Chapter 1073: Draw is enough

At the Del Alp stadium there was a picture that made the fans of both sides extremely uncomfortable.
When Millwall controlled the ball in the midfield, Juventus used the core concept of chain defense, not to grab, to maintain the tightness of the back defense system. They did not grab and did not expose the empty situation. Millwall The Trident will also be marked to death, Millwall simply does not pass the ball forward.
Juventus is actually waiting to fight Millwall's counterattack, and Millwall hopes that the other party will rob and expose the empty.
In an environment that does not consider other factors, Millwall dared to invest in the offense, using a wave of attack to destroy the opponent's defense line.
However, this offensive is based on high physical energy consumption. In order to stay at Chelsea, and to ensure that the ball will not be lost, to improve the quality of defense, so Aldridge discharged a main midfield and backcourt defense and added a defensive type The starting lineup for the midfielder.
Millwall controlled the ball in the midfield and Juventus fans were not satisfied.
The boos seemed to be saying: Why don't you attack?
Nearly 10,000 Millwall fans were also dissatisfied and protested that Juventus were still shrinking their heads at home, daring not to come out and fight!
Capello is helpless, but on the premise of no change on the field, Aldridge is very calm.
He wanted to see if Capello dare to gamble!
He is very confident of returning to the Lion King Stadium for the second round, and the fast pace of the Premier League is definitely not Juventus can resist.
After all, Capello still has no guts to oppress the team!
At the end of the game, Juventus fans stopped booing.
0:0.
The result is not bad.
This "not bad" is relative to Millwall's away record in the Champions League in the past few years. It is not particularly pessimistic to let Millwall not score at home, especially optimistically. The next round Moving to the Lion King Stadium, as long as Juventus scored a goal, then Millwall to advance to the final, it must score two!
Most Juventus fans think so.
The idea of ​​a fan of crazy lions is much simpler: return to the home to clean up you!
When attending the UEFA official press conference after the game, the Italian journalist made trouble for Aldridge and asked: "As the defending champion of the Champions League, Millwall abandoned his style today. There were only 6 shots in the game. This is You have the lowest number of shots in all competitions throughout the season. Do you admit that Millwall has started to turn to utilitarianism?"
Aldridge thought for a long time, coughed twice, and asked, "How many shots did Juventus have in the game?"
There was a burst of laughter from the audience.
In addition to Italian journalists, media reporters from other countries couldn't help laughing.
The Italian reporter did not answer. Someone answered for them. Richard from Fleet Street shouted: "Sir Hall, it was a 3-foot shot and no one hit the goal."
Aldridge’s pretense came to a sigh:
As the defending champion of the Champions League, Millwall played at Juventus. Although he didn’t score a goal, we handed over twice as many shots as the home team. I think this can be explained from a certain level. Millwall is more aggressive than Juventus. It is true. What did you ask me just now? Oh, utilitarianism, I have never said that Millwall is not a ball of utilitarianism. Team, I have always emphasized that we are a down-to-earth team, so others can say that we are a utilitarian team, but I don’t know if you describe Juventus, will you put a prefix in front of utilitarianism? Explanation? For example, extreme utilitarianism?"
The Italian journalists were helpless.
The reporters on Fleet Street laughed and said nothing.
Utilitarianism is a derogatory term in football.
However, no one dared to make a fuss in this respect when Aldridge won the championship.
Because Millwall would hit each other’s face at any time, in case the column article today criticized Millwall for utilitarianism, and in the next game, Millwall bombarded his opponents with passion and offensive football, which left the writers self-confident, Readers are naturally disgusted, although, often, the ball critics only summarize and analyze a certain game.
This is different from Mourinho's Chelsea. One is to insist on a style, and Audridge belongs to the mouth of the Thames chief columnist.
He did not have the determination to defend or implement a football style until he died. He was unpredictable.
You can say that Aldridge doesn’t have a style, but his team seems to become a chameleon when everyone defines it by style. A variety of styles can be well interpreted from another perspective. This is where Millwall is strong, and it is also the result of the work of Aldrich training the team to give the team a richer practical ability.
...
In the middle of the week, Champions League Millwall made up the majority of the main players, but did not consume too much on the court, because these defensive players have not withstood the excessive offensive test of Juventus, Ronaldinho and others on the bench were sitting and watching After the race, there was no warm-up. The only cost to them was the trip to and from the boat.
Mourinho was unhappy again.
In the last round of the league, the outside world thought that Millwall was "losing"!
Millwall played the FA Cup in the middle of the week, the league started first!
So, this week, Millwall's visit to Chelsea was scheduled for the final round of the game, which is the last game.
This allowed Millwall to return from the Champions League and have more rest time.
Most people think so. Millwall "lost" in the previous round and got some "compensation" in this round.
But Mourinho and Aldrich, as well as the circles such as Ferguson, Wenger, Benitez, everyone knows that Millwall takes the advantage!
The energetic main lineup last week easily defeated Manchester United, who stepped on the tipping point of the three-day recovery period.
Chelsea faced Arsenal, who had rested for 5 days, and was eventually tied by Arsenal.
Millwall returned from the Champions League this week and got almost four and a half days of rest. How could he not take advantage?
The sooner this game starts, the better it will be for Chelsea, but the FA's schedule is so arranged. Chelsea can't complain!
The season has come to an end. Looking back on this season, Mourinho has complained too much. The schedule, the referee, and even his dog have to be taken away to complain, and then complain, he will soon become a complaint.
Moreover, if you find other reasons to complain at this time, it appears to be weak, which is very unfavorable to Chelsea's military heart.
Chelsea is sympathetic to the outside world.
Their points during the same period have surpassed 70% of the final championship points since the establishment of the Premier League in 1992. This is a very good Chelsea. The league performance is stable, powerful, and unbeatable. However, they still look away from the championship throne. Out of reach, if the direct confrontation with Millwall is ruled out, that is, the change of points at the Lion King Stadium in the first half of the league, Chelsea actually only lags behind Millwall by 2 points. Although Millwall is powerless this season Refreshing the record of 104 points in the league points they created before, but not far from that record. Now they have 93 points. If they can win the last three league games, their points will reach 102 points, which is the highest point in the Premier League. The score record is only 2 points, which is the gap between a draw and a victory, or if the only defeat becomes a victory, they may be able to refresh the record they created.
Not that Chelsea are not good enough, but they are not better than Millwall.
Of course, there is still suspense.
Maybe Millwall will crash and give away the championship trophy.
Who knows about things on the football field?
Mourinho didn’t complain, but at the pre-match press conference, in addition to emphasizing that Chelsea had a chance to win the championship, first he had to defeat Millwall and thwart Millwall’s morale. Then, he gave up his life to warn the referee The team also deliberately talked about the fiasco in the first half of the league.
During his pre-match press conference, Aldridge was asked by reporters about Mourinho’s remarks. He thought it was ridiculous and asked:
This season Millwall has played against Chelsea three times. We won three times. Then, someone It’s the referee’s question, okay, why didn’t the UEFA and UEFA simply award the championship trophy to us? What other games do they play? Haha, Chelsea are determined to take the championship trophy from Millwall. Very good, I appreciate the aggressive opponents, so that Millwall’s victory will be commendable, and the player’s sense of accomplishment will be stronger. Visiting the game at Stamford Bridge, I think it may be more difficult than we thought. Because Chelsea are aspiring, they will give everything to win and hope to win the championship. After all, they have invested huge amounts of money in the past two years. They need a huge championship trophy to fill the empty honor room. They also need to let investors and their bosses see the results. However, Millwall now seems to have a clear advantage, as long as we don’t lose, a draw can be accepted. If the final is a draw, the gap between us and Chelsea is still 5 points, then, in the last two leagues, we only need to take By 1 point, we can ensure a successful defending. After all, Chelsea have given us too many goal difference behind."
Aldridge threw his pre-match view: 1 point is enough!
As long as Chelsea is tied, the Millwall championship trophy is in hand.
His remarks became true and true under the rendering of Fleet Street.
Fleet Street also deliberately analyzed the schedule, because Millwall also had to take into account the second round of the Champions League semi-finals. The 0:0 in the first round looked very dangerous to Millwall. In the final two rounds of the league, Millwall The opponents are Newcastle United and West Brom, let alone take 1 point, 2 points to ensure that there is absolutely no problem.
