Millwall won all four of their first four group games, scoring 16 goals and conceding just three, the most of any 24 Champions League teams this season.

Manchester United, Borussia Dortmund, Real Madrid and other teams that are also unstoppable in other groups are not as popular as this Lions from London.

While it's to be expected that the traditional giants will do well, the sensation it creates is absolutely shocking for a recruit like Millwall to stand out in the Death Group.

Larsson, who is on a hot streak, has also leapt into the ranks of top stars.

In fact, every year during the transfer period, whether it is summer or winter, Millwall receives the most secret offers, the most requests for Larsson, judging from the name of the buying club, it can reflect Larsson's level rise.

Manchester United have been relentless in their pursuit of Larsson.

Outside of England, Italian first-tier clubs are also pursuing him, but in the summer of this season, names such as AC Milan, Barcelona, Inter Milan, Paris Saint-Germain and so on appeared among the clubs that were bought, and Real Madrid was added to these names after the big battle with Barcelona.

The big clubs all over Europe want Larsson, and that shows his value.

Galliani wants Larsson to wear the red and black shirt to shoulder the responsibility of Milan's revival, Moratti has the dream of Ronaldo + Larsson, two super strikers, and Sans invites Larsson to the Bernabeu to continue the fight against Barcelona

It's impossible to sell people in the winter, which would disrupt the second half of the season, and Aldridge didn't know what Larsson was thinking. But he wouldn't have talked to the players about it in the first place.

The news from Andrew's side is positive. Larsson's response to the giants' invitation was relatively muted.

The Swedish national team missed Euro 96. Seeing that the ticket to the 98th World Cup may not be available, Larsson knows that his chances of winning glory in the national team are slim, and even the opportunity to appear in international competitions is pitiful, and at the golden age of 26, he can only work harder at the club to achieve glory in order to make his achievements greater.

Millwall is a team that Aldridge has cultivated with all his heart for three and a half years, and its strength is on the rise and the future is promising. Just when it was time to make a result, Larsson had no reason to leave.

In the foggy morning, before five o'clock, Aldrich had already gotten up, put on sportswear, and put a Walkman in his pocket, planning to listen to music and go for an early morning jog to exercise.

As soon as he went out, he found that there was also movement in the neighbor's house opposite, the door was wide open, and Evan, dressed in pure white sportswear, was almost the same as Aldrich's equipment. She was putting earplugs into her ears when she saw Aldrich standing in front of her door. She walked over and smiled and asked, "Exercise?" ”

Aldrich looked her up and down, her bumpy and graceful figure was beautiful against the backdrop of sportswear, the ponytail showed youthful vitality, and the bare face added a natural beauty.

"Well, exercise. Together? ”

"Let's go."

The two jogged along the sidewalk of the neighborhood under the faint light of the canopy, ran all the way to a nearby park, chatted casually on the way, and when the morning light broke, the two ate breakfast outside, then returned to the front of the house to say goodbye and turn around, and each drove to the club to start a new day.

Although Aldrich has been hailed as the legendary young marshal of England by Fleet Street, his legend is nothing more than the age factor, and has nothing to do with achievements.

People are expecting him to stage the myth of green shade and lead the team to unprecedented glory.

But he himself is still sane and he is nothing until the honor is in hand.

As time passed, Millwall went hand in hand in league and European competitions.

In the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, at Wembley, Millwall faced Dynamo Kyiv, for Dynamo Kyiv, who was 5 points behind Millwall, a draw also meant that he was out, and even if he won, the hope of winning the group was very slim.

However, if they win two games, they will reach 12 points and hope to finish second in the top two groups and qualify for the knockout rounds.

However, at Wembley, Millwall did not give Dynamo Kyiv any chance, Aldrich faced the game with all the main force, and sent Dynamo Kyiv away with the same score, 2:0.

Millwall won all five games, reaching 15 points and qualifying for the top spot in the group.

The Dutch champions were knocked out of the tournament in the final round of the group stage at PSV Eindhoven, but it was a battle of honour and they played extremely vigorously at home, with Millwall coming on as a substitute.

Gudjohnsen, a new signing in the summer transfer, is finally available for action after six months of recuperation and recovery.

Aldridge sent him on the pitch in this match with PSV Eindhoven as he wished, and the Icelander was still haunted by being swept away by PSV Eindhoven, and in this game, Millwall played a defensive counterattack, Gudjohnsen and Ruud van Nistelrooy played as two strikers, and the scene was a wonderful game, but the score made PSV Eindhoven very depressed.

2:4.

Ruud van Nistelrooy and Gudjohnsen both scored twice, with the latter celebrating wildly at PSV Eindhoven's home stadium as if revenge had been avenged!

The Champions League group stage came to an end, Millwall won all six games and advanced to the knockout round, scoring 22 goals and conceding 5 goals at both ends of the offensive and defensive performances that shocked Europe!

In the other groups, An Fat was very depressed, and his Parma was planted on the defending champion Dortmund, who advanced strongly with 15 points, and Parma's weak forward weakness was exposed, and he was relegated to second place with only 9 points.

Manchester United beat Juventus and advanced to the knockout stage with 15 points.

It was no surprise that Real Madrid finished first in a relatively weak group.

Bayern Munich relied on a better defense to beat Paris Saint-Germain with the same points advantage by goal difference.

Tigana, who lamented their good signing at the draw three months ago, got what they wanted, and although Monaco won the group on goal difference, they were able to go straight to the knockout stage in the second place of the group even if they were at a disadvantage in goal difference.

In the sixth group runner-up, Bayer Leverkusen and Juventus secured the remaining two qualification spots.

Quarterfinals. German teams accounted for three. In addition to last season's German champions and runners-up. Borussia Dortmund have also qualified for the Champions League thanks to their status as defending champions, which has made the German side look particularly strong this year, especially as they all made it out of the group stage.

All eight teams come from the top five leagues, with all but the strongest in Germany, the Premier League champions and runners-up all reaching the quarter-finals, while the remaining three teams are champions of their respective leagues last season.

There is no doubt that although this year's Champions League has been expanded, it has come to the knockout stage. Its intensity is unimaginable, and the champions of the five major leagues bring together the quarterfinals, the Champions Cup, the Champions Cup, and a well-deserved championship stage.

December 22nd.

Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Aldridge didn't attend the feast because the Premier League is fast and he has to lead the team in training and playing.

Two of Millwall's players were furloughed for the gala, Nedved and Larsson.

When the voting results were announced, the audience applauded like thunder.

Larsson defeated the alien Ronaldo by an extremely narrow margin to become Mr. Golden Ball!

Before he took the stage to accept the award, Larson and Nedved hugged for a long time. As he hugged Nedved, Larson's eyes moistened.

Nedved congratulated him in his ear and had to urge him to come on stage to accept the award.

The first thing Larsson said after winning the Ballon d'Or was: This Ballon d'Or belongs to the entire Millwall team!

The second sentence is: If I hadn't met Coach Aldridge Hall. I'm definitely not going to stand here

In the final vote for this year's Ballon d'Or, striker Mijatovic from last season's La Liga winning team came in third, Juventus' Zinedine Zidane in fourth place, Nedved in fifth place, and Bergkamp in fifth place.

In the southeast of London, in the radiating neighborhood of Millwall, all the fans were thrilled at the moment when the Ballon d'Or was announced.

We've got Mr. Golden Balls in Millwall!

This will make Millwall's popularity even more significant, and Aldrich's fame will skyrocket.

Young marshal, a Mr. Golden Globe has been trained!

This is even more exciting for the Millwall players.

The young players aspire to reach the pinnacle of Larsson's reach!

This year's Christmas game, Manchester United and Millwall fans are blessed.

The two teams will face each other in Group 1 at Old Trafford.

Millwall have been able to devote more energy to the league since beating Barcelona in the fourth round of the Champions League.

They have been in good form in the last few games, drawing just one and winning all of them, while the Carabao Cup quarter-finals saw the youngsters win from League One side Manchester City and they face two Carabao Cup semi-finals against Middlesbrough in January.

Heading into Old Trafford, Aldridge is missing Nedved and Larsson in his squad and has a week's break.

Christmas is here, and it's time to test the team again.

At Old Trafford, Ferguson took the initiative to shake Aldridge's hand before the game and said calmly: "Congratulations, you have produced a Golden Ball man, this achievement is very remarkable, it seems that Manchester United will not have a chance to get Larsson." ”

Aldridge shook his head and said: "There is also some luck, last season's Champions League champion was Dortmund, Summerr won the Ballon d'Or last year, this year the judges will no longer favor defensive players, Ronaldo went to Inter Milan again, there is no Champions League to play, Larsson happened to be very eye-catching last month, so his impression score has increased a lot, if not, the Ballon d'Or will definitely be Ronaldo's." ”

"What do you want to do with this? Your player won the Ballon d'Or, and you're just happy. ”

Aldrich lowered his head and smiled slightly, then nodded: "Yes, it's right to be happy, don't think about other things." ”

"It's me and you who are competing for the championship this year, are you confident that you will succeed in defending your title?"

"What do you say?"

"Hehe, a drink after the game?"

"Is the 82 Raffi ready?"

"It's been in my thermostat for a long time."

Ferguson spoke to Aldridge and then separated, then Ferguson sat in the dugout while Aldridge stood on the sidelines.

Players from both sides entered in an orderly manner.

Aldridge asked Lampard to replace Nedved's position today, Ballack seems to have finished all his form at the beginning of the season, and he has not recovered in the past month, and his performance has been up and down.

After recovering his health, Gudjohnsen replaced Larsson, and the Icelander had no problem with his strength, having played for PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League more than two years ago.

Manchester United have been a bit too strong lately.

Millwall remained unbeaten and only drew one, but Manchester United won them all, and they all won by a large score, not winning by 3 or 4 opponents, as if they were sorry for the name of the Red Devils.

This widened the gap between the two teams to three points.

Today's game is undoubtedly a six-point battle.

The Premier League half-way winner will be decided! (To be continued......)
