At half-time, the mood in Millwall's dressing room was slightly subdued.
This is probably the first half of the most stressful first half that these substitutes have ever experienced, unlike those games that have been lost, they have lost before, they will be frustrated and lost, but they will not feel depressed, because there will be a subconscious in growth, but this season, although they are still growing and improving, but it is also time to prove themselves, it is difficult to take on a big responsibility, can not withstand the pressure, it is estimated that they will enter the turning point of their careers, the so-called dragon is a worm, it is impossible to draw conclusions very early, and at this stage, the next one or two seasons, It's time to decide.
Because of this, they were extremely serious and worked hard in the final against Arsenal, but they were still dominated by their opponents, which was the root cause of their psychological pressure.
"In the first half, you guys were okay, I don't comment on my personal performances, but I want to tell you that we have laid the foundation for winning and you have done a good job."
Aldridge's understatement reinvigorated the players, reminding them of the coaching staff's request at the pre-match preparation meeting, the first of which was not to concede a goal in the first half.
And they did!
One of the set goals was accomplished.
When I think about it this way, my mood is much better.
Because they have a lot of trust in Aldridge, as long as they complete the tasks asked by the manager, they are excellent and can achieve their ambitions for the result of the game!
Aldridge focused on defending in the second half, making limited compensations based on the dangers that arose in the first half. Big changes that hurt the muscles and bones are not realistic. That's going to mess up. You can only make minor adjustments, after all, it's a draw, and it's not time to make a big move.
Back on the pitch in the second half, Aldridge and Arsene Wenger were still standing on the sidelines, looking at each other, but Wenger was wondering what Aldridge was thinking.
At half-time he changed his mind.
He didn't want to play penalties, so would Millwall be willing to play roulette?
So Arsene Wenger didn't make any adjustments, and Arsenal had the advantage on the pitch. He thinks Arsenal will score as a matter of course, as long as they can score first, Millwall's game will be over!
When the time comes, Arsenal will retreat to play defense, and Millwall's lineup, even if it changes to three attackers, will have limited offensive ability.
Arsenal still dominated the second half, and Millwall also continued the game posture of the first half, defending and counterattacking.
And when playing on the counter-attack, it is still Alonso who ensures that the front and back are excessive, and Ramour controls the rhythm of the attack. If there is no good opportunity, we will never rush to penetrate and attack.
The Welsh fans in the stands were in high spirits. The Arsenal and Millwall fans were still enthusiastic, but both teams were a little nervous, and as the game went by, there were no goals on the pitch, which means that once there is a goal, there will be less and less time left for the side behind!
Aldridge spent most of the day just standing on the sidelines and watching the game quietly, with a stern expression and very few physical movements, except for Millwall players who complained or protested when they were fouled or whistled for fouls.
He's been watching, not just watching.
The focus will be on Arsenal's defensive strategy when they play on the counter-attack at Millwall.
After the opening, when Arsenal switched from attack to defense, the range of retreat of all members was very large, only Ibrahimovic and Bergkamp were harassing and delaying on the first line, the midfield line, the back line, all retreated, and did not go to the nearest to force and intercept, the strategy of crazy siege in the midfield is not what Arsenal is used to, that kind of defensive strategy, the tacit understanding of the players is also very high, a point is wrong, maybe three or four people will be broken through, then the gap exposed behind will be clear at a glance.
They will drop back into their respective areas of responsibility in central midfield, play in the build-up, pack and hold key areas and limit the space for Millwall to counter-attack.
Millwall sometimes controls the tempo and takes the initiative to lower the degree to ensure that the ball is not lost, and allows Arsenal to run up and down long distances every time they attack and defend.
By the 6o minute of the second half, Aldridge's eyes suddenly became sharp.
The opportunity appeared.
An hour of going up and down, Arsenal's players are going to say they can't keep up physically, that's impossible.
However, when Millwall's counterattack is not obviously threatening and will take the initiative to slow down, Arsenal's front-court players no longer run all the way back to the backfield to occupy the position first, but directly in the process of chasing back!
Millwall can be regarded as a weak battle strong today, and Aldridge must of course be premeditated when arranging tactics, otherwise, he can only resign himself to fate.
Today's style of play will either consume the physical strength of Arsenal players, as long as Millwall insists on not conceding goals, then the more you go to the back of the game, the gap between Millwall and Arsenal's advantages and disadvantages will be smaller and smaller, and you can carry out explosive attacks in the final stage, just like a weak team playing a strong team, it is impossible to attack all over the field, choose a period to focus on raiding!
Another premeditated result is now, Arsenal's defense has changed since the opening, Millwall's non-threatening attack has lowered their vigilance, and at the same time they feel a decline in physical fitness, and subconsciously they are reluctant to go far and near, simply grab it directly, maybe grab it and move quickly after grabbing, and they can also catch Millwall off guard.
Regardless, Aldridge saw the opportunity to turn the game around, and he began to play his trump card.
However, he did not rush to show a picture of the action to crush Arsenal, as usual, he called Kaka and Ronaldo, who had finished warming up, to his side, hugged the two of them left and right, and taught him face-to-face.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Aldridge is ready to make a substitution, and Wenger naturally sees it, but he doesn't think that Kaka and Ronaldo can be an intuitive threat when they come on the field.
In the comparison of the ability of the same position, Kaka and Ronaldo, who have played in the first team for less than a year, can hardly be said to be stronger than any attacking player on the field in terms of experience and comprehensive strength.
It's more of a conservative substitution, right?
Unless, Aldridge is taking off a defender. Increase offensive players. That's definitely not conservative. It's a gamble!
Just as Millwall was about to make a substitution, there was a danger in the Millwall penalty area, Pire's inward cut back after a bottom knocked down the triangle passing line, Bergkamp then put the ball straight behind Semetzard, Ibrahimovic was about to grab the point and attack the goal, Pagliuca waved the ability to end the attack in the small penalty area, bravely abandoned the goal and fell to the ground to hold the ball half a step in his arms, and even he hugged Ibrahimovic's foot together.
Arsene Wenger sighed in disappointment. Today, Millwall is mainly defensive, the space in the penalty area is small, Bergkamp is good at passing and cutting in a small area and making the ball, so the narrow space is caught by him, but Ibrahimovic has to have a body, to have a technique, and there is no problem with awareness, a little worse is the degree, but it is not too slow, but it is just a millimeter.
Aldrich also broke out in a cold sweat. He breathed a sigh of relief and then proceeded to make a substitution.
"The game went to the 65th minute of the second half. Millwall took the lead in substitutions, Hall removed Klose and Villa, and replaced them with young new forces, Millwall's proud twin stars Kaka and Ronaldo, these two newcomers have attracted great attention from the outside world in this season's table, and are known as Millwall's next generation of new stars, it seems that Hall is betting on the two of them! ”
Arsene Wenger was really worried that Aldridge was gambling with him.
In case the two defenders are removed and replaced with Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, God knows what the crazy lion will reshape the game into!
Now that Wenger is relieved, Aldridge is staying for the Champions League final, after all, Ronaldo and Henry have just recovered from injury, and the outside world has no way of knowing whether the Champions League final can be played.
Arsenal continued to attack, and this wave of attack lasted for 3 minutes, in the periphery organization, the attack hit, control the perimeter landing point, reorganize the attack, and for a period of time, Millwall was overwhelmed.
Aldridge held his breath and Wenger's expression changed very brightly, and whenever Arsenal's attack failed to make it, he would shake his head and sigh, feeling sorry and faintly angry.
In the 69th minute, Millwall got a chance to counterattack, Neil took the ball forward from the side, and his focus on the surprise attack on this side was also because Ljungberg's defense on the other side was too ruthless, and Baynes could not do anything even if he went up, while Neil was Pire, who had room to swing in the attack.
However, this wave of counterattacks still did not work, and Ramour was directly eaten by Parlor, who returned to the defense, when he received in the front court, and the ball was successfully broken with his feet.
Arsenal continued to turn their heads and attack, and their attack was a bit risky, with Pire playing directly down the flank to find Ibrahimovic's high post, but Metzeld headed it away and De Rossi controlled the edge of the area, and he passed the ball to Alonso, who was running forward.
Alonso handed the ball to Ramour with a diagonal pass, and Arsenal's defenders chased back, seemingly intending to steal and move the fast attack directly, but this time, Ramour did not stop the ball, and then knocked back to the middle, Alonso boldly stepped forward, rushed forward directly after receiving the ball, and directly defended Vieira in front of the back line.
Alonso actually rushed three steps, and then made a decisive shot, the more he dribbled the ball, the more the degree decreased, because his dribbling degree was not fast, and his three steps were observational shì.
He passes the ball to Kaka, who is on the left.
Kaka was already running and Alonso's pass gave him an advance without having to slow down, and he took the ball in stride and when Vieira moved to defend Kaka head-on, Kaka crossed the ball to the right in front of the box.
Vieira turned his head to see that Ramour had run into the area before Parol returned!
This wave of counterattacks, Millwall did not delay in the slightest.
Ramour stopped the ball, passed the ball, and did it in one go, and his movements were very consistent.
Silvinho ran to defend him, but the ball passed past Silvinho, and that place was exactly three meters next to Campbell, Campbell didn't notice that there was someone behind him, but at the moment of Ramour's pass, a figure slanted between Keown and Campbell to receive Ramour's through ball.
netbsp; The galloping teenager was at the front from the beginning of the counterattack, and he kept running in the front area between Keown and Laurent while Kaka dribbled the ball, and when Kaka passed the ball to Ramour, Ronaldo activated the Ganeche, and walked in front of Keown, the diagonal corridor behind Campbell!
By the time Campbell turned around, it was too late, and Keown saw Ronaldo running and followed as soon as he saw him, but his degree was obviously not as good as Ronaldo, and when Ronaldo received the ball, he was still three meters away from Ronaldo.
Ronaldo didn't make any adjustments, and half-turned and shot above the near corner of the goal at a small angle!
Seaman made a mistake in prediction, he thought Ronaldo would adjust it, but he didn't expect this kid to shoot directly, and he took shit luck, and the angle of the ball shot was extremely tricky, he saved a step slowly, and the ball hung in the dead corner!
"The ball is in! This final has finally had a goal! Ronaldo became a hero, he opened the scoring for Millwall, this was an immediate substitution for Hall, Ronaldo ran wildly with excitement, the young lad was thrown to the ground by his teammates, listen to the cheers of the Lions fans on the scene, this is cheers for Ronaldo! ”
Arsene Wenger, frosty! (To be continued......)
