Chapter 169: Great news
The Crewe team has been very bad this season!
So far, they are 21st in the league and are pure 'relegation circle' teams, but at the end of the league, the points gap has also appeared, and they have four more points than the 22nd in the league, and they can save it.
Despite the fact that the points are not in good shape, it is time for the Crewe team to have to fight, and the difference of four points is not enough to guarantee a stay in the Championship.
If the results continue to be poor, Crewe may continue to fall in the bottom three of the league, and really have to face a miserable relegation result, which is unacceptable to the whole Crewe team, including the club, including the players, and the manager Dalio Gadi.
Dalio Gadi attended the press conference a little later.
From the mouth of the 'kind' reporter, Dalio Gadi learned what Zhang Yang said, and he immediately expressed his determination angrily, "Millwall is not easy to deal with? Of course, they are third in the league and their manager can criticize us as much as he wants, but we don't have time to care about anyone else. Now we just want to finish relegation! ”
'We're going to do everything we can to fight for relegation and if third-placed Millwall think they can easily beat us in the bottom four, then they have to be careful!'
Zhang Yang only pouted disdainfully when he heard Dalio Gadi's words, there are always many Europeans, who are completely a tendon, and if other coaches talk about 'winning in the face of Millwall', he may lower his posture and congratulate the other party on his victory first, and then use this to motivate the players' fighting spirit.
This can also make opponents let their guard down.
Dalio Gadi is probably not that kind of slick character, but he can't be criticized for his way of doing things.
The stunned character is still very good!
The whole world is such a stunned guy, maybe it will be much cleaner and less filthy.
After Zhang Yang sighed that 'people's hearts are not ancient', he began to make the final mobilization for the players, "Everyone should know that the relegation team is not easy to deal with, and I have received many reminders." The coach of Crewe, Dalio Gaddi, also reminded you, and I want to thank him here! ”
Quite a few players burst out laughing.
Zhang Yang made a little joke and continued, "But I also want to remind you that it is a fact that the relegation team is really difficult to play because they will work hard, but we will also fight because we need to upgrade!" The motivation to promote is no less than relegation, and each of you wants to play in the Premier League! ”
"Millwall has never entered the Premier League in its history, as long as we continue to work hard and continue to play hard, then each of your names will be remembered by Millwall fans and recorded in the history books of Millwall FC! So let's go all out, beat them and let them know that Millwall is invincible! ”
For Millwall's players, there is nothing more tempting than promotion, with one player after another taking to the field with a fighting spirit.
The Crewe team is tenacious.
The Crewe team very much wants to get points, they work hard to put into the game, but unfortunately there is a gap in strength between the two sides, and now Millwall, it is not the time for the first half of the schedule, the confidence and fighting spirit of the whole team have increased a lot, and the overall strength has also increased a lot.
As soon as the game began, Millwall put Crewe under pressure.
That kind of suffocating offense didn't give the Crewe team even a chance to catch their breath, they couldn't attack the middle line, and they could only defend the goal with the whole team.
Team Crewe did a good job.
They defended for 40 minutes and many felt that Crewe were going to succeed, in this kind of absolutely passive game, it was quite successful to keep a clean sheet in the half, and in the second half, maybe the Crewe team relied on luck to score a goal that would have decided the outcome of the game.
It was at this time that the 'unpleasant' Braniff broke through the closed door of the Crewe team with a beautiful individual performance.
It was in the 41st minute when Braniff received a pass from outside the box, turned his back and nimbly picked up the opposing defender, then chased the ball and changed direction to dribble into the box, and then stabbed directly into the bottom corner with the tip of his right foot.
The Crewe goalkeeper gave his teammates a helpless expression.
"Braniff! Kevin Braniff! Neal Stadium commentator Mike Johnson excitedly shouted, "Braniff used his gorgeous technique to shake two opponents in a row to help Millwall score the first goal!" ”
"Millwall opens up!"
"The ball is in! Braniff is the brightest genius! ”
————
The moment the football flew into the goal, Zhang Yang applauded excitedly and celebrated, and he found that after Morris retreated, the other players were doing well, but it was not David Livermore who was really released, but Braniff on the front line, who could almost show his ability to the fullest, and also bring unexpected surprises.
Braniff!
He may be a true genius!
This also brought Zhang Yang a lot of sense of achievement, you must know that he had never heard of Braniff's name in his previous life, this guy was probably not liked by various head coaches, and he had no chance to show himself at all.
Not anymore!
Zhang Yang discovered Braniff and let Braniff show it at will.
"Maybe I'm also a genius Bole?" Zhang Yang thought happily, completely leaving the unhappiness with Braniff behind.
The ancients said, 'Therefore, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies, empty their bodies, and act chaotically', and he just let Braniff stay in the youth team for two months, just to hone his state of mind.
Check it out!
Braniff has really grown!
With Braniff's goal, it was a good second half and for Crewe they had to at least secure points or else the league table would be dangerous.
They are under a lot of pressure.
Falling behind, the Crewe team could no longer continue to defend the goal.
Millwall ruthlessly crushed their hopes of a point, and in the 69th minute, Jody Morris burst into the box and leapt high into the box to head Simpson's ball into the back of the net with a right-footed kick.
The ball is in!
"Two to zero! Millwall sealed the win early! ”
"They've won 10 in a row, 10 in a row! Ten wins in a row! That's an amazing honor! Instead of shouting about the goal, Mike Johnson roared Millwall's ten-game winning streak.
The live fans took his place of work.
Every Millwall fan shouted for a goal, and the sky over Neil Stadium was filled with huge cheers.
The atmosphere in the home team also made the fighting spirit of the Crewe team even more sluggish.
The Krewe team then seemed to be unresisting, huddled in their own half, with no intention of attacking at all, and manager Dalio Gadi standing on the sidelines anxiously directing the game did not help at all.
Ten minutes before the end of the game, even Dalio Gadi gave up, he automatically forgot what he said before the game, and used up three substitutions in a row to let the main players go off.
Compared to a game that is impossible to tie, it is more reliable to look at the last few games.
After all, the Crewe team still has the capital to lose.
In the end, Millwall beat Crewe 2-0 to win their tenth league game.
Ten wins in a row is an exciting feat at any level of the league, and Millwall fans celebrated wildly, only to discover even more exciting news: Millwall rivals Wigan Athletic had drawn with a draw.
In the same game, Wigan Athletic drew away to Nottingham Forest, taking just one point from this round, while Millwall picked up three points, so that Millwall moved up to second place in the league by one point.
That's great news!
