Old Trafford.

Manchester United's battle against Millwall is already in full swing.

The first minute of the game was very exciting, but the excitement was not what flashy offensive was played, but the conflict between the players on the field was very intense, the conflict was led by Millwall, Millwall retreated to deal with the 9o1 formation across the line, and at the same time strengthened the scramble, and the opponent's physical confrontation was very tough, which also led to the game quickly entering the 'hand-to-hand-to-hand' stage.

This took the media and fans by surprise.

Millwall can't send all the main forces, and the kick is passive, but what is the reason why the two sides are about to fall into a 'hand-to-hand fight'? No one could have imagined that the game between Manchester United and Millwall would be a serious conflict, the two teams are just league rivals, not a century-old rival, in addition, both teams are teams with excellent skills, and the collision between each other should be a fierce offensive and defensive collision.

Millwall's defense is like this, not only with crowd tactics, but also with the initiative to provoke confrontation with Manchester United.

The game was like a 'derby'.

This is what the flamboyant demands.

Before the game, Zhang Yang asked the players to come to the field and play tougher, which is very beneficial, one is to close the gap between the two teams, and the other is to prevent Manchester United from playing a wonderful combination.

No matter how good the defensive effect is, if the opponent performs well, he will make a mistake, even if there is 'foreknowledge' and 'words and words' in hand, Zhang Yang also grasps that the team can hold for 90 minutes, because the opponent is not a team with rough skills, Manchester United's strength performance is definitely the top in Europe, it is too strong.

In addition, Zhang Yang also lacked confidence in the team's defense.

For two seasons, the team has played offensive football, whether it is 451 or 351, and the two sets of dual-core play are to suppress the opponent, rather than being suppressed by the opponent to play counterattack.

Now the lineup is still 451, but the main thing is to play defense, the team improves the offense to defense, what kind of performance will there be, no one can say badly, it is very important to strengthen the scramble, it doesn't matter if you don't swing well, let the opponent swing badly.

Only by letting the game fall into a hand-to-hand fighting state can the opponent be affected to the greatest extent, and the crowd defense tactics can achieve the best results.

This is the flamboyant style of play.

Compared to Millwall's season in the Championship, he is no longer a novice in tactics, and he will not lead the team to the competition 'by luck', he relies on more things, and arranges more, and the purpose of each consideration is to have a better chance of beating the opponent.

Manchester United didn't expect their opponents to play like that.

Tough defensively, rough play, plus a 9o1 formation...... Is this really Millwall? But the state of not adapting can not affect the mood of the players on the field, and after encountering tough fights again and again, Manchester United players are also about to toughen.

The competition suddenly became much more intense.

This kind of intensity is definitely not what Ferguson wants to see, because getting caught up in hand-to-hand combat means it is more difficult to get a subtle attack and a little less suitable for the upswing.

Think about it.

When a player has the opportunity to pass a good ball, but encounters the opponent who has just shoveled down him, his head may be congested with blood, and then he will make a mistake when he sees the opponent grab the ball, and then he will foul when he is congested, and a good offensive opportunity becomes an opportunity for the opponent.

In this state of competition, the gap in strength is greatly reduced.

This is one of the reasons why in many derby battles, the weak team has a good chance to beat the strong team.

————

The referee became the busiest man.

Just ten minutes into the game, the referee had 11 timeouts, eight of which were for Millwall and three for United.

The referee didn't quite understand tactics and the like, he thought that Millwall and Manchester United were league rivals, Zhang Yang and Ferguson had always had a bad relationship, and there were often verbal battles in the media.

This is considered the "new century England derby" game, the two teams from the first minute, into hand-to-hand combat mode, think about it is normal, but the referee knows better, the game is a test for his law enforcement, similar games are most prone to controversial decisions, controversial penalties, is definitely not good for the referee's career.

In the 100-year history of football, there have been countless referees who have been sprayed to retire early because of controversial decisions.

Now is the time for the test.

Whether it is Ferguson, Manchester United, or Zhang Yang and Millwall, they are not easy teams to mess with, and his decision cannot be said to be satisfactory to both sides, at least not to cause too much controversy among fans, and every decision must be made with great caution.

In the thirteenth minute, Ljungberg tackled Scholes in midfield, leaving the referee unbearable.

Yellow!

Ljungberg is on the cards.

It was definitely not good news to take the cards so early, but five minutes later, Zhang Yang was about to make a move: replace Ljungberg and replace Gaslorin.

"Substitution!?"

"Millwall have made a substitution!"

"Ljungberg replaced? What does that mean? Is it because of the yellow card just now? ”

Of course!

In such a fierce game, the midfield position is very important, if you want to stop the opponent's attack, you must make some tactical fouls, there are cards on the body will limit the player's swing, and some actions to do will definitely have an impact.

The reason for Zhang Yang's substitution is also that he 'predicted' that the goal had been scored.

That was three minutes later.

United played a good wave of attacking attacks, with Carrick crossing diagonally to Tevez, who slotted the ball home from the edge of the box.

Before completing the substitution adjustment, Zhang Yang told Gaslorin to pay attention to Tevez, "Don't let him get up in front of the penalty area." ”

Gaslorin excitedly agreed.

Gaslorin is Millwall's youth product, but the strength is not very strong, the technology can not be said to be too bad, but it is definitely not good, he has been in the first team for more than half a year, and has only played once as a substitute in the cup, basically the most marginal player, he can enter the first team because the FA has youth player index regulations for various clubs, that is, he is a team that he entered in order to 'make up the number'.

This is Gaslorin's first appearance.

Zhang Yang basically has no expectations for Gaslorin's performance, but Gaslorin is very strong and can come in handy when playing tough games, and he came on to replace Ljungberg just to defend, and there is no hope at all in attack.

Gasloring's lack of game experience, but he is physically strong, fighting hard and after a period of familiarity with the game, he is even better than Ljungberg, because he is more active in running, and Livermore, the two of them cover the entire front of the penalty area, which is a headache for Manchester United's attack for a while.

Zhang Yang watched from the sidelines, and suddenly felt that Gaslorin should be allowed to play more.

This guy is physically strong, his physical fitness is very good, similar to Livermore's style, but he has a much better brain than Livermore, and his tactical ability is stronger, and he can't count on offense, but he can still perform well on tough defense.

"If you train well, maybe a good defender." Zhang Yang had a little snack.

Gaslorin worked hard.

This is a rare chance to play, or a game against Manchester United, he is very excited, hoping to use the time to perform well, although there has not been a direct tackle so far, but the continuous running effect is not bad, even if it is a stake, running back and forth, it is enough to give the opponent a headache.

Twenty-five minutes passed quickly, and United didn't know they had missed a goal, they had a headache for Millwall's defence, and both sides were on fire, and the head-to-head confrontation was very bad for Manchester United.

It doesn't take Ferguson to remind you that some of the United players have already realised it.

That's what the other party kicked on purpose!

When Manchester United hadn't figured out a good solution, Millwall's counter-attack hit one after another.

Although the theoretical formation is 9O1, Millwall did not give up attacking, the attack mainly relied on counterattacks, Suarez is very fast, can bring a certain threat to Manchester United, in addition, Braniff's occasional support is enough to give Manchester United a headache.

And then there's Livermore.

Livermore is the biggest reliance in Zhang Yang's heart, he wants to rely on Braniff who is not fast enough, Suarez, who is inexperienced and has not grown up, to complete the task of breaking Manchester United's goal, it is really a bit whimsical, Livermore is different, even if he is thirty meters away from the opponent's goal, Livermore can create a threat.

Zhang Yang's request for Livermore is: when it is safe to do so, he can plug in and look for opportunities.

Millwall made two successive attacks, both of which were shot by Livermore, one of which hit the woodwork, but United really broke out in a cold sweat.

Zhang Yang has 'words and laws' in the topic.

That's the tactic against Manchester United.

However, any plan that has been conceived will not be smooth sailing.

In the 41st minute of the game, an accident occurred, Wes Morgan collided with Tevez in the penalty area, when Tevez was about to meet the ball and shoot, the referee ruled that Wes Morgan had committed a foul.

Although Wes Morgan did not take a card, United were awarded a penalty.
