Kevin Keegan's scalp tingling.

The Magpies' attacking five-man frontcourt faced Millwall's seven-man chain defensive formation, with no room for positional warfare and no room for one-on-one individual ability, and Newcastle United's proud attack was like a fist on an iron plate.

They wore flowers and walked around and changed positions to run back and forth, which was dazzling to see, but it only made them panting and sweating profusely, and it had no practical effect at all.

Defender Robert Lee also stepped forward to participate in the attack, the number of attacking VS defenders was 6 to 7, but it still did not work, Newcastle United played whatever they wanted in the midfield, Millwall never took the initiative to grab, just waited for them to get close to the first 30 meters of the penalty area, and relied on teamwork to resolve their attack.

Keegan stood up and pointed to the player at the back, also a talented player in the Newcastle United squad, John Belisford, full-back!

In an era when English football tactics are still defenders don't attack and forwards don't defend, John Berryford is an assist full-back, which makes him a star on the field, especially with his eye-popping goals every season!

Berryford rushed forward, but the positional battle infiltration could not be penetrated, and his accidental insertion for a long-range shot would be a good means of attacking.

He had just come up and slid past the door with a long-range shot, causing an uproar in the stands.

Aldridge doesn't care, blessings and misfortunes lurk, Newcastle United's attacking frenzy hits this part, it's right in the middle for him!

Millwall have seven defenders and only three attacking in midfield.

And today Aldridge chose to use Schneider, it seems that the player's activity area is not large, Schneider is a wide player, although he can also move close to the middle, but after all, it is not his habitual position.

But that's exactly what Aldrich was trying to do.

Berisford fired another long-range shot and the ball was held firmly by Keller, who as a goalkeeper has limited ability and no potential to expect, but he is very obedient and he has always been able to complete the tasks assigned by the coaches in training.

And the execution of tactics depends on the awareness of the players.

Keller's instilled tactical philosophy is simple, in the goalkeeper position, he is one of the starting points of attack, and in this day and age, such a concept sounds a bit fanciful, the goalkeeper is going to attack?

But Keller doesn't ask, he does.

He's got into the habit of being in the habit of getting the ball in his hands and looking at his teammates' positions as soon as he gets his hands on it, and his ball is on the two wings, so it took him less than two seconds to adjust and then toss the ball to Thuram on the wing.

Thuram stopped the ball and fired a straight ball in front of him, and directly in front of him, Schneider was already running forward at full speed.

The area in front of him, a flat river!

Where did the opposing full-backs go?

Berryford is racing from Millwall's half to the rear!

Schneider rolled the ball in front of him and continued to dribble forward, and when Aldridge saw Newcastle United centre-back Felipe Albert rushing towards Schneider, he smiled and clenched his fists.

Don't look at Kevin Keegan's spring breeze now, he will be a laughing stock five years later, and almost all fans know that Keegan's team has a poor defense!

It's not that Kevin Keegan doesn't have a good defender in his hands, not to mention that in 2000 England had four central defenders Campbell-Adams-Keown-Southgate, just looking at the current Newcastle United back line in the Premier League.

Belgian Albert is a central defender who can be selected as one of the top 30 stars in Newcastle's 100-year history, and his strength is naturally obvious to all, Wharton Barton is a crazy gang product, and Newcastle spent 4 million pounds in the summer to bring in, and the central defender who can reach 4 million pounds in the English transfer market in 95 years can be imagined.

But football is a team sport, and offense needs to be coordinated, and defense is naturally needed.

Millwall is on the counter-attack at the moment, and the number is equal to Newcastle, 3 to 3.

But Albert took the initiative to run over to intercept Schneider, seeing his move, Aldridge knew how bad Newcastle's defense was, there was no tactic at all, and the right move should be to return to the penalty area to form a joint defense and compress Millwall's offensive space.

Albert's rush towards Schneider enlarged the space inside and outside the box, and Schneider unsurprisingly crossed the ball to Larsson before Albert got close.

Newcastle United's defence is like a botched show on a rugby pitch, with defenders chasing down attacking players one by one.

Barton rushed towards Larsson, but Larsson led the ball in one go, leaving Barton behind in the sprint, and at this moment, Watson, who rushed from the other side, fell to the ground and put the tackle in an attempt to shovel the ball at Larsson's feet, but Larsson was smart enough to pass the ball in front of goal.

Goalkeeper Srnisek walked out of the net in a fit of rage, there were no defenders left in front of him!

But the ball rolled to the unguarded feet of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

Solskjaer dribbled to the left in front of him with ease, and the past Srnisek fell to the ground and reached out, but he was embarrassed to reach the ball, and Solskjaer easily pushed the empty goal into the score.

Singing at the Lion's Den Course!

"Ole, Ole, Ole Oh Ole!"

Even the commentator, Martin Taylor, was familiar with the rhythm of Millwall fans as they celebrated their goals.

He excitedly shouted: "Ole, Ole, Ole, Ole, Super Solskjaer!" He started the scoring today, and while most of the credit for that goal went to Larsson, who assisted him, it was a Millwall victory, the result of a team effort, and Newcastle United's defence was a real compliment, and there was no sign of teamwork. Keegan held his head and lowered his head, and Aldridge just smiled and applauded, looking as if he wasn't surprised by the goal. ”

Aldridge doesn't like Millwall's tactics today, and the tactics of individual combat in the future are gradually out of the mainstream, but he is a flexible manager, and when nearly half of the main team is unable to play, he will be a little rigid if he still wants to play attacking football.

Moreover, the three midfielders Ballack, Vieira and Gattuso, in the early stages of their growth, naturally had to hone their defensive skills and sense of teamwork, but this game suppressed the talent of Zambrotta and Thuram to step forward to assist.

In the case of equal numbers, Newcastle United only had three defenders in the second half, and Millwall only had three players to attack, as long as in the counterattack, the individual combat can break through the opponent's defender, then, the single knife opportunity is easy to appear, Larsson got rid of Barton, Watson did not come to intercept, Larsson went to the meeting alone, Watson came to defend, Larsson passed, Solskjaer faced the goalkeeper one-on-one, anyway, the offensive space is unimaginable.

Schneider is both an open spot after the assist from Berryford, and also uses his accurate passing as an offensive tandem.

However, this tactic cannot be used for long, and the midfielders who get used to this tactic will be tired and talented, and may even affect their future career achievements.

Keegan is now riding a tiger, what should I do?

The team is behind!

Millwall is so fucking shameless to play a shrunken defense on their home turf?

He scolded Aldridge in every possible way from the bottom of his heart, but Keegan could only bite the bullet and let the players strengthen their attack.

Withdraw?

There is no way back!

Now there is only one road in Huashan, on!

Millwall's players were so excited that they didn't think too much about the conservative tactics of just a few dozen minutes, and they just felt that Aldridge on the sidelines had a magical glow.

The main four couldn't get up, and they faced the league leaders again, but they just took the lead easily.

The head is simply amazing!

The players of Newcastle United were unwilling, their jerseys were soaked with sweat, and they were busy for most of the game, although they only had a few long-range shots, but Millwall stole a goal on a counterattack, where is the reason?

The most hateful thing is that they are fully armed and show eighteen kinds of martial arts to compete with Millwall, but Millwall has set up a turtle shell array, and the two lines of defense of 7 people are closely connected, overlooking it, if it is painted on the line, it is really a little similar to the turtle shell pattern.

Keegan's midfield adjustments didn't do much, they were nothing more than strengthening the attack.

He was born to attack, he was gorgeous when he played, and he was brilliant when he coached, but he needed space and a stage to attack.

In the second half, Newcastle United became more and more agitated, and began to play unreasonably with individual breakthroughs and long balls, and Millwall's counter-attacks were still extremely efficient, and they almost penetrated the opponent's door on several occasions.

Larsson seemed to have forgotten to bring his shooting boots today, and he wasted a single chance and a half in the second half.

Schneider was gradually being targeted, and Aldrich switched to another card, Kevin Phillips.

Let Phillips be at the front, with Larsson and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer delivering shells to him from behind.

Millwall Formation 4321.

Newcastle United was immediately dealt a heavy blow.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer dropped back to win the ball and played a one-two with Larsson, who then dribbled all the way to the bottom line, almost replicating the first-half goal, and when Barton came to defend him, he crossed the middle to an unmarked Phillips, who deftly slotted home the win for Millwall.

When the full-time whistle blew, Kevin Keegan stayed where he was, looking pale.

Aldridge walked over to him without arrogance and smiled: "I wish Newcastle United a league title this season." ”
