132 Highlights
"Millwall has scored! There was chaos in front of the Aston Villa goal, the ball was kicked into the goal by someone who didn't know who kicked it into the goal, the referee signaled that the goal was valid, and Millwall equalized! Larsson stood up and ran wildly to celebrate, through the slow-motion replay, it was indeed he who fell to the ground and poked the ball into the goal with his toes, and the ball rolled under Augustus's elbow, Larsson was so good, he was able to score goals in a reasonable and unreasonable way, as long as he could hit the ball into the goal, he could do anything! ”
Larsson smiled with his arms outstretched as he ran wildly along the sidelines, his team-mates chased him after him, Wembley flashed on the sidelines, and countless reporters and fans in the stands recorded the moment with their camera cameras.
When Aldrich saw this scene, he silently said in his heart: Run, laugh wildly, Henrik, this is your moment, and it is also Millwall's moment, and I once swore to you: You are superstars, don't let my wild words fall through!
Larsson was quickly caught by his teammates, not only his teammates on the field, but also Ballack and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, who rushed out of the bench, and they showed their true feelings for the game-saving goal, everyone roared at each other, smiling at each other to give each other the confidence of victory, the strength of faith was contagious to each other, and in the process of walking back to half-time, the boys were all in high spirits, like invincible gods.
Aldridge hurried to call Claude Makelele in front of him and told him to return to the central midfield position and bring Gareth Southgate back to centre-back to equalise and Millwall needed to balance the tactical system.
Will it weaken the offense? Absolutely, but with Pire-Nedved-Schneider in midfield and Aston Villa's midfield in equal numbers, Aldridge doesn't think Millwall will be at the back.
The key point is in the penalty area, as long as Materazzi can continue to entangle Simeka, Millwall still has the initiative in the game.
Brian Little's face changed when he saw the ball conceded, and he waved his players from the sidelines to keep their players on defending.
When it comes to adaptability, Brian Little is obviously not good at it, the tactics he arranged before the game were very effective in the first half, everything was going according to his plan, but in the second half, the situation changed abruptly, and his tactical arrangement became a shortcoming, so he didn't know how to adjust his tactics at this moment.
Aston Villa's tactics of 532, the backfield is five defenders and three midfielders, and the defensive protection is all-round, which is equivalent to encircling the penalty area, like a fortress, Millwall's attack in the first half is also all-round, right in the middle, and there is no way.
But in the second half, Millwall gave up the wing, attacked the middle, and concentrated on bombing in the local area, which made Aston Villa's two full-backs defensive useless, whether they were the same, because the attack did not go to their side at all, and the full-backs returned to the penalty area to interfere with their teammates and mess up.
If Aldridge is Little, he will definitely let the full-back go directly to the full-back position, which can not only harass the midfielder, but also form the most direct attack point in the counterattack, which is a desperate style of play, but on the football field is to have the courage to fight desperately, but unfortunately, Little does not have the courage, he feels that the game is just back to the starting point, the big deal is the penalty in extra time.
The Millwall fans in the stands seemed to have returned from hell to the mortal world, and everyone exhaled.
After the goal, Arthur and his old friends jumped and jumped, turned around and hugged each other, and even kissed each other's heads, even if they were scolding each other before, they all hugged each other to celebrate, and lived to their age, so that they would not be as careful as pampered children.
After kick-off again with Aston Villa equalised, and their defence no longer watertight, with Simeka unable to play a destructive role in dragging down the centre-backs, Millwall's attacking threat was frequent.
When Aldridge noticed that Aston Villa had not made offensive adjustments, he glanced at Brian Little, whose face had become solemn, and said viciously in his heart: The wind of the game has changed!
0:0 and 1:1 are no different in the meaning of a single cup match, both are draws.
However, the situation of the game has changed dramatically.
This change comes from a state of mind.
Millwall came from behind to naturally be more courageous, while Aston Villa began to have a bit of an unbalanced mentality, and the idea of sticking to it may not be able to be consistent again, from leading to being equalized, it was like being robbed of something, they would not be reconciled, they would want to score another goal against Millwall, anyway, they have proven that they are capable of breaking through the opponent's door.
Such a change directly led to the lack of cooperation between the players at Aston Villa in some places.
Goalscorer Kosic didn't get a long pass to the front after receiving Staunton's pass, because he couldn't see York on the passing line, so he carried the ball forward himself, and after Schneider scrambled and conceded the ball, he didn't have time to complain about his teammates' lack of assists, and immediately turned back to defend.
When Nedved got the ball, Taylor decisively chose to foul directly, and then he beckoned to Kosic and motioned for the opponent to come back and defend, not rushing forward to attack.
A direct free-kick in front of the penalty area, this free-kick was placed on the right side of the box, standing in front of the ball was Schneider, and behind the penalty line there were three Aston Villa defenders lined up in the wall.
Ahead of the far post, Millwall's attacking players were crowded together.
Headers Stam, Nedved, Larsson and Trezeguet lay in ambush here, with Andreas Pire and Claude Makelele looking for a second chance from outside the box.
"Huh? The attacking and defensive positioning of this free-kick is strange. Millwall's attacking players all rushed to the far post, seemingly trying to meet Schneider's curling ball in a diagonal manner, which drew Aston Villa's defenders to the past, and York and Taylor were wary of Pire's and Makelele's backs on the edge of the penalty area, and it was a strange sight that Aston Villa was in front of a no-man's land in the centre. ”
It looks like it's wide open in the middle, Millwall may choose to take a free-kick straight across the middle to Makelele or Pire, or it may be a direct cross to the top of his team-mate's head, either way, which makes goalkeeper Augustus like a man, he always keeps an eye on the far post, and then he has to stare ahead, and when he starts to pay attention to Schneider who kicks off, he finds that the opponent's eyes have been staring at the far post.
Schneider's free-kicks are of high quality, but there are not many goals, because many direct free-kicks are played by crosses, after all, there are many attacking players in the team who are good at heading the ball.
The jersey was soaking wet and Schneider was sweating down, but he didn't feel tired at all and didn't have time to fix his somewhat messy hairstyle, he stared at his teammates at the far post and started running.
Sweat drips down and is crystal clear.
Boom
The surface of the foot makes a lot of noise when it comes into contact with the ball.
That's when Schneider turned his gaze in the direction he was really going to kick the ball in.
Augustus moved half a step ahead of time in a panic, and this half step made him regret it immensely!
He moved to the right, because that was the direction of the far post, but the ball flew from the human wall, that is, the near post, at a positive angle, and the speed was so fast that Augustus could easily open his arms to block the position of the ball when he took a step to the left.
However, Augustus turned his head to look behind him to the left after moving half a step, and the ball rolled into the net, and he fell to his knees with his legs limp, covering his face with his hands, and embarrassed himself.
Scammed!
"Wow! Wow! What was Augustus doing? Schneider's free-kick goes straight to the goal! This free kick has no other characteristics except for the speed, the rotation arc is not obvious, and the angle is not tricky, but Augustus let the ball fly into the goal from the front, why did he move to the right of Lu in advance? Was it attracted to Millwall's attacking players on the left? Maybe he will tell us the truth after the game, and now, Millwall has overtaken the scoreline! Thirteen minutes left in the game! Millwall are thirteen minutes away from their first trophy in history! ”
Schneider jumped high after scoring, waved his arms, and then rushed to the coach's box, where Aldridge and all the coaches and players on the bench were waiting for him, and when he rushed over, Aldridge grabbed him and lifted him high.
This match was undoubtedly Schneider's highlight game.
The first goal came from his instigation, and the second came from his free-kick.
Even goalkeeper Keller rushed over and hugged the whole team as if they had won the game.
Wembley was boiling, and in addition to the eclipsing of more than 10,000 Aston Villa fans, the blue sea rippled like waves for a long time.
Arthur yelled frantically around, "We're ahead!" We're ahead! My son is the most amazing! He'll take that damn trophy home and give it to every Millwaller! Grass, long live Millwall! ”
The old men around him began to take off their jerseys and wave them in their hands, dancing retro dance steps in excitement, cheering long live Millwall.
The fans were jubilant and excited, but Aldridge hugged Materazzi after the celebration, gritted his teeth and said: "Marko, go back to the back line, you play left wing-back, there is only one task, to disrupt the opponent's attack, but be calm, don't give the opponent set-pieces easily." ”
Materazzi nodded vigorously, and then Aldridge said to Nedved: "Pavel, you drop back first, and after I replace Patrick, you go back to the midfield position." ”
Nedved nodded fiercely.
As soon as the players began to return to the field, Aldridge handed over the list of players.
After equalising, Aldridge sent all the substitutes to warm up, except for the goalkeeper.
Now, he has removed Pire and Schneider with Vieira and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Dial 4231 instead.
Although Materazzi is not a full-back, Aston Villa do not have a strong right winger today, and Aldridge now has to control the midfield, and then when the opponent attacks, the space behind them will be larger, so Millwall's attack will need speed.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Larsson were on the flank, with Trezeguet at the top of the pitch and a three-shot shot.
Aldridge is determined to win this victory!
PS: Thank you for the reward of "Lao Tzu called the film"!
