Zhang Yang, Wise and Frederick walked side by side towards the first team training ground.

Everyone's face was not very good.

They are in different moods.

Wise is worried about his coaching performance. The team is already in the relegation zone and sells the main forward. He has no confidence in what results will be achieved in the second half of the schedule.

If the team is really relegated, his head coaching job will undoubtedly become very failed.

Frederick is also a little worried about the team, but he is more upset about why he didn't remember the player's resume? If he had revealed a series of data and suggested that the club sell Scott Dobby, Gligery would definitely look at him differently!

Zhang Yang felt awkward.

As for the team's strength decline, he is not very worried. The main reason is that it doesn't make sense. He is just a "match instructor" and is not even an "assistant coach" and is unable to intervene.

There is an old Chinese saying that "If you are not in your position, you will not work for your job." He does not have the spirit of fearlessness and fraternity. Things that have nothing to do with work are even thought of as a waste of brain cells.

Now walking with Wise and Frederick, Zhang Yang felt very awkward.

The three of them had nothing to say, and it was very embarrassing to have nothing to say along the way.

After arriving at the first team training ground, Zhang Yang separated from the two of them. He found the place where he had just rested, sat down, and hummed a small song happily, looking leisurely and contented, which made many players envious.

"I thought he would become more diligent," Frederick said, shaking his head, "It still happened, he didn't know how to help?"

Wise shrugged.

What Frederick didn't know was that his complaint greatly reduced his image in the players' hearts.

Wise is explaining a small routine to everyone.

Tim Cranch, Jody Morris and Joey Healy were all beside him. When they heard Frederick's words, they thought of the start of training and Zhang Yang came to help, Frederick was disgusted and refused.

"You are just a 'game instructor', not an assistant coach! You don't know how to train at all, and it's not your job!"

"Stay away from here and walk out of the court! This is not the place you should stay!"

Then Zhang Yang left.

Now this guy said that the other party would not take the initiative to help? Who is this person?

———

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Neal Stadium.

Amid the boiling cry in the audience, Millwall's home match against Brighton officially began.

Perhaps because of the influence of defeating Sunderland at home two days ago, Millwall's morale was greatly boosted. As soon as the game started, the team relied on their home advantage to launch a fierce offensive towards Brighton.

This offensive also brought good results.

In the 13th minute, Joey Healy made a cross from the wing, and midfielder Jody Morris inserted in at the right time and used a header to help Millwall take the lead.

Brighton then stepped up his defense.

The two teams were in a state of anxiety, and overall Millwall had the advantage.

Until the end of the first half, the score was rewritten again. When the football passed to the front of the penalty area, Northern Ireland striker Braniff helped Millwall expand his lead with a sudden cold shot.

2 to 0.

Mike Johnson, the stadium broadcaster, praised excitedly, "Starting the beginning of the season, Millwall has never led two goals in the first half! Now we have finally started the team's outbreak! This may have been affected by the last defeat of Sunderland, but no matter what, the team performed very well!"

"I believe this will be a big victory! The second half will definitely be even more exciting!"

"This may be a Christmas gift for fans!"

“…”

Many fans and Mike Johnson have the same expectations, hoping that Millwall can win a big victory to clear the shadow of the league's low performance from the beginning of the season to the present.

In the locker room during the intermission, Millwall players were also excited to talk about the game.

This is their first time since the beginning of the season, they scored two goals in the first half.

Will this be a big victory?

Wise is also looking forward to it.

But in the second half, it was completely different from his expectations. After only three minutes of the game, Zhang Yang made a defensive suggestion, "We should remind the team to pay attention to the right defense! Brighton is likely to look for opportunities from our right!"

Wise was happy that the team performed well and wanted to continue scoring goals, but he couldn't listen to the suggestions at all. "Zhang, maybe sometimes you are right, but your ideas are too conservative. Now we should hurry up and score the goal, it's not time to defend!"

Zhang Yang rolled his eyes as he heard this.

Even if he doesn't know any football tactics very well, he knows one truth: if he scores one goal, he will get three league points, if he scores ten goals or wins, he will still get three league points.

Is there any difference?

Perhaps the feelings of players and fans will be completely different, but for the head coach, the result will be the same.

The head coach should focus on the whole season rather than a single game, so it is more important to ensure victory than to score a goal in a league game.

Now this guy is like a fan, saying, "Hurry up and score the goal"?

"Will Millwall be relegated this season?"

Zhang Yang pulled the corner of his mouth.

He was half a fan in his previous life and would also care about European events, but he didn't care about the second division in England, and he didn't know what Millwall would achieve.

Judging from the current situation, even if you don’t have a downgrade, you will definitely be at the bottom and your grades will never be good!

Without too much complaint, Wise will regret it immediately!

Starting from the fifth minute of the second half, Brighton launched a continuous attack from the left, allowing Millwall's right defense to be broken repeatedly. In the third offensive, Brighton's left forward's pass gave the forward player the opportunity to face the goalkeeper.

Brighton's No. 14 black forward helped the team catch up with a point with a powerful shot!

2 to 1!

Accompanied by cheers from Brighton fans, Brighton players celebrated excitedly and saw hope of equalizing the score.

Millwall players were collectively silent.

There is only one difference in the goal data between 2-0 and 2-1, but the feeling is completely different.

2-0 means leading by two goals. Even if one of the mistakes is scored, the leading side is still the leader; 2-1 will give people a sense of urgency, and if a mistake is made, it means that the 3 points you get will become 1 point.

Wise stopped saying anything about 'snatching the goal'.

When the game started again and saw Brighton launching an offensive and the team suffered frequent backcourt crises, he kept worrying about defense.

In the 61st minute, when Brighton got a chance to play, Zhang Yang gave another suggestion, "We should remind the players to pay attention to the back point. The back point defense is a bit weak, and the opponent is likely to surround the back point!"

Zhang Yang was a little anxious.

It would be fine if I didn't listen to the opinions just now. Brighton was about to tie the score. If he continued, the victory would be about to fly away.

This time Wise finally learned his lesson.

Zhang Yang reminded him continuously that every time he talked about the key points, he would be a little too stubborn if he didn't listen to advice. So Wise thought about it and finally moved his butt. He walked to the sidelines and called the nearest Jody Morris, "Jody, pay attention to the back point later!"

This is the first time Wise has come to the sidelines to remind a player since he became the head coach.

When he said it, he felt awkward.

So when Jody Morris was about to run back, Wise added, "This is Chang Yang's suggestion, he thinks he should defend the back point!"

This sentence is the point.
Chapter completed!
