"Leeds equalised before the end of the first half! It's crucial for Leeds United, and if you're down at half-time, it's really hard to play in the second half! Pagliuca blocked Cahill's long-range shot, but could not stop Colwill's follow-up shot, Colwill really dared to shoot, almost zero angle volley, sent the ball into the top corner of the goal, but because Pagliuca fell to the ground after the save, the difficulty of the ball was only to get the angle, without having to beat the goalkeeper's defense. ”

Colwill's goal sent a crowd through the stands, with O'Reilly almost rushing into the stadium to celebrate.

Aldridge's expression was as usual, and his mind recalled the whole Leeds United's attacking routine.

In fact, it is nothing to say how strong Millwall's defense is, after all, this team does not dominate Europe with a desperate defense, but on the contrary, is known for attack.

After all, the balance between offense and defense is the golden mean, which seems to be ever-changing, but in the end, it is just that both offensive and defensive ends cannot evolve to the extreme.

Aldridge has also used a balanced offensive and defensive tactical play, 442 is a typical example, can gain a foothold in the top arena, but it is difficult to play the peak dominance, so he advocates 433, which not only gorgeously caters to the football market, but also conforms to the general trend of football advocating offensive.

Attacking and defending, Millwall is to suppress the opponent with offense, forcing the opponent to invest more troops on the defensive end, thus weakening the attack, but it would be unrealistic to say that the opponent is not given a chance in the whole game, especially the strong team.

The effect of such offensive suppression is clear at a glance, the opponent does have offensive opportunities, but the offensive means become single. Because in the fleeting offensive opportunities, the opponent has a small number of attackers. You can only concentrate a little bit, unlike Millwall's pressing attack, which is varied.

Aldridge glanced at the excited O'Reilly, this goal made Aldridge understand that O'Reilly must have worked hard to prepare for this game.

The first thing is to find out Millwall's defensive routine.

Millwall, who takes high pressure pressing, has four principles at the core of the defense, first, delay. Harassing the opponent from the front line and blocking the opponent's organization of the attack during the transition between attack and defense can play the best effect in the match against Valencia, where the opponent's counter-attacking threat is maximized in 18o minutes, and secondly, balanced, with the first harassment of the striker players. The other offensive players quickly return to their positions, return to the area they should be responsible for defending, and third, concentrate, and after the defense returns to their positions, they will play a reasonable defensive position or press frantically, in an orderly manner. Fourth, control, this last link is that when the opponent's attack advances to the danger zone, the defender must be calm and do a good job of marking defense. Layeredly force the opponent away from the danger zone.

These four principles are at the heart of Millwall's defensive tactics and have been instilled in the players over the years.

The first three points are interlinked. Delay, balance, concentration, any link problems, will lead the defense flawed, jump directly to the last point, control, that is, let the opponent's attack advance to the danger zone in front of the penalty area, the last gate of defense.

Under normal circumstances, after the opponent successfully defends, the offensive ball is forward, from the back line to the midfield line to the forward line, how to pass and run, the team's style of play is different, but the ball is always from the back to the front, even if it is adjusted, it is also a short-distance transfer.

Millwall's defensive strategy is designed on this basis, the striker harasses the back line to get the ball, and when passing to the midfield line, it will fall into the Millwall defensive tactics that come to the balance stage, the midfield breaks the ball, and the success rate of counter-robbery is relatively high, and then forms a direct replay of the second attack.

After studying this set thoroughly, O'Reilly made changes in the attack, using a cover for it.

When switching from defense to attack, the defender line passes the ball to the midfielder in a short distance, the midfielder takes the initiative to take the ball but does not stop the ball, does not give Millwall the opportunity to counterattack, and quickly passes the ball to the fullback, which seems to be the backfield inverted, turning back and passing, but it hits the balance and delay in Millwall's defensive strategy, the striker who does the delay task sees the ball out of the back line, he retreats, and the opposing fullback is released, and the midfielder does not organize the attack, only responds and then passes back to the fullback, so that the fullback moves a long pass to attack, The key playmaking point is the two full-backs of Kelly and Hart.

They play the ball at the back, they don't dare to play in the middle, the traditional British long pass, the distance, fighting the striker and the defender to grab the landing point, it is too old-fashioned.

O'Reilly can make Viduka a center forward pull the side as a fulcrum, not to mention ingenious, but really threatening, causing Millwall's marking confusion, local defense at a disadvantage, and penetrating the wing.

Leeds United's attack has limitations, they can't fully spread out the attacking point, they can only concentrate on playing partial, the routine is single, can be suddenly played, one hit will kill, it can be seen that the team has been carefully rehearsed in training.

Previously, Kelly and Hart played the ball at the back and caused their teammates to fall into a state of isolation, Aldridge only felt that the opponent was kicking nonsense, and now it seems that Leeds United should have been too nervous and conservative before conceding the goal, and O'Reilly's excitement and anger came from this.

Aldridge didn't give any instructions to the team, the first half was over immediately, and the 1-1 score had no psychological impact on the Millwall team, and the away goals were equal to two, and they still had the lead.

As for the back line being penetrated, Aldridge does not blame the defenders, the defense on the football field is passive, the offense is active, the offensive initiative evolves unpredictable changes, and the defense can change from static to dynamic to take the initiative, even in Italy, which is a defensive-minded country, the AC Milan defense line with top defenders such as Kaladze, Maldini, and Nesta in the original history, adds up to at least 30 goals in all competitions in a season, not a problem of player ability, but the possibility of offensive evolution, The variable factors on the football field are by no means controllable by manpower.

If you really want to pursue the ultimate defense, then Millwall's tactical system will have to change fundamentally, and Aldridge can learn from Mourinho's style, setting up the same 433 but the tactical system is mainly defensive, with two midfielders and central midfielders. The kind that holds a strong shield and waits for the opponent to attack first, and uses the shield to resist. When the opponent's attack shows a flaw, the other hand stabs out from the side of the shield with a sword and kills the opponent, which is the transformation of the England national team.

The football field is the same, and Aldridge doesn't think he pursues his own style more, but with the current Millwall team, he has withdrawn to play the ultimate counter-attack. I'm afraid a lot of players are not happy.

At half-time, the players from both sides walked into the tunnel, Leeds United players encouraged each other to fight for a comeback in the second half, and the Millwall players looked a little calm, the score was a draw, but they actually took the lead. This is only 18o minutes of 45 minutes, and the longer it is for the top teams, the more confidence they have to win.

Give me 45 minutes, I'm strong.

Give me 9o minutes and I'm stronger.

Give me 18o minutes. I will win!

Back in the dressing room, Aldridge pulled out the tactical board and made targeted adjustments to Leeds' attack, but there was nothing to say about the attack, and the time dragged on. Leeds United can't hold back, and the quality of the overall attack and defense will decline. The strong team's steady swing within 9o minutes is also one of the characteristics of why it is strong.

Rushing to rush the offense may instead be self-destructing the Great Wall, knockout, limiting the opponent is always the first place, and fighting to score one more than the opponent will suffer a big loss sooner or later.

In the second half, when the two sides returned to the field, O'Reilly saw Aldridge standing indifferently in front of the coach's box, and said in his heart that it was fake not to admire.

Once the sea was difficult to water, in the position of head coach, Aldridge has experienced many more winds and waves than him, this is only the Champions League semi-finals, if it is not a rout, otherwise don't think Aldridge has become out of shape.

And O'Reilly's own heartbeat has been fast, he wants to calm himself down, but he can't, no matter who attacks and defends on the field, he is nervous.

Aldridge has also been excited, nervous, that is like riding a roller coaster ups and downs are actually very exciting, if adrenaline addiction, it is equivalent to the addict gets the comfort of drugs, but he has also learned the lesson of failure, insight into the shape of the field, timely substitutions, accurate tactical adjustments, which require a calm mind to make the most correct decision, if you can't calm down, then you can really only rely on the players themselves to wave a flash of inspiration, flash, great fortune, flash, flash, can only accept fate.

The second half of the game lasted only 1o minutes, and O'Reilly's heart was completely upset.

Millwall have clearly undergone tactical changes in midfield.

Especially defensive adjustments.

In terms of delaying this link, Henry will still harass between the defender and the midfielder, but Ronaldo and Larsson are staring at the two full-backs Kelly and Hart, and at the same time, Millwall's double back, Southgate changed to drag, Leeds United, even if the attack advances to the wing, and then to the middle, Materazzi can not see that large area, Southgate can also intercept in time.

O'Reilly glanced incredulously at Aldrich, who was in his hands in his pockets and looked indifferent.

How long has it been?

Millwall's goal came just before the end of the first half, and in the space of a few minutes, Aldridge not only adjusted his defensive tactics but also allowed his players to execute them effectively on the pitch.

That was O'Reilly's killer idea that took half a month to study and think about countermeasures, and then to tactical drills!

O'Reilly felt like he had struck a blow on a towering mountain, hard to shake.

It's not that he didn't think Millwall would adjust, but he luckily thought that Aldridge would only strengthen the defense at the back, increase the input of defensive personnel, and then weaken the offensive investment, so that Leeds United would have other attacking points to release, which can be described as a wonderful move, and the game is full of life.

But Aldridge's adjustment to the back is only a slight change, Southgate's little liberation is enough to limit the Leeds United threat, the most important thing is to provide Leeds United with the source of offensive changes, the two attacking fullbacks, both offensive and defensive, were suppressed by Ronaldo and Larsson, which disintegrated O'Reilly's tactical setup from the root!

The Leeds United players, who cheered each other on at half-time, were in a state of agitation.

The manager's established tactics are no longer threatening, the full-backs are not good at interfering with the drop point, and even Hart was once directly tackled by Larsson, if it wasn't for Henry's outflanking in front of the goal and hitting the ball on goalkeeper Martin, Leeds United may have conceded another goal.

They couldn't help but look at the coach O'Reilly on the sidelines, wanting to see if the manager had any tactical adjustments, and it was not a way to continue playing like this.

At home, you have to win!

If you don't win, go to the Lion King Stadium, the momentum is not at the same level at all, don't say that the other party has the advantage of waiting for work and field conditions.

However, the Leeds United players saw O'Reilly frowning and bowing his head, as if he was trying to figure out a way

This picture is too damaging to the confidence of the players.

At least, the manager now looks helpless and can't help the team!
