When Cristiano Ronaldo sent the ball into Arsenal's door in the 71st minute, Aldridge didn't celebrate, and the live camera locked on him and caught him holding Gattuso and telling something.

Arsene Wenger frowned, a little puzzled why Millwall was able to get the attack done this time.

The speed of the deadly counterattack, what a fast!

Kaka, Ramour, Ronaldo, almost no time to adjust to the Arsenal defense, Ronaldo's running is a classic, and how did this running space come out?

Defenders to take lightly? Or was it unprepared for such a fight at Millwall?

Yes, in the first 70 minutes, Millwall rarely had this kind of offensive cooperation, playing a steady word, and after the substitution, the attack pursued danger!

Kaka, Ronaldo, the comprehensive ability is not as good as Klose and Villa, whether it is experience, or the comprehensive ability of the striker.

But Aldridge does not ask Ronaldo to be the fulcrum of Klose, does not require Ronaldo to be like Villa in the local strategy, Kaka is to replace a striker, but his position on the field is not to play forward, let alone talk about it, Aldridge wants them to play the speed advantage, if the opening game is like this, Arsenal will definitely consume them to death, so that they wear out their physical strength in the futile run again and again, the so-called good steel is used on the blade, this is Aldridge's tactical conspiracy in this game, The first 60 minutes were spent creating the most suitable environment for the introduction of Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo.

'Millwall quickly used up their last substitution after the goal and it seemed that Hall was unusually decisive and brought on Gattuso for Ramour, which was a signal to strengthen the defence again. Millwall just don't let Arsenal score. Then they will lift their sixth trophy of the season! ”

The energetic Gattuso pointed at Alonso as soon as he came on the pitch. Signal to let the opponent position premise, play a central midfielder, and hand over the midfield position to Gattuso!

There is no doubt that whether it is the compression of the defensive space of the formation or the defensive ability of the combination of personnel, Millwall's defensive hardness has reached a new level.

Arsene Wenger was anxious on the sidelines, and he had nothing to say about Aldridge's substitution, and he had only one main player in the first place. Now that there is one more, it is normal to play conservatively, and there is a Champions League final in three days!

After all three substitutions were used, Arsenal fought back aggressively, but the effect in positional battles was even less satisfactory, they did not have a classic No.10 player, and they lacked the overall organization of positional battles.

Seeing that Arsenal's attack advanced past half-time like headless flies not knowing how to develop, the commentators gave their opinions.

'It's a cliché that Arsenal still need to improve their positional ability in high-level confrontations, and they are very dangerous on the flanks. Maybe the counter-attacking ability is only behind Millwall, and better than Manchester United. But in the positional battle, their ability is not as good as Manchester United and Millwall, even if the traditional wings like Manchester United fly together, pass, run, cut, shoot, and score, so that Manchester United is very familiar with the routine, they are lacking, once the opponent compresses the attacking space, Arsenal's attack begins to become messy. ”

"Yes, Andy, from the field, we can clearly see that Millwall's offensive rhythm before and after the substitution has changed significantly, and the forward impact of the attacking players is more determined, which must be Holtonguò substitution adjustment, there is a deployment before the game, on the contrary, Arsenal's shortcoming is that Wenger rarely changes in the game, unless the shape is very bad, such as at the end of the game they are still behind, or the weak team is still a draw, Arsene Wenger's Arsenal is a team with a steady and clear tactical thinking, but in specific games, there are no secrets to the on-the-spot adaptation and even pre-match preparations, Arsenal's style has not changed, and the team's rhythm has rarely changed, 90 minutes, from the first minute to the last minute, it seems that they want to be determined to win from beginning to end, but the reality will not be so easy. ”

"Over the years, Arsenal's European table has not been good, and the biggest reason for being criticized is here, Arsenal is a strong team in Europe, but they don't have any back, personnel, tactics, all aspects, clearly presented in front of the opponent's eyes, and when the opponent analyzes them thoroughly and limits them in place, Arsenal will encounter difficulties, we don't think it's strange at all, and this game, if Millwall can win in the end, then Hall beat Wenger again is obviously won at the level of on-the-spot command and tactical arrangement."

With almost 80 minutes to go, Arsene Wenger had to fight.

He removed Parlour and brought on Wiltord to add a striker on the offensive end.

Aldridge stood on the sidelines and kept shouting at Ronaldo, gesturing at him, signaling him not to be at the forefront of the front line, to go back more to respond, and to pull the side appropriately!

Millwall's counter-attack in the past few minutes has not been effective, the reason is that Ronaldo has been staying in the front line since the goal, and it is estimated that this kid wants to take another running opportunity like the one just now, and then make a final decision.

Cristiano Ronaldo found that he couldn't get a chance recently, so he listened to Aldrich's words and ran back to respond appropriately, waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.

In the 83rd minute, Baines received Gareth Southgate's well-defended header on this side, and he passed the ball straight to Cristiano Ronaldo on the flank.

Ronaldo stopped the ball and turned around, and began to sprint along the wing, Arsenal just played an attack, and the backfield was not particularly empty at this time, except for the assist of Silvinho on the other side, he still had a back three plus Vieira.

Cristiano Ronaldo cut inside from 40 yards from the side, Lauren blocked him in front and Patrick Vieira moved to block him diagonally into the box.

Cristiano Ronaldo passed the ball to Kaka, and then he quickly stepped forward, Lauren and Keown kept a mark on Cristiano Ronaldo, and Vieira turned and moved to block Kaka's pass. Kaka opted to dribble and dribbled to the right, a little away from goal, where Campbell went over to defend him. ”

Kaka's space forward was already very small, so he pulled down the side, attracted Campbell and then turned the ball back to Alonso, who didn't dare to go forward and touch Vieira again, so he simply shot from 35 yards!

The long-range shot sent both Arsenal fans and Arsene Wenger into a cold sweat. Fortunately, he brushed the goalpost and went out of the bottom line.

Aldrich found out after witnessing the attack. If you rely on Ronaldo alone. With Alonso, who has an assist but can't go deep into the box, it will be very difficult to beat Arsenal again.

Arsenal suffered a loss to Cristiano Ronaldo, and it is impossible to find a good opportunity for Ronaldo to run again when the number is superior.

Do you want to gamble once?

The game may not even be 10 minutes including injury time, but Aldridge looked at Ibrahimovic's body, coupled with Wiltord, and finally Arsenal attacked again, and it is really hard to say who will die.

He gestured to Neil and De Rossi, respectively. It means that they can also go up to support in the counterattack, the two nod their heads, and the physical fitness should be no problem for them, Neil is in the prime of life, De Rossi did not attack much in the first 80 minutes of the game, the physical consumption is not strict, and the back waist line retains Pedretti and Gattuso, both of whom are players with a large range of activity and interception, whether it is to fill the position or to block when counterattacking. All have certain guarantees.

Afraid of what to come, 1 minute later. Pire's cross was met by Ibrahimovic's header, which narrowly missed Pagliuca's 10 fingers.

Aldridge breathed a sigh of relief, the scene was quite scary, if it was the main force on the field, even if he was beaten out of front of goal by Arsenal, he would not worry, because of the team's super strength in attack, but this set of substitute lineups, if the score is equalized, the next game is really difficult to say.

The speed advantage can be played once, and it may not be effective the second time, and the speed advantage is not to crush the opponent, but to hit the opponent by surprise, after the opponent sounded the alarm, just a peak Vieira, Millwall on the field, none of them can have the upper hand in a one-on-one confrontation, so to penetrate Vieira's defense, you can't rely on one-on-one, you must rely on teamwork.

As time went on, there was less and less time left for Arsenal, and Arsenal put more and more effort into attacking, and the intensity of counter-attacking in front of them also increased dramatically.

Wenger urged the players to attack, Aldridge put his hands on his waist and sank like water, Arsenal's counter-robbery is actually not tight, as long as Millwall's players are calm and don't blindly clear the ball, they will definitely be able to resolve it, and as long as they break through the opponent's counter-robbery encirclement, the front-court attack will be flat.

In the 87th minute, the straight plug in front of the Bergkamp penalty area was intercepted by Metzelde, and the most obvious improvement of Metzeld this season is that he is very stable!

He won't be as frivolous as he has been in the past two seasons, which makes his improvement very noticeable.

After the successful defence, the Arsenal frontline players immediately counter-attacked, Metzelder passed the ball to Gattuso in front, Gattuso was depressed, he was full of people on all sides, and had no choice but to kick the ball to Southgate in the back.

At the crucial moment, Southgate was still clear-headed, at least as a defender, he was often harassed by the strikers to force the ball, and he was accustomed to it, and he passed the ball out of the back line with a long diagonal pass from a long distance to clear the ball and get the ball out of the danger zone, while also instigating a counter-attack, Neil, who was pressed on the edge, stopped the ball on the right side of the midfield and then launched a fast attack forward.

When Neil passed the ball to Kaka, who ran over to pick it up, Millwall's attack directly advanced into the front field within 40 yards of the Arsenal goal, in this case, the enthusiasm of the Arsenal attacking players to return to the defense decreased a lot, because they would feel that it would be useless to run back and not be able to catch up!

In particular, their physical strength is also close to exhaustion.

Kaka attracted Vieira, he was not in a hurry to make the next move, but passed the ball back to Alonso, who came up with the assist, De Rossi also ran up, this pressure up, Millwall instead attacked the number of dominance!

Alonso first handed the ball to Ronaldo on the left side, De Rossi stepped forward, Alonso was still in the middle, Ronaldo went inside and found that both De Rossi and Alonso had been completely stared at, he chose a wide range of long passes to transfer, passed the ball to the right side, Neil assisted and did not go back, this side was a little empty, Neil took the ball to the direction of the penalty area, when Campbell moved a step, Neil obliquely behind Campbell, Kaka inserted the ball in front of him, it was already a semi-single opportunity!

Vieira came back to block the angle of Kaka's shot, Kaka calmly gave the ball back to Alonso, at this time Alonso took a step forward with the ball, broke through Arsenal's back line, only Vieira in front of him and the goalkeeper Seaman in front of him, the distance was so close, Alonso did not hesitate to volley vigorously, the ball into the left side of the goal, Seaman could not do anything, the front was basically empty, he could only look at the ball and sigh.

"The second ball! Millwall scored the second goal! A beautiful combination that completely tore apart Arsenal's defence, and Millwall sealed the win! They didn't dominate the game until the last 20 minutes to balance the situation a little, waited patiently, and then seized the few opportunities to send Arsenal into the abyss! ”

There was jubilation on the Millwall bench, and Aldridge watched Alonso being thrown to the ground by his team-mates to play Arhat, the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, and then closed his eyes and nodded slightly.

The next generation of wild lions, there are successors. (To be continued......)
