Chapter 104: I'm just paraphrasing

"0 to 2!"

"David Livermore, it's a long-range shot from the perimeter!"

"Very exciting! The angle is very tricky! ”

"Livermore had two long-range shots in the first half and every one of them was fantastic! He finally broke through the Nottingham Forest gate with a long-range shot! Long-range shooting may be his specialty! ”

Ahead of the game, a lot of media outlets were reporting negative news about Millwall.

Various match analyses believe that Millwall's winning continues to be very small, and many factors support Nottingham Forest's victory, but nearly 80 minutes have passed, Nottingham Forest have not scored a single goal, and Millwall has scored two.

"It's the 80th minute now, and with Millwall leading by two goals, there shouldn't be much suspense in the game!"

Sky Sports commentator Paul Scott's tone is a bit complicated.

He's one of those who thinks Nottingham Forest will win.

Millwall was so brilliant that the most attention-grabbing thing was David Livermore, who was widely regarded by the media as 'completely incapable', who not only did he perform well, but also scored a goal in the second half.

This goal also took the suspense out of the game.

Will Nottingham Forest still stand a chance? Perhaps the die-hard fans still have illusions, but most of the sane people have no illusions: Nottingham Forest have failed to score in the whole game, how can they score two goals in the last time?

No more!

The same was true for the final 10 minutes, with Nottingham Forest pressing on the attack and the whole team trying to get a chance at the end of the game, but they still didn't get a little nervous until the referee blew the final whistle.

Zero to two!

Millwall win away at Nottingham Forest!

Paul Scott summed up the game, "It's over! Congratulations to Millwall on their victory, they got all three points away! It was their seventh win in eight races! It was a surprise for a mid-table team in the Championship, but Millwall did, and if they had done so from the start of the season, they would have been top of the league by now! ”

"I have to mention that their young Chinese head coach, Zhang Yang, has been improving since Zhang Yang came to Millwall. We don't know if Millwall's good results have anything to do with his flamboyant ability, but the worst can be said to be that he brought good luck to Millwall! ”

"And now they're winning again!"

'Millwall's performance in this game was impressive, especially their defender David Livermore, who is a controversial player who is playing under a lot of pressure and it is not easy to perform normally.

"Anyway...... Congratulations Millwall! ”

What Paul Scott said was quite neutral, he did not deliberately denigrate Millwall, and he also evaluated Zhang Yang from a neutral point of view, but there is one thing he must have said wrong.

Is Livermore stressed?

No!

Livermore has a huge heart, and he doesn't care at all what is said in the media.

Before the game, there was a lot of media coverage about him, but most of them were negative about his ability, his future, and some teammates came to comfort him, Livermore said, "I saw that, but they said the truth." ”

"Of course I want them to say something good, but it's better to have a report than nothing......"

"I remember five years ago, there were a lot of media reports about me, and then they didn't say anything, and as soon as they started talking about me, it was much better than before!"

These words are surprising, and many people are a little suspicious that Livermore is not stupid, but 'wise and foolish', but he is a little stupid on weekdays.

"This guy isn't necessarily thinking about anything shady."

Zhang Yang was secretly vigilant.

After the game, Millwall cheered up and down.

After a 12-day league break, it was a great start to the new year, with assistant coach Aldous excitedly saying, "We've won again!" I can't believe it's been so good during this time! ”

"I thought it was going to be tough!"

Aldous's expression on the face of Zhang Yang also became complicated.

In the beginning, he shared Frederick's thoughts, and he felt that Zhang Yang was just luck, not really good, and this victory proved a lot of things.

Millwall played a tactical effect and achieved the desired goal.

This is brought by Zhang Yang.

With a smile on his face, he encouraged every player to perform before remembering to shake hands with the opposing head coach Hart.

It's a courtesy handshake.

Hart looked at Zhang Yang with a complicated expression, and he sighed, "It's really young." When I was your age, I was still thinking about when I would be in the first team and I was in awe of every manager in the team. You've become a manager and you've led the team to great results. ”

"Thank you."

Zhang Yang politely expressed his gratitude.

After that, the two walked side by side to the press conference.

Hart is nearly 50 years old, but instead of 'relying on the old and selling the old' like other coaches, he discussed the topic of changing the tactical formation with Zhang Yang.

On this issue, the two talked very well.

Zhang Yang also took the initiative to ask Hart about the tactical ideas of the Nottingham Forest team, and Hart did not hesitate to share some ideas and experiences.

"Maybe we should talk to a café when we have the chance." As he walked through the door, Hart said with a smile.

"I think so too, but there will be a chance."

After that, the two walked into the venue together.

The press conference venue in the stadium is enough to accommodate two or three hundred people, and the number of reporters in the venue is a little small, but the Championship is like this, and the degree of attention is naturally not as good as that of the Premier League, and the number of reporters who come to interview is a little small.

The rostrum is also huge.

The two are separated from each other, and the questions are of a separate nature, so the gap is revealed.

For the media, the Nottingham Forest manager, who is nearly 50 years old and led the team to lose the game, is far less than the early twenties, and the Millwall manager who led the Millwall team to win the game is attractive.

At the beginning of the press conference, Zhang Yang summed up the game, basically saying things like 'the whole team performed very well', 'I am very satisfied', and 'the victory brings us more confidence'.

He highlighted David Livermore.

'He's a fantastic player, I've always believed in that. Yes, I'm optimistic about him, before the game, I just said that, he did a great job and I'm sure it's going to get better and better in the future! ”

This is followed by free question time.

A reporter immediately stood up and asked a question about Livermore, "Livermore's performance has always been average, it has been like this for several seasons, I think it's just a performance, and it doesn't determine a player's prospects!" What do you think about this? ”

It was a Football Newspaper reporter.

The English Football Newspaper has not been short of David Livermore's news, and much of it is unpleasant to read.

Zhang Yang was also very unhappy, so he replied, "You said it, it's 'you think', what you think is meaningless." I would like you to ask questions of popularity. Next! ”

The reporter's face turned red.

The next reporter to stand up was a tall, thin man who looked good in a suit and tie, but his question made Zhang Yang uncomfortable again, "We saw in the game that Millwall had adopted a new formation and played quite well! "As far as I know, Millwall's training has always been in charge of assistant coaches Mr. Fouryval and Mr. Lawton, so is Millwall's tactical success and win away from home due to the two assistant coaches?" ”

That means to negate the credit of publicity!

Zhang Yang looked at the 'Sven Beast' and asked a little funny, "What an interesting question, then let me ask you, how do you know that Millwall's tactical training is in charge of Aldous and Frederick?" ”

"Isn't it? That's the truth! "Mr. Fowl-Beast's eyes were haughty.

Zhang Yang shrugged, "Of course, you know everything, you can go to be a god, why should you be a journalist?" I don't think you need an interview, you just write down what you know! ”

Laughter rang out from the scene.

Mr. Fowl-Beast felt embarrassed and stared at Zhang Yang through gritted teeth, but finally had to sit down.

The third reporter, from London Sports News, had a simple question: "Some fans think that Millwall's win is luck. What do you think about this? ”

“……”

Zhang raised his brows and furrowed tightly.

If he can bear the questions of the first two reporters, he really can't bear the last question!

Luck?

From his first day in charge of Millwall, he has been seeing media reports saying that 'Millwall won by luck', or that 'he led the team to results by luck', and a series of 'luck theories' have not ended until now.

Zhang Yang was disgusted.

If you say luck once or twice, but he's coached five games and won four of them.

Is this still luck?

Zhang Yang squinted his eyes slightly and looked at the reporter.

Many people could see that his mood had deteriorated, but it made the reporter very excited, and there was nothing easier to get big news than to anger the interviewee.

That's what he thought.

Zhang Yang didn't follow the routine, he opened his mouth very gently, "You just seem to have said, 'Some fans think Millwall wins by luck', my retelling is correct, right?" ”

The reporter nodded, a little unclear.

"Then please name the fans, otherwise I don't think it's a problem. If it's a Millwall fan who has a question about the team's results, I can answer it in person, but if it's just your personal opinion. I'm sorry! After Zhang Yang apologized inexplicably, he said in a joking tone, "By the way, I have also heard some fans say that they say that you and your father are not genetically related, I believe this must be a rumor, but I didn't say it, it was the fans who said it, I just paraphrased it......"
