The Young Lion

Although Millwall created 8 shots in the first half, they failed to break through Aston Villa's goal in the end.

During the halftime break, Aldridge returned to the locker room and waved his fists in front of his eyes, encouraging the team's morale with flying words.

You have done a good job! But as long as you work harder, work harder, we will definitely score goals and take away the victory. Don't forget, you have been fighting for Millwall since the FA Cup, If you can advance to the final, you are the biggest contributors!

Aston Villa ranks seventh in the Premier League. They are also afraid of you, see? They only dare to counterattack, only dare to hide in the backcourt, and they only dare to invest a maximum of three players when attacking. They are afraid, and we There's nothing to be afraid of! Don't put pressure on yourself, I just need you to show your fighting spirit.

 …

Aldridge always treats young players with an inspiring and inspiring attitude, which is completely different from the mature first team. The old fritters in the first team expect them to look brand new in a few words, which is unrealistic. Players with fighting spirit The fighting spirit has always been surging, and players without fighting spirit are Liu Adou who cannot be supported. After all, their age has passed the point where they can be easily bewitched or infected by words.

Under the mobilization of Aldridge, the players also encouraged each other. They are on the way to prove themselves and improve themselves. Friends and comrades on the field are an indispensable part of this road. The solidarity and mutual encouragement when fighting side by side is an important factor that stimulates them to succeed.

Aston Villa defended the first half, but the counterattack was unsatisfactory and there were few offensive points. The routine of counterattacking the wing was also figured out by Millwall. Neil is not slow. He is aggressive in defense, and it doesn't matter if he can't steal. If he can destroy the ball out of the sideline or make a foul to make a set kick, he can kill Aston Villa's offense.

Occasionally, Aston Villa crossed from the side to the center twice from the counterattack. Barzagli and Metzelder did not lose the chain today. With calm judgment and tacit cooperation, he successfully suppressed the opponent's threatening offensive.

The second half has just started. Millwall kicked off the ball first, and then launched a fast break after the kick-off.

Aston Villa was suddenly stunned.

Lampard and Neal played a two-for-one and then dribbled the ball to the 45 yards in front of the penalty area. The ball was passed to Ashley Cole who was plugged in from the wing, and the latter kicked the ball and passed it inside. Glenshire.

Glenshire wanted to smash the ball, but he got entangled with the opponent's defender. The ball was touched by the opponent's outstretched foot and fell behind his body. He was about to lose the ball.

Someone quickly plugged in from behind and took the ball away, and took a big step forward. Break through the last line of defense of Aston Villa.

Larmor!

His excellent game reading ability allowed him to move ahead of time to support Glenshire. His original intention was to play another kick against the wall with Glenshire. Glenshire succeeded in anti-offside, but unfortunately Glenshire chose to go it alone, but the area where Larmore appeared just rushed forward and formed a threat.

This may be an unintentional result, but it works well.

Lamour kicked decisively in a single-handed situation, and calmly chose to push the goalkeeper's side armpit position. The Aston Villa goalkeeper fell to the ground. The movement is not too slow, but he still watched the ball pass from under his elbow. Rolled into the goal.

Lamore's goal gave Millwall the opening goal! What a fantastic situation, as long as Millwall keeps a clean sheet, they will advance to the FA Cup final. Last season, they expected Millwall to win the treble. They fell in the end. After leaving the Champions League, will this season disappoint the fans who are looking forward to it? Sorry, I shouldn’t say disappointment. Millwall’s achievement of the FA Cup double last season is already very remarkable, but we can’t refuse our dream. The fans must be expecting the team to accomplish this great feat, and even if they can't, I don't think anyone will criticize this fantastic team!

Lamour, who has officially completed his rebirth in the top arena this season, took off his jersey immediately after scoring a goal. He frantically ran to the coach's side, hugged Aldridge fiercely, and even put Aldridge Qi hugged...

Most of the players on the field also rushed over. Neil and Glenshire came together. They stood near the center circle and looked at the gathered teammates and coaches on the sidelines.

Glenshire put his hands on his hips and chuckled, It seems that we have done this before.

Of course I did.

Neil raised his eyebrows and smiled.

When the celebration was over, Aldridge and the players were still standing in a circle. He bent down and said to them passionately: I knew we would score! You can score! What is the most important thing now? The game is not over yet, Aston Villa must think they still have a chance, no, they don't! You will tell them with your actions that fate is in our hands! Who is going to the final? Who is it? Tell me loudly !

Millwall!

Millwall!

Millwall!

Aldridge clapped his fists together with them after applauding. When the players walked towards the field, their expressions became more determined, and their eyes were so hot that they could burn the earth!

The referee showed Larmor a yellow card.

The Aston Villa players held their breath.

This is definitely a bad breath.

They don't even have the qualifications to challenge against Millwall in the league!

But in the cup match, the two teams really forged a lot of bridges.

What is the first championship trophy in the history of Millwall club?

League Cup champion.

From whom?

Aston Villa!

Originally, the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League were relatively wealthy in the league, and they could only hit their luck in the cup. Therefore, Millwall competed with the less competitive Chelsea, Leicester City, Aston Villa and other teams in the cup. Encounters are frequent.

So what if Aston Villa is angry?

The first five minutes and the last five minutes of the game in the first half and the last five minutes are the stages where it is most likely to lose the ball, because the players are either not in the state. Or the spirit is still in the slack stage. Aston Villa fell right on this point. On the contrary, this is what Millwall mainly requires players in training. If the ball is kicked off first after the start of the first and second half, they will attack a wave.

But this also depends on the occasion, such as an away game, it will not be so required.

In the neutral position today, you must take advantage of this.

Aston Villa saw that the final ticket was about to slip through their fingers, and felt unwilling. While increasing their efforts to attack, the confrontation on the court was also raised to a higher level.

The 63rd minute of the second half. Joaquin was knocked to the ground by the opponent. The opponent rushed bravely, and Joaquin deliberately dodged for a while. After he jumped up, he was hit in mid-air, and his shoulder was dislocated when he landed.

Joaquin looked disappointed. He felt very good today and created a lot of opportunities on the wing. It is easy for a technical player to shine in the Premier League, but the problem he encountered is the same: confrontation shock.

Once unable to withstand the confrontation, no matter how good a technical player is. Either he was counseled and caused abnormal performance, or he was injured because of the collision.

The referee showed the opposing player a yellow card as a warning. Millwall was forced to make substitutions.

Aldridge called Joe Cole, who had finished warming up, to him and gave him the task after playing.

Millwall's substitution, Joe Cole replaced Joaquin, this is a passive substitution, but let us see how strong Millwall's talent pool is, even if they passively substitute, they can still not use the main players, Joe Cole went to the left after he came on, Glenshire moved to the right, and there was almost half an hour in the game, I don't know if this change will affect Millwall.

There is definitely an impact.

When Aston Villa invested more players in the offense than in the first half, Millwall's two full-backs had to actively reduce the assists, so when attacking, the two wide players had to play a threat.

Glenshire is liberated, and he has more room to play. This has nothing to do with the substitution, but has to do with the change of sides and the trend of the game.

The full-back on this side has just received a yellow card, and his defensive actions must be restrained. At the same time, Aston Villa wants to attack, and the defensive space in the backcourt becomes larger, which is suitable for the performance of Glenshire's speed players.

On the other side, Joe Cole has repeatedly created threats through excellent footwork and technical advantages.

Although he is not a traditional winger or built to be a modern winger, Aldridge gave him clear offensive space when developing him.

In the 79th minute, Gronchard moved laterally after dribbling the ball in from the right, and then passed the ball to the center when there was no chance to pass a through pass or a long shot.

Lamore was at that point, but Lamore didn't catch the ball. Just right, Lamore got a chance that was almost the same as when he broke the goal before, but this time, Aston Villa's goalkeeper abandoned the goal. Outflank the middle and push the ball into the empty goal.

2:0, Klose's goal helped Millwall secure the victory! This group of young players is really exciting. We can fully believe that Millwall has the best talent group in European football in the next ten years!

After scoring the goal, Klose pointed at Larmor with a smile on his face, then ran to the sidelines and performed a beautiful somersault with his arms outstretched.

The little carpenter has played more than 20 times in various fronts of Millwall this season, and the statistics are simply flawless, with 14 goals and 9 assists. He is the player with the most goals in the FA Cup this season, but the total scorer list In fact, he is not number one.

Because before the Premier League team joined the FA Cup team, in the qualifiers, the first round, and the second round, there were always a few games by the low-level teams that ended with a disparity in score. He scored 5 goals in the game, and the team stopped in the top 16, but he scored 11 goals...

Of course, there is no comparison between abuse and the goals of the game after the round of 16, and the gold content is not a level.

Aston Villa's players suffered a huge blow, two goals behind, and there was not much time left for them.

In the last ten minutes of the game, Aston Villa pressed all the lines and tried to create a miracle.

However, almost no team has created a miracle of reversal of more than 2 goals in Aldridge's team.

Today, it is no exception.

Aldridge removed Lamour after Klose's goal, let Pedretti come on the field and form a double midfielder with Neal, and then counterattacked.

In the last five minutes, Millwall scored two goals through a counterattack. Lampard and Joe Cole added to the icing on the cake for the team. The score of 4:0 was maintained until the end of the game.

Millwall advanced to the FA Cup final, one step closer to the title. (to be continued..)
