1129 The Paradoxical Atmosphere

Alan Pardew, who was coached five years later than Aldridge, has ambition and passion, but he is by no means a fool who talks nonsense when his brain is hot.*

Everyone can see how strong Millwall is.

But he believes that West Ham United can have an advantage in certain confrontations. He wants West Ham United to fight Millwall with a high pitch in this game, and maybe beat the old master to death with random punches?

However, after Heywood and Ashton were violated one after another after the opening game, the two of them were somewhat defensive in their attack on the city, which inevitably caused Alan Pardew's tactical idea to die before it was implemented.

A senior is a senior, not to mention that this senior is a great master who is worshiped by countless people in the entire football world.

Aldridge walked away from the Lion King Stadium in a way that Alan Pardew couldn't understand at first.

Millwall conceded four goals to West Ham United at the Lion King Stadium.

Of these four goals, two were long shots and two were supplementary shots.

And the two complementary goals came from long range shots!

If West Ham United dares to play double forwards, the back line must be in the penalty area and put up intensive defense.

They were waiting for Millwall to play with embroidery needles in front of them, but Millwall's offense always made the final blow outside the penalty area, a long shot!

Boom boom boom, the ball was like a cannonball, hitting West Ham United's goal from far away and from all angles again and again.

Ronaldinho hit a world wave from the left side of the penalty area that flew into the upper right corner of the goal.

Alonso hit the ball from the front of the center, but was blocked by Kaka and instead changed direction and rolled into the goal.

These two long shots are unanswerable!

De Rossi's long-range shot caused chaos in the penalty area, and Ronaldo succeeded in making a supplementary shot.

Ronaldinho and Schneider took consecutive long-range shots from the outside, but Henry caught a chance to make a follow-up shot and scored easily.

Millwall sang triumphantly at home.

At the end of the game, Alan Pardew's eyes were blank. The cheers of Millwall fans in the stands seemed to be singing to him a sentence that he couldn't figure out: Who was messing with the punches?

Looks like Millwall are trying their luck!

But his mother can score four goals, how lucky does she have to be?

In a professional match report analysis published in Fleet Street the next day, "The Times" columnist David Miller used "smart way to win" to describe Millwall's tactical use in this game.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Alan Pardew wanted to use his muscles to form a wall in the penalty area to prevent Millwall from scoring.

Millwall does have European competition behind them, and although the points behind Chelsea in the standings have not changed, Chelsea have been winning and playing one game less. Invisibly, Chelsea is expanding its lead!

Therefore, Millwall cannot fight head-on. It cannot consume excessively and minimize the probability of attrition in battle.

So, Aldridge used an unreasonable way to "crush" West Ham United.

Long-range shooting is actually just an auxiliary method, not the ultimate method!

In terms of the ability to capture fighters in the penalty area, Millwall's forwards have very high quality. When dealing with emergencies, Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Kaka who come in behind. Ronaldinho who wanders outside the penalty area are definitely better than

The opponent is stronger!

Well, as long as a long shot creates chaos, Millwall will have the invisible advantage of crushing its opponent when it comes to second reaction!

Therefore, David Miller believes that Ronaldinho's goal is a genius performance and has no explanation!

Alonso's long shot was a matter of luck. If Kaká had not touched the ball, he would not have scored.

The follow-up shots from Henry and Ronaldo were the result of Millwall's tactical use.

When teammates take long-range shots, observing the movements of Cristiano Ronaldo and Henry, you can clearly see that they are trying to find and seize the opportunities after the "chaos"!

Combined with the fact that De Rossi and Silva frightened Ashton and Haywood with consecutive fouls after the opening game, these two heroes who helped West Ham United attack the city turned into docile cats.

David Miller believes Aldridge taught Pardew a lesson he should never forget.

This is exactly what is terrifying about Millwall right now. They compete with the opponent in a wide range of ways, with coarse and fine details, making it difficult for the opponent to guess and see through.

Winning the east London derby did not make Aldridge any happier.

Because Chelsea swept Bolton Wanderers 5:1 at home!

Chelsea is really going against the grain!

Start of the new season, 9 consecutive wins!

Millwall has reached third place in the standings, 2 points behind Manchester United, but still 9 points behind Chelsea!

After the league war, Aldridge led the team to Italy, preparing to visit Meazza to challenge Inter Milan.

In the last Champions League match, Inter Milan fans threw fireworks during the game and the game was cut in half. Therefore, UEFA banned Inter Milan from having fans in the three matches of this Champions League group stage, which is equivalent to weakening the home advantage.

.

Inter Milan has been in turmoil in the past few years, and if the record is slightly unstable, Moratti will lose his temper and change coaches. However, such a change of coaches will only create greater hidden dangers. Perhaps he has figured out that frequent changes of coaches will not last long.

According to previous standards, since current coach Mancini took office, his position should be unstable, but Moratti has given him extraordinary trust.

Aldrich is not very excited about the upcoming match against Manic. At this stage, he pays more attention to the league.

Mancini attaches great importance to this pinnacle battle for Inter Milan!

When facing Aldridge, Mancini had to say very low-key: In the field of coaching, he is still far behind Aldridge, but he firmly believes that Inter Milan will not surrender to Millwall easily!

Millwall did not have a good rest when they arrived in Milan. Fanatic Inter Milan fans made noise outside their hotel all night long. Even if Millwall invited the police, it would not help.

In this Champions League group match, Aldrich naturally has to rotate and let substitute players come on for the game.

A very ordinary game in Aldrich's eyes.

It doesn't matter life or death, and the opponent's strength cannot make Aldrich feel passionate about fighting.

But when he walked into the stadium after the regular training in the locker room, he felt the paradox of the atmosphere.

Probably because he really focused all his energy on the league. It was only when the incident happened that Aldrich took seriously a piece of information that had been told to the whole world before the game.

This game. The stands are basically empty!

UEFA fines Inter Milan for playing behind closed doors at home!

However, it is impossible to say that there is no audience.

First of all, the broadcaster must be at the scene, and the media will report on the spot. There are also many reporters entering the stadium to watch the game, but reporters are reporters and will not cheer for anyone in the stands. They are bystanders.

There is also a small number of spectators who have obtained the qualification to enter and watch the game through special channels.

Inter Milan cannot sell tickets to fans.

Millwall is in trouble. Their fans can't come to the away game to cheer the team!

Therefore, the remaining channels include UEFA's official sponsors. They have tickets. It is the sponsor's freedom to whomever they want to give these tickets to.

But that is only a small part after all. Compared to a stadium with a capacity of tens of thousands, if less than a thousand people come in, it is really not much different from having no one at all.

When the players from both teams lined up to enter the field, Aldrich slapped his forehead in front of the coach's bench and lamented in self-reproach.

After arriving in Italy, he even called Moratti so that his precious daughter could come to watch the game.

No. In the VIP box, Moratti warmly entertained Yiwen and Bonnie and treated them as honored guests to sit in the box and watch the game.

Now, Aldrich feels uncomfortable on the sidelines.

When it comes to closing the stands, Millwall has also witnessed it. For example, Leeds United was fined by UEFA for racial discrimination. However, when the fine was finally paid, Leeds United's opponent was not Millwall.

No matter where Millwall goes to play, no matter how many fans the opponent team has, Millwall has a large number of loyal fans who go with the team.

When playing in the stadium, they will feel the atmosphere in the stadium and intuitively see and hear the presence of fans in the stands.

Today, for the first time ever.

I came all the way from London to Milan to play a quiet game in an empty stadium!

Not adaptable, not adaptable at all.

Millwall is a big-game team. The bigger the game, the more they enjoy it. In other words, as Millwall players, they yearn for the big game, not the small stage that no one cares about.

Today's game environment is like giving sleeping pills to the Millwall players, they can't get excited at all!

Especially Larsson and Nedved are not in good condition.

On the FIFA match day at the beginning of the month, the two teams represented the national teams and had to compete in a life-or-death battle for the World Cup qualifying matches. You can imagine the amount of energy invested.

It is true that they did not play in the last round of the league when they returned to the team, but today they are playing as guests and traveling, which is also a load for them. In addition, there were Inter Milan fans harassing them outside the hotel last night. It seems that they are here to play today.

An insignificant training match.

Various factors led to Millwall's surprisingly poor state in the game!

Although Inter Milan is certainly not used to not having home team fans cheering them on at home.

However, they have played a home European game after all, and they got used to it in the last game and are mentally prepared for today.

The players performed much better than Millwall, but Millwall did not show their full strength. The players were sleepwalking on the court. After Aldridge noticed the problem with the atmosphere of the game, he immediately adjusted his tactics.

However, this adjustment proved to be a failure.

On the contrary, Millwall's formation is out of sync, and the whole team is not in a unified rhythm. Only those who are real coaches will understand that changing the team's formation and play style by directing the game from the sidelines, even if a certain player's position is moved, is not what he imagined.

So easy, because a change often has a chain reaction, affects the whole body, and requires the tacit coordination of the whole team.

Obviously, Millwall couldn't get excited today and was in poor condition. The whole team couldn't reach a high degree of tacit understanding. Aldridge's on-the-spot adjustments made them confused. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
