Real Madrid equalised, and they were able to settle down mentally.

With more than an hour to play, they gradually became familiar with the rhythm of the pitch, especially as they began to give up on the initiative and fought back from the wings, and the foundation of Capello's Italianate defence that he laid for this Real Madrid side last season came into play.

Millwall's attack is still ferocious and powerful, their passing runs are pleasing to watch, and the attack is very fluid, especially the sudden acceleration in front of Real Madrid's threatening area shows the maturity of a team.

However, today's forward line seemed to have forgotten to bring their shooting boots, and the number of shots on goal was far ahead of Real Madrid's Millwall, who were never able to score a second goal.

Nedved and the first half of the goal of the run is the same, once again in the back of the good point in the back of the good point in place, only this time he ran to the right side, Shevchenko to cover him, Larsson on the other side of the pass, Real Madrid consciously noticed Nedved, but the initiative was half a beat behind, or let Nedved grab the point, but he no longer had the angle of the shot, Ilgena and Sanchis blocked him one by one, Nedved did not choose to shoot this time, but knocked back to Shevchenko, who ran out of the space and was unmarked, Ukrainian nuclear warheads shoot angrily!

He still consciously went to the other side of the goal, and Ilgena definitely couldn't save!

Bang!

Once again, the ball hit the post and bounced off the line.

Shevchenko knelt on the ground after the shot and blamed himself, but he didn't get the ball into the goal.

Nedved walked over and pulled him up, didn't say anything and prepared to scramble for a corner.

Pirlo's corner landed in a good spot, but Nedved was beaten by Hierro in the scramble. Real Madrid's header clears.

Raul gets the ball outside the box. Then without looking, he sent the ball to the left wing.

Carlos repeats the previous scene. Soaring forward with the ball, Real Madrid counterattacks!

This counterattack was played quickly and accurately, Carlos passed the midfield with a long diagonal pass, and Makelele and Capdevilla, who were dragged behind the most, doubled to attack Morientes, but the tall Morientes grabbed the ball in the case of the bag, and originally grabbed the high ball to land, and Claude Villa met Morientes and must be at a disadvantage. And Morientes didn't stop the ball and went straight to the header.

The follow-up Mijatovic met the ball and then went straight to Morientes, and this combination made the Millwall defense completely lose their temper, because Mijatovic passed a straight pass over the top, and Morientes turned and squeezed Capdevilla away, and headed directly into the goal against the harassment of Makelele.

Bang!

The ball hit the far post as well, but it bounced into the gate.

Real Madrid relied on counterattacks to simply and brutally reverse the score!

The Real Madrid fans at the Amsterdam Athletic Stadium all stood and cheered, while the Lions fans were stunned in shock.

This Nima is too unbearable!

Millwall's offensive is very good-looking, and it is simply the pinnacle of four or two thousand pounds.

But Real Madrid reversed the score by going on a rampage unreasonably!

Again, Carlos was a threat on the left, and the counter-attack was played in the style of Italian football. There weren't many attacking players, not counting Raul's pass to Carlos. The whole counterattack was just three people, the side launched an offensive, and the two forwards on the front line played a match, and everything was done in five seconds.

It's not for nothing that Heynckes prefers to use a high striker, and in the face of Millwall's overall defensive line, the "only" weakness of the apparent lack of height, Morientes' natural advantage was maximized.

"Real Madrid reversed the score in the 69th minute of the game, and now they lead Millwall 2-1, in the first 70 minutes, it was Millwall who took the initiative in attack, and they also played very good attacking football, but the football game is not who attacks more fiercely, plays better and seems to determine the winner, Real Madrid seized it with few chances, compared to the several good chances that Millwall wasted in front of goal, if they can score two of those balls that hit the crossbar and the post, I'm afraid that Real Madrid has long run out of chances, and Hall may need to reflect on why he didn't let the team shrink back when he was leading 1-0? Of course, fans and spectators alike want to enjoy a head-to-head battle from start to finish. ”

Aldrich stood on the sidelines with a calm expression, I don't know why, at this moment, there was no panic and loss in his heart.

On the contrary, he was excited!

Did Heynckes teach him a lesson?

No, it doesn't feel that way.

Originally, Millwall's tactic today was to take the extreme route, either I broke down and beat you to the ground, or the space behind me after my pressing attack became a natural corridor for the opponent to counterattack, and the opponent could grasp the opportunity to counterattack, so there was nothing to complain about when conceding a goal.

Even if he loses the game like this, Aldridge has no regrets, and it would be very embarrassing to lose the game with a neutral and conservative tactic.

And the game is not over, Millwall's attack is not that it can't open the situation, but that it is a fraction of a goal difference, as long as it continues to accumulate offensive advantages, the striker can be calmer and improve the quality of his shots, with 20 minutes left, scoring goals is not a luxury.

However, with Real Madrid ahead, will Heynckes make adjustments?

Absolutely.

Heynckes asked Real Madrid's frontcourt players to pick up on the sidelines, and Raul returned to central midfield to harass the opposition in the middle.

Three minutes after the restart of the game, Aldridge saw the changes in Real Madrid, and decisively gestured to the players on the field, and the players understood that under the premise that Real Madrid has more defensive strength than before, their original attack will encounter greater obstacles, which will affect the quality of the attack, so the team's attack needs to be changed slightly.

Real Madrid only need to hold on for 15 minutes and they will lift the European Champions Cup for the first time in 32 years!

Millwall's previous offensive play was a little difficult, the most intuitive was that Pirlo was stuck to Raul and his performance began to decline.

However, Millwall's tactical adjustments played a role in this moment.

Pirlo took the ball and handed it directly to Makelele. Makelle passes back. Elgra gets the ball on the back line. After a one-two with Claude Makelele, he continued to move forward, striding across the halfway line with a meteoric dribble.

Raul was originally targeting Pirlo, but when he saw Elgra rushing forward with the ball from three meters beside him, he gave up Pirlo and went after Elgra.

Is this centre-back dribbling forward with the ball and not afraid of conceding the ball?

As soon as Raul moved, Elgra immediately passed the ball back to Pirlo, who then turned to harass Pirlo, who in turn kicked the ball back to Elguera. It's a two-by-one again.

Claude Makelele dropped back, almost parallel to Southgate, and Andrea Pirlo dropped back after his pass, standing in the defensive midfielder area.

Ergra continued to move forward, and on his side, Karembu ran over to grab his ball, and Elgra split the ball on the side, and Capdevilla took the ball all the way down the wing.

When Karrumbu was helping to defend the wing, Capdevilla crossed the ball in front of the penalty area, and Nedved ran to catch the ball before Redondo, and did not stop the ball and kicked it straight away. The ball went through the entire Real Madrid defence, and Millwall players got the ball in the box!

Real Madrid's players were shocked. It was incredulous to watch the player who ran forward and broke through their backline.

Elgra?

Why the haven't you gone back yet?

The centre-back rushed to this position, don't die!

Panucci rushed into the box at full speed, and Hierro also went to block Elgra's shot, but although Elgra got a good position to shoot, he really didn't dare to shoot, for fear that he would waste a good opportunity to attack.

As Hierro moved towards his right front to compress his shot, Elgra calmly passed the ball to the defensive gap between Hierro and Sanchis.

Trezeguet caught Sanches's attention, but Larsson was left unmarked at the moment and he rushed forward to meet the ball with a slot.

I really don't dare to exert my strength!

I was scared by the beams and the goalposts.

Larsson tried to push the ball into the corner of the goal, not much force, but the angle was tricky, and Ilgner was really powerless this time, the distance was so close that he couldn't reach the ball when he fell to the ground.

Watch the ball go into the corner and get into the bottom of the net.

'Millwall equalised quickly! The one who scored the goal was Larsson! It was an unexpected player who provided him with the assist, centre-back Elgra! Millwall's attack was launched by Elgra all the way from the back line, and in the middle through consecutive one-two combinations to tear apart the opponent's defense, Real Madrid's defenders seemed to have a collective brain, they may have a delusion: Is Elgra crazy? He rushed all the way up and once he was beaten back after conceding a goal, could Millwall's backline withstand it? But we reviewed the whole process of this attack from the panoramic footage replay and found that Millwall played a classic wave of all-offense and all-defense coordination! His role and that of his team-mates were constantly changing as he progressed from Elgra to midfielder, midfielder, and then to midfielder, while Claude Makelle stepped back to take over the role of centre-back, Andrea Pirlo became a defensive midfielder, and Nedved stepped back to take on the role of midfielder after a straight stop, and Millwall was not short of people in various defensive positions even after being beaten back. It was in such a tacit understanding of role reversal that Real Madrid's defense was completely blown up by Millwall! ”

Larsson smiled with relief when he saw the ball roll into the door and the referee signaled that the goal was valid, then ran inside the goal to pick up the ball and run backwards, not expecting to celebrate.

As Larsson ran back with the ball, his teammates ran over to him to give him a high-five, or a simple hug.

With just over ten minutes remaining, Millwall will have to try to score another goal or they will run their fitness limits.

Aldridge didn't celebrate, but wiped the sweat from his forehead, spun around and told the players on the bench to warm up.

He didn't want to play extra time, but now it's 80 minutes and the score is still tied and he has to prepare for extra time.

Elgra stepped forward all the way into the opponent's penalty area, the attack just now was a surprise attack, and it would be very difficult to replicate it, Real Madrid suffered a loss, and it was impossible to be fooled again.

Heynckes also asked the bench players to warm up, and the conflict between him and Suker was mainly due to Suker's fitness problems, but when the game came to this time, Suker would definitely be fine no matter what, ten minutes or overtime.

Mijatovic + Suke + Raul.

This is the Real Madrid forward trident under Fabio Capello last season, switching back and forth between 12 and 21 in attack.

At this time, Heynckes intends to play this combination, and as for the others, they will be comfortable with defense.

Real Madrid took the lead in substitutions, Davao Suker, who can play the violin with his left foot, came on to replace Morientes, and Morientes did not have much of a bright spot other than that goal.

Under the premise of Real Madrid's foothold on defense, Millwall's fitness also began to show problems, and after more than 80 minutes, the youngest Pirlo reached the stage of running out of gas, and Aldridge also made substitutions, replacing Pirlo with Ballack.

After these two substitutions, the game tended to be flat, Millwall replaced the midfield commander, the core of the offensive and defensive transition, so it is necessary to give Ballack a time to adapt, and also according to the previous fast-paced play, once Ballack can not adapt, his mistake in this position will be fatal.

In such a situation, both teams were afraid of conceding goals, and the game was moving towards extra time. (To be continued......)
