Thanks for the reward of "Death of the Thief"! ——

After the break, both teams returned to the field for kick-off.

Aldridge walked back to his position in front of the dugout and stood to supervise the game.

It's a gesture, playing against other teams, he can sit and play, but against Chelsea, especially at the top of the table, he has to send a signal to the players and the fans: attitude towards the game!

Although his sitting does not necessarily mean that he despises anyone, he stands on the sidelines and watches the game solemnly, which is a powerful gesture.

Millwall continued to shrink and counter-attack at the start of the second half, while Chelsea watched for a while.

With five minutes played, Chelsea were sure Millwall wasn't pressing like crazy and they started to play patiently.

Vialli looked nervous on the sidelines as he pondered what to do, with Millwall's defence solid, and after shrinking, Chelsea attacked with less and more and quickly lost possession once they were squeezed into space in a small area.

After being beaten and counterattacked, his own goal was in the limelight.

Edrich Aldridge was a little disappointed on the sidelines, and Frank Lampard's choice of ball when switching from defence to attack was always unsatisfactory to him.

Accustomed to Pirlo's ability to hit where he was and how to catch his opponent seven inches to the death, he couldn't help but feel disappointed when he saw that Frank Lampard's timing and route selection were not optimal.

This feeling made him think in the direction of goodness, that is: let Barack go without regret.

Now that we have Frank Lampard, the role of playmaker in midfield. There's no need to pile up so many people anymore.

This difference in player level is even more evident on the counter-attack.

The ball hesitated for a second. Maybe a single ball will become a half single knife.

The route is not optimal. If you can't threaten the opponent's goal most directly, maybe it will turn into a positional battle.

But there's no denying that Frank Lampard has grown up good enough, at least the passing success rate has reached a satisfactory point, and what he needs to improve in the next stage is to see the big picture and read the game, when to plug in, when to drop back to defend deeper, when to fill in the position, and when not to pass the ball and choose to pass himself

Chelsea will be looking to breach Millwall's defence in positional battles. You had to put in more attacking forces, so the full-backs started to plug in.

But they also didn't dare to let the two full-backs plug in at the same time, so they could only step forward to assist on one side.

Freire repeated his old trick, he stepped forward to play a one-two with Petroscu, passing Ronaldo, but Zambrotta consciously pressed forward and cut the ball precisely when Petrescu received the ball and was about to turn, and then stuffed it straight into Ronaldo.

After receiving the ball, Ronaldo made a feint on the spot, pretending to go outside, then dribbling horizontally to shake off Freir, followed by a diagonal pass to find Nedved.

Nedved passes a short pass to Ruud van Nistelrooy in front of him. Ruud van Nistelrooy then knocked the ball back to Ronaldo, who stopped the ball and sent a cross over the top diagonally into the box. Henry clapped his horse into the field and headed straight at the goal, but the ball went just wide of the post.

Henry clasped his hands together and covered his mouth, regretting that he had wasted this great opportunity, and then he gave little Robbi a thumbs up.

De Huye quickly set up a goalball and played it to Desailly for Chelsea to launch a fast attack.

Chelsea's fast-track run into the box was a pleasing sight, pushing forward quickly from the back, and players working together to break down Millwall's defence with kicks against the wall along the way.

In front of the penalty area, when the most of the ball faced Millwall's back line, Wise kicked the ball to Flo, who took the ball with his back, Materazzi did not give the opponent a chance to turn, and Flo put the ball back to Poyet, who cut in behind.

Frank Lampard was attracted to Wise, but Millwall made a clear mistake in defence, Schneider had shrunk to defend Wise, and Lampard was a pinch attack, but left a little bit open in the middle.

Poyet raised his foot to shoot at the incoming ball.

A meteor-like trajectory was presented in the eyes of the audience.

Bout flew to the end but failed to touch the ball, this kick can wipe out all the goalkeepers, hanging straight to the corner of the goal, the world is a wave!

"Poyet's World Wave! The world is a wave! Chelsea pulled one back in the 58th minute of the second half and now the score is 2-3, Chelsea are only one goal behind! It was a brilliant goal, starting from the back, Chelsea played the attack in front of the penalty area through a series of short passes, Poyet's long-range shot pierced Bout's ten fingers, this ball is impossible for anyone to save, which can compete with Ronaldinho's goal in the first half in this round, no, the best goal in the Premier League of the year! ”

Poyet's goal ignited excitement at Stamford Bridge and the Chelsea fans stood up and cheered as if the souls that had been removed from their bodies in the first half had returned to their bodies and brought them back to life.

Chelsea fans waved their fists and shouted for the team to work harder, harder!

Vialli was also infected by the atmosphere of the stadium and Poyet's goal, or rather he was given a chance to let his emotions unleash.

Against a formidable opponent like Millwall, the pressure on him is unimaginable.

Vialli jumped up and raised his arms and shouted, then clapped at the players, with an excited look on his face to get the players back into position quickly, there was still time left, they were going to equalize, no, not just equaliser, but also to reverse!

The Great Reversal!

Vialli greeted the stands at the back of the day, so that the fans could cheer the players even harder!

Aldridge crossed his hands on his hips and smiled wryly after conceding the ball.

I'm not convinced!

Millwall couldn't get a header from close range, and a shot from outside the box left you speechless.

Ten more shots from the same position on goal for Poyet might not have been able to score the goal, but this time it was in!

If you want to say how sharp Chelsea's previous series of combinations were, Aldridge didn't think that let Chelsea try to develop in the penalty area again, the deadliest through ball, do they have it? Is there a breakthrough in the threat zone?

Being beaten into the world is the most helpless thing for the head coach.

I can't even find a gap to vent.

Do you blame Millwall's players?

No team can completely block the area in the first 35 yards of the box, and a long-range shot is a surefire move. Be sure to get closer to the goal and then shoot. Who will shoot from a distance?

But after feeling the goal conceded. Aldridge made a quick change, replacing Ruud van Nistelrooy with Van der Meyde.

After the substitution, the Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge were immediately in high spirits.

Millwall coaxed!

It seems that this is the case, with a striker removed and a wing-back replaced.

Millwall's formation changed from 433 to 451 or 442, at least defensively 451, because Nedved was too strong to run up and down.

Vialli's expression has become a little hideous at the moment, and he is full of confidence in the reversal. Chelsea's squad is also buzzing with confidence.

Aldridge regained his composure on the sidelines.

His substitutions were a signal that he didn't need to gesture to the players anymore.

The second goal was conceded in a hurry.

After the game restarted, it was already the 60th minute of full-time.

Aldrich said secretly in his heart: After 30 minutes, let's fight again!

When Millwall kicked off, the Chelsea players went on a frenzy and Freir broke the ball from Ronaldinho's feet and immediately launched a fast attack, but unfortunately they saw the hope of an equaliser, but instead played a bit risky, and a long ball from the ground to try to break through Millwall's defensive zone was whimsical. Claude Makelele intercepted a pass and passed it to Frank Lampard, who deflected the ball almost with his eyes closed to the feet of Donny van der Meyde on the other side.

Henry, who moved from winger to centre-forward, pulled out the ball opening. Donny van der Meyde linked up with him and after a two-two, he fed the ball to Nedved in front of the box, where the Czech's long-range shot was saved by De Gouye.

Chelsea were aiming for a comeback at Stamford Bridge, but when they had the ball and were on the attack, they suddenly found that Millwall's tactics had changed again.

The high-pressure rush is back!

That's right, Millwall's tactical strategy today is to play the first 30 minutes and the last 30 minutes, and spend the middle with the opponent.

Aldridge's thinking before the game was that as long as they did not concede a goal, the further the time went on, Chelsea would definitely not be satisfied with a draw, and then in the last 30 minutes, the opponent would play more risky, and Millwall's high-pressure pressing would be more threatening than in the first 30 minutes.

As a result, his idea was not realized in the game, but the reality was better than expected.

Millwall have conceded goals, but they have scored more, and now Chelsea are down by a goal and are desperate to equalise, so they are less patient when organising attacks than they were in the draw, so the error rate will be much higher.

Coupled with Millwall's frantic pressing, they fell into a panic all at once.

The ambition to equalise has not yet been realized, but their own defence is shaky.

Vialli watched from the sidelines, and the Chelsea fans in the stands were worried.

How?

obviously pulled back two goals, and the opponent also withdrew a striker, why was he pressed and beaten by the opponent again!

Millwall pressed the opponent's attack from the 70th minute of the game, and Chelsea did not even dare to pass the ball at the back, for fear of being intercepted by the opponent and then directly launch a second attack to penetrate the defense.

However, their big foot clearance was controlled by Millwall's backline, who quickly launched a quick attack.

Millwall's attacking hierarchy is clear, and it is the team's consistent zone positioning that cuts through Chelsea's formation, forcing opponents to pass in a tight area when pressing high-pressure.

Henry can't say that he can't feel in the center position, but moving to the center is a bit unsatisfactory, and even getting the opportunity to kick the goal is not up to standard, and the hasty kick seems to be lacking in confidence.

But the performances of the players in other positions are very reassuring.

Millwall have accumulated the upper hand, constantly pressing the nerves of the challenging Chelsea players, threatening the opposition after successive successful presses, and attacking in waves and waves.

In the 84th minute of the game, Ronaldo took the ball to the middle and crossed to Van der Meyde, who crossed with his feet.

The Chelsea player got his hands on the ball but was not far away, and Frank Lampard, who was cut in behind, rushed forward in front of Di Matteo, unloaded the ball with his chest, and then handed the ball to Ronaldo, who looked at the six ways and fired a ball to the right side of the box.

Behind the top, Chelsea's Le Sox on the left flank stared at Van der Meyde, and the opposition did run forward before Ronaldo's pass, which attracted the Le Sox defence.

However, it was quicker to get a man out from behind Van der Meyde, and Le Sox was not expecting Schneider to assist in the box, and he couldn't distract himself from marking Schneider, causing the latter to easily get the ball in the box, followed by a cross, Henry outflanked it this time and pushed the ball into the goal!

'Millwall completely kept Chelsea at bay in the second half of the game and they scored again and the gap between the two teams was back two goals apart, and the goal was scored by Thierry Henry, the club's all-time transfer target! He was very good today, with one goal and two assists, Hall can sleep soundly, and it's worth £10 million! ”

Thierry Henry was thrilled with the goal, not only for his first Premier League goal, but also for Millwall.

If he hadn't wasted two golden chances before, he would have scored a goal a long time ago!

Aldridge smiled and applauded from the sidelines, while Vialli, who was not far from him, looked numb.

When he and Chelsea saw the brightest light, Millwall clouded their skies like a devil, and then five thunderbolts knocked them out into the abyss of despair. (To be continued......)
