The Young Lion

Millwall played extremely difficult in the first half, and the players have a deep understanding.

This is probably the most difficult scene they have faced this season, or even the last two years.

No matter what they have faced in the past games, they can at least create good offensive opportunities and create shooting opportunities. In this way, in the process of quantity basis and pursuit of quality, they are invincible. That cannot be avoided, the law of football.

But today, Bayern Munich really restricted them from a tactical height.

The players were suffocated, and the feeling of being unable to attack made them feel depressed. The longer the time, the faint signs of madness.

The reason why Aldridge stood up was because he saw that Ronaldinho had started to go it alone.

It's not that this is impossible, but that he was successfully defended twice in a row, which obviously didn't work well.

Furthermore, he can't just sit and pray for Ronaldinho Xiaoyu to explode his own power to help the team take away the victory, once is fine, twice is fine, can it continue like this?

Another reason is that he is about to start making moves.

The first move, retreat first!

The players on the field saw Aldridge's gestures, which were simple and clear, but the players had different thoughts in their hearts.

Villa and Klose were a little disappointed. Starting in a game of this level, they would inevitably have psychological pressure. After all, they were replacing Henry and Larson. Seeing Aldridge's instructions, they thought they were not capable enough. Inaction in the offense affected Millwall's formation and had to retreat and give up the mad attack, because even the mad attack was just a gesture. The actual effect is not great.

Ronaldinho felt a little resentful in his heart. If not the game is not suspended. He will definitely tell Aldridge: Give us some more time, we will definitely be able to break through Bayern Munich's goal!

The arrogance of the strong is a burden in this situation.

It's like climbing a ladder, once you go up, you don't want to come down.

Millwall is used to mastering the situation, used to oppressing the opponent, giving the opponent a stormy attack, causing the opponent to collapse under strong pressure.

Now pull back suddenly. The players themselves are somewhat difficult to accept.

Players and coaches must have different ideas. Players may misunderstand this as a show of weakness.

A kind of self-denial, as if there was really nothing they could do.

This step back will make Millwall drop a block from a god-level team!

However, Aldridge's strong authority, after he made a gesture, he turned around and walked back to the coach's bench to sit down. He knew that no player on the field would dare to disobey his instructions.

Sure enough, no matter what the players think. Millwall retreated across the board, and Pirlo also took the initiative to slow down the offensive rhythm. The aggressive posture suddenly changed from wolf-like tiger to gentle, as if he was about to play Tai Chi with his opponent.

The tactical adjustment Hall made on the sidelines is very obvious, that is to let Millwall retreat. We see that their three lines are still closely connected, but the overall formation has retreated to the midfield. Could it be Bayern Munich? Did the counterattack make them feel dangerous? Or, does this have a deeper meaning? We don’t know, but one thing is certain, as long as Millwall does not lose this game, a draw is an acceptable result for them.”

Others may need to speculate and observe Aldridge's tactical adjustment this time, but the members of Millwall's coaching staff immediately understood Aldridge's intentions.

Jansen smiled slyly at Klinsmann: Haha, Hitzfeld will be very uncomfortable, very uncomfortable!

Klinsmann said in surprise: Fuck, why didn't I think of this? Damn, it's so fucking simple!

Boas was thoughtful, and belatedly said: Could it be that Aldrich has thrown the difficult problem we have been thinking about to Heathfield?

Klinsmann and Jensen looked at Boas with smiles in their eyes, but did not speak. Boas understood and knew that he had guessed right, and immediately said with a smile: This trick is indeed very simple, but you have to think about it. Quick brains, Aldridge is amazing.

So he is the coach, the young coach of the Wild Lion, hahaha.

After Jansen finished speaking, Aldridge bumped him with his elbow, which meant to tell him not to flatter him so blatantly, but the corners of Aldrich's mouth turned up slightly, and he was actually very happy in his heart.

The process of this game is his greatest pleasure as a coach.

Heathfield, do you want to treat him with his own way?

Hehe, I'll accompany you!

With Millwall's withdrawal, the pressure on Bayern Munich's defense suddenly eased. From the defender to the midfielder, it was extremely easy in an instant, but the scene in front of him also changed.

There is no longer an open field in front of them, and there is no longer any space where they can attack at any time. The defense line laid out after the Millwall formation retreated is strict and orderly.

Heathfield suddenly did not understand Aldrich's on-the-spot command intention.

He frowned thoughtfully.

Millwall not attacking?

That means Bayern Munich's defense is more secure!

Because there is no pressure, no risk.

But 3 minutes later, Heathfield was shocked, and his mind was swaying as if his whole body was on the verge of collapse.

He changed his expression, his eyes were about to burst!

damn it!

If Millwall does not attack, how will Bayern Munich transplant the technical and tactical system of the England national team to attack?

Elber, Sauer, and Salihamidzic seemed to be submerged in a swamp in the frontcourt, with no room to play.

Back waist, can't you get up? !

Full-back, can't you make it? !

But if you attack like this, wouldn't it be equivalent to being counterattacked by the opponent in a positional battle?

Investing the same offensive force, fighting the opponent's counterattack and fighting positional warfare are two completely different offensive environments.

In terms of risk, counterattack is to catch the opponent by surprise. In positional warfare, the difficulty first increases, and then the probability of being counterattacked will increase.

Heathfield really didn't expect that what would happen if Millwall retracted?

Because for a long time, Millwall has given people the impression of oppressive offense, and the offensive tendency in posture is very high. When facing Millwall, all opponents. The first consideration is how to defend. The tone of the entire tactical strategy. They are all based on the opponent's offense and one's own defense!

In this normal thinking mode, Bayern Munich's defense today is very good, very good!

It can be said that it succeeded.

However, after Aldridge made on-the-spot adjustments, new problems emerged for Bayern Munich.

Maintaining the status quo, Millwall seems to have nothing to do with them, and they cannot create good opportunities in offense. Then, the two sides shake hands and make peace, and the draw ends.

If this is the case, the result is not bad, at least Millwall can accept it, after all, it is an away game and the opponent is Bayern Munich.

But can Bayern Munich accept it?

Simply speaking of the result, Bayern Munich should be able to accept it. In the past three consecutive matches, Bayern Munich was killed by Millwall three times in a row!

Got a draw today. It shows that the performance of the battle is improving, and the record is improving.

But. The game is only 35 minutes, and more than 80% of the Bayern Munich fans are watching them!

At home, if you don't invest in the offense, it is tantamount to telling all the fans and people who pay attention to them: Bayern Munich has no idea of ​​​​winning, and a draw will be satisfied.

For a moment, Heathfeld only felt that his head was confused.

Thinking about half a year ago at this stadium, he and Emperor Beckenbauer swore that he had found a way to restrain Millwall, which was derived from the technical and tactical system of the England national team.

Ideally, there is nothing wrong with that. In the first 30 minutes of the game, if Bayern Munich can have a Scholes-type player, they may be able to create a lot of scoring opportunities in the counterattack.

But this is just Heathfield himself thinking, he overlooked one point, that is, this set of skills and tactics itself came from the hands of Aldrich.

In the whole world, if you want to say who knows the advantages and disadvantages of this technique and tactics best, it is undoubtedly Aldrich.

Bayern Munich scored 80 points, but they did a good job on the basis of reaching the standard. In the eyes of Aldrich, the counterattack effect, Bayern Munich is not good enough. Passed the training and running-in, but did not go through actual combat drills, so it is very good to get 80 points, and the remaining 20 points, every step forward, needs to pay a huge price, suitable players, running-in, actual combat drills, experience, etc. wait.

Aldrich also knows the flaws of this set of techniques and tactics best.

That is: when your opponent does not take the initiative to attack, you will not have the best counterattack space. First of all, if the attack does not have a suitable soil, the power will be out of the question.

From the perspective of the general environment, this tactic is more suitable for underdogs, and it has great limitations.

The national team and the club are at different levels. Rehhagel’s defensive myth, no strong team will try to replicate that miracle, because it is not applicable. The national team plays cup games, and a game is life and death. The weak team defends, and the strong team attacks. The weak team can only fight back. In 2004, the strong team fell on Greece. It is not wronged. The weak team also has a way of survival for the weak team.

And this kind of tactic is the most dangerous in league games. Everyone will count each other's points. At the national team level, in international competitions, the most dangerous thing is actually the group stage. If the opponent does not actively attack, you also defend. The first game is tied. , What if the other two in the same group win or lose, and what if the second game is tied again? In the third game, it depends on who the opponent is. If you encounter someone who has already qualified, if you break the boat and go against the established tactics, then you are more likely to be eliminated. Therefore, the most dangerous moment for Greece in 2004 was actually in the group stage. After the knockout round, the underdogs basically face opponents stronger than themselves, and then the game will enter a rhythm that the whole team has already prepared for. Such a miracle is to kill a bloody path in the cracks.

Aldridge used it on England, because England is not strong, and it is not enough to be high or low. Anyway, it is right to regard this team as a weak team.

The Champions League is now the second stage of the group stage, which is far from the point of life and death.

Therefore, Millwall has enough leeway to give Bayern Munich the advantage of the main attack of the game.

The posture gives people the impression that Millwall is seeking stability, and harsh people will say it is showing weakness.

It doesn't matter, corresponding to today's competition environment, it is a tactical strategy.

The players on the field at Bayern Munich were dumbfounded.

Starting from the closing of Millwall, the situation and environment of the game were unexpected, which disrupted their rhythm and impacted their thinking.

They're here to fight back.

But now there is no chance to fight back!

what to do?

This is Bayern Munich's home court, and the fans cheering for them in the stands are eager for them to attack, score goals, win and beat the mighty Millwall!

Originally, they also wanted to win, and they used counterattacks to defeat their opponents.

Right now, there is no chance to fight back, so how can we win?

Hitzfeld frowned, completely unable to think of how to make changes.

Millwall really took a step back.

Now leave the problem to Heathfield, the Bayern Munich coach is thinking about countermeasures on the sidelines, and the players playing on the field will not wait.

Effenberg and Ballack assist at the same time. If only one of them goes up, there will be no obvious effect at all.

After the two went up, those who responded from the side also started to rush up.

Aldridge smiled as he watched Bayern Munich begin their regular attack. (to be continued...) ()
