There was a lot of Millwall news in the media ahead of the game, with David Livermore starting and taking up a large part of the content.

The media's comments on this were basically "Livermore is hardly a threat to Nottingham Forest!" ”

"Bullish on Livermore? That young manager has no vision! ”

"Letting Livermore start was a terrible decision and one of the biggest reasons Millwall lost."

“……”

Livermore's ability and past performance have also been revealed in various ways, and fans look at the news and feel that Livermore is the kind of player who will not pose a threat to the goal.

But now their views have changed.

I can't believe what the media says!

Look at the shot just now!

It was a long-range shot from 25 yards out, just a fraction of a second past Nottingham Forest.

Is this called no threat?

So what does it mean to be threatening?

Many fans felt that they had been 'fooled', and they became very angry, and some fans were ready to call to complain.

All the reporters who reported on Livermore's news felt a little red on their cheeks, they didn't expect Livermore to come with such a powerful shot.

"It must be Meng, this is not normal strength!"

"Livermore doesn't have the ability to shoot from a distance, and it is said that sometimes, he can't even tell the difference between the left and right sides!"

"That's luck!"

'He's got a lot of power and he happens to be able to play dangerous balls as well.

“……”

The media is starting to look for all sorts of reasons.

Paul Scott, the commentator of "Sky Sports", also coughed lightly and said, "We saw Livermore's shot just now, which posed a great threat to the Nottingham Forest goal, and the score was almost rewritten!" The player has rough technique, but he still has some power from distance, and if Nottingham Forest are careless, he can also create a little bit of a threat......

Paul Scott's statement is still very conservative.

Like other media reporters, he also attributed Livermore's shot to luck, after all, it was just a kick or something, and Livermore's strength was great, and it was normal for him to play a threat.

But it soon became clear to them that Livermore wasn't just a 'little threat', he was too much of a threat.

After Livermore's threatening kick, Millwall's team-mates had plenty of confidence in him.

Before, they weren't bullish on Livermore either.

But when they found out that Livermore's long-range shot worked in practice, they kept trying to get the ball through.

Nottingham Forest is starting to have a headache.

At the beginning, they still didn't care much about Livermore, but when Livermore plugged in, there would still be someone to defend, but the importance of defense would definitely not catch up with Millwall's other frontcourts.

Livermore wouldn't run too far ahead, either.

As everyone else knows, Livermore's foundation is rough and his ability to cooperate with his teammates is very average, and he runs a little far back, and it is difficult for him to receive passes from his teammates.

But there's always a chance!

Nottingham Forest couldn't have blocked all of the edge of the box, so when Livermore ran to the corner of the box, Neil Harris didn't choose to divert a cross, but instead knocked back and kicked the ball towards Livermore.

How far is the penalty area from the goal?

Sixteen.5 meters!

How far can Livermore's long-range shot threaten the opposition goal?

Thirty meters!

Seeing the football rolling in front of him, Livermore glanced at the goal, met the ball from Neil Harris's return pass, and took the turn to shoot with his right foot!

Such a long-range goal rate is too low.

Nottingham Forest full-back Welch, who was behind Livermore, didn't stop him, but then he saw the ball whizzing towards his own goal.

"Danger! Look at this ball! ”

The commentators, the media, and the fans were all nervous.

Nottingham Forest's goalkeeper Barry Roche stared at the rushing football, and he felt he had no chance to save it at the first time, but he still took a breath and slammed his legs hard to the left.

He did it!

The football was taken out of the bottom line by Barry Roche with both hands!

"Hoo ......"

Once again, Nottingham Forest escaped.

Barry Roche fell to the grass, his fingers hurt, thinking back to the shot just now, he was more scared than anyone else, so when he stood up, he saw that his other teammates were glad that he didn't score, and he yelled angrily at Welch, "Don't let that guy get up on his feet!" ”

"That's too dangerous!"

The Nottingham Forest players finally realized the danger!

————

Nottingham Forest in the dugout.

Head coach Hart sat in his seat, but his expression was no longer composed, and his half-smiling demeanor had changed to frowning, he didn't expect Livermore's long-range shot to be so powerful.

The two long-range shots from outside the penalty area just now were too much of a threat to the goal, and the score would have been rewritten if there was a slight mistake.

In English football, there are many players like Livermore, who are powerful from long range, but there are only a handful of them who can pose such a threat.

Hart could think of two.

One is Chelsea's key player Frank Lampard and the other is Liverpool's key player Steven Gerrard.

Livermore certainly couldn't catch up with these two.

No matter from the perspective of technology, coordination ability, technical tactics, leadership, on-the-spot performance, fighting spirit and other factors, he and Frank Lampard, Gerrard is still far behind, but just looking at the two shots just now, at least in terms of peripheral long-range shooting ability, is already about to catch up with the two.

That's where the surprise begins.

David Livermore?

When did this player have the ability to shoot from the outside!

Hart couldn't help but look at Millwall's dugout, the young Chinese had been saying 'bullish on Livermore' before the game, and almost everyone thought it was a sign of 'no vision'.

It seems that the other side is not without vision, but knows his own players better than others.

The flamboyant mentality is very relaxed.

From the first minute of the match, he used his 'foresight' ability to see what was going on.

In terms of watching the game, ahead of others, the mentality will naturally become very good, the only thing is that Livermore didn't score two consecutive threatening balls, but the use of 'words and words' may not be effective, because Livermore's shooting performance is already very good.

If you tell the players, it may affect the team's performance.

To score a goal from a distance, it depends on luck.

The opposing goalkeeper reacts more slowly, or the angle of the ball is very tricky, he can convert what can be converted into a goal, otherwise it is still more difficult to score a goal from 20 meters away, and everything depends on the historical performance of the player and the opponent.

Zhang Yang believes that it is only a matter of time before a goal is scored.

The game is different.

After a period of play, the players on the pitch gradually found their form, and when both teams found their form, home advantage became less important and the strength of the whole team became crucial.

Millwall's on-field lineup is assessed as a 'five-star' rating.

Zhang Yang doesn't know the strength of Nottingham Forest, but it will definitely be difficult for them to reach five stars, otherwise the results will not be bad all the time.

Millwall has the advantage of strength.

When the play gradually improved, Millwall's advantage was reflected, when the two teams were in a stalemate, Millwall had better possession time and attacking efficiency, and Nottingham Forest became a little passive.

This can be seen in the game.

When Millwall played a bit of an advantage, the situation on the pitch became very favourable, and from the 25th to the 35th minute, Millwall had 59 per cent possession and had three shots on goal, compared to just one for Nottingham Forest.

Everyone can see Millwall's advantage.

This also made Nottingham Forest, from the coach, to the players, to the fans start to worry.

Sky Sports commentator Paul Scott also said, "Millwall have been outstanding during this period, they have gained the advantage on the pitch, the offensive statistics are superior, and the defence has not given Nottingham Forest a chance. ”

"If the game continues, it's bad for Nottingham Forest. Perhaps Nottingham Forest boss Hart should find a way to change the situation. ”
