The Young Lion

No matter what method a team uses to control the game, such as offense, defense, organization, teamwork, stragglers and individual soldiers, etc., there is one basis that supports the control of the game that will not change: physical fitness.

It is impossible for the dominant side to run an average of 9 kilometers per game, while the opponent handed over the team's per capita report card of 11,000 meters and was completely controlled by the opponent.

How big is the stadium itself?

Goal to goal is only about 100 meters, and players sprint, not from the bottom line to the bottom line. In addition, the players in each position are responsible for different areas, and the running range has to be reduced.

If I can run two kilometers more per game than you, even in each time period of the game, the impact and confrontation will be very terrifying. It can narrow the gap in strength, because running more means covering a larger area, and relatively compressing the opponent's space is smaller.

Millwall's overall physical fitness will not be worse than Milan.

However, Millwall is in a rebuilding phase, so there will be a lot of ineffective movement in the movement of the players.

The occurrence of this kind of ineffective running is affected by the running-in of the whole team and the maturity of the operation of the technical and tactical system.

In today's game, the most intuitive thing is that Ashley Cole and Schneider repeatedly sprinted back and forth on the wing, but some sprints were inefficient because they were still playing new roles and taking on new tasks. Unable to integrate with the whole team tacitly, which also requires a lot of game experience to achieve perfection.

Another point is the gap in the team's brain.

It wasn't obvious at first, but after careful comparison of the organizational functions of Alonso and Pirlo, this point will be judged.

Has an excellent organizational brain. Drive the whole team. It can allow the team to greatly reduce ineffective runs. To make most of the offenses efficient, the success or failure is the second. At least, it can be seen that the running of teammates has a very strong tactical effect.

In terms of organization, Alonso is still at the stage of striving for organizational efficiency, that is, connecting the entire offensive system of the team at high speed, frequently sending the ball to the two wings, and seeing the space, he can't wait to pass the ball immediately. Let teammates take advantage of the space, and then play a threatening attack, and also try to penetrate long-range and long-range passes like Milan's number 10 players.

In Aldridge’s eyes, the game started to get out of control because of the Millwall full-back’s physical problems. On the one hand, the problem is that he is not perfect, and on the other hand, the opponent is too “cunning”. Pirlo’s ability to control the rhythm It's hard to see with the naked eye, but he passed a lot of middle and long distances with his teammates,

Forcing Millwall's wide players to run back and forth, build up to a point. The situation will be reversed, and the advantages and disadvantages will naturally be reflected.

The time is less than 70 minutes. But Aldridge has already planned to make substitutions, and only hopes that Schneider and Ashley Cole will finally release them.

However, people are not as good as God.

Milan's strong midfield organization system began to take advantage of the weakness of Millwall's declining wing defense. Not only the full-backs, but also Ronaldinho and Larson's physical fitness began to decline significantly.

The explosive power that Milan had no advantage before is now faintly able to compete with opponents.

In the 72nd minute, Milan attacked in the midfield and passed back and forth in a very clear and coherent rhythm. When Millwall's wide players returned to the defense, Milan also advanced the offense to the front waistline.

When there is no problem with physical explosiveness, Millwall can switch back and forth, and teammates complement each other in joint defense, but when the explosive power cannot keep up, this kind of auxiliary defense switch is prone to flaws.

The 25-year-old Kaladze became the protagonist on the wing. After responding to Pirlo's straight pass, he took the ball back and took two steps back. Nesta had to take back the penalty area. At this time, it was Schneider Pushed out to press Kalazer, but Schneider obviously slowed down a beat, and obviously didn't speed up to make up for Kalazer. He just came back from the frontcourt and wanted to speed up again. His body was at the end of his strength in a short period of time. .

And Kaladze pretended to cut inside, causing Schneider to withdraw from the penalty area and reveal the gap on the line of the penalty area. Kaladze repeated his old trick, hitting the top of the penalty area to the left of the arc, and Seedorf followed up and exploded with one kick. shoot out.

This long-range shot was of extremely high quality and powerful, and it went straight to the dead corner above the inner side of the goal post.

Bout saved to the extreme and still couldn't touch the ball.

Milan reversed Millwall again! Seedorf's long-range shot was amazing! Hahaha, this game is so interesting. The two teams lead alternately. No one knows what the result will be!

Aldrich closed his eyes helplessly, and leaned back slightly. In the defense just now, it was obvious that Millwall had a lot of defenders, but it was just a mechanical defensive position without flexible complementarity.

Schneider, Ashley Cole, can they still run?

Of course you can, but if you can't rush at the crucial moment, it will be fatal.

Aldridge started to make a substitution, Ancelotti raised his arms and shouted excitedly, and then An Pang also wanted to make a substitution.

Milan and Millwall were replaced at the same time. Rui Costa was replaced by Ambrosini. It seems that Ancelotti is going to strengthen the defense! They are now leading 4:3, Millwall This side replaces two people at once, and the entire right wing has a new look, Schneider and Larson are off, and the young Lahm and Ronaldo are on the stage!

Ancelotti and Aldridge's substitution ideas are clear at a glance.

Milan added a defensive midfielder with excellent defensive ability, and Millwall replaced the right side to suppress Karadze!

After the substitution, Milan began to control the rhythm, focusing on the surprise attack on the left.

In the 78th minute, Kaladze did not cooperate with the center of the attack. Millwall turned his head and Alonso passed the ball straight to Nedved near the center circle. The latter took the ball with his back Do it for Ronaldo on the right.

Cristiano Ronaldo has already thrown off Karadze in his position. He dribbled the ball along the sidewalk without encountering any obstacles.

Ancelotti's eyes widened and his expression was slightly nervous.

Gattuso handed over the central defense to Ambrosini, and then he fired to support the wing defense. It is about to have a duel with Ronaldo. c**crisp and stride the ball forward again. Then broke through Gattuso's interception with pure acceleration!

However, Cristiano Ronaldo had no room to cut inside and could only end the attack with a cross. Henry, who followed up and grabbed a spot in the middle, was already very alert, but he grabbed a spot and was shot by Marti. Ni blocked the shot line with his body and blocked the ball out of the baseline.

Ancelotti took advantage of this moment and immediately gestured to Karadze, telling Karadze not to press on rashly.

The score is leading. There is no need to take any more risks, as long as the rhythm is controlled and the defense does not leave the opponent with obvious gaps, he believes that this goal battle is over!

Aldridge decisively played the last card.

Millwall used the last substitution in the 80th minute, young Brazilian midfielder Kaka came on, and he replaced, it was Ashley Cole? Millwall looked like he was going to fight for his life Already!

Ancelotti did not expect that Aldridge was habitually crazy.

And this substitution made Ancelotti frown.

The most afraid of Raiders on the court.

If it's just a match-up substitution, that's all. If Kaka replaces Nedved. The foreseeable situation will not be too surprising.

Kaka replaced Ashley Cole.

How will Millwall's offense play when the attacking midfielder changes to a full-back? What is the formation?

This is only Aldrich himself understands now. And Ancelotti can only guess, or observe the game and then figure out the opponent's intentions.

There is not much time left in the game, and the thing that Ancelotti is most worried about is: When I understand the opponent's intention to make a substitution, will the game situation change dramatically? And the game time may make it difficult for me to catch up!

Kaka played with Aldrich's tactical requirements, and he, for the time being, is not a surprise soldier!

He is a screener, a cover, a chess piece that attracts the opponent's attention but is not the main point of attack!

Ancelotti focused his eyes on Millwall's left-back defense.

To find out Aldridge's intentions, first of all, who will play Ashley Cole's position after he is off the court.

Or, no one plays and really blatantly turns into a 3-back.

When a figure appeared in that position, Ancelotti's expression moved slightly, feeling a little relieved.

Nedved!

Aldridge actually let Kaka play and replaced Nedved, and then Nedved went to play left back!

Retreating a player who is a good offensive threat obviously weakens Nedved's impact.

Although Kaka has good stamina, he is still immature after all. Ancelotti does not believe that Kaka can be more threatening than Nedved in front of experienced defenders like Maldini and Costacurta. !

The physical condition of Milan players has also begun to decline significantly. The offense is mainly stable, and the long passes have been significantly reduced.

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Aldridge called on the team to fight at the 85th minute!

Crazy up front!

Ronaldo and Kaka are full of energy. Their chaotic fight in the frontcourt makes Milan have to attack the frontcourt, and the backcourt is not safe.

In the 88th minute, when Seedorf was rushed up by Nedved to steal, Ancelotti's expression suddenly changed.

Nedved is not a full-back at all!

With Milan lacking impact on the wing and declining physical fitness, Nedved rushed forward to press. Can Seedorf pass Nedved and keep going?

He can't get rid of Nedved!

And Nedved is the most physically fit Millwall starter!

At this moment, his advantage was revealed.

Stealing Seedorf, Nedved crossed the ball to Alonso, the latter passed directly to Kaka in front of him, Kaka stopped the ball and turned around, he retreated a lot, not like a midfielder at all, More like a central midfielder, Kaka, who didn't take the ball to try to break through, quickly shifted the ball to the right.

Ronaldo got the ball from the wing and did not cut inside. This was Kaka's request to Aldridge after he came on the field.

There is no strong support in the middle, and the impact brought by Ronaldo's inside cut can only be relied on by himself. In that case, the offense will not be easy to fight.

Aldrich had a calm expression and his eyes were as calm as water.

Millwall's last fight is to go back to the traditional routine!

Cristiano Ronaldo dribbled the ball along the sidewalk, and Karazze was always on guard against Ronaldo's dribbling inward, which instead gave Ronaldo a chance to bottom.

He took the ball to the bottom and completed a cross of the winger's job!

The quality of this cross was extremely high, it flew over the densely defended area in the middle of the penalty area, and landed at the back of the small penalty area, and it was an outspinning arc ball!

Henry, definitely won't be able to grab the spot, because he is outflanking in the middle.

Ronaldinho came to the front waistline and did not go deep into the penalty area.

However, there is still a dark blue figure galloping towards Milan's restricted area!

The ball flew over the heads of Maldini and Costacurta and landed two meters in front of Cafu, and someone actually made a dive to the top!

who?

Wild Lion God of War, Nedved!

Dida's weird saving posture seemed to be shot and fell to the ground. After jumping up, he fell into the goal in embarrassment, and beside him, the ball rolled slowly.

Nedved scored a header in the last minute and equalized for Millwall! 4:4, 4:4, crazy game, crazy game! It was really a great game with stars! Nedved let The suspense of this match still exists, the Wild Lions will not admit defeat, and Millwall will not bow to the new European champion! Because Nedved, the god of war, is not old yet, and the heart of the Wild Lions is still beating!

Nedved slowly stood up from Milan's penalty area, with a majestic expression, clenched his right hand and raised his head above his head! (to be continued..) ()
