The first half score excited Millwall supporters.

In football matches, the gap between one ball is already quite large, and the difference between the two balls is quite large.

Millwall scores one more goal, and the title can be determined in advance.

Chelsea supporters were all depressed. They came with the idea of ​​seeing the team win the championship. Unexpectedly, halfway through the game, the team was fed two goals.

Is there still a chance in the second half?

The media, commentators, and football commentators also analyzed the first half of the game and looked forward to the second half that Millwall had a huge advantage and had a great hope of winning the final championship.

During the discussion among the crowd, the atmosphere in Millwall's locker room was not as relaxed as expected.

Zhang Yang's face no longer had a smile, but only a serious expression. He had already woken up from the advantage of leading two goals.

When Darren Bent scored his second goal, Zhang Yang, like everyone else, began to look forward to the championship, and what followed was a huge sense of joy, but after the game started again, he quickly calmed himself down.

The game is not over yet!

In the history of the UEFA Champions League, there are many examples of the lead being reversed. Zhang Yang does not want Millwall to be one of them and is regarded as a textbook for future generations to comment on football games.

Zhang Yang must remind everyone to stay calm, sober, and work hard until the last minute. Only when the game is truly over will the team win the victory.

As long as there is still time, the lead will be only temporary.

Zhang Yang doesn't need to give an example at all.

The "Istanbul Night" two years ago is the best example. Liverpool's three-goal reverse AC Milan and became an eternal classic in Champions League history. In the Champions League final last year, Barcelona also led Arsenal and was eventually tied by Arsenal. Arsenal also broke out in a penalty shootout, beating Barcelona to win the final championship.

The latter one has a lot to do with Zhang Yang, but others don’t know it, and it can be used as an example.

No matter what, the team must face the game and the opponents, and must not be careless. It is not absolutely impossible to be reversed by Chelsea at that time. When all players are happy, Zhang Yang must pour cold water to make them all wake up, "We did a good job! Everyone performed well!"

"Darren! Two balls, beautifully done, and the celebration is also very handsome!"

Zhang Yang said these words, and then he said seriously without waiting for the other person to respond, "But I must tell you that as long as the game is not over, we will not win!"

"At this point, you can guess what I want to say. That's right, I just want to pour cold water on it, because there are still 45 minutes left in the second half, anything can happen in the game. We must be serious and persist!"

"As long as there is still one minute, everyone will continue to work 100%! Persist until the end and fight to the end, we will definitely win!"

Zhang Yang said seriously, "Continue to stick to tactics in the second half. I believe you all know how to play - solid defense and fast attack! The opponent is not in a hurry, and we are not in a hurry. Do a good job of defense and attack with the opportunity, but the focus is on defense. We must use the score advantage to let the game enter our rhythm!"

Zhang Yang doesn’t need to talk much about playing style, every player knows what to do.

Millwall is very familiar with Chelsea. He deals with it more than once or twice in the league. After each lead, he will stabilize defense and counterattack. The old-fashioned style of play is very good.

Next, the players have a rest and prepare for the second half.

The locker room has also become much quieter.

However, in the quiet atmosphere, there were still many players discussing in a low voice. Zhang Yang performed very seriously and his words were very eye-catching. But after all, he was the two balls ahead and they were the one with an advantage, so the players still felt very relaxed.

Midfield time passes quickly.

Every player felt that after just sitting for a while, time passed, and they had to stand up again, cheer up and walk out of the locker room door, and return to the court to prepare for the game.

The fans' feelings are completely opposite to those of the players.

In the eyes of the fans in the audience, the halftime break was a long time, and everyone couldn't wait to watch the game, but they had to wait for the time to pass. When they finally saw a player entering the stadium, the shouts in the audience immediately rang out, and as the number of players came out, the voices became louder and louder.

The Athens Olympic Stadium returned to the warm atmosphere.

As the two teams regained their positions, the game quickly began.

Neither Millwall nor Chelsea made adjustments.

Millwall led two goals in the first half, and each player performed well, so there was naturally no need to substitute. Chelsea had some players who performed poorly. For example, Bolarus, as a central defender, did nothing in defense and did not know what the specific use was. The embarrassment was here. After Carvalho was injured, Bolarus was the best candidate. Other players had their own positions. They could not let a midfielder play as a defender, and Bolarus would only continue to stay on the court.

In fact, Chelsea's strongest lineup is already on the court.

Apart from injuries and banned players, Essin, Lampard, Mikel, Drogba, Terry and other players all appeared one by one, and there was no way to make adjustments. They can only expect to perform better.

Chelsea were two goals behind and had almost no other choice. They showed their determination to tie the game at the beginning. They took the initiative to launch a fierce offensive and kept threatening Millwall's defense.

This is also Mourinho's coaching style.

Many people's coaching senses can be described in one word - conservative.

Mourinho has always paid great attention to defense. Chelsea has one of the most luxurious lineups in the world, but it uses defense as the core of its playing style. The 433 formation uses three pure iron-branded midfielders, which is also considered a pioneering move by the Portuguese. The effect is quite good, and it also makes people more impressed by Mourinho's conservatism.

What few people know is that Mourinho is also a courageous gambler. When the team he led is in a bad situation, he can completely make up his mind to take a gamble.

This is not the first time.

During the three seasons of the Premier League, Chelsea lags behind their opponents many times. Mourinho will command the team to launch a large-scale counterattack, taking advantage of the last time and a few opportunities to attack the opponent's defense at all costs, in order to equalize the score.

Many times, Mourinho succeeded.

Of course, there are times when there are failures, but no matter what, Mourinho's coaching is definitely not completely conservative.

Now facing the Champions League final and facing Mirwall and two goals behind, Mourinho's "gambler" spirit appears again. He lets the team conduct a large-scale offensive towards Mirwall's half, and it was displayed at the beginning of the second half.

This may be because he was two goals behind, or because his opponent was Millwall, but no matter what, in the face of such a strong offensive, Millwall could almost have to retreat on a large scale in order to stabilize it.

In Chelsea's offensive, there are two most threatening players, one is the offensive core Lampard and the other is the striker Drogba.

Chelsea's 433 formation has no absolute core players, only the difference between the players' personal offensive ability.

In Chelsea's midfield system, Lampard is undoubtedly the strongest offensive ability.

In the 433 formation, Lampard's position is not the middle, but his running range is very large, covering the wing and the middle, and he has participated in the offense for a large number of times. His personal ability can support him to pose a direct threat on the periphery.

In addition, Lampard can also organize the offense.

In fact, players like Lampard are not so good in their organizational offensive ability, much worse than Morris, but their running and passing outside the penalty area can also create a great threat to their opponents. With Damien Duff, Scott Parker and other players leaving the team one after another, and Robben was frequently injured and refrigerated, Lampard became more and more important.

This may also be one of the reasons why Lampard ushered in an outbreak.

This season, most of Chelsea players who play the main players are physical players, and excellent players, such as Robben, who are frequently injured and refrigerated, and have no chance to play. Shepchenko has played a lot, but it is difficult for him to integrate into the team.

Among this Chelsea team, Lampard is already considered to be of excellent skill.

Lampard has outstanding personal abilities, excellent skills, and abundant physical fitness to ensure that he continues to run. He also has many opportunities to touch the ball on the outside. In addition to his ability to shoot outside, Lampard is Chelsea's most threatening player.

Next is Drogba.

Drogba didn't touch the ball a lot, but he was too strong. Every time he received a pass, he could create a strong impact on Mirwall's defense line.

Drogba's impact is difficult to find opportunities, but it will make Mirwall's defense unstable, thus bringing opportunities to Chelsea teammates.

This is also the role of the center.

When time enters the 21st century, the role of center forwards is constantly weakened in the world's top games, but center forwards are not without effect. Center forwards can attract enough defensive attention, help teammates share pressure, and can also form threats alone. In addition, set balls and headers are capable of fighting. An excellent center forward, even if he touches very few balls, has a very powerful effect.

Millwall is a typical player who lacks center.

Millwall's forward line, Darren Bent, is a bit like a center, but he is not tall and not very strong. He is not qualified to be a standard center.

The others are also technical players.

This also leads to the fact that when encountering corner kicks and set-piece cooperation, Millwall can only rely on Livermore, Smitchell, and even defenders to go to the front to compete for a high ball. Without a center is one of the lineup defects.

Looking at Drogba who performed well on the court, Zhang Yang also thought about the question of "whether to introduce a center."

If Millwall had an excellent center forward, the flexibility of making tactics would definitely be greatly improved, and there would be no problem that a single forward would be better than a double forward like now.

With an excellent center, you can constantly test your double striker's style of play. Whether it is the traditional 442 or the 352 or 433 that have changed, you can try to play, and maybe there will be unexpected results.

So, who is more suitable?

Zhang Yang keeps living in his mind with an outstanding center forward in the future.

Looking at the game in front of him, he suddenly thought of a name - Nikola Anelka. In his memory of his previous life, Anelka would also play for Chelsea and perform very well.

What if Anelka was dug to Mirwall?

The game on the field continues.

Chelsea's offensive is quite fierce, and the one who performs most actively is Lampard. Lampard keeps running and cooperates with his teammates back and forth, which personally poses a considerable threat to Millwall's defense line.

In the 50th minute of the game, Lampard received a return pass from Joe Cole, and a shot from the outside of the penalty area hit the crossbar directly. The football bounced out of the bounds, which made people feel quite regretful, but gave Chelsea fans great hope.

When Chelsea performed well, the cheers in the audience continued to increase.

The media supporting Chelsea also shouted, "This is the real Chelsea!"

"Chelsea has found its form again!"

"Although Millwall leads two goals, it does not mean that you can win the final victory. There is more than half an hour left in the game, which is enough for Chelsea to tie..."

"Even overtakes!"

As if to confirm the media's statement, Chelsea finally scored a goal after 17 minutes of the second half.

This goal relies on the football opportunity created by Joe Cole.

Joe Cole sent a corner kick, the football went straight to the small penalty area line, Drogba jumped and swung his head to attack, Graham blocked it with his body, but the football hit Wes Morgan and bounced back into the net.

"The ball has entered!"

This is an own goal.

No matter what, a goal is a goal. Chelsea fans cheered wildly, and the commentators also shouted excitedly, "The ball has been scored! Chelsea has recovered one goal!"

"It seems like a misunderstanding..."

"Let's look at the slow motion... It's Morgan, Millwall's central defender, Wes Morgan, and the football hit his calf and bounced into the goal!"

"This is not a mistake, it should be a coincidence. Morgan had no reaction time at all. The goal might belong to Drogba, but it always belongs to Chelsea. 2-1, Chelsea recovered a goal! Drogba performed very well, his header was very powerful, Millwall goalkeeper Graham performed well, he blocked the ball with his body, but unfortunately Millwall was a little unlucky..."

With the arrival of the goal, Chelsea's support media became very excited. Recovering one goal is equivalent to seeing hope. If you are only one goal behind, the chance will increase a lot, because as long as you score another goal, Chelsea will be able to tie the score.

No one dares to say that Chelsea has a chance at this time.

"The two teams are only one goal apart now, and there is plenty of time left in the game. It's too early for Millwall to announce the victory!"

"I believe the finals have just begun!"

"It's just so exciting now!"
Chapter completed!
