When the game entered the second half, Millwall played extremely conservatively before the 60th minute, which was specifically instructed by Aldridge during the halftime break.
Just to waste time.
After 60 minutes, only 1/3 of the game is left, and time is still passing. At this time, the game has basically returned to the original vision of the Millwall coaching staff. Competing with the opponent's psychological quality, can Liverpool still calm down?
Can you hold your anger?
Will they miss the championship trophy? Are they willing to do so?
Although Benitez made many gestures on the sidelines to make Liverpool calmer, as the game time became less and less, Millwall did not show too many threats on the offensive end. The entire Liverpool team tried their best to
Go forward and try to equalize the score. Benitez knows that if he cannot score a goal as soon as possible, Liverpool will fall out of control!
This kind of loss of control is caused by multiple reasons. Even if Millwall does not form a huge offensive pressure on the field, Millwall's sensory impression alone will form a huge deterrent!
In the 66th minute, Liverpool launched a massive attack, but the attack was ended by Silva in the penalty area. He resisted Gerrard who came in from behind, which not only interfered with the opponent's shot, but also directly blocked the opponent's shot.
The ball was blocked!
Not even a corner kick was given to Liverpool.
Two minutes later, Liverpool, who seemed to be getting more courageous as they fought, were punished.
It's Ram again!
Liverpool's pressure will inevitably cause them to start a crazy press from the front court when they switch from offense to defense. As soon as Ronaldinho gets the ball, two or three players will surround him. Under such circumstances, Ronaldinho does not fight hard.
When being double-teamed, he used a beautiful heel to knock the ball. He passed the ball to Ram who was running in from the wing.
Lahm, who tore apart the opponent's defense with strong speed and impact, cut in front of the penalty area, then suddenly stopped, played a rhythm difference, and pushed the ball straight into the penalty area. Henry leaned against Carragher with his back and the arch of his foot.
The ball was pushed slightly, and then Kaká, who was attacking with force, faced the ball in front of him and hit the goal with a heavy kick without hesitation!
Reina had no reaction. The ball was too fast and flew into the goal in the blink of an eye!
No one could react or even predict.
Kaka expressed his passion and waved his fists after scoring a goal. He felt the same as other Millwall players.
This is not a game they are not confident of winning!
But they can't use their full strength to win the game!
This made them depressed at certain times during the game.
Only after scoring a goal can you vent a little!
They had no complaints about Aldrich's tactical arrangements, after all, they understood what was important.
What awaits them is the Champions League final five days later!
There was only four days in between, and they had to recover their physical fitness and rush to France to adapt to the environment.
It's rare to see Kaka roaring on the field like a boy next door. And all Millwall fans take it for granted.
It's as if Kaká is roaring at Liverpool: Don't stop us from winning the Triple Crown!
"3:1, Millwall expanded its lead through a quick counterattack! Although we are no strangers to the goal scorer. But in the process of creating the goal, Lahm was the first to score the second and third goals.
The ball is inseparable from his performance. He reminds us of Ashley Cole who once played for Millwall and
Gianluca Zambrotta, but his characteristics after entering the first line of attack are different. Lahm is more flexible and has better ball control skills, so he can not only tear apart the opponent's defense, but also calmly send wonderful passes.
!Lahm is a key member of the German team at the World Cup in Lahm's home country next month!"
Benitez looked very helpless on the sidelines, and his shoulders tended to drop, as if he had been crushed by Millwall's third goal.
I have to admit that if Millwall also embarks on a utilitarian path, then in 99% of the games, Millwall will have an "invincible halo"!
There is absolutely nothing you can do against them. If you want to attack and score goals, the formation will be stretched out, giving Millwall a lot of space on the field. The ability of their technical players to break through in a small area is simply frightening!
Aldridge looked at the game time and asked the substitutes to warm up.
With a two-goal advantage in hand, the game was almost settled.
After the 70th minute of the game, Aldridge made two substitutions.
Ronaldinho was replaced by Pedretti, and Baines came on to replace Lahm.
When the two players left the field, they received warm cheers from the Lions fans.
Millwall also changed their formation, from 433 to 4312.
Liverpool still wanted to attack at this time, but they were a little timid. After Millwall had focused on protecting the backcourt, their offense really had no chance other than playing high and high.
Although they have certain technical abilities, they are not yet at the top level in terms of individual players' breakthrough abilities.
The Red Army generals who worked extra hard on the field were more than brave but not delicate enough. Facing the rational to ruthless Millwall, they could only watch the game time go by. At this time, Millwall's defense was really...
Impregnable!
"I have to say that in this game, from the overall performance of the team to the manifestation of spiritual temperament, Liverpool is actually stronger than Millwall. We can understand that Millwall is so calm and does not show signs of being overly excited. Their minds must be on the Champions League.
In the final, if Millwall wins the championship in the end, they will definitely defeat Liverpool tactically, and in terms of fighting spirit and fighting spirit, Liverpool should be the victorious side! This kind of Liverpool is the Liverpool we love, but today’s Millwall
Wall, but not our favorite Millwall."
When the Liverpool players sacrificed everything and could only use long passes to attack the Millwall penalty area at the last moment, but failed to score a goal, the Red Army generals could only listen to the referee's whistle in despair and watch.
The entire Millwall team stepped onto the podium to win the championship trophy!
The game was over, and the Red Army members were in despair. Gerrard squatted on the spot and looked down at the turf. I don't know what his expression was, but it made countless Red Army fans feel sad.
Even the narrator was touched by this scene.
"Although Liverpool lost the game, their progress in the past two seasons has been very obvious. They won the UEFA Cup last year, returned to the top four in the league this year, and qualified for the Champions League next season. At this moment, although they lost
We lost the FA Cup final, but we should hold our heads high. Losing to Millwall is not a shame, but the reality is too cruel!
To think that such a Millwall team has been suppressing Manchester United and Arsenal in the league all year round. Chelsea, who have invested astonishingly in the past three years, cannot shake the dominance of the Lions, not to mention Millwall's terrifying dominance in the European competition. We hope
Today's defeat is not a blow to Liverpool, but an encouragement, allowing them to move forward bravely and hit the peak in the future!"
Aldridge walked up to Benitez and the two shook hands after the game. Benitez did not escape anything and said frankly: "Aldridge, you are speechless. You have no resentment at all for losing."
How much strength did Millwall show today? 80%? 90%? Or, 60%?"
Aldrich shook his head and said solemnly: "If you want to talk about the probability of winning, I think it may be 120% stronger than in the past, because we selectively used conservative tactics and aggressive offense does not mean that the probability of winning will be lower.
Improve, because the risks we take will be higher. We reduce the risk, but it will increase the probability of winning. This is what utilitarianism is."
Benitez nodded, feeling some comfort.
Yes, looking at the scene, Millwall did not exert its full strength. This is the feeling of the audience and it is correct, but it is wrong to say that because they do not play offensive football with passion, the probability of winning is reduced.
Correct.
Precisely because Millwall has restrained its edge and reduced the viewing pleasure of the team's offense, especially the aggressive style of continuous attack and bombardment, this will actually make them more secure in defense. The improvement of defense also has an impact on the probability of winning.
direction improvement.
Before the two parted ways, Aldridge heard Benitez seem to be talking to himself.
"Why can't you be as arrogant as Real Madrid..."
For a moment, Aldrich fell into a petrified state by accident.
Yes, why are Millwall not lost when they go from being penniless to being famous all over the world? With such an increase in status and influence, fame and fortune come to them. Why are they not lost?
Aldrich stood there thinking about this question.
Soon, he found the answer.
He has two lives.
If he didn't have the experience of his previous life and didn't have this advantage, he might have been lost.
It is precisely because I have witnessed the failure of the Galactic Battleship that I may have been wary of it when I experienced it myself.
He walked into the field, hugged and shook hands with the players, congratulated each other, and also went to Gerrard, Owen, Carragher and other former disciples of the national team to give simple words of comfort and encouragement.
After the awards, Millwall held a simple celebration in the stadium, interacted with the fans, and thanked them for coming and cheering.
Millwall's season in England has ended and they have won two championship trophies, the League and the FA Cup.
Next, they rushed non-stop to Paris, France, seizing the time to restore their physical fitness and recharge their batteries to prepare for the pinnacle of the Champions League.
Chelsea arrived in Paris earlier than Millwall. In terms of physical fitness, they have no problem at all. The final game of the league was played in a hurry, not to mention there are still so many days to recover.
Millwall and Chelsea fans have worked hard for this pinnacle of the Champions League.
After Millwall arrived in Paris, outside the hotel where they stayed, at night, Chelsea fans came in groups to make noise and disturb the Millwall players from resting. Similarly, Millwall fans also ran to the hotel where Chelsea were staying.
It's the same pattern outside the hotel.
However, the fans of both teams were dispersed by the Paris police and failed. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!
