Chapter 464: Come fight!


Before the arrival of October, Millwall had an 8-game winning streak and 9-game winning streak. The entire British media was calling for a team to stand up to stop Millwall.
The analysis of most football experts believes that October will be the most likely time for Millwall to encounter Waterloo. Millwall has encountered strong enemies in the Premier League and has to fight back-to-back with Serie A champion AC Milan in the European War.
However, Arsenal, Chelsea, Leeds United and AC Milan have fallen under the gun of Millwall's crazy fire. Before the 17th round of the Premier League, people should have had strong expectations for Manchester United.
It is reasonable to regard Manchester United as the most likely person to Millwall's winning streak.
But now, the mindset of outside visitors has changed from anticipation to numbness, and it has been completely conquered by Millwall.
Manchester United, Manchester United, huh, Manchester United sniping Millwall?
No, it's Manchester United's turn. Finally, Millwall, who is unstoppable with firepower, finally aimed his gun at Manchester United!
The outside world is cheering for Millwall, praising their merits with beautiful words.
What is Manchester United? !
Now, it is the moment for everyone to witness the record of the five major league games winning streak. It is perhaps a magical moment in which it is impossible for a team to surpass in ten, twenty or thirty years!
Want to achieve 20 consecutive victories or more in the five major leagues, in the context of the era of the major league clubs' rapid advancement, to achieve such an achievement is tantamount to the difficulty of reaching the sky, and Millwall, the current enemy, is day! It's on the road to the extreme!
As of the 16th round of the league, Manchester United ranked second in the league with 11 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, with 36 points. Millwall won 16 games with 48 points, which is 12 points away from the second place.
Perhaps it is such a huge gap that makes the Manchester United club and Ferguson himself become calm and weird when ushering in such a crucial battle.
There was no war of words and no change in attitude. It was like treating a sparse ordinary league. Ferguson was expressionless at the pre-match press conference. All he said in his mouth was diplomatic rhetoric.
At the same time, Aldridge also faced the battle with a calm attitude, which is understandable to the outside world. If Millwall is provocative and proud, he will inevitably lead to the possibility of underestimating the enemy. With weakness, it is possible to pour cold water on his team.
The team created by Aldridge is already strong enough to not have to look at others. At the same time, they do not need to play conspiracies and tricks. Calm off the court is the best gesture.
On the weekend, the Red Devils fans came from afar to gather the Lion's Cave Stadium. The crazy Lion fans ignored them, but raised their heads high and walked into the Lion's Cave Stadium orderly to watch the game.
On this day, the sky was gloomy and densely clouded, but there was never a drop of rain, which affected people's mood and felt a little depressed.
Aldrich did not walk towards Ferguson when he walked into the stadium. He walked to his position, with the same expression as Ferguson, and could not see any sorrow and joy.
"The 17th round of the Premier League focus war is coming, defending champion Millwall vs. Manchester United, this is the first battle, but the leader Millwall has left the second place of Manchester United by 12 points, and the league has not finished half of the game. , But this game has been regarded as the end of the league championship suspense. If Millwall wins at home, the gap of 15 points ahead of Manchester United will hardly give the opponent a chance to make a comeback, so, as a live commentary on Mill over the past few years The narrator of the Wall game, I, Martin Taylor, I hope that Manchester United can let the Premier League championship fight not end early. If they can beat Mill Wall and narrow the point gap to 9 single digits, then there is left In the next 21 rounds of the league, we can also witness the process of winning the championship."
"Martin, why? Although I like Millwall very much, and I don’t want the Premier League’s suspense to end before Christmas, today’s game must be a milestone. Millwall’s winning streak, winning streak record Refreshing to 21 games across the season, Manchester United's draw or victory will end the opponent's record, and at least can suppress Millwall's momentum and keep the points gap from being further expanded, so let us enjoy this game, Hopefully, the two teams will not play too conservatively."
Aldridge looked solemnly at the Manchester United players on the sidelines.
The goalkeeper did not use the new aid Bosnic, which was launched in the new season. It was a disappointing goalkeeper. From the media reports in the past few months, this goalkeeper is not only worthy of Manchester United, but also has professional qualities. Dare to compliment, the character is still very hot.
Manchester United has enabled substitute goalkeeper Vandergut. In addition to being older, this goalkeeper can only be regarded as quite satisfactory in the lineup of the top strong teams. There is no problem with the bench. If the main force is long-term, you can ignore it.
Elvin was scored on the defender line, and the main champion of the Champions League, Ronnie Johnson, who returned from the injury, returned to the starting lineup. Silvester served as the left back, and the offensive line in the frontcourt remained unchanged.
In addition to the replacement of Makelele's injury and Gattuso, Millwall's other main players are all starting.
Aldridge said: Manchester United's team still cannot solve the defensive problem.
He is full of confidence in the game. At least this time playing Manchester United is also a mental stimulus for the players. If you play a mid-level team that is not high or low, the fighting spirit may decline. The last game was against Newcastle United. Derrick’s team status is actively adjusted, but the player’s fighting spirit has declined in the game. Especially after the two goals lead, they don’t wait for Auderridge’s tactical adjustment, they have a tendency to relax, if not Newcastle United's strength is not good, maybe there will be a mess.
The referee whistled and the whole game started. The cheering in the stands was deafening. The fans of the crazy lion seemed to be doping. Their beloved team is making history and attracting the attention of the whole of Europe. How can this be done Are they not excited?
Manchester United kicked off, passed back, and then passed horizontally. It seemed that it was going to enter the state slowly.
When Millwall's players began to press forward, Aldridge frowned suddenly.
He found an unusual place. While he was still thinking, Manchester United's attack suddenly accelerated!
Neville made a direct pass to Beckham in the frontcourt. Beckham took the ball to turn around and did not accelerate. Behind him, Ronaldinho was chasing, and within three seconds he must be close to him. There was Zambro in front. Tower, Beckham chose to pass, unexpected short pass.
Scholes came over to get the ball and then passed the York who pulled out of the penalty area. The latter kicked the ball before Gattuso forced the ball and hit the straight. The route was reverse cut and the triangle passed.
Southgate stared at Cole, and Materazzi, who had recovered from the injury, and Schneider defended Giggs's inner line, but between the two central defenders, there was a figure straight forward, It happened to receive York's straight ball, lead the ball forward, and easily penetrated Millwall's defense!
Single pole ball!
The man chose to shoot and shot from a close range. Butt was unable to return to the sky and could only stare at the ball.
"Opening 29 seconds! Manchester United broke through Millwall's gate! The goal scorer was Roy Keane! The Manchester United captain unexpectedly went into the penalty area to complete the goal, Andy, you are right, this is a landmark Game, this should be the fastest record in the Premier League in Millwall Club history!"
Keane rushed to the visiting team's stand after scoring a goal, patting his chest towards the jubilant and encouraging Manchester United fans, a face of resoluteness pointing to the Manchester United team logo.
Crazy lion, stop dreaming!
Want to refresh the record on us, what are you as a red devil? !
This lost ball made Millwall's players a bit veiled. The most remorseful person was Nedved, who did not resolutely return to the penalty area at the last minute. When the attack was on Manchester United after the opening, Keane stepped forward and Nedved The German defense followed closely. Keane's B2B range of activities. Nedved was also used to marking defense in recent years. When Keane had a pause in front of the penalty area, he seemed to be responding to Scholes. Nedved also stopped to stabilize his focus and prepared to undermine his response, but Scholes did not pass the ball to Keane, who was in a better position, but risked to York, Keane started at the same time, and Nedved followed again. A step slower, a short distance burst, a second or two slower, that is a gap of 5-6 meters!
However, the players cheered up quickly. Southgate took the lead to inspire the morale of the players and made them forget about the lost goal. It's no big deal. Even this season, they have almost forgotten the taste of losing the ball.
Aldrich turned his head to look at Ferguson. Although the other party was also cheering and celebrating for the goal, there was still obvious tension, and the excitement was more profound than usual.
In a sense, Millwall’s strength has made the old Scottish man relive the pressure of the uncapped first when he took over Manchester United. He couldn’t be relaxed. He had to work hard all the time, and make every effort to make Manchester United stronger. In this key battle, don't look at his calm before the game, but the preparations may be more than the Champions League final.
When Ferguson won his third Premier League title in four years in 1996, he thought that as long as he could win a Champions League and bring this great team to the top of Europe, then he should retreat and enjoy his retirement. But when he won the Champions League in 1999, he had no such idea at all.
retirement?
He would not even consider retiring now, and would not tread Millwall led by Aldridge under his feet, his retirement would only be a retreat and timidity!
After applauding Keane's goal, Ferguson held his glasses and inadvertently glanced at Audridge and found that the other party was looking at himself. Ferguson showed a provocative smile.
Aldrich, the war between us has just begun!
You dragged my retirement plan back into the game!
This was probably a situation that Ferguson would never have imagined when he first met the young Audridge at home in the summer of 1994.
The "kid" who challenged the tradition in his eyes and should be eliminated by the mainstream, grows year by year to the strength of today's almost dominating side!
Aldridge saw Ferguson's smile, and also gave a smile, seemingly simple but revealing a sense of fun.
He looked away.
Today’s Manchester United is not the last season’s Manchester United nor the Charity Shield.
At least in terms of tactical play, there is indeed something unexpected.
It was Keane, or more precisely, Manchester United's midfielder and back defense system that made Aldridge frown at the opening.
Ferguson probably knows that the conventional style of play has been penetrated by Aldridge, one shot at a time, Giggs breaks through, Beckham crosses, Scholes plugs in, this kind of play that the Premier League knows, wants to play in Millwall In front of the wilderness, too underestimated the mad lion brushing 20-game winning streak!
Therefore, today United concealed the offensive point, the offensive group in the frontcourt remained unchanged, and Keane became a key figure in the penalty area.
He came straight to the door with a midfielder, which is really unexpected, which is more deep than the scope of his B2B activities.
But what about defense?
This is where Aldridge was surprised. Johnson, the Norwegian central defender, one of the excellent central defenders recognized in Europe in the past two years. If it is not an injury, he and Stam can ensure that the Manchester United defense line has no worries for five years. After returning, after Keane attacked, he immediately moved to the lower back position to take over Keane's defensive mission. Once he was counterattacked, he was the barrier of the defender line. Then, Manchester United left three guards.
This process of losing the ball at least made Aldridge figure out Manchester United's tactical arrangements today.
Ferguson, calm before the game, it was the who fought in the game!
