Thanks for the reward of "Death of the Thief"! ――

Martin O'Neill and Aldridge are not career partners, because they have never worked together and are not good friends in life, but if they meet, in addition to opposing each other during the game, before or after the game, they will always get together to talk about positive topics related to football, football tactics trends, changes in the roles of some players on the field, express opinions on a key game, and express their opinions from different perspectives, often both of them can benefit a lot.

Although Leicester City may not be called Millwall's bitter master, but when the two teams meet, O'Neal's team will always put Millwall in a difficult situation.

Don't look at O'Neal's conservative anti-counter-tactics every time he plays against Aldridge, and even Leicester City is almost all the way to the black with defensive counterattacks all year round, but there are not many teams in England that play defensive counter-attacks, some are relegated, and some are ranked behind O'Neal's team, there are more teams with richer and better lineups than Leicester City, but the record is not as good as Leicester City, which just reflects O'Neill's coaching ability.

When the two met again on the Lion's Den Stadium, Aldridge smiled at O'Neill and said, "Do you want to snipe me again today?" ”

O'Neill pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said calmly, "I feel like it's going to be dangerous today." ”

"Arsene Wenger, Ferguson, Vialli are here, they will be the same as you said, shouldn't there be a sense of crisis when they come here?"

O'Neill looked depressed, shook hands with Aldridge and walked back to the dugout.

Aldridge gave up after teasing his opponent, and he also walked back to the dugout, standing and directing the game.

After the start of the game, Aldridge saw Leicester City's formation and unsurprisingly raised an eyebrow.

In the past few years, Leicester City have played Millwall, and the defensive formation has been difficult to interpret with the regular 442, 4141 and the like.

It's exactly what it looks like 631.

The back four compresses the penalty area, and the two-sided forwards can go down the bottom or extend the area on the side in the top corner of the box. There must be three crazy interceptions in front of the penalty area, and there is an offensive fulcrum Tony in front, as long as he plays a counterattack, Tony first controls the ball, and then the opponent plays a unilateral flying wing counterattack, Tony divides the ball again and continues to attack.

The reason for this defensive stance is that even on the counter-attack. The defensive formation at the back is still static, with only one full-back stepping forward to participate in the attack, plus Gudjohnsen also following up, and the counterattack relies on three people. At the very least, the backline will not be exposed by the premise of the formation or the number of defenders who will be caught by Millwall and tear through the defence.

In the past, Millwall's individual ability was still lacking, facing Leicester City, which has strong tactical discipline, the one-on-one success rate is good, but one-on-two is completely unable to parry, if more offensive forces are invested, and in turn the opponent counterattacks, the probability of conceding goals increases.

But Millwall today. The individual ability is very strong, and the attacking players in the front court are not a problem with each one-on-one, as long as the defense line shows enough space, it can also be done in a small area to get rid of the opponent in a row.

Leicester City's players were so limited in their ability that they made up for it with tactics and were beaten in front of goal in the first 20 minutes of the first half.

Pirlo's long-range shot was blocked by a defender and almost flew into the back of the net.

Henry took the ball with his back and got rid of it, then turned and shot with his feet, which was lifted over the crossbar by the goalkeeper with one hand.

Nedved's header from inside the box bounced off the crossbar.

Larsson was tripped in the box and the referee signalled no foul.

After 20 minutes, Leicester City failed to fight back. Millwall's marking of Toney was very successful today, with Materazzi holding out Toni and failing to allow a single high ball and Makelele blocking a pass on the ground in front of him.

Twenty minutes later, Aldrich touched his nose and gritted his teeth casually, as if he were about to open his bloody mouth.

Millwall continued to penetrate the ball into the Leicester City penalty area, compressing and compressing the opposition defence. Almost the opposing defender almost blocked the goal parallel to the goalkeeper.

The situation changed dramatically, Nedved didn't move forward after winning the ball in front, but turned back to the left back, and Zambrotta had a large space in front of him. He slapped the horse, stopped the ball, flicked forward, adjusted the foot, and shot from a distance!

Martin O'Neill smashed the mineral water bottle on the sideline and yelled at the players on the field: "Before protecting the top corner of the penalty area, they are covering the long-range shots of the players who are inserted in the back!" ”

Bang.

Zambrotta, who had plenty of time to choose the angle and force, was blocked before the long-range shot entered the penalty area, and directly suffocated a Leicester defender, the ball bounced out and fell at the feet of Pirlo, the opponent immediately came up and forced frantically, Pirlo pointed the ball to the right front, Schneider killed unexpectedly, almost the same as Zambrotta, stopped the ball, dialed it, and chose a good angle to shoot a long shot.

His kick was not deliberately selective, the force was moderate, but the angle was extremely tricky, and the banana ball flew towards the goal from right to left with a strong spin.

Looking from the front, I feel that the goalkeeper can definitely save the ball for the first time, but when the ball flies in front of the goal, the goalkeeper pounces horizontally, and the hand seems to be getting farther and farther away from the ball, and then I see Schneider's long-range shot actually hit the side netting, of course, the ball went in! Hit the side netting inside the goal!

"Schneider's level world wave! How the hell did the ball go in? That arc was wonderful, it was definitely the best goal of the round, absolutely! ”

Schneider didn't celebrated after scoring, but, like Zambrotta, trotted to the Leicester player who had been smothered in the chest by Zambrotta's long-range shot, and the player didn't get up for a long time, which was very worrying.

Zambrotta knew how powerful his long-range shot had been, and the loud sound of the shot alone was enough to show the force of the collision.

Leicester conceded a goal, but Millwall did not celebrate, and they gathered around the player who had fallen to the ground along with the Leicester players.

The team doctor quickly entered the field, and then not only called a stretcher, but also asked the ambulance to wait outside, and after the team doctor's preliminary diagnosis, the player may have broken ribs

Zambrotta patted the man on the shoulder and whispered an apology, while the rest of the Millwall team verbally wished him well.

Aldridge and O'Neill exchanged two words on the sidelines, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was an accident just now, if Zambrotta was allowed to shoot at that player. You may not be able to hit it.

O'Neill was a little frustrated, and said to Aldridge: "That's how you arranged your tactics before the game today, right? In the first 20 minutes, he pressed the penalty area, and when there was space in front of the penalty area, two full-backs stepped in and shot from distance. ”

"Well, so to speak."

"What if you can't score a goal from a distance?"

"Then you can't always watch my players shoot from distance, can you?"

"Alas, hard power."

O'Neill didn't ask anymore, in fact, Aldrich's tactics were not peculiar.

Personal breakthroughs. Set-pieces, long-range shots.

O'Neill has asked players to compress the defense, not giving the opponent room to break through, the opponent can pass a player, but may not be able to break through continuously, and pay attention to the action when defending. Try not to give set-pieces to the opponent.

In the past, when the difference in strength was not so big, especially when Millwall's attacking players were not as strong as they are now, it was rare to give the opponent such a loose space for long-range shots.

It's just that now the opponent's individual ability is stronger, so more people are needed when defending, and the lateral protection in front of the penalty area is naturally weakened.

This is the gap in hard power, but O'Neill will not feel that whoever leads this Millwall team can beat him. Just kneading together those players who attack in the front court to form a stronger fighting force than expected is not something that everyone can do.

Aldridge said that if he has a good deck of cards, even if he wins O'Neal, he will not have the feeling of winning, if the attitude of the two teams is the same, he can't win, he would rather quit and not do it, but the other party will be determined to defend. With less than 25 minutes now in the making, Millwall can enjoy the moment with a complete overrun and a successful attack.

When the team fell behind, O'Neal made a substitution, and then asked the players to try to take the initiative and be a little more aggressive about the attack.

However, this group of Leicester City players has been defending all year round. Defend against the back, defend against the end to the end, let them take the initiative to attack, but everyone is at a loss.

Especially in the face of Millwall's huge attacking pressure. They can't help but go back and defend well, and the offense is still the same old routine.

The defense depends on us, and the offense looks for Tony!

Thirteen minutes later, Ronaldo was dragged to the ground after dribbling past a defender in the box, and this time the referee blew for a penalty.

The Leicester players didn't protest either, and O'Neill sighed and sat back in the dugout, looking at the pitch with a hint of helplessness.

Millwall was so strong that he felt too much to fight.

He doesn't blame the players, the strength is that Cheng dù, almost at the same level as the top three in League One, in other words, the value is not far from the value of the players from the relegated teams in the United Kingdom.

If you can't prevent Xiao Luo, you can only get started.

Larsson stood in front of the penalty and slotted home without pressure as Millwall took a 2-O lead in the first half, a scoreline that remained until half-time.

In the second half, Aldridge still made substitutions in the 6o minute, replacing Larsson and Ronaldo, and bringing Glen Charles and Ramour on the field.

In the lead, Aldridge signaled for Pirlo to master the rhythm and hone the skills of the "metronome", this improvement of the technical level depends not only on himself, but also on the cooperation of his teammates, he is slow, his teammates are slow, he is fast, his teammates must be fast, especially if he suddenly rises or falls, if his teammates cannot understand his intentions, then it will not be effective.

Ramour, who has scored in two consecutive games, was excited when he came on the pitch, but in today's game, he could not let Aldridge continue to see his shining side, on the contrary, let Aldridge see his flaws.

In the 8o minute of the game, Aldridge called Ramour in front of him and said lightly: "If you are not in the same rhythm as your teammates, then you have to find your own problems and remember the tactical requirements I asked you when I replaced you!" ”

Ramour wants to score again, so he's excited, but when Pirlo starts to control the tempo, he moves out of that rhythm, and when he touches the ball, he picks up the tempo, whether his team-mates are slow or fast, he's like a bull bent on breaking through the opposition's door.

Aldridge reminded him before replacing him, but he didn't do it, which means that his tactical discipline needs to be improved.

After being taught a lesson by Aldridge, Ramour returned to the field to calm down, and his cousin became better and better, at least in the same rhythm as his teammates, and finally, before the end of the game, Glen Char's long-range shot from outside the box was saved by the goalkeeper, and Henry followed up with a follow-up shot to lock the score at 3:o.

Millwall lead the standings with four consecutive league wins in the new season.
