After Millwall approached the Champions League final, the Champions League final was definitely a civil war in England, and most media are optimistic that Millwall can win the championship.

But another fight is still very important.

This match between Manchester United and Liverpool was very popular. The two teams were originally the "fight" of the north. It can be said to be the fourth in a century. It was the first time in history to meet in the Champions League semi-finals. One-to-one in the first round, which made both sides even more in a hurry.

The same goes for the game.

Manchester United sits at Old Trafford Stadium and tied 1-1 with Liverpool in 90 minutes. Both sides scored the same goal in two rounds and the same away goals. The game entered the overtime stage. In the first half of overtime, Manchester United scored two consecutive goals. Liverpool recovered one goal in the second half, but eventually lost the game.

In this way, Manchester United eliminated Liverpool 4-3 in two rounds and entered the final of the UEFA Champions League.

Ferguson laughed to the last time.

At the press conference after the game, Ferguson staggered the semi-finals, but looked forward to the finals. "Many people are not optimistic about us because Mirwall's results are better, but remember the following: it was a game in Moscow."

"That's a different place. We have more experience and the whole team is full of fighting spirit. I think nothing can stop us from competing for the European Championship."

"Milwall is very strong, and I must admit that I believe that the final will also be a test for Manchester United. If we can win in the end, we will reach a new peak..."

Ferguson's speech is very rich.

Some people say it on the surface that it means that Manchester United has confidence in winning the championship. As long as they defeat Millwall, winning the championship will naturally be a new peak.

But media reporters can think of more.

For example, Ferguson's age.

Ferguson is already at the age of retirement, and there are many reasons why he has been delaying retirement, but from what he said, you can undoubtedly hear a hint of fatigue.

"Maybe he is considering retirement."

"If you can lead the team to defeat Millwall, the old Jazz may be able to regain their fighting spirit, lead Manchester United to a new peak, and even create a new dynasty."

"On the contrary, he didn't say it, but we can also analyze it. Manchester United has been suppressed by Millwall in the past three seasons. They are no different from other teams. Even before last season, Chelsea suppressed Manchester United."

"Liverpool, Arsenal's league results are a little worse, but they all won the Champions League."

"Only Manchester United has not gained much for several seasons. He is old and tired. Maybe he is considering that if he chooses to retire, it will be good news for Manchester United. His departure is equivalent to a freshman, and there will be a new coach, and Manchester United's history will enter a new stage..."

"He doesn't have to find ways to fight Zhang Yang's Millwall, and his successor may open a new chapter..."

The analysis of media reporters still makes sense, but he is the only one who knows whether Ferguson feels tired and whether he is considering retirement.

Zhang Yang doesn't care about this.

After leading the team to the Champions League final ticket, Millwall ushered in two consecutive league games, which were also the last two rounds of the league, respectively, fighting against Blackburn and Reading.

The two games were all training.

Zhang Yang didn't care what the public said at all. He completely sent a substitute lineup to let the players deal with the game. As it turned out, even the substitute lineup was much better than Blackburn, Reading and others.

1 to 0.

3 to 1.

Millwall ended all the leagues with two wins, and then focused on preparing for two finals.

One is the FA Cup final.

One is the Champions League final.

Every game is related to a champion.

Zhang Yang took advantage of the time to give the whole team a day off and let them relax a little. He also took the time to accompany Ivanka and the children. He felt a little guilty. He was too busy on weekdays and had no time to worry about his family.

"Wait half a month later, the season is over, and I will go to the United States with you."

Zhang Yang gave Ivanka's promise.

“How long does it take?”

"At least a month, maybe it will be longer."

Ivanka wondered, "You don't want to work anymore? You still have to be in London..."

"No, I've already considered it." Zhang Yang said very surely, "I'm going to take a break for a while at the end of this season, and there are so many things in the United States that I can't continue to coach."

Zhang Yang has already thought about it.

Since he served as the head coach of Millwall, he has been working constantly. Sometimes he envies Mourinho. The Portuguese left Chelsea and did not find a home as soon as possible. Instead, he stayed at home with his family and children. He had been resting for a year.

The year's holiday is so enviable.

The head coach's job is very good, but he has the capital to do other things. He even says that he can be very good in other careers. He doesn't have to hang himself in the head coach position.

So May is the end.

It is probably perfect to use a "seven-crown champion" as the end!

As for the future... let's talk about it later!

Now Zhang Yang feels that he needs a while to take a break or do something else instead of continuing to be busy with coaching work, and he is already very tired.

Although Zhang Yang felt very tired, he still had to lead the team to complete this season and put a perfect end to his coaching career in Millwall.

What we are facing now is the FA Cup final.

The FA Cup final was held at the New Wembley Stadium. In February, Millwall had just won the League Cup championship at the New Wembley Stadium. The afterglow of the championship seemed to be over, and the team came here again to fight for the championship.

This time it's the FA Cup.

Millwall fans won’t dislike the many championships. They wish all the championships belong to Millwall, and Millwall will do it soon.

Every fan was very excited.

While the players of both teams were warming up, Millwall could no longer help but cheer for the new champion.

As for the opponent?

How could Cardiff City be Millwall's opponent?

The media and fans generally believe that Cardiff City cannot threaten Millwall.

There is no suspense about the FA Cup.

Millwall's coaching staff attaches great importance to their opponents. Zhang Yang gathered the coaching staff early to study Cardiff City to prevent any accidents in the game.

When playing in the league, you have to fight. It’s nothing if you make a mistake occasionally; the cup is different. You can make mistakes in the finals in one game, and you can’t make mistakes in any game.

Therefore, the style of playing should be based on stability.

Cardiff City coach Halllet is a coach who focuses on stability, and their results can be seen. Under Halllet's leadership, Cardiff City has improved year by year. Many people believe that it is only a matter of time before they enter the Premier League.

In the locker room before the game, Zhang Yang reminded the players, "You must pay attention to playing more stably. In this game, my only requirement is to be stable, defend and attack. I believe that our strength is stronger. As long as you play steadily, you will have no problem winning."

To be stable means to suppress with strength.

Millwall is more than one strong. As long as he can stabilize and avoid accidents, the champion will definitely not be able to escape.

Finally, Zhang Yang added, "Even if it's a penalty shootout, we are not afraid. I believe they don't have any chance!"

This is confidence.

Zhang Yang tells everyone that they can play more steadily and that they can win in the end even if they don’t score goals.

This may not be in line with Mirwall's traditional style, but when you encounter a "weak team" in the final, it is much better than if you don't have any surprises than if you play radically. As long as there are no accidents, you can win the final victory.

When Millwall's team entered the stadium, the stands were already crowded, and the cheers of fans filled the entire stadium. When playing against Cardiff City, the new Wembley Stadium was almost equivalent to Millwall's home court, because they had just arrived in February and were also a local team in London.

Even if the fans who came to watch the game did not support Millwall, there was no reason to support the Welsh team.

Judging from the player performance, Millwall has already occupied the word "stable" because Millwall's players almost didn't feel nervous. They seemed to be playing an ordinary league game. On the other hand, some of the Cardiff City players can clearly see nervousness.

This is the mentality gap.

Millwall has participated in too many major competitions. Even once in the Champions League final, they have won countless championships, and the players have already trained.

Millwall also won the FA Cup. Even last season, the game felt very calm. Many players focused on the Champions League final five days later.

It's really hard to attract them in the FA Cup finals now.

This does not mean that the competition does not pay attention to the competition, it is just that the competition cannot put pressure on them.

Finally, the players of both teams entered the field.

Cheers in the stands around were heard one after another, most of them were supportive of Mirwall, and there were also a small number of supporters of Cardiff City. Some neutral fans shouted in a mess, making the stands look a little messy and very popular.

Passion and passion have filled the entire court.

The game began soon.

Halllet's tactics are well formulated.

Defend, fight back.

Cardiff City can only play like this. No matter how big their heart is, they cannot play against Mirwall. Some top balls will do this. Perhaps surprising styles of play can still have good results, but Cardiff City has no basic strength, so they can only defend first and then consider counterattacking.

Halllet's defensive strategy is very direct. Simply put, veteran Haselbaink is in front and all other players return to the cargo yard to participate in the defense.

That can be called a 'human sea tactic'.

But in fact, Halllet has been carefully considered and it is not easy to make this decision. Football defensive tactics are generally targeted. For example, when playing against Millwall, you have to consider which position Millwall is more threatening.

For Cardiff City, Mirwall is threatening at any location.
