When Platini saw Millwall's pre-match press conference before their trip to Italy at UEFA headquarters, he was furious at the headquarters!
Aldrich has made his words clear!
If you have the ability, change the rules immediately!
Otherwise, when I defend my Champions League title in three months, UEFA will still obediently hand over the authentic Champions League trophy!
But if UEFA really changes the rules at this juncture, it will definitely be laughed at by the world!
Platini, who has just made his debut, is under a lot of pressure, especially in the Champions League, where the giants are still the dominant group. △￠
Especially Premier League teams.
Millwall, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea.
The Premier League has won four of the top 16 places!
And because of the draw rules for the top 16, they will not meet each other. According to the strong momentum of the Premier League at this time, the Premier League may occupy half of the top 8 places. Even if UEFA uses their hands and feet to let them fight against each other, they can break into the top four.
, there will still be two Premier League teams!
What he promised seems unlikely to be fulfilled in the short term.
The top priority before him is: if Millwall wins the Champions League four times in a row, UEFA will not only have to go through a loop and award the genuine trophy to Millwall, which would be ridiculous, but at the same time, the European pattern may be even more difficult to change.
Walqiang will also increase the attention he brings to the Premier League. On the contrary, the Premier League is a league, and the distribution system will also benefit other teams. Unlike La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona are exclusive to the other 18 teams.
Benefit.
Alone in the dead of night, Platini's murmur echoed in his heart: Millwall cannot be allowed to defend the title... Millwall cannot be allowed to defend the title...
On February 21st, Millwall was a guest to challenge Inter Milan. This was the second consecutive season that the two teams met in the European competition. As the biggest beneficiary of the "Calciogate" incident, Inter Milan's lineup strength was well supplemented.
Strong, such as the introduction of Zlatan Ibrahimovic on the front line, the hiring of Maicon from Ligue 1, the magical signing of Grosso, etc.
Mancini created a 4312 formation that seemed to be very powerful for Inter Milan in the Italian arena. It dominated the league and was praised by the outside world for his technical and tactical system.
In fact, to put it bluntly, Inter Milan's overall strength can crush other opponents in the league, it's that simple. It doesn't make much sense to talk about the technical and tactical advantages and disadvantages when there is a huge disparity in strength.
Millwall will play in the League Cup final four days later on the weekend, so they will be slightly conservative in the first leg of this Champions League knockout round. However, on the scene, the Serie A leader lost face at home and was completely suppressed by Millwall!
Aldridge's request before the game was simple: there may not be many great opportunities, but you must seize them!
They did not play a devastating rhythm, but focused on control.
But at the end of the 90-minute match, the score was 0:0.
Aldridge was furious when he returned to the locker room after the game.
Messi and Ronaldo were scolded by him!
"Is this your performance? You all want to score goals yourself? But what? You can't score! Why don't your teammates pass the ball when they have the chance? Why do you have to force your kick when someone is blocking your shot? You have failed your teammates.
Your efforts! You let me down so much! Selfish devils! Remember that. Millwall's
The interests of the team always come first! When you return to the club, your vacation is cancelled. Go and stay in the youth team locker room! Take a good look at the slogan on the wall, the slogan you have read countless times in the youth team.
: Playing for yourself means playing for your opponent! Playing for the team means playing for yourself!"
Aldridge usually doesn't get angry, but when he got angry, even the onlookers were silent. Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi didn't dare to refute anything, and followed the team out of Milan with their heads lowered and slightly frustrated.
Although the 0:0 result is a bit disappointing, for Millwall, the advantage of advancing is still on their side. When they return to home two weeks later, they can advance to the quarterfinals as long as they defeat Inter Milan.
After returning to London, Messi and Ronaldo did not dare to disobey Aldrich's orders. Other players had a day off and they went to the youth team, which attracted the attention of youth team players such as Bale and Royce, but they
Wearing casual clothes, we came to the locker room and sat quietly on the bench looking up at the slogans on the wall. The slogans had been posted on the wall for many years. The two occasionally chatted and exchanged words. For the time being,
Easing the battle between the two men!
When it came to the weekend's League Cup final, Aldrich still sent Ronaldo and Messi on the field at the same time. He didn't say anything, but both Ronaldo and Messi understood that this League Cup final was a test for them!
If he continues his "selfish" performance against Inter Milan in midweek, he will most likely be abandoned by Aldridge!
The reason is very simple, I didn't win.
To win, nothing is a problem.
If you can't win, any small problem is a big problem!
Having already "taught" Hiddink in the league, Aldridge faced off against Hiddink again in the League Cup final today.
Millwall's strong midfield control, coupled with the outstanding performance of the new attack group, especially Ronaldo and Messi are no longer "selfish", Millwall's offense has regained its vitality, the ball moves very quickly, and personal breakthroughs are also possible
Just right, coupled with Kaka and Villa's go-between in the middle and the offensive focus shifting to them from time to time, Millwall defeated Chelsea 2:0 in 90 minutes to win the League Cup. Ronaldo and Messi each established a
achievement.
During the celebration of winning the championship, Aldridge emphasized the team's philosophy to them again, and it seemed that this game also proved the correctness of their criticism in midweek.
See, when you play for yourself, you can't score and your team can't win.
When you played for the team, you scored goals, we won, and now we celebrate the championship with the trophy!
Riding on the momentum of winning the League Cup, Millwall sent substitutes to the main team in the league to recharge their batteries. Ten days later, they faced Inter Milan at the Lion King Stadium.
March 8.
The Lion King Stadium is packed with people. Millwall fans have no worries about this game. As long as they defeat their opponents, they can advance. Just looking at Inter Milan's offense in the first round, even with Adriano and Ibrahimovic, they are like towering stars.
forward, but their offense is very weak, due to the disadvantage of midfield control.
Aldridge originally had a normal attitude towards this game, but on the day of the game, UEFA suddenly changed the referee team. On the grounds that the previously designated referee was unwell, when he saw the temporary referee
, his face looked very ugly.
He would never forget this man. Although his memory was very vague, after seeing him now, he had an ominous premonition.
The referee is: Tom Herning!
The deal was done, and Aldridge couldn't protest out of thin air. When he walked into the stadium, he tried to comfort himself: everything was a coincidence, how could there be so many conspiracy theories? Don't mess up!
When he walked into the Lion King Stadium, there was always a wave of cheers from the fans as he came out.
Aldridge walked over to shake hands with Mancini. Mancini was very proud of himself in Serie A, but when he came to the Champions League, he was walking on thin ice mentally. He tried his best not to let his timidity be exposed in front of Aldridge.
Players from both teams came out in high spirits.
"The second leg of the 1/8 finals of the 2006-2007 Champions League is about to begin. The defending champion Millwall faces Inter Milan at home. In the first leg, the two teams shook hands 0:0 at Meazza. Today, they will play in the Lion King
A life and death battle on the court!
Let's take a look at the starting lineups of both sides.
The habit he has developed over the years has allowed Aldridge to fully focus on the game once the game begins.
Usually such concentration will automatically ignore the existence of the referee. The most perfect referee should be invisible.
Accompanied by the massive cheers from the Lion King Stadium, Millwall quickly launched an offensive at home!
The players on the team entered the game very quickly. They picked up the tempo right from the start, passing the ball quickly, moving back and forth, and tearing apart the opponent's defense.
After two horizontal transitions back and forth in the frontcourt, the ball came to Messi's feet. The Argentine genius who has established his main position this season began to show his simple, practical and unsolvable extraordinary skills!
He stopped the ball from the right sideline and started, took a step back to get rid of Cambiaso who came up to intercept, then cut inside to get rid of Cambiaso, with Vieira assisting in defense and Grosso closing in to defend.
At this moment, Messi continued to accelerate the dribbling, rushed between the two of them, and avoided Vieira's shovel!
When he came to the penalty area, Messi stopped sticking to the ball. As Vieira's defense was broken through, the space in the middle was already available. He immediately passed the ball to Villa who was running towards the center position!
Just as he passed the ball with his foot, someone stretched out his foot from in front of him and stepped on his ankle, causing him to scream and fall to the ground!
Villa knew what to do when he was running. He kicked the ball and gently knocked the ball to his side in front of Materazzi. Kaka came out from behind him, led the ball into the penalty area, and scored a single goal.
ball!
However, the referee's whistle sounded!
A foul was awarded to Inter Milan!
Kaka ignored the whistle, and almost in the next second, he violently volleyed the ball straight into the net!
After the goal, Kaka turned around and found that the goal was invalid, while Messi fell in pain outside the penalty area, covering his face with one hand and slapping the turf with the other. Cordoba, who was standing in front of him, spread his hands to indicate that he did not foul intentionally!
Referee Herning signaled Millwall to get a free kick outside the penalty area, but he only gave Cordoba a verbal warning and did not even show a yellow card! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better updated.
