Quiescence!

Deathly silence!

……

Seeing the soccer ball pass between the two players and instantly appear in the net, many people's expressions froze. They were surprised by Livermore's goal and surprised by the speed with which Millwall equalised.

The second half had just begun, with 49 minutes of play and most of the time from just now to now, with Millwall only launching a second wave of attacks, but they relied on this wave to score.

It was only after that moment that the "Sky Sports" commentator reacted, and immediately raised his voice and yelled, "Goooooooooal!! This was followed by the cheers of the fans, the Millwall fans from away.

The Sky Sports commentator didn't know how long he shouted, until his voice ran out of energy, and he took a deep breath and continued, "Millwall played a great combination, David Livermore from outside the box, and broke the Reading goal with a powerful shot! ”

"The score became 1-1! The second half has only just begun, but judging by this goal, we can expect the next exciting thing! ”

"David Livermore! David Livermore! ”

'It was a shot of power that the two Reading defenders didn't react at all, as did goalkeeper Hahnemann...... Let's take a look at the slow motion ......"

The TV screen replays the goal footage, and it can be clearly seen in slow motion that the moment Livermore shoots, goalkeeper Hahnemann has no reaction, he is blocked from view, he doesn't know that he is about to face the shot, and then the football rushes out between the two defenders and rushes quickly to the goal, goalkeeper Hahnemann has an expression, but he just watched the football fly over, and no save was made.

The commentator analyzed, "The ball speed is too fast! Goalkeeper Hahnemann didn't have time to do anything, and by the time he could react, the football was already in the goal! He was perhaps the most desperate of all, because he couldn't do anything. ”

"It was David Livermore who brought the goal, in the last four months, Livermore has made thirteen appearances for Millwall and has become a regular in the team, but Livermore is better defensively, he is a very physical midfielder, but from this goal, we can see that Livermore is enough to form a threat to the goal on the outside of the box, maybe Reading should pay attention to his defense."

The Sky Sports commentator has wronged Koper a little.

Kopper's goal is to secure a top-six finish in the league and qualify for the promotion play-offs, and he takes every game and every point very seriously, so it is natural that Millwall will be carefully understood.

Before the game, Koper also specifically told the players to pay more attention to David Livermore, 'don't give this strong guy any chance', 'he has a poor sense of the game, just have someone to follow him all the time'.

That's Koper's way of coping.

Reading's defense did something against Livermore, and it worked quite well, the shot just now was David Livermore, and there were very few chances in front, but they didn't expect that it was just one chance to score.

The Reading players were surprised by the goal --

"This stupid big guy's shot is terrible! I didn't even react just now! ”

"Watch him out! It's too dangerous! ”

"Sorry, I didn't have time to defend, but the ball was too fast, and by the time I reacted, the ball was already over!"

“……”

The Reading players were talking in surprise and the Millwall players were celebrating excitedly, as they gathered around Livermore and celebrated the goal.

It was a big goal.

Millwall players, I don't understand the reason for Zhang Yang's adjustment, many players are actually full of doubts about the offensive strategy around Livermore, Livermore's performance is very average, why do you want to focus on him to attack?

Now they don't have to question because Livermore scored quickly, so what else is there to question?

In that position just now, the other players wanted to kick in, but they all felt unlikely, after all, it was outside the penalty area, and there were two defenders in front of him, and Livermore kicked it cleanly.

This is a testament to his abilities!

If Livermore had been able to perform like this, would the Reading goal become a sieve?

Many teammates are looking forward to it.

Livermore was the happiest one because he had a rare goal, but in the second half so far he was the least stressed.

It seems incomprehensible.

As a player who has been designated as a tactical center, how can you also carry some pressure? The key problem is that Livermore is completely unaware that he is at the center of the tactics, because Zhang Yang did not directly point this out when he laid out the tactics.

Zhang Yang just explained that the side and the forward line were more active, and he explained that Jody Morris should retreat a little, and the explanation to Livermore was 'plugged in at the right time', and that's all for the summary, Livermore didn't remember things that had nothing to do with him, he only knew that he had to step forward more to find opportunities.

Any player with a tactical acumen who listens to one probably knows that the offensive end revolves around Livermore, but he himself is completely unaware.

Without knowing it, there is no pressure at all.

Maybe that's a stupid blessing.

After the game restarted, Zhang Yang returned to the coach's seat and sat down, and began to stare at the field seriously.

Only five minutes after the second half, Millwall quickly equalized, the situation was not bad, but Zhang Yang was also considered to have exhausted his means, 'lucky blessing' and 'words and words' were all used, and there was no active use of the 'supernatural ability', he could only rely on 'foreknowledge' to command the game.

'Foresight' works well, but it's not easy to just know what to expect, and it's not easy to make changes.

At this time, the performance of the players on the field is much more important than the adjustment, and since the tactical play has been arranged, Zhang Yang also hopes to see what kind of performance the team can have.

————

After the restart, the mentality of the two teams was different.

Reading had a goal advantage before, as long as they didn't concede a goal to win, they played calmly, Millwall was a little anxious to score, a little aggressive in attack, but fortunately Livermore completed the goal, and did not give Reading a chance to take advantage of.

Now both teams want to score, Reading are not willing to be tied and three points become a point, they can be overtaken by the rivals behind them, Millwall also hope to score again, if they want to get close to the top two in the league, they must catch up with Wigan Athletic, every point is precious.

With this mentality, the game becomes much more intense.

The full-court scramble, the constant physical confrontation, the fast-paced conversion of the ball, the home team Reading and Millwall combined to perform a wonderful game, so that the fans in the audience became enthusiastic, both fans are cheering for their respective teams, their shouting and cheering, also formed a scenery of the game.

In the heat of the game, all the players from both teams are involved, but for the media, it is always a few people who need to be focused, before Millwall's focus was Jody Morris, as long as you follow the media in the Championship, you will definitely focus on Morris, who is one of the best midfielders in the Championship, and as the game progresses, the focus is now on Braniff and David Livermore.

It's normal for Braniff to be noticed.

On the field, Braniff showed dazzling technical prowess, whether it was breaking through with the ball, cooperating with teammates, or occasionally shooting at goal, he could bring a threat to Reading.

He is Millwall's player with the highest touch rate and the most dangerous player against Reading.

Quite a few people were surprised by Braniff's performance.

Zhang Yang was also surprised.

While Braniv has been doing well, he never thought of Branifer as a talent.

But now Braniff is proving it with his performances, and his excellence lies not in a single technical standout, but in his all-round ability, his mastery of his feet, and when he gets the ball up front, he has many options: he can pass the ball, he can break through, he can occasionally shoot on his own, or he can trick the opposition defense to attract enough attention and then hand over the football to his teammates.

Wait a minute.

Braniff's all-round nature gave the Reading defence a headache.

They had to devote more energy to deal with the threat created by Branifer, and after being cared for by Reading's backline, Braniff was a little quieter and less bright, but Braniff was a little happy because he knew he had done his job of attracting enough attention from the defence.

The second player to be watched at Millwall was David Livermore, who scored a goal.

The reason why Livermore is on the spotlight is very simple, his goal outside the box is so beautiful, directly penetrating the Reading team's defense, so that the goalkeeper has no time to react, and then giving him a chance outside the penalty area, will it pose a threat to the Reading team?

Many people are starting to look forward to it.

It's a pity that Reading also attach great importance to Livermore's defense, they are extremely tight in the front of the penalty area, and when Livermore is in a dangerous position, they will send a player to follow, making it difficult for Livermore to find opportunities.

This is also where Zhang Yang's headache lies.

Livermore's abilities are outstanding, his flaws are outstanding, and he's so easy to target!

Despite Reading's emphasis on Livermore's defence, it was impossible to be without holes in a tight defence, and in the 68th minute of the game, Livermore got a chance.

It was around 25 metres from the goal and at a 60-degree angle to the goal when Livermore suddenly accelerated, the defender couldn't keep up with the defender and Jody Morriston poked the ball through.

Livermore meets the ball and volleys directly!

"Bang!"

Like a cannonball, the ball slashed across the penalty area against the turf and slammed into the left side of the goal.

Goalkeeper Hahnemann made a wonderful save!

He was in the air and took the ball out of the baseline with both hands, and when he saw the ball fly off the baseline, the Reading team exhaled a long breath.

"It's too dangerous!"

Many Reading players have their eyes on Livermore, and they can't overstate the importance of this guy's defense.

After this threatening shot, Reading paid more attention to Livermore's defence, sending their players to follow Livermore's closer, and as long as the football was in their own half, they did not let up for a moment.

But in the next period, many people found that Millwall completely suppressed the home team Reading with an attack......
