The Young Lion

Chapter 169: A century of shame

Most of the stands in Old Trafford were silent, and only Millwall fans who came as guests were singing with excitement.

But more Red Devils fans are still optimistically comforting themselves.

"It's nothing, nothing. Two goals fell behind. Last year, two goals came back."

Yes, most fans think today's game is very similar to last year's remake. Millwall made a two-goal advanced goal and ended up with a 5:5 draw.

In any case, it is not time for despair.

But Aldridge was determined to make the Red Devils desperate today!

Take advantage of your illness and kill you!

He doesn't care about the poor condition of the Manchester United players, physical problems, continuous defeats, the main force can't play, and other adverse factors.

The first thing he wants is a victory, 3 points, and secondly, he can enter Manchester United three and will not have the advantage of two goals.

Millwall is going to blow up a storm across England, and let the mad lion step on the throne with the bodies of all the giants!

"Manchester United's situation is very bad, they can't control the game. Scholes, the young man who is expected to be the successor of Cantona, is in a clear disadvantage. Then again, even if Cantona is on the court, what happens? What? He himself admitted in an interview last month that he had a problem, and he couldn’t find the reason why he was in a bad state.”

Manchester United showed fatigue from the opening, and their off-the-ball movement decreased significantly, which directly led to their offensive players being directly marked to death. Today Solskjaer works very hard, but relying on him in Schneider What's the use of running away from the side? No one can accurately pass the ball to him, he has no chance to play.

Ferguson’s character, Manchester United’s heritage, and the blood of the Red Devils all make it impossible for them to have the idea of ​​a small team losing and winning. The strong are not afraid of failure, they are afraid of not winning, fear It doesn't even have the courage to struggle against it!

Therefore, Manchester United began to counterattack, Millwall was calm, especially when Manchester United's running power was not attentive, Nedved's immortal Iron Man was even more dazzling. He actively participated in the defense and made up for Pirlo. With his defensive loopholes, coupled with Makelele, even though Keane and Bart both stepped forward to participate in the offense, they couldn't do anything at all in the middle.

The full-backs also attacked boldly. Manchester United finally created an opportunity, but Beckham played the ball out of the bottom line.

Butt quickly took the ball and directly tossed the ball to his compatriot Schneider. Solskjaer went back to the backcourt without thinking. He knew that Millwall was turning from defense to attack faster than anyone else.

But his two legs clearly couldn't run faster than the ball.

Elvin assisted before, and Shevchenko who defended him rushed forward after Manchester United's attack, leaving him far behind. Schneider's long pass from the top came as expected, and the rear was empty. Manchester United immediately realized what is called the pressure of the army!

Larson, Trezeguet, Shevchenko, plus the undead Nedved, four sprints together, Manchester United has two central defenders left in the backcourt, and can only withdraw from the restricted area.

Shevchenko caught the ball and made a slight adjustment to pass the middle. May went to defend Trezeguet, but the opponent missed the ball. Larsen of the left wing took the ball and gently returned it to the top of the penalty area.

The ball rolled slowly, and Nedved didn't need to adjust.

Schmeichel flew out but couldn't touch the ball. It wasn't the angle, but the speed. The ball was too fast. When Schmeichel was acting, the ball had already crossed the goal line.

"The goal was scored again! Millwall led by three goals. I don't think there is any suspense in the game, although the game still has fifty minutes. Nedved scored a great long shot. Today Keane and Bart completely follow Not at the pace of Nedved, he has been running at a high speed, running at a high speed, running at a high speed, when will he ever know that we are tired?! Millwall's **** of war, leading the mad lion to become stronger every day! This The Czech who shined in the European Cup in the summer is undoubtedly the number one star of Millwall! It is also one of the best in the Premier League!"

After scoring a goal, Nedved ran to the visiting team's stand, his fists clenched tightly, showing a roaring expression.

Crazy Lion fans cheered him excitedly, and even some fans wanted to come over the grandstand and hug Nedved, but were blocked by the stadium staff.

Aldridge tilted his head on the sidelines, closed his eyes and raised his mouth, squeezed his hands in one hand, squeezed his fists fiercely, and kept swinging slightly. After throwing away the jersey, he jumped up and looked very excited. In the team, Nedved is the most admired by Barak, and he also strives to make himself like a giant like Nedved. .

Ferguson's face was very green. He knew he could not let the players perform like this. Less than ten minutes before the end of the first half, he had to stabilize the team. If he missed another ball, I'm afraid everything would be over.

He made a gesture to calm down the players, avoid dropping the ball first, and he had to make adjustments during the intermission.

Originally intending to completely freeze Nedved with the configuration of the double waist, but Ferguson can see that Nedved's organizational role has been weakened. The Italian young man is inconspicuous on the field, but under the protection of Makelele, he The handling of the ball was very easy and calm, Scholes was dizzy, Cole retreated too deep, but also reduced the offensive threat of Manchester United.

In the last few minutes of the first half, Manchester United did not lose the ball, but before walking into the locker room, the players' expressions were extremely frustrated, and they were very exhausted after panting.

In the second half Manchester United made adjustments.

Ferguson let Keane go up, at least he went to grab Pirlo, it must be an overwhelming victory, but also to allow Scholes to have a point of contact when he was transferred from the defense to expand the room for play.

Aldridge saw a change in Manchester United's tactics and outlined a faint smile.

Millwall allowed Pirlo to organize after the delay, and it could not be organized without representing Nedved!

Come and grab Pirlo, better, lead the snake out of the hole, this is good, Pirlo has become a cover for Nedved!

Keane ran in a wide range in the midfield to try to limit Pirlo, but Pirlo gave up too much control of the ball when he was in a bad situation. He took the ball from the back and passed it to his teammates. Even the teammates consciously Instead of passing him the ball, but through the side transition, Nedved had more room to move in the frontcourt.

Schneider responded to Makelele's cross pass to drive the ball forward. Solskjaer caught up. Midway, Schneider came to an emergency stop, held the ball at his feet and no longer moved forward, then easily passed the ball to In the middle of the road, Nedved voluntarily ran over to take the ball, and the speed was up. He leaned forward to make a catching movement. But Bart's center of gravity also moved forward. As a result, Nedved did not catch the ball, but Following the ball's trajectory to complete the turn, Bart's center of gravity was deceived, plus Nedved's explosive acceleration, he was directly shaken.

Dribbling from the middle to Manchester United's penalty area, May and Paliste were obviously very passive.

Larson, Shevchenko, two wingers cut the ribs of the penalty area without the ball, plus Trezeguet harassment in the middle, Manchester United's back line was crumbling.

Nedved made a fake long shot. When Paliste moved slightly to block, Nedved made a real pass to the penalty area and the ball came from Paleste. Rolled over, penetrated the defense line, Shevchenko faced the ball this time without greed, but instead passed the ball after Schmeichel's attack, Trezeguet directly shoveled down on the ground under May's interference, the ball He was knocked into the goal by his foot.

"Four to zero! This is the 18th foot shot of Millwall in the match, Manchester United is unable to resist, Trezeguet also scored the goal, he should thank Shevchenko, the Ukrainian passed the ball selflessly , Also added an assist to his credit. Manchester United seems to have no way, do not know how to contain Millwall's offense. Andy, what do you think? I think Manchester United will not be able to make a comeback in this game, But how Millwall should be contained may not only be a headache for Ferguson, but also a question for all the Premier League teams to calmly think about."

"Martin, I just want to say that there was a tactical genius in England! Aldrich Hall was not blinded by Millwall’s success in the previous two seasons, and his team also encountered most of this era. The offensive problems encountered by the team, before, we all know that Nedvide is the core of Millwall's offensive offense, he will organize the offense, scoring goals or assists is not his main task, but with many strong teams The same problem was encountered: what should the team's offense do once their frontcourt core was completely frozen? In England, we will see frequent side passes, and in Italy, we will see the ability of superstars. Show, but Millwall has completely reversed the situation tactically. Pirlo is the invisible commander on Millwall's field. He is the original source of Millwall's attack. He has a loose environment to observe the situation on the field and decided Where to pass the ball to start the attack, although he does not directly assist or score, but most of Millwall's goals come from his initial move, Ferguson obviously also found this, Manchester United wanted to limit Ned in the first half Vader, but found that they were staring at the wrong person. When Manchester United fixed the problem in the second half, Keane went to restrict Pirlo, but Nedved defeated Bart in a one-on-one contest, which released the power, Mill. Wall’s tandem approach was originally a paradox, a tactic that England’s traditional 442 formation cannot do.”

"why?"

"Because you can't put another Gascoyne behind Gascoyne. Once you drop the ball in the midfield and backcourt, there will be a big problem in defense. And Keane steals Pirlo once in the second half. What happens next? Keane? Passing the ball forward, Makelele successfully intercepted. The biggest feature of Hall's set of tactics is that the midfield also created a space for mistakes for Pirlo. Under the protection of Makelele, his risk was minimized, and when After Pirlo grew up completely in the future, he was calmer, calmer, and made fewer mistakes, so Millwall's offensive threats became even more limitless."

"I think that Hall's transformation of the striker is the most successful. In the past, most of the strikers we saw stood in the dead position and took the ball to start creating opportunities. Now, even with the same number of people, Millwall's two wingers When the first blow is fatal, it will cut the penalty area from the side of the road at a high speed, forming a direct threat to the front door, and also making the defensive players unable to guard, and Larson and Shevchenko are so fast, I think not Several defenders can turn around to catch up. I am afraid that only the top Italian defenders can limit this tactic under the premise of passing accurate predictions."

"The key point is not how the forward moves, but the timing of the pass. Millwall is doing this well to play an extremely efficient offense, which also requires high player capabilities, and the passer must be able to master the most. It’s a good time, there is a tacit understanding of the striker’s running position. This is not something that ordinary teams can copy if they want to imitate. At least, I think that the players in Millwall have different talents. The most curious thing is that they are themselves Talented, or does Hall have the magic to make them different."

Ferguson's nose is scary, he feels that Millwall has changed dramatically from last season.

Millwall, who scored five goals at Old Trafford last season, relied more on individual play. Although there were tactical highlights, it was more on top of the players’ top performance.

But Millwall today completely destroyed Manchester United who was not in shape.

But even for Manchester United in normal condition, Ferguson did not dare to pack the ticket to absolutely suppress Millwall.

Not to mention how Manchester United breaks Millwall's overall defensive system, at least how Manchester United defends Millwall is a big problem.

Aldridge has built this team with too much control and ability, and at the same time there is no lack of physical confrontation. In addition to Pirlo's softness, the other players are all tough guys, especially the trident on the front line, Lal Mori and Shevchenko have speed, and Trezeguet has a body. This kind of rib obliquely breaks the door is unpredictable.

Ferguson contracted the midfielders, changing to 4411, Cole topped the front, Solskjaer behind, small diamond midfielder, Keane went back to defend, Bart, Scholes, Beckham three attacked Pirlo With Makelele, the wings were pulled apart when attacking.

Aldridge noticed that Manchester United began to compress the midfield defense and made a gesture on the sidelines. The players on the court understood.

What makes his 433 more flexible than 442 is that he can shift the focus of the offense without changing the formation position.

In the following time, Pirlo and Nedved attracted defensive pressure in the midfield, while Schneider and Capdevila assisted forward and cooperated with the winger to completely explode Manchester United's side defense!

Especially in the second half of the game, the Manchester United players rushed to no avail, and their physical fitness first had problems.

After Schneider got out of the floor, he dribble the ball into the penalty area, and then made a surprise cross-footed pass. The ball hit the back-to-back Keane leg and directly bounced into the Manchester United goal.

Oolong!

At the last minute of the game, Larsson took the ball on the left side of the front of the penalty area and dribble the ball. The world wave locked the score at a **** 0:6.

Old Trafford falls!

Three rounds of Premier League lost 17 goals, a century of shame!

The score at home will also remain in memory for a long time.

Millwall has a ten-game winning streak. After 12 rounds in the league, it leads Manchester United by 12 points!
