Chapter 558 We Still Need Learning Experience

After finishing the shot, Simpson immediately turned around, waved his arms wantonly, and kept shouting in celebration. He didn't need to confirm the result at all. He had absolute confidence that the football must have been scored.

The next moment, there was also a huge cheer in the stadium.

"The ball went in—!"

"2 to 0!"

"Goooooooooooal!!!!!!"

The stadium announcer Jon Brown let out a long roar, his enthusiasm ignited the Millwall fans in the stands, and the fans cheered everywhere in the background, "Simpson! Simpson! Second goal! Simpson clean and tidy Get the ball in!"

"It was just a chance created by Braniff, he swayed Mikel into the penalty area, passed a wonderful pass, Vardy in the middle was very realistic and almost attracted all the attention, but he finally put the ball. Missed it, and Simpson followed up and scored the ball!"

"Millwall launched a series of cooperation, in the Chelsea penalty area! Chelsea's penalty area! Braniff's pass is beautiful, Vardy's performance is also very good. No other Chelsea players would have thought that there would be a sudden rush from behind. Make a Simpson!"

Jon Brown did not forget to joke, "Perhaps the Oscars should award Vardy a 'Best Actor in a Football Game'."

No matter how wonderful Vardy's performance was, he was not the player who scored the goal. Many people still yelled Simpson's name.

The celebrations of the Millwall players were chaotic, everyone went to hug Simpson, even Maxi, Sneijder, they all knew what the second goal meant--
The game is almost over.

They will beat Chelsea to get their first championship of the season - the Community Shield!
All the Millwall fans were aware of this, and they cheered heartily from the stands. With less than 10 minutes left in the game, they could celebrate the victory in advance.

Millwall coaching bench.

Zhang Yang, Pierce, and the substitute players and staff also huddled together, shouting victory together.

Zhang Yang was squeezed in the middle, with a faint smile on his face, he was not as excited as the others, he just stood there and looked at the field, and occasionally said something to the people next to him, he was also happy about the situation.

Community Shield is nothing.

What made Zhang Yang feel relaxed was the situation of the game. This game must be won. A 'good start' is very meaningful. The team scored two goals, so there is nothing to worry about.

While others can say 'Millwall basically won', Zhang Yang can say with certainty, "We definitely won!"

The reason is... the magical ability has not been used yet.

Zhang Yang has always maintained that he can't say what he says, because there is no good opportunity, and when there is a good opportunity, the team directly scores the ball.

This is a bit of an annoyance.

Even if Chelsea could get a chance, Zhang Yang decided to let it disappear.

Means are not important, victory is important.

On the other side of the Chelsea coaching bench, the situation is much more bleak. Seeing Simpson complete the goal, the first reaction of the head coach Grant was to lament, "Sure enough, the winger stepped in!"

Grant analyzed Millwall's 'routine' and told the players about it during the intermission. He also implemented it at the beginning of the second half, but the team hoped to score a goal later, because they were still behind the score and defensively. Inadvertently, Millwall still used the 'winger to plug in' to complete the final fatal blow.

There is no alternative.

What Grant didn't know was that because of this goal, the Chelsea players had a better impression of him.

Chelsea players were unfamiliar with Grant before, but now they find that the Israelis still have a way of analyzing tactics. He constantly emphasizes defending the wing, and Millwall really used the wing to get in to get the final goal. Even Forward Vardy is just 'fake' to attract defense, and the scoring process is exactly the same as Grant's analysis.

Chelsea players also have some recognition for Grant, but their mentality is more desperate. Even the most motivated players know that they have no chance. Losing the Community Shield at the start of the game is definitely not a good sign.

Millwall's defense is good, they want to rely on the last time to score two goals to tie the score, it is really like a dream.

That was an absolute miracle.

But miracles are not easy to create, and the game basically has no chance.

Millwall made a good start to the season, and they have to face the fact that they lost the championship in the first game.

----

Chelsea did not give up easily.

In the final minutes of the game, they still launched a stormy offensive towards Millwall's goal, hoping to score a goal.Scoring a goal quickly also means having hope again, even if there is not much time left, hope is better than no hope.

Chelsea fought fiercely and vented their dissatisfaction with the score into the game.

The anger on both sides was on the rise.

Chelsea's Mikel and Kalou received a yellow card respectively, and Millwall also received a yellow card for Braniff. When he fought with the opponent, he was considered too aggressive and too dangerous.

Braniff felt that he was wronged and kept complaining to his teammates.

The referee will not change because of his dissatisfaction, and the referee also deterred the players on the field with consecutive yellow cards, temporarily suppressing the fierce situation.

In the last 5 minutes, Millwall defended the goal and did not give Chelsea any chance.

Chelsea attacked again and again, but it didn't work.

Pizarro, whom Grant had high hopes for, hardly showed any performance. Malouda was slightly better, but he only passed the ball with his teammates and had a good cross.

That's all.

With the whistle of the referee, the Community Shield game ended. Relying on the goals of Pires and Simpson, Millwall defeated Chelsea 2-0 and completed the successful defense of the Community Shield. London Derby'.

This result was unacceptable to Chelsea supporters.

The history of the battle between Chelsea and Millwall is a history book full of tragedy. A history can be written in two seasons. Chelsea fans regard Millwall as an absolute enemy. It is lower than the real rival Fulham. After all, no matter how "hostile" Fulham is, it has not snatched Chelsea's championship.

This defeat also made Chelsea fans dissatisfied. The team seemed to have no chance. Millwall scored a goal in the second half, as if to say, "It's easy to win."

Chelsea lost.

Judging from the game scene, Chelsea and Millwall were evenly divided. They were not at an absolute disadvantage, and there were also many offensive opportunities. The number of shots in the game was only two fewer than Millwall. Considering Chelsea's focus is on defense, so this gap is not called a gap.

So why did Chelsea lose?
Up front efficiency!

Even the most ordinary fans can know that the loss is due to the efficiency of the striker. With the same number of shots, Millwall scored two goals and Chelsea did not score.

This is the striker gap!
The players who scored Millwall's goal were left and right midfielders, or left and right wingers, but in fact, they played a very smooth cooperation between the midfield and the frontcourt, especially the latter goal, the midfield and the wing, the midfield and the midfielder. The tacit understanding between the strikers allowed them to cooperate in the Chelsea penalty area, and finally the left and right wingers stepped forward to complete the fatal blow.

Chelsea can also play smoothly, but the chances created are not as good as Millwall, and the level of finishing is also very average.

Many fans thought it was Shevchenko's problem. Shevchenko had three shot opportunities in the first half, but they were all wasted in the end, without even creating a threat.

Some fans criticized Pizarro's lack of performance.

Even Drogba, who has been on the field and hit Millwall's goal as a center, was complained by many fans, because Drogba only attracted the defense, and only had one poor shot, and the header was completely missed. up.

Chelsea's support media is more professional. They think Chelsea performed well, but the problem lies in their defense on the wing.

"Millwall's two goals are almost a routine. Vardy attracts the defense, the midfielder advances to split the side, and the wide players plug in to complete the goal."

"Chelsea focused on defending in the middle and didn't care too much about the wing, which allowed Millwall to find opportunities in a row."

"Chelsea's overall performance is still good. From the game scene, we can see that the two sides must be competing at the same level. The ultimate reason for Chelsea's loss lies in the targeted defensive arrangement."

"In this regard, Grant must not have done a good job, and he probably doesn't know how to deal with Millwall."

"..."

Chelsea supported the media to attribute the reason to Grant. They also discussed that Grant would lead Chelsea for a few games, but in fact, Chelsea players became somewhat respectful and trusting of Grant because of Grant's arrangements.

After the game, the Chelsea club also slapped the media. Just after losing the Community Shield, the club's official website issued a statement saying, "The club and Grant signed a one-year contract. He will lead Chelsea in various competitions in the new season. competition."

How many games did you lead?

The Israelis are going to lead the team for a season!
The media suddenly exploded!
----

Millwall didn't care about how Chelsea exploded. Winning the first championship of the new season must be a celebration.

All the staff celebrated excitedly on the court.

Halfway through, each player, including coaches and staff, was interviewed separately. Zhang Yang was the core of the interview. Facing the BBC TV reporter, he said in a low-key manner, "Winning is expected and unexpected. Our team The goal is to win, but no one can judge football as a sport."

"I am very happy to see the players doing well. Here I want to praise some players, Kevin, he is very active on the field, and Pires, Simpson, the goal will receive a lot of attention, I will not say more, But a few players that a lot of people probably ignore, Jamie, David, and all of our defensive players."

"The outside reports will only say that we scored two goals, but rarely say that we did not concede. I think the latter is the key. If the opponent scores, we will be tied."

"This is where I am most satisfied. Defense is the foundation of a team. I have always emphasized this. The players implement my ideas. They put a lot of energy into defense."

Next, the BBC reporter asked Zhang Yang to comment on his opponent Chelsea, especially their head coach Grant.

Zhang Yang said, "Chelsea is a top club, I believe no one will deny this. Their luck is not very good, yes, when they play against us, they always have difficulty scoring goals, thanks to our defense. But Luck is also a big factor, our two teams have played against each other many times, and I think it’s unbelievable that we can beat Chelsea most of the time.”

Zhang Yang also made a surprised expression, as if what he said was true.

The look was interpreted as 'young innocence'.

The media that supported Chelsea felt as disgusted as eating flies when reporting. If Zhang Yang said that Millwall beat Chelsea with strength, they would feel better. After all, it was the head coach of Millwall who said it, not their analysis. from.

On the other hand, they don't always talk about bad luck when reporting.

Once is luck, twice is luck, loses every time... Or is it luck?This kind of modesty is a bit like irony.

Zhang Yang continued, "As for Grant...I'm not familiar with Grant. I met him. He gave me a friendly feeling, not like...ahem, you should understand. I believe there must be a reason for Chelsea to choose Grant. .He should have a certain level, maybe Chelsea will change their style under him? It's hard to say, but I will wish him success."

The media interviews are not over yet.

The new season is about to start, Millwall won the first championship, what is the next goal?
This is something that many people care about.

Zhang Yang said in a low-key manner, "We have already won two championships. It is difficult for any team to win championships in a row. Three times... I can't imagine it, so we still set our goals lower. The semi-finals are already great, but in recent years, the competition in the Premier League has become fiercer, and it is not easy to win good results."

Such a low-key speech made the BBC reporter couldn't help complaining, "Mill Volvo has won the championship twice, and they even said that the Premier League is 'competitive'. What do other teams say?"

The BBC reporter has a good impression of Zhang Yang, because Zhang Yang has been an intern at the BBC, and he can be regarded as a former "colleague".

After this former colleague 'changed his job', his promotion speed was too fast, but his character was still very humble.

The reporter commented so.

If you think about it from another angle, if you lead Millwall to win consecutive league championships, you must be the champion when talking about the season!
no doubt!

Zhang Yang doesn't know what the reporters in front of him think. Millwall has won two league championships, and Millwall is bombarded outside. There are all kinds of voices that don't support him. He has to keep a low profile and win the championship silently. Why bother? What about attracting hatred with words?
The same goes for the Champions League.

"Our goal in the Champions League is to qualify for the group stage. Although we are the defending champions in the new season, we are just a new club and newcomers to the Champions League. We still need to learn from other teams..."
