The Young Lion

In fact, Millwall played this game today, facing Barcelona who took the initiative to attack away, they were also a little uncomfortable.

How long has it been since you met an opponent who dared to attack them at the Lion King Stadium?

For Millwall, who played twice or even three times a week, my memory is really blurred. I can’t remember the name of the opponent who dared to do this last time. Maybe it’s because even if the opponent has the courage, they can’t play well. Come out, or be suppressed by Millwall in the early stage of the game, and then collapse.

A player like Barcelona who dares to attack and has a sufficient number of people and a well-balanced attack group, today it can be regarded as encountering an opponent who can pose a high threat in the attack.

Southgate glanced at Aldridge on the coaching bench. He couldn't believe that his boss couldn't see that Millwall's back line was giving the opponent a lot of offensive space, especially in the case of anti-offside space. The defense line is more dangerous than reality.

Southgate is self-aware, one-on-one, Millwall's four defenders, including himself, are not Rivaldo's opponents. In the past, when they faced such opponents, they first had to compress the space and not give the opponent offside In this way, the back line will first lose a layer of scruples, and then use team defense to block opponents in a small area in a hierarchical manner. As long as opponents with super individual capabilities, they rely on this method to restrict opponents of.

But Aldridge sat there calmly, without any sign of adjusting his tactics, and Southgate stopped thinking about it. He knew that what Aldridge was thinking was beyond his insight. Maybe only after 90 minutes to go for a rebuttal.

Southgate communicated with Gattuso. Let Gattuso's retracement defense increase in depth. Partially facing Rivaldo, there must be at least two layers of defense. One person is pressing, and the other is waiting for an opportunity. Even if the interception is not successful, it must delay the opponent's forward impact and give other teammates time to fill in and help defend.

Barcelona pulled back a goal and the momentum rose back. Now, the two teams have completely entered the game state, and the game scene, confrontation, intensity, and rhythm have instantly risen to unprecedented heights.

Wow, the game is getting more and more exciting, Nedved's shot from the penalty area line went out, Barcelona quickly organized a fast break, Sergi. Cocu, Enrique received the ball. Schneider broke The ball is successful, Millwall attacks, Pirlo, Larsson, Larsson sends a direct pass, Henry kicks back in the penalty area, will he shoot? No! Beautiful! Henry made the ball to Ronaldo who came to the center of the penalty area Ronaldinho, shoot! Bonanno confiscated the ball. Ronaldinho's shot angle was too straight. His shot today didn't feel very good. The angle was not good at long range, but the angle at close range was too straight!

The pace of the game is very fast. Barcelona wants to attack, but it is difficult to directly penetrate Millwall's defense with a back ball, because Millwall deliberately guards against the opponent.

And strengthened the close press on the wide players, Zambrotta guaranteed a point in the confrontation with Overmars, the ball and the man, only one can pass!

Schneider and Enrique were entangled. In this way, the requirements for Barcelona's offensive cooperation were very high. They had to play the ball with one kick when organizing the attack, and they had to guarantee the success rate. Will turn into a Millwall attack.

In the 37th minute of the game, Cocu received the ball in the midfield and couldn't find the point of exit for a while. Millwall's high-pressure press suddenly blocked his angle of exit, cutting Barcelona's offensive formation perfectly, perhaps as long as it passed Two seconds, one second, Barcelona's attacking group can successfully receive the ball by running without the ball and running out of space, but at this moment, Pirlo in front of Cocu stands still like a statue, just defending With no intention of grabbing the ball at all, Cocu hesitated, someone behind him stretched out his foot and poked the ball away, and the person behind him poked the ball away and left him.

Cocu subconsciously went forward to fight back the ball he had lost, but saw Pirlo pass the ball behind him from between his legs.

Cocu turned around and saw Nedved leading the ball forward and striding towards Barcelona's penalty area. Don't think about it, Nedved must have stabbed the ball to Pirlo from behind him just now.

Nedved dribbled the ball all the way forward, not in a hurry, and when Roschenbach had to come up to defend him, Nedved easily passed the ball to Larsson who cut from the right to the middle in front of the penalty area .

After Larsson touched the ball, he continued to dribble horizontally. Barcelona's back line did not dare to rush up, especially the central defenders. They believed that as long as they went up, Larsson would definitely be able to give Henry or Ronaldo who cut in on the other side. Dinho, or Nedved, who is now advancing towards the center of the goal, sent an assist.

At this moment, Barcelona's defense players had an absurd idea: My God, looking at it this way, our defense is really full of holes! Is this still the second-to-last line of defense in La Liga?

When they were afraid of Larsson's pass or the space in the penalty area, Larsson suddenly shot in front of the penalty area!

In the absence of any interference, Larson shot freely from the right side of the penalty area. He used his right foot to take advantage of the situation and made a curved kick to attack the goal.

When the goalkeeper Bonano saw the ball flying towards the goal, he immediately moved a step towards the near post, but just after taking a step, he stopped suddenly, his eyes were horrified, and he found inconceivably that the ball was flying towards the far goal Pillar!

At first glance, from Larson's kick to the ball flying into the air, if it is a straight line, it must be flying towards the near post of the goal, that is, hitting the near corner.

However, with a strong rotation, the ball draws a dazzling arc along with the flight process, which is light, beautiful, and weird!

Banana balls in the absolute sense!

Bonano didn't make a save. He made a misjudgment and lost all chances to block the goal after moving a step. He turned his head and looked to the right side of his body, watching the ball fly into the goal with a strong spin , Wiping the inner net of the goal and spinning continuously, there is no sense of power impact at all.

Larson scored a goal like a work of art! What a beautiful arc, the speed of the ball is just right, people can not feel the impact of power. But it has a perfect arc that is soft and intoxicating! This is a great one. Goal. It is also reminiscent of five years ago. He had the same arc kick against Barcelona, ​​elegant and light, but able to ecstasy! 3:1, Millwall once again extended the lead It's two balls!

Coincidentally, what a coincidence.

Among the fans of the home team watching the game at the Lion King Stadium today, some fans really held up the photo of Larsson's wonderful arc ball hanging goal in the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup. He raised it high, making him the focus of the live broadcast camera.

The Lion King stadium is boiling. In the Millwall formation where there are strong men like a forest and masters like a cloud, Larson has many nicknames, Spirit Fox has been mentioned the most in the past few years, and now, Millwall's attack group of four is There are titles recognized by fan organizations.

Henry is the king of killers.

Ronaldinho is the king of elves.

Nedved is the God of War.

Larson, the fans proudly call him: King of Heroes!

Not only has he become the hero of the team countless times, but he has accompanied the team from 1994 to today, and he has made countless achievements in attacking the giants. It is no exaggeration to call him the king!

Larson ran backwards on the sidelines and stuck out his tongue, being chased frantically by his teammates.

Aldridge was gesturing with the coaching staff off the court. Trying to map out the trajectory of Larsson's curveball, the ball. It will be talked about by countless people.

Rexach frowned deeply, and he discovered a fatal problem: organizational efficiency.

Millwall has a very high success rate in advancing the attack to the most dangerous area through the midfield. This is thanks to Barcelona's active attack today and weakened the defense. Barcelona, ​​facing Millwall's high-pressure pressing, cannot match the opponent in terms of organizational efficiency. To compete with each other, especially once the midfielder loses the ball, Millwall's offensive space and offensive players have too much room to play.

What's the use of Larson cutting across from the side and only relying on the full-back to chase after him?

It's not like watching him finish the kick and shoot freely without any hindrance!

Barcelona can comfort themselves psychologically.

2:0 and 3:1, obviously 3:1 is better, so the current situation should be slightly better than the situation where two goals were conceded within 15 minutes after the opening.

Rexach shook his head, no longer thinking about it.

Barcelona cannot repeat the mistakes of Bayern Munich!

Relying on the team as a whole and having many excellent defensive players, Bayern Munich lost two games against Millwall. How bad was it? This is the lesson from the past.

If Bayern Munich can't stop Millwall by relying on such an extreme defensive counterattack, Rexach doesn't think Barcelona can do better than Bayern Munich.

Another point is that Barcelona cannot be disturbed. Like the mistake Heathfield made in the first game, Rexach has no deep taboo and cannot be led by the nose by Millwall!

Stick to yourself and never waver!

attack!

Barcelona must rely on offense to win, and rely on offense to advance to the semi-finals!

Three minutes later, Barcelona launched a fast break again. Overmars took the ball from the wing and was knocked down by Zambrotta from behind. The referee awarded Barcelona a free kick.

Zambrotta saw that the team's defensive formation was not ready, so he deliberately blocked in front of the ball to prevent Overmars from passing the ball forward, but Overmars still quickly drove the ball out, and he passed the ball back To the teammate rushing up from behind, Ronaldinho was a step slower in defense, and was directly picked and passed over the top by the opponent after receiving the ball.

Zambrotta didn't expect Barcelona to play like this. After Overmars passed the ball, he rushed forward from him. Zambrotta was caught off guard. Peter Pan stopped the ball in front of the baseline. middle!

In this wave of attack, Barcelona played really fast and hard. They didn't give Millwall the slightest chance at all. Door!

Bout made a world-class save as he denied Kluivert's header from close range!

The distance was too close, and Bout couldn't control the ball. He could only block it, and the ball bounced in the penalty area. Millwall's defenders braked just after chasing, and turned around and rushed to the ball to make a clearance. Because they saw that Rivaldo had grabbed the landing point, they took advantage of the opportunity and kicked the goal!

It's a pity that Rivaldo's shot hit a low ball, but Bout subconsciously used his body to block it, and raised his thigh to block the ball again!

Bout did it again! It's unbelievable! Oh, oh, it's not over, it's not over!

Due to the power of Rivaldo's shot, the ball bounced out of the penalty area this time, but outside the penalty area, Enrique happened to be at that point again. He stopped the ball, pulled the ball horizontally to an angle, and shot with a kick. The ball flew into the upper right corner of the goal. There was no one in that area. Millwall didn't even have a single person blocking the hole!

Boot put his hands on his hips and slightly tilted his head, showing a wry smile at Southgate and the others, as if to say: Dude has already performed supernormally, this third time, I really can't stop it! (to be continued..) ()
