high level of competition is what they are after.

If the opponent is a fish belly, chopping melons and cutting vegetables and feeding the opponent four or five goals will make them happy, but only for a while.

But meeting Bayern Munich, 45 minutes in the first half, let them have a kind of joy in their hearts, trembling with excitement!

Failure to win the Charlton game at home is also a kind of slack in their fighting spirit. Every day, when anyone would be interested in chatting, it is also because they are full of expectations with Bayern Munich The confrontation directly underestimated Charlton.

Aldridge is very satisfied with the state of the players today, pure and dedicated.

There is only one thought in my mind, and that is to defeat the opponent.

He didn't make any more adjustments, but only asked them to play the ball faster, move more flexibly, and improve their self-confidence when seizing opportunities. If you have to pass three times and do two things, you are putting the cart before the horse.

When walking out of the locker room, Klinsmann frowned and asked Aldridge: Why don't you try to let them play together? We also have this link in training.

If the frontcourt offense relies on a 5-man attack group, and the back midfielder and bilateral defenders support, then Millwall must have a richer style of play.

Therefore, in the training, Aldridge will let them perform the tactics of playing east and west to the extreme. The key point is Ronaldinho. Ronaldinho is on the left, so Henry and Nedved will also press to the left, and the three attract each other in a small range. Heavy troops to defend, then suddenly transfer the ball to the right, let Larsson as a finisher, or Ronaldinho runs to the right, let Nedved wait for an opportunity on the left, Ronaldinho, Larsson, Henry Forcefully press the right, attract the defense and create space for the left, and then suddenly play a diversion threat.

This kind of offensive routine is the focus of the next link, but in today's game, Aldridge dared not use it.

It's too risky. If the timing of the player's position change is not good enough, it will give Bayern Munich more opportunities in the counterattack.

This is a question of ability. The two are evenly matched. Once Millwall moves in a certain area when attacking and lacks people, he will be hit and counterattacked.

If you play underdogs, you can suppress your opponents by relying on your personal ability, but Ronaldinho can switch sides with Nedved, but he is not ready for the impact of changing sides. He needs more games to accumulate experience and improve game reading ability and tactical literacy. .

The two sides changed sides to fight again in the second half, and the Millwall players did not feel tired at all. When Aldridge asked that question during the intermission, they completely relieved the pressure and forgot about the utilitarian pursuit of home and away double-round knockout matches.

Do you enjoy it?

Yes, to be able to meet the powerful Bayern Munich, such an opportunity may not be seen many times in their long careers. If they do not cherish it, they will regret it for life.

Unleash your energy and enjoy this game!

In the second half, the two sides still fought fiercely in the midfield. You came and I went to limit each other's offense, and no one got a better chance.

When the 60th minute of the second half came, Aldridge made a gesture to Schneider and Zambrotta, and they understood.

The full-back assists on one side. Once the full-back assists on one side, Pirlo must suppress the idea of ​​getting in, while the full-back on the other side must be careful to defend.

The change paid off quickly.

Pirlo took the ball in the midfield, Basler came up to press him, and Elber was rushing behind him to try to steal it from the back. Pirlo did not lift his eyelids, and he calmly kicked the ball to the right with his elegant style of play. , Schneider strode forward, received the ball and went forward, directly across the half court.

Lizarazu retreated to defend the inside to prevent Larsson from cutting inside, and Effenberg blocked the passing line between Schneider and Nedved.

Schneider dribbled the ball forward, and when it came to 40 yards before **, Larson retreated to respond, Schneider cooperated with him, Henry also pulled out, Lizarazu saw that the opportunity was about to break Schneider's ball at the foot, but Schneider continued to cooperate with Henry in kicking the wall. He pulled the ball to the side to catch the ball and observed the latter pass.

This cross looks unreliable!

The ball didn't fly into the center at all, but went sideways to the front of the center, and the landing point happened to be in front of the middle between Babel and Kufuor. They both had some misunderstanding and were marking Ronaldinho.

Matthaus and Link added Lizarazu on the other side, and the three defended against Larson and Henry's inside cuts.

Jeremys didn't expect that Schneider's cross didn't hit the inside, but went directly over his head. When he turned his head and chased again, the tiger Effenberg's roar sounded in his ears.

Prevent him!

Effenberg's original position was stuck between Nedved and Schneider, which was to defend the opponent's ground pass. As a result, Schneider's pass hit the ball behind him. The first time he went to Nedved, the opponent started faster than him, and obviously he would grab the landing point.

Seeing that he couldn't grab the spot, Jeremys was consciously wary of Nedved's breakthrough or pass after stopping the ball.

But the steel giant Nedved ran forward, the ball landed on his step, and the running position was just right. He stood on his feet before the ball landed, and slammed his feet to meet the ball!

Kahn's scalp was numb, and Kufuor and Jeremys just blocked his sight. When he saw the ball, his pupils shrank slightly. He moved two steps to the left and then jumped, his whole body stretched to the limit , trying to keep the ball away with his left hand, it seems that he is trying to touch the limit of the sky!

The moment Nedved finished the shot, his firm eyes shone with a sharp light.

When the ball was passed from Schneider and the ball flew in the air, the Wild Lions fans in the stands were a little disappointed, thinking that Schneider made a mistake in the cross.

But on the trajectory of the ball, Nedved slammed it, without giving Effenberg and Jeremys any chance. Then it fell quickly, the parabolic trajectory is not only obvious, but also wonderful, even the artist with the best painting skills can't draw this perfect parabola that is exaggerated to the extreme and then falls!

Aldridge stared at the sidelines, and the picture at the far end seemed to be in slow motion. He seemed to be able to see Kahn saving to the extreme. The distance between his left hand and the upper left corner of the door frame was only 20 centimeters. Roaring, the momentum is unparalleled, but the ball just slipped over his fingertips and blasted into the dead corner of the goal!

It was as if Wembley had been detonated by an atomic bomb. In the packed stands, 90% of the spectators were Wild Lions fans. They witnessed this goal that was enough to be recorded in the classics. The crowd stood up excitedly and cheered. The blue ocean in the stands , boiling!

Wow, wow, wow! Super world wave, super world wave! Millwall blasted the gate of Bayern Munich, Nedved defeated the new main goalkeeper of the German national team Kahn! This volley kicked she and hit it The effect is like a meteor falling from space to the earth! Even at the first second, you would think that the ball would fly into the stands, but the ball fell rapidly halfway and hit the dead corner of the goal! Millwall leads Bayern Munich 1-0!

After Nedved's goal, he ran towards the corner flag excitedly with his hands clenched and his arms outstretched. He kept shaking his fists at the fans in the stands.

The other teammates rushed over to surround him, roaring together.

They have the same belief: defeat Bayern Munich, step into the Nou Camp, and defend the European Champions Cup! (To be continued.) ()
