The news of Stam's transfer has caused a stir in England, and in three years, he has grown into a top defender in England and an undisputed star among the defensive players, and his transfer will naturally be the most interesting topic.

Millwall officially announced that Stam will be on a transfer after the season, and no other information will be disclosed.

The news continued to heat up, because Stam did not appear on the training ground at Millwall again, and it was not until a week later, when Stam showed up in Manchester for a medical examination, that everyone in the outside world understood: Stam transferred to Manchester United!

Aldridge could have kept his mouth shut about Stam, but he chose to cut the mess quickly, if he kept covering it, then Stam's incident would have been tracked by the British paparazzi, and the outside public opinion would have surrounded Millwall, and if it continued to develop, it would have a bad impact on the team.

Rather than hiding it, it is better to light the fuse directly, and when the incident breaks out, the team will return to calm as soon as the news heat has passed, and this time is right, Aldridge believes that he has done nothing wrong, and before the second leg of the European Cup Winners' Cup, the Stam transfer incident has begun to cool down.

Paris Saint-Germain arrived at London's Wembley Stadium to make a comeback, with Aldridge leading Millwall to the final with the other foot.

Wembley Stadium was packed, and the highest attendance here was only 70% in the previous European games, because the visiting away teams were some unpopular characters, but today Millwall are going to play against defending champions Paris Saint-Germain, and not only the Lions fans flocked to the stadium, but many neutral fans also came here to cheer.

Before the start of the game. Aldridge walked onto the pitch. It immediately detonated the atmosphere of the stadium. The Lions fans in the stands sang songs in support of Aldridge, cheering him on with clapping and cheering.

Aldrich walked forward in a black trench coat with his hands in his jacket pockets, his face was very calm, and even looked slightly cold.

In the past week, the atmosphere at the club has not been good because of the transfer of Staham, because they have been harassed by the media. However, the players in the team unified their thinking, quickly stabilized the morale of the army, and boosted morale with a big win in the league a few days ago.

boom

Aldridge was suddenly bumped on the shoulder, and he stopped and turned his head to see a cartoon-shaped blue lion, which was Millwall's mascot: Leo.

Before the start of the game, some staff dressed up as mascots moved around the stadium, took photos with fans, and teased the young fans in the stands. It's all normal to please the audience.

Aldrich watched as the mascot, Leo, held out his hand towards him. Aldrich smiled and just stretched out his right hand, but the other party pulled it back, leaving Aldrich in embarrassment.

The fans in the stands were amused by the sight.

Aldrich was also not annoyed and was about to turn away, but the mascot Leo hugged him again and gave him a thumbs up to the stands.

Some of the fans in the nearby stands had cameras and immediately captured the picture.

Aldridge kept hooking with Leo for ten seconds before letting go, and then continued to walk in the direction of the home team's coach's box, but the restless blue lion caught up with him again, and even more forcefully grabbed his hands and made a dancing move.

The fans burst into laughter.

Aldrich watched as his opponent's hands danced, and his facial muscles began to twitch.

You're undercover, aren't you?

Troublesome here?

He looked to the sidelines as if asking for help, intending to have the course management come and warn the lion.

I'm the manager of Millwall, I'm not here to be funny!

"Hey, give me enough to stop!"

Aldrich exclaimed.

Leo stopped, and a muffled voice came from inside the lion's head.

"Boss, you're so boring!"

Aldrich vaguely identified the owner of the voice.

"Ronaldo?"

"Uh-huh, you don't dance, I'll dance myself."

Aldrich laughed dumbly.

Unexpectedly, today's unlucky lion is played by Xiao Luo.

Next, Leo danced a graceful samba from the sidelines, leaving the crowd in the stands stunned.

That lion is so cute!

As more and more fans wanted to take pictures with Leo, Aldridge snorted and shook his head slightly towards the dugout.

"What are you playing with him?"

Benitez frowned when he saw Aldrich approaching.

Aldridge smiled and said nothing, not that he wanted to play, but that he was pulled up by Xiao Luo.

At this time, he saw the visiting coach Fernandez appear on the sidelines, so he walked over and took the initiative to say hello and say a few words.

The two sides played the same line-up as they did in the first leg, and Aldridge noticed that the PSG players were determined to come to London with the belief that they would turn the tables around.

Aldridge stood on the sidelines, quietly waiting for the game to begin.

Although this is London, the team is not too familiar with this field, from the familiar advantage of the field conditions, there is not much difference between the two teams, and, in a sense, the European competition at Wembley is very exciting for the away team, and this is the most glorious stadium in England!

Millwall's only absolute advantage was the cheering of the fans in the stands.

Before the game began, a name rang out in the stadium, and the Lions enthusiasts roared Millwall's name tirelessly, like a slogan, but never stopped.

Fernandes cheered on the team with an unparalleled aura on the sidelines, forming a-for-tat confrontation with Aldridge's lofty and majestic shore in silence.

Immediately after the opening, PSG launched a fierce attack, with players running aggressively and especially intensifying long-range shots from outside the box in an attempt to knock the mountain and disrupt Millwall's rhythm.

In the third minute of the game, Raj suddenly lifted his foot to the door from 40 yards out, and the ball slid out of the goal, startling Bout in a cold sweat.

Two minutes later, Leonardo fired a long-range shot from the right from outside the box. The ball is blocked by Bout. Loko's follow-up shot from the second attack was blocked by Elgra with his thigh.

Another minute passed. Leroy crossed a long diagonal cross into the box just past the halfway line, Southgate rose to the top, Loko cut in diagonally to stop the ball and fired into the goal, and the ball was easily tucked into Bute's arms.

In the first ten minutes, Millwall was beaten by Paris Saint-Germain and was powerless.

Aldridge was still expressionless on the sidelines, and Jenson even came up to him and proposed: "Let Nedved drop back and Pirlo switch places!" ”

Aldrich shook his head in refusal.

The reason for the suppression was in midfield, and after Pirlo started in place of Ballack, there was a clear gap in the defensive intensity in this kind of strong dialogue, and Pirlo only played for more than 60 minutes in the last game. At that time, most of the veterans of Paris Saint-Germain were in low fitness, but this game had just begun, and they were full of energy and entered the game very quickly.

Aldrich kept repeating in his mind: Andrea, resist, Andrea, resist

If it is simply stuck in the defensive position, Pirlo is no problem, but the defensive skills need to be strengthened. Let him intercept the trajectory of the ball in the sports battle, it is not a big problem. But in the face of a player with delicate skills like Rai, it is very likely to be deceived, and Paris Saint-Germain deliberately retreated the organization area, and Makelle did not dare to press too close to let there be too much space behind him.

Pirlo also consciously stepped back, linking his defensive position to the backline, and even if he was overcome, he could compress the opponent's forward space.

Paris Saint-Germain have to score, so their attack is getting more and more fierce, which is risky, and Millwall's tactics today are also very simple, it is by no means a dead defense, as long as there is a chance, then it is necessary to kill the game!

Pirlo was passed by Raj again, but he consciously blocked his right side, inducing Rai to break through from his left side, Rai just passed Pirlo, Makelele appeared in front of the opponent, before the opponent made the next move, Makelele stretched out his foot to cut the ball, and then handed the ball to Pirlo.

Seeing the defense this time, Aldridge nodded in satisfaction.

For Pirlo's defensive training, Aldridge almost let the coaching staff direct one-on-one, he can defend the lack of skills, but the defensive awareness and defensive positioning must be excellent to make up for the technical links.

That's the case just now, he was in a reasonable position, so that Rai could only break through from the right side in the choice of route, Pirlo was passed, but formed a joint defense with Makellele, after Rai passed Pirlo, but let Makelele take the lead in the defense, because Makelele was waiting for the opponent to come from this side.

Pirlo took the ball and looked in front of him, then sent the ball to the front of the pitch with a through ball, Nedved took the ball laterally and drew the attention of Gueran, then he passed the ball to the retreating Trezeguet, who turned his back to the incoming Trezeguet and passed it back to Larsson who leaned from the left to the middle, who squeezed the ball into the back of the box and crossed the back line to the back of the box.

The ball went from the back to the front, from centre to left, and then diagonally from the left to the back of the box, challenging the nerve reflexes of the PSG players.

Goalkeeper Rama also moved on the goal line with the direction of the ball, and at this time, he moved from the right to the left, and following the trajectory of the ball, a blue figure came into view.

Ukrainian nuclear warheads!

"Shevchenko leaps to the top! Rama didn't touch the ball! The ball is in! Millwall leads 1-0! The aggregate score is three to one! ”

The stands at Wembley Stadium were like a tsunami, and the fans stood up with their hands held high, cheering and applauding for a long time.

Aldridge threw his fist hard, his expression still a little cold.

Shevchenko's goal made Paris Saint-Germain even worse.

Fernandes has yet to surrender and cheer his players on the sidelines.

But Paris Saint-Germain became more and more frustrated, while Millwall played more and more composure, and fifteen minutes later, Andrea Pirlo stepped in front of him and fired a long-range shot that deflected off a defender and bounced into the back of the net.

Rama watched the ball fly to the right side of the goal, he was 100% sure that the save was successful, but the defender stretched out his foot to block, but the ball was refracted to the left side of the goal in the middle, Rama saved the whole person, and could only look to the left side in despair, sure enough, no miracle happened, the ball still flew into the goal.

Millwall led PSG by two goals in the first half to make it four to one on aggregate.

At half-time, Aldridge was still sounding the alarm for his players in the dressing room and could not relax in the second half.

Paris Saint-Germain started the second half with another dangerous attack, but they seemed to be lacking in luck today, with a one-and-a-half-piece shot from Leonardo bounced off the post.

Aldridge replaced Larsson with Ballack in the 70th minute, leaving Ballack and Makelele in a back two, with Nedved free to move up front.

With a change in their defensive footing, Millwall kept the score 2-0 until the end.

At the end of the game, the whole team ran to the coach's box, whether it was the substitute or the coaches of the coaching staff, everyone hugged together to celebrate the victory.

"Millwall reached the final in their first European appearance, and next month's European Cup Winners' Cup final in the Netherlands will be the pinnacle of the showdown between Millwall and La Liga giants Barcelona!" (To be continued......)
