After Trezeguet's goal, he ran wildly to the corner flag position and closed his eyes and roared in celebration, his teammates flocked to him, everyone knew that this goal made a fundamental reversal of the situation, Millwall was slightly at a disadvantage, the score was a draw, everyone was on the same starting line, but Millwall played away, naturally at a disadvantage.

But after this goal, Monaco were directly forced into a desperate situation, even if they scored the equaliser at home, it was not enough, and they had another goal on the basis of Millwall's next goal!

Aldridge saw this goal, his right hand was pulled out of his pocket and smashed into a fist in front of him, his eyes were extremely determined, and the other coaches and players were cheering for this goal, and they took a solid step towards Amsterdam!

In the process of preparing for the game before the game, Aldridge resolutely removed Shevchenko and started Glenschal, many coaches did not understand, and also thought that it was too risky, in the coach's evaluation, it is intuitive that Glenschal's scoring ability is definitely not as good as Shevchenko, which is undoubted.

And even if the coaching staff is inclined to play Ronaldinho even if he has excellent individual ability, Aldridge is adamant about using Glen Char.

When he wants to use a player, the purpose may not be particularly direct, he needs a player to serve the team tactics, rather than expecting a player to come on the pitch and dominate the game.

Xiao Luo's comprehensive evaluation of personal ability has surpassed Glen Shire, but his invisible ability is far from that of Glen Shire, that is: tacit cooperation with the team!

To create team chemistry, let the individual abilities of the 11 players superimpose beyond expectations. Team chemistry is key.

Like Millwall's smooth offensive coordination in the last two seasons. A strong line of defense. That's all because these players have been honed by playing together for two or three years, especially the continuous attack, the offense with multi-foot passing and running coordination, and it takes a long time to play together to reach the realm of "heart and soul".

Glenschal did not disappoint Aldridge, not only forcing the Monaco defence to shrink through his individual ability, making the opposition pay attention to his presence, the defense was to distract his side, but also passing the ball decisively when it should be passed. By no means procrastinating, he has performed better than the classical winger in the original history, and he deserves to start today!

Aldridge made a downward gesture to the players on the field after the celebration, even if he scored a goal to celebrate, he did not smile, he just wanted to tell the players: now, it is not the time to laugh!

Nedved retreated deeper in position, and then plugged in at high speed to play with teammates when counterattacking, mainly to strengthen the defense.

This time Millwall is more determined to play defensive counter-attacks, and in terms of rhythm control. They are also more composed.

Now, we can kick slowly!

Tigana was grim behind the goal. It was only then that he realized that perhaps he had overestimated the difference in strength between Monaco and Millwall.

Before the semi-final meeting, he did not think that Monaco and Millwall were on the same level, Millwall was stronger, there is no doubt that if Monaco was in Millwall's group, they would definitely not be able to get a full victory, and if they met Juventus, they might go home.

However, the outside world does not see it that way.

The Monaco players didn't think so either.

Millwall are a young team, a strong team of young talents, Monaco is not far behind, and there are many young talents who are appreciated and noticed by the outside world.

Moreover, when they played Manchester United, Manchester United's traditional powerhouses were more impressed, and they suppressed Millwall in the league, they eliminated Manchester United, should they be afraid of Millwall?

Playing conservatively away and getting the draw you want, when you return to your home stadium, you will naturally have to pull off your opponent.

Tigana cupped his forehead and pondered, if from the beginning, Monaco played an absolute defensive counter-attacking tactic, even at home, and played conservatively, perhaps, the probability of promotion would be higher, and it was the miscalculation of the difference in strength between the two teams, when Millwall in this more cautious and careful arena, in a more sophisticated way, forced Monaco to the brink.

Millwall learned from the last game at the beginning of the home game unrestrained play, the away game is extremely low-key, and the tactics are very targeted, the two wingers cut inside to compress the middle, the wing is very empty, at first Monaco's full-backs were still fearful, but Millwall's full-backs did not dare to assist.

However, Millwall's tactical design must have been premeditated.

Defensive counter-attack, attacking 4 people.

Defensive counter-attack, attacking 4 people.

Defensive counter-attack, attacking 4 people

In the first twenty minutes, Millwall was such a rhythm, but Millwall suddenly made a force!

In the counterattack of the goal, Millwall added a midfielder and full-back to the danger area, and it was Capdevilla's set of edges that attracted the Monaco defense to retreat sharply, and then pressed by Pirlo near the line of the big penalty area, so that the Monaco defense had to premise, and in this short period of time, there was a fatal hole in the adjustment of the defensive line, and Pirlo's role as a passing master easily assisted Trezeguet to score.

Tigana turned his head to look at Aldridge, although the other party was younger than him, he was impressed in his heart: the Aldridge who watched the European Cup together two years ago, most of the French coaches who have passed the age are still in the mentality of seniors who watch rising stars, but now Aldridge is more old than many famous coaches!

Now that Monaco is cornered, Tigana is left with only one choice: attack, rush!

Forcing players like crazy is to prevent Millwall from controlling the tempo of the game, and attacking is to score goals.

With an hour left and Monaco scoring two goals, there's really no room to slow down.

In terms of individual ability, Millwall are not weaker than their opponents on every front, and in such a situation, even if Monaco starts to scramble, they still have the initiative in the game.

Millwall don't kill time with boring inverted feet, but they do add more lateral passes, so Monaco has to have a tilt of gravity no matter how they grab. No matter how fast people are. I can't outrun the ball.

Whenever Monaco scrambles to enter a brief period of physical exertion and need to take a breather. Millwall launched another offensive and played more threatening than before!

However, Monaco switched from defense to attack after the successful defense, but because of the scramble, it could not start the first time to sprint forward at the highest speed, and the counterattack could not be played, so it could only play a positional battle, which was in the arms of Millwall, and was not afraid of the opponent's frontal attack.

The first half ended quickly and Millwall returned to the dressing room with a one-goal lead.

At halftime. Aldridge mainly set up the defensive task for the second half, and with 45 minutes remaining, they will be able to qualify for the final, even if they stick to it for 45 minutes.

Tigana made a noticeable change in his team's tactical approach at half-time and boosted the morale of the team.

In the second half, Monaco no longer sought to be fast in positional battles, but tried to stabilize the tempo and organize the penetration attack through patient inversions.

However, Millwall defended more and Nedved almost became a midfielder, allowing Andrea Pirlo to move forward, and he and Claude Makelele defended at the back. From the defense to the attack, Pirlo organized the dispatch forward.

Monaco could not penetrate the attack, so they began to frequently try to threaten their opponents with long-range shots. At the same time, they hope to lure Millwall's defence out.

This point is foreseen, Millwall is not afraid of the opponent's long-range shot, and his mentality is more calm, if the opponent can really rely on the two world waves to reverse, it is really Lady Luck who has become the opponent's crotch.

By the 65th minute, Tigana was about to fight for his life.

He replaced a striker, removed a defender, and the attack became simple, rough, and direct again!

As a result, the opponent's backfield was empty, and Millwall saw the move, Aldridge replaced Pirlo with Ballack, playing a back three tactics, and attacking with two wings.

In the middle of this attack, Monaco's attack began to threaten, and in front of the threat area, they used patience to organize the attack forward, and when they reached the 30 yards in front of the goal, they either had a long-range shot to see if they could get a good chance in the second attack, such as Bout's save and the striker could make a follow-up shot, or as Juventus did in the first leg against Millwall, the long-range shot was deflected off the path of someone, it was a matter of luck.

Either Monaco split the ball wide and crossed from 45 degrees, but today's cross clearly couldn't threaten Millwall's goal, and Materazzi's defence was absolutely fine.

Millwall's counter-attacks were booming and threatening, with the opposing formations starting to press forward and the midfield disjointed, giving Millwall the opportunity to break one by one.

Glen Charles dribbled down the right flank on a counter-attack, and saw that as long as the striker was in place, he could get a great chance, but Trezeguet was carried by the opposing centre-back and couldn't get the spot.

Aldridge saw the crux of the problem and replaced Trezeguet with Shevchenko, and in terms of speed, Shevchenko was faster than Trezeguet!

This substitution had an immediate effect, Shevchenko just came on the field, Glen Charles took the ball on the right side, the opponent came up and forced him from behind, this time, he did not choose to pass, but gave the foot straight ball, Shevchenko inserted into the right ribs, took the ball and rushed forward, he took the ball towards the penalty area, the Monaco defender chased back, when the ball entered the penalty area, Shevchenko's position was on the right side of the penalty area, he was not greedy to force a shot, but to cross the ball to the middle, Larsson, who had galloped up from the left in the counter-attack, arrived on a horse.

Barthez abandoned the goal, Larsson made a gesture to hit the goal, Barthez was deceived by the center of gravity, Larsson faked the real shot, slipped the ball diagonally to the side, shook the goalkeeper behind the empty goal, he easily scored!

"Larson killed the game! He calmly shook off the goalkeeper and slotted home an empty net to give Millwall a 2-0 lead at Monaco and with less than 10 minutes remaining, they will be shut out of the final unless Monaco score three goals in a row! ”

Larsson smiled at Shevchenko after the goal, and the two hugged each other, then walked together to the visiting fans' stands, one waving an arm.

The fans of the Wild Lions were thrilled in the stands, each blushing and waving their arms at Larsson, as if they had been injected with hormones.

Aldrich turned and hugged Jenson.

2:0

2:0

We're definitely going to Amsterdam and we're definitely going to be on the top of the continental club competition!

This goal completely deprived Monaco of their fighting spirit, and it was not impossible to score three goals in less than ten minutes, but the hope was very slim, especially if they continued to play like this, they might not be able to stop Millwall's next wave of counter-attacks.

Millwall pulled it off and two minutes later, Aldridge replaced Larsson with Gattuso to tighten up the defence more thoroughly.

In the latter part of the game, Monaco's attack was a little weaker, and after failing to pay off, Millwall burned up the last time. (To be continued......)
