Chapter 209: Sword Finger Rotterdam


The news of Stam's transfer is booming in England. In three years, he has grown into the leading top defender in England and the undisputed star among the defensive players. His transfer will naturally become the most interesting topic.
Millwall officially announced that Stam will transfer after the end of the season, and no other information will be disclosed.
The news continues to heat up because Stam no longer appears on Millwall's training ground. Until a week later, Stam appeared in Manchester for a medical examination to let everyone outside understand: Stam moved to Manchester United!
Aldridge could have kept silent about Stam’s things, but he chose to cut the mess, if he kept covering it, then Stum’s incident would have been followed by the British paparazzi, and public opinion would also surround Milwaukee. Well, if it continues to develop, it will have a bad impact on the team.
Rather than cover it up, it is better to directly ignite the fuse, and after the incident erupts, the team will return to calm once the news heat passes, and at this time, Aldridge believes that he did nothing wrong in the European Winners Cup Before the start of the second round, Stam's transfer has already begun to cool down.
Paris Saint-Germain came to London's Wembley Stadium, and the ambition was to fight a turnaround. Aldridge led Millwall to wait for work and let the other foot also reach the final.
Wembley Stadium was full of seats. Before the European War, the highest attendance rate was only 70%, because the visiting visitors were all non-influential characters, but today Millwall is going to play against the defending champion Paris Saint-Germain. Not only did the fans of the mad lion flock, many neutral fans also came here to support.
Before the start of the game, Aldridge walked into the stadium and immediately detonated the atmosphere of the stadium. The crazy lion fans in the stands sang songs supporting Aldridge and cheered him with applause and cheers.
Aldridge was wearing a black trench coat, his hands were inserted in the jacket pockets, and his face was very calm, even looking slightly cold.
In the past week, the atmosphere of the club has not been very good because of the transfer of Instam, because it has been harassed by the media, but the players in the team have unified their ideas and quickly stabilized the military. In the league a few days ago In the middle, a big victory boosted morale.
Boom!
Aldridge's shoulder was suddenly hit, he stopped and turned his head to look around. A cartoon-looking blue lion came into view, which was Millwall's mascot: Leo.
Before the start of the game, it was normal for a staff member to dress up as a mascot on the sidelines, take photos with fans, tease the little fans in the stands, and please the audience.
Aldridge watched the mascot Leo reach out to himself. Aldridge showed a smile and just extended his right hand, but the other party pulled his hand back again, making Aldridge embarrassed.
The fans in the stands were amused by the scene.
Aldridge was also not annoyed and was about to turn away, but Leo, the mascot, hugged him again and gestured to the stands with his thumbs.
Fans in the nearby stands took a camera and immediately took this picture.
Aldridge kept on hooking with Leo for ten seconds and then let go of the opponent. Then he continued to walk towards the home team's coach seat. Unexpectedly, the restless Blue Lion caught up with him again, and turned harder. He held his hands and made a dancing gesture.
The fans all laughed.
Aldridge watched his opponent dance, his facial muscles twitching.
Are you undercover?
Did you mess here?
He seemed to be looking to the sidelines for help, intending to let the stadium manager remind the lion.
I am the manager of Millwall, not funny!
"Hey, just give me enough!"
Aldridge whispered.
After Leo's movement stopped, a dull voice came from the lion's head.
"Boss, you are so boring!"
Aldridge vaguely distinguished the master of the voice.
"Ronaldo?"
"Uh huh, you don't dance, I jump myself."
Aldridge laughed dumbly.
Unexpectedly today, this unlucky lion was played by Ronaldinho.
Next, Leo jumped a beautiful samba on the sidelines, leaving the audience in the stands dumbfounded.
That lion is so cute!
More and more fans are going to take photos with Leo, Aldridge hummed and shook his head slightly towards the coach seat.
"What are you playing with him?"
Benitez asked Aldridge as he came over and frowned.
Aldridge smiled and said nothing, not because he wanted to play, but was pulled by Ronaldinho.
At this time, he saw the visiting team coach Fernandez appeared on the sidelines, so he walked over to greet him with a few words of greeting.
In this game, the two sides tried their best to make no difference with the lineup when they met in the first round. Aldridge noticed the look of the players of Paris Saint-Germain, and they were very firm. They did come to London with a conviction.
Aldridge stood by the sidelines, quietly waiting for the game to start.
Although this is London, the team is not too familiar with this field. In terms of the familiar advantages of the field conditions, the two teams are not much different, and, in a sense, the European The battle is very exciting to the visiting team. This is England's most glorious playing field!
Millwall's only absolute advantage is the cheering of fans in the stands.
Before the game started, there was a name resounding in the sky, and the fans of the mad lions screamed Millwall's name in a rhythmic rhythm, like a slogan, but there was never a stop.
Fernandes took the sidelines with an unparalleled aura to cheer for the team, and formed a tit-for-tat against Aldridge's silent tall shore.
After the opening, Paris Saint-Germain immediately launched a fierce offensive. The players ran aggressively, especially strengthening the long shot outside the penalty area, trying to knock the mountain tiger and disrupt Millwall's rhythm.
In the third minute of the game, Lai suddenly forty yards outside kicked the door, the ball slid out of the door, shocking Bout's cold sweat.
Two minutes later, Leonardo made a long shot from the right side outside the penalty area. The ball was blocked by Bout. Loco, who was catching the second attack, was blocked by Elgra with his thigh.
Another minute later, Le Roy had just passed the midline diagonal long pass penalty area, Southgate came to the top, Loco shot into the chest and stopped the shot, but the shot was not put into force. The ball was easily taken into the arms by Bout.
In the first ten minutes, Millwall was beaten by Paris Saint-Germain.
Aldridge was still expressionless on the sidelines, and Jenson even came up and suggested to him: "Let Nedved retreat and replace Pirlo!"
Aldrich shook his head and refused.
The reason for the suppression was in the midfield. After Pirlo replaced Barak, the defensive strength had a clear drop in this strong dialogue. The last time Pirlo played in more than sixty minutes, then the Paris Saint-Germain veteran Most of them have decreased physical fitness, but this game has just started, they are energetic and enter the game very quickly.
Aldrich kept repeating in his heart: Andrea, hold, Andrea, hold...
If it is simply a defensive position, Pirlo is no problem, but the defensive technical link needs to be strengthened, so that he can block the track of the ball in sports. The problem is not big, and can face the delicate players such as Lai The possibility of being deceived is very high, and Paris Saint-Germain deliberately withdraws the organization area. Makelele did not dare to press too much to make himself appear too empty behind him.
Pirlo also consciously retreated, allowing his defensive position to be connected with the back line, even if he was passed, it can also compress the opponent's forward space.
Paris Saint-Germain must score goals, so their offensive is getting more and more fierce. This is risky. Millwall’s tactics today are also very simple. It is by no means dead. As long as there is a chance, then kill the game!
Pirlo was passed by Rai again, but he consciously blocked his right and induced Rai to break through from his left. Rai had just crossed Pirlo and Makelele appeared in front of the other side, doing Before the next move, Makelele stretched his foot to break the ball and handed it to Pirlo.
Seeing this defense, Aldridge nodded and expressed satisfaction.
For Pirlo's defensive training, Aldridge almost let the coaching staff guide one-on-one. He can lack defensive skills, but the defensive awareness and defensive position must be excellent to compensate for the technical links.
This was the case just now. His position was reasonable, so that Lai could only make a breakthrough on the right from the right. Pirlo was passed, but formed a joint defense with Makelele. After Lai passed Pirlo, instead Make Makelele take the lead in defense, because Makelele is waiting for the opponent to come from here.
Pirlo took the ball and looked in front of him, then sent the ball to the frontcourt with a straight pass. Nedved took the ball laterally after catching the ball, attracting Galan's attention, and then he passed the ball to Trezeguet withdrawing, Trezege with his back facing the ball, passed the ball back to Larson from the left to the middle. The latter rubbed the ball like a pass, and the ball passed The line of defense went to the back of the penalty area.
This series of passes did not drag the water at all. The ball passed from the backcourt to the frontcourt, from the center to the left, and then passed diagonally from the left to the top of the penalty area. The transfer rate challenged the nerve reflex capabilities of Paris Saint-Germain players.
The goalkeeper Rama also moves on the goal line with the direction of the ball. At this time, he moves from the right to the left, following the ball's trajectory, and seeing a blue figure.
Ukrainian nuclear warhead!
"Shevchenko leaped to the top! Rama didn't touch the ball! The goal was scored! Millwall led one to zero! The total score was three to one!"
The stands at Wembley Stadium resembled mountains and tsunami. The fans stood up with both hands raised, cheering and applause enduringly.
Aldridge punched heavily, his expression still cold.
Shevchenko's goal worsened Paris Saint-Germain.
Fernandes hasn't surrendered yet, he cheered on the players on the sidelines.
But Paris Saint-Germain kicked more and more discouraged, but Millwall played more and more steady. Fifteen minutes later, Pirlo inserted a long-range shot and hit the defender with a long shot and deflected into the goal.
Rama watched that the ball was flying to the right. He was 100% sure that the save was successful, but he was blocked by the defender. However, the ball was reflected on the left side of the goal halfway. Dew looked desperately to the left, and no miracle happened, and the ball flew into the goal.
Millwall led Paris Saint-Germain with two goals in the first half, with a total score of four to one.
During the intermission, Aldridge still sounded the alarm for the players in the locker room and could not relax in the second half.
Paris Saint-Germain played another very threatening offensive after the second half started, but they seemed to lack some luck today, and a half-single ball of Leonardo actually hit the goal post and bounced out.
In the 70th minute of the game, Aldridge used Barak to replace Nelson, allowing Barak and Makelele to play double backs. Nedved was free in the frontcourt.
Under the change of the defense, Millwall kept the score of 2-0 to the end.
At the moment when the game ended, the whole team of players ran to the coach's seat, whether it was the bench or the coaches of the coaching staff, everyone hugged together to celebrate the victory.
"Millwall reached the final in Europe for the first time. The final of the European Cup Winners' Cup in the Netherlands next month will be the top match between Millwall and La Liga giants Barcelona!"
