Platini was furious at UEFA headquarters when he saw Millwall's pre-match press conference before leaving for Italy!

Aldrich has made the word clear!

If you have the ability, you will change the rules immediately!

Otherwise, when I defend the Champions League in three months' time, UEFA will still have to give away the real Champions League trophy!

But if UEFA really changes the rules at this juncture, it will inevitably be ridiculed by the world!

Platini, who is making his debut to the top of the game, is under a lot of pressure, especially in the Champions League, where the giants are still the ruling group.

Especially the Premier League teams.

Millwall, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea.

In the round of 16, the Premier League took four!

And because of the round of 16 draw rules, they will not meet, according to the strong momentum of the Premier League at this time, maybe the top 8 places, the Premier League will occupy half of the country, even if the European Football team moves their hands and feet, let them catch each other, but to break into the top four, there will still be two Premier League teams!

What he promised looks like it won't be fulfilled anytime soon.

The top priority in front of him is: if Millwall wins the Champions League for four consecutive years, UEFA will not only have to award the real trophy to Millwall, which will be ridiculous and generous, at the same time, the European pattern may be more difficult to change, Millwall is strong, and the attention brought to the Premier League will also increase, relatively, the Premier League is a league, and the distribution system will also benefit other teams, unlike La Liga, Real Madrid Barcelona left the other 18 teams to enjoy exclusive benefits.

In the dead of night, when he was alone, Platini's heart echoed: Millwall can't defend his title, he can't let Millwall defend his title

On 21 February, Millwall travelled to challenge Inter Milan. This is the second season in a row that the two teams have met in European competition. As the biggest beneficiary of the "phonegate" incident. Inter Milan's squad strength has been well strengthened, such as the introduction of Ibrahimovic in the front line, the poaching of McCone from Ligue 1, the magical Grosso to join, and so on.

Roberto Mancini has developed a 4312 formation that looks very formidable for Inter Milan in Italy, and has been praised in the league for his technical and tactical system.

In fact, to put it bluntly, Inter Milan's overall strength crushes other opponents in the league, it's as simple as that. It doesn't make much sense to talk about the advantages and disadvantages of technique and tactics when there is a huge disparity between strength and weakness.

Millwall will play the Carabao Cup final in four days' time, so they will be slightly conservative in the first leg of this Champions League knockout round, but on the field, the Serie A leaders lost face at home and were completely suppressed by Millwall!

Aldridge's pre-match request was simple: there may not be many great chances, but they must be seized!

They did not play a devastating rhythm, but based on control.

However, at the end of the 90 minutes, the score was 0:0.

Aldridge went into a rage after returning to the dressing room after the game.

Messi and Ronaldo, the two of them were scolded by him!

"Is this your cousin? Want to score your own goals? But what? I can't score again! When teammates have a chance. Why not pass it on? Why is someone in front of you blocking your shot line and forcing your feet? You have failed the efforts of your teammates! You have disappointed me so much! Selfish ghosts! Give me a memory. Millwall's team interests always come first! Your holiday will be cancelled when you go back to the club, so I'll be in the dressing room of the youth team! Take a good look at the slogan on the wall, the one you've seen so many times in the youth team: Play for yourself, you play for your opponents! Playing for the team is playing for yourself! ”

Aldridge is generally not angry, but he started to fire, even the onlookers were silent, Ronaldo and Messi did not dare to have any rebuttal, bowed their heads and left Milan with the team slightly depressed.

The 0-0 result was a bit disappointing, but for Millwall the advantage of promotion remained on their side, and when they returned home in two weeks' time, they needed to beat Inter Milan to progress to the quarter-finals.

After returning to London, Messi and Ronaldo did not dare to disobey Aldridge's orders, and other players had a holiday, and they went to the youth team, which attracted the attention of youth team players such as Bale and Reus, but they came to the dressing room in casual clothes, sat quietly on the bench and looked up at the slogan on the wall, which has been posted on the wall for many years.

In the League Cup final this weekend, Aldridge still sent Ronaldo and Messi on the field at the same time, he didn't say anything, but Ronaldo and Messi both understood that this League Cup final was a test for them!

If the "selfish" table against Inter Milan in midweek is continued, then it is very likely that Aldridge will be abandoned!

The reason is very simple, I didn't win.

Nothing is a problem to win.

Can't win, any small problem is a big problem!

Hiddink has already been taught a lesson in the league, with Aldridge taking on Hiddink again in the Carabao Cup final today.

Millwall's strong midfield control, coupled with the excellent play of the new attack group, especially Ronaldo and Messi are no longer "selfish", Millwall's attack has regained its vitality, the ball is transferred very quickly, and the individual breakthrough is just right, plus Kaka and Villa's threading in the middle and the shift of the offensive focus to them from time to time, Millwall defeated Chelsea 2-0 in 90 minutes to win the League Cup, Ronaldo and Messi each made a contribution.

Aldridge highlighted the team's philosophy to them once again during the victory celebrations, and it seemed that the game also justified their midweek criticism.

Look, when you play for yourself, you can't score goals, you can't win goals.

When you played for the team, you scored, we won, and now we celebrate with the trophy!

Riding on the momentum of winning the Carabao Cup, Millwall sent substitutes to recharge their batteries in the league, and ten days later, they faced Inter Milan at the Lion King Stadium.

March 8th.

The Lion King Stadium is packed, Millwall fans have no worries about this game, as long as they beat their opponents to advance, just looking at the first leg of Inter Milan's attack, even if there are Adriano and Ibrahimovic two god-like strikers, but their attack is very weak, because the midfield control zhì is at a disadvantage.

Aldridge's mentality for this game was still very normal, but on the day of the game, UEFA suddenly changed the referee team, citing the unwell of the previously designated referee, and when he saw the temporary referee, his face was very ugly.

This person, he will not forget jì, although the memory is very vague, but after seeing it now, he has a sense of foreboding.

The referee is: Tom Hening!

Aldridge couldn't protest anything out of thin air, and when he walked into the court, he comforted himself as much as he could: everything was a coincidence, how could there be so many conspiracy theories? Don't mess around!

He walked into the Lion King Stadium, where the crowd greeted him with a tidal wave of cheers.

Aldridge walked to shake hands with Mancini, Mancini was proud in Serie A, but when he came to the Champions League, he was really walking on thin ice mentally, and he tried his best not to expose the timidity in his heart in front of Aldridge.

Players from both teams came out in good spirits.

"The second leg of the 2006-2007 Champions League quarter-finals is about to begin, the defending champion Millwall is at home to Inter Milan, the first leg of the two teams drew 0:0 in Meazza and today, they will play a life-and-death battle at the Lion King Stadium!

Let's take a look at the starting line-ups for both sides.

Millwall started 433.

Goalkeeper: Gianluigi Buffon.

Defenders: Ramos, Nesta, Silva, Lahm.

Midfielders: De Rossi, Alonso, Kaka.

Forwards: Messi, Villa, Ronaldo.

Inter Milan started 4312.

Goalkeeper: Cesar.

Defenders: McConn, Materazzi, Córdoba, Grosso.

Midfielders: Zanetti, Vieira, Cambiasso, Stankovic.

Forwards: Adriano, Ibrahimovic. ”

A habit that has been cultivated over the years, Aldridge has been able to concentrate entirely on the game as soon as it starts.

Usually this kind of concentration will automatically ignore the referee's existence, and the most perfect referee itself should be invisible.

With the roar of the Lion King Stadium, Millwall quickly launched an offensive at home!

The whole team of players entered the game very quickly, and as soon as the game started, they pulled up the tempo, passed quickly, moved back and forth, and tore the opponent's defense.

After two lateral transitions back and forth in the midfield, the ball came to the feet of Messi, and the Argentine prodigy, who has established himself as a regular this season, began to show his simple and practical skills!

He stopped the ball from the right sideline and started, yearning to take a step back to shake off Cambiaso who came up to intercept, and then cut inside to get rid of Cambiaso, when Vieira assisted in the defense and Grosso closed the defense, Messi continued to accelerate the dribbling, rushed between the two, and dodged Vieira's tackle!

When he came to the penalty area, Messi did not stick to the ball again, and as Vieira's defense was broken, the space in the middle had come out, and he immediately passed the ball to Villa, who ran to the center forward position!

Just as his foot passed the ball out, someone stuck out from his front and stepped on his ankle, causing him to scream and fall to the ground!

Villa knew what to do when he was on the run, he kicked the ball out and slammed it down in front of Materazzi, Kaka slotted it out from behind him, led it into the box, and slotted it on!

However, the referee's whistle blew!

Penalty for a foul on Inter Milan!

Kaka ignored the whistle, and almost in the next second, he volleyed directly and violently, and the ball went straight into the net!

After the goal, Kaka turned around and found that the goal was invalid, and Messi, in pain, fell outside the penalty area with one hand to cover his face, slapped the turf with the other, and Córdoba standing in front of him spread his hands to show that he did not intentionally foul!

Referee Henin signaled Millwall to get a free kick outside the box, and he only gave a verbal warning to Córdoba, not even showing a yellow card! (To be continued......)
