Arsenal equalised just before half-time to return to the top of the table.

In the final minutes of the first half, they dropped back and kept the tie until the end of the first half.

There are only 45 minutes left before Arsenal ascend to the throne of the Premier League with an unbeaten league record!

As the players from both sides walked into the tunnel, the live camera captured the Arsenal players being extremely excited, while Millwall's team was not much different from the opening kick-off, with no loss, no frustration and no nervousness.

Because they have faith.

Give them 5 minutes and they can give the world a miracle!

Not to mention 45 minutes?

Even if someone does have an unbalanced mentality under heavy pressure, but seeing Aldrich, their leader, walking at the back of the line with an indifferent face, any tension will disappear.

Aldridge's emphasis on tactical discipline at half-time did not boost morale too much, and instead, in the second half, Millwall needed to be more composed in the game.

After the half-time break, the two sides returned to the field and changed sides to fight again.

From the start of the second half, the whole team was not in a hurry to speed up the tempo, on the contrary, they formed an extreme possession advantage in the midfield!

The Arsenal back line did not dare to rush up to grab, the forward line retreated to press, and whenever Ibrahimovic and Bergkamp were involved in the midfield siege, Millwall would suddenly attack!

From the 50th minute, the pace of the game couldn't slow down all of a sudden!

It turned into an offensive and defensive battle between the two sides.

Because Millwall will also harass wildly in the front court after the strong attack, among which Ronaldo is the most desperate. Do not hesitate to mess up the opponent back and forth. Arsenal did not dare to possess the ball at the back. You can only play forward and attack, and in order to play offensive efficiency, you must play fast and quickly pass through the midfield.

In such a back-and-forth tug-of-war, Arsenal's players definitely consume more energy than Millwall!

Millwall do not deliberately seek counter-attacks, they will establish possession, compress the opposition back in midfield and then attack. In this way, the opponent's frontcourt players retreat deeper, and when the opponent counterattacks again, it is difficult to play an advantage in terms of physical fitness and speed of the switchback run, and the consumption is far beyond Millwall.

In the 59th minute, Aldridge saw that Bergkamp had completely failed to keep up with the pace of the defense, and Van Bronckhorst was clearly unable to improve his speed in a counterattack. He immediately dispatched troops and replaced Ronaldo on the field.

Let's be honest. Ronaldo is also almost unable to run, the game is only 60 minutes, but at both ends of the offensive and defensive ends, Ronaldo's running is the most intense, and it is also the most consumed in the Millwall team.

"In the 60th minute, Millwall took the lead in substitutions, Ronaldo went down, and the veteran Larsson came out!"

Ronaldo hugged Larsson on the pitch, and then Aldridge high-fived Ronaldo and said to him: "Well done today, you should be proud of it." ”

Ronaldo shook his head with a heavy face, the team was not yet ahead, he also had three shots on goal and missed the ball in the goal, although he had an assist, but he was not satisfied with his appearance.

Arsene Wenger frowned deeply on the sidelines.

Millwall made a substitution in 60 minutes?

this

Aldrich's expression was intriguing.

Arsène, do you dare to fight me?

Do you dare? Do you dare?

60 minutes is not a regular substitution.

At the very least, unless there is a fitness problem with the players, it is generally not a regular time to make changes tactically.

Because there is still half an hour left in the game, there can be a lot of things that can happen in half an hour, and the more time there is, the greater the probability of accidents happening.

The position of Arsenal's side is also very clear: either keep the draw or continue to maintain the attacking point to increase the probability of scoring.

However, with half an hour to go, Wenger did not dare to make a premature decision.

In other words, what if you decide to hold on now, what if you concede the goal after 15 minutes? Arsenal wanted to fight back but had no troops, and the substitution card was to play one less card.

Wait, see.

At least, in the tug-of-war of the past, it looks like Millwall and Arsenal are in a delicate balance.

On-the-spot command, Aldrich is the best at preemptive strikes!

Millwall had already completed several phases of the Armageddon.

Whatever the scoreline, now, from the 60th minute, Millwall's real killer is about to come in!

This killer feature is to use the first 60 minutes of the game as a foreshadowing to create the most favorable environment for the last 30 minutes.

Larsson's appearance was a signal.

Millwall, changed!

In a tug-of-war in the early stage, Arsenal may have thought Millwall had broken out on the attack.

If so, then they couldn't be more wrong.

Aldridge is sacrificing a Cristiano Ronaldo today to consume the entire Arsenal team!

Whether it was Cristiano Ronaldo in the first half, he swooped down to play deep, intimidating Arsenal and making his formation retreat deep enough, or the tug-of-war in the second half, he was trying to wear down the opponent.

And the targets are also very obvious, Arsenal's Pire, Ljungberg, Bergkamp.

They have to defend back, and if they don't defend they can't stop Millwall at all.

And when Larson came on the field, all the players on the field at Millwall completely exploded, burning all the energy in their bodies!

Ronaldo and Nedved swapped positions, and Ronaldo moved to the midfield position, causing Vieira and Silva's scalps to tingle.

The Brazilian's first-half goal made them afraid to lose their defensive position.

Left, center, right, three directions, Xiao Luo may erupt into a huge threat!

However, after Bergkamp's defense couldn't keep up, Xiao Luo didn't have to care about the opponent behind him to harass him, and concentrated on attacking head-on!

Just when Wenger was struggling with whether it was time to make the final decision and firmly hold on to the draw, the situation on the field changed abruptly!

In the 64th minute, the pace of Arsenal's counter-attack dropped significantly, and Ljungberg was completely isolated on the right flank, and then was tackled by Ashley Cole, who quickly passed the ball to Alonso, who ran forward in midfield. The latter kicked the ball. Bergkamp was not given the opportunity to harass him at all.

Ball. At Ronaldo's feet, and behind him, Bergkamp was still ten meters away from him, and it seemed that he could no longer chase the defense.

Ronaldo faced Silva and Vieira, with Vieira a little further back as Ashley Cole didn't come up and Nedved could be blocked by Lauren and Campbell. Vieira, on the other hand, provided another layer of protection in front of the penalty area behind Silva, and also concealed Henry with Toure.

Ronaldo dribbled two steps to the left, not to break deep, but to draw Silva over, and after Silva had moved two steps, Ronaldo pushed the ball sideways to the right.

Silva turned his head to look, only to see Schneider striding up and cutting straight into the ribs of the penalty area.

Ronaldo deliberately passed by Silva and headed towards the middle. Silva was afraid that he would miss the rushing Ronaldo if he went to block Schneider, and he kept retreating. Trying to compress the midlane space.

And Xiao Luo's running route, with Silva, faintly blocked Vieira's interception line to Schneider's side!

No one noticed that there was a faint snicker on the corner of Xiao Luo's mouth at this moment.

Schneider, on the other hand, did not stop when he dribbled to the line of the penalty area, he did not pass the ball and rushed all the way forward.

In front of him, he has Larsson, who is flanked by Van Bronckhorst and defender Toure.

The Arsenal backline was on the lookout for Larsson's anti-offside position, fearing that they would be exposed to Schneider for a run, and then Schneider passed the ball to Larsson and had a shot in the box.

However, Schneider cut into the ribs of the penalty area almost like a gust of wind, and the ball disappeared at his feet, and 1 second later, it returned to his feet!

In the distant stands, the fans couldn't see what was going on!

Schneider rushed forward, passed by Larsson, the ball was stopped by Larsson, and Larsson then slammed the ball into the box with his heel, which was seamless, and the Arsenal defenders didn't keep up at all, and the rhythm change was wonderful! Schneider, the anti-offside position was successful, a single knife! Shot! ”

The attack was simple but dazzling, and it looked like Schneider was about to hit Larsson, who was forcefully stopping the ball in front of Schneider.

However, there was no conflict between the two, Schneider and Larsson passed by, and at the same time as the past, the ball returned to him!

Parallel to the right of the penalty spot, Schneider volleyed with the outside of his instep, and the ball flew to the inside of the far post of the goal with an inconspicuous arc!

Lehmann saved, his palm failed to touch the fast ball, he turned his head back in horror at the same time, and could only see the post out of the corner of his eye, but he didn't see the ball, he knew in his heart: the ball, in the goal!

Highbury, the Lion Champion is once again the protagonist!

They created an overwhelming cheer and a deafening roar!

"30-year-old Schneider! Hero! Hero Schneider! He helped Millwall to take the score out! Millwall were at the top of the Premier League table again in the 65th minute, 25 minutes to go! ”

"It's wonderful, Millwall's wide attack has been crazy and dazzling this season, and Larsson has provided an assist shortly after he came on! He's got a staggering 30 assists in the season! ”

Arsene Wenger was struck by lightning, and the moment he saw Schneider rushing forward, he thought of a lot of details.

In the first 60 minutes, Schneider has always been decent, on the offensive end, on his side, the strongest sense of zài in the attack is Ronaldo, and Schneider, he is not as conspicuous as in the previous game, why?

Waiting for the right moment?

If he didn't find a good chance in 60 minutes of the game, why did he come up at this time?

Of course, it's not about waiting for the right time, or reserving your physical strength and exploding at this time!

Arsenal's defensive strength in the front court has declined, although it is not particularly obvious, but with the outbreak of Millwall, the gap has been widened all of a sudden!

Wenger was annoyed, Aldridge's overall strategic deployment of this game can be described as a link after link, and he has been carefully prepared and planned for a long time!

This caused him to panic, and he was not sure if his next sudden decision would also be expected by Aldrich and thus used by Millwall!

Schneider didn't go on a wild run to celebrate, there was still time for the game, and he couldn't waste a shred of energy doing things that didn't help the team's victory.

The celebration is beautiful, but the victory is the most real.

Like the stars, Schneider was surrounded by Millwall in the Arsenal penalty area.

But it's less than 3 seconds.

Because Ronaldo and Vieira had a verbal altercation outside the penalty area.

Vieira was blocked by Ronaldo in that defense, and pushed Ronaldo down in a hurry, and it happened that before Schneider scored, Ronaldo reprimanded Vieira twice, seeing that the team lost the ball, Vieira did not hold back his temper, so he and Ronaldo verbally pinched.

Nedved walked over and parted from Ronaldo with the demeanor of a big man, and walked back with his arms around him without saying a word, only turning back to Vieira and making a gesture of pressing his hand before leaving.

I don't know if it's to calm Vieira down, or if the subtext tells him: Don't mess with us! (To be continued......)
