Chapter 657 Second Ball(1/2)

After completing the goal, Vardy rushed to the side of the field excitedly. He knelt on the ground, played with a kneeling slid, rushed out more than one meter, and then raised his fists into the air to celebrate.

Vardy was also very excited to score the first goal in the Champions League final.

The other Millwall players immediately followed him and pulled him to the ground. One by one, they rushed up and played happily.

This scene made Zhang Yang frown.

The players' excitement of the stack is nothing. Valdy's slid to the celebration move is absolutely not recommended. That kind of move is really dangerous. If you score a goal in the Champions League final, you will end up with an injury due to the celebration move, it will be a bit funny.

Fortunately, Vardy was not injured.

After the celebration, he stood up like a person who was fine, but from the shape of his head and clothes, he was really embarrassed.

"This is the first goal in the Champions League final!"

"Vardy! He won the Premier League Golden Boot, and he will also be the Golden Boot of Europe. At the same time, he has the most goals in the Champions League, and c-Ronaldo has many goals, but he is still three less than him. If nothing unexpected happens, he will also be the Golden Boot of the Champions League."

"Vardy's performance this season is perfect. Looking back at the beginning of the season, many people were not optimistic that he could replace Darren Bent, but now it is certain that Vardy did better than Bent."

"But Morris is undoubtedly the core of the attack just now, and he is one of the heroes of the goal."

“…”

Millwall's celebration ended, but the impact of the goal has not yet ended.

The first goal in the Champions League was just a goal, but it made Millwall more beneficial. Many people began to look forward to the championship. Assistant coach Pierce sighed, "I never thought that I could win so many championships in my first season in Millwall. I am still on the stage of the Champions League finals and have already led the opponent..."

Looking back on this year's experience, Pierce felt a little dreamy.

When he was leading Manchester City, he was also one of the head coaches of the Premier League and attracted much attention wherever he went. However, it was difficult to win the competition at that time. He didn't even have to think about winning the league first. He didn't even have the qualifications to participate in the European competition. After coming to Millwall, the situation was different. He lost the attention of being the head coach of the Premier League and became a little less conspicuous. Even if he was Millwall's assistant coach, he was just an assistant coach and could not dominate a team, so the media's interest was very little.

But……

Millwall kept winning.

Pierce is a little confused about what it means to lose. After a season, they only lost the league at the end of the season, but they still don't pay attention to the game at all.

Most of the remaining games successfully defeated their opponents and occasionally there were draws, but there was no big impact at all.

After a season has passed, the team can still perform well in the finals of the Champions League. Pierce thinks back that his work is easier than before, and continuous victory also brings happiness and glory.

"If I had known Millwall was so good, I would have come to be an assistant coach earlier."

Zhang Yang laughed after hearing this.

A few seasons ago, who would care about Millwall? At that time, let alone asking Pierce to be an assistant coach, even if he was invited to be a head coach, the other party would consider it carefully and... refuse.

That is inevitable.

There is a dignified Manchester City who can coach, so there is no need to be an assistant coach in a Premier League team.

In the past three seasons, Millwall has completely changed into a team, from a Premier League promotion to the top team in Europe. The championships won in three seasons can be compared with the century-old European giants.

If he wins this championship, Mirwall can be said to have entered the ranks of giants.

He created a wealthy family with one hand.

Zhang Yang was also relieved about this, which was a huge success.

When the season ends, it seems that nothing is left, because he has done everything he can. He has led the team for more than three seasons, helped the team win so many championships, and cultivated so many talented stars.

What changes will happen to Millwall next?

Zhang Yang shook his head.

No one can say what will happen in the future. At this point, the form of English football has become completely different, but it is certain that the competition in the future will only become more intense.

That's not what he needs to consider.

The important thing at the moment is to defeat Manchester United and win this game.

The game started over.

While falling behind by one goal, Manchester United continued to work hard to get into the game. Many players remembered the record of the match against Millwall, and their morale was a little depressed. But after all, it was the final of the Champions League. Every player knew that they must fight until the last minute. As long as there was a little chance, they had to seize it.

Now it's just one goal behind, and there's still a chance to tie.

After the game restarts, Manchester United's offensive becomes even stronger, and the side that is behind will often strengthen the attack.

Manchester United are also very unwilling to accept it.

"Manchester United has never beat Millwall for three seasons!" This is a fact, but Manchester United is a little unacceptable.

They are Manchester United!

Manchester United!

Since the establishment of the Premier League, the best team, the world's top giants, every player in the team is a well-known star, and the overall performance is definitely no worse than Millwall.

Why can't you win?

at the same time.

Manchester United fans in the audience also shouted with their biggest shouts to give Manchester United enough support.

Manchester United players have put their energy into the game and their overall performance is also quite outstanding.

Unfortunately, Millwall's defense is too tight.

Whenever facing a major competition, unless there are special circumstances, Zhang Yang will formulate conservative strategies and win with defense. It is not just empty talk. Only when you are steady can you have hope to laugh to the end.

Millwall is conservative in his treatment of the game. When he successfully led Manchester United, the entire team played more conservatively because they had no pressure at all and could play safely and not rush to score goals.

Manchester United is exactly the opposite.

Manchester United players on the court are eager to equalize the score, so their mentality is a bit impetuous.

Millwall's offensive core point is in the middle.

The combination of Morris Gabranioff has created countless opportunities for the team in the past games. Livermore's addition to the offense is also very important, allowing the midfielder's midfield to not only assist but also the ability to directly score.

In comparison, the two sides are much worse.

This is related to the position on the wing and the ability of the wing players. Simpson and Maxi are still a little worse in terms of overall situation and ability, but this time Simpson helped the team find an opportunity.

When the football crossed the penalty area line, Braniff gave the ball to Simpson.

Often at this time, Simpson will cooperate with Braniff and Morris, or control the ball by cooperating with the right back, and try to push forward as much as possible. He dribbled the ball personally. This time, Manchester United's defense was half a beat slower, and Simpson had room around him, so he chose to kick the ball forward.

Long pass transfer!

Simpson's excellent set-piece skills also helped improve his long pass ability. His sudden long pass made Manchester United unprepared because Millwall had not played a few long passes until now. He prefers to use short passes to steadily pass opportunities.

Maxi rushed to the front from the left and steadily removed the ball.

This long pass is so important!

Because football is on the right side, Manchester United's defensive center of gravity is also on that side. After the long pass is transferred, they did not adjust the center of gravity for a while, and the defensive formation is a bit unstable, and the players on the court feel caught off guard.

After stopping the ball, Maxi quickly led forward.

The fastest players in the entire Millwall team are Maxi and Vardy. The latter are forward players. They don’t drive forward and break forward for a few times. Maxi is different. As long as they get the ball, they can lead forward quickly. After he drives the ball, Manchester United suddenly realizes the danger.

"Maxi! He's very fast!"

"Dangerous! Be careful!"

"Look at this time! Millwall counterattack quickly!"

The game situation suddenly became tense, and British BBC broadcast commentator Leinker shouted that as a legendary star in England, he was also surprised by Simpson's wonderful long pass.

That's really a stroke of magic.

Manchester United players desperately chased back, but Maxi was short in front of him, so he just needed to keep moving forward quickly, and no players had time to organize.

When we arrived at the penalty area line, Maxi slowed down.

Ferdinand rushed over, and a central defender went to defend the wing, but there was no way. He could rush directly into the penalty area if he couldn't go over, but Ferdinand did not rush up, but got stuck on the passing route to the middle. He had a certain understanding of Maxi. The Argentine winger was very fast and was quite sharp in outstripping, but he rarely dribbled the ball and completed the shot.

"He should be able to pass the ball..."

Ferdinand was not sure about the opponent's attack to this point, but as long as he defended alone, he could only bet on the chance.

At this time, Maxi put the ball forward and suddenly accelerated to start again-

He wants to break out!

Ferdinand stands a little further back, so he can only limit the pass and cannot stop the breakthrough anymore. He can only allow Maxi to break through to the penalty area.

"Maxi!"

“This is a good opportunity!”

Manchester United goal is dangerous.

Maxi is close to the wing, and after breaking through to the penalty area, he is also on the far left side, but after all, entering the penalty area, it is equivalent to entering the hinterland. After breaking through to Ferdinand, he can shoot directly, but the angle is a bit small.

At this time, his choices became more.

In the end, Maxi did not shoot directly, and he chose to push the ball horizontally in the middle.

Football arrived in front of the goal!

This pass surprised Manchester United, and the subsequent scene was the same as they imagined.
To be continued...
