Chapter 594 Super Efficiency

Millwall's goal occurred in the No.203 minute. Morris and Sneijder cooperated to find space to complete the cross, and Vardy followed up to complete the goal.

This goal came a little suddenly.

The change of situation felt too fast, Millwall suddenly played a strong attack, and then completed the goal.

Olympiacos coach Soliez couldn't accept it. He even had a feeling: Olympiacos played well at the beginning, just because the opponent deliberately "performed poorly". Then the opponent's performance improved, and the team was immediately suppressed continuously. There is not much strength left.

In fact, no matter how strong Millwall is, no matter how mature his tactics are, it is impossible for him to change so quickly.

Zhang Yang's decision to let Morris play is tantamount to a temporary change of formation and tactical play. It is a somewhat dangerous decision, because it is impossible for the players to change their playing style and habits on the court as a whole.

If it is placed on a player, and suddenly changes from the "siege" style of play to the "competition for the midfield while attacking" style of play, it may be able to adapt quickly. It will be different if it is replaced by the entire team. A team There are eleven players, and the team will always be neatly lined up by one person. Eleven members may be behind or front, and it is easy for the whole to have loopholes.

It is not because of Morris's appearance that Millwall has fundamentally changed the lineup. It is even said that because of the sudden adjustment in a short period of time, there is a certain degree of discomfort on the whole.

Unfortunately, the gap between the two sides is too great.

Olympiacos failed to seize the opportunity. Their offense can be described as monotonous. Most of them relied on a strong center. The two sides played a little scattered and gave very little support. O'Neill and Pires, compared to the opponent's The wide players are very strong in strength and experience, and there is no room for the opponent to play, so Olympiacos can only look for opportunities in the middle.

It's not easy to play in the middle!

After Morris played, the two defensive midfielders became a strong blocker, which immediately paralyzed Olympiacos' offense. Millwall also took the opportunity to play a tailwind. wave.

Olympiacos was not prepared for this, and it was the first time they faced such a crazy offensive.

Grabbed the ball and was counter-robbed before it was passed.

The offense can't play, and the defense can't keep up.

When this situation appeared, Olympiacos panicked as a whole, and Millwall took the opportunity to find an opportunity.

----

In a short period of time, it was difficult for Solieiz to understand such a complicated change of game situation, but he could see Millwall's offense and goals, and he also knew that the game situation was not good for the team.

Now it's not just a goal, but the overall inability to compete with Millwall.

This is a huge problem.

In the head-to-head confrontation, the two sides showed a huge overall strength and a gap in performance. Anyone can fully understand it just by watching the game a few times.

Millwall has the upper hand.

Individual player ability, overall coordination, on-the-spot performance, coupled with superior tactics to control the rhythm, Olympiacos felt a little helpless.

After Millwall celebrated the goal and the game restarted, he still took the absolute initiative.

The tactics of the two sides are theoretically confrontational, but the football is under the control of Millwall most of the time. They not only control the ball, but also attack very quickly. On average, there will be a shot every two to three minutes.

Such a high frequency of shooting also put Olympiacos' defense on the verge of collapse. The forward players could not consider counterattacking, and all retreated to the goal to participate in the defense.

The game has thus become a half-time offensive and defensive battle.

Millwall's judgment on the game is to break the dense defense. He also trained various ways to break the dense defense before the game, and they can all come in handy.

In the 32nd minute, taking advantage of a corner kick, Luca Toni successfully fought for the top and sent the ball into the goal to help Millwall score the second goal.

In the 41st minute, Simpson scored with a direct free kick.

At this point, it can be said that Olympiacos has collapsed a bit.

Next, seeing Morris score a goal with a strong shot from the outside, the fans in the auditorium were not surprised, and even their thoughts of celebrating were a lot less.

The first half ended 4-0.

The mentality of Olympiacos was a bit broken. Many players were a little numb when they heard the whistle. They didn't know what the meaning of the 45 minutes in the second half was.

Maybe the media can help them find meaning. British BBC radio commentator Lineker exaggeratedly said, "Millwall and Real Madrid won five goals in the first round, and they scored four in just 45 minutes. One goal, if the first half is over, maybe we can sympathize with other players who have a chance to compete for the top scorer, they didn't get the top scorer, just because they didn't play for Millwall."

"In the Millwall team so far, Vardy has scored three goals, Simpson has three goals, Luca Toni has two goals, each of them has more goals than most teams in the first two rounds combined. .”

"Perhaps Millwall has already pre-booked the scorer list, including No.1, No.2 and No.3. Other teams have outstanding shooters and can only compete for the fourth place at most..."

Lineker's statement is of course a bit exaggerated, but there is no doubt that there is some truth to it. The Champions League group stage has only passed one and a half games, and the goals of the three Millwall players have reached or exceeded two. It is really difficult. imagine.

After this game, the three of them have a high probability of occupying the top three in the scorer list, and it is a bit scary for a team to take the top three in the scorer list.

Other teams should pray that Olympiacos is better.

----

The game mode of the second half was not much different from the first half. Millwall still took the initiative, but it can be noticed that Olympiacos' defense was much tighter than that of the first half.

From this perspective, Soliez did a good job.

Even if the team played extremely passively, conceding four goals in the half was very irritating, but Soliez still remembered what the goal was before the game.

Not to win, not to draw, but to learn about Millwall.

In the first half, Solieiz and the whole of Olympiacos were aware of Millwall's strong attack.

Now is the time to experiment with defense.

When Olympiacos stopped flustered and played solid defense, it became difficult for Millwall to score goals.

Among the top 32 teams in the UEFA Champions League, Olympiacos is one of the worst teams, but there are no underdogs in the UEFA Champions League, and each of them is a top-notch team in various European leagues, which must be of a certain level.

Olympiakos is focused on defense, the goal cannot be said to be airtight, and it has become quite stable. The Millwall players are a bit "show off their skills". The game has reached this point, and the result has long been doomed. They just play freely. .

Many players have become "independent". Occasionally, the players will also conduct "cooperative training", and complete one-kick kicks in a row. The wonderful and wonderful cooperation caused cheers from the audience, but the intensity of the goal was low. Quite a lot.

Zhang Yang also allowed the players to "relax" the game, winning or losing is the most important thing. It doesn't make much sense to beat the opponent by a big score, and it may "annoy" the opponent.

That's not good news.

This round is a match at the Neil Stadium, and the next match will go to Greece. Zhang Yang does not want to see the team encounter strong hostility in Greece.

But in line with the principle that skills are not wasted, when the game progressed to No. 801 minutes, when he noticed that Vardy had a chance, Zhang Yang still used the method of speaking, and Vardy also scored the last goal.

That was a very classic goal.

Vardy received a pass from outside the penalty area. He took it forward personally, trying to get rid of the opponent's central defender, and then surrounded by front and back, he suddenly kicked and shot.

The football passed between the two defenders and flew into the left corner of the goal against the post.

Five to zero!
In the end, Millwall defeated Olympiacos as a guest by a big score and won the second game of Group C of the Champions League group stage.

After the game, many media reports on Millwall were somewhat exaggerated, because Millwall created two consecutive 'five to zero', [-] to [-] with Real Madrid, and [-] to [-] with Olympiacos.

Two games, ten goals, no conceded a goal, Millwall is the best team in the Champions League, even the Greek media had to sigh, "Millwall played the strength and prestige of the defending champion!"

Vardy has also been highlighted and he is considered the top performer as he scored two goals, plus two goals against Real Madrid, he is the top scorer in the Champions League with four goals No. [-] on the list.

At the same time, it should be noted that Vardy also ranks first in the Premier League scorer list. In the past nine league rounds, Vardy played eight times, scoring two goals against Manchester City and Reading, and scored two goals against Tottenham. In the Thorn game, he completed a hat-trick and scored three goals.

Seven goals in eight games in the league!

Four goals in two Champions League games!

Such high efficiency makes people think of Darren Bent, who left last season. Bent's efficiency is also very high, and his scoring performance is dominant. Many people believe that Bent's departure will affect Millwall's efficiency.

Now it seems that it does not exist at all!

Vardy quickly replaced Bent, and even performed better than Bent.

"unimaginable!"

"The Times" used this word to describe Vardy's performance, but the reason for the analysis was not to praise Vardy, but to talk about Millwall's tactics and publicity. Quick, Henry's departure has an impact on Arsenal. Van Nistelrooy's departure had a huge impact on Manchester United for a season, but Bent, the Champions League and league double scorer, left Millwall without any impact? "

"Why did this happen? We can only attribute the reason to Millwall's tactics and overall strength, rather than the sudden outbreak of a single player. After all, Bent's performance in Tottenham Hotspur It’s not as prominent and outstanding.”

"Perhaps the real answer to this question can only be found in the mouth of head coach Zhang Yang!"
