Millwall departed for the Toyota Cup in Tokyo, Japan, after finishing the fifth round of the first group stage of the Champions League.

On this trip, Millwall refused all business activities, and went to Tokyo for only one thing: to play.

If the two cannot be coordinated, then it may lead to a decline in business and competition.

Millwall is still behind Manchester United in the league, now is not the time to spend energy on show, Aldridge is still sober-minded, the basis of the club's earning is competitive achievements, without the guarantee of performance on the field, it is impossible to make money.

In Tokyo, Millwall's arrival still caused a huge sensation, in addition to the positive impact of the club's opening to the Far East market over the years, Aldridge's performance on the club also contributed to the England national team.

However, this time Millwall was very faceless, did not attend any business events, even if the invitations were piled up, he did not accept training interviews, and he was completely closed training to prepare for the Toyota Cup.

This year's Toyota Cup opponent is Boca Juniors from Argentina.

The difference in the strength of European and South American teams is widening, because the number of excellent players exported from South America to Europe is increasing year by year, Millwall is full of masters, and the team is very mature, in the face of such an unfamiliar opponent, what they have to do is to use their own strength and characteristics, and take the initiative to control the game.

As for the tactical arrangement of this game, Aldridge asked the team to decide and avoid excessive consumption. This requires the players to be mentally motivated from the start and give their best to try to finish 6o minutes. Or lock in the game with a shorter half-time.

At the Tokyo National Stadium, the Japanese fans at the scene were a little disappointed.

Millwall did not send Ronaldo, but replaced him with Lamor, who played as a midfielder, Klose, Thierry, Larsson, and the forward trident.

And so the troops are arranged. Aldrich is well thought out.

The most important consideration is the characteristics of South American players and European players.

Rising to the advancement of European football, South American players have made an unparalleled contribution.

Their delicate and dexterous skills have an absolute impact on European football, allowing European football's defensive players to improve their skills at the same time.

Some South American players who are mixed in Europe can show their majesty in front of European defenders, and the opponent who plays with their foot skills can't find the north, but in the South American arena, this may not work, South American players. Training, competitions, and every day are encounters with opponents who are dazzling in their skills, and one-on-one defense is more flexible.

However, European players also have their own strengths, which is tactical discipline. Wholeness, teamwork, etc.

Ronaldo's characteristic is to lead the surface from the point and build up an advantage from the local to tear apart the opponent's defense, and his ability to combine the ball is undoubted, but in today's match against the South American team Copa Libertadores champions. His power will actually be weakened, in layman's terms. He can get past his opponent by stepping on two cycles in England, but in the Brazilian league, he may need to pedal four bikes twice to change direction to get past his opponent.

Moreover, in the Champions League played before coming to Tokyo, Xiao Luo played the whole game, so let him take a break.

In this game, Aldridge's targeted deployment was to limit one of Boca Juniors' players in midfield.

The only remaining classical striker in the future: Riquelme!

As for the crazy Palermo on the Boca Juniors frontline, Aldridge doesn't care, the midfielder wins the world, and no matter how awesome the striker is, he will eventually rely on a strong midfield to deliver cannonballs.

The most impressive thing about Boca Juniors in this period is that in the original history of the Toyota Cup, Riquelme had a masterful performance, and Makelele played the wolf bèi.

Of course, this cannot rule out the problem of Real Madrid's own tactical emphasis on offense and light defense, with a bunch of piano players in the front, but few people carrying the piano.

Aldridge stood on the sidelines with his hands in his hands, and the person who played with him today was the master Bianchi, who also stood in front of the coach's bench and watched the game with a stern face.

Soon, he frowned.

Riquelme, the core of the organization, only had 2 touches in front of him after the opening ten minutes!

Millwall's targeted restrictions on Riquelme were clear at a glance, with Ramour and Pirlo both flicking Riquelme back and forth, and one of Riquelme's two touches was knocked to the ground by Ramour's courageous tackle from behind, and the other he easily broke through Pirlo, but was disrupted by Gattuso.

Millwall came prepared!

After 1o minutes, the Millwall team was fully in the game and began to pull the tempo of the game and play their specialties.

The physical and team strengths are starting to become more and more apparent.

Aldridge's chin was slightly raised, South America was gradually distanced by Europe, and there was another very important factor: physical fitness.

Many players who are thriving in South America will always be accused of poor physical fitness after coming to Europe, which has nothing to do with confrontation, it is the most intuitive, in the faster and faster pace of the game, the physical fitness of South American players declines very quickly with the game, and the endless football news is to accuse a South American player of walking on the field, sometimes, this is not a problem of discipline of the player himself, it is that the physical fitness is declining quickly, and he really can't run when he should run.

Fitness doesn't have to be a problem just as the game goes on.

Today, Millwall, who have been crowned the "strongest in Europe", is in the Toyota Cup, dragging Boca Juniors down.

In the non-stop continuous running, Millwall's rhythm does not slow down, Boca Juniors follow this rhythm, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, there is not even a chance to breathe, and then, it can't keep up!

Today, Millwall is all about tight teamwork, kicking the ball out and maintaining a fast tempo, and then forcing the opponent to follow this rhythm in the game.

In the 27th minute, Millwall attacked, Zambrottau went up to receive Pirlo's diagonal pass, after Zambrotta-Ramour-Klose, Klose wanted to go straight to Henry, but the opposing defender took the first step back to successfully intercept it.

Henry immediately pounced on the defender with the ball at his feet. At the same time, Larsson, Klose and Ramour also blocked the ball in front of him through guò running, and the ball route on the left and right flanks. As a result, he could only break the siege with his big feet.

Southgate rushed forward to head the ball to Pirlo in front, Pirlo then knocked the ball to Schneider from the right, Schneider passed straight to Larsson who pulled the side, Larsson then passed to the forward Ramour, who kept the ball straight into the left ribs of the penalty area, Klose failed to get the ball, and was successfully cut off by the opposing defender.

Millwall used the same defensive tactics again. forced the opponent to clear the siege with a big foot, and he didn't even dare to pass back to the goalkeeper.

This time the ball was cleared by Gattuso, who passed to Zambrotta, who observed and passed to Klose, who dropped back to Lamor, who gently crossed diagonally to the right front. Pirlo, who cut forward, stopped the ball and picked up a cross.

In the penalty area, Larsson and Henry's cross-run confused the opposing defender's line, Pirlo's cross seemed to be for Henry, but Henry covered Larsson after attracting the attention of the defender, Larsson cut diagonally into the middle of the box and took a step forward to the left in the direction of the ball rolling, and then passed the ball back to the other side when the goalkeeper attacked. Henry, who had made a roundabout, was already unmarked and easily pushed the ball into the empty net.

Millwall's attack this time, from the offensive segment, in fact, three waves of attacks with the same rhythm did not give the opponent time to breathe and adjust, the first two offensive routines were point-to-point. For the last critical blow, both Pirlo and Pirlo provide a change. There is also the credit of his clever selection of passes and the running of the two strikers, Boca Juniors still failed to withstand under heavy pressure and announced the loss of the city gate.

Bianchi watched his team concede a goal on the sidelines and suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

Millwall Young avoided the weaknesses and played a kick today, tearing apart the Boca Juniors defence with teamwork, excellent off-ball running awareness, plus the physical advantage of the players, which is their strength, and deliberately avoided one-on-one with Boca Juniors.

One-on-one, European players and South American players, obviously not superior, especially in the case of offensive and defensive collisions, the former itself technology is not a specialty, the latter in the local league and continental competition encountered opponents are each good at foot skills, this simple frontal defense, they are not only used to, but also tempered a stronger technique, but the defense does not only rely on technology, key prediction and defense awareness, teamwork, in this regard, they and the top European defensive players are still a big gap.

Millwall broke the deadlock and scored.

Aldridge gestured to the players from the sidelines.

Tactics, change.

After Boca Juniors restarted the game, Millwall now stopped pressing them, the defence dropped back, and the positions of Klose and Thierry Henry changed.

What is this for?

Shameless defensive counterattack!

Bianchi, who had the nickname of the Governor, turned his head to look at Aldrich, who had changed to a two-handed pocket position.

Europeans always take the trouble to say that South Americans are treacherous and cunning.

But the young coach of the Wild Lion in front of him, whose record in European football is enough to shine through the ages, has perfectly used his treacherous and cunning tactics in the game!

Aldridge inadvertently felt Bianchi's gaze, he didn't look at the other party, he lowered his head slightly, the corners of his mouth were raised, and the arc was not obvious.

Boca Juniors are behind in the score, and must increase their attacking efforts, Millwall is not afraid of the opponent's attack, due to Riquelme's own position, Millwall can still exert more defensive pressure on Riquelme even if he plays defensive counterattacks.

Eight minutes later, Millwall doubled the lead with a whirlwind strike.

Klose received Schneider's long pass in the center circle and knocked it to Henry on the left without turning, Henry dribbled the ball on the left side, Klose in the middle, Lamour, and Larsson on the right started up.

But in the process of running at half-time, Klose was obviously stared at, he consciously took away the defenders, Henry came to the penalty area and did not do anything, crossed the middle to the completely unmarked Lamour, who stopped the ball and plugged it straight to the right front, Larsson successfully received the ball in the penalty area against offside, he did not stop the ball, directly crossed the other side of the goal, Henry killed, and easily pushed the ball into the goal.

The two shooters completed one pass and one shot at each other.

In fact, playing defensive counterattacks, Millwall's offense is more powerful.

But there is a premise, that is, the opponent must attack, give them the space to counterattack, like Henry, Larsson, can catch up with their defenders, there are really a handful.

So Aldridge switched tactics when the score was up, Boca Juniors had to attack, and now, instead conceded the second goal.

Aldridge looked at the time, turned around and walked to the coach's box, and said to Cristiano Ronaldo and Villa, who were on the bench today: "You don't have to go into the dressing room at halftime, you warm up outside. ”

When Ronaldo heard this, he was about to run out, but he was grabbed by Villa and smiled bitterly at him: "The boss said that he would go to warm up at halftime, not now." ”
