921 is the second-to-last worst
Millwall vs Liverpool ended the first half with the score 1:0.
In the fierce battle back and forth throughout the game, Millwall took the lead with the advantage of hard power, and it was an unexpected figure who contributed to the team: De Rossi.
He ran up front in an attack, went up for the first time, caught a long-range opportunity, and the ball was deflected into the Liverpool goal, which surprised and showed the outside world why Aldridge chose to trust De Rossi.
De Rossi plus Alonso's combination, the defensive hardness will obviously exceed Gattuso and Pirlo, and in terms of mobility, this young combination also has more advantages, that is to say, in the past, due to Pirlo's defensive weakness, Gattuso had to defend himself behind Pirlo, and now De Rossi and Alonso, there is one more change, that is, Alonso continues to stay behind, and De Rossi unexpectedly stepped forward to participate in the attack, although it is not common, but this is always a strange move and change in the situation of a stalemate.
Don't look at this change, it's actually small, but on the basis of Millwall's rich offensive means, adding another one will make the team's offensive system more unpredictable and the opponent can't defend against it.
And this will be one of the reform measures that Aldridge will focus on next season, strengthening the versatility of the midfield!
Liverpool heard very bad news again at half-time.
Newcastle United lead West Brom on the road.
Chelsea lead Birmingham City at home.
In points, they are 3 points behind the two contenders, fate. It seems that it is no longer in their own hands.
Because even if they achieved a comeback at the Lion King Stadium. If Chelsea win. Liverpool still can't finish fourth.
Millwall also received bad news from Goodison Park at half-time: Manchester United led Everton 1-0 away.
Aldridge once again stressed the significance of the game in the dressing room.
Forget about league titles.
Fight for the fans.
Millwall and Liverpool, who were on the same path, slowed the tempo in the second half.
In the 58th minute, when Henry and Larsson scored in the penalty area after two consecutive one-twos, the Lion King Stadium fell into a frenzy.
Because at the same time, in another game, Everton equalized at home!
"Wow! Manchester United's match with Everton is now 1-1, and Millwall leads Liverpool 2-0! Oh my God, in the standings. Millwall is back at the top! If both games are over now, Millwall will lift the league trophy! ”
Aldridge stood up from the dugout, walked to the sidelines, and motioned to the players.
Stabilize the morale of the army, don't think about the league championship?
I have to say that Aldridge, who has always been in a calm state of mind, and really no longer has expectations for this season's league championship, can't calm down at this moment.
Everton, Moyes, fuck me!
Swing the bus, cut down tactics. Lying on the grass tactics!
In short, Everton did snipe Manchester United. Aldridge made up his mind to be good friends with Moyes for life, and in the future, Millwall would be half sold and half given to him!
The storm at Goodison Park has changed.
Moyes, who had nothing to do with himself, was also stunned by Manchester United's stance.
How can he be qualified to participate in the game of a wealthy family?
Who wins the championship between Manchester United and Millwall, it's his business, if he really makes up his mind to help Millwall defend the title, he's too a boss to be a, isn't this completely labeled as "Aldridge's little brother"?
However, I don't want to lose to Manchester United, it's true.
So after the equaliser, Moyes was conservative and wanted to steal Manchester United's counter-attack.
But the old man Ferguson risked his life.
Play all the offensive cards in your hand before the game is less than 70 minutes!
Moyes is a little tender after all, and he has never seen a real big scene, he took over Everton halfway last season, before he worked hard in the lower leagues, and when he arrived at the top stage of the Premier League, he encountered the desperate attack of the first-class European team, and he was instigated at that time.
If the other party attacks, then I will defend it.
If the opponent changes the offensive player, then I will change the defensive player.
As a result, Everton's counterattack was completely out of threat and hit Manchester United's hands.
Wealth is the first line, and you can win in danger!
Manchester United attacked, Everton strengthened the defense is inevitable, but the bottom line must be to keep the counterattack chess pieces, Moyes's stinky move, so that Manchester United even if the backfield is empty, the light commander Ferdinand alone is basically at ease, just attack.
Moyes was horrified by this kind of tragic fight, especially when he saw his fellow countryman Alex Ferguson on the sidelines like a furry wildcat, well, a tiger in momentum.
No one knows that at this moment, for Alex Ferguson, it could be a fork in the road not only in the fortunes of Manchester United this season, but also in his own coaching career.
For him, if he loses the league title again this season, he may really retire and can't afford to lose people!
Aldridge played 5 games on his return, and snatched the league title from Manchester United, with a 4-point lead, which is simply an extremely loud slap in the face!
Since reaching the top of the Premier League in the 95-96 season, Manchester United has been runners-up in the league for five consecutive times in 97, 98, 99, 2000, 01, including Arsenal won the title once, Millwall won the title four times, last season, Manchester United had a fatal problem at the back, slipped fourth in the league, and the league title was Millwall's.
In domestic cup competitions, Millwall have won many more titles than Manchester United, and last season's Champions League final met Manchester United also lost to Millwall.
Over the years, Ferguson has lost against Aldridge.
If we still lose to Aldridge this season, this is not only unacceptable to Manchester United from top to bottom, but also unacceptable to Ferguson himself.
The young marshal just came back to lead the team to play 5 league games, and then took the league championship, what face does Ferguson have to fight with the young marshal again? The outside world will never see the two as rivals from now on.
So the final result of this game. The league champion will be decided. It will also be decided whether Ferguson's coaching career will continue.
79th minute. Manchester United continued to cause chaos in the Everton penalty area, and when Paul Scholes stabbed the ball into the Everton goal with a stab in the crowd, all the rage that Ferguson displayed was gone.
He, as if he had become an innocent child, raised his fists and laughed happily, and jumped twice on the spot
Moyes was expressionless and unmoved, and he may not have fully appreciated Ferguson on the sidelines. Manchester United's posture on the pitch, the kind of life and death hanging by a thread, and that is the essence of the game of giants.
For middle and lower teams, relegation is survival, entering the Champions League and winning an inconspicuous championship can be regarded as success, but for the giants, the foundation of survival is white bones under their feet.
Manchester United scored. Regained the lead over Everton.
Everton, on the other hand, now wants to fight back due to previous substitutions. There is no complete offensive system, most of the time it can only rely on luck, and Ferguson did not let the team defend, Moyes and Ferguson are naturally not comparable in coaching ability, Ferguson knows very well that if Manchester United retreats, it will give Everton the possibility of "luck", because Manchester United lacks real defensive players, then, attacking instead of defending is the most basic common sense, Manchester United controls the situation and does not retreat, making Everton desperate.
The FA was relieved.
Even though the FA and Aldridge are still in their honeymoon period, but in the final game of the Premier League, the real championship trophy must be at Goodison Park, and the main guests of the awards must be here, even if Millwall wins, the award ceremony on Millwall's side will be much shabby.
Thanks to Arsenal's collapse in Highbury in the last round, they would have had to worry the FA for the title today, first of all, they have to prepare for three trophies
What you say in words and how you do it in reality are completely different things.
Aldridge told the team to fight for the fans and not think about the league title.
But when United were equalised, he looked forward to it, and when United took the lead again, he inevitably felt a little disappointed.
At the Lion King Stadium, Millwall's players were also a little demoralized after Manchester United regained the lead, and although it was not obvious, it was clear that the players' attention to the game began to decline.
1:0 is not safe, 2:0 will make people feel comfortable.
In such circumstances, Liverpool pulled a goal back in the 85th minute, which stemmed from Ashley Cole's aggressiveness in defence and Ronaldo's constant habit of being beaten by the coach from time to time: it didn't make an impact on the defence.
After Owen scored a goal, Liverpool did not have the determination to launch a Jedi counterattack and then turn it back, while Millwall, for their part, regained their spirits after Aldridge returned to the club to direct the game for the first time.
In the time since, the team has not given Liverpool another chance, and the attacking side has not created a great chance.
The match ended first at the Lion King Stadium with Millwall beating Liverpool 2-1.
Manchester United, on the other hand, had long stoppage time due to frequent substitutions in the second half.
At the end of the game, the whole Millwall team looked at the Premier League trophy on the sidelines, it was not the real thing, but if it could win the championship, it didn't matter if it was real or not.
They are still waiting, like many of the Lions fans in the stands who have begun to pray, hoping that Everton can hold Manchester United to a final draw.
Aldridge walked into the stadium as soon as possible and applauded the crowd in the stands, as if he didn't care what the outcome was on United's side.
The message to the outside world is: Millwall doesn't ask for anyone else!
This season is not a season that Millwall should be proud of, it is perhaps a season that many players and fans do not want to remember in the future, and it must be admitted that they did not come up with an absolute championship level, and that is the reason for the defeat, the reason for not being able to defend the title, not why United are able to lead Everton again.
Aldridge hugged every player on the pitch and walked to each side of the stands to greet the fans.
With his actions, more and more Lions fans didn't care about the situation on Manchester United's side, and stood up to applaud, and the flag of the Lions always fluttered in the stands, facing the wind.
"The game at Goodison Park is over, Manchester United beat Everton 2-1 away to regain the Premier League title since '96! Defending champions Millwall failed to perform a big miracle in the final moments, however, after Sir Hall returned to the club, the league record of five consecutive wins all the way to the top of the table, so that Manchester United and Arsenal felt a lot of pressure, Arsenal collapsed, Manchester United gritted their teeth and persevered to the end, withstood the pressure to win the crown in one fell swoop, for Millwall, this may be a losing season, but they still continue their tradition, which was talked about by Millwall fans many years ago. What Najib, the soul of the club's academy, said to every Millwall young player: Millwall symbolizes victory, symbolizes championships, and from 95 years onwards, Millwall's worst result in the top league is the third place! This season, this is not Millwall's worst result in the league, just the second-to-last worst, runners-up. There is also a League Cup final, Millwall will complete all the games this season, we have reason to look forward to next season's Millwall, expect Sir Hall to lead the new Millwall to regain lost ground, in the Premier League, on the peak stage of Europe, the Champions League!
