United's dominance on the left flank continued to build, while Millwall's counter-attacks became more threatening, and after the scoreline changed, Aldridge's style of battle with Alex Ferguson, and the battle between the Red Devils and the Lions.

In the 39th minute of the first half, Ryan Giggs crossed from the left, York was about to swing his leg with the ball in the penalty area, Makelle made a successful steal, and then turned the ball straight into Pirlo, who ran forward from the back.

Pirlo passed the ball to Nedved again, who passed the ball to Ronaldinho who cut inside from the left side, Ronaldo dribbled horizontally and looked at the gap to pass the ball between the Manchester United back line and the back line, Larsson slapped the horse, and used the speed of rushing up to change direction at the moment of receiving the ball past Erwin, Johansson came up to block him, Larsson changed direction and went directly to the inside line, as long as he broke through the past is a single knife, but the speed was too fast, Johansson defended him and pounced fiercely, the two collided together, and Larsson fellThe referee motioned for the game to continue, believing it to be a reasonable collision.

Larsson stood up and sat down again, gesturing to the sidelines with one hand on his thigh.

'Oops, Larsson seems to be injured and he took the initiative to signal the manager to make a substitution, Millwall is going to make a passive substitution.

Aldridge's face became ugly on the sidelines, the collision just now is indeed not a foul by the standards of the Premier League, and the collision of players is commonplace on the football field, whether it will be injured depends on physical fitness and whether the body can protect itself in time to make a posture change during the collision.

Larsson had already made a forward lunge just now, and at this time he collided together, and he was slightly passive when he collided. The chance of injury becomes even higher.

Aldridge asked Glen Charles to warm up. It's a passive substitution. At the same time, he briefly communicated with Jensen, and asked Jensen to assign tasks to Glenschal, there is not much time left in the first half of the game, and Aldridge will tell Glenschal in detail at halftime.

Larsson walked off the pitch with the team doctor on his feet, and Aldridge walked over and patted him on the shoulder as a sign of reassurance, then turned to watch the game.

When Larsson was not on the pitch, Aldridge immediately gestured to the attacking players up front. Let them all return to the defense first to make up for the numerical disadvantage.

However, it is still a matter of game experience, and neither Vanney nor Ronaldo pay attention to the situation of the team temporarily playing one less player.

The drop back wasn't big enough to give United a good chance to press on the attack.

Especially Erwin, when Larsson came off, there was no defensive pressure on his side, so he immediately took advantage of this opportunity to step forward.

Manchester United continue to create chances by playing down the left flank.

Schneider had been playing against Ryan Giggs, and even though the opposition could pass the ball, the tempo had been slowed down, and Millwall's defence had been laid out. It's easy to defend.

When Irwin pressed up, Giggs returned the pass. Erwin continued to move forward with the ball, and Schneider was depressed.

At this time, if Vanney is smart or has enough experience, he can either retreat to take Nedved's position and let Nedved help defend the wing, or take the initiative to harass Erwin himself, but Vanney still follows Keane like the previous defense

Schneider had no choice but to step forward to force Erwin, but as soon as he moved, Erwin unexpectedly passed the ball back to Giggs, and Giggs consciously cut inside, and just entered the penalty area to get the ball after a feint shot to attract Millwall's defensive attention, and then faked a real pass, knocking back to the top of the arc of the penalty area, Scholes seemed to be about to shoot from a distance, but missed the ball, Beckham, who ran up from behind, hit Millwall's defense with a straight kick, and Cole and York, who had been pressing on the left side, moved to the right almost at the same timeSouthgate was interfered with by York, Cole pulled the ball sideways and shook it out of the air and pushed it with a kick, but Bout fell to the ground to save but to no avail, and the ball was drilled into the dead corner against the post.

"Just before the end of the first half, Manchester United equalised! This time the attacking combination was wonderful, they kept attacking on the left flank, and suddenly turned to the right side, it was such a change of rhythm and a sudden shift in attack tore apart Millwall's defence, and Kerr calmly shot to continue last season's good competitive form. ”

Ferguson applauded the goal and was very pleased with the performance of his disciples.

Aldrich angrily confronted Fanny and Ronaldo.

He had an angry look on his face, which had been hard to see before.

In the past, they played conservatively and played defensive counter-attacks, and the players would be more inclined to defend in their consciousness and would put defense first.

But now it's different, although Millwall is not a giant, it must be recognized as a strong team, most of the time it is to press the opponent to play, Shevchenko, Trezeguet and other players have defensive awareness, because they came from that stage, and they will not lose their housekeeping skills.

But Xiao Luo, Vanney, as soon as they hit the main force, they are in an offensive posture, and in the order of priority, they are heavy on offense and light on defense!

Aldridge didn't fail to remind the two of them, but they didn't take it seriously, the team was ahead, the first half was almost over, and the concentration dropped.

Vanney's defensive position is problematic, Xiao Luo is following Beckham, following and following, and when Beckham comes to the front court and suddenly accelerates forward, Xiao Luo is a step slower, Beckham did not stop the ball, and directly kicked the ball, Xiao Luo watched his door being breached.

The Lions fans in the stands of the Lion's Den Stadium did not expect this conceded goal to make Aldridge so angry, it is strange, although they are a little depressed, they are not to the point of loss or anger.

Aldridge doesn't care about conceding goals, which team can't concede goals? But the key is the way to concede the ball, playing Manchester United, was scored by Beckham with a direct free kick, he has nothing to say, and some goals are even God can't stop them.

But if conceding a goal is a problem on his side, he can't tolerate it, and if the player is able to do it.

Before the game restarted, Aldridge brought on Glen Shire, and with only two minutes of stoppage time left in the first half, Millwall defended well to allow Glen Charles to settle into the team.

Manchester United equalized away from home, and they were not in a hurry to attack, in the case of a balanced number, their previous risky attack could not be continued, and they were not counterattacked by Millwall, because their offensive cooperation was not tacit enough. Ronaldo and Ruud van Nistelrooy still need a lot of experience to get there.

Especially this kind of critical battle!

Aldridge walked into the tunnel with a calm face. When the players walked into the dressing room one by one. Aldridge slammed the door shut and angrily reprimanded Ruud van Nistelrooy: "When I specifically asked you to strengthen the defense, you have to realize that you need to do more, not just the standard that was asked before the game, Henrik went off injured, we played one less, Elwin assisted, don't you see?" ”

Fanny kept his head down, and he didn't dare to come out. There is no justification either.

Aldridge turned around again and roared at Ronaldo: "Before the game, I said that you should keep an eye on Beckham while defending, and you patted your chest and promised me that you could do it, but what was the result?" He was right in front of you and assisted his team-mate to score! ”

Xiao Luo did not bow his head, but sincerely whispered to Aldrich: "I'm sorry, boss. ”

Aldridge waved his hand and said, "Don't apologize to me, you failed your teammates." ”

He looked around at all the players again and said coldly: "In the past four years, we have created brilliant achievements and achieved certain achievements. If this makes some of you think you can sit back and enjoy it in the future, trophies and honors will automatically come to your door. Then you're done, completely finished, and there won't be anything more in your career! You must not forget that the greatest condition for success is your own efforts! Work harder than others, work harder than your opponents, because you have given more than others to have the opportunity to achieve success, not that success is innate! In the second half, I need to see you show the highest concentration, the strongest determination to win, defend our goal together, destroy the opponent's goal together! ”

Xiao Luo immediately said: "Boss, I know what I said. ”

Aldrich immediately replied: "It's not Zhiludao! You should say I can do it! I was able to do better than I expected! ”

Xiao Luo raised his head and said loudly: "Boss, I can do it!" I'm going to do better than you could ever hope for! ”

Fanny also quickly raised his head and said loudly: "I will do it too!" ”

Aldridge's face softened a little, he didn't want to get angry, but he couldn't get angry, he just needed to make these young players who had just been promoted to the main team understand the reality at the right time.

I have to say that many young players who "marry into a giant" have more or less some ideas in their hearts that it will be easier to succeed in a strong team, you can't say that such an idea is wrong, the reality is that the giants are easier to produce results, but if they lower their own requirements because of such an idea, then the giants may always have good results, but when it comes to meritorious deeds, the contribution of players must be different, and the kind of players with a fluke mentality, I am afraid that most of them are marginal figures.

Aldridge began to adjust the tactics of the second half, not to mention the opponent, but he needed to adjust himself, Larsson and Glen Shire, that is obviously two different styles of players.

Aldridge walked back to the sidelines before the start of the second half, where he sat down and waited for the game to begin.

Alex Ferguson also sat down and United equalised, and although he couldn't say it, he was happy with the draw.

Manchester United are in the midst of an eventful season and of course the team should be stable in terms of results, lest he be criticised as a manager, especially if a new owner may come.

At the start of the second half, Millwall's style of play changed completely.

Ronaldo rarely breaks forward after winning the ball on the left, but instead organizes on the spot, attracting the attention of United's defence and distributing the ball to Nedved or Andrea Pirlo.

Then transition from midfield to the right, let Glen Charles impact Irwin, last year Glen Charles against Irwin did not fall behind, this year Irwin is a year older, Glen Charles is more mature, play sharper.

In the second half, Millwall was very focused as a team, and at least there were no problems at both ends of the pitch.

"Ronaldinho's position and role on the field now, more like a wing midfielder, it's a bit strange to say this, but it's true, he took the initiative to play with Pirlo and Nedved, Millwall's control of the midfield has increased sharply, and faintly kicked out the taste of samba football, it's really a pleasure to see Xiao Luo get rid of the technical movements in situ, Pirlo stopped the ball and pulled the ball and turned around, elegant and calm, Nedved played the ball concisely, plus the speed impact brought by Glen Shire's start on the right side, Lion's Den is Hollywood by the River Thames! ”

Glen Schal broke down the right and crossed, crossed, crossed, three consecutive crosses, twice Ruud van Nistelrooy grabbed the spot, one shot was saved by Schmeichel, and once he slammed Stam on the spot but Keane returned to destroy the shooting opportunity from behind, gradually, Manchester United paid more attention to Ruud van Nistelrooy's marking.

Ferguson's face was slightly nervous.

Left-back, left-back, Manchester United's left-back problem has been exposed again, Erwin is indeed old, and now it is the world of young people, in the face of Glen Char, he rushed him with speed, Erwin can only shrink the bottom line in addition to fouls to prevent the opponent from cutting inside after going down (to be continued......)
