Real Madrid equalized the score and can stabilize their mentality.
The game lasted for more than an hour, and they gradually became familiar with the rhythm of the field. Especially when they began to give up the initiative, they were determined to counterattack from the wing. Capello played the Italian defense for this Real Madrid last season.
The foundation begins to work.
Millwall's offense is still fierce and powerful. Their passing, cutting and running are pleasing to the eye, and their offense is smooth and smooth. Especially the sudden acceleration in front of Real Madrid's threatening area shows the maturity of a team.
However, today's striker seemed to have forgotten to bring his shooting boots. Millwall, who had far more shots than Real Madrid, was unable to score a second goal.
Nedvěd's movement was exactly the same as his goal in the first half. He once again outflanked him at the back door, but this time he ran to the right, with Shevchenko covering him and Larsson on the other side.
Passing the ball, Real Madrid consciously noticed Nedvěd, but the initiative went up and down
In the second half of the shot, Nedvěd still got the chance, but he no longer had the shooting angle. Ilgner and Sanchis blocked him from the front and left. Nedved did not choose to shoot this time, but returned.
The knock was given to Shevchenko who ran out of space and was unmarked, and Ukraine's nuclear warhead fired angrily!
He still consciously hit the ball on the other side of the goal, and Ilgner would definitely not be able to save it!
Bang!
The ball hit the goal post again and bounced off the baseline.
After Shevchenko shot, he knelt on the ground with a look of remorse on his face. This God-given opportunity, he failed to send the ball into the goal.
Nedvěd walked over and pulled him up, saying nothing and then prepared to fight for the corner kick.
Pirlo's corner kick was well placed, but Nedvěd was defeated by Hierro in the scramble and Real Madrid headed the ball to clear the ball.
Raul got the ball outside the penalty area and distributed the ball to the left without looking.
Carlos repeats the forward scene. He dribbles the ball forward and Real Madrid counterattacks!
The counterattack was fast and accurate. Carlos passed the midfield and made a long diagonal pass. Makelele and Capdevila, who were trailing behind, double-teamed Morientes. As a result, he was tall and powerful.
Morientes just grabbed the ball despite being double-teamed. Originally trying to catch the high ball, Makelele and Capdevila were at a disadvantage when they met Morientes, and Morientes kept trying.
The ball is returned directly with a header.
Mijatovic followed up and passed the ball through to Morientes. This combination made Millwall's defense completely lose their temper. Because Mijatovic passed the ball over the top, Morientes
As soon as Si turned around and squeezed Capdevila away, he headed directly towards the goal despite Makelele's harassment.
Bang!
The ball also hit the far post, but bounced into the goal.
Real Madrid relied on counterattacks to simply and brutally reverse the score!
All the Real Madrid fans in the Amsterdam Arena stood up and cheered, while the Lions fans were stunned and froze in place.
This is so unbearable!
Millwall's offensive attack is really beautiful to watch, and it's the pinnacle of the game.
But Real Madrid went on an unreasonable rampage and reversed the score!
It was Carlos who posed another threat on the left. This counterattack was very much in the style of Italian football. There were not many offensive troops. Not counting Raul's pass to Carlos, the entire counterattack only consisted of three people, launching from the wing.
On the offensive, the two strikers on the front line cooperate and everything is done within five seconds.
It is not unreasonable for Heynckes to like to use high center forwards. And facing the "only" weakness of Millwall's overall defense, which is obviously not high enough, Morientes' natural advantages were maximized.
"Real Madrid reversed the score in the 69th minute of the game. Now they lead Millwall 2:1. In the first 70 minutes, Millwall took the offensive initiative. They also played very exciting offensive football, but the football game was not
It’s not who attacks harder or plays better with each other that determines the outcome. Real Madrid took advantage of the few opportunities.
, In contrast, Millwall wasted several good opportunities in front of the goal. If they could score two of those balls that hit the crossbar and the goal post, I am afraid that Real Madrid would have no chance, and Hall might be able to score.
On reflection, why didn’t the team shrink back when leading 1:0? Of course. Fans and spectators want to enjoy an offensive battle from beginning to end.”
Aldrich stood on the sidelines with a calm expression. For some reason, at this moment, there was no panic or loss in his heart.
On the contrary, he was excited!
Did Heynckes teach him a lesson?
No, there is no such feeling.
Originally, Millwall's tactics today were to take the extreme route. Either I will destroy you and beat you to a pulp, or the space behind me after my pressing attack will become a natural corridor for the opponent to counterattack. If the opponent can seize the opportunity to counterattack, then they will lose.
The ball has nothing to complain about either.
Even if he lost the game like this, Aldridge didn't regret it. Compared with losing the game using a mediocre and conservative tactic, that would look very useless.
And the game is not over yet. It is not that Millwall's offense cannot open up the situation, but it is just a hair away from scoring. As long as they continue to accumulate offensive advantages, the forwards can be calmer and improve the quality of their shots. There are still 20 minutes left to score a goal.
It's not a luxury.
However, Real Madrid is ahead, will Heynckes make adjustments?
Of course it will.
Heynckes asked Real Madrid's frontcourt players to collect on the sidelines, and Raul also returned to the midfield and backcourt to harass the opponent's midfield organization.
Three minutes after the game restarted, Aldridge had an insight into Real Madrid's changes and decisively gestured to the players on the field. The players understood clearly that under the premise that Real Madrid's defensive strength was more than before, they were originally in a good mood.
Shuiqi's offense will encounter greater obstacles, which will affect the quality of the offense. Then, the team's offense needs to be slightly changed.
As long as Real Madrid holds on for 15 more minutes, they will win the European Champions Cup again after 32 years!
Millwall's previous offensive attack was a bit difficult. The most intuitive thing is that Pirlo was stuck with Raul and his performance began to decline.
However, Millwall's tactical adjustments worked at this moment.
After Pirlo got the ball, he directly handed it to Makelele. Makelele passed the ball back. Helguera picked up the ball at the back line. After a one-two with Makelele, he continued to move forward. He strode the ball across the ball.
Midfield line.
Raul was originally tracking Pirlo, but when he saw Helguera dribbling the ball forward from a position three meters away from him, he gave up on Pirlo and went after Helguera.
This central defender dribbles the ball forward, isn't he afraid of losing the ball?
As soon as Raul moved, Helguera immediately passed the ball back to Pirlo. Raul turned around to harass Pirlo, and Pirlo kicked the ball back to Helguera, another one-two.
Makelele retreated almost parallel to Southgate. After Pirlo passed the ball, he also retreated and stood in the defensive midfielder area.
Helguera continued to move forward, and Kalembu on his side ran over to grab the ball from him. Helguera split the ball to the side, and Capdevila dribbled the ball forward along the wing.
When Kalembu helped defend the wing again, Capdevila passed the ball across the penalty area. Nedvěd ran to catch the ball before Redondo. Without stopping the ball, he passed the ball through and the ball passed through.
Real Madrid's entire defense, and a Millwall player got the ball in the penalty area!
The players of Real Madrid were shocked and looked at the player who broke through their defense with a look of disbelief.
Elgra?
Why haven't your mother gone back yet?
The central defender rushes to this position and is desperate!
Panucci rushed into the penalty area at full speed, and Hierro also blocked Helguera's shooting angle. However, although Helguera got a good shooting position, he really didn't dare to shoot for fear that he would waste the opportunity of this attack.
Good opportunity.
When Hierro moved to his front right position to compress his shooting angle, Helguera calmly passed the ball to the defensive space between Hierro and Sanchis.
Trezeguet attracted the attention of Sanchis, but Larsson was unmarked at this moment. He rushed forward to meet the ball and pushed the ball.
I really don’t dare to exert any force!
I was frightened by the beams and doorposts.
Larsson tried to push the ball safely into the dead center of the goal, but the force was not strong but the angle was tricky. Ilgner was really helpless this time, the distance was too close, and he could no longer reach the ball when he fell to the ground.
He watched helplessly as the ball hit the blind spot and penetrated into the bottom of the goal net.
"Millwall quickly equalized the score! The person who scored the goal was Larsson! The assist was an unexpected player. The central defender Helguera! Millwall's attack was started by Helguera from the back.
The line started all the way, and the opponent's defense was torn apart by continuous one-two coordination. Real Madrid
Delhi's defensive players seemed to have a collective brain failure. They may have had an illusion: Is Helguera crazy? He rushed up all the way and was counterattacked once he lost the ball. Can Millwall's defense withstand it? But we
Looking back at the entire attack from the panoramic lens replay discovery: Millwall
Played a classic total attack and total defense combination! As Helgra moved forward, his role and the roles of his teammates were constantly changing. He changed from central defender to defensive midfielder, midfielder, and then
He became an attacking midfielder and moved forward, while Makelele retreated to the back line and took over the role of central defender.
Pirlo became a defensive midfielder, and Nedvěd also retreated to play the role of midfielder after the through ball. Even if they were hit on the counterattack, Millwall was not short of people in various defensive positions. It is in such a role
In the tacit cooperation, Real Madrid's defense was completely blown away by Millwall!"
Larsson saw the ball rolling into the goal, and the referee indicated that the goal was valid. He smiled with relief, then ran into the goal, picked up the ball and ran backwards, with no intention of celebrating.
As Larson ran back with the ball in his arms, his teammates ran over to him to high-five him or give him a simple hug.
There are just over ten minutes left in the game, and Millwall must strive to score another goal, otherwise their physical fitness will be almost reached its limit.
Aldridge did not celebrate, but wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked around in a circle and asked the players on the bench to warm up.
He didn't want to play overtime, but now it was almost 80 minutes and the score was still tied. He had to prepare for overtime.
Helguera advanced all the way into the opponent's penalty area. The attack just now was a surprise attack. It will be very difficult to copy. Real Madrid suffered a loss once and it is impossible to be fooled again.
Heynckes also asked the substitutes to warm up. The conflict between him and Suker was mainly due to Suker's physical problems. But at this point in the game, Suker would definitely win no matter what, ten minutes or overtime.
no problem.
Mijatovic + Suker + Raul.
This is the Real Madrid front three under the coaching of Capello last season. The offensive end switches back and forth between 12 and 21.
Heynckes plans to let this combination go into battle at this time, and as for the others, they will focus on defense.
Real Madrid made the first substitution. Davo Suker, who can play the violin with his left foot, came on to replace Morientes. Apart from that goal, Morientes didn't have much highlights throughout the game.
Under the premise of Real Madrid's defense, Millwall's physical fitness also began to expose problems. After going all out for more than 80 minutes, the youngest Pirlo reached the stage of running out of gas. Aldridge also made a substitution, using Ballack.
Replaced Pirlo.
After these two substitutions, the game became dull. Millwall replaced the midfield commander, the core of the offensive and defensive transition, so Ballack had to be given time to adapt and still follow the previous fast-paced play. Once
Ballack cannot adapt, and his mistakes in this position will be fatal.
Under such circumstances, both teams were afraid of conceding the ball, and the game moved step by step towards overtime.
