"Sky Sports" is the largest football broadcasting media in England. They have successively bought out the exclusive broadcast rights of the Premier League and the Championship, and their investment in television broadcasts is nearly one billion US dollars every year.

With such a large investment, "Sky Sports" will naturally attach great importance to live football games.

Belu Elson is a very impressive position to be the commentator of Sky Sports’ Premier League matches, even if he only ranks at the bottom of the support level.

Beiru Elson serves as a commentator. With his neither handsome appearance nor unique style of jokes, or like Leinker, he is a big star. He doesn't even take any of these aspects, but he relies on his professionalism in commentary.

If you don’t rely on external forces and use normal speech to satisfy fans, you will definitely have to make more efforts.

This is true for Belu Elson. He has been in this position for nearly ten years and has a habit of not changing since he started as a commentator, that is, carefully studying the two teams before commenting.

Whenever there is a commentary job, Belu Elson will not only remember the core players and corresponding numbers of both sides, but also the substitute players and corresponding numbers. In addition, he will carefully study each player's resume, recent performance and other matters related to the game.

Listening to the game explained by Belu Elson, it is easy to hear a series of data.

This is not easy to do.

Just like in Millwall, there are many players who are unknown, and ordinary fans don’t know the resumes of those “unknown fringe players”, so it’s not easy to find information.

The fact that Belu Elson can do this is enough to show his serious work.

This habit lasts for ten years until now, and Belu Elson is sure that he knows more than 95% of the players.

Millwall is special.

This is the first time in history that Millwall has risen to the Premier League. Bellu Elson has to search the information carefully before the game and after careful study, he found that the team is the same as the media described: basically has no strength.

Most of Millwall's players lack experience in the top league. Now, the starting lineup includes forward Braniff, right forward Josh Simpson, back midfielder David Livermore, left forward Joey Healy, plus Wes Morgan and Barry Kogan, two defenders, all of them have made their debut in the Premier League for the first time.

Among other players, Darren Bent and Jody Morris only had a few short appearance experiences.

Such a team with poor lineup and no experience in the Premier League has no advantage in playing against Premier League powerhouse Blackburn. Beiru Elson also judged that Millwall would definitely be passive and could only be used to learn experience in the first league game.

As for beating Blackburn?

It's very difficult!

The game is really incomprehensible. Without talking about two goals in ten minutes, Millwall has suppressed Blackburn. As the game progresses, their advantage seems to be getting bigger and bigger.

"Milwall performed very well, and their players seemed to be very relaxed on the court. They used fast breaks to suppress Blackburn. It was not easy for Blackburn to attack!" Beiru Elson said in surprise, and was also paying close attention to Millwall's offense.

Millwall's offensive highlights are not many.

If you really want to talk about the advantages, there are only two descriptions - fast and smooth. No matter that wave of offensive, Millwall fought very quickly, counterattacked quickly, and advanced forward quickly.

Blackburn's defense doesn't seem to cause much trouble.

Millwall's cooperation also played smoothly. In addition, what is surprising is that every player in Millwall seems to be very adaptable to the game and perform very well.

But how is this possible?

———

It was not only Belu Elsen who was surprised.

The reporters in the media table were already shocked. They thought before the game that Blackburn would suppress Millwall.

Now it's the other way around.

The game is completely inverted with what they think.

The media reporters didn't know what was going on, so they watched the game go straight.

Millwall fans were quite excited. They would not consider the question of "why Millwall performs well". What is important is that the team leads two goals and completely suppresses Blackburn.

This kind of game scene is what they are most willing to see.

Every Millwall fan is in a very comfortable mood, and even the most optimistic fans think the game is unexpected.

That's Blackburn, a real Premier League powerhouse!

Last season, Millwall was very confident in facing his opponents in the Championship, but he was only an opponent in the Championship. Now that his opponent has become a Premier League team, why does the team seem to be more relaxed?

This game situation made Millwall fans very excited. They kept shouting in the stands, and Neal Stadium was filled with cheers. When Millwall launched the offensive, the shouting became even more intense, as if there had been a goal in the game.

The calls from the field made Millwall brave, and Blackburn on the other side felt bad.

Mark Hughes stood on the sidelines.

He hasn't sat down since Millwall scored his first goal.

After more than thirty minutes of the game, he knew that Blackburn was careless.

This Millwall is hard to deal with!

Not only is it difficult to deal with, Blackburn has reached an extremely dangerous situation: when the team was two goals behind, he couldn't even play the advantage in the situation and was completely suppressed by Millwall.

Incredible!

If there are top teams such as Chelsea and Manchester United, it is actually normal for the two sides to have too big strength gaps, but it is only Millwall on the other side.

Millwall...that's it!

How did the game become like this?

Mark Hughes watched carefully for a long time, but he could only draw one conclusion: Millwall performed better, each player performed well, and the overall cooperation was good. The defense of the tight press in the whole game was very steady, and the offensive rhythm was also very fast.

But in short, Millwall performed well.

Why perform well?

Mark Hughes can only be attributed to accident.

———

In contrast to Mark Hughes's seriousness, Zhang Yang was sitting on the coach's seat, chewing gum in his mouth, fiddling with a deck of playing cards in his hands, and occasionally turning his head and saying a few words to Wise next to him.

When the camera pointed to it, he saw Zhang Yang laughing, as if he had heard something interesting.

That look...

"Is he here for a trip?" Beiru Elson couldn't help but whirl at the corner of his mouth and complained.

Zhang Yang's performance was too relaxed.

The game on the court was going on fiercely, and he seemed to be here to visit. The game had nothing to do with him, and he didn't even pay much attention to it. The weird thing was here, and he was indeed Millwall's head coach.

"He was deliberately relaxed?" Beiru Elson analyzed, "that might make Millwall players feel that the game is easy, and they can perform better."

If Zhang Yang knew what Belu Elson said, he would be stunned. "What this guy said really makes sense! It's hard to even refute..."

Zhang Yang is indeed very relaxed because he already knows what will happen next.

At this point, Zhang Yang's biggest gain was not the two goals on the court, but the new tactics played the desired effect, just like Mark Hughes's view: every player Millwall performed very well and played well in the overall cooperation.

This is what Zhang Yang wants to see.

The new tactics are not complicated at all. Millwall's style of play is also very direct, which is traditional British football, with only a few offensive methods. The new tactics are based on the "Shirt Spirit Calculation" and are tailor-made for Millwall.

It is a tactic that can make the overall show stronger based on the ability of each player.

The tactics really have no direct highlights, but they just allow every player to fully exert their strength without sacrificing anything for the overall tactics.

This is the key point.

Taking a data as an analogy, Blackburn's lineup is stronger, and their average ability level of individual players reaches ten, but most of the players have to sacrifice for tactics and cooperation. The overall strength they can exert is only half, that is, about fifty-five.

Millwall's lineup is weaker, and the average ability level of a single player can only reach eight, but the tactics are tailor-made based on player abilities. The overall strength of eleven players can be more than seventy.

This is what the new tactic does: maximize the performance of individual players to maximize overall performance.

Only when every player who plays in Millwall can perform well can the team be able to suppress Blackburn.

———

On the court.

Millwall players feel in a very good shape.

In fact, before the game started, they didn't have much confidence. Many people made their debut in the Premier League for the first time. Millwall was just a promoted team, and their opponent Blackburn was a veteran strong team.

If Zhang Yang asked the whole team to score more goals, he brought a lot of confidence to the players.

The head coach said that, proving that the game will be easy and there is no need for them to bear pressure.

When the game came, Millwall became more confident the more he played. They found that their opponents were not as difficult as they imagined. The two goals in the first ten minutes made all the players more confident.

What are you afraid of if you score two goals?

When the players relax, their performance gets better.

As the game progressed, their confidence became more and more sufficient, their performance became more and more calm, and the suppression on Blackburn became stronger and stronger.

Blackburn's feelings are completely opposite. They play more and more passively. Many players feel that they are playing against giant teams, not as a newly promoted team.

This feeling is very weird!

Blackburn was very unwilling to give up. They tried to organize offensives again and again, trying to regain the game situation, but they were facing failures again and again.

Blackburn's overall morale was hit hard.

"The game seems to be different from what the coach said!"

"Where is this Millwall easy to deal with... Maybe it's almost the same thing in the other way..."
