The Young Lion

13th FA Cup final.

The Champions League final on the 18th.

The day after winning the championship, the team was on holiday, but the coaching staff held a meeting in the club conference room to discuss how to face these two finals.

In the past, they also played in the finals consecutively, and even joined the league to continue the decisive battle on different fronts.

However, this season is different. Because the World Cup is about to take place, the European competition ends earlier and the interval between the seasons is shorter.

After examining the state of Liverpool’s final stage, Boas said, not optimistically: “We must send the main players to the game, and there can be no reservations, Liverpool got the qualification for the Champions League, and the semi-finals was to eliminate strong opponents like Chelsea. , They will do everything for the last stop of the season! We have a little care, this final is likely to encounter Waterloo, and will have a negative impact on the upcoming Champions League final.”

Even though Millwall is the champion in the league, Liverpool only got the fourth place in the league, but referring to the points scored by Liverpool this season, it exceeded 80 points!

This is a point that can definitely compete for the championship in the past Premier League era. It can be seen that Liverpool, led by Benitez, dare not say that the glory of the past has been restored, at least reaching a culmination of Liverpool in the past decade.

Aldrich sat on the top of the meeting room with Erlang’s legs. During the intense discussion with the coaching staff, he waved his hands to calm down the meeting room and said, “There is a saying that the times make heroes. We do our job well. Not enough, it depends on the current situation, whether we can create a heroic environment, Liverpool, Chelsea, these are our familiar opponents, the worst case, we can foresee, make this psychological preparation, and then, wait for reality to come Now, let’s deal with it again.”

The problem before Millwall is: opponents are more likely to target them, but they are more difficult to target them!

Just like Chelsea in the Champions League final, what is Millwall thinking about?

Break intensive defense!

Instead of thinking about how to limit Chelsea’s offense.

In terms of attitude, Chelsea must be conservative. Since it is so, it is not difficult to think hard about how to limit Chelsea, but most of it is a waste of time. The other party will not take the initiative to attack. What is the point of trying to limit the other party?

In the end, what tricks will Benitez and Mourinho use against Aldridge in the game?

He is useless to guess. His main energy can only be concentrated on his own side. He has determined the starting of the two games, paying attention to the physical condition and physical condition of the players, and as far as possible to integrate the various factors to send the strongest lineup.

On May 13th, Millwall and Liverpool club Wales Cardiff Millennium Stadium.

In the seats full of seats, the red blood of Liverpool fans in Red Army seemed to be particularly eye-catching!

Although he has also won the UEFA Cup in the past, he never met Millwall, the European hegemon, in such a scene. As a status upgrade and a leap in strength, he could finally stand in front of the king and pull out his sword. Declare war!

Before the game started, Aldridge shook hands with Benitez on the sidelines. Aldridge leaned in front of Benitez and whispered: “Raphael, how are we going to solve the battle in 90 minutes today?”

Benitez pushed his glasses, and Shen Sheng replied: “Why? Don’t you feel late playing psychological warfare at this time?”

Aldridge shrugged and smiled indifferently: “I’m just telling the truth, you know, Millwall can’t spend 120 minutes with Liverpool today, not to mention the heavy impact of the penalty shootout on the player’s psychology, winning Fortunately, I really lost. Haha, is Millwall going to kneel and go to France to fight with Chelsea again?”

These remarks were straightforward and pertinent.

Benitez nodded subconsciously, and then his face was tense, and he stared at Audridge with vigilance, a sense of suspicion.

That’s right, when Benitez speculates on the opponent’s mentality, there are good and bad factors.

How he hoped that Millwall would go to Chelsea and Liverpool would go on!

Regardless of the success or failure of this game, Benitez feels that he is helping Mourinho, and he and Mourinho, hehe, just like Ferguson and Wenger, are dead!

But there are also good factors. The UEFA Champions League is ultimately heavier than the FA Cup, Millwall has a thought burden, and Liverpool can let go of everything to go to this game.

“If Millwall wants to solve the battle in 90 minutes, then try it.”

Benitez dropped this sentence and turned to his coach seat.

Aldridge smiled.

“The 2005-2006 season of the FA Cup final is about to start. This year’s finals are the two biggest players in England. Millwall and Liverpool. Millwall need not say much. They are the world’s top teams. Liverpool is a traditional giant. He didn’t get a good result in 2014 and was absent from the Champions League for a long time. When the outside world thought that Liverpool might fall into the abyss like Nottingham Forest, Benitez took the second year in office and won the league first in the Premier League this season. Four, next season, the Reds Liverpool will return to the Champions League! Benitez has made fans regain confidence in Liverpool. Today, there may be a big gift for the fans: FA Cup champion! Millwall has one in five days In the Champions League final, but as the trophy harvester, they should not easily let Liverpool take the trophy away!”

Under the spotlight, this FA Cup final officially kicked off.

Millwall launched a stormy attack from the first minute!

This surprised the outside world.

Because Millwall still has a FA Cup final, logically speaking, this game should be conservative and conservative.

Aldrich held his chin, he really couldn’t let Millwall go crazy like that for 90 minutes, and maybe even 120 minutes to fight hard.

He is just grabbing the start!

Set a tone for the whole game.

In the first 30 minutes, do everything to decide the game!

If it can’t be achieved, you have to take it back and fight with Liverpool. As time goes on, as long as there is no physical problem, Audridge believes that Millwall’s championship temperament will definitely overwhelm Liverpool!

Benitez was caught off guard by the sidelines.

In fact, Aldridge said that the fight was resolved within 90 minutes. Benitez listened to these words in reverse. He even thought that Millwall would kill Liverpool from the beginning, and wait until Liverpool showed anxiety and entered the momentum. force.

And the tactics he developed for Liverpool are also the start!

Can’t lose to Mad Lion in momentum!

Otherwise, the whole game will be under the shadow of a crazy lion!

Chacha Millwall’s most worried situation did not appear.

For Millwall, what are the most difficult situations in the FA Cup and the Champions League finals?

Liverpool and Chelsea both have buses!

In order to win, Millwall must pay more energy and patience, of which the test of mentality is very important.

But Benitez did not swing the bus. Liverpool faced Millwall directly after the opening and pulled the scene open to fight the attack!

Aldridge breathed a sigh of relief. Although the situation was not too good, it was definitely not the worst!

The picture that most worried Benitez appeared in the 14th minute of the first half.

Millwall destroyed the Liverpool defense system in the league again!

In the 14th minute of the game, Ram came to the midfield, and after stopping the ball, he directly cut into the middle to push the offensive, which disrupted the defense system of Liverpool’s midfield. After attracting multiple defensive players, the ball was immediately handed over to the other. Ronaldo on one side, at the same time, the little Roller edged, Kaka inserted forward, but Ronaldo also drove the ball diagonally inwardly, and then attracted Sissoko and Carrick to defend. Passed to Ronaldinho. The latter already had a passing space in front of him. The ball was sent to the ribs of the penalty area with a concealed straight plug. Kaka outflanked the middle of the front door. Henry pretended to pass the ball after receiving the ball. The key point is that Hypia lost her focus in order to block the pass!

After Hypia turned his center of gravity, cold sweat appeared on his forehead, because he saw that Henry was kicking the ball back, and then took a horizontal step to shake Hypia away!

Obliquely to the goal, Henry calmly pushed the ball and sent it into the goal!

“Milwall seized the first after the opening! The cooperation between Ronaldinho and Henry. Henry shoved Hypeia in the penalty area and pushed the shot. Liverpool was bad. The score fell shortly after the opening, which made them next. Will be in trouble.”

The Liverpool congregation will probably have realized this goal drop, because playing Millwall, there is no team in Europe that dare not say not to drop the ball!

Liverpool morale did not suffer much, continue to attack firmly!

The Millwall team hesitated.

In their pre-match preparations, the coaching staff’s requirement for the game is that they must attack in the first 30 minutes, return to balance after taking the lead, dominate the control, and only boldly attack when the offensive opportunities are better.

Now the score is ahead, they naturally take it back, but Liverpool is like a wild beast, regardless of having been injured once, and attacking wildly!

Under the scruples of convergence, Millwall was soon equalized by Liverpool after 3 minutes!

Gerard, who played an exceptionally eye-catching role this season, shot long from outside the penalty area. After being refracted, the ball rebounded on Schneider’s leg who was defending the penalty area. He immediately stepped forward to make a clearance, but Kewell was the first to poke the ball. In front of the goal, Irving, who moved like a rabbit, stretched his foot in front of Bout to poke the ball into the goal!

The Millwall defender immediately raised his hand to signal that Owen was offside. From a slow-motion replay, Owen was suspected of offside, but it was in the slightest, and it was difficult to blame the referee.

“Liverpool equalized the score! The goal scorer was Irving! The score changed twice in 3 minutes. 1:1. Liverpool’s goal will boost their morale!”

That’s right, 0:0 and 1:1 have a very different impact on Liverpool’s morale. Equalizing the score is very effective in boosting morale, especially against opponents like Millwall.
