Wow, Millwall's new captain, Cristiano Ronaldo who is only 16 years old! He played really well today, not as impressive as in his last appearance, but he did a good job in the front line. Supporting role, look at his pass to Villa, Wycombe's defender shovels out to intercept, the toe is estimated to be one millimeter short, but he still lets the ball pass, Villa sends the ball into the goal, Milwaukee In the 79th minute, I finally reversed the score and took a 2:1 lead away from home!

Millwall just joined the FA Cup team, and was almost shocked!

They came away to Wycombe and encountered great difficulties.

The reason is that no one expected the downpour of rain!

Before the start of the game, the Millwall coaching staff yelled at the weather announcer as a bitch, what they said was bullshit!

When preparing for the game, you will definitely know the weather conditions, and even predict scientific issues such as wind direction and speed based on the stadium conditions, which will inevitably have an impact on the game.

Intelligence collectors are not gods. We can only collect data based on the local weather forecast. However, the intelligence information we received before the game yesterday clearly shows that today’s game will be sunny!

Aldridge was drowned, and he had no intention of sheltering from the rain. In Wycombe's small stadium, the fans in the stands were all wearing raincoats.

As the head coach, what he hates the most is this. It is not that he is afraid of rain, but that it suddenly rains unexpectedly. This has a great impact on the pre-match tactical arrangements, and can even overturn everything that was studied and prepared yesterday. !

For example, he sent Ribery today. Ronaldo and Villa's three-person partner Trident, under normal circumstances, will allow the two wingers to play modern wingers. This style of play requires a combination of man and ball. Excessive dribbling and breakthroughs partially tear apart the opponent's defense.

After the heavy rain started. The field is wet and slippery, which has a great impact on dribbling, high-speed dribbling and direction change. With sudden stops and quick turns, players can easily slip and fall, can they still play like this? Certainly not!

What was even more unexpected was that in the first half, there was a puddle of water near the Millwall penalty area line. When the opponent passed a ball to this area, the ball was suddenly slowed down by 80% by the water, and Barzagli was chasing it. In the process, the forward who had already passed the opponent, but the ball stopped suddenly. It was like shaking him, he stopped suddenly and turned around, slipped and fell to the ground, and the opponent's striker had already given up. As a result, the ball magically appeared in front of him,

He rushed up with his eyes closed and kicked, the shit luck hit a dead corner, and Wycombe opened the scoring first.

Aldridge not only ordered the team to abandon yesterday's tactical arrangement after the start of the game, but also commanded on the spot to re-formulate the tactical play. If it was the main lineup, he only needed to make a few gestures to lead the substitute lineup. He yelled at the top of his voice, and even seized the opportunity to call the players in front of him.

It wasn't until the second half that Millwall fully adjusted. The opponent kept the 1-0 score, and Millwall took advantage of today's rainy environment to frequently shoot long shots.

In the second half, Kaka's fifth long-range shot finally hit the goal with a tricky bouncing ball. Originally, the threat of the ball was not too great, but the friction accelerated after bouncing, which made the goalkeeper a step slower in saving.

After equalizing the score, Aldridge calmed down the team and patiently created opportunities through short passes.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Ribery have cultivated a good tacit understanding in the youth team and the reserve team. If you want to say who in the Ronaldo team has the best relationship on the field, it must be Ribery. Will say a word more.

But on the court, in teamwork, Ronaldo likes Ribery the most, because the opponent supports him. In terms of cooperation, Ronaldo is the main player and Ribery is the assistant.

Franck Ribery's current characteristics are not particularly outstanding, and he has achieved certain accomplishments in the combination of man and ball, but he can't see the overall situation of the game and grasp the timing. Therefore, when he regularly assists Ronaldo, he plays very well. , The task of the game is simple, just find an opportunity to give the ball to Ronaldo and it's over. Other times let him do it alone, but he is at a loss.

The ball that reversed the score was that Ronaldo and Ribery came to the same side. After two consecutive cooperations, Ronaldo entered the penalty area, and then passed a pleasing slash to the ground. Villa played the killer Role.

This game was tiring and exhausted quickly. Before 80 minutes of the game, the players on the field were about to collapse, especially the offensive players.

It's raining, physical energy is exhausted quickly, and the exhausted Ronaldo is covered in mud. Millwall's away white jersey is almost the same as black and gray, but when he saw Villa score, he rushed over excitedly and threw Villa down. On the ground, other Millwall players also rushed up.

They all sighed in their hearts: This game was so fucking hard!

No wonder they had such thoughts, even Aldridge wiped the rainwater off his face after seeing the goal, and cursed a few foul words, as if venting his anger.

After reversing the score, Aldridge immediately made a substitution, replacing Ronaldo and Ribery, neither of whom could run anymore anyway.

Eh? Cristiano Ronaldo, who was substituted in the rain, seemed to have forgotten one thing. He should hand over the captain's armband to his teammates. However, he walked directly to the sidelines, and no one reminded him, hehehe, There is no captain on the pitch for the rest of the time at Millwall.

In fact, whether there is a captain or not has no effect on the game.

Aldrich doesn't know if Ronaldo did it on purpose, but whatever, Ronaldo's performance today satisfies him, especially when the team is behind, he really drives the team with actions like a captain In Millwall, only the defender's jersey is dirtier than Ronaldo's.

Aldridge wanted to pat Ronaldo on the shoulder at the end of the game, but Ronaldo hid, Aldridge looked at him, but saw Ronaldo blinking his right eye at him and then nodded, his expression was still very serious.

If you really become the captain, you immediately put on the prestige of the captain.

Aldridge laughed dumbfounded, and came up with a nonsensical thought: Is this kid putting on airs as a leader?

Franck Ribery's expression was much better when he left the field. Although he still smiled a little scary, but after being patted on the shoulder by Aldridge, he took the warm coat sent by the assistant coach. After sitting down, he talked eagerly with his teammates .

The game came to the last moment. With Wiganby's army pressing down on the border, Millwall got more and better counterattack opportunities.

Unfortunately, due to the rainy weather, the two excellent opportunities were squandered by the players. In particular, Kaka single-handedly slipped his foot in a counterattack. The last shot was almost empty, and the ball was kicked directly to the opponent's goalkeeper. He fell to the ground, and the Wycombe home fans were not in the mood to laugh at Kaka, but made Aldridge nervous for a while.

Don't get hurt!

Fortunately, Kaka stood up by himself, apparently uninjured.

Millwall eventually defeated Wycombe 2-1 in the away game. Into the next round of the FA Cup.

Although it rained for more than an hour, Aldrich was not completely soaked. The quality of the thermal coat was good and it was rainproof.

In an interview after the game, Aldridge was asked about the team's performance in this game. He replied: The boys worked very hard, it must be admitted. The game was much more difficult than we thought, and the rain had a great impact , but the players got over it and they deserved to win. The valuable experience of today's game will help them grow and improve, the FA Cup? We will try our best, Millwall never gives up easily, but we also I will not be arrogant and say that I must win the championship. You must know that Millwall has too many games this season, and now it is a four-line battle! This is a test for the team, and we will work hard to overcome all difficulties!

The new season started in mid-August, and now it's just the New Year. Millwall has played 35 official games in four and a half months!

An average of 8 games per month!

And that's not counting national team competitions.

It can be said that Millwall has double matches almost every week!

Now participating in the FA Cup, the League Cup will play two rounds of semi-finals at the end of the month, and the game density will be even greater, so Aldridge did not say enough, and did not release any rhetoric.

But after he finished the interview, when the players were about to leave, Ronaldo changed into casual clothes, carried a backpack, and put a peaked cap on his head backwards and forwards. The reporter waved at him. walked over.

Congratulations, Cristiano Ronaldo, you have created another piece of history in the history of the Millwall club. Before that, you were the youngest player to represent Millwall, and now you have become the youngest player in the club's first team. Young captain, what do you think?

Ronaldo said confidently: It was the boss who gave me the captain's armband. He made the right decision. He knows that I can be trusted. I will give everything to help the team win. Of course, I believe I can do it. Here, thank you boss.

In today's game, you gave an assist for the lore goal. How do you evaluate your performance?

It's okay, the team wins, this is the most important thing, we did it, today's field is too bad, it doesn't look like a football field after the rain, but we still won because we are stronger.

What about the future? You have advanced to the next round of the FA Cup.

This is just the beginning, our goal is to win the championship and we will achieve it at the end of the season.

 …

Aldridge didn't know that Ronaldo had been interviewed, but on the second day after returning to London, the news compared him with Ronaldo's post-match interview. Some sensational media said that Aldridge was not as good as Ronaldo guts!

Aldridge called Andrew.

Hey, hey, should you send someone to teach Ronaldo how to face the media?

Well, I saw the content of his interview today and realized it. Don't worry, I will leave the rest of the work to you.

It was originally your job as a manager!

Aldridge sighed after hanging up the phone, then shook his head and smiled.

Cristiano Ronaldo is still young, and he is angry with the bullfight. It is a problem to comment on the shabbyness of Wycombe's stadium. The facts are the facts, but since you won the game, why bother to make things difficult? what is the benefit?

In addition, Ronaldo said that he wants to win the FA Cup. It sounds like it will boost morale, but it will also put pressure on his teammates. Now it is not his turn to say such things. Southgate can say that Nedved can Said, the premise is that they played the game.

In fact, Millwall is training with the FA Cup. If Aldridge really wants to concentrate on winning the FA Cup, he will naturally release the rhetoric of winning the championship, and then use the strongest lineup to fight for it. If he wants to win the championship, if he falls, isn't this shooting himself in the foot?

There is no doubt that Ronaldo has cheated Aldridge a little.

This Portuguese boy needs to start developing his public relations skills, don’t ask for trouble, say something that will cause controversy, such as being rich and handsome, saying something like “I’m rich, handsome, and good at football, others are jealous of me.

Some words are facts, but facts are not necessarily liked by the public. ()
