Chapter 281 Confidence and Madness(1/2)
Neal Stadium is already boiling!
Millwall fans yelled in their seats, most of the fans had already stood up, and everyone was celebrating and cheering excitedly.
This is a whole outbreak!
From the first minute of the game, Millwall fell into a passive position. When Chelsea took the lead, more people were not optimistic about Millwall being able to tie, and even they were not optimistic about it.
When talking about his understanding of Chelsea, Millwall fans have more contact. The two clubs are not far apart and their historical results are very different, but it does not prevent Millwall fans from getting in touch with more information about Chelsea. Many of them even support Chelsea. It’s not that they are Chelsea fans. Millwall has been playing in the low-level league. The first thing they support must be Millwall, but they will support Chelsea when they look at the Premier League, because the two teams have no competitive relationship in the past.
So this game can be barely called a derby.
Choose between Chelsea and Millwall, of course they will support Millwall, hoping that Millwall can defeat Chelsea. They were already desperate before and just wanted to give the team more support, and it doesn't matter if they lose the game.
Now they see hope again!
When Vardy helped Mirwall score, the two teams were back on the same starting line.
Zhang Yang's heart is much more stable.
This was not only a goal, but also a boost in the morale of the team.
When players are playing, the situation of being behind makes them unable to see hope. When the offense is difficult to achieve results, they will have questions in their hearts: Can we defeat Chelsea?
This mentality is dangerous.
Now that Vardy helps the team tie the score, the doubts will be solved. They will believe that the team will win if they have it, and they will work harder and show a better state in the near future.
Zhang Yang was also satisfied with the goal that the whole team relied on "normal performance". He was ready to use "speak and follow the rules" and even couldn't prepare for the goal. As a result, the team's offensive performance was very outstanding, and it was a little beyond expectations.
This is an unexpected surprise!
Zhang Yang also became more confident. He believed that the goal was just the beginning, and the team would still take the initiative to attack and try to find a good opportunity to score.
This goal has a great impact on Chelsea.
Chelsea players are already accustomed to the '1:0'ism. It's not that they all support the winning style of one goal, but when they score first, it will be difficult for their opponents to catch up. In most past games, scoring a goal represents victory.
Now Millwall tied the score, which is a blow to Chelsea's fighting spirit.
Many Chelsea players will shake their confidence.
The performance of Chelsea fans can prove something, and the Blues fans in the audience have become a little silent. They did not expect that Millwall could still tie the score.
The same goes for Chelsea players on the court.
Even head coach Mourinho had a gloomy face. The game was unexpected. Millwall performed quite tenaciously. Scoring a goal was nothing, but when Chelsea led the lead, the impact of the goal was quite large.
As a head coach, Mourinho saw more.
This goal not only showed Millwall's tenacity, but their overall cooperation, including the ability shown by the players in the middle, also impressed people. Just like Jody Morris, who was able to shake off Lampard and attracted Essin's attention, which was enough to prove Morris' excellence.
"This player is not bad at all, how could Chelsea give up on him?"
In Mourinho's opinion, Morris may not be as good as Lampard, but it is enough to occupy a position in Chelsea, with tough defense, good overall view, good offensive ability, and very comprehensive personal skills. Even in Chelsea today, there are enough opportunities to play.
In addition, Livermore, who said he valued before the game, had a great threat to long-range shots. The 30-meter powerful shot actually threatened the goal directly. It was obvious that Cech's reaction was slower, and such a powerful shot was no worse than Lampard's.
Of course Mourinho doesn't value Livermore, he just releases a pre-match smoke bomb.
Now he was a little moved.
Livermore and Essin, one is not well-known, and the other is a 24 million pounds man. However, judging from his performance on the court, Livermore's defense is much tougher, and a long shot in the offense is enough to threaten Chelsea's goal.
Essin?
From the beginning of the game to now, the Ghanaian has no choice but to perform, and Mourinho regrets letting him start.
Looking at Millwall's forward line, Darren Bent alone attracted enough attention. Perhaps every Chelsea defender is much more famous than Darren Bent and has a much higher net worth, but Chelsea had to separate two people to limit Darren Bent. Because of this, the unknown young player had the opportunity to face the goal.
Valdi?
This kid is not lucky, but being able to score the ball calmly by Chech is enough to prove his tough game mentality.
This is a very amazing thing for a nineteen-year-old player.
Looking at Mirwall's offensive, midfielder, sidewalk, and forward line, every player performed well. Thinking about it, most of them are just young players, Mourinho couldn't help but sigh, "What a genius!"
"After this season, should I also dig up a genius from it..."
It is almost impossible to say that Mourinho doesn't care about the battle of words before the game. Everyone will care about the evaluation of the outside world. Zhang Yang's theory made Mourinho speechless, which also made the outside world understand, "Murinho has a very poor vision."
Mourinho was in a very unhappy mood, but he couldn't refute it.
In fact, Mourinho's vision is not bad. Most of the players he recruited can only play as substitutes because other players performed too well.
Just like a midfielder, can you still expect the players you dug up to replace Lampard as the core?
Impossible.
Lampard is already a world-class star. Unless he digs up Ronaldinho-level stars, he can only play as a substitute when he comes.
Chelsea is not attractive enough.
The world's top stars are disdainful of Chelsea, and Ronaldinho's three rejection of Abramovich's invitation is proof of this.
Chelsea's lineup has become more stable now. Even if you explore young geniuses, it is meaningless. The young geniuses from other clubs cannot even play as a substitute when they arrive at Chelsea. What's the point of buying these players?
But Millwall's genius is still fascinating, such as Darren Bent in the frontcourt.
Mourinho is sure that Darren Bent can also have a position at Chelsea, and his performance will be quite good, and he will definitely become a top star in the future.
Now is a genius, and the future is a big star.
This is the value of mining!
———
After seven minutes of the second half, Millwall equalized the score, which also meant that the suspense of the game became larger.
However, Chelsea's advantage is still very big. Their lineup is strong and their performance on the court is also very good. After Mirwall's substitution adjustment, Chelsea still took the initiative in the situation and posed a great threat to Mirwall's goal.
If there is another goal in the future, many people think it will belong to Chelsea.
"It's good that Millwall can get into one!" Most people hold similar views. Some media that are considering Millwall began to make a voice saying, "Milwall should start defending! Holding a point is equivalent to victory."
If any Chinese fans hear similar calls, they will definitely feel extremely friendly and familiar.
Isn’t this the voice of a certain football association?
"Grading means victory!"
Generally, after making similar arguments, the game will only lose.
That's interesting.
Zhang Yang would not think so. For Millwall, a draw is actually a failure.
Millwall's goal this season is the semi-finals, which is the first task of the head coach's professional module. Success means recognizing Zhang Yang as the head coach, and failure will be considered "not having the potential to become a head coach."
As of the current situation, the goal of the semi-finals is not difficult, with Manchester United, the third in the league, also reaching five points in the gap with Millwall.
If you only aim for the semi-finals, it is a bit dangerous to draw. Manchester United will catch up with two, but it is indeed a victory. After all, Chelsea is the top of the league.
But if you lead a team, you must have a heart to compete for victory!
The semi-finals are just the foundation, and winning the championship is what you should do. Only with the heart of winning the championship can the team achieve good results. Millwall is already ranked second, so why not work hard? If you succeed, you can catch up with three points, and if you fail, you will only lose one point.
Just one point!
This bet is almost like no chips for Millwall.
Zhang Yang is unwilling to draw, and Mirwall's entire team will not, and everyone is working hard. Vardy's goal has greatly boosted the morale of the team!
When the game started again, Millwall continued to perform actively.
Although they were suppressed by Chelsea in the situation, Millwall's offensive should not be underestimated. At the same time, their performance is getting better and better.
For a while, the two teams fought evenly!
This kind of game situation is surprising. The media supporting Chelsea are not very good, while more media expect Millwall to perform better because they all hope that Chelsea will lose.
"Milwall is really good!"
"I played very well during this period! Few teams can compete head-on with Chelsea!"
"The defense is still a bit dangerous, but the offense is beautiful!"
"I hope Millwall can score another goal!"
"If Millwall can defeat Chelsea, that would be really interesting. At that time, the two teams are only three points apart. Maybe we can expect Millwall to win the championship?"
"Ha ha……"
Amid the talk of many people, Millwall launched a document offensive, and it was Jody Morris who led the offensive.
In previous games, Vardy scored goals, and Darren Bent, who attracted defensive attention in the frontcourt, was also quite excellent, but the one who performed the best was undoubtedly Morris. Both the defensive and offensive ends, Morris performed very well, and he did not lose the advantage in confronting Lampard.
After dribbling the ball across the center line, Morris encountered the opponent's press.
This time it was Essin.
Essin quickly approached and wanted to block the ball. Morris made a small change of direction. He didn't want to pass the opponent, but just delayed the time a little, but unexpectedly, Essin was deceived. Seeing the opponent's mistake, Morris calmly dribbled the ball and broke through.
"Esing has been passed..."
