Chapter 407: No Contrast, No Harm

Italian media hope that Mirvoor will not let go of the water. Only when Mirvoor defeats Valencia, Roma's qualifying situation will be considered good. Otherwise, as long as they fail to defeat Donetsk miners, they will not even be qualified to challenge Valencia away.

The Spanish media holds an indifferent attitude.

Valencia's qualifying situation is good enough.

This game doesn't matter at all. In fact, as long as Roma can defeat Donetsk miners, the game between Valencia and Mirvoor becomes irrelevant. Whether it is a win or a loss, Valencia must compete with Roma in the last round for the remaining places. Only if Valencia does not lose to Roma, he will be able to qualify in the group.

The Spanish media still hope that Valencia can win because Valencia can also represent some Spanish football, but Valencia won is definitely not because his opponent's "letting go" out, otherwise he would have no face to win.

Some Spanish media have also constantly emphasized, "Milwall must not let go! You must compete seriously! You must have professional spirit!"

These reports left Zhang Yang speechless.

Mirwall has already qualified early. It is Mirwall's own business whether to play against Valencia, but it seems that the whole world requires Mirwall to give his all?

Mirwall will work hard, but there is no need to fight Valencia.

There is no point in doing that.

Zhang Yang was not affected at all. How to arrange it or how to arrange it. Millwall sent a "semi-main lineup". While some main players appeared, some substitute players also allowed to play.

The backcourt is the biggest place to rotate, and Traore and Aberoa both got the chance.

Midfielder Sean Davis starts.

The starting forward became Curtis Weston, Darren Bent did not make the roster, and Vardy only sat on the bench.

When the FA announced the roster and starting lineup submitted by Millwall, the media immediately judged it as a ‘substitute lineup’. The biggest proof is Curtis Weston’s starting lineup, but the media was also surprised at the gorgeousness of Millwall’s semi-substitute lineup.

Although it was a half-substitute and the midfielder had a Sean Davis, Quaresma, Braniff and Simpson could be said to be the main players, not to mention Livermore, who has been able to play for thousands of years.

Thinking about Smitchell, Morris, Pire, and the media who did not play all think that Millwall's midfield substitute is actually no different from the main midfield players, and his performance will not be weaker than the main lineup.

There are many rotation players in the backcourt, and Zambrota has not played, but the most prominent part of Millwall is always the frontcourt, and the only forward is Curtis Weston, who is the most criticized.

Millwall had two big strikers, but he sent a young player who didn't play very well, obviously letting the young player go to the training instead of dealing with Valencia with all his heart.

The media reporters had something to say before the game, and they questioned Millwall's lineup-

"Why didn't Darren Bent make the roster?"

"The starter is Curtis Weston? Does Millwall not pay attention to the game?"

"This is not the main lineup!"

Faced with the doubts of the lineup, Zhang Yang ignored it completely and kept praising Curtis Weston. "Curtis is Millwall's youth training player, and he can represent Millwall's youth training power. Curtis is one of Millwall's best strikers. I believe he can perform very well!"

“…”

Media reporters complained in their hearts, "This is called lying with your eyes open!"

Curtis Weston represents Millwall's youth training power? So what does Darren Ward do! What does Livermore do! What does Josh Simpson do!

The above three people were all famous stars, that is, Curtis Weston, who is not very famous.

But Zhang Yang had something to say, "Curtis is still very young. He is only nineteen years old. He is one of the youngest players in the team. He has an infinite and vast future. I believe that he will not only become the future of Millwall, but also the future of English football!"

All right!

The media reporters were so in a word that they couldn't say anything. Curtis Weston was indeed the youngest in Millwall's first team, and he was more than ten days younger than Vardy.

Such a young player is quite amazing to be able to play as a substitute at Millwall!

But this has nothing to do with whether Millwall puts all his efforts!

Zhang Yang doesn’t care about that much, he is still optimistic about Weston. Weston is very young and has good skills. Being a substitute forward is enough. Although he has a gap with Vardy and Darren Bente, youth is an advantage. Maybe he can grow up in the future?

No one can say this!

Now the chance to face Valencia's game in the Champions League is that Curtis Weston will be able to take a proper rest, and Darren Bent and Valdi, who are constantly playing.

———

Spanish media keep saying that Mirwall can face the game normally, hoping that Valencia can defeat the "strongest" Mirwall.

But Flores doesn't think so!

With the experience of playing against Millwall last time, looking at Millwall's Champions League and League results, he knew very well that Millwall, who was the main player, would play at home, and it would be difficult for Valencia to win.

This is a face-to-face battle, and only by winning can face-to-face be regained!

Regardless of whether Mirwall sends all the main players, as long as Valencia wins, it will be saved. At that time, Valencia can say that they defeated Mirwall away.

Flores hopes Millwall will send a substitute, and Valencia players think so.

Anyone likes to experience the pleasure of abuse. It is interesting to compete with the strong, but the feeling of abuse is more comfortable. I found that Mirwall sent a substitute, and Valencia could be described as "cheering and thrilling". In the first round of the fight, Darren Bent put too much pressure on them. Now that the opponent sent a rookie forward, the threat is definitely much less, and they can play more easily.

But Millwall never gave up on the game!

When Zhang Yang was mobilizing pre-warly in the locker room, he said to the players seriously, "I know the game is not important. And we also rotated, but this is not for you to rest, nor is it for you to give up the game! The outside world is saying that we will let go and will not play seriously, and think that we don't have to fight Valencia to the death, which is simply an insult to us!"

"My team has no distinction between main players and substitutes, and you are not the so-called 'substitute lineup', but whoever is not serious in the game, I don't mind making him a real substitute!"

———

Valencia was looking forward to defeating Mirvoor, and they would complete the victory revenge, but at the beginning of the game, they found something was wrong.

This 'Milwall substitute lineup' is not the target of casual abuse!

With his home advantage, Millwall suppressed Valencia, Sean Davis and Josh Simpson's "dual core" formed by it was still full of power.

This is not surprising at all.

Zhang Yang has formulated personal tactical plans for the "semi-main forces", and they also have personal tactics and no longer have to adapt to other people's tactics.

Josh Simpson has adapted to his tactics, and the Millwall offensive he led is quite threatening.

Sean Davis does not have a personal tactical plan yet, but he and Smitchell are of the same type of player, and their performance is still very stable and they cooperate well with their teammates. Davis also cherishes the rare opportunity to start the Champions League. He has put in 100% effort and hopes to perform well. He is the most active in Millwall's team.

Curtis Weston in the frontcourt is a player who attracts firepower.

As the only forward, Valencia will never neglect his defense. Weston is relatively weak, but Mirwall is enough to suppress Valencia with his midfield firepower.

This is home court, home court is different!

Mirwall players were all involved in the game as soon as possible, and the audience was filled with support from Mirwall fans. Valencia's performance was somewhat affected.

In addition, Flores may not have carefully studied Millwall's tactics.

Mirvoor's "dual-core" style of play emphasizes the directness of cooperation and offense. In addition, the Premier League is generally stronger than La Liga's physical confrontation ability, so it can be said that it is the nemesis of Spain's traditional style of play. If you want to say that it is not an advantage against Barcelona, ​​Valencia's overall cooperation is not that outstanding, and their cooperation is somewhat inferior to Mirvoor, so they will naturally be at a disadvantage.

This is also one of the reasons why Mirwall could easily defeat Valencia in the first round.

In the 17th minute of the game, Simpson made an assist with one pass. Liver Morre received a pass in front of the goal and a shot shot came from the 20-meter distance to help Millwall take the lead.

This is also a shock to Valencia.

For ordinary players, twenty meters is far enough, but Livermore's shot at this position is almost equivalent to other players' ten meters. Valencia's goalkeeper was not even able to react and did not make any saves at all.

Livermore's goal made Valencia feel a little disappointed. When they were behind, they were a little panicked. As time passed, Valencia could not see any hope of leading, and they became more and more panicked.

The first half ended 1-0.

Millwall returned to the locker room with the lead, Zhang Yang praised the players' performance, allowing them to continue their efforts and strive to continue the lead until the end of the game.

Flores on the other side was in a bad mood. He didn't expect Millwall to perform well.

Mirwall sent only a "half substitute lineup". Although he had a certain strength, the forward transfer alone reduced a lot of pressure, but Valencia still couldn't play an advantage.

Why is this?

Flores was confused. He couldn't think of a countermeasure at all. It was not that Flores's level was not good. It was because the game was not very important. He did not study Mirwall's tactics carefully. He thought that Valencia would definitely be able to defeat Mirwall if he fought hard.

In one half of the game, Flores wanted to know how to play with Mirwall, which was a fantasy. Even if he wanted to make adjustments, it would only be a change in the player. Valencia did not do targeted training, so it was impossible to make targeted arrangements.

In the second half, Valencia's situation still did not improve. Instead, they made some threatening attacks and made some regressions in the situation, but in terms of threats to the goal, they were far from Mirwall.

In the 71st minute, Millwall scored again.

This time it was Josh Simpson. Using a set-piece opportunity outside the penalty area, Simpson directly broke through Valencia's goal with a signature curve ball.

2 to 0!

When Millwall led two goals, the game completely lost its suspense.

No one expected that the game would be so far. Before the game, a group of media criticized Mirvoor for "not sending all the main players". Now the media have all stopped, especially the Spanish media. They also expect Valencia to defeat Mirvoor's full main team, but the opponent sent half a substitute to easily defeat Valencia.

It's like a joke!

After Mirwall won Valencia, he has been confirmed to be able to qualify as the first in the group.

The group situation in Valencia has not changed much, but they cannot defeat Mirvoor, who is 'releasing', which is simply losing all face in European football. The British media said happily, "What else does Espanyol say to let Mirvoor send out the main lineup, but Valencia can't even beat the substitute lineup!"

Zhang Yang did not forget the depression before the game. A group of foreign media set traps for themselves and kept saying, "Milwall must have competitive ethics" and "Milwall must send all the main players."

Now that Mirwall won the game, Zhang Yang smiled and said something, "I don't think winning is a big deal. Valencia is very good, but it's enough for us to get eleven players together. There is no need to send all the main players with great fanfare."

"We have to fight on the third line. Maybe after Christmas, we have to face the fourth line. The competition is very intensive. Some players who play more often must have enough rest time. So when playing against Valencia, those players who do not play often deserve the opportunity."

Flores vomited blood in anger.

The Spanish media gritted their teeth, and Zhang Yang was directly saying, "Don't have to make a big fuss against Valencia, just get a few players to play." But they couldn't refute because Mirvoor easily won the game.

The Italian media was very happy.

Before the game, they said that Mirwall sent all the main players, with the purpose of hoping that Mirwall would defeat Valencia. As long as this goal is achieved, it doesn't matter what lineup it will be.

Mirvoor easily defeated Valencia with a substitute, and suddenly increased Roma's strength.

Mirvoor and Roma had a difficult two games. Not only did they send all the main players, but they almost lost the game when they fought hard; Valencia? They were easily defeated by Mirvoor's substitute!

There is no harm without comparison... This is the difference!
