989 Pandora's Box

Thanks to "Thieves", "Qingqing Xiaolang" and "Materials Science Engineering" for the rewards!

-----------------------------------------------

Millwall's offensive tactics were practiced after the New Year, that is, five months ago, and are not the focus of training. They will only deliberately emphasize one or two training sessions each week.

Anyone who has not fully visited a large-scale training cycle at Millwall cannot understand how Aldridge inspires talented players and strengthens the team's defense.

He will let the defensive players set up all kinds of unimaginable solid defensive systems. The number of defenders can be greater than the number of attackers. The defensive players can set up buses. The defensive players can even become free agents when they are physically dominant, just to target them.

A key offensive player.

His training is disordered. This disorder refers to routines, whether offensive or defensive. He will not draw a line for players to copy and practice. Such rigid training is not only useless, but also outdated.

So even if his disciples, especially talented offensive players, will feel that training under Aldridge is a test from hell, they will never feel bored. There will always be new problems waiting to be tested and tempered.

, inspire them!

In the same way, the opposite can be done to hone defensive players.

Using "passive offside", Millwall has already had this offensive ability. Unlike after the emergence of this rule, many controversial penalties occurred accidentally and were not deliberately done by the offensive team. Millwall can turn it into a means of its own offense.

.

It's just that in the Premier League and in games before the Champions League, they rarely use it on such occasions. To put it bluntly, no team can completely restrict them from scoring goals!

It was only when he was forced to lose his patience by his opponent today that Ronaldinho suddenly thought of trying his luck.

Because Ronaldinho discovered a key point.

This is a factor that Aldridge may have noticed but not taken advantage of yet, while Mourinho did not take it into consideration when making arrangements before the game.

That is Porto's back line, which most of the time moves and adjusts based on defensive pressure, and the magnitude of this pressure is not large.

Strictly speaking, Mourinho is not the representative coach of "pacing the bus". He is a pragmatist and a utilitarian, but this does not mean arranging the bus!

Now Porto is utilitarian, practical, and focused on defense, but it has not yet reached the stage where it can really operate a bus.

His defensive philosophy is actually very similar to Millwall's.

With the Italian chain defense as the core, the defense zone is not fixed within the 35 yards in front of the goal.

And to set up the bus, his offensive players must be further reduced!

The reason is very simple, not every attack can be definitely successful!

Not every time you attack, your offensive players can return to defense faster than your opponent can counterattack!

Suppose you kill 4 players in an attack, but the opponent counterattacks and there are only 6 players in the backcourt, how do you set up the bus?

In Porto today, Deco, Delle, Maniche, and Alenichev must step forward in the counterattack. They will not rely on just one or two players to try to knock off Millwall.

Door.

Therefore, Mourinho's team is not a bus. In Chelsea, Inter Milan, and Real Madrid, there may be a few games where they use extreme defense, which looks like a bus. However, the coach cannot be judged by a few games.

A fixed style is taken out of context and is too one-sided.

Or to put it in comparison, when Di Matteo coached Chelsea and led Chelsea to win the Champions League, it was a complete showdown, because there was only one forward in front, and the backcourt defense almost retreated into the penalty area. When there was an opportunity to attack, almost

No Chelsea players were seen rushing upfield.

, but when Mourinho coached Chelsea or Inter Milan, when attacking, he could see at least 3 or 4 players in a 4231 or 433 formation. The players in front would definitely rush forward, let alone making Maicon a world-class player at that time.

The full-backs, the real bus, the full-backs do not assist.

What's ironic is that the word "busting" became a buzzword in football circles because it came from Mourinho himself.

What's even more ironic is that in the following ten years, whenever Mourinho's team was extremely miserably suppressed by the opponent's passing control, fans would tease him by setting up a bus.

Just like Porto today.

It's not that they want to set up a bus, it's Mourinho who instilled the concept of team defense in the team.

They can't control the midfield. Are the midfielders being played like monkeys, wasting energy and rushing back and forth?

It's not that they don't want to grab the ball, the back line is afraid of attacking and exposing the space behind them. If the midfielder can't grab the ball, he can only retreat!

Everything is forced!

If we have to say what caused this phenomenon, the first is Mourinho's own football philosophy. His style does not pursue passing and control, so no matter which giant club he goes to coach, the team he builds will focus on the midfield.

In the most important area, in terms of player combinations, you will see a clear matching of styles, but you will not find any combination that completely uses passing and control to drive the entire team to press. What he wants is efficiency, not spectacle.

The second is the continental European style

In the process of sublimation and progress of football concepts, the importance of passing and controlling has suddenly emerged, and a school of its own is heading towards its peak. When the power of this successful football style explodes, the scene suppression is extremely effective. Mourinho is not a god. He created

The team is not an invincible absolute king. After the phenomenon of being suppressed occurs, the suppressing side is unlucky and cannot score, and the suppressed side cannot succeed in sneak attacks. From the scene, it seems that one side is naturally setting up the bus.

Porto is not setting up a bus now, so they will not statically have at least 7 or more people huddled in the 35-yard dangerous zone in front of the goal to defend, and rely on one or two people to step forward for a sneak attack.

Their defense adjusts their movements based on the strength of the threat. If an opponent presses forward, they will retreat. If the opponent retreats, they will push outward to ensure that the opponent's pass and impact space in front of the penalty area is tightly blocked.

This characteristic is a factor that Ronaldinho believes can definitely be exploited.

Henry retreated, slightly drawing the opponent's defense out, creating enough deep space behind them.

Then Henry charged forward. The opponent's back line also retreated. But Henry was faster, but Henry was offside. The opponent's back line would immediately stop and in order to create an offside trap to ensure that there was no problem, move forward again. This is it.

The poor rhythm on the first pitch is the best environment for Millwall to take advantage of "passive offside"!

Millwall used "passive offside" to rewrite the score on the field, which was like opening a Pandora's box, bringing disaster to Porto.

Their backline became confused, born of paranoia.

God knows if Henry will get the same goal the next time he goes offside!

Henry's running is even more threatening. This threat is very intuitive. In order to ensure that the opponent will not penetrate the defense in the same way again, Porto's back line began to retreat deeper!

Don't dare to commit offside!

Invisibly, Millwall's offensive space in front of the penalty area has been expanded!

When Mourinho was thinking about how to equalize the score, the bad news came!

In the 43rd minute, Henry rushed to the offside position again. He didn't even look back and seemed not to care where his teammates were behind him. Where was the ball and how Millwall's offense was developing.

Carvalho and Costa retreated to block Henry's horizontal translation and hit the space in front of the goal. Valente and Ferreira also retreated. At the same time, Nedvěd ran to the right on the front waistline and took away the ball.

Costinha.

Alonso passed the ball diagonally to the right in front of Deco, Schneider came up and passed it diagonally back to the center.

If it was two seconds ago, there should be Nedved here, but now, both Nedved and Costinha ran away.

Mendez is here to guard the place.

Ronaldinho threw away Alenichev from the left and cut inside. Ferreira looked anxious. Ronaldinho was getting further and further away from him. He could only move into the penalty area, but it seemed that he was unable to do anything.

Block Ronaldinho unless he switches to left back.

Ronaldinho touched the ball in front of Mendes, paused, changed direction and accelerated. Mendes was directly passed by. Mendes' hand holding Ronaldinho's arm was thrown away by Ronaldinho without hesitation. As for Mendes, he fell to the ground.

The ground signaled that Ronaldinho hit him in the face, but the referee had no reaction.

The sharp-eyed referee happened to be very close to the scene of the incident. If a penalty was to be awarded, it should be given to Mendes.

Since Mendes already had a yellow card, he must be more cautious about the second yellow card.

Now Millwall continues to attack without being affected. Mendes fell to the ground. The referee treated it as a two-way offset and warned Mendes again after the attack was over.

Costinha gave up Nedvěd and came to defend Ronaldinho, but his body center of gravity had slowed down. Ronaldinho changed direction and dribbled him away. Costinha made a tackle from behind and Ronaldinho was tripped.

There was a moment, but Ronaldinho staggered for three steps before regaining his balance and continued to dribble the ball forward!

He was already rushing at full speed, but was pulled by Mendes and tackled from behind by Costinha, which caused Ronaldinho's speed to slow down again, but he could dribble the ball more smoothly.

At this time, Nedved continued to rush towards the penalty area, and he rushed towards the middle!

Henry moved left to attack the left rib.

Larsson cuts in from the other side and hits the right rib!

Three fronts attack together!

Porto's back line of four is heartbroken. They are surrounded by Millwall's offensive players, all of whom are famous. Those are three Mr. Ballon d'Or!

It was as if their brains suddenly shut down and no one dared to rush out and stop Ronaldinho!

Ronaldinho slowly dribbled the ball into the penalty area, but there was still no one around him to interfere.

He's on his feet!

The moment he takes off, you can see how well his teammates cooperate with him!

Henry took a step back and stood in front of Costa.

Nedved retreated and blocked Carvalho.

Larson moved out of the way to block Valente!

This not only prevents the opponent's defender from interfering with Ronaldinho, but also expands Ronaldinho's shooting angles!

Ronaldinho made a heavy shot, and the ball flew between Carvalho and Valente. The trajectory of the ball started from bottom to top and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

There was a distance of about 15 yards, no one interfered, Ronaldinho's shot was full of force, and the angle selection was also safe. The ball hit the Porto goal without any suspense!

"Ronaldinho! Ronaldinho! The unparalleled Brazilian! He dribbled the ball through the opponent's back line. Mendes and Costinha tried their best to stop him, but they failed. !Finally, he sent the ball into Porto's goal with an amazingly powerful shot! Millwall led Porto 2:0! 2:0! Porto had almost no chance! Is it possible to reverse Millwall? It's possible ? Porto, which has been passive since the beginning, gives no hope! They are so pitiful. Last year and this year, they encountered the powerful Millwall in the Intercontinental Cup finals for two consecutive years. Porto was stronger than last year, but ,Millwall is a hundred times stronger than last year!"

This goal was like a heavy punch to Mourinho's heart. He looked at Ronaldinho being praised by the stars on the other side of the stadium, his lips moved slightly and he didn't know what to say, and then he punched the ceiling of the coaching bench.

Champions League final!

European Champions Cup!
