021 Red Card! Cunning guy!

Larsson's debut at Millwall was undoubtedly spectacular!

After scoring the second goal, the whole stadium was boiling at the Lion's Den Stadium, and they applauded Larsson, and the fans rushed down from the nearest stands on the side of the stadium, as if they wanted to rush onto the field to bury Larsson, who was celebrating on the sidelines, into a sea of people, but fortunately there was a wall in the middle to block them.

In the midst of cheers, Aldrich turned to the joyful Jensen and said, "See? ”

Jenson smiled excitedly, "Of course! He's simply unbeatable, and his ability to take chances is too strong! ”

Aldridge grinned brightly, then turned to clapped into the arena before beckoning the lads to keep up the good work.

In the first round of the league, the game was only 60 minutes, but Millwall was already leading 3-0, and the players on the field were very encouraged, and at the same time, looking at Aldridge calmly on the sidelines, their eyes all changed.

The different tactics of the two halves worked!

That's convincing enough.

Peter Dawson was deflated at the moment, having conceded three goals and with less than thirty minutes to go, he knew his team was out of chances.

He waved his hand to make the team recover a bit, maintain the balance of attack and defence, and avoid more counter-attacks and conceded goals.

Peter was still a little unconvinced, two of the three goals conceded were counter-attacked, and one was a set-piece.

At this time, Peter also saw that Millwall's two forwards were not ordinarily fast, at least to complete the slow turning of Allianz's central defenders, giving them space to start and sprinting distance, which was equivalent to giving the opponent a single ball.

This is only the first round of the league game, and Peter is afraid that the team will be defeated by conceding another goal, which will cast a shadow over the whole season.

At this time, he comforted himself in his heart: losing is just losing 3 points, it's not a big deal.

If you lose the game and lose the morale and morale, then this season is really not easy.

With three balls in hand, the opponent's offensive weakened, and Aldrich's tense nerves finally relaxed.

He looked at the time, it was 70 minutes, and he turned back to the bench and shouted, "Patrick, five minutes to warm up." ”

The young players on the bench looked at Vieira in unison, only to see the tall Vieira immediately put on his vest and ran out of the stadium to warm up, while the other players were slightly disappointed.

The next five minutes of the game were uneventful, and after Vieira warmed up, Aldridge had already requested a substitution, and then called Vieira in front of him before he came out, stroked his shoulder and whispered: "In the first 75 minutes of the game, did you see how Pavel played?" ”

Vieira nodded, and after he arrived at Millwall, Aldridge had a training plan for him.

Positionally, Vieira and Makelele are in conflict, but in terms of area of activity, Makelele is more vertical, that is, sweeping in the middle and back, while Vieira is more lateral, he has the ability to organise attacks forward, but this is all for the mature Vieira.

Seeing him nod, Aldridge continued: "You tell Pavel to come on the pitch and let him burst forward and move in the forward midfield area, and you take his place, understand?" In your position, do you remember the point of the ball when attacking? ”

Vieira nodded again, then moved his body and jumped on the spot before a boundary kick was called out and the assistant referee made a substitution.

David Trezeguet, who made his debut for Millwall at a young age, was substituted.

He did well today, and although he didn't have many touches on the ball, he deserved credit for his long-range shot and movement, as well as a goal.

So, when he came off the pitch, the Millwall fans applauded him to heart's content, Aldridge greeted him from the sidelines, and then pointed to Trezeguet in the stands, and the meaning was obvious: this is our hero!

Trezeguet looked flattered and embarrassed to walk back to the bench and high-five every teammate in celebration.

Aldridge had just been building momentum for Trezeguet to win more support, but just as he turned around, a whistle sounded on the field, and Aldridge watched in disbelief as the referee pulled out a red card, and the object of the red card caught Aldridge off guard.

The player who was shown the red card looked aggrieved and innocent, and kept explaining something to the referee, and at his feet, a player from Xiu Alliant fell to the ground and covered his leg and groaned in pain.

Aldridge looked at the player who had been shown a red card in amazement.

It was the player he had just changed for less than a minute: Patrick Vieira!

Aldridge really found that the manager's view from the sidelines may be more comprehensive than the perspective of the TV broadcast, but the highlights may not be fully visible.

What's going on?

Before he could ask Jenson, Peter was about to rush in anger when he was stopped by the fourth official.

"What are your players doing? What the do you want to do? Murder? Grass! ”

Aldridge turned a deaf ear, and only after he spoke to Jenson did he understand what had happened.

After Vieira came on the field, Xiu Anlian kicked the boundary ball, and then hit the wall on the side of Vieira, Vieira was probably nervous, or afraid that this performance would be too bad, in order not to let the opponent get close to the penalty area, he directly put the tackle, not only did not shovel the ball, but also kicked on the leg of Xiu Anlian's player with the ball, but he was not a malicious foul, so Xiu Anlian's player injury was not serious.

By the time Aldridge came to his senses, Vieira had come to the sidelines with the comfort of captain Southgate, he looked aggrieved and annoyed, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at anyone, obviously his mood fell to the bottom.

Aldridge greeted him down and whispered to him: "Patrick, don't worry, you are still young, no one is born perfect, it is normal to make mistakes, this is what you have to go through to become a top star, don't be discouraged, otherwise you will be looked down upon." ”

Vieira looked up at Aldridge with a complicated expression, but did not see any accusatory expression on Aldridge's face, and his tone was not a lesson, but gave him a smile.

He was in a slightly better mood, nodded and walked into the players' tunnel.

Aldridge returned to the sidelines and looked at the field first, and without any mention from him, Nedved returned to his original midfield position.

With a three-goal lead, Aldridge wanted Nedved to unleash some talent for attacking forward, but now with one man less, everything is back to square one.

Without a superfluous reminder of his own, Aldridge turned around and beckoned to Babu in the dugout.

Babu roughly guessed why Aldrich called him, and walked over and asked, "Patrick?" ”

Aldridge nodded and said to him: "You go and comfort him, don't let him down, don't let him give up the idea of playing in midfield, blame me for this, I am in a hurry to develop him." ”

Babu was in charge of Vieira's training in the first team, and he solemnly agreed, then turned around and walked into the players' tunnel to find Vieira.

Aldridge was not angry at Vieira's red card for a foul, but he blamed himself a little.

This is a very young team, but he is still helping the seedlings, which is really a stupid low-level mistake.

Originally, there were 11 starters on the field, except for 17-year-old Lucas Neal, who played in the youth team and reserve team last year to gain experience, the other players have professional game experience, even Trezeguet, who is under 18 years old, also has a year or two of league experience in Argentina.

But Vieira only entered the first team of AS Cannes last year, and the position is not a defensive midfielder, came to Millwall, in a new position, learn new defensive skills, develop defensive awareness, etc., in fact, he is just a blank slate, Aldridge rashly pushed him into the League One, and it is understandable that he fouled and left the field.

Thinking that there are Ballack, Gattuso and other players with no professional league experience in the team, Aldridge knows in his heart that after this game, he may have to reformulate a season plan to make these young players grow more carefully and prudently.

Perhaps it was Millwall who was sent off, and the rest of the game went on a heavy attack.

With such a development of the situation, Aldrich also understands that it is impossible to justify fighting one more person who is still half dead.

However, before the end of the game, Millwall's defensive system was still stable and did not concede a goal, Xiu Anlian did not have a player with particularly good individual skills, and relied on the overall attack but also seemed to be lacking in goal, as a result, towards the end of the game, their goal was lost again.

Pire met the ball with a right-footed volley from outside the box from outside the box from Larsson's return pass, and the ball drilled into the top right corner of the Xiu'an United goal like a cannonball.

4:0.

In the first round of the 94/95 English First Division, Millwall scored four goals cleanly.

Aldridge didn't shake hands with Peter after the game, and neither of them meant that, and both managers quickly disappeared from the sidelines.

In an interview after the mixed zone, Aldridge made no mention of the pre-match clash with Peter, and in the face of a big win, he only made a low statement that the players played surprisingly well, and the opponent Xiu Anlian is a very tenacious team

Aldridge has little praise for his team, but he has nothing to say about Xiu Anlian.

It wasn't until he left that the reporters realized that this was actually a disguised praise for their team.

Lift your opponent to the sky and lose by four goals to your own team!

Aldrich, cunning fellow!

PS: Thanks for the tip!
