Chapter 471: The Most Proud Disciple

Maybe Ferguson doesn't take Branifer seriously, maybe Ferguson thinks that C-Ronaldo is much better than Braniff, and his performance will be much better than Braniff, he has absolute confidence in C-Ronaldo's strength, but the old jazz may also understand one thing-

In football, the on-the-spot performance of players is not an ordinary sprint, there is no same starting line, there is no same long track.

At the beginning of the game, Braniff was already far ahead, and in front of C-Ronaldo, there were many obstacles piled up to block the pace of continuing to move forward.

C-Ronaldo is destined to be unable to outrun Branif.

In the game that is being played now, C-Ronaldo's focus from the beginning has gradually been subconsciously ignored, and even gradually forgotten by the fans, while Braniff has become the focus of the whole game by relying on his continuous wonderful performances.

Whenever Millwall attacked, the camera would point to the past, and even if Braniv didn't have the ball, a camera would keep tracking to cut the camera in the first place.

In the midst of all the attention, Braniff also performed quite well, constantly showing superb footwork, constantly showing excellent awareness, and also leading Millwall's attack, which in turn kept Manchester United at bay.

As the game progressed, United went from having a slight advantage at the beginning to being somewhat suppressed later, and they took the defense in the middle very seriously, only to find that there was not much to do about Branifer.

This is also the difference in the positioning of Braniff and C-Ronaldo.

Braniff is a midfielder, the core of the organization, the positioning of the core of the organization, is in the position where the whole team is protected, behind him are the back players, there are full-backs on both sides, and there are strikers in front, standing in the middle of the team, forward can be forward, back can be backward, it is not easy for the other side to limit.

C-Ronaldo is different.

In Manchester United's 433 formation system, C-Ronaldo is a right midfielder, or right forward, and his position is a bit forward, directly opposite the fullback, and it is much easier to restrict.

Zhang Yang looked at the closely guarded C-Ronaldo, and then looked at the dazzling Braniff, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, he felt that C-Ronaldo was too good to defend, and after thinking about it carefully, he was a little gloating.

This may be another Ferguson failure.

C-Ronaldo has just emerged, and he is not as strong as he was a few years later, and the 442 formation does limit the play on the wing, but it is better than facing the backline directly, right?

————

C-Ronaldo and Braniff showed a gap in performance, and Braniff also helped Millwall quickly establish an advantage with his excellent performance.

In the 34th minute, a wave of attacks from Manchester United came to an end, and Carrick ran a little forward, and before he could retreat, Braniff got the ball in front of the halfway line, and the area in front of him was a smooth 10-metre range.

Braniff dribbled forward quickly.

After six or seven meters in a row, he slowed down slightly, glanced left and right at the position of his teammates, and then continued to rush forward.

Vidic ran over to intercept.

Braniff kicked Darren Bent on one side and kept jumping past Vidic to continue running, Vidic was a little slower and couldn't keep up with him at the first time, and Braniff immediately received Darren Bent's return pass.

With a one-two to shake off Vidic, Braniff will have to face Ferdinand.

Darren Bent is being pestered by Culina.

Braniff glanced to the left and saw that the rest of his teammates hadn't followed.

When he was a meter away from Ferdinand, Braniff made a gesture to pass to the right, Ferdinand was experienced and didn't move a step, but Braniff chose to go to the right, and Ferdinand suddenly took a step to the right.

Taking advantage of the gap, Braniff suddenly poked the ball in the direction of the goal.

This seemingly stabbing action made Ferdinand subconsciously raise his legs, but it failed to prevent the football from rushing over, and Braniff ran past Ferdinand's left side in reverse, forcibly twisted his waist to balance his center of gravity, and rushed forward with all his strength.

The ball is divided!

Playing 'ball splitting' in front of the penalty area is quite technical.

Ferdinand didn't expect that the other party would suddenly play such a hand, and when he reacted and wanted to chase again, he couldn't resist it at all, so he could only turn his head and watch Braniff run over.

Goalkeeper Kuczak rushed out!

It's a contest of speed, and Kuczak can hold the ball before Braniff and defuse all the danger, otherwise the goal behind him would be dangerous.

Everyone watched nervously.

Braniff was a bit of a loser, he ran hard, but the ball was directed towards Kuczak, who was far away but in a better position.

Braniff lunged forward quickly, and judging by his eyes, it seemed as if the two would touch the ball at the same time.

Kuczak's mood was much more stable.

If you touch the ball at the same time, as long as you block the goal range with your body, it will be too difficult for the opponent to score, but the moment the two touched each other, Braniff suddenly made a tackle, and his body rushed forward, half a meter faster.

Kuczak was shocked, and when he came head-on, he only saw the opponent shoveling under his feet.

After all the chaos......

Braniff lay flat on the grass, and Kuczak was half-lying on top of him.

The two of them were acting a little funny, but no one was paying attention to this at the moment, and all their attention was on the goal--

The football is rolling in the goal.

The next moment, the referee made a gesture pointing to the center circle, which also meant that the goal was declared'.

Neil Field erupted!

"The ball went in ——!"

“Goooooooooooooooooooal!!!”

"Kevin—"

—Braniff ——!!"

As Mike Johnson shouted, the Millwall fans in the spectator stands let out a huge cheer, and the commentator continued to shout, "It's the thirty-second minute of the game, and Braniff has just finished a wonderful performance, he has completed a shot in front of goalkeeper Kuczzak!" ”

"Maybe a lot of people don't see it clearly, let's look at the slow-motion replay......"

Slow motion appeared on the TV broadcast.

In slow-motion view, it's clear what happened: Braniff made a tackle, but only to get his hands on it faster, and then in front of Kuczak, his toes went up and he happened to kick under the ball, which changed direction and jumped past Kuczak's hand and into the goal behind him.

Braniff was at the limit!

At the moment when the referee signaled that the goal was valid, Kuczzak still couldn't believe it, he stared blankly at the football in the door, and couldn't imagine how he got in.

It was only after half a ring that Kuczzak came back to his senses, because a voice came from under his body, "Get me up!" ”

The referee also came over and asked if Kuczak was injured.

Of course, no.

It was difficult for Kuczzak to pretend to be injured, because he was the one on top, and Braniff was the one who pressed him down, realizing that the movements of the two were embarrassing, and there were reporters outside the bottom line who were constantly taking pictures, he quickly stood up.

Braniff then got up, pressed his hand against his cheek, and looked like he wanted to vomit, "You stink so much!" ”

"What did you say!"

"I said you stink!" Braniff replied, as if he couldn't bear it anymore, and walked a little shaky.

The referee was standing next to him, and he immediately warned, "Watch your words!" ”

The referee was full of sympathy for Branifer.

Braniff is not particularly handsome, but how can he be regarded as young and energetic, the pigtails on the back of his head are a little small, and he was pressed by a big man like Kuczak and forcibly endured for a long time, which is really ...... Ahem, but he's the referee and can't let the two sides clash over words.

Braniff could only walk back depressedly.

The rest of his team-mates had already arrived, and they surrounded Braniff in the middle, excitedly celebrating in various ways, and everyone shared the joy of the goal.

————

In the stands of the crowd at Neil Stadium, the Millwall fans cheered wildly, and every fan was excited.

This league game is too important.

As long as they can win against Manchester United, Millwall will pull down seven points from their opponents, and with only six games left in the league, Manchester United want to tie the game, as the media says, the game is the 'final of the league'.

Millwall fans are hoping that the game will be a league rather than allowing the Manchesters to get their hands on the road and the title race back in suspense.

The game was as advertised in the media, it was indeed very intense, the game was intense on both sides, the pace was very fast, and the transfer between attack and defense made both eyes feel overwhelmed, but Millwall fans would prefer to see the team score.

Victory is more important than a good game!

As long as they can beat Manchester United, Millwall will almost be equivalent to sealing the league title in advance, and 'becoming the defending title' is a great honour that every fan is looking forward to.

Millwall fans were so happy to see Braniff score.

Ahead of Manchester United!

For Millwall, the gap between the lead and the win is not too big, right?

Every fan has plenty of confidence.

This is out of confidence in the team's achievements in the past two seasons, and even more so confidence in publicity.

In the hearts of Millwall fans, Zhang Yang is the god who came from the East to save Millwall from the dire situation and mold Millwall into a top team.

God, omnipotent!

At the same time, Zhang Yang was celebrating with the others, and what made him happiest was not that Millwall were ahead of Manchester United, but that Branifer was extremely good.

There are a number of players in the Millwall team that he brought out: Simpson, Morris, Livermore, Darren Ward, and even backup striker Curtis Weston.

Now it's different.

Even the worst Curtis Weston is by no means comparable to a player in the lower leagues, if he goes to the Championship, or even the Premier League relegation team, he may become the main striker, and no matter how bad he is, he will become the most focused player.

Needless to say, the others are not too much.

To say that the most proud 'disciple', or the weird personality of Kevin Braniff, last season Braniff could not catch up with Livermore, but in the first half of this season there has been rapid improvement, his performance has been quite good, after blessing the effect of 'words and spirits', he has taken a step forward, to the court, it feels like a higher strength than others.

It's already a top league!

What does it mean to be a better team than others in the top league? It's clear that Braniff is on his way to superstardom.

That's where Zhang Yang's pride comes in.

Others, such as Simpson and Livermore, are just ordinary stars even if they have the bonus of the 'Verbal Temptation' ability, and Morris and Darren Ward are not bad, but they are older, have too little room to grow, and their careers are at their peak.

Only Braniff!

Seeing that Braniff can rely on his individual ability, break through Manchester United's defense, and also send the ball into Manchester United's goal in an extreme way, Zhang Yang's heart is full of a sense of achievement.
