785 Deadgame

Thanks to the tips of "Thief Death", "Qingqing Little Wolf", "Ivjun" and "0ss0"! ――

Aldrich, who had been standing on the sidelines since the beginning of the game, had a calm face and a confident look in his eyes.

Millwall is at home, Real Madrid is here to turn the tables, to work hard, but, from the beginning, Real Madrid's attack from the middle can not advance at all.

Compared to the first leg, Millwall's central defence was clearly tougher!

Nedved played in midfield today, not as a midfielder, compressing the midfield line in the starting area, and the retreat defense certainly didn't have time to return to position.

Gattuso and Nedved are both tough guys who can't run to death, the defense is tenacious and tough, and with the cooperation of Pirlo's mobile human wall, Millwall is very effective in sniping Real Madrid's attack in the midfield.

Real Madrid had to move the attack to the wing, but it was very difficult to move back to the middle when they went to the wing, they were obviously not calm enough in their mentality, they couldn't bear it, a wave of attacking iron rushed forward, there was no idea of braking and controlling the rhythm, maybe the pressure of having to score at least 3 goals was affecting their mentality.

Even if they beat Millwall 2-0 on the road, they will be eliminated because they have scored fewer goals on the road than Millwall, so they will have to score three goals at least and limit Millwall from scoring.

Millwall's focus on attacking areas today will be decided on the spot or on the basis of the opposition's start, now that Elgra has withdrawn to play at centre-back. Then the defensive strength of the back line will decrease.

Why is Aldrich so confident?

Of course, it's a matter of Real Madrid's configuration.

Especially when Figora is on the side. Millwall organized an offensive. The midfield is their world, and Zidane behind them, as well as Raul, who is further away, naturally can't keep up with the speed of their attack.

In the 11th minute of the game, after several consecutive attempts to attack, Millwall was roughly familiar with Real Madrid's defensive system today, and after figuring out the opponent's strength and arrangement, they would show their killer skills.

When Salgado wanted to repeat his old trick and play the ball from the side to find Morientes. Zambrotta didn't give him this opportunity, Millwall's midfield defense was very hard today, and he didn't worry about being counterattacked by the opponent, Nedved could go back, Zambrotta didn't have to be included in the penalty area, Salgado took the ball, and Zambrotta blocked it directly with his body.

The ball bounced forward, Pirlo pulled the ball to the side, Solari quickly came to counter-attack, Pirlo and Nedved hit the wall twice in a row to stun Solari. Pirlo, a little further back in the back, rushed forward with the ball before Salgado could get back in touch. Andrea Pirlo kicked the ball straight in front of the wing.

The full-back of Real Madrid on this side was not in position, Henry had space to take the ball behind the side, and Hierro did not dare to go out of the penalty area to help defend and hold the dangerous area of the penalty area.

Thierry Henry slowed down slightly when he saw that Real Madrid's players were still a long way to go, and his explosiveness was enough to terrify Hierro.

Dribbling to the edge of the penalty area, Henry cut in from the side, Hierro came up, he couldn't retreat, if the area of the 45-degree angle of the penalty area was vacated to Henry, it was not good that Henry could come to the far corner to break the goal, and in the last round Henry picked the ball and half-turned and volleyed the amazing work he will never forget.

Makelele saw two players in the middle of Millwall at high speed, Nedved and Kaka!

Kaka in front, Nedved in the back.

In this game, it was clear that Millwall was more swift in the middle than in the previous game, and the effect was that the defensive pressure in the middle of the penalty area skyrocketed as Real Madrid weakened the defensive line at the back.

Choose one of the two, with whom?

Makelle had a big head and eventually chose to go with Kaka, but not completely, while trying to get as close to Henry as possible to block his pass.

Henry suddenly started to change direction, choosing to kill in the direction of the baseline, and his move caused the entire Real Madrid defense to retreat, and in this change of rhythm, Henry kicked the ball back and passed it back to Nedved.

Nedved didn't rush forward, and Henry's bottom created more space for him, but Makelele reacted quickly and rushed out as soon as possible to block the angle of Nedved's long-range shot.

Nedved watched his former team-mate rush forward, calmly dribbling sideways to the angle, and then with a flick of his ankle as Makelle stretched his leg to block, the bocce ball was passed behind Makelele.

Makelle was full of surprise, Nedved didn't shoot!

Behind him?

Elgra, it's up to you!

Hierro was definitely pinned down by Henry, and the only person Makelele could count on was Elgra.

However, Elguera was also pinned down by Larsson, who was cutting inside and running, although he was trying to find a balance, in fact, at that moment, Elgra was more like being sandwiched between Kaka and Larsson, Carlos seemed to be sticking to Larsson's side, but he was on the periphery, if Larsson cut inside to receive the shot, what could Carlos do from behind Larsson?

Elgra saw Nedved's passing line and immediately moved to the right, he completely abandoned Larsson, the target Kaka!

The ball was a right-footed pass from Kaka, the goal was less than 12 yards in front of Kaka, goalkeeper Cesar abandoned the goal, Elgra came to block, Kaka knew he had no chance to adjust, so he turned slightly sideways and quickly swept the shot!

He touched the ball first than Elgra, the ball swept towards Real Madrid's goal, Cesar subconsciously reached out to block, and his fingertips really touched the ball, making the ball change direction slightly, but the distance was too close, Kaka deliberately made a force, the ball was extremely fast, and flew into Real Madrid's goal!

"Kaka! Kaka! Kaka, who turned 20 on his birthday just four days ago, scored! He opened the scoring for Millwall! Hall's surprise team reciprocated the miracle, Millwall led Real Madrid 1-0 at home, and the aggregate score was 6-3! Real Madrid now have to score at least 4 goals to qualify for the final! ”

Kaka quickly got up from the ground after scoring the goal, and there were many female fans in the stands holding up his posters with excitement and long-lasting applause. This is the affirmation and encouragement from the home team's fans for the young players.

Kaka pointed his fingers to the sky after chattering. Start running all the way. On the way he high-fived Larsson in celebration before the home team's coach's box ran wildly.

Aldridge was ready to high-five Kaka in celebration, he bent down and stretched out his palm and laughed, more like a boxer about to punch, but Kaka rushed over and jumped directly on Aldridge and hugged him head-on!

Four days ago, Kaka turned 20 and the club celebrated his birthday the day before the match against Charlton. At the same time, Kaka was given a new contract and his salary doubled.

He only joined last summer, but this season as a first-team substitute, his growth, as well as his performance on the field, have been recognized by the coaching staff, especially this kid is obedient, a good baby, and doesn't cause trouble off the field, not even going to nightclubs. Millwall offered him a new contract less than a year after he joined, just to keep him. A manifestation of his firm determination to lock in his future.

Kaka was so grateful for this that although his father took it for granted and even felt that Millwall was being paid less, Kaka happily signed the contract.

Aldrich's expectations for him are actually a kind of pressure, so when Kaka hugged Aldrich, he said something that made Aldrich cry and laugh.

"Boss, I didn't disappoint you, did I?"

Aldridge patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, it's just a game, you're only 20 years old, there's still a long time to come, it's the Champions League semi-final, yes, but it's just a game at the beginning of your career, it doesn't mean anything." ”

Kaka smiled, and was surrounded by his teammates.

Aldridge kept waving his arms up and down, and the Lion King Stadium, which had already ignited passion, became even more boiling, and the atmosphere was extraordinary.

He casually glanced at Bosque, who was sinking like water on the coach's bench next door, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.

Is Millwall playing 442 today?

No, Millwall is playing 433 today!

Kaka is actually a shadow striker, ambushed behind Larsson and Henry, there are two killers in front of him to contain and tear up the defensive line, and then Nedved comes up to press the back line, Nedved, Larsson, Henry, these three points are undoubtedly more famous than Kaka, and they are more threatening than he looks, but Millwall's offensive core, in the opening stage, Aldridge made it very clear to the team: You just want to give Kaka a chance!

If Real Madrid wants to attack, can they rely on the frontcourt players to play positional battles slowly? No, the full-backs will definitely go up, at least one up, one up, and the lateral area of the backline will be expanded.

Larsson and Henry's deterrence from the side, even if Real Madrid does the defense perfectly, at least it will be two defenders diagonally facing Larsson and Henry, if Makelele and Kaka, Nedved can use their heavy artillery ability on the periphery, if Makelele comes to block Nedved, then Kaka's forward insertion, at least is a one-on-one opportunity, and into the penalty area, as long as there is space, angle, and kick, why bother to pass the defender and the goalkeeper one-on-one?

It was still in a perfect situation, just now, Real Madrid's defence was not perfect.

It's not so much that Aldridge sent a surprise soldier and Kaka played a miracle effect, but that Millwall today in the absence of Ronaldo, the frontcourt attack group sublimated the tactical effect of team cooperation, Henry and Larsson can be cultivated by Aldridge, and the awareness of covering Kaka on the front line, without hesitation, which reflects Millwall's team foundation even more.

From the first minute of this game, Real Madrid actually fell into a dead end, they had to attack, but in terms of attacking and defending rhythms, Millwall was obviously faster than them, and in the midfield configuration, Aldridge thought Millwall was stronger than Real Madrid, even if the opponent had Zidane, Figo, and Makellele.

But in the final analysis, in the efficiency of alignment, Makelele defends, Gattuso is not bad, Zidane's starting organization area is in the front and back of the center circle, Pirlo is specialized in this, personal ability assault, lack of Xiao Luo, Millwall may not be able to compete with Figo, but they attack and defend at a fast pace, simply play the speed advantage, Kaka, Larsson, Henry, which speed is slow? The most important comparison is Nedved's play.

Zidane is a master of technology, Nedved is a fighter, the two are not comparable, and the position role is not the same, so it is meaningless to compare the two, Zidane's organizational role is to be compared with Pirlo, after the last game, in the technical statistics, Pirlo passed more than Zidane in the statistics of the time period before he was replaced, and the success rate is basically the same. Although Zidane is better than Andrea Pirlo in terms of dribbles and goals, Aldridge doesn't value them.

Nedved is not the core of the defense, not the core of the organization, not the core of the offense, but Nedved can become the spiritual leader of Millwall, because the transition of attack and defense requires a team like him and a player like him to save the whole team, so that the entire team of Millwall can be sublimated again after quantifying their ability!

This is obviously not enough when the coach has exhausted his calculations and organized the defense, organization, and offense, because even with the strongest defensive commander, you cannot lead a defensive line to directly face the impact of the opponent's attack group and stand still, the strongest organizational core cannot simply send shells to the attack group, and the strongest offensive core cannot be continuously invincible.

Coincidentally, this concept is being implemented by Real Madrid in the coming years.

Top defenders, top playmakers, top strikers, why is Real Madrid getting farther and farther away from the championship?

Aldridge feels that Real Madrid is missing an element, the lubricant that shapes the whole, the catalyst that sublimates the team, and connects the whole perfectly, he is very lucky, he has Nedved, if he is missing, Millwall's defensive pressure will rise sharply, and the offensive power will plummet, yes, he is not the tactical core, but he is the most critical fighter under Aldridge, the offensive core can be replaced, the organizational core Aldridge is also ready to be replaced, and the defensive core will also enter the rhythm of renewal in the next few years, It's a player like Nedved, how he wishes Nedved could be ten years younger.

He never thinks about who is stronger in the original history of Juventus's Zidane and the later "successor" Nedved, Zidane is a master of art, and Nedved, the iron man, will become a grandmaster of his own generation ten years later. (To be continued......)
