Chapter 615: One step, two steps.

Leeds United's tactical attitude is quite active, but from a strategic perspective, it has fallen behind.
Elland Road is their home court. They play at home first. If they can’t get a good result in 90 minutes, they will visit the Lion King Stadium in the next round. Mo said what the outside world thinks, at least they probably don’t believe in Lion King Stadium. create a miracle.
Pirlo's play in the initial activity area was restricted. He took the initiative to make changes and made a decision to withdraw the ball and organize.
When he went back and almost took the ball in front of the guard line to sort out the team's offense, Smith and Viduka did not dare to rush to grab, but could only withdraw the blocking of the offensive line. The main compression is the midfield area. area.
In this way, Pirlo can hold the ball and pass to ensure the success rate, the accompanying problem is: Millwall every attack has become a positional battle launched from the back line.
In the noisy Elland Road stadium, Aldridge found that in fact, Leeds players are still quite afraid of Millwall on the court, actively fighting, running widely, the characteristics of the Premier League team can be seen in them, but, When playing offense, Leeds United was a little afraid of fear, fearing that the offensive investment was too large but too late to defend.
Kelly and Hart's two full-backs in the backcourt had three inexplicable long passes in the frontcourt, which made Audridge confused.
The two's long pass routines are the same, both are from the full-back area to the full-back area, the first time the attack hit Millwall's full-back area, but the two full-backs of Leeds United are receiving the ball After falling into isolation, he quickly lost the ball.
If the offensive side kicks the ball into a "dead end", leaving teammates in isolation, then the offensive routine will have problems first.
Aldrich did not know whether the full-backs' irresponsible way of pilling was allowed by O'Reilly.
But if Leeds United plays such a non-threatening push forward, Millwall's defense can be a lot easier.
Aldridge pointed to Pirlo on the field and gave him a gesture.
Pirlo nodded when he saw it.
The other party restricts his initial activity space, which does not mean that he is fixed in that area invariably. In the process of contingency, he chose to retreat. Now, Audridge asks him to go forward, which is originally a choice. Choice, Pirlo sought stability, Aldridge gave him instructions to let him take risks.
In such a fierce competition, the "perfect enveloping circle" envisioned by Leeds United itself has a certain effect. To break this enveloping circle, the most critical release point is Pirlo. If you make a fuss on the front line, you will be in a positional battle. Leeds United almost put the whole team into defense, the compressed space of the striker itself is extremely narrow, and praying for the star to shine, it is equal to luck.
The premise of Pirlo's offensive position. In the 32nd minute, Gattuso passed the ball from behind Pirlo. Pirlo suddenly did not withdraw the ball and disturbed the marking defense of Viduka and Smith.
Viduka saw Pirlo passing the center line, he gave up, Smith did not, but because Pirlo itself is forward, start earlier, Smith became chasing after.
After Pirlo took the ball after halftime, Nedvide was originally defended by Cahill and Dakote. Instead, he did not support Pirlo. Instead, he ran farther from Pirlo.
Cahill saw that Nedved did not go in line with Pirlo, he took the initiative to intercept Pirlo, he just moved two steps, Pirlo will also face a double-team, Cahill in the front, Smith, Pirlo Still passing the ball out, the passing direction surprised Cahill.
The ball still passed in the direction of Nedved, but it should be late!
He made sure that Nedved didn't respond before he came to assist, but he turned around and regretted it.
Nedved's running away was actually a means of confusion. He saw Ronaldinho running towards the middle road, so he simply swapped with Ronaldinho. Between this electro-optical flint, Cahill, in order to block Pirlo, instead Ronaldinho has the ball to get rid of the space.
Ronaldinho faced with Dakote, and even saved his work. He directly passed a crotch ball. The ball passed between the legs of the French fighter. It was amazing. Ronaldinho passed the opportunity to pass the ball. What's more, this ball was passed to Henry. Henry took the ball back and ran back, facing the ball, he also opened his legs and the ball rolled between his legs.
Matteo, who was following Henry, stretched his foot to break when Henry missed the ball, but was carried by Henry using his body against him. His foot did not touch the ball, and the ball rolled behind them.
Ferdinand never dreamed that this trajectory would directly penetrate Mateo's defense zone. Apart from his shock, he was originally sealed by Nedved to run offside to make an offside. He exclaimed: It's finished!
If Henry slammed the ball to go straight, Nedvide must be offside, Ferdinand just spotted Henry running back, Matteo followed, and he deliberately stepped forward, entering and leaving Nedved Nedved was left offside.
But Henry didn't touch the ball, it was equal to Ronaldinho passing directly, Nedved did not offside at all!
Such a ball penetrated the defense line. Nedvide rushed to the penalty spot to take the ball. It was already a single-shot trend. Leeds United goalkeeper Martin abandoned the goal, Nedvide pushed the ball to the right, Lal Mori succeeded in shooting the empty goal!
"The goal has been scored! The goal has been scored! Leeds United lost a goal at home disastrously! Ronaldinho made a good pass through Leeds United's defense. Nedved faced a lone selfless assist to Larson, Mill Wall scored a valuable away goal, the game did not finish even half time, Leeds United seems to have come to the edge of the cliff!"
The stand at Elland Road Stadium was silent.
Throwing a goal at home is a heavy blow.
Aldridge's mouth was slightly raised, and Leeds United's vision was very good. The double forwards withdrew to harass Pirlo organization and limit Pirlo, which was equivalent to destroying the core of Millwall's offense and defense conversion.
However, there is no double back to protect the back line. As long as Millwall cracks Pirlo's situation, the attack will advance to the frontcourt and will immediately create opponent-marking chaos.
Putting Pirlo forward is an adventure, but the profit from the adventure is the most intuitive. As soon as he goes up, the defensive circle in front of the Leeds United penalty zone is cracked, Leeds United defends the division, and the Millwall attack group gets more space. At that moment, the Leeds united defense line was destroyed.
I have to say, Ronaldinho passed the ball, ecstasy!
O'Reilly was obviously angry on the sidelines.
But his anger was obviously not aimed at this goal drop. Before that, he was very excited on the sidelines, constantly gesturing with various gestures, shouting reminders to the disciples on the court, what exactly is required, Aldridge did not understand There is no uniform standard for the gestures of the coach on the spot.
O'Reilly's eyes flashed. The team's goal loss was indeed a blow, but he was more dissatisfied with the team's offense.
After playing the game for more than thirty minutes, Leeds United's established tactical offensive routine has not been played once!
These players obviously have psychological burdens, or they are afraid of Millwall, or they are obsessed with advancing to the finals. The defense is instinctive, but the consistency of the offense has diverged.
Isn't O'Leary illusory about advancing to the Champions League final or even holding the cup?
This is the third year he has officially coached the team. Although a trophy has not yet been obtained, it is far less than the younger man who has been compared for many times. However, if he can lead Leeds to the finals and Holding the cup, he, David O'Reilly, will be among the top coaches in Europe!
The top four in the Premier League and the quarter-finals in the Champions League, such a record looking all over Europe, what is it? In a coach's brilliant resume, who can proudly declare: I am the top four in the Premier League and the top four in the Champions League? That would only be a laughing stock!
The champion is the capital of the name.
Top league champions, European champions, Intercontinental international champions, this is the measure of top coaches.
One step, two steps, success!
On this penultimate step, who would give up easily? Who will face hastily?
In order to prepare for these two games, O'Reilly was a waste of sleep and sleep, frantically studying the Millwall game video. This kind of research has long been beyond the scope of league competition. After all, the league has 38 rounds and only played two games. The battlefield will be a chance to dominate the World War I, win Millwall, and get the tickets to the finals. That is a famous decisive battle!
O'Reilly will not fall here, Millwall can calmly face these two games, Leeds United cannot!
Don’t be crazy, don’t use anything to compete against Millwall who is so popular in UEFA!
This lost ball removed the psychological burden of the Leeds United team, coupled with O'Leary's excitement on the sidelines, the dead stand rejuvenated, and everyone cheered for Leeds United.
In fact, if Leeds United fell to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, this has been a glorious season for the club, but only for the Leeds United club itself, looking at England, the entire European football, no summit, no king, how can there be What great achievements can show off?
Leeds United re-launched, the game rhythm is still very fast, the Premier League team headed by Millwall, Manchester United, Liverpool and other teams, represented in the restoration of European football, at this stage is not relying on European football style, and It is to promote their own characteristics, physical fitness, confrontation, high-tempo fight, than art, they are far from the opponents of many European giants, but exert their specialty to the extreme, they can win a country that belongs to the colors of the Premier League.
After scoring, Millwall played a little relaxed and tried to control the game. This is what Pirlo is good at. The speed is moderate, and the opponent is caught by surprise.
Today, Millwall played in the Premier League civil war, inevitably fierce physical confrontation, Leeds United is quite fierce in this regard, the players in the team are not afraid of confrontation.
It was only in the 43rd minute that Aldridge realized that the original long pass between Kelly and Hart was not their blind long pass to pass the ball to the "dead end", but that the offensive players of Leeds United had failed to form a unity of thought and did not play Tactical effect.
And this time, they made it.
Hart's long pass in the backcourt, Schneider was originally to mark Kewell, but Kewell ran away, Viduka's striker instead pulled the edge to catch the ball, Schneider was depressed, the other was strong and strong More than a dozen centimeters higher than himself, Viduka passed the ball to Smith after the stop.
Gattuso went with him. Smith didn't dare to stop the ball. He directly took the ball and put the ball straight to the left. This was a triangle pass. Kewell took the ball to the bottom. Materazzi blocked the inside line. Schneider also Turning his head to defend, Kewell passed back outside the penalty area, Cahill suddenly plugged in, broke through Pirlo's defense and entered the penalty area, Gattuso just wanted to defend, Cahill shot from 45 degrees.
This is a tricky half-height ball. Palyuka flew to save the ball with a single palm, but the distance was too far. When he flew to the extreme, his hand was unable to exert his strength. The ball blocked the left side of the penalty area near the bottom line.
Kewell has an advantage in his own position. At this time, he followed up with a volley before Schneider's sliding shovel blocked and sent the ball into the upper corner of the goal under a narrow angle.
