May 14
The final game of the 1999-2000 English Premier League season.
Millwall plays at home against relegated Milton Keynes Dons.
The Lion's Den Stadium, with a capacity of less than 20,000, was fully occupied. The entire stadium's stands were rendered in dark blue, and it was almost impossible to find any spectators not wearing Lions jerseys.
This was the final game for Millwall's first team at the Lion's Den.
The competitive significance of the game itself was directly ignored, because Millwall had already won the championship in advance and the opponent was determined to be relegated.
All members of the Hall family were present and watched the game in the box, and the guests presenting the FA awards also arrived as scheduled. It was a rare occasion today for many great people to visit this small temple at the Lion's Den Stadium.
The Puskas couple were invited to the box, where they drank red wine with Arthur and waited for the game to start. In the VIP seats, Yiwen and Rosie also waited for the game to start.
Rosie glanced at the Lion's Den Stadium. In fact, she was not a pure football fan. She knew about football, but didn't understand it. In her sensory impression, the Lion's Den Stadium looked very shabby, unlike those magnificent stadiums with three double-decker interiors.
The stands and seating facilities are almost the same as those in public stadiums.
But today she felt the fanatical atmosphere unique to football here.
The stadium reverberated with singing without stopping for a moment. The song repeatedly sung by the Lions fans in the stadium was Millwall's team anthem: No one likes us, it doesn't matter!
Perhaps it would be best to bid farewell to the Lion's Den with this song that belongs to them.
In addition to the singing, what shocked her the most was the scene in the stands. Half an hour before the start of the game, starting from the south stand, a huge portrait began to pass in the stands, with Aldrich in the center, and behind him
There are all members of Millwall's first team. This huge portrait is completely hand-painted, depicting the characters' expressions vividly.
The fans are completely amusing themselves, using their own way to bid farewell to the Lion's Den era at Millwall.
When players from both sides began to enter the stadium, every time the on-site staff called out the name of a Millwall player, they received huge cheers from the fans in the Lion's Den Stadium stands.
"The final game of this season may not have a big impact on the entire league. The three relegated teams will be determined in advance before the final game. The league champion, runner-up, and third runner-up will not change again. Perhaps the biggest suspense is the league
Who will finish fourth, Leeds United or Liverpool? The last Champions League qualifier will be born between the two teams. For Millwall,
They have won the championship ahead of schedule, and today is more like holding a ceremony to bid farewell to their historic Lion's Den Stadium. Next season, they will move to a new stadium and usher in a new era. At the same time, if they win the game today,
Their league points will reach a record 100 points, and the number of goals scored, the number of goals conceded, and the goal difference will almost set a new Premier League record."
Players from both sides are ready to kick off. Except for Henry's starting appearance, Millwall's other main players are taking turns to prepare for the FA Cup final and the Champions League final.
There is no suspense about Henry winning the Premier League Golden Boot. Compared with the scorer lists in other European leagues, it is certain that he will win the European Golden Boot. However, he still insists on starting in this league and wants to increase his number of goals as much as possible.
.
Aldridge met his demands at the cost of the FA Cup final. Henry could only sit on the bench.
Aldridge was more relaxed today. He sat on the coaching bench and chatted with Klinsmann, smiling from time to time.
Milkydons have been relegated, and they are defenseless when they come to the Lion's Den Stadium. Most of the players on the field are thinking about their future. The club has been relegated from the top league, and there will definitely be big moves in the summer.
Millwall broke the deadlock in the 17th minute, with Glenchard's long shot blasting open the opponent's goal.
No one doubts that Millwall will encounter Waterloo in this final game. After all, apart from the significance of competition, Millwall has a stronger fighting spirit than the visiting team.
Everyone hopes for a perfect ending, and bidding farewell to this stadium with a victory is what these players want to do.
Millwall scored three goals in the first half, killing the game directly.
Henry scored one with a header and Larmour also scored one.
In the second half, Henry scored twice through penalty kicks, raising his league goal tally to 38.
When the whistle sounded at the end of the game, the score displayed on the scoreboard was 5:0.
"Congratulations to Millwall. They have performed fantastically this season. They have remained unbeaten in 38 league games, won 31 games and drawn 7 points, and scored 100 points. The total number of goals in the league has reached 113, and they are only one short of reaching the goal.
Average of 3 goals and conceding at the same time
The number is only 18. This is a team of kings with gorgeous offense and tough defense. They are unbeaten in 48 games across the season and may continue to break the record, making them the most watched team in Europe. No one, no one!
They are the whole European football team now
The focus of discussion! Henry, the top scorer in the Premier League, has played 36 times this season and scored 38 goals. His efficiency has reached more than one goal per game, which is perfect. He also ranks first in the Champions League scorer list. Taking into account the final opponent Wallen
There is no player in the West Asian team who can threaten his top scorer. There is no doubt that Henry will be the top scorer in the league and the Champions League this season! Fans of the Wild Lions do not need to be sad. Saying goodbye to the Lion's Den Stadium is not a sign of darkness, on the contrary.
, is a new starting point for Millwall to continue to create a prosperous dynasty!"
Not a single Lions fan stood up and left after the game. They stood side by side and jumped up and down in the stands. Many of them took photos with digital cameras, and many of them raised slogans again.
Millwall players walked into the stadium one after another, and the live camera recorded the hug between Larson and Henry.
Of these two, one scored 38 goals and the other scored 29 goals. Unfortunately, Larson finally fell behind Phillips' 30 goals and ranked third on the scorer list.
However, Millwall's two forwards have scored 67 goals in the league together. If Ronaldinho's 16 goals are also included, Millwall's front three have scored a total of 83 goals. This data will definitely be
Forever recorded in history.
The reputation of Shearer Sutton's SAS combination has become a thing of the past, and now people only need to remember the invincibility of Henry + Larsson.
Since the team still has two finals to play, there will be no celebration for winning the championship. They will only celebrate on the spot today. When they return home today, the players will have to re-adjust their state to prepare for the upcoming FA Cup and Champions League.
finals.
Aldridge, Klinsmann, and Jensen walked into the stadium and thanked the fans for their support. Then, like seasoned veterans, the three of them stood together and chatted casually, waiting for the FA award.
When Southgate won the Premier League championship trophy, the fans at the scene shouted loudly, and the momentum went straight to the sky. The championship song echoed in the stadium, and fireworks were scattered in the stadium.
Aldridge was invited to take photos with some of the players' families. When Arthur walked onto the court with Bert and Earl in his arms, Aldridge trotted over to pick up his two sons and kissed their faces one after another.
, and then let them hold one side of the Premier League championship trophy on the left and the other on the right. The two little guys wore tailor-made Millwall jerseys, and after taking a group photo, they crawled and played on the grass.
My nephew Bowen ran over to participate and automatically stepped into the role of "big brother", taking care of his two "younger brothers" who were less than one year old and preventing them from having accidents on the lawn.
Just after Aldridge hugged Andrew, he suddenly saw Ronaldinho holding a large wine glass. It was probably because the players had opened champagne to celebrate.
Ronaldinho walked toward Aldrich with a smirk on his face and obviously had bad intentions.
Aldrich shook his head slightly at him and thought smugly: Another move?
There is no doubt that Ronaldinho wanted to pour all the wine on him.
Aldrich turned around and ran away, but he just took two steps with a look of astonishment on his face.
In front of him, Southgate and Materazzi took the lead and blocked his way with grins and holding large wine glasses that were thirty centimeters high.
Aldrich turned around and ran to the left, but Larson Henry and many teammates blocked his path.
Aldrich is like a trapped animal with no way to escape. Whichever way he goes, the "door" on that side will be closed.
No, he didn't run anymore, but turned his head and looked to the right. As expected, Gattuso and Pirlo also blocked his way. Behind him, Ronaldinho, Lamore and others closed the gap, leaving Aldridge alone.
The ground stood in the middle, and the Millwall players formed a circle.
This scene made the fans in the stands burst into laughter.
Many fans whistled and cheered while laughing heartily.
"Boss, I love you!"
Nedved confessed his love to Aldrich solemnly, and then raised the big wine glass mercilessly over Aldrich's head, filling the glass with wine. No, the wine glass was too big. It was no bigger than an ordinary bottle of wine.
There is no difference in capacity.
Aldrich didn't resist and was soaked in the rain, but he didn't expect that this was just the beginning.
"Boss, I love you!"
Uh-huh...
"Boss..."
Wow...
Aldrich could hardly hear the outside world. He had wine in his ears, and his whole body was soaked. He looked in an unprecedented state of embarrassment!
Amid the laughter of the players, they fled in all directions.
Aldrich wiped his face and just took off his suit. At this time, a fan who ran into the stadium from nowhere snatched the suit from his hand. What's more, someone behind him also took off his shirt.
Aldridge almost had to hold on to the belt tightly to avoid being "skinned alive" by the enthusiastic fans who rushed into the stadium.
After the security guard caught the fans who rushed into the stadium, Aldrich was naked from the waist up. He had his hands on his hips and didn't know whether to be angry or laughing. His expression was extremely helpless, but he couldn't help but smile.
Although he is not a player, he still has a strong physique. The eight-pack abs and the graceful upper body that once drove Melanie crazy were displayed in front of the audience. Before Aldridge took two steps, he immediately
He was surrounded and photographers on the sidelines filmed him...
Yiwen and Rosie walked into the venue when the awards were presented, staring at Aldrich from a distance. Yiwen had a delicate smile on his face, as if looking at Aldrich like this would make him feel satisfied, while Rosie had a weird look on her face.
.
"Yi Wen, he was sitting on the coaching bench chatting today. Why is he so popular now?"
At least Rosie feels that in football matches, the players are the focus.
Yiwen whispered softly: "Because you don't understand football, you don't understand his world."
Millwall has set a series of records this season, and Aldridge no longer needs to be in the spotlight on the sidelines. He is the best coach in contemporary Europe.
And can those outstanding players in the team still be so brilliant after leaving Millwall?
I won’t assume according to the article, it’s not necessary. Anyway, the Wild Lion will continue to be brilliant because Aldrich is here.
The carnival at the Lion's Den continued into the evening, and this was also the team's last indulgence for the players.
