Cristiano Ronaldo is a training model among Millwall's new generation of players.
He must work hard and not waste every second, but these trainings can only improve his skills and physical fitness, and such training improvement is a long process that requires hard work day and night, combined with the competition at a certain period in the future.
An opportunity for qualitative change appeared, and a gorgeous transformation was completed in one fell swoop.
Such training cannot be rushed, and it is impossible to compress five years of training into one year. If this is the case, maybe he will be destroyed and the physical load will exceed his ability. Therefore, the Millwall coaching staff
Cristiano Ronaldo’s advice the most is: Rest more! Stop training! Balance work with rest!
After not taking a good rest after a game last month but secretly training more and straining himself, Cristiano Ronaldo also realized that no matter how hard he worked and trained day and night, he could not reverse the fatigue of his body. Aldrich also expressed his feelings towards him.
It is very clear: if you continue to train with such a huge amount, then you will have no chance of playing in the game!
The reason is very simple. You cannot devote 100% of your energy to training. Otherwise, what will you use to compete? On the contrary, training is to prepare for the competition.
Cristiano Ronaldo's training began to become regular, and his professional attitude could ensure the quality of his training, but his inner desire to improve was still strong and could not be satisfied. Therefore, during his free time, he would think about how to improve himself.
become stronger.
This is why Aldrich deliberately called the four of them today to instill new tactical concepts.
To improve a player's ability, it is by no means purely dependent on training. When an alien is recuperating, he reads the defensive characteristics of the world's top defenders and studies coping methods. Ronaldinho will also study the overall defensive characteristics of his opponents. Henry, Larsson, etc.
Etc., they are all doing similar work outside of training, and these thoughts will help them become stronger on the court.
The new tactic Aldrich is going to create today is to modify it based on the large framework of the main attack group so that Kaká and Cristiano Ronaldo can be integrated into it. This tactic cannot be copied. Because Kaká and Nedvěd have different characteristics, c
The characteristics and functions of Ronaldinho and Ronaldinho on the court are completely different. Aldrich's changes are on the one hand to allow them to integrate, and on the other hand to activate them.
After listening to Aldrich's words, Ronaldo lowered his head and thought for a long time.
Simply watching Millwall's game, he would feel that sometimes offensive players are making useless passes, but after three or four passes, offensive opportunities come out. This makes people feel amazing, obviously everything was calm before the three passes. Three passes
Murderous intent appeared after the ball, and now he understands that this is what Aldridge said about thinking, and that the offensive threat shifts faster than the opponent's defensive focus shifts.
Aldrich called the defensive team of the substitute lineup for a half-court offensive and defensive confrontation. The defensive team had 7 players. The offensive team added Alonso to these four players, 5vs7, and then began to direct the match.
Perhaps it will take at least 2 to 3 years until Kaka and Ronaldo truly mature. Aldridge understands that he is now laying the foundation for the next generation of Millwall's attacking group.
...
Two days later, Millwall left for Türkiye.
Galatasaray is waiting for Millwall at a home court known as hell. Their situation is very bad. If they want to advance to the top eight, in addition to defeating Millwall at home, they also need to count on Boavista to snipe Bayern Munich.
In the Turkish media analysis, it was pointed out that Galatasaray has a chance to win at home: Millwall did not bring any main players!
Is it underestimating the enemy? Or is it contempt for Galatasaray?
No one questions Millwall. They have won five games and qualified. The end-of-season sprint has begun. Why should they bring all the main players in a game that is not about life and death? If you want to blame it, blame the current competition system of the Champions League. If it is a knockout round
, Millwall will definitely not be so confident.
"Galatasaray is known as the home ground of hell. Damn hell. Even if this is really hell, we are the kings of hell! You also saw what the newspapers are saying. Millwall gave up the last round. Millwall gave up.
Trying to surrender Bayern Munich out of the top eight, Mi
Millwall is aiming for the quarter-finals. Bullshit. Everything written in the newspaper is bullshit! Galatasaray thinks we are here to give away points? Outsiders don’t understand Millwall. We have never given up on anything.
game, yes, we did not bring a superstar, no Nedved
, no Henry, no Larson... Do you think so too? I hope no one will think so. If so, it means you are poor people. You can only live under the great glory of your predecessors.
Tell yourselves, today, you are the protagonist, today,
This is your moment. This is the stage for the top 16 of the Champions League. You have the qualifications and strength to gain a foothold here. Show your talents here and tell your opponents that we are not here to give away points. On the contrary, we are here to gain points.
Yes, we are here to make hell fall!"
Before the game, Aldridge paced back and forth in front of each player and gave an impassioned speech to mobilize the team's morale. This morale mobilization has no obvious effect on the main players, but it has a very obvious stimulating effect on the young players.
Metzelder, Alonso, Pedretti and others had bright eyes, not to mention Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka with their heads held high and their chests high, as if they were preparing to go on the field to fight with others.
Cristiano Ronaldo, wearing the captain's armband, leads the team. It really gives people the illusion that Millwall has given up on the game and is simply training the newcomers. Look, the young man walking in the front looks like he has no hair at all!
Aldridge walked into the arena to a greeting of boos and coin throws.
Standing on the sidelines with a straight face, he was not afraid of the atmosphere of the stadium. Those words before the game were very important, otherwise, the players might be affected by the atmosphere of the stadium.
The reason why I attach great importance to this game is because there is no better environment for training than today's game.
Galatasaray is at home and wants to focus on the attack, and is not particularly strong. It is a good opponent for training newcomers.
After the opening, Millwall started a crazy press in the midfield, focusing on solid defense in the backcourt and not pressing forward.
On the other hand, Galatasaray was eager to score. The offense was very direct. However, after wave after wave of forward attacks failed, the defense began to be in trouble.
"Metzelder and Barzagli's defense on the back line today was very solid, especially Metzelder. He gave people the impression of being calm. People are paying attention to how many newcomers with excellent offensive talents will appear in Millwall.
, but the growth of Metzelder and Barzagli provides a good guarantee for Millwall's future defense."
In the 21st minute, Metzelder headed the ball to clear the ball. Neal controlled the landing point and passed the ball to Alonso. The latter took the ball and turned around to observe, and passed a diagonal pass to Ronaldo on the wing.
Millwall started a fast break from the midfield. Ronaldo dribbled the ball forward and did a one-two with Kaká halfway. When he was about to reach the penalty area line, he noticed that Galatasaray had two
Players came to block him, Kaka attracted one, and Klose attracted two more players. Ronaldo no longer hesitated and directly passed the ball with a long diagonal kick. The ball landed at the back point on the other side of the penalty area.
!
Villa, who was unmarked, rushed in, stopped the ball, and volleyed on the spot!
The ball flew diagonally into the far corner of the goal like a cannonball!
"Millwall is ahead! Villa helped the team open the scoring. The outside world underestimated Millwall today, and Galatasaray must have underestimated them. Look at their performance on the field. Their defense is solid and their offensive ideas are clear.
, the success rate of passing and receiving is higher than that of the home team. They are just Millwall's substitute lineup. You can imagine how strong Millwall's overall strength is!"
Yes, to the outside world, they always think that Millwall's substitute lineup is average and can do well against mid-to-lower teams, but if it really plays in a high-level game, it is very likely to be destroyed.
But many people are wrong. Apart from the fact that the players are not well-known, Millwall's substitute lineup has actually reached the top of the second-rate. If Ronaldo and Kaká can further improve, this lineup alone will be
A level that can reach the bottom of the first class!
Galatasaray received a blow and immediately restrained their attack. Millwall took advantage of the situation. At Aldridge's request, the team turned away from home and played with great momentum!
In the 39th minute of the first half, Alonso pressed forward and handed the ball to Klose in front of the penalty area. Klose, who was leaning on the opponent's defender with his back, gently pushed the ball. Kaka ran past him.
Taking the ball away, he forced his way through the narrow space between the two central defenders and rushed over. One rush, one trip, one step adjustment, and one volley!
Goal!
Kaka, who celebrated his goal with his hands in the sky, turned around and showed a handsome smile after praying, and gathered with his teammates to celebrate wildly.
Aldridge celebrated with a leaning uppercut. The goal just now was great, it was what he wanted to see.
When Klose and Villa are statically marked on the front line, the two have to play ball for their teammates, but it is not enough for them to do it alone. Their teammates must consciously become killers. Kaka can understand his tactical requirements.
, and put it into action during the game, which made Aldrich very satisfied and excited.
Moreover, he hoped that Kaka could exert the same effect as before, without any sloppiness, unexpectedly and neatly, and completing a fatal blow before the opponent could even react!
In the second half, Galatasaray didn't care too much and could only fight back with all their strength. They got a goal back in the 59th minute, and then heard a very bad news. Bayern Munich led Boavista by two goals at home, even though
Even if they win, they won't be able to advance to the top 8.
Millwall didn't care so much. Even if they got a goal back, they were still mentally undisturbed.
In the 68th minute, Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaká rushed in from the front of the penalty area in the backcourt. One of them was on the wing and the other on the left side of the center. They kept rushing forward and completed one after another. The two were like
Two tornadoes blew up, breaking through Galatasaray's defense line layer by layer.
Aldrich was almost stunned on the sidelines.
The speed advantage and dribbling ability of these two people are fully utilized. In the process of constantly hitting the wall, cooperating and rushing forward, people's blood is boiling. It seems that they want them to keep rushing like this and keep rushing forward!
In front of the penalty area, Kaka suddenly threw the ball straight into the penalty area, catching Galatasaray off guard. They probably thought that Kaka would give the ball to Ronaldo, but Kaka completed the most critical goal in the most dangerous area.
The attack was diverted, and this shift was fatal.
Klose put the perfect end to this attack, and his push shot sent the ball into the goal.
Ronaldo stood on the sidelines with his arms open, laughing and nodding to Kaka. The two of them ran for more than 60 meters. With their cooperation along the way, they passed a total of 5 Galatasaray players, two of whom broke through.
Once, the rest was a 2-over-1, and in the last step, Kaka passed through the back and penetrated the defense of an opponent's player.
After completing such an exquisite and exciting cooperation, it seemed that the goal was more like the icing on the cake. They hugged each other and cheered for this offensive cooperation!
