The Young Lion

At the end of the first half, the players walked towards the player tunnel. The expressions of the players on both sides were normal, and Millwall was just a little aggrieved.

Aldridge walked from the sidelines towards the player tunnel, and the fans in the stands leaned out and made various moves against him.

Booing, booing, clapping, sarcasm, cursing, ridiculing, even pointing at him and yelling loudly: London boy, are you happy early? Our Manchester United will not be easily defeated, so what if we lead by two goals? When the game is over, you Go back to London crying!

Aldridge walked forward calmly, not caring about the pressure exerted by Manchester United fans. Competing with fans is the most stupid behavior.

After returning to the locker room, Aldridge took a look at the state of the players. They were all good, and their fighting spirit had not been depressed. Obviously, being able to compete with an opponent at the level of Manchester United was also what they wished for.

It's just that the frequency of Trezeguet's panting is obviously faster than others. Even though he has recovered his physical condition through pre-season training, he still can't bear it in such a fast-paced game. The indulgence of the summer vacation still has sequelae.

Aldridge took out a pen and drew a simple matchup on the tactical board, then circled Neil's position, turned to Neil and said: Forget about the first half, continue to step forward and assist in the second half, don't be psychologically burdened .”

Neil nodded fiercely. At the end of the first half, he was really afraid that if he stepped forward and made another mistake, the team would concede a goal, so he stayed honestly behind.

Aldridge didn't say what was in his heart. In fact, half of the responsibility for the goal lost after Neil made a mistake was his coach.

Claude, if the first goal conceded in the first half happens again, then you don't have to intercept the opponent's counterattack immediately, and retreat one after another, even if you return to the penalty area, to ensure that we are the most dangerous in front of the goal. There will be no numerical disadvantage in the area, reducing the opponent's attacking space in front of the penalty area.

When Aldridge explained to Makelele, the players raised their heads to look at Aldridge in unison, seeing him and just smiled. For some reason, they felt that Aldridge's aura of charm seemed to have improved again.

In fact, in Aldridge's previous tactical arrangement, once the winger is hit by a counterattack, Makelele's task is to intercept it immediately, but the effect is not good. After all, the width of the pitch is there, and Manchester United is flying on both wings. Tactics, relying on Makelele's two legs, naturally he is not as fast as football. It was Aldridge's tactical error. Makelele went to intercept Beckham, but the center was vacant, creating a problem for Bart to attack. Chance.

Aldridge's midfield adjustment overturned his previous tactical arrangements, and he has nothing to be ashamed of. Mistakes can happen to anyone. Mistakes are not terrible.

After being hit by a counterattack, let Makelele withdraw to the vicinity of the penalty area first, so that even if Manchester United's counterattack hits the penalty area, even if there is a numerical advantage, Millwall's defensive line will not be too large, and the vertical attack space can be compressed to the maximum extent. .

After making some specific tactical arrangements in the midfield, Aldridge once again instigated the fighting spirit of the players, praised their performance in the 45 minutes of the first half, and hoped that it could continue in the second half.

The intermission ended quickly, and the players walked out of the locker room again.

Aldridge returned to the sidelines in front of the coach's bench and stood with his hands in his pockets and his chin raised slightly. This posture gave the players confidence.

His contagion has subtly affected the team in a year.

If the head coach is a coward,

When you come to Old Trafford, you hide and defend, and you don’t even have the courage to challenge. Even if you give Aldrich Mateus, Baggio, Maldini and other best contemporary players, it may be a game. fiasco.

Ferguson sat on the coach's bench again, chewing gum as if returning to the calm state before the start of the game.

The referee Duggin blew the whistle to start the second half and Manchester United kicked off.

Although the game is still a draw, there are only 45 minutes left for Manchester United. They obviously don't want to lose points in the first round of the league, especially in the game against the newly promoted at home.

Therefore, Manchester United's offense played very fiercely, and Millwall could only retreat to defend at the beginning of the second half.

Aldridge was watching the trend of the game from the sidelines, and suddenly felt that Manchester United's formation was a bit strange. The number of figures in red jerseys in front of him was different from that in the first half.

This is caused by the sense of vision. He stared at the midfield, so the players at both ends of the pitch would only have a blurred shadow in the corner of his eyes. Most of the time, he watched the competition between the two teams in a part of the pitch, Manchester United players and Millwall. Players, the number of red and blue figures is roughly equal, but they are constantly moving.

But he suddenly felt that Manchester United had more players participating in the offense than in the first half!

who?

The extra ones must be Raiders!

He took a closer look and saw a Manchester United player moving inconspicuously from the backcourt.

Left back, Erwin.

When Aldridge discovered this, he saw that Schneider was double-teaming with Thuram to press Giggs who had just received the ball. Slightly passed the ball to the right, and Irwin started to lead the ball five meters from the right of Giggs and strode forward.

Intercept him!

Aldridge yelled.

When the players are highly concentrated, it is impossible to hear Aldridge's shouting, and even if they hear it, it is difficult to respond quickly.

And Schneider and Thuram found that Giggs and Irwin had completed the cooperation, and the two responded almost subconsciously.

Thuram has the positional advantage of interception, he gave up Giggs, Schneider also directly started to run to the backcourt, filling the gap left by Thuram, which made Giggs go forward after passing the ball Neither has a positional advantage.

Thuram accelerated decisively to steal Irwin directly from the side. He stretched his thigh to block the opponent, and then grabbed the ball in front of the opponent abruptly, but Irwin was knocked to the ground.

Du Jin blew to stop the game and indicated that Rahm fouled.

Annoyed and helpless, Thuram bent down and picked up the ball, pinched it in his hands, and finally dropped the ball to the ground.

Dugin shows Thuram a yellow card.

Aldridge laughed angrily on the sidelines, nodding and applauding.

Oh shit!

Even if Thuram's movement was a bit big just now, can it be bigger than Roy Keane's movement directly hitting Nedved?

The location of the foul was neither good nor bad, in the front right of the Millwall penalty area, about 30 yards from the goal.

It was Beckham who took the free kick.

Aldrich's scalp tingled.

If the team faces a free-kick master, the head coach has nothing to do.

Put more human walls? Or tell the goalkeeper which side to throw?

Aldridge doesn't know what level Beckham's free kick skills have reached today. At Millwall last season, his free kicks can only be regarded as good.

There are not many complicated tactics for defending direct free kicks. The human wall blocks the angle of the near post, and the goalkeeper blocks the far post. Take off to expand the defensive area, the goalkeeper defends the far end, if the ball hits the far corner, the flight time will be longer, leaving more reaction time for the goalkeeper.

Millwall set up the wall, and other players marked the Manchester United attacking players ambushing inside and outside the penalty area.

Beckham stood calmly behind the ball, looking at the wall of people in front of him, all of them were familiar faces.

Five months in Millwall he had been satisfied with everything but the end.

But what angered him the most was Aldridge's rant at him in the locker room.

Beckham, who was selected by Manchester United as a child, naturally grew up with pride, but Aldridge left a lingering shadow in his heart.

He needs to prove himself, especially in front of that young commander.

Guangmingzheng told him arrogantly: You are wrong!

Dugin's whistle blew, and Old Trafford was silent.

Under the eyes of everyone, Beckham took a run-up, stepped on his left foot on his supporting leg, and at the same time drew an arc with his left arm on the left side of his body to ensure that his body maintained balance after a large tilt to the left. The front half of his right foot stretched straight Kicking the ball perfectly from the bottom, forming a huge friction force after exerting force.

The kicked ball started flying with a strong spin.

The wall took off, and Southgate jumped to the extreme, but couldn't touch the ball.

Seeing that the ball flew high, but after crossing the human wall, it began to spin and fall. The exaggerated arc was like a slanted rainbow.

The wall landed, and the Millwall players looked towards the goal in unison. The goalkeeper Keller was dumbfounded and kept turning his head. He saw the ball lying quietly in the net. The cheers of the tsunami shook the sky!

Bayesian arc, rise in the rivers and lakes!

3:2! Manchester United reversed the score just after the start of the second half. They successfully regained the initiative in the game from a two-goal deficit! This free kick is wonderful, and the trajectory is pleasing to the eye.

It's simply art! David Beckham, this young player has just become the main force of Manchester United and has shown his value. Alan Hansen, you underestimated these children. Beckham's free kick is enough. Aftertaste for a long time!

Beckham smiled, opened his arms brazenly and smiled proudly towards the stands!
