Chapter 629 It's a pity to win the game
The outside media are analyzing Millwall's problems.?Sui {Dream} Xiao◢.1a
The goal in the last round of the league was Suarez, and Luca Tony was obviously in poor condition. In addition, Vardy was not seen in two consecutive league rounds. Some media even speculated that "Vardy may be injured, but it was not announced."
But soon Millwall's training scene was powerfully responding to the gossip. Vardy was very energetic in normal training.
But it's just Valdi.
Millwall's performance on the outside is obviously a little tired. Players in the front, middle and back three have been in a bad state in the last two games.
This is a fact.
Zhang Yang also had a headache about this. He hoped to get back to his condition as soon as possible, but the first thing he came was bad news. Morris sprained ankle during training and needed two weeks to rest. He would miss all the games during Christmas.
Zhang Yang was helpless about this.
The outside media immediately had something to say, and they took Morris as an example, "Milwall is about to experience a wave of injuries!"
"First it's Morris, then who?"
Zhang Yang was not worried about this. Morris' injury was just an accident. The players' training status showed that they had recovered well one by one. The most representative one was Vardy, who was already lively and could handle the competition.
The other players are also very good.
This is also related to Zhang Yang's proper rotation in the past half month. Even in the game against Manchester United, the players who should rest were still rested. After that, in the game against Olympiacos, all the players in good physical condition were played. They played against Middlesbrough and sent out half of the main lineup. Even if the state still had a little impact, the most dangerous moment had already survived.
The gaze of Yang is already on Christmas.
Christmas.
For ordinary people, it is an important festival of the year. For Premier League clubs, it means a difficult schedule. Generally, clubs have to play every three days. If the schedule is adjusted, if it is closer, it will face a game every two days.
Millwall participated in the World Club Cup and was moved to Christmas just one game, so he naturally belonged to a team with a close schedule.
On December 26, on the first day of the Christmas game, they will challenge Newcastle United away.
On December 28, we will face Blackburn at home.
On December 30, we will face Liverpool led by Benitez at home.
On January 3, we will also challenge Bolton away.
Such a intensive schedule makes people feel numb, and Zhang Yang also makes the team fully prepared. In order to maintain their condition, each player must complete training and maintain two nutritious meals a day.
There is no vacation.
On Christmas Day, Zhang Yang only asked the players to have a half-day holiday and took time to get together with his family. He simply lived in the club, alone, and seemed a little pitiful.
He did not go home.
When Ivanka returned to New York, there was only one person left at home, including nanny and bodyguards. She had no way to communicate with them. It would be better to consider the team's affairs in the club.
An unexpected call made Zhang Yang very warm. The caller was Old John. He seemed to know that Ivanka had left, so he invited Zhang Yang to spend Christmas together at home.
Zhang Yang agreed.
At Old John's house, he met Catherine, but nothing happened, just had a warm Christmas dinner together.
When sitting in the living room, Zhang Yang couldn't help but recall the past. At that time, he lived in the room upstairs, and Old John always asked for rent. It felt very interesting.
At that time, he had just come here and had no special pursuits. He just thought that it would be great to make some money and live a life.
Now my mentality is completely different.
Even in order to marry Ivanka and for his precious daughter, he must build a career.
Zhang Yang talked with Catherine.
Katherine is already a second-tier female star and has changed a lot, but she is still a little innocent and has not been polluted by the entertainment industry.
After John Old and Ebson went upstairs, Zhang Yang and Catherine sat in the car together, talking about Catherine's work, the pressures they face, the difficulties they encountered, etc. The atmosphere was a bit ambiguous and warm, but Zhang Yang had a calm heart. He did not drink, so he would not have anything randomly.
They chatted for a long time.
When the time was almost over, Zhang Yang sent Catherine back, but he didn't come down again as soon as he went upstairs.
Zhang Yang felt very depressed.
He trusted Catherine so much, but was forced to the bed.
The violent woman has indeed not changed!
Still very violent!
At the beginning, Zhang Yang could only resist silently, and later he could only obey silently. It was a bit ridiculous that he was not defeated by Catherine, but by his own determination.
When he returned to the club again, Zhang Yang calmed down.
"There are always a lot of helplessness in life!"
Zhang Yang sighed.
He didn't have time to think about anything else, so he led the team to Newcastle that morning to challenge Newcastle United away.
There is no suspense in this game.
Newcastle United is also a strong team, but Millwall has recovered for so long and the players are in good shape. They played with a half-line team and Millwall easily won two goals.
After the game, the Newcastle United coach said helplessly, "It is useless to play against Millwall because the team performs well. If they perform poorly, we can take away points."
After winning the first Christmas game, Millwall's unbeaten game continued to 56 games. Millwall's condition shocked all the media, but they quickly set their sights on the next round-
Blackburn.
The media suddenly had new words, and they gave the game special meaning, which was the so-called "reincarnation curse".
The ‘Reincarnation Curse’ is the spell that the team has created an unbeaten record. The most famous one is the 58-round unbeaten created by A Milan. The record starts with A Milan and Parma. The two teams ended the game 0-0, and the record finally ended with Parma. Parma defeated A Milan 1-0 at home.
This is a cycle of reincarnation.
There are several other teams who have created unbeaten results in dozens of consecutive games, and they are trapped in the "reincarnation curse" like A Milan.
In the 1993-1994 season, Dutch powerhouse Ajax defeated William II and began a record of 54 consecutive unbeaten games. In January 1996, Ajax was defeated by William II and the record ended.
In the domestic A League, Dalian Wanda defeated Shanghai Shenhua in 1995 and won 55 consecutive unbeaten games in the A League. In the end, their unbeaten record was ended by Shenhua in Shanghai.
Now it's Millwall.
Millwall's unbeaten record began with the match against Blackburn. When he met Blackburn again, the media promoted the "reincarnation curse", believing that Blackburn was likely to end Millwall's unbeaten.
The media thought that Millwall had set a perfect result for his unbeaten record.
Unfortunately, Zhang Yang disagreed.
If the unbeaten record is ended, the task will not be completed. He does not think that Braniff is capable of challenging Millwall away. When he heard reporters talking about the so-called curse, Zhang Yang was still very low-key. "This is a perfect setting. I also believe that Blackburn has the strength to defeat Millwall. The team's condition has been unstable recently, and I can only say that we will work hard to play."
Zhang Yang's statement immediately gave the media confidence, and their reports became even more popular.
Then……
Millwall massacred the visiting Blackburn 6-0 at home. In the whole game, Blackburn had no power to fight back. Just four minutes into the game, Luca Tony broke the goal.
Next is Millwall's performance time.
Some time ago, Millwall was in a bad state, and every player was holding back his energy. The outside world kept reporting on news that Millwall was about to lose, which made them feel very unhappy. They vented their mood in the game.
Blackburn is tragic.
After the game, Zhang Yang continued to talk about the 'reincarnation curse', "That's very interesting. But some regrets are that we won the game. It's really a pity..." He said with regret on his face, as if he had not lost the game, it was a failure.
Chapter completed!
