613 Is the Opponent Worthy of Respect?

The match between Millwall and Chelsea was the highlight of the Premier League's first four rounds.

After the game, there was a discussion all over England that many games were about the process and the result was important, but it was a fascinating game, Chelsea's excellent performance was affirmed by various media, and Millwall won the game and was not the only protagonist.

But when it comes to results, Millwall is still the winner.

After beating Chelsea at home, Millwall's 'unbeaten run' lasted until the round of 52 and many believe their unbeaten run will continue as they face only Sunderland in the next round.

Sunderland won't be easy to beat Millwall.

Many people are looking forward to the next round, Millwall will challenge Manchester United away, and the possibility of losing will only be played when the time comes.

In addition to the continuation of the unbeaten run, Manchester United's defeat is also good news.

Manchester United's match against Bolton Wanderers was the focus with the result, the first time in 15 years of the Premier League that United have lost at Reebok Stadium, and the last time Bolton beat the Reds here was back in 1978.

Manager Alex Ferguson must have been in a bad mood.

An interesting thing happened in the game, as Ferguson was sent off to the stands after angrily yelling at referee Clattenburg in front of the tunnel at the end of the first half.

As the altercation between Ferguson and the referee took place after the half-time whistle, many fans did not know what was going on, and Ferguson himself recounted the scene after the game, stating that the referee should have controlled the "overly presumptuous foul strategy" of the Bolton players.

'I told him what I thought, but there are referees who don't like to hear and don't like to face the facts. I just want to let him know how bad his decision was in the first half. "I know Bolton are fighting for relegation, fighting for survival, they are at the bottom of the table, but they are playing too aggressively and the referee should have given more protection to the United players." ”

Bolton's move was really big.

In the first half, Kevin Davies' takedown of Patrice Evra was almost a sight on the pitch, with sliding tackles and body collisions on the front and side were a regular occurrence, and they were just a microcosm of Bolton's players.

"There was only chaos left in the first half. Foul after foul. I think the opponent's body rushed over the normal scale, and there were 2-3 very hurtful tackles. In this case, you can only count on the referee to have enough authority to stop them, but the referee doesn't. ”

'I don't know why they're staring at Patrice Evra, poor Patrice Evra seems to be brought down every time and the Bolton players make a couple of nasty tackles on him.

Ferguson also stopped talking about the game in the end, saying: "Of course Manchester United don't like to lose, but sometimes you do have to lose, and that's part of football. My players are very strong and I'm sure they'll bounce back soon. ”

Ferguson's mood was certainly not as dashing as his words were.

When Millwall heard the news of Manchester United's loss, they were happier than beating Chelsea, which is a reflection of the league competition.

At the end of the fourteenth round, Millwall ranked first in the league.

Second-placed Arsenal have six points less than Millwall.

Third-placed Manchester United are nine points aless.

That's nine points!

In this case, it does not seem impossible to determine the league title before Christmas, as long as you keep playing every game.

Millwall ushered in the fifth game of the Champions League group stage with a relaxed mentality.

In Group C of the Champions League, Millwall confirmed promotion in advance, and after four rounds, they won three and drew one to get 10 points, Real Madrid won one, drew two and lost one, with only 5 points, Lazio drew three and lost one, with three points, and Olympiacos drew two and lost two, with only two points, and finished at the bottom of the standings.

The Champions League qualification rules are that the top two teams in the group can qualify, and considering the remaining two games, third-placed Lazio are unlikely to catch up with the points, and Millwall has already secured a place in the qualifying places.

The next two games don't matter.

In the fifth round, Millwall hosted Real Madrid, which still attracted a lot of attention, but considering that the league after that is more important, the League Cup quarterfinals also need to be fought for, and Millwall will also participate in the World Club Cup, Zhang Yang decisively gave up the game.

Braniff, rest.

Vardy, rest.

Livermore, rest.

Simpson, rest.

Several core players did not enter the squad, Millwall was most of the substitutes, when the squad for the game was confirmed, Real Madrid coach Schuster took a long breath, feeling that the game was not difficult at the same time, Real Madrid club was very angry.

When did the opponent play Real Madrid and send the substitute lineup?

Intolerable!

It's a pity they couldn't change Millwall's decision.

The Italian media lashed out at Millwall for 'not having a fair play spirit', with only one sentence: "Millwall has a lot of games to play, it's a normal rotation." ”

Anyone in their right mind can understand Millwall's approach.

Millwall have so many games on the table that they will definitely come on as a substitute when dealing with games that don't matter.

Not only the Italian media, but even the media that support Real Madrid began to stand up and criticize "Millwall does not respect Real Madrid", and after Zhang Yang stood up, he began to criticize "Zhang Yang does not respect Real Madrid".

Zhang Yang said...... Doesn't matter.

'I don't understand, what is there to respect for an opponent who loses to us by five goals at home? History? Perhaps, but that's just history. Zhang Yang said, "I only respect opponents of the same level." ”

This sentence completely annoyed Real Madrid supporters.

Zhang Yang was also a little annoyed, the Champions League is not important, the team rotates normally, and the outside media does not do it...... This has a bird-feather relationship with you!

Zhang Yang didn't plan to prepare for the game, but before the game, he told the team to play seriously, and in the five minutes of the game, he replaced Ljungberg with Sneijder, and Weston with Luka Toney.

Two substitutions, both in the fifth minute.

Millwall can say that they switched tactics from the start and paid more attention to the game.

Schuster, who originally thought it was a stable victory, saw two substitutions in a row, and he was a little scolded in his heart, "M-D!" Now Millwall is serious, and the game may not be won! ”

Ned!

Luca Tony!

The appearance of the two main players has greatly strengthened Millwall's strength, especially Sneijder, who was Ljungberg as the core before, Zhang Yang didn't care at all, and it was different with Sneijder, the offense and defense became smooth, and even the speed of offensive and defensive conversion was much faster.

Millwall's sudden change seemed to make Real Madrid a little uncomfortable, and many players still thought, "Millwall will replace two people in five minutes." ”

Then, Millwall scored.

The goal belonged to the youngster Suarez, who received a pass from Maxi and smashed the door of Casillas with a powerful shot that pressed the line of the penalty area.

This match may be destined to belong to Suarez.

The second goal of the game came in the 41st minute, when Suarez assisted Luca Toney to score the goal.

Half time, one pass and one shot!

At half-time, everyone was talking about Suarez, and everyone was talking about Real Madrid, who were two goals down.

Millwall is a substitute!

Even if the two main players are replaced at the beginning, Real Madrid should not play so badly!

In the second half, Real Madrid, who seemed to be fighting for face, performed much better, suppressed Millwall for a while, and also scored in the 71st minute.

Unfortunately, there is only one.

In the end, Millwall won at home to Real Madrid.

After the game, the Spanish media, who supported Real Madrid, all shut up.

Millwall sent a substitute line-up, and with several key players not playing, Real Madrid still lost the game.

What is there to say?

As Zhang Yang said before the game, "What is there to respect for an opponent who loses to us by five goals at home?" ”

The result of this game was almost a deep stab in the heart of Real Madrid.
