Chapter 564: Fall to the ground

"The tenth round of the Premier League focus war is about to begin. Millwall sits at Lion King Stadium against North London’s neighbor Arsenal. The status of the two teams is worrying. The two teams have many foreign nationals. They have just returned from the national team game and traveled. The exhaustion brought about is unavoidable, but today’s game has a very important meaning. In addition to the 6-point battle of the championship group, it may also be a milestone battle for the Millwall Club. If Millwall can win today Or draw with Arsenal, they will tie a great record: 58 league unbeaten records in the five major leagues in Europe! This is a great record created by the last European dynasty team AC Milan, today, Millwall has the opportunity His name is written in the same chapter of the record as that team."
The rare attendance of Lion King Stadium is full today!
In the past few seasons, Millwall's home attendance rate has remained above 99%. This season, in the few home game attendance statistics, the average attendance rate is only 91%.
It’s not that the stadium is big, or that the number of fans who want to come in to see the ball is not enough to fill the stadium, but that many middle- and upper-class wealthy fans bought season tickets, either because of their remote residence or because of the lack of attraction in the home game. Let the attendance drop.
Like playing Arsenal at home today, fans who bought a season ticket are definitely not willing to miss it, and if they are playing relegation teams, some fans who do not care about the loss of money will be absent.
Arthur, Puskas, Ewen, the trio fixed in the Millwall stands in the past few years have now moved to the box, the audience, and two more, Arthur is sitting in the arms of Bert, Ewen Hold Earl.
The fans of the crazy lions are more relaxed. They are too confident in the team. They will no longer see 3 points more important than life in a league like ten years ago. I wish I could play hard with my opponents, win or lose. The fans will not be overly nervous.
Now there is a paragraph circulating among the fans:
It is Liverpool fans who start talking about the next season in May every year. It was the Manchester United fans who regretted the team's runner-up in May, and the Millwall fans who celebrated the team's championship in May.
It's not yet November. Millwall fans don't need to watch anything. The standings are nothing. It's meaningless anyway. Now enjoy the game. When May comes next year, prepare to prepare and brew. The team will bring them the championship. Great joy.
In today's battle of focus, Aldridge and Wenger sat on the coach seat very well. Both of them even had the same posture. They bent their elbows on the thighs, crossed their fingers, and looked like they were half dead. Frowning at the stadium.
Both coaches are bitter.
The FIFA virus is raging, the coach shouting and commanding hair while running, the player's physical state can not be reversed by mental stimulation.
Wenger should be better, but his opponent is too strong and worried.
Arsenal have gone two main forces in the summer, the formation change in the new season is not too big, and there are also excellent players on top.
It is still a 442 formation with double backs.
Goalkeeper: Seaman.
Defenders: Lauren, Adams, Keon, Silvinho.
Midfielders: Yongberg, Palor, Vieira, Pires.
Forwards: Bergkamp, ​​Ibrahimovic.
Aldrich is much bitter than Wenger.
Arsenal, at least Adams, Keon, Palor, three English players got a good rest, and Millwall almost all the main team went to the national team to report, even if Materazzi, Bout, Gattuso did not In the last game, there was also fatigue from the boat rider.
The most tragic thing is that Zambrotta reported to the Italian national team intact and returned to the injury list, requiring 3 weeks of injury.
Ronaldinho returned to the team at the latest time, due to factors such as distance and schedule. The game of the Brazilian national team ended at the latest. Ronaldinho crossed continents, across the hemisphere, and had a jet lag. The climate also had a contrast between the northern and southern hemispheres. Why is the earth so big?
Aldridge simply did not include Ronaldinho on the roster.
The kid was sitting in the box next to Arthur today, wearing a casual avant-garde costume, accompanied by a dignified blonde beauty, standing up before the game and waving to the fans...
Aldridge enabled Glencharr, Ashley Cole, and Klose to replace players who were injured or need to rest, still playing their usual 433.
From the beginning of the game, the two teams couldn't improve their speed. As long as the pace was accelerated slightly, the turnover rate in the final part of the attack was very high.
Henry and Larson's performance after repeating the running position repeatedly was a little worse.
Aldrich turned to Klinsmann and whispered: "I think I should be mean."
"Ok?"
Klinsmann was confused.
mean?
"I should recruit Keon and Palor into the national team, and then urge Adams to return to the national team, the reason can be said to provide experience. You see, today Adams and Keon are energetic, how good they are, Vieira Playing a bit out of standard, they have become a solid iron gate in the back line."
Klinsmann was speechless.
If it is really the original intention to make Arsenal's main force into a dog and recruit their England international to enter the national team, this, this is really mean and shameless!
Arsenal during this period, the defense is very tough.
In addition to the old and strong guard line, Vieira + Palool on the waistline, this is the roots of Arsenal's glorious period in the original history.
At the same time, the right-wing forward, Yong Berry, the Swed who loves to change his hair, is really both offensive and defensive. The number of defensive steals is always among the best in the Premier League.
Arsenal's offensive can't be said to be of any novelty. The side attack is mainly used. Before there is no purely organized midfielder, it is actually about speed and players.
In the 23rd minute, Aldridge got up from the coach seat, walked to the side of the court and gestured seriously to Gattuso, his right fist kept hitting the left palm, meaning he was ruthless!
Arsenal are now without Henry, but with Ibrahimovic, Ibrahimovic has nothing to say about his physical fitness. There are really few defensive players he can't carry, plus his feet are very flexible, and Gattuso is hard to carry. After breaking through the past two times, the scene is a bit ugly.
I don’t know if Gattuso went to the Italian national team for half a month and was brainwashed. He lost a lot of the mad dog spirit on the field today. It seems that he is learning to imitate that calm defense and accurate steals.
The two times just now, he lowered the center of gravity, Ibrahimovic took the ball from his back, he waited for Ibrahimovic to turn around, but he had short legs, Ibrahimovic had long legs, half of the body was stuck in position, and the other foot controlled The ball, Gattuso's legs stretched out, the ball did not touch, and then, lost his center of gravity, Ibrahimovic accelerated to wipe him.
Although Millwall does not emphasize that the player blindly grabs, but has reached the key area of ​​the foot, you have to go up and stick to the opponent, forcing the opponent to pass you even in the process of getting rid of quickly, but the ball distance will be Pull aside to create space for teammates, and the teammates in the back will intercept, and you will go to make up at the same time to ensure that the defense line will not appear empty.
For the time being, the team did not lose the ball, but according to Gattuso's defensive posture, it is estimated that his position will be overwhelmed. After all, there is another Bergkamp who has retired from the national team and has rested for half a month.
Gattuso felt the dissatisfaction of Aldridge. He also realized that it seemed that he learned the excellent defensive skills of the Italian predecessors. The actual combat was not reliable, so he adjusted it immediately and changed back to the previous way, flying on the waistline. Running nonstop, struggling with opponents.
There are three players of the Swedish national team on the field today, Ibrahimovic, Larsen, and Yongberg.
Yongberg and Ibrahimovic both played for Arsenal. They cooperated very well on the court. Pire and Bogkamp played together for a longer period of time. The two of them were very good. This made Arsenal's wing offense. When hitting the middle, it can often create a great threat.
Between 31 minutes and 43 minutes of the first half, Arsenal played against the visitors, pressing Millwall.
Aldridge stood in front of the coach seat and whispered to communicate with Jenson.
"I don't know if it's my illusion, why I always feel that Pirlo has disappeared on the defensive end today."
Jenson stood up and watched the game while whispering in Aldrich’s ear: "I also feel this way, maybe he is too tired, maybe Arsenal is the main attacker, the speed is fast, and the progress is direct. Pirlo's area was crossed, so he was rarely seen on defense."
Aldridge looked back and looked at the field with a frown, the absolute speed is not Pirlo's strength, the future pace of the Premier League will be faster and faster.
Today, playing Arsenal, the opponent's double waist, Pirlo has more room to move forward. As soon as he goes up, Arsenal will quickly hit the whirlwind on the side. Even if Pirlo has the heart to defend, his two legs do not run fast enough.
Aldridge walked to the side of the court to put Pirlo behind.
Arsenal was only conservative in the first half. They didn't dare to step forward with double backs. At best, they shot from a distance of about 35 yards from the goal. After shooting, they immediately turned back to defend.
I'm afraid Wenger never thought that today Arsenal is not too affected by the FIFA virus.
But his pre-match worries are not unreasonable. The most critical Vieira is indeed in a normal state, and full-back Lauren is also the most worrying part of his defense. He is afraid that Millwall will explode.
Today, Millwall’s offense is very general. The whole team suffered from the impact of FIFA virus. If you play in the middle and lower reaches of the team, you may still be able to maintain your advantage. However, when you play Arsenal, the turnover rate is more obvious.
If Wenger dared to let go today, Millwall may have lost the ball now.
Will Arsenal's advantage at the end of the first half make Wenger realize that he can take away the victory away?
At least, the advantage is a sign.
If it hadn't been for the past two seasons to play against Millwall and was confused, perhaps Wenger would not be so afraid, Aldridge's first priority is now to prevent the other side from expanding the advantage of the scene.
The first half is about to enter stoppage time, the game is a bit dull, Arsenal is slightly conservative, Millwall's turnover rate on offense is high, and there are only a few excellent shots.
When the fans in the stands have already left the seats to prepare for a break in the midfield, to buy some food to eat, drink, and the like.
But at this moment, a big change happened on the field!
Arsenal's offensive has been fierce in the last ten minutes, Ibrahimovic is eye-catching, and Gattuso is his opponent.
Just in the 15th second of stoppage time, Ibrahimovic took the ball back again, Gattuso was behind him, and he quickly stretched his foot from his foot to destroy the ball under his foot. Tusuo, the inside of the foot is going to get rid of the ball from the other side, Gattuso's foot can't hold back, kicking in the place where Ibrahimovic's foot happens to have neither shoes nor leg guards.
Ibrahimovic screamed and turned around angrily, but perhaps because of the boss, his arm fell on Gattuso's face, Gattuso fell to the ground in response...
