As soon as the second half began, Millwall played a wave of blitzkrieg.

When tactically unable to overwhelm the opponent, it is necessary to make a fuss about the pace of the game.

Aldridge likes this, although the penetration attack in the first half was fruitless, it will inevitably paralyze the opponent, making the opponent think that Millwall will still play like this in the second half, so once Millwall suddenly changes his style of play and rhythm, the global shock caused is not trivial.

The first five minutes and the last five minutes of each half of the game are the biggest mental flaws for the players.

In the first five minutes, it takes different players to get into the rhythm of the game, and in the second five minutes, the concentration of some players will inevitably drop as the game is about to end or end.

After Millwall's kick-off in the second half, Pirlo did not pass the ball forward, but slowly walked around in the midfield like a dying old man, easily dodging Wright's pressing with a half-turn to protect the ball, and then made a one-two with Makelele, and let Bergkamp return in vain, when Pire took a step towards his side and seemed to help defend, Pirlo lightly distributed the ball to the right side.

Pire was shocked, the ball rolled in front of his eyes, he didn't have to look to know that someone must be flying behind him, Schneider!

Schneider rushed forward with the ball, and he continued to fight today, especially for the full-backs who went straight up and down, he would naturally be tired, but he gritted his teeth and persevered, distributed his physical energy reasonably, and rushed first at the beginning of the second half!

Schneider's dribbling break disrupted Arsenal's defence, Gudjohnsen roamed around the flanks and the German took the lead when Winterburn had to press Schneider. Got a foot cross in front of the baseline.

The ball seemed to be a big pass. Fly directly over the front of the door. Then it began to fall, and neither Adams nor Keown touched the ball, and when they turned their heads to look, they saw that the Ukrainian had shaken off Dixon and rushed up bravely.

Probably he rushed a little harder, and it was obviously impossible to stop and adjust the action of the shot, so Shevchenko jumped directly to the top, and his head had a very perfect contact with the ball. The ball flew towards the Arsenal goal like a volley with his feet.

It was Millwall's third shot on goal in the game, far less than Arsenal's nine in the first half.

But it was such a rare opportunity, and Shevchenko seized it!

Seaman didn't touch the ball, it flew straight into the corner of the goal!

"Wow! The Ukrainians head the ball! This header is so beautiful, there is definitely a chance to challenge for the best goal of the round! Millwall took the lead at the start of the second half and Arsenal were unlucky, scoring a goal on their third shot while they had nine shots on goal and six times without scoring a goal! ”

Shevchenko gave his team a one-goal lead. Aldrich was pleasantly surprised, but he was faced with a difficult choice.

The away side took the lead. Is it defending or attacking?

There is still a lot of time in the game, and it seems unwise to make adjustments at this time, and the team is now playing 4231, and the defensive line has shrunk conservatively.

Arsene Wenger was speechless.

Highbury's Gunners fans were even more speechless.

There is no heavenly reason!

You lions win when you play well, you can take the lead when you don't, Malegobi, Lady Luck also participates in Christmas sex parties and gets and by your players in turn!

The goal was more infuriating than a blow to the Arsenal players.

Obviously they have the upper hand, but they are still behind, are you all Germans?

Lineker once said: Football is a game in which 22 people play 90 minutes and the Germans win.

The gunslinger's counterattack was fast and extremely fast!

Six minutes later, Gudjohnsen's shot from outside the box was blocked, and Trezeguet's close-range shot was blocked by Seaman and then picked the ball into his arms.

Arsenal counter-attack.

In this counter-attack from the goalkeeper position, Adams passed the ball to Dixon, who then gave the ball to Vieira, who gave the ball back to Overmars, Peter Pan broke down the side, shook Capdevilla with dazzling stop-and-turn skills, and then passed the ball to Bergkamp.

In the course of this series of counter-attacks, Arsenal did not let the Millwall players touch the ball, and it was lightning fast.

Aldridge watched from the sidelines as the players on both sides moved, but his eyes were drawn to one man.

The man was Adams, who had run up from the small penalty area.

The opponent ran forward at a constant pace, approaching Millwall's line like a ghost.

Aldridge pointed at Adams' man from the sidelines and shouted, "Bernd, go and keep an eye on him!" ”

Schneider, who was closest to Aldridge, heard Aldridge's roar and immediately gave up on Pire and instead focused on Adams, who had already arrived in front of the penalty area.

But a step too late.

Bergkamp, who was dribbling the ball, made a breakaway feint, shook off the angle in front of Southgate, and then kicked the ball with the arch of his foot to the other side of the six-yard box.

It was a diagonal pass, Wright in front of the goal attracted Elguera, but neither of them touched the ball in the confrontation, Bout also thought it would be Wright to end the attack, but he didn't expect the ball to roll a meter in front of Wright, when Bout followed the direction of the ball rolling and his eyes shifted, he was stunned to find that the tall Adams came up and sent the ball cleanly into the goal with a volley in front of Schneider.

Schneider kicked the post in exasperation.

He is not to blame for this goal.

But he blamed himself more, Adams went all the way from the back line to the forward line to score, who would have thought?

Last season the opposition also had central defenders to assist, but at that time the opponent was in a back five formation, now it is a back four, and the use of guards with knives is very risky, but Arsenal seem to have such a tradition.

This unexpected attack is even more threatening, because the attacking point is so deeply hidden that the centre-backs are unable to defend against it in the sports battle.

Adams slowed down after scoring and stood in front of the bottom line billboard, looking around the stands of Highbury with a proud face, as if the king had returned!

yes, how long has it been since Arsenal been so domineering?

Now they have not only regained their royal temperament, but also have a gorgeous coat than before.

Gunners fans were thrilled. See Adams' domineering posture after breaking the goal. Swinging his fists and screaming.

That's right!

What bullshit King of London!

We at Arsenal were the kings of England. The mad lion still doesn't know where the road is!

"Captain Adams of the Gunners stepped up! He equalized for the team! Arsenal, who have been suppressed by Millwall for more than two years, finally had the momentum to compete in today's game, they have the advantage, and there is no doubt that although they are more conservative than Manchester United, they are pursuing goals again and again through counter-attacks, and it will be interesting to see what the outcome of today's game will look like. ”

Aldridge crossed his arms on the sidelines, his expression solemn.

Arsenal in this period were helpless. It's trickier and more powerful than Manchester United, because Manchester United is bound to be superior to their opponents in terms of posture, so playing Manchester United's counter-attack can do a lot of work.

However, the Arsenal that Wenger trained at this time is mainly defensive, and the offense relies on counterattacks, which makes people unable to start.

Ten years later, Arsenal, even if the positional battle is gorgeous, is in a strong posture, and is often hit and dies quickly.

But now, with Vieira and Petit in the back. Arsenal's ageless golden backline is really a static defense. As long as the frontcourt players come back to support, they are almost invulnerable.

After the problem of switching from defense to attack a few months ago was solved, Arsenal has undergone a fundamental transformation, and can attack and defend well!

Then the game became more intense, and you went back and forth to make the stands repeatedly exclaim.

Seeing that the game came to the eighty-fourth minute, Ovimas was cut off by Makelele on the wing, who handed the ball to Pirlo, which was a golden opportunity to counterattack!

Pirlo's pinpoint pass gave the ball to Ballack in front.

The German took the ball and turned to play it straight to Trezeguet, who was diagonally ribbed.

However, Vier stretched out a kick to cut off the ball at Ballack's feet.

Arsenal fight back again!

Aldrich felt bad, this scene was all too familiar.

It's the same rhythm Millwall played against Arsenal a few months ago.

When the opponent makes a mistake in counterattacking, he will turn the muzzle of the gun to counterattack, which will make the opponent even more unguardable.

Recycle, recycle, protect space first, protect space first!

Aldridge roared in his heart, and the players made the conscious effort to do so.

Vieira distributed the ball to the side again, Ovimas just suffered a loss, did not dare to break through again, the first time to knock the ball across the side, Vieira strode forward and retreating Bergkamp made a one-two to break through Pirlo's defense, Vieira has faced Millwall's penalty area of the most behind a backline.

Makelele was defending Ovimas just now, and at this time, it seems that the recovery is also in place.

Wright caught the attention of the two centre-backs, with Bergkamp also cutting forward into the ribs of the box, leaving the two centre-backs to be distracted.

Patrick Vieira slotted the ball out before Makelle could defend in place.

The route of the ball was a surprise.

Neither to Wright nor to Bergkamp, but Pire, who cut inside from the left wing.

Pire's inside line did not go deeper into the penalty area, but took a step sideways with the ball, pulled out the angle of the shot, and then took a long shot!

The ball arced from the middle of Southgate and Elguera to the back post of the Millwall goal, and it was a dead corner!

Aldridge saw the shot on the sidelines and prayed: pounce, pounce, pounce!

rumble

Highbury is boiling!

'Pire's long-range shot from the edge of the box found the way through Millwall! 2:1, Arsenal reversed the score! Millwall were beaten by the combination of two veterans, Vieira and Pire, who were exactly the best players Millwall produced, only to have a merciless stab at Millwall! Andy, will the defending champions suffer two straight defeats on the road? ”

"If you lose two games in four days, this New Year is probably the most depressing Millwall in recent years, I have to say that Arsenal performed better in this game, their attack is more threatening, thanks to their solid backline, Adams, Keown these players have rejuvenated under Arsene Wenger, you can hardly feel that the average age of this back line is close to 30 years old, Millwall, who are short of major generals, are in poor form today, maybe affected by the loss to Manchester United and the scandal, but even if this game is lost, They're not the end of the world either, and from another point of view, Hall should be thankful that the team is out of trouble at this time, not two months later! If the team's problems are revealed again in two months' time, it can be devastating for a season's effort! ”

After the reversal, Aldridge did not surrender on the sidelines, he took the risk of replacing a striker and letting Ruud van Nistelrooy go up to partner Trezeguet, and the game time was running out, Millwall played more directly, which was to hoist a high ball into the box, but this style of play did not have much effect, and in the last few minutes, they did not even have a shot on goal.

At the end of the game, the Gunners fans at Highbury were reveling, and the Lions fans left the stadium silently, without any blame for the team, even though they lost to the Gunners for the first time in four years, even if they met Graham's Arsenal in the cup when he was in the first division, Millwall won, but today, they lost in their first London derby against Arsenal.
