Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
The clock on the scoreboard at Old Trafford was ticking by second, with three minutes of stoppage time now two minutes already elapsed.
Millwall was still attacking, Manchester United couldn't control the ball at all, and could only hastily clear the ball after every time they defused the opponent's attack, and then were controlled by Millwall's midfielders and continued to attack.
Ronaldo became the target of the focus in front of the penalty area, and Pirlo was also targeted.
Seeing that the time is at the last moment, Southgate doesn't care so much, if he can't score, it doesn't make much difference to concede another one.
He strode up and Ronaldo noticed his movements, knocked the ball on his heel and gave it to Southgate, who disrupted the United defence, and he took the ball straight past Becky and then distributed the ball to the now unmarked Andrea Pirlo on the other side when Bart came to help.
Keane stared at Ronaldo, Bart stared at Pirlo, two seconds ago it was, but now, Pirlo is unmarked and looks at the situation in the box before taking the ball.
No matter how much Henry, Klose and Larsson interspersed their movements, the space in the box was too narrow.
Pirlo did not hesitate, adjusting the space for a long shot while stopping the ball, and aimed at the bottom left corner of the opponent's goal to shoot the ball.
It was a low, long-range shot that Pirlo aimed at the corner, but was slightly central in order to make sure he hit the goal.
Barthez fell to the ground and swooped out, touching the ball with his right hand and blocking it.
Just as the Reds were about to applaud Barthez, the ball bouncing to the left of the box was met by Zambrotta, who cut inside the wing, and Neville immediately moved to block it. Behind him, Henry ran out of the catch gap. Zambrotta passes the ball to Thierry Henry with a short pass.
Henry. Stop the ball, pull horizontally, and then what?
If there's enough space, he'll put on a scene that people are used to, start the explosion, get rid of the defense, that's what he's good at.
But now, everyone thinks that he will definitely half-turn and volley!
That's what Brown thinks, too. So he stretched out his foot to block the opponent's next shot.
However, Henry unexpectedly smashed the ball and turned around!
He and Brown were almost close to each other's bodies, and Henry forced his way past the opponent after the opponent stretched out his foot to block and lost his center of gravity, what about the ball? Rolled from under Brown's crotch to the back!
Brown turned around after he finished his move, he had completely lost his position, Henry turned his back to him, did not give him any chance to kick, if he forced his kick, it would probably be a foul!
Suddenly buckled over Brown, between the lightning and flint. Henry moves well and is sideways towards goal. With a tight angle, Henry pushed safely, and he was very close to Barthez, about 5 meters away.
Barthez realized it was too late when the ball was in the air.
The ball rolled between his legs and into the goal behind him.
After finishing the shot and seeing the ball go in, Henry turned and ran towards the corner flag area, nodding his head as he ran with a grim expression, and finally came to the sideline in a sliding track, his fists clenched and constantly swinging up and down in front of him.
"Millwall, the equaliser! Whistle Flat! Pirlo's long-range shot was the first wave of attack, after this attack, Millwall Guò control zhì periphery landing point again moved a second attack, at this time Manchester United's defense has been a little loose, Henry is no longer caught by Neville and Brown, he got a one-on-one opportunity with Brown, in the penalty area, Henry pulled the ball and turned around, the action coherently passed Brown, and then pushed the shot at a small angle, it is worth mentioning that this goal, Henry scored three goals! Brown and Barthez's goal, and, most importantly, Manchester United's goal! 3:3, the contest between two of England's strongest teams, regardless of the occasion, place and time, always brings us a passionate peak duel, this time, judging from the results, Hall's team was able to retreat at Old Trafford under the influence of a variety of unfavorable factors, and he won again! ”
The whole Manchester United team players froze in place, and Ferguson bent down slightly and slapped his hands on his thighs, this goal made the three points they got fly again!
Eh, why again?
Aldridge clenched his fists and nodded his head with his eyes closed, it was disappointing not to be able to take all three points, but to be able to walk away from home instead of losing is good for both the festive days of Christmas and the morale of the team in the future.
This is Manchester United's home stadium, and although the game has come to an end after the goal and the team's celebrations, the referee will definitely give the United almost 3o seconds.
Aldridge didn't ink either, and directly used the remaining two substitutions, replacing Ronaldo and Thierry Henry, and strengthening the defense with Frank Lampard and Pedretti.
It's not that he doesn't want to score another goal in the remaining 3o seconds to stage a comeback, but the initiative after kick-off is on Manchester United's side, and if it is Millwall kick-off, he will definitely not make substitutions.
Manchester United also patiently organized the offensive after the restart, but when it came to the last pass, it still became a cross from the side, after Materazzi's header was cleared, the whistle sounded at the end of the game, 3:3, the two teams shook hands, and Millwall was still 1 point behind Manchester United in the standings.
Aldridge walked over to shake hands with Ferguson, and the two had nothing to talk about, and Ferguson even dismissed the idea of inviting Aldrich to have a drink.
Every time he played Millwall, it was like a military parade in real time, and the idea of making a change was still in his mind.
Today is a special day, Christmas Eve, Aldridge does not want to delay the time for the players to go home and reunite with their families, and directly explained to Klinsmann before leaving the field: the team will leave Manchester directly.
After the game, the dressing room saved the training session, tomorrow Christmas, the team has a day off, some players may not be in London for the holiday, there are plans to catch a flight in the evening, simply let them hurry up and arrange their schedules.
Aldridge walked to the post-match press conference.
The reporters' questions were simple and to the point.
'If Bout hadn't been injured, would Millwall have been able to walk away from home with three points? After all, one of United's goals was scored by a direct mistake by the substitute goalkeeper. ”
"I'm not going to make that assumption, do it all over again, and Bout won't get hurt. Won't the situation change on the field? Of course, it will be another scene. There are a lot of accidents on the football field. There are no ifs. ”
"If Bout's situation is bad, will Millwall count on Keller next? You are still behind in the league, and the Champions League has reached the second stage of the group stage. ”
Aldrich was silent for three seconds and then said: "No if, I will go and see Bout's situation before thinking about it, it's too early to say anything." ”
In fact, Aldridge already had the idea of introducing a goalkeeper in his heart, in addition to ensuring the strength of the substitute, but also because of Bout's injury, the reporters were right. If Bout will be absent for a long time, Keller really can't be counted on, usually playing in cup games, or in the middle and lower reaches of the league, Keller has no problem, the offensive pressure itself is not big, and the strength requirements are not so high, but if it is to play the Champions League, there is also a key battle in the upper reaches of the English group, like Keller's table today. It could bury Millwall's entire team's efforts throughout the season.
Aldridge will not shirk the blame on the players, to be fair. The player's strength is not enough, hard, and the responsibility after the defeat is his, therefore, he needs to look at Bout's injury first, and then make a decision, but the preliminary diagnosis of the team doctor has made Aldridge feel at the bottom, that is at least a month out of the injury, if it is strict, from treatment, recuperation, recovery to the state, the time span may be more than 3-6 months, after all, the goalkeeper injured his arm, which is almost the same importance as the striker injured his leg.
When asked about the significance of the draw, Aldridge replied sternly: "First of all, we were not opened up on the points, if Manchester United win, they will start the second half of the season with a four-point advantage, four points, it doesn't sound like much, but for our level of competition, it's a very big gap, although I regret that the team didn't win, but at least we didn't lose, and we keep a one-point gap with Manchester United, which is an acceptable result." If we look at Manchester United in the last few years, we will see that Manchester United have always been very strong in the second half of the season after Christmas, rarely make mistakes, and in the second half of the season, they will try to maintain their top position, but I would say that Millwall will not give them a chance to lift the league trophy in May, Manchester United, it is better to cherish the position at the top of the table, they don't have much time to sit on it, we will catch them before the end of the season, there is nothing to discuss. ”
Manchester United are the halfway champions of the league, yes, they sit on the leader's throne, Aldridge has not left Old Trafford, and he has directly launched psychological warfare, exerting huge pressure on Manchester United.
As for Millwall itself, it has tempered a champion temperament and a big heart, and the champion should be ours!
The outside world is suspicious of us, and it will provoke our aggressiveness**.
On the contrary, whether Manchester United can sit on the top spot is a huge test for them, and every round of games inevitably asks: will they be reversed by Millwall?
In the player table, Aldridge focused on praising Klose, although the little carpenter who worked hard in the game did not have much in the first half, but after Millwall blew the offensive horn in the second half, he was the most prominent player in the team.
The reporters focused on Henry.
Throughout the game, Thierry Henry seemed to climb up from the trough little by little, from the first minute all the way up, until the 93rd minute to the top, and then scored a goal to help the team equalize.
Aldrich responded to the media with an understatement.
'Thierry Henry scored, a big goal, so it was convincing.'
The striker's life is diametrically opposed to the defender, most of the time he didn't show his face, as long as he can score, he can offset the previous bad performance, the defender highlights 89 minutes, as long as there is 1 minute of badness, he may be criticized for being incomplete.
Aldridge flew back to London alone, leaving first on the club's special airliner with the team.
He took a taxi outside the airport to his parents' house in the eastern suburbs, and on Christmas Eve, his parents carefully prepared a table of food at home, and the Hall family rarely got together for the holidays.
Big brother Barnett has been making headlines in American business magazines lately, and outside news has been reporting the fiasco of this British investment businessman!
The year 2ooo was a year of Internet depression, with so-called rapid exhibitions, too high expectations, and bubble bursts.
In the process, Barnett has also frequently restructured his portfolio companies, and along with the overall market trend, some of his investment actions have been interpreted as failures.
But in fact, the people on the cusp of the Internet industry, the worst losers, also profit more than the outdated winners.
Like Netscape being acquired, the visual perception is a bleak end, but what is the final price of Netscape? $1oo billion! If it weren't for the Internet industry, who would have imagined that a browser product could sell at such a sky-high price? How can the founder of Netscape have a bulge in his pocket?
Barnett's company, like the industry giant Microsoft, is making a series of failed investments that others seem to be "wasteful resources", a process that must be necessary, otherwise how can there be any room for survival in the future? During the great oscillations brought about by this industrial revolution, those who do not participate or quit will inevitably regret it in the future, and only those who are brave enough to participate in it and become the protagonist can reap the greatest benefits, and instead of worrying, it is better to move forward.
Barnett was originally barefoot, and the courage to take risks was the basis of survival, and he was very low-key in the United States, and when he returned to England, he became flamboyant, and the Christmas gift to Aldrich was a luxury cruise ship worth $200 million.
can make such a generous shot, did this failed tycoon who was ridiculed by Wall Street make or lose? (To be continued......)
