Chapter 554 Two seasons, change of mentality
Millwall and Chelsea had a fierce confrontation. From the perspective of the scene, the possession rate of the two teams was equal, but Chelsea's defense was more stable, and Millwall's offensive was more violent.

From the perspective of the media and fans, the situation is beneficial to Chelsea, because their defense is more stable, and Chelsea is also a team that is good at playing defensive counterattacks.

In fact, looking at the confrontation between Chelsea and Millwall in the past two seasons, one thing that can be clearly noticed is that Chelsea's advantage is slowly weakening.

Two seasons ago, when the two sides played against each other, Chelsea had an absolute advantage. Even with a solid defensive style of play, their number of offenses was still much higher than that of Millwall.

Last season, Chelsea was also able to play an advantage, the two sides can play a very small time even, usually Chelsea's main attack, Millwall will occasionally launch an attack.

Therefore, from a rational point of view, Millwall's ability to play on par with Chelsea has already greatly improved.

The Chelsea players have full confidence, and the advantage in the situation is secondary. They believe that the team has a deep understanding of Millwall. As long as they stabilize the defense in the backcourt, they are already invincible, even if The head coach Mourinho is not there, they rely on their own performance and believe that they can win the final victory.

The situation now is that as long as they find good chances, they can score goals.

Millwall had no chance, because they blocked the front of the penalty area very tightly, and the opponent could not find a chance.

That's what the Chelsea players think.

Every player holds the belief of winning, and believes that the final victory will belong to Chelsea.

With the support of this mentality, Chelsea showed full fighting spirit. Every player played very hard, actively ran and fought aggressively. Occasionally relying on frontcourt players, they could continue to launch offensives against Millwall.

Chelsea's performance is undoubtedly quite good.

But in fact, the game situation was not as optimistic as they imagined. Twenty minutes passed quickly, and they still couldn't find a chance.

Three 10 minutes...still the same.

Millwall's defense is also very solid, even if the main focus is on offense, but Millwall's 451 formation is basically a total defense, unless Chelsea play a very sharp counterattack, as long as a little time is given, Millwall has enough defense.

Chelsea went to the game in one go, but did not find a good opportunity, nor could they suppress the situation.

At this time, many people reacted -
"We can see that Millwall's defense is very solid. Even though their offense is a bit aggressive, they still pay great attention to defense. Chelsea's continuous offensive did not find a good opportunity!"

"Just now it was said that Millwall was at a disadvantage. This is not correct. It can only be said that Millwall played more openly and aggressively, while Chelsea was much more passive..."

"The game went on for 10 minutes, and the score between the two sides was still 0-0. The scene was very fierce. It is hard to say which team will score first."

A professional football analyst stood up and commented, "Millwall and Chelsea, both teams have a lot of experience. No matter how much energy they put into offense, they have not neglected defense. Now every player on the field is very Positive, but it is very difficult to break the opponent's goal."

"This is a real top match, English football, and even the top of European football. Don't forget that last season's Champions League final was a contest between Millwall and Chelsea..."

This is an aspect of English football that we are proud of.

The UEFA Champions League final is a match between two English teams, both from London. It is really a huge harvest for English football, because a Community Shield can be compared with the UEFA Champions League final.

When the game was close, the cameras had time to snap a shot of the fans and the head coaches of both teams.

The TV screen only gave the Chelsea team leader Grant a picture, and the commentator only said, "The Israelis probably don't know what to do. Whether Chelsea can play well depends entirely on the performance of the players on the field and God's arrangement. "

Zhang Yang got several shots.

On the TV screen, Zhang Yang was on tiptoes, playing with a deck of exquisite poker cards in his hands. The commentator also said jokingly, "Last season, Zhang Yang always held two dice, as if to express 'good luck in Millwall Er', and now he's switched to playing cards again."

"That was a prop from last season, when Millwall had just been promoted to the Premier League, and a lot of people joked, 'Millwall won the league with a deck of cards'."

"Perhaps Zhang Yang hopes to rely on the charm of poker to bring good luck to the team again!"

Zhang Yang's expression was also analyzed, "He is smiling. Judging from his expression, he is not worried about the game. This may be due to his confidence in the team's strength. But so far, Millwall has indeed not played an advantage. Whether the game is as expected by Zhang Yang, we still have to continue watching."

----

In this game, Millwall only played with one new aid, the Dutch star Sneijder.

Sneijder is also Millwall's most-watched signing. He is the most famous of the recruited stars, and he is also a talent that the big giants are vying for. At the beginning, Real Madrid was "infinitely close" to Sneijder, but in the end he was rejected. Millwall snatched it, which naturally attracted much attention.

Sneijder is also really good.

Most of the players who had just joined Millwall were unable to represent the team in major competitions, because they were not quite used to the tactics yet, while Sneijder has slowly adapted to the tactics and is able to play in a good state.

Sneijder is still not very skilled in cooperating with his teammates. It will take a long time for him to adapt to the 'Millwall-style' running position, but he has an excellent overall view and passing ability, and his feet are also very tough. Solid, from the beginning of the game to now, his performance is no worse than others.

The cooperation between Sneijder and Braniff is a bright spot.

The 'dual-core' style of play in the 451 formation requires relatively high coordination between the two midfield cores. Sneijder also kept this in mind. He continued to actively seek cooperation with Braniff. As the game deepened, Sneijder The performance is also getting smoother.

Of course, Sneijder was not the best player.

Among the Millwall team, the best performer was Braniff.

Although it is a dual core, it is also a master and a deputy. Braniff is the main core. Other teammates and Braniff also have enough tacit understanding. Braniff also has excellent dribbling ability and he can have flexible feet. Technology, to attract the attention of the media and fans.

Sneijder also has advantages. His overall view is better than Braniff's. In terms of personal ability, he is a little closer to Morris.

This time, Sneijder's excellent overall view paid off.

----

Simpson dribbled the ball on the right side and attracted a lot of defensive attention. The stadium broadcasters were shouting, "Simpson! He's very fast!"

"Simpson's performance is getting better and better! He got rid of Essien all at once!"

Simpson is the kind of player who can't defend but is very sharp in offense. He has fast speed and good skills at his feet. He can perform very well in wing attacks.

With the shouts from the stadium broadcast, Simpson was dribbling the ball quickly. His speed even made Chelsea fans think of Robben who left, and couldn't help but miss him.

There is still a difference between Simpson and Robben, at least he is not good at cutting in and shooting, and the dribbling is only for the overall offense.

Seeing Simpson get rid of Essien, Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole immediately posted it. Cole is the top left-back in Europe. He has very rich defensive experience and is decisive in his composure. To steal.

Simpson reacted quickly, he stretched his foot early to kick the ball, and almost collided with Kerr. Both were unstable and could no longer control the ball.

The football was taken by Braniff.

Braniff is the best player in Millwall. He is also closely marked by Chelsea. He just got the ball and was about to face Lampard. He decisively chose to pass the ball.

The football reached Sneijder's feet.

When Sneijder stopped the ball, he glanced left and right, and found that the ball was very difficult, because Chelsea's defense at the front of the penalty area was very tight, and they had already arranged the defense, so it was difficult to break through.

Sneijder didn't have time to hesitate, the opponent's players had already rushed over, so he could only hand the ball to Braniff.

Braniff kicked back to Livermore, Livermore passed forward, and the ball rolled to Sneijder again.

This time Ned found the right opportunity.

The moment the football rolled over, he found that there was space on Terry's side. Vardy was restricted to death, but Pires was running forward. He didn't have any time to think, and he didn't even stop the ball. Looking in the direction of the football, he quickly pushed the ball over.

The football rushed between Terry and Mikel. Both of them subconsciously stretched out their feet to intercept, but in the end neither of them could touch the ball.

"Danger!"

"Look at this ball!"

"Wonderful Biography!"

In the stadium, including the players of the two teams, including the various media, as well as the fans in the auditorium, everyone realized that this was a good goal.

"Ned! Ned! Look at the ball!"

Following the rolling direction of the football, a player wearing a Millwall jersey appeared.

That is the French star Pires!

----

Millwall's 451 tactics mainly play in the middle. In addition to cooperating with teammates and sending the ball to important positions, the two full-backs also have an important job to rush up to find opportunities.

A winger is also equivalent to a winger.

Pires is a standard left midfielder. When he played for Arsenal, he scored the most goals in a season with [-] goals, including [-] goals in the league and two in the Champions League.

Pires was also a winger at Millwall, but he could also be called a winger, because the 'dual-core' tactic is a single forward, and the winger must be asked to step in to find opportunities. In fact, he has really become a winger.

For a winger, scoring goals is very important.

Just like Simpson, he is not the absolute main force, but as a right-sided player, he still contributed [-] goals in all competitions last season. The same is true for Pires. Equaled the record when playing for Arsenal.

The reason why Pires scored so many goals is that it is easy to find opportunities for the wide midfielders. The single striker has attracted enough attention. Most teams will choose to stick to the center when facing Millwall. Not easy to target and defend.

Same this time.

Pires did not expect that the opportunity came so easily. When he ran to the front quickly and was about to wave to his teammates for the ball, the football suddenly rolled over.

What a surprise!
What a surprise!
Chelsea didn't miss anyone, but Bridge, who was defending Pires, was still following behind him. Pires didn't slow down, and the football just appeared in front of him. For a seasoned star, the next thing changed So easy.

Pires swung his left foot, only glanced at the goal out of the corner of his eye, and then kicked hard behind the ball.

"Pirres—!!"

The football instantly turned around and flew towards the goal.

Even though Cech had made preparations in advance, facing such a powerful shot, he still couldn't react immediately. He made an interception, but he just opened his arms, and the football was stuck to the turf. Into the far side netting.

----

The moment Pires finished shooting, the hearts of everyone on the field were raised.

The Millwall side was excited, they expected Pires to score the ball and their team would take the lead.

Chelsea was worried, and then became helpless.

In again!
Another goal from Millwall!
In the past two seasons, Chelsea and Millwall have played against each other many times, most of which were scored by Millwall first, and then it will be difficult for Chelsea to recover.

The last thing Chelsea fans want is to see Millwall score first.

Just give them a little hope!

Looking back two seasons ago, when Chelsea and Millwall played against each other, when Millwall scored first, they thought, "It's just luck! Shit-shit luck! Chelsea will definitely come back!"

They hold absolute confidence!
Now the mentality of Chelsea fans is completely different from two seasons ago. They no longer have firm beliefs, just thinking, "Will I lose again!"

"Why did Millwall score first again?"

"Is there still hope for the game?"

The difference in the mentality of Chelsea fans is a true portrayal of the results of the match between Chelsea and Millwall.

Others don't care so much, the stadium broadcast and media commentators reacted immediately, and let out the roar of the goal, "Goooooooooal!!!"

"Pirres!"

"Robert Pires!"

"Pirres scored the first goal for Millwall, it was made 1-0 and Millwall took the lead!"

"It was a good game from the start, Chelsea did well, but Millwall came out on top. Sneijder found a good chance, his pass was very precise, Pires found his chance and put the ball in. goal!"
