The news that Jose Mourinho is leaving Chelsea did not affect Millwall's game against Chelsea.

The two sides are still fighting normally.

When Millwall's bus entered Neil Field, there was media in the mixed zone hoping to interview him.

Zhang Yang didn't want to be interviewed, but when he heard the news about Mourinho from reporters, he walked over and emphasized, "I can only ask questions now." In a short press conference, I won't answer questions that have nothing to do with the game. ”

The reporter immediately seized the opportunity to ask questions.

The reporter's question is nothing more than for Zhang Yang to express his views on Mourinho's 'situation'.

This question has been answered by many other managers, with many Premier League managers standing in solidarity with Jose Mourinho.

Manchester United manager Alex Ferguson, who is said to have had a personal relationship with Jose Mourinho, said of Mourinho's departure: "It will be very disappointing for me, I love to have him around. We had coffee together and could tell that he was an excellent person. I'm enjoying competing with him and I don't know what's going on now. ”

Ferguson also made a point of mentioning the flamboyance, "If I had a choice, I would prefer that the manager of Millwall has problems and that English football will become more active without him. ”

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger also said he felt Jose Mourinho would stay, "I can't talk about Chelsea. Because I don't know what's going on there. But I think he'll stay. ”

Arsene Wenger also said a manager can only play if he 'has the support of the club' and that "a manager should have his authority. I've been lucky to be at Arsenal and I've been here for 10 years thanks to the environment at the club, where from the start you've been given all the freedom to work the way you want. Chelsea's structure may be different, but I can't comment because I don't know who's in charge there. ”

Fulham boss Coleman said it must have been mentally disturbed for the Chelsea hierarchy to let Mourinho go: 'Chelsea have had some difficulties, but for the first time in more than two years, I can't imagine them making such a stupid decision. ”

Newcastle manager Roder said: "I hope Mourinho doesn't go, he's a fantastic manager. If he leaves, it will be a huge loss for the Premier League. ”

Among the many solidarities was the voices of the Chelsea players, with Didier Drogba, who is trusted by Jose Mourinho, saying: 'Mourinho has built a Chelsea culture, we all love the way he manages, he brings confidence to the team. Losing him would be excruciatingly painful and a sad separation for a player because it would mean losing a friend. I don't know what to expect, but if it does, it will be sad. Now there are rumors everywhere, but hopefully he will stay. ”

When the many voices of support rang out, Zhang Yang, as the manager of Millwall, must have said something, he took the initiative to be interviewed, and first responded to Ferguson's words, "He (Ferguson) wants to leave me?" I'm sorry I'm not going to go because we always beat Manchester United, the club and the fans and we're happy with that. ”

"But I was disappointed with his idea, which made me think of the competition in the primary school class, the second place in the class, not actively studying hard, but hoping that the first place will transfer away, that is not a positive way of thinking......" The meaning of the words is that Ferguson is naïve like a primary school student, and he is a primary school student with negative emotions.

Many reporters couldn't help but burst out laughing when they heard Zhang Yang's words, including the reporters of Manchester Sport, who supported Manchester United and Ferguson, but they still found it very interesting to think of this analogy.

"Raise this mouth...... It's really sharp! Many reporters sighed.

Zhang Yang continued to talk about Mourinho, "If he does leave, I feel sorry, he is an admirable opponent. I'll miss the contest between us, too. ”

"But it's not goodbye. European football is so big, whether he goes to Italy, or Spain, or whatever, we definitely have a chance to meet it, or in the Champions League, or whatever, after all, we are still young, and I believe he can still coach for 20 years, unlike some coaches, who are so old that they have to think about retiring......"

Zhang Yang finally satirized Ferguson and left the reporters' field of vision.

When it came to the press conference, Zhang Yang didn't talk about Mourinho, but specifically talked about the game, talked about the preparation before the game, talked about the format of the schedule that Millwall faced, etc., in short, talked about the game and the team.

Then the competition officially began.

Not long after the game began, it could be seen that both sides were playing very steadily and were not disturbed by outside news, and because of this, the game was very dull from the beginning.

Chelsea take defence very seriously.

Millwall are a formidable opponent for Chelsea, having failed to beat them in the last two seasons and have lost most of their games, so it will not be easy to beat them.

Millwall also put a lot of emphasis on defence and are in no hurry to attack at home.

The Sky Sports commentator analysed the reasons and believes that both sides need to prepare for the next Champions League matches, and that they have reservations, and that it is important to note that "the game is not important to both sides. ”

Chelsea are third in the league and they have a five-point gap to Manchester United, and it will not be easy to catch up, and even if they do, they are still Millwall, who have more points in front of them, and the eleven points gap is no joke, they have almost no chance.

Chelsea don't have to fight Millwall at all, and a win isn't a big deal in terms of league points.

Millwall, on the other hand, are top of the league table, six points more than Manchester United, and they still have a huge advantage, and they don't have to fight Chelsea under the pressure of Champions League fixtures.

Both sides played conservatively and the game was very dull.

The scramble is not intense, the attack is not active, and the pace is a little slow, and the game scene is a little drowsy.

The media at the scene regretted coming to the interview, they wanted to see a fierce scene, and as a result, the two teams played such a 'peaceful' game, and the fans in the spectator stands cheered much quieter.

Some critical voices came.

Some media said that Chelsea did not take the initiative, "In the past two seasons, they have not won against Millwall, but Mourinho has allowed Chelsea to play such a game, they seem to have no desire to win. ”

Some media said that Millwall should be more active, "Millwall's starting lineup, several positions are substitutes, obviously not focusing on the game, they should be more active, because this is Neil Stadium." ”

These criticisms will certainly not affect the game.

Mourinho and Zhang Yang are very sensible, they know that the next Champions League is more important, the two teams have no benefit, they will play normally, as long as it does not affect the Champions League game, any result is acceptable.

However, football is certainly not 'peaceful', Chelsea and Millwall are very competitive, and the players of both sides will still give their best to fight within the existing tactical framework when it comes to the game.

Thirty minutes later, the game finally became more intense, the attacking threat increased, and the tempo of the transition between attack and defense increased.

This made the fans and viewers a little more energetic.

There was no goal at the end of the first half, and neither side made any adjustments during a half-time break, and the second half continued the situation of the first half.

Looking at the match stats, Millwall managed 52 per cent possession and five shots on goal, while Chelsea had 48 per cent possession and seven shots on goal.

Both teams scored.

The two sides are kind of fighting.

Twenty minutes into the second half, it was the long-awaited goal that came but Chelsea were the first to break the deadlock, with Didier Drogba receiving a corner from Arjen Robben and heading past Graham's handle.

1 to 0!

It was a goal that got Chelsea supporters excited.

The reporters in the media were also very excited, not only because there was a goal, but also because it was Chelsea who scored.

Chelsea have not beaten Millwall in the last two seasons and with almost 70 minutes played, Chelsea are in a good position to lead Millwall and if it can continue until the end of the game, Chelsea will be able to break the embarrassment of not being able to beat Millwall for a long time.

But Chelsea's excitement lasted only three minutes.

Three minutes later, Millwall exploited a fast attack, and Braniff and Vardy combined exquisitely again, with Braniff sending a diagonal cross past Carvalho and Vardy on the other side to send the ball past Cech with a shot from the far corner.

1 to 1!

I was excited just now, and the media was stunned.

'Millwall equalised quickly, they needed just three minutes and Branifer and Vardy combined very delicately......

"Let's look at slow motion...... Braniff dribbled with his head and barely looked to the left, but his pass found Jamie Vardy. Maybe the two of them practiced countless times off the court, and this kind of coordination is as precise as if it was pre-rehearsed! ”

'Jamie Vardy's shot was from a tricky angle and there was nothing Cech could do ......'

Chelsea fans were frustrated by the shouts of Sky Sports commentators as they were levelled by just three minutes.

Chelsea and Millwall then exchanged attacks and defences, but until the last minute, neither side could find the back of the net.

In the end, the two teams drew 1-1.

————

After the game, Zhang Yang shook hands with Mourinho.

This is the first time the two have officially met each other, and the normal form of courtesy handshake takes place.

Under the camera lens, the two shook hands for more than ten seconds, and had a brief conversation.

But in fact, the words of the two are not friendly.

"1 to 1, it's a shame."

"Indeed, I thought I would win. Of course, the result doesn't matter, we're going to win for sure. ”

"You don't have any Chinese modesty."

"Thank you for the compliment. By the way, I heard you're leaving? It's a shame that the last time it was a draw. ”

"That's not necessarily, maybe the Champions League can still be met, and when the time comes, it's hard to say who will win and who will lose."

"I really wish I ran into you, that means there won't be pressure."

"You're so arrogant!"

"Thank you again for the compliment. By the way, I wish you a smooth journey......" Zhang Yang and Mourinho ended the conversation full of gunpowder.

In fact, Zhang Yang feels that Mourinho is a respectable opponent, no matter how many shortcomings he has, but I have to admit that his level of leadership is definitely the best in the world, and because of this, Zhang Yang will not use words to 'comfort', which is no different from ridiculing opponents.

Mourinho is not someone who needs sympathy.

Even if Mourinho leaves Chelsea, the two will always be rivals in the next few years or more than ten years, and from this point of view, Mourinho leaving Chelsea is not a big deal, just a change of job.

On the way out of Neil Stadium, Zhang Yang suddenly thought that he had so many sighs, and maybe he was quite concerned about Mourinho's departure, of course Mourinho has nothing to do with him, but also as a Premier League coach, there are still many similarities.

One day, maybe you will face a similar situation?

But it's not a big deal.

If he leaves Millwall one day, it doesn't have to be like the sky is falling, he is not a major shareholder of Millwall, or any other big man, and he is just a salaried manager.

Leaving is a new beginning.
