Chapter 64: The Strong Millwall (Part 1)

When the Millwall fans in the stands saw the forest players running out in a hurry and were in a mess, they burst into laughter. This set the tone for the game - this will definitely not be a friendly match for everyone, but a real knockout match!

Besides...there has been a tense relationship between Forest fans and Millwall fans since the Gavin incident. So Millwall fans are happy to laugh at the almost late Forests.

Tang En walked out of the corridor, stopped at the side of the court and looked up and looked around the stands. Large pieces of blue, mixed with white. Red was squeezed in a corner, jumping tenaciously in the blue and white surroundings... That was the arms waving by the fans of the Forest Team.

Away game? Laugh? You will be laughing later... Tang En hummed in his heart and then walked towards the coach's seat. On the court, Dawson, as the captain, was guessing the side with the opponent's captain in front of the referee.

Millwall's captain is Dennis Wise, who had played with Chelsea in Wimbledon, the small man.

Wise is an English player who impressed Don.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         �

The first jersey that Don En bought was also Chelsea's blue jersey. He especially liked the lion on the Chelsea team logo. Later, with the departure of Gulit, Viali, Flo and others, as Zora grew older, Don En gradually transformed into a "fraternal" fan who did not love the team the most. But that blue memory has since remained in Don En's memory.

Wise, who was the captain of Chelsea back then, was a player that Donne liked very much. He liked his fierce style and the courage to fight Keane and Vieira.

When he cheered for this little man with his fists clenched in front of the TV, he never thought that one day he would lead the team to become his opponent and enemy.

If his player is fiercely tackled by him, he is afraid he will curse himself. He doesn't even think about cheering.

Tang En shook his head and threw his past memories out of his head. I am Tony. Tang En, I am the head coach of Nottingham Forest, I am Millwall's enemy and opponent! Today either you die or I die!

Through the League Cup championship, we will be qualified to participate in the UEFA Cup next season. This is the most feasible thing that Don En chose from countless plans to enhance the team's reputation and rebuild the team in a short period of time.

The FA Cup schedule is too long and the possibility of meeting a strong team is the highest. This path is first abandoned by Don En. The League Cup is the least valued cup among the three major cups. Many teams even use the League Cup as their youth team, reserve teams to warm up and find their state. Moreover, the League Cup schedule is very short. The two semi-finals of the League Cup this season are in January and the finals are in February. In other words, Don En can concentrate on keeping the team's state within these three months and striving to compete for the championship. Then strive for the qualification of the Premier League with all your strength.

Tang En had a team building plan in his mind and a list of players to buy. Since he traveled through this world, he had advantages that others could not match - for example, he would know some of them before he could become a talent. But he is still unknown now. For example, he knew the right time to buy people in the future, when to spend the least money and make the most profit.

If Forest continues to hang out in the First Division, the possibility of getting those players is slim. At least your team must be ranked first in the 20 Premier League teams or qualify for European competitions.

When he was a fan, Tang En did not attach much importance to the League Cup, thinking that he was just a vassal of the Championship Cup. But now he deeply understands the role of the League Cup.

This is the first coordinate for Nottingham Forest to re-launch!

So no matter how bad the situation is facing in this game - traffic jams, meeting opponent fans by the subway, and playing against teams with tough styles... these cannot stop Tang Enqiu's belief in winning.

A crisp whistle sounded, followed by a huge noise that surged overwhelmed, awakening the trance of Tang En.

Looking around the court and looking at the crazy fans in the stands. He knew that the Crystal Palace League was just a warm-up, and the real game only started now!

Rebrov originally wanted to show his personal skills in front of Millwall players, but as soon as he pushed the football away, Wise knocked out. The referee's whistle sounded, which immediately caused a boo in the stands.

Looking at the gritted teeth and ferocious Wise, listening to the endless booing and insulting in the stands, Rebrov knew that today's game was much more difficult than he thought.

Tang En, who saw this scene in the coach's seat on the sidelines, said to himself: "Wise, the strong-willed Millwall team. The strong-willed Millwall fans..." He now felt more and more that he could not arrange specific tactics for the team because he was on the subway.

If football can be paused like basketball. He will make corresponding changes now. Unfortunately, he can only wait until the break and hope that the opponent will not score in the first half.

Defensive counterattack... Two defensive midfielders are the key, and I hope Eugen Pope and Gunnarson can hold on.

"Fifteen minutes have passed! The game is in progress at a speed of one hundred miles per hour, and the football whizzes over the players' heads. Millwall's players, led by their captain, "Roaring Mouse", launched crazy pressing and attacking against the Forest. Any idea of ​​playing with footwork is wiped out in the "Two Lions" pressing like a wolf!" Motson gave such a phased summary of the 15-minute game. He said it was good at all, and it was very vivid.

In the first half of the season, under the leadership of the new head coach Colimore, the Forests returned to the tradition of paying attention to control and playing delicate cooperation. Although the tactical reasons for Colimore's failed coaching career only accounted for very little or very small part, they cannot be ignored.

He asked the players to cooperate more on the ground, and even in front of the penalty area, they should try to pass the football into the goal area and shoot. The commentator at that time commented on the Forest's football was - "Colimore hoped that his forward could pass the opponent's goalkeeper and then shoot again against the empty goal."

This style of play is very good, but it is too cumbersome and difficult to win the ball.

Millwall's head coach Alan McClary (alan` mcleary) specifically formulated a tactic for the team to press the whole game based on this characteristic of the Forest. At present, he has done quite successfully.

The momentum that Millwall players showed at home completely shocked the subway because of traffic jams. Then they met a group of fierce fans who looked fierce and vicious, fighting wits and courage to deal with it. Then they ran up to hundreds of meters and quickly changed their equipment. Only three minutes before the game started, the exhausted Nottingham Forest players who appeared on the court in a mess and were tossed.

Yes, this is the situation in the game now, and the Forest team is gradually at a disadvantage. It is almost impossible to say that the broken things encountered before the game have no impact on the team, but what can Tangen do? This is luck. He only hopes that the team can survive this period and he has enough time to adjust the team at halftime. He believes that there is no problem in defeating Millwall.

The key to all is that the Forest must hold on in the current offensive where Millwall is rising and falling.

The situation was not very good, Gunnarson and Eugen Pope were almost busy. Michael Dawson and Wes Morgan were under great pressure.

In Millwall's team, in addition to Dennis Wise, there was another person that Don knew before crossing the line - an Australian wearing a No. 4 jersey and appeared in an offensive forward position, 23-year-old Tim Cahill (tim`cahill).

When Don En knew him, he still passed the wonderful last moment of Australia's team against Japan in the 2006 World Cup. Cahill scored two goals alone and became a hero. It was also from that game that made Don En an Australian fan during the World Cup. Unfortunately, they lost to Italy in the end.

Cahill is not as mature as the World Cup, but his offensive ability is enough to give Don En a headache.

Nottingham Forest finally got a chance to counterattack. As soon as the ball was passed to David Johnson in front, it was cut off by Millwall's Australian central defender Kevin Muscat (kevin` muscat).

"Foof!" Don Eun, who was sitting on the coach's seat, jumped up suddenly, this was a tackle behind the scenes!

But the referee ignored his shouting, David Johnson fell to the ground in pain, and Mascart kicked the football to the captain Wise who came back to pick up, and then Wise organized the attack.
Chapter completed!
