Ahead of the start of the season in September, the Spanish media did a lot of analysis of La Liga's teams, with a focus on Real Madrid and Barcelona.

The two "Western Super League" teams have made large reinforcements.

Real Madrid spent a lot of money to buy Pepe, Drenthe, Heinze and Robben in a row, and signed Dudek, Saviola and Metzeld for free, and the eight new signings cost nearly 80 million euros.

Barcelona have a smaller bill of almost €72 million, bringing in stars such as Thierry Henry, Junior Toure, G-Milito and Abidal.

Barcelona has invested little in reinforcements, but the media is optimistic about its "stability", Rijkaard continues to coach, and Ronaldinho is still in the team, which will make Barcelona stable.

Where Real Madrid is not favored is still the coach Schuster, who has always been questioned, and most of the media do not believe that he is qualified to take the whip of Real Madrid.

Zhang Yang's view is very different.

In the memory of the previous life, 2008 will be an important turning point for Barcelona, and it is also the dividing line between the "Dream Team II" and the "Dream Team III", at the end of the season, Ronaldinho will leave, Rijkaard will leave, what happened is not clear, but there must be a lot of turmoil within Barcelona, and there will be nothing in the Champions League, the league and the domestic cup.

It was a season of defeat for Barcelona.

Schuster's time in Barcelona's decline, entering Real Madrid to take charge of the whip, can be said to be quite lucky, otherwise whether he can coach until the end of the season will be a huge suspense.

There is no crisis in Schuster now, but Zhang Yang feels that it will not be necessary in the future, for example, when the game is over and Millwall defeats Real Madrid, the Real Madrid club and fans will definitely not be satisfied, and the Spanish media will also be dissatisfied.

Schuster does have that pressure.

A good league result does not mean that the manager is stable, and the Germans know very well that the best way to stabilize the position is to make a breakthrough in the Champions League.

In recent seasons, Real Madrid has almost become a "sixteenth mother", and when it reaches the top 16, it will fall, and fans are about to lose confidence. If he can maintain the league results and get excellent results in the Champions League, his position as head coach will be stable.

At present, there are two ways to stabilize the position: one is to achieve good results in the league, and the other is to lead the team to play offensive football.

Now is the time to fight for the third.

Millwall!

If he can get revenge on Millwall, it will definitely make the club and the fans very satisfied, and the Spanish media will change their tone and praise him for leading the team to improve.

Schuster is also very confident that Madrid's squad is too flashy, even if it is played at will, it is not something that ordinary teams can beat, maybe Millwall's results are good, but they are not in the ranks of "can beat Real Madrid", even if they are the defending champions.

Compare the lineups.

Schuster looked at the front line and was very confident.

That's a Van Nigalore combination!

Ruud van Nistelrooy, the former Premier League's top scorer, quickly became the team's top scorer since arriving at Real Madrid, scoring 25 goals in 37 league appearances last season, a rare example in Europe.

Raul, the prince of the Bernabeu, has remained efficient even in his age, scoring not many goals in nine league games last season, but Raul has more assists, reaching thirteen.

Such a gorgeous combination is not comparable to Millwall.

Vardy?

Luca Toney?

Hehe.

Zhang Yang has a completely different view, he does agree with the strength of Real Madrid's forward line, but professional football has always been about new players replacing old players, and Ruud van Nistelrooy is very good, but under Millwall's tactical system, Vardy is no less efficient.

Luka Toney is also a very efficient goalscorer, and if he performs well, he can also compete with Ruud van Nistelrooy.

In addition, Millwall is not like Real Madrid, playing in a state of "scattered sand", the team's offensive efficiency, mainly not the play of a single player, but glued into a whole, the support of the midfield, the tacit understanding of the midfield, etc., these are more important.

Compared to the two teams, the gap is also in the backfield.

Real Madrid's backline is too gorgeous, and the combination of Cannavaro and Pepe must be completely superior to Darren Ward, or one of the two, which is strong enough to be better than Ward.

Millwall is in a 352 formation, and the support of the two midfielders to the defense is also difficult to compare with Real Madrid's gorgeous lineup.

This is where there is a gap.

But it's just this gap, Millwall's midfield is no less than Real Madrid, and even better than Real Madrid.

Zhang Yang sent the best combination - Braniff, Morris, Livermore, and even Sneijder was on the bench, the veterans worked better together, and Pire and Simpson also played on the wings.

On the pitch is Millwall's strongest squad.

Real Madrid is no stranger to Millwall's lineup, last season the two teams played each other, the players were similar, the only difference is Luca Toney, they are still very confident, but at the beginning of the game, Millwall used performance to show that even if the personnel are similar, after changing a season, the team is completely different.

In the offensive battle, the 352 formation immediately came into play.

Real Madrid thought they had a strong lineup, but when they really fought with Millwall, they couldn't play an advantage at all, they continued to attack the midfield, faced with tough pressing, and it was not easy to pass and cooperate.

The gap between the two sides is directly manifested in tactics.

Millwall's players' strength and performance are not as good as Real Madrid's, but at the beginning of the away game, they suppressed Real Madrid, the reason is that the coordination is more fluent, a set of small cooperation is played, and the Real Madrid midfield is quickly penetrated.

Millwall played a much more consistent game, a little slower than they started the game, but it was still not something that Real Madrid could adapt to, and they continued to run back and forth on the pitch, with most players having difficulty touching the ball.

Millwall is a continuous fast attack, continuous passing, dazzling coordination, seemingly inadvertently, passing the ball to a threatening position.

In the face of such a threatening attack, Real Madrid's defence was in a panic.

Only ten minutes into the game, Cannavaro more than once used an angry yelling to alert his teammates to their positions.

Real Madrid's fighting spirit is still strong, most of the players hope to beat Millwall, and they are very positive on the field, but the fast-paced running, before they know it, they find themselves tired and out of breath, and the game situation has not changed for the better.

This also made many players very helpless.

What the hell is going on?

Do we run so hard, fight so actively, or are we constantly controlled by the opponent and threatened by the opponent's goal?

Is it the strength gap?

The latter judgment feels incredible, they are a powerful Real Madrid, everyone in the team is a top star, and together they should be powerful, why is it not as good as Millwall, who has always been uneyed?

That's what the game is!

Many of the players on the pitch felt a little helpless, and after continuous running, they also felt a little tired, and when Millwall launched another wave of attack, some players simply slackened and ran back aggressively.

It only took a single slack for Millwall to find a chance when Morris, who had cut in midfield, sent the ball to the edge of the box with a diagonal cross.

This pass is quite amazing!

No matter how gorgeous Real Madrid's defense is, the stars are all ordinary people, they can't run at a speed of 100 meters and 5 seconds, and it's too late to block, and some players retreat slowly, so they can only watch the football roll over.

Pire rushed!

From the beginning of the season to the present, Pire has been one of the best performers, even if he is older, less physically fit, and has limited playing time, he has been able to perform consistently and well every time he appears.

It's the same this time.

Pire left the players around him, rushed towards the path of the ball, and swung his left foot hard, Real Madrid did not underestimate Pire, Cannavaro blocked the shooting route for the first time, and Pepe also came to intercept behind him.

The interception by the two centre-backs gave Real Madrid a little relief, and the next moment they noticed that Pire's raised left foot, fluttering down, kicked the ball towards the right side of the penalty area.

There it is...... Luca Tony!

Cannavaro was all gone, with Jamie Vardy restrained on the left and Luca Toney with a metre unattended and a flurry of his right foot.

Push!

No matter how high the level of goalkeeper Casillas is, he can only look at the ball and sigh in the face of the push that almost pressed the small penalty line.

"Tony!!"

"Luca Toney ——!!"

“Gooooal！！”

"Just fourteen minutes into the game, Toney helped Millwall to find the back of the door held by Casillas! They took the lead by one goal away from home! ”

"Tony, cool push!"

"Cannavaro was deceived in this ball, Pepe also had a blocking action, but Pire didn't choose to shoot, he deceived Real Madrid's two central defenders in one action, it's really worth it!"

'We noticed that Vardy was behind Pepeca, but Pire's direction was on the right and Toney was in a very good position!'

"Millwall players have a very tacit understanding with each other, they used continuous cooperation to easily break through the Real Madrid defence, and used tacit understanding to easily complete the goal and take the lead at the Bernabeu!"

“……”

After Luca Toney scored the goal, many people were analysing the process and praising Millwall for their overall cooperation, which was what made the goal.

As for individual players, such as Toney's play, some have been overlooked.

It's a given.

The goal just now, Maurice to Pire, Pire to Toney, two wonderful passes in a row, completely penetrated Real Madrid's defense, during which other players also contributed, and they attracted enough attention.

Like, Braniff.

Braniff wasn't involved in the attack, but in the early hours he showed Real Madrid how dangerous he was.

In the process of completing the attack, Braniff was defended in front and back, and he couldn't run out at all, so naturally he wouldn't have a chance.

Vardy, too, caught Pepe's attention.

Toney is also a player who is well defended, but no matter how dense Real Madrid's defense is, it is impossible not to miss people completely, Morris's pass, attracted too much attention, Toney is the only one who is missed, Pire made a short judgment and quickly pushed the ball over, which also proved that the on-the-spot response was excellent.

The goal was scored by Millwall as a whole.

In the face of this gorgeous goal, the Real Madrid players were helpless, they paid enough attention to defense, but a mistake was seized by the opponent, and the game went to this point, and some players questioned in their hearts, "Can we really beat Millwall to complete revenge?" "They compared and found that the overall style of play and coordination were much worse than Millwall.

In fact, the game has just begun.

Zhang Yang was also very happy to see the goal, but the game had only been played for more than ten minutes, and there was still a lot of time, so he didn't show too much joy, just sat on the spot and clapped his hands a few times.

Zhang Yang's old friend, BBC radio commentator Lineker, jokingly analyzed, "Zhang Yang doesn't seem to be very happy with the goal. Probably he thought the goal came too late? Ten minutes, probably a little late, compared to the two teams, Millwall scored quickly and continuously, it is not impossible. ”

Lineker is expressing his disdain for Real Madrid's performance.

And so it is.

Everyone can see the difference in performance between Real Madrid and Millwall, and many people think that Real Madrid is in the first place in the league and also disdain La Liga.

Real Madrid just didn't play well in this game?

Or is Millwall doing too well?

Many people tend to have both, but in any case, the score has been rewritten, and then Real Madrid, the performance does not seem to have changed, Millwall relied on continuous fast attacks, won a lot of initiative, and played more smoothly overall.

Some fans who had just turned on the TV and watched the game for a few minutes were incredible, "Is this really Real Madrid vs. Millwall?" How does it feel like Millwall is beating a small ball club......"

Real Madrid's fans are very dissatisfied, but their dissatisfaction does not affect the game, and then Real Madrid's performance, there is still no big change, they were completely suppressed by Millwall, for 20 minutes in a row, did not play a decent attack, it looks a little out of rhythm, a closer look can be found that Real Madrid is still very hard, most of the players are very positive, but no matter how hard they try, they can't change the situation.

Many people don't understand it.

Zhang Yang is obvious, the gap between the two sides is in the tactics and overall cooperation, now it can be said that Millwall is a very mature team, the lineup, cooperation, and tacit understanding are quite good, Real Madrid is like a group of stars, a new team put together, can not play tacit understanding at all, tactically speaking, the gap between the two sides is even greater.

Millwall's 352 formation likes to play against opponents the most.

If it is still Fabio Capello's Real Madrid, it will be very difficult for Millwall to play to the advantage.

But Schuster's Real Madrid?

A team that has not yet matured, and the new players in the team and the others have not cooperated, suddenly changed their style of play and played flashy attacking football, and I don't know what the Germans think......
