Thanks to "The Thief" and "Purple Dawn" for the reward!
--------------------------
The Alpi Stadium burst into cheers, and the cheers of Juventus fans soared into the sky. This made the 11 players on the field at Millwall feel like they had walked into a tiger's den, and were a feast for the beast of Juventus.
After the game restarted, Aldrich adjusted the tactics. The team changed from 4231 defensive counterattack to 433 pressure attack. The most intuitive thing about this adjustment is that the two full-backs are more involved in assists, and the two midfielders are also in advanced positions. Before the attack,
Insert, and the defensive pressing range is expanded.
At the same time, Aldrich asked all the players on the bench except the goalkeeper to warm up.
Juventus must have anticipated the situation after the goal, and they also changed their playing style to be more flexible.
Aren't Millwall going to attack?
We will keep it!
Moreover, the defense is very deep and does not allow for deep attack space. In this way, as long as Millwall makes a counterattack error, the backcourt will be smooth, which is more conducive to the performance of Juventus' offensive players and does not need to invest more troops. Just the trident.
Zidane organizes the midfield and frontcourt, giving Inzaghi and Del Piero more space to improve their personal abilities.
If Millwall doesn't grab aggressively and retreats to defend immediately, then Juventus will be happier. They will play slowly and move forward bit by bit. If the attack fails, then they will retreat and reorganize the attack patiently.
Consume your opponent.
In just 5 minutes from 55 minutes to 60 minutes, Aldridge had an insight into Juventus's wishful thinking. It is not difficult to guess that he would do the same thing in his place. In other words, after being manipulated by Juventus
Before Sri Lanka's goal, there was no difference between the way Millwall and Juventus played now.
You cannot follow the opponent's rhythm. You must first disrupt the rhythm. Even if Millwall cannot control it, Juventus cannot slowly eat away at Millwall's will.
Rob!
Starting from the forward line, it’s a rush!
It is risky to do this, but there is no other way, it must be done.
After Millwall changed their playing style to 433, their own offense has not improved yet. Instead, Juventus has been able to play like a duck in water, and their counterattacks have been flourishing.
Del Piero unreasonably plays a strong attack after getting the ball. When he has space to start, Del Piero at this stage is one of the most ruthless players among forwards!
The ball entered the penalty area, and he passed Capdevila who was defending. Then when Southgate grabbed the ball, he swayed left and right and was about to shoot. Fortunately, Makelele came out from behind, intercepted the ball and returned it.
The pass goalkeeper Bute kicked the ball to Schneider on the other wing.
The German strode forward with the ball.
In the case of the opponent's tight defense, if Millwall wants to break the balance, it cannot pass the ball without attracting the opponent's defensive players. Players on the team must play a role in involving and disrupting the opponent's defense.
Zidane's offense is world-class, but his defense cannot be complimented. After all, the characteristics of the players are there, and there is no need to be too demanding. God is always fair, and a player cannot be a combination of Nesta and Maradona.
Therefore, he symbolically moved to the wing. As soon as Schneider increased his speed, he left Zidane behind. Schneider was still dribbling the ball forward. When he stepped forward to assist, he suddenly felt troublesome.
Juventus's defense is very solid. Four defenders and three midfielders retreat to form a barrier. The two defense lines form a tightly integrated iron chain. Schneider rushes along the side, just to attract the opponent's midfielder.
Come to force him. But they don’t force him. They rely on compressing the space to maintain
The distance from his teammates and the defensive center of gravity was slightly tilted, Schneider dribbled the ball to the bottom of the wing. Then he faced Pessotto's frontal interception. At this time, he could only make a pass, but Juventus'
The defense was well prepared and competing for headers was not a test at all for them.
The offensive routine of Millwall's offensive players passing, cutting and running quickly is completely unable to shake Juventus' chain defense, because the opponent simply does not give you space to tear through the defense line layer by layer.
When the ball holder combined with passing and cutting movements, the opponent's defensive player pressed the receiving player from behind as soon as the ball holder passed the ball. As a result, Millwall's passing and cutting could not proceed smoothly.
On the contrary, Juventus' counterattacks became more threatening every time. Zidane passed Pirlo in the midfield, who was rushing to counterattack, and used a dazzling Marseille spin to avoid Makelele, and then handed the ball to him as he advanced.
Inzaghi succeeded in countering offside. Seeing that Inzaghi was about to go to the meeting alone, luckily Bute abandoned the goal in time and destroyed the ball with his big kick, otherwise Juventus would have likely expanded their lead.
Millwall's pressing offense and defense require the goalkeeper to not only participate in the offense, but also take on the role of sweeper when defending. In other words, he is the sweeper goalkeeper. When the opponent breaks through the defense, the goalkeeper must anticipate and expand the defense.
area, playing the role of scavenger.
Bute did a good job just now, but Aldrich didn't have time to praise his performance.
The game has reached the 75th minute, with less than 15 minutes left.
He called Ballack in front of him, then put his arm around his shoulders and began to arrange the tasks after playing.
"After playing, you and Nedvěd will play as a double attacking midfielder. Our formation will be 4222. Pay 100% attention to read the game. Not only must you observe the forward movement, but also pay attention to Nedvěd's position.
, he rushes to the front line, and you are the coordinator. If he receives the ball and connects, you have to move forward to threaten the opponent's goal. Do you understand?"
Barak nodded expressionlessly.
Aldridge replaced Shevchenko with Ballack, and asked Larsson and Trezeguet to play as double forwards. The formation was 4222 to strengthen the attack in the middle.
Originally, the wing attack is a match between the full-back and the opponent's full-back, but the opponent's full-back position is not pressing forward. If Millwall needs to pass the ball, the full-back can complete the pass in advance in the full-midfield area. There is no need to do so.
Go to the opponent's full-back.
The position is 4222, how to run is the key.
In particular, the two attacking midfielders Ballack and Nedvěd, swapping positions with the two forwards and intersecting in reverse directions, are the key to whether Millwall can score a goal.
After this substitution was completed, in the next 5 minutes, Millwall's two full-backs frequently used crosses to the goal to threaten the opponent.
The tactical purpose is relatively clear, which is to lure the snake out of its hole.
After all, there are many good players in the middle who can header the ball. Larsson Trezeguet, Nedvěd, and Ballack are all powerful players who can header the ball in front of the goal.
However, Juventus' defense remained motionless and even shrunk even more. The full-backs also shrunk the penalty area and left Millwall wide.
If a cross ball can penetrate Serie A's top defense, wouldn't it be too disrespectful?
Lippi sat steadily and smoked a cigar leisurely, seemingly not worried about the situation of the game at all.
Millwall's offensive was thunderous but not rainy, and the actual threat was negligible. Lippi had no sense of urgency. On the contrary, there was another inexplicable determination in his strange and unclear eyes.
In the 82nd minute of the game, Millwall hit the opponent's goal with another wave of attacks, but Larsson took the ball with his back and was fiercely intercepted by Montero. Immediately afterwards, Juventus launched a seemingly devastating counterattack!
Deschamps and Conte used a one-two to get rid of Nedved's counterattack, and then Zidane and Conte played a one-two to get rid of Pirlo. Zidane dribbled the ball forward and passed the ball in front of Makelele.
The pass was passed to Davis. At this time, there were only four people left in Millwall's defense. Capdevila, who assisted, was chasing back at full speed.
Zidane moved to the left, with Inzaghi at the forefront. Del Piero moved to the right where there was a lot of space in Millwall's defense. Davis dribbled the ball forward, and Makelele kept retreating, and he had to be distracted.
Conte rushes up, Juventus 5 on 4!
"Juventus counterattacks! This is an excellent opportunity. They suddenly exerted force when Millwall pressed back before the attack. This will be a key attack!"
Makelele still did not attack, but retreated to protect the space according to the opponent's offensive focus. Davis had to pass the ball, otherwise even if Millwall only had four defensive players, if they were to shrink in the penalty area, Juventus would
Sri Lanka may not be able to play a better offensive, he just has to play fast!
He saw Del Piero's position and then passed the ball there, but on the passing route, Southgate suddenly burst out and intercepted the ball accurately.
Piero was so angry that he opened his hands in a mad gesture.
Pass it on early!
Southgate's steal was crucial, and he used a retreat to confuse Davis when returning to defense. He predicted the timing just right. Even looking back in slow motion, he consciously made the move before Davis passed the ball.
Go forward and intercept the passing lane.
"This attack failed. It's a pity. Juventus missed an opportunity to expand the score. Lippi stood up for the first time in the game. He was very dissatisfied with this counterattack. It could be seen from his expression.
, he knows that if this attack can be successful, Juventus will destroy Millwall's will!"
There are six or seven minutes left in the game, and it is estimated that it will not exceed 10 minutes including stoppage time, because the second half of the game went very smoothly without too many fouls and delays.
Aldridge stood on the sidelines with his hands on his hips, and the offense seemed to be unable to do anything. Millwall's offense seemed fierce, but in fact it did not pose much of a threat.
Desperate situation, a desperate situation that I have never experienced before!
This feeling made him feel helpless, confused, and at a loss.
What should he do?
Have you given up?
Juventus is outrageously old-fashioned.
Offensive and defensive, the counterattack just now fell short. Lippi's anger is justified. Juventus has been brewing for so long, and they are also trying to seduce Millwall to attack violently, press forward, and then suddenly break out a wave of counterattacks, but in the end they were unsuccessful.
, that opportunity just now was a hundred times better than their chance of scoring a goal!
Aldridge didn't know whether he should imitate Guardiola at this time and went to congratulate Lippi in advance.
This confused thought only existed in his mind for a moment. He shook his head and said in his heart: Damn it, I don't want to congratulate the other party. Now is not the time to be hypocritical!
At the end of the game, if you show your grace hypocritically, Aldrich will have no problem, but now the game is not over yet, and he has encountered unprecedented difficulties. Aldrich doesn't want to bow his head, no!
If God will grant Millwall a miracle, then Aldridge must take the initiative to strive for this miracle to happen!
Millwall haven't given it all yet!
Taking advantage of the opportunity of a dead ball, Aldridge roughly called Schneider to him from the sidelines and almost grabbed the opponent's jersey and dragged him in front of him.
Schneider was startled by Aldrich's actions and thought he had angered his boss by not performing well.
"Bernd, from the next second onwards, never cross, take the ball inside, cut inside, and then cooperate with your teammates and convey the same words to Capdevila!"
Schneider nodded after hearing this, then quickly ran to Helgra and repeated Aldrich's request. Helgra conveyed it to Southgate, and Southgate conveyed it to Capdevila.
.
With less than 5 minutes left in the game, Aldrich loosened his tie, showing a stubborn and ferocious look on his face.
Juventus, let’s bet on who’s tougher!
After Millwall makes further adjustments, seven players will be deployed in the offense to press the entire line. In defense, the two defenders plus a single midfielder will face Juventus's double forwards and single midfielder. In this way, if one-on-one
If so, Juventus will definitely have the upper hand, even if Makelele defends
He is a master, but against Zidane, he is definitely not as good as the opponent. Helguera and Southgate, against Del Piero and Inzaghi, if they are attacked by the opponent, they will be far behind in speed.
With such a large space in the backcourt, the chance of Millwall's defense being overwhelmed is extremely high.
Lippi saw the two full-backs of Millwall pressing the center line to defend, and they were still supporting from the wing when attacking. When the opponent jumped over the wall and was about to do something random, he asked the offensive players to recover and strengthen the defense, but still maintained the counterattack.
