Chapter 636 - Pressed on the whole line
The game lasted 65 minutes, the score of the two sides was still 1-3, Millwall was two goals behind, considering that there were only 25 minutes left, many media reporters began to excitedly draft a draft.
'Millwall have a great record and they have extended their unbeaten run in the league to 63 rounds, but no team is undefeated, even if they are as strong as Millwall, they will lose one day. The only thing they didn't expect was that their loss would happen at Neil Stadium. ”
'But maybe it's good news because for Millwall, a league defeat is nothing but a complete relaxation and they can perform better in the future without the pressure of being unbeaten.'
This is Millwall's pro-media outlets.
More media reporters, reporting style is on the 'schadenfreude' side, or 'falling into the ground'--
'It's hard to imagine Tottenham beating Millwall away from home, but that's the way it is in football, anything can happen. Tottenham were in crazy form, every player was eye-catching, attacking and defending to suppress Millwall, and they made Millwall feel like they couldn't handle it......"
'Millwall are very strong, but they are so proud, they think they can sweep the Premier League, but any team in the Premier League, you can say that you are very strong, they want to dominate the Premier League, it is impossible to do it.
"The flamboyant level of leading the team is worthy of recognition, but he is not the god of Millwall, and he is just an ordinary coach, and Joel's Tottenham Hotspur knocked him to the dust!"
"After this game, Millwall's unbeaten golden body has been broken, and their future league results will definitely be affected, even if they still have a points advantage, they may not be able to survive until the end of the season, and then Arsenal and Manchester United have a chance."
"This may be the beginning of Millwall's downfall......"
The game seemed to be as the media reporters thought, several waves of attack and defense ended, the score was still not rewritten, but the time had reached 75 minutes.
At this point, many were more certain that Tottenham could win.
The camera points to the edge of the field.
Even if Tottenham is the leading side, Zhang Yang is also the protagonist of the stadium, if he makes any moves, the camera will immediately point out, Zhang Yang has been standing on the sidelines, and he has not moved for a long time, but now he is shouting at the pitch again.
"It's hard to hear what he's shouting, but it's probably motivating the players, right?" Paul Scott speculated.
Zhang Yang was indeed motivating the players, he shouted, "Be positive, attack!" ”
This sentence doesn't make much sense.
Zhang Yang just wanted to motivate the players, because at the same time, the football was under the control of Livermore, who was slowly moving forward with the ball in the middle line.
Livermore rarely dribbles the ball.
Tottenham's players know Livermore, they know that Livermore is not good at possession, and Janas is forcing Livermore to pass the ball.
This time Livermore didn't pass the ball, and he suddenly started to accelerate forward.
Janus was very surprised, it would be too late to make any more moves, even if Livermore's speed was not fast, but the explosiveness was still there, and he was directly left behind.
Livermore dribbled the ball and it was difficult to attract Tottenham's attention, but Jokola still quickly made up for it, and Janas went back and forth, forcing Livermore to pass.
If he doesn't pass the ball, he'll be shut out of the front and back.
At this time, Livermore suddenly pushed the ball forward, and then rushed quickly, almost squeezing Zokola, and chased the ball with difficulty.
He continued to move forward.
After chasing two steps, he suddenly waved his right foot.
"Don't let him shoot!"
Livermore's performance was so surprising that he took the ball to 30 yards from goal, even if it was still far away, but Livermore was already a threat in that position, and Tottenham suddenly became very nervous.
Without hesitation, Jokola shoveled over.
"This is your chance!"
Zhang Yang is waiting for a certain player's individual performance, whether it is a striker or a midfielder, as long as there is an individual performance, and then he can complete the goal, it will definitely boost the morale of the player.
Think about it......
When the players see a player who relies on individual play to score the ball with difficulty, will they still lose their fighting spirit? They will feel very ashamed that their teammates are doing so well and they don't work hard.
When the time comes, the team will be scrappy.
Even if you can't tie the score in the end, as long as you can get the team's fighting spirit up and let the players know that in the game, you should give your best to perform, and the loss is completely worth it.
Fighting spirit is a big problem that lasts all season.
The moment he used 'walk the talk', Livermore felt very good, a bit like a deaf eye, he noticed Jokola's tackle, almost a technical jump to dodge, and instantly kicked the ball to the left, and then when it landed, Livermore took two steps, chased after it and swung his right foot along the rhythm.
At that moment, he was sure he could kick the ball into the corner.
"Bang!"
After a shocking muffled sound, the ball burst from the grass and instantly rushed towards the Tottenham goal.
Paul Robinson stood in front of goal, thinking that Jokola would foul and give a free kick one moment ago, and at that moment he was about to face a heavy long-range shot.
Livermore's shot was almost thirty metres from goal.
Robinson had plenty of reaction time, and he also knew that Livermore's shot would be very powerful and had to be dealt with seriously, but he didn't expect that the angle of the ball would be so tricky, he tried hard to pounce, but in the end he still didn't save, and could only watch the football fly into the bottom corner of the goal.
"The ball went to ——!!"
"Livermore!! A long-range shot from the perimeter! Livermore scored the second goal to help Millwall catch up on a point. ”
"2 to 3!"
"Livermore used this goal to show everyone that the game wasn't over yet! Millwall still has time, one goal, no longer an absolute gap! ”
Livermore scored a lot of goals, but this one was special, it was a chance he created, a goal he scored alone, and he felt so excited that he couldn't help but hug his teammates, and he fell to his knees on the grass and raised his arms in celebration.
Many teammates were shocked.
They were shocked by Livermore's performance, but also shocked by Livermore's fighting spirit, so far many players, even if they are still playing seriously, feel that there is little hope of equalizing, the opponent Tottenham Hotspur performance is indeed very good, they also feel that the team is time to lose.
This 'take it for granted' mentality has affected Millwall's overall performance.
It doesn't matter if one player thinks like this, many players think like this, and it will greatly affect the fighting spirit.
But this is normal.
Millwall's results are very good, but no team can go unbeaten all the time, it's normal to lose one game, the players feel that it will be this game, and some of them even feel relaxed, because if you lose the game, you won't be under pressure, otherwise you will have to face 'setting a new record' every game, the pressure is too much.
"It's time to lose...... too"
Losing now is not unacceptable for Millwall, but losing in the league can be accepted by many players.
When they saw Livermore's hard work, a man who was not good at dribbling and passing, looking for opportunities and completing shots on his own, they were very shocked.
And also...... Guilt.
Many players look back on their performance with a bit of shame because they could have done better.
"I should work hard too!"
"Why do you have to lose? It's good that we've been winning! ”
"It's like the boss said, don't care about the unbeaten record, the most important thing is to play every game hard, the record is the matter of the club and the team, as an ordinary player, just play seriously."
"I should have been more serious!"
“……”
After Millwall's goal, there was a brief time to celebrate, with Luca Toney consciously holding the ball to the centre circle before the team restarted.
They are still one goal down but time is running out and they have to hurry up and try to equalise.
Soon the game resumed.
Just when most people thought that Millwall had little hope, Tottenham would definitely be able to pull off an upset, beat Millwall and end their unbeaten run in the Premier League, but now the result is full of uncertainty, a goal gap is too small, even a chance play by one player is enough to change the scoreline.
The next step is to see how the players on both sides perform.
Zhang Yang returned to his seat and watched the game carefully, hoping that Livermore's performance could set an example for others and let them know that they should work hard and devote themselves more seriously to the game.
But then Tottenham were still very good, they were dangerous in attack, they were very tight defensively, Millwall wanted to score but couldn't find a chance, and at the same time, they had to focus part of their efforts on defense, so the game was a bit tough.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
In the closing stages of the game, many felt that Millwall had no chance, "Although Livermore did well and scored two goals individually, they were still behind Tottenham. Millwall were in form at the end of the day, but Tottenham were on the better side. ”
'If Millwall lose, their unbeaten run will be fixed at 63 games.'
"They should be satisfied."
"63 games unbeaten, a fantastic statistic, it's a great achievement to remember for decades. I don't know if any team will be able to surpass them in the next few decades, but with the current development of the five major leagues, especially the development trend of the Premier League, the competition will definitely be more fierce in the future, and it will be even more difficult to create an unbeaten record......"
In the last three minutes of the game, Zhang Yang stood on the sidelines again, because there was no goal in the 'foresight' picture, in other words, if the game continued, Tottenham would beat Millwall to win.
Zhang Yang walked to the sideline and made a gesture of pushing forward with both hands.
This action is obviously to strengthen the attack, and in the understanding of Millwall players, it is not as simple as 'strengthening the attack', but 'pressing on all fronts'.
Last Stand!
This season, Millwall rarely suffered from a backward situation, and only lost one game in the Champions League, Zhang Yang basically did not do any command, and now there is a 'full press' command, and some players have not reacted.
"What does Boss mean!"
"It's pressed all over the line! Offensive! Rush on! Have you forgotten to practice this? ”
"Too little to use......"
