Chapter 601: Lucky hit

Players from both Valencia and Millwall entered the stadium, and each held their heads bravely, and they were determined to win this game.
Even if the outside world is not optimistic that Valencia can snipe Millwall in the quarter-finals, how can Valencia catch it?
The outside world is not optimistic, it is someone else's business, and it has nothing to do with them.
"We see that the players from both sides have entered the field in a row. Let's introduce the starting list of both sides.
Valencia released a 451 formation today.
Goalkeeper: Canizares.
Defenders: Angloma, Ayala, Pellegrino, Carboni.
Midfielder double back: Albelda, Baraja.
Avant-garde: Mendieta, Aimar, Kili Gonzalez
Forward: Karoo.
Millwall started 433.
Goalkeeper: Palyuka.
Guards: Schneider, Materazzi, Southgate, Zambrotta.
Midfielders: Gattuso, Pirlo, Nedved.
Forwards: Larson, Henry, Ronaldinho.
From the player line-up, it can be seen that Millwall is stronger, but the strength on the football field is only the basis. Whoever deer will depend on the 90-minute matchup between the two sides on the field. "
Compared with the configuration of one of the best midfielders in Europe last season, after Herard and Falinos left, Valencia bought Baraja and formed a double back with Albelda, which is also called Europe One of the toughest waist combinations.
In the winter transfer window, Valencia bought the talented young man Aimar. Vicente and Joaquin who had been loaned to them by Millwall did well, but they are not their own people. It is estimated that the Valencia club also has its own. The idea is that before the season, the major generals rushed to loan, and when the first stage of the Champions League group stage finished successfully, the income rose sharply, and their minds became lively. In the future acquisition, in case these two are too hot, they will not be able to afford the transfer fee.
Mestalla's hustle and bustle continued, and the cheering of fans from both sides was not reduced after the game started.
After a five-minute trial and adaptation rhythm, the two teams opened up and accelerated the pace of the game.
Generally speaking, a 180-minute turn-based game will converge slightly in the first round, but against a top strong team such as Millwall, Valencia really dare not be too conservative in rhythm, unable to win opponents at home and go away, There are so many evils!
And this is also related to their own technical and tactical play.
The ultimate defensive counterattack, Cooper put this set to the limit in Valencia.
The outside world can't blame Cooper's tactics for any problems, whether it is anti-football utilitarian or something.
Cooper's hand determined that he could only play against.
Two full-backs, Anglomar and Caboni, are now 36 years old!
No defense, how can the full-backs have the ability to go up and down, even if the middle and lower teams can drag down their side defenses back and forth, this is not enough, you must also have a double back to protect the back line, especially the full-backs and the middle The guard's ribs are free and improve the fault tolerance rate. In this way, the four guards plus double backs, no matter how the front design is based on this, so anti-reverse is the best choice.
Millwall quickly developed oppression in the frontcourt, and Aldridge was not surprised.
The opposing two full-backs couldn't go up, because they couldn't come back, so they defended the back line and turned around. Millwall's two wingers' defensive tasks were not so heavy, and they could focus more on offense.
Veterans have the advantage of veterans, as long as they don’t give enough space to opponents to be eaten by speed players, they have a wealth of experience in the pre-judgment, selection, interception timing, assist defense, etc. to provide the basis. Last season, the Champions League final Valencia After the game, the media unanimously believed that it was caused by Hellado replacing Kaboni who could not play.
Today, the biggest change in Millwall’s offense came from Ronaldinho. Aldrich deliberately gave him the task at the tactical meeting. Don’t rush to the sideline and take the inner line. Closer to the middle and strengthen the cooperation with Nedved.
Although Albelda and Baraja had good defensive abilities, they still seemed unable to parry Ronaldinho's initiative to come to the middle with Nedved.
After Ronaldinho opened the game, he first played a trick on the side to provoke his opponents. A bull tail flicked through Anglomar's defense, but the effect of the bottom cross was general.
His threat, Mo said Valencia, the entire UEFA know.
When Ronaldinho took the initiative to lean towards the middle road, he gave the left road to Zambrotta. Angloma did not dare to press up and forced the robbery to lose his position. Ronaldinho alone in the middle road made Albelda and Baraja feel pressure. , Especially when Ronaldinho is in possession of the ball, they dare not rush to grab, always pay attention to their distance from the defender line.
In the 11th minute, Ronaldinho controlled the ball in front of the penalty area and made a fake shake. Alberda looked like a ghost and feared that he would take a half step back, but Ronaldinho stood up straight, standing in all directions, all There are Valencia players defending, the front defense is still, and Mendieta comes back to assist.
Ronaldinho lightly seemed to lift the ball on the spot, passing Alberda's head, as if shocking his mind, his eyes widened and he immediately turned his head to look back.
Henry jumped up to grab a nod and consciously moved to the side.
The ball hadn't landed yet. In the air, Nedvide brought the ball in with his chest when he rushed forward, breaking through the entire defense of Valencia.
Because the Valencia defense was dragged behind, Nedvide seemed to be single-handed, but it was too close to the goal. Canizares decisively abandoned the goal after Henry headered the ball. When the ball came from At the moment when Nedved landed on the chest, Canizares had lowered the center of gravity and came to Nedved one meter away.
Nedved forcibly kicked his foot, vigorously volleyed.
boom!
There was a cry of exclamation in Mestalla's stands.
The ball hit Canizares' shoulder and flew off.
Fans of the Bat Army immediately doubled their applause, applauding Canizares’ fearlessness.
"Nedved's shot was blocked by Canizares' body, Millwall's attack was very effective, and Valencia's defense was ripped directly from the middle."
Valencia had just escaped, and Larsson's header from the back of the goal was confiscated by Canizales because he was too positive.
The 36-year-old Caboni clearly couldn't stop Larson's sudden and inward explosiveness.
Fans of Valencia in the stands have begun to worry.
The scene looks like Valencia, which has the advantage of being at home today, is more disadvantaged than last year's final!
After 2 minutes, Mendieta spurred a counterattack in the backcourt and opened a big foot to the frontcourt.
This long pass crossed Gattuso's zone and went directly to Valencia's arrow character, Norwegian high center Karu!
Karu turned his back to Millwall's penalty area and landed two meters in front of him. Materazzi was unable to get close at first, so he patiently and calmly waited for Karu to turn the ball. At that time, it was broken. The best time for his ball, absolutely won!
But after the ball fell, Materazzi looked at Caru's back and suddenly raised his head and yelled: I bought a watch last year!
I don't know if Karu was intentional or unintentional, obviously he has enough space and time to stop the high-altitude ball, and he also made a step forward to stop the ball.
By the way, the football bounced on the lawn at his feet. He seemed to be taken aback by the rebounding ball, and then turned around panicly to chase the ball.
After the ball bounced off the ground, it just passed the top of Materazzi's head and flew behind him. Materazzi unexpectedly found the ball flying over the head and turned around immediately, but saw someone flying at two meters in front of him. Go forward to chase the second drop of the ball.
Kylie Gonzalez!
From the long pass of Mendieta, Gonzalez ran inside from the sidelines.
Schneider was able to keep up with each other, but when Karu could take the ball, Materazzi defended the zone, and Gonzalez was suspected of offside before Karu received the ball. Schneider and Materazzi Keeping parallel, if Caru stopped the ball and turned to pass to Gonzalez, Gonzalez fell into an offside trap.
But it was wrong, Karu didn't stop the ball, didn't touch the ball, the ball flew across the midfield from the air, hit the ground and then bounced, and crossed the back line.
Materazzi can interfere with Gonzalez if he takes a step up, but he must use his hand!
Between lightning and flint, Materazzi gave up this idea, although Southgate has been running fast to fill the seat, but if he fouls, it is a red card if it is not good, here is Valencia’s home court, Can't afford this risk!
Gonzalez caught the ball in the penalty area and Palyuca also abandoned the goal. Gonzalez shot without a hesitation. Palyuca made a save but was unable to return to the sky.
The ball flew in from the far post of the goal and hit the side net directly to see how tricky the angle is.
"Valencia opened the first record! Gonzalez's beautiful long shot penetrated the door of Millwall! In the 16th minute of the game, Valencia scored a goal! Their counterattack was really powerful, and even the defending champion could not withstand it! "
The narrator is a bit unruly.
Valencia played a threatening counterattack in 16 minutes, this time the goal was scored, and it was absolutely crooked.
You have to say that Karu made a stop motion and the result was that it didn't touch the ball as a fake action, then he is simply a god, not only has a long eye behind his head, but also can accurately predict the trajectory of the object.
It's common for a striker to miss the ball and change his teammate's direction to cover, but he has never seen a striker use a high ball to make a second leap to cover his teammate. If Karu really thinks so, he won't panic and turn to chase.
Mestalla's stands boiled, and the fans waved their fists as they cheered.
Matrazzi raised his hand to Palyuca with a sullen face, indicating that it was his problem, and then extended his hand to Schneider to explain what.
It was also due to Mendieta's long pass with a strong kick. After the rebound, the speed was quite fast. If the intensity is smaller, Materazzi may not have to chase back, and he can make a header by taking two steps back.
Cooper's expression on the sidelines was still very dignified, his face stretched, but his eyes showed an unknown flame.
Valencia can only play anti-anti, Millwall's offensive is so strong, although the goal is now ahead, the situation is still not optimistic.
One, not enough!
In addition to avoiding being scored as a guest goal by opponents, Valencia's probability of promotion is still below 50% when going to the away court 1:0.
Aldridge was unimpressed by the team’s lost goal and stood on the sidelines, with no change in expression.
Judging from the first 15 minutes, Millwall's advantage is obvious. There is no need to panic when losing a ball. Today is to get an away goal.
In fact, Valencia played anti-counterfeit, if Millwall was also determined to fight anti-counterfeit, he could definitely limit the opponent’s goals, but Audridge felt capable of suppressing the offense. Even if away, Milwall would abandon the style. Contrary to their football philosophy.
In the face of a comparable team, it is no problem to play defense against the road, and in the face of opponents who can create excellent opportunities, Millwall should play more actively.
