West Ham United vs Millwall, this is a derby match that attracts the attention of men, women and children in East London.
The bars on both sides of the Thames River in East London were full. Fans held beers and looked at the ceiling TVs in the bars, waiting for the game to start with serious expressions.
On the streets with constant traffic, taxi drivers will turn on the radio to listen to the live commentary on the radio. Even white-collar workers sitting in the office who work overtime on weekends will put on headphones to listen to the game process.
In some remote garbage dumps, small stadiums, or alleys, hundreds or even thousands of extreme fans from the two teams have already been fighting to death.
They do not bring weapons and only rely on fists to fight. This is also the tradition of football hooligans. Bringing knives is called intentional murder. Only the cowardly will bring a fruit knife or folding knife for self-protection, but there is no guarantee that he will not be killed.
When you're hot-headed, take it out and stab someone who doesn't recognize it.
Fans from both sides know each other well, and when a death occurs, fans from both sides will stop. Football hooligans fight to vent their anger, and their nature is not to kill people. Otherwise, they would all take out knives, and the speed of death would be faster than that of hooligans.
The speed of strafing with the AK47 is even faster.
The Upton Park stadium was so noisy that it was impossible to hear what was being shouted in the stands. The scattered words that could be heard were nothing more than obscene words. Football is not a game for gentlemen, and they cannot be expected to be well-behaved in suits and ties.
It's as elegant as going to the ballet.
Players from both sides began to take the field. Aldridge stood on the sidelines with his head held high and his face serious, undisturbed by the atmosphere of the stadium.
In contrast, the coaching staff and substitute players not far behind him were trembling with fear.
As soon as they sat down, Barb was hit on the back of the head by a metal lighter, and was sent directly back to the locker room by the team doctor for examination. The police immediately found the "assaulting" fan in the stands, took him away, and then warned the team.
If the fans in the stands behave like this again, they will clear the five rows of seats closest to the visiting team's bench. This combination of threats and intimidation finally made the Hammers fans here temporarily calm down.
Sky TV workers who were doing commentary at the scene were also frightened by the atmosphere.
"The long-lost East London Derby is about to start, because in the past few years, Millwall has been working hard in the lower leagues, and they have rarely met in the cup, so the East London Derby seems to have been forgotten by us, but now it seems that the fans
I have never forgotten that when this moment comes, it will be far more shocking than the previous excitement!"
"Martin, there is no doubt that if you ask West Ham United who they most want to beat, they will not say Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, they will only say Millwall, and vice versa. Millwall is the most popular opponent this season.
The newly promoted team is gaining momentum. They are competing with Manchester United, Liverpool and Newcastle United.
West Ham United occupies the first group position in the standings, while West Ham United is only ranked in the middle of the league. This makes West Ham United, which has been beating Millwall in recent years, very unconvinced. Therefore, today the Mad Lion is a guest
It’s not difficult to understand why the Hammer Gang has such an atmosphere.”
"Andy, since July, when West Ham United talks about Millwall, especially their coach Redknapp, they will use words like thieves, robbers, shameless acts to describe them, because Mill
Wall poached the star of hope from West Ham United in the summer, and even the brother-in-law relationship between Redknapp and old Frank Lampard seemed to have become strangers. In this regard, several people
Aldrich Hall has remained silent for months. When he was asked about the matter again at yesterday's press conference, he only said this: Excellent players choose ambitious clubs, and many players can play at West Ham.
United got a professional contract, but it was impossible to achieve the achievements that he could achieve at West Ham United. It was different when he came to Millwall. Millwall has everyone from top to bottom.
People work hard and are down-to-earth. We have goals and are enterprising. We are moving towards higher goals every day. I am sure that Millwall is on the road to glory, but what about West Ham United? Haha, they are just a mess.
Days are just like the attitudes shown by the fans of the two teams. Fans of the Wild Lions will always support the team and will never give up. Others don’t like us.
, we are not curious, we just love Millwall, and what about West Ham United? Their fans can cheer for the team to snipe Manchester United to win the championship, and they can also scold the team for losing to opponents who are not as strong as them.
For them, West Ham United is just a source of excitement in life. If the team performs well, they go crazy, if the team performs poorly, they attack the team in turn."
Martin Taylor's words were copied from what Aldridge said at the pre-game press conference yesterday, without any distortion.
This is exactly the character of the fans of the two East London teams shaped by the changes of the times.
West Ham United fans are positive and optimistic and blow bubbles all day long. They don’t have high requirements for West Ham United. The main reason they like West Ham United is because of the excitement, because you never know how the team will perform in the next game.
What will it be like, is it to defeat a giant team like Liverpool and Arsenal, or lose to a weak team like Bolton and Sheffield Wednesday who are not as strong as them.
Millwall fans, on the other hand, appear to be more tenacious and tenacious. They never care about the opinions of outsiders. No matter whether the team's performance is good or bad, they will continue to support the team. They do not have high expectations for the team, but they will regard Millwall as their own.
Children, like doting parents, encourage their children when they perform well, but do not tolerate harsh punishment when their children perform poorly.
The attitudes and characters of the fans of both teams are inseparable from historical traces. They are the outcasts of London. The artillery fire of World War II devastated East London. On the ruins, they watched West London and North London gradually become prosperous, and
My own home has failed to recover. West Ham United has blown up bubbles. I am comforting myself with a longing for the future. Millwall will go on my own way and will not be swayed by worldly opinions. Let the rain and wind blow me away, I will remain firm.
move.
Aldridge did not look at Redknapp, who was standing not far away next door wearing a club jacket. Aldridge put on a casual coat because the weather was getting colder. Both of them looked at each other with solemn eyes, knowing that this was a serious incident.
A game that cannot be lost.
Scoreboard?
Who the hell cares!
Winning or losing this game is related to the dignity of the team's fans.
"Millwall's starting lineup today is quite surprising. They seem to have a new formation today. Let's take a look. Starting goalkeeper: Kyler. Defenders: Thuram, Stam, Southgate.
, Neil, midfielder: Makelele, Vieira, Nedved, Ballack, forward: Trezeguet, Larsson. It seems that they are playing 442 in a small diamond midfielder, or it may be 4312
, we can have a clearer understanding of Aldridge’s tactical intentions after the game starts.”
"West Ham United's formation today is the traditional 442, goalkeeper: Miloux, defenders: Breca, Bilic, Ripert, Dix, midfielder: Rolando, Williams, Bi
Sharp, Hughes, forwards: Dumitrescu, Dowie. Compared to Millwall’s surprising lineup, West Ham United doesn’t have many secrets. I don’t know that Redknapp is at home.
Will there be any tactical tricks?"
Aldridge looked at West Ham United's starting players and found one thing that was very similar to Millwall's, which was the heavy use of foreign players.
In the first year of the Premier League in 1992, there were only 12 foreign players in the starting lineup of the 22 teams in the Premier League, including players from Ireland and Wales who did not belong to English football in the eyes of the English. In the beginning, West Ham United
There are many foreign players in the club. With the development of the Premier League and the English teams recovering from the European war ban and the financial constraints of building new stadiums or renovating stadium seats, each team has begun to increase the introduction of foreign players.
Just looking at the names of the current players on the West Ham United team, you can see that there are many foreign players here, including Miroks, Nedvěd's fellow countryman, Ripert from Denmark, Dumitrescu is Romanian,
One of the defenders made Aldridge look at him a few more times, Slaven Bilic from Croatia. He is only 27 years old now. At this age, his career has been spent in West Ham United, which has no pursuit. It can be seen that
It is impossible for him to create any kind of glory in his career.
However, this Bilic is not a simple figure. In the future, he played rock and roll and also took up the coach to coach the team. Almost twelve years later, he led Croatia to squeeze England out of the European Championship finals.
"Garbage Squad."
Aldridge is also a person who can be infected by the external environment. From being exposed to it since childhood to being in the situation now, he is naturally full of hostility towards West Ham United.
He couldn't help but curse, which was considered a reply to this noisy stadium, even though he was very full of Ah Q's spirit.
West Ham United had a nickname at this time: "World United" because they had many foreign players. However, fans who disliked the Hammers would affectionately call them "World Garbage United".
Millwall is now also scorned by traditional English fans as: the world team.
But no one would say that Millwall's players are rubbish. This is the gap in the level of foreign aid.
Aldridge scolded West Ham United as hard as he could in his heart, cursing their players for having to reap the consequences on this rotten vegetable patch. It would be better if they all sprain their feet on the pitch!
His formation today was very simple. Muscles were put in in the midfield, and the attack was monotonous. There was no need to break through with the ball. It was impossible to run in this rotten vegetable field. The players all had a sense of self-protection. They looked at their feet to avoid small holes before sprinting.
?How to play football?
Makelele is dedicated to defense, Vieira and Nedved control the midfield, and Ballack is in the midfield on both offense and defense. When attacking, the midfielder drives up like a tank and crushes it with force!
See if the flesh and blood body of the crazy lion will be smashed by the hammer!
