The Young Lion

Aldridge's words can't be said to the players' hearts, but just let the players better accept his philosophy.

As a head coach, when communicating with players, it is impossible to speak the truth every word. What is the truth? That doesn't matter, what matters is whether everyone can accept it.

For example, when you are playing the ultimate defense, you can't say bluntly: We want to win, nothing else, it doesn't matter if you are useless on the scene, victory is the first.

People are ambitious, and most people still have a desire to show off. Those who play football, even if they are on the court for 90 minutes, also care about face.

The scenes brought about by Millwall's oppressive offense are very enjoyable for the players. They are both bright and majestic, as if they are leading the trend.

Aldridge never tried to distort the values, and he would not say that oppressive offense is more practical than anti-counterfeiting, but when he instilled his ideas into the players, he deliberately avoided the important ones and made the players easier to accept.

In Millwall, England, it's all the same.

If you don't analyze the reasons for past failures with the players of the England national team, and deliberately highlight your own advantages, how can you make them honestly obey their own words, subvert 442, and play the conservative 4321?

As the outside world said, the current England team is no longer the traditional England team, but a combination of Italy + Germany.

When it comes to the game, the team's skills and tactics, this is a serious topic. The coach can't brag blindly. You have to show some skills to let the players see. The field of football is still based on talent. Convincing people.

Seeing the changes in the expressions of the players, especially Ronaldinho and Pirlo showed a little smile on their faces.

They liked what Aldridge said.

Play more dominantly.

The fate of Bayern Munich is to attack or defend. Not in their own hands. It was Millwall who ruled.

If I don't give you the chance to take the initiative to attack. Then my 90-minute oppressive attack will destroy you, and you can only fight back.

I want you to attack, and I will catch your counterattack, then I will give you space and opportunities to attack, and the trend of the game is dominated by me.

They also all understood that this kind of dominance is based on the consideration of pros and cons.

I think the pressure attack can kill you,

Then I will do it. I think it's risky, so I'll take it back and catch you off guard.

The overall height is smarter, and the overall skills and tactics of the team can be retracted freely.

Simply speaking of the effect, there is no doubt about Millwall's tactical quality and execution ability. Being able to take the lead in the first half is a good proof. Once Aldridge adjusted, no one dared to violate it. But Aldridge is not an iron-fisted coach, and he doesn't ignore the players' reactions after making the right decision.

He will go to appease the mentality of the players. To guide the players' thinking, try to create a united atmosphere of generals and commanders as much as possible.

To prove that I didn't lie to you, how about we use the second half of the game as an experiment?

Aldridge put one hand in his pocket, stretched out the other hand, and waved in front of him. The smile on his face represented his confidence.

Infected by his confidence, the players laughed.

Boss, just tell me, what to do in the second half, only one goal is not enough!

Ronaldinho exclaimed excitedly.

The other players laughed. Old courtiers like Nedved and Southgate never doubted the correctness of Aldridge. Even if Aldridge was proved to be wrong, this still could not make them trust Aldridge. There is a slight decrease.

Okay, then let's have a big fight at the Olympic Stadium in Munich in the second half! Everyone, listen to me!

Aldridge began to arrange the tactics for the second half, and the whole team listened attentively.

On the stage of the Champions League, Millwall has experienced many battles. Now he not only wants to pursue honor and expand his glory, but also really enjoys the game and enjoys it.

Compared with the joy and excitement of Millwall's half-time break, Bayern Munich broke out a fierce debate in the home team's locker room. This kind of debate did not come from the players and the coach, but a communication within the team, but not Everyone is a gentleman, speaking loudly and emphatically, it sounds like a quarrel, but it will not hurt feelings. On the contrary, such a phenomenon within the team represents everyone's will to defend honor and win, and will inspire each other to be stronger. motivation.

Millwall is a tricky team! To play against such an opponent, we must be more flexible and think faster!

Calling the shots in the locker room was Effenberg.

Kahn also nodded in agreement, and said loudly: Like the goal lost, our full-backs failed to come back immediately, and the two full-backs have to be filled in time, and they can't just stand still.

I filled in, but their counterattack was too fast!

Kufuor excused himself somewhat gloomily.

Faster, faster! We know they're going to fight back like this, and sometimes have to get out of position!

After Hitzfeld waited for the players to communicate internally, it was his turn to come out and adjust the team's tactics.

must change.

I'm behind.

The players also think that they can't play like they did at the beginning, 4321, playing positional warfare, the opponent is Millwall, isn't this asking for trouble? At this time, what is needed is the determination and will to break the boat!

Hitzfeld did not dare to really sink the boat and fight with his back, not only relying on courage, but also relying on wisdom.

To put it bluntly, he went up madly, but he couldn't find the balance point in the middle. Bayern Munich might be smashed into a sieve immediately!

While thinking about countermeasures, Hitzfeld suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he said to Ballack: In the second half, you play the midfielder.

Ballack was not surprised at all. It's time to attack. If he didn't attack, would he just throw in the towel at home?

Hitzfeld specifically arranged the tactics. He could not just say that Ballack should play the attacking midfielder, and then let the players play by themselves. What is the specific tactical routine and what is the source of creating offensive opportunities? All this needs to be explained in detail with the players.

After Hitzfeld finished his tactical adjustment, the Bayern Munich locker room was dead silent.

The players had weird expressions and even weirder eyes.

Bayern Munich changes. 4231. In positional warfare, a fixed front midfielder support point is added. However, it is really unconvincing to rely on such changes to increase the probability of defeating Millwall.

What Heathfield said was that they were unsuccessful in their positional battle. It didn't matter. Ballack and a winger had to form a connection to quickly counterattack Millwall's counterattack, and then. The other strikers and wingers are always ready to advance.

In theory, it is to kill Millwall's counterattack, and then quickly create the highest threat on the offensive end.

But conceptually, Bayern Munich's players feel a little familiar.

After thinking about it for a while, I finally understood.

Isn't this the fucking rear waist forward strategy that the British Fleet Street has been advocating for a while?

The reason for advocating for a while is that Millwall has not firmly used this tactic in the past month or so. It will only be used to strengthen the oppressive attack in the game of abuse. Therefore, the use of this technique and tactic There are obvious limitations. Fleet Street made everyone puke, and then the flag died down.

But this concept has really begun to take root in the hearts of the people. But promotion is not popular.

The Bayern Munich players thought that this tactical design came from Millwall again, no, it came from Aldridge, and everyone's mood became complicated.

Damn, use Aldridge's tactics to play Millwall at the beginning, and use Aldridge's tactics at halftime?

this, this, this

This won, is there any face?

However, this is not the time to worry about face, winning, or not losing, is the most important thing.

The players are all veterans who have experienced many battles. They must not be able to think of a good way to fight against a super-class opponent like Millwall. The only way to do this is if the coach only boosts morale and asks everyone to go up the mountain of swords and down into the sea of ​​fire to fight for their lives!

With such a coach, there is really no future.

See tricks, you have to have countermeasures, just shouting slogans is useless!

The Bayern Munich players let go of their mental baggage and put those miscellaneous thoughts behind them.

They encouraged each other, walked out of the locker room, and prepared for the second half of the game.

Before the start of the second half of the game, Aldridge sat on the coach's bench, and the coaches around him were talking in a low voice, with a sense of confidence in their expressions.

Everyone can't wait for the second half to start soon.

Watch the show!

Heathfield was still standing on the sidelines, glanced at Aldrich deliberately, and found that Aldrich was sitting there peacefully, not talking to the people next to him, with a calm demeanor.

He thought in his heart: Anti-rebellion? Have you been defending against it?

A team at the level of Millwall is determined to defend against counterattacks. Even if Bayern Munich has the advantage of home court, it may be difficult to do anything, and the risk of conceding the ball again is very high.

The players on both sides were gearing up, and their thoughts were roughly the same: you wait!

In the first round of the second stage of the Champions League group stage, the second half of the match between Bayern Munich and Millwall is now starting. The score is temporarily 0:1. Bayern Munich at home are behind. They must be dissatisfied with such a score. In the second half, I believe they will Go all out to counterattack, they lost to Millwall three times in a row in the previous three matches, if they lose again today, it will be a four-game losing streak!

The Bayern Munich fans in the stands looked worried, and many people had a strange idea in their hearts.

Millwall, you are so fucking cruel!

In 1999, the two teams met for the first time in history. In the two rounds of the Champions League semi-finals, everyone won one game each, and then a penalty shootout. Bayern Munich won and Millwall went home.

But that year, Bayern Munich's trip to the Champions League, damn, no fans want to remember!

Since then, he was double-killed in 2000 and defeated in the final in 2001. Bayern Munich played against Millwall 5 times, 1 win and 4 losses!

Today is the sixth time they have played against each other. If they lose again, Millwall will kill Bayern Munich four times in a row.

There is a saying in football about revenge.

Millwall narrowly lost to Bayern Munich on penalties in 1999, and when they met afterwards, Millwall naturally became an avenger, my boy, this revenge is endless!

But Millwall will not always be the Avenger. After double-killing Bayern Munich in 2000 and finally winning the cup, the role of the Avenger has become Bayern Munich. In the 2001 final, Bayern Munich failed in revenge. Today, it seems that it still cannot revenge success.

It's just that in the eyes of Bayern Munich fans, they feel more like Bayern Munich has been being revenged by Millwall, because Bayern Munich has been at a disadvantage since 1999. In layman's terms: it was beaten by Millwall!

Therefore, they felt that Wild Lion was too ruthless! (to be continued...) ()
