Chapter 147 The Promotion of a Season

At halftime, Millwall returned to the locker room. Wise told his teammates that the team still had a chance, and they still had to fight for it, and then he made some adjustments to his tactics.

Facts have proved that Wise is still very capable of leadership. With two goals behind, Millwall actually relied on fighting spirit to play a few waves of tough offensives in the second half, but Derby County quickly suppressed it again. Relying on fighting spirit, it is really difficult to hold on for too long. Next, Millwall is very weak in counterattack, not to mention normal offensive. In the face of the suppression of Derby County's full-court pressing, their attack is really difficult to obtain. what effect.

In the 76th minute of the second half, Derby County extended their lead again.

Ribery and Morris cooperated continuously on the flanks and passed the ball to the left corner of the penalty area. Then Ribery suddenly cut inside to the middle and completed a long shot in front of the penalty area, but the ball was saved by goalkeeper Marshall, but the substitute PeschiSolido, who played, completed a supplementary shot and helped Derby County expand the score.

4:1.

At this point in the game, there is basically no suspense.

In the end, Derby County won the game 4:1 and came close to the FA Cup final. At the end of the game, all Derby County people were cheering.

This is not only a qualifying final, but also means that Derby County will definitely qualify for the UEFA Cup next year... European competitions, Derby County has not participated in more than ten years, that is they don't even think Dare to think about it, but now that Derby County has fallen into the second tier of the league, the team has realized this dream.

At this moment, many Derby County fans are looking forward to the start of next season.

......

Wan Sheng attended the press conference after the game, but he didn't say anything more, just symbolically said that he was very happy to be in the finals. For him, this result was not surprising at all.

Beating Millwall... that's all.

This was to be expected. Perhaps the surprise was that Millwall was drawn, which was unexpected, but that accident has been overjoyed, and now there is nothing to celebrate.

Likewise, journalists were not surprised by the results. Derby County are so strong. Millwall is also a League One team. The only difference between this game and the league is the venue, but can Millwall beat Derby County in another venue? It can only be imagined... At least most media reporters will not think about Millwall's victory, it is too 'fantasy'.

Derby County fans were excited about reaching the FA Cup final and qualifying for the UEFA Cup, but they also took the win over Millwall for granted, in their hearts. Derby County is already a strong team at the Premier League level. Naturally can beat Millwall in League One.

It is estimated that it is Millwall, who imagined a miracle before the game and defeated Derby County to enter the final, but obviously, the game proved that they do not have the same strength.

Millwall coach Wise expressed regret after the game. This is his regret for the team's failure to beat Derby County and his helplessness for the 1:4 loss.

In the whole game, except for a goal just opened, they really can't see hope.

Perhaps the game was also fatal to their morale. Fortunately, it is now the end of the season, and Millwall's tenth result in the league is not bad. There are not many chances to qualify for promotion, and there is no crisis of relegation. They have nothing to pursue. After this game, their season is actually over.

Wansheng didn't care what happened to Millwall. After leaving the press conference, he led the team back to the town of Great Derby County.

After returning to Great Derby County, the bus went straight to Derby County Club. After the players got off the bus one by one, Wansheng did not directly disband the team, but called everyone together, with a serious look on his face, and said, "Football. The Cup semi-final is over, we are in the final, but for us, the only goal now is to win the league!"

Hearing Wansheng's words, the players immediately became energetic.

champ...

Wansheng said about the championship before the season, but most of them didn't believe it at all. At that time, they didn't expect the team to win the championship, but now the championship is close at hand.

"Now in the media, there is a lot of arguing that we will win the championship a few rounds earlier. The most anticipated person said that it is five rounds. Of course, I also hope it is five rounds, but what I can accept in my heart is four rounds, because the penultimate round is the fifth round. , we are playing at home, and the next game is away, but you can't relax because of this, always remember that until the team disbands in the summer, it's your time to relax!"

After Wan Sheng said something, he announced that the team was disbanded.

In fact, he still has something to say, that is 'until the FA Cup final is over, it is time to relax', but he is reluctant to mention the FA Cup final now, because the opponent in that game is Manchester United, in Before the game against Tottenham, he dared to tell the players that we want to win, because Derby County is No. 1 in the Premier League and Tottenham is not in the middle of the Premier League, they still have a chance... .But Manchester United?

Even if Derby County is the League One champion, it's a bit too much worse than Manchester United... Now when it comes to the FA Cup final, it can only increase the pressure on everyone, not improve their fighting spirit, the game To take it step by step, Wansheng doesn't want to have any surprises.

......

At this moment, almost everyone who pays attention to League One is paying attention to Derby County's game, because everyone knows that Derby County will soon win the League One Championship, and the difference is only a matter of time.

In the media, most of the remarks about League One are talking about Derby County, Derby County's gorgeous results, Derby County's FA Cup, Derby County will win the championship a few rounds earlier, etc. A series of topics are all built around Derby County. .

This is the treatment of the team that is about to win the league championship.

Those who always reported bad news for Derbyshire before, and the media targeting Wansheng also died down. This may be related to the disappointment of the little princess of the Murdoch family leaving the town of Greater Derbyshire. After she fought Wansheng for a week, Finding that nothing could change the fact that the Chinese ignored her at all, and then she chose to leave 'gritting her teeth', and she didn't have time to stay in Great Derbyshire all the time.

But before Anita left, she was still determined to take revenge in the future... She believed that she would have a chance.

Her whole family is in the media, and now she has taken over some of the family's businesses. She is in charge of The Sun and The Times. Of course, she doesn't actually have to do anything, it's just a symbol, but she still has rights.

Derby County are now a League One team. Not much attention yet. But next season, they will go to the Premier League. Even if she doesn't pay attention to Derby County, she will definitely hear about the Chinese in the future. There are still many opportunities, but I hope that Chinese will not be in the Premier League sooner. Will you step down after a few games in the league?

Then she would be disappointed.

Wan Sheng didn't know the woman who was causing trouble for him. Still waiting for an opportunity. He didn't have time to care either. Now the outside world is full of positive reports on Derby County. It feels as if the whole world is watching the upgrade of Derby County.

In this surrounded attention, League One ushered in the 41st round, Derby County away to West Ham United.

This season, in the first round of the league, Derby County's opponent is West Ham United, the Premier League team last season. After being relegated to League One this season, the results have not been so good. Many people expect West Ham United to compete for the league title, but in fact, their chances of the promotion play-offs are somewhat at stake - West Ham United are currently sixth in the league, behind them Wigan Athletic, Crystal Palace, Ipswich The three teams have similar points to them, and Ipswich, the one with the biggest gap, has only three points difference.

Three points, one game, it's easy to catch up.

So the few games at the end of the season are very important to West Ham, every point is decisive for them, and they naturally attach great importance to this game against Derby County.

Now many people say that Derby County is 'sweeping' League One, which is not easy to deal with, but in fact, West Ham United have no choice. They don't want to fight recklessly with strong teams, but Wigan Athletic, Crystal Palace and Ips Vicky has played against Derby County in two rounds. They lost this game, which means that they are almost certain to fall behind in the ranking. If they are unlucky or even fall behind Ipswich, it is also possible to fall directly to the ninth place in the league. of.

This is very difficult for West Ham United to accept. After all, at the end of the season, it is extremely difficult to recover and return to sixth place in the league.

But for Derby County, and the media that follow Derby County, it doesn't seem to matter what situation West Ham faces. They care about the game between Derby County and Norwich - as long as Derby County wins, Norwich loses. ball, then Derby County turned into a 16-point lead, enough for them to win the league title five rounds early.

The two games were played at the same time, so in order to prepare for the special situation, when the FA official came to Upton Park, it was a golden trophy with a big belly and a thin shaft, and there were also pendants on the two small ears. Derby County fans They looked at the trophy on the sidelines of the game, and their eyes flashed with excitement, and when the Derby County players entered the field and walked past the trophy, their eyes also flashed with enthusiasm.

In Wansheng's view, this trophy is really not very beautiful, but he still wants to get it. For him, this is not only an 'unsightly' trophy, but also means a championship, means that he can finish football The task of training the master system, getting the highest reward, etc. In short, he is still looking forward to the championship.

In order to win the championship, Derby County fought fiercely on the field.

West Ham United players don't want to lose, because they also want a chance to upgrade, and it will be difficult to get back after losing this game, but they quickly found out that now this Derby County team is better than theirs at the beginning of the season. That team was much stronger.

In terms of personal strength, overall cooperation, etc., all aspects should be much stronger. For the former, West Ham United striker Jaime Telford has a lot of say.

The last time the two teams played against each other was the first game of the league. Derby County's performance was impressive, but West Ham United didn't play too weak. They just lost the game. They still attacked, and they attacked very well. threaten.

Jaime Telford is West Ham United's second top scorer, he's a few fewer goals than the team's top scorer Mullen, but his skills are better - most people agree, Jayme -Telford also plays in midfield most of the time, he has very good foot skills, especially good at dribbling.

In the last game, Jaime Telford continued to make breakthroughs in the frontcourt. What he remembered most was a strong guy with good physical fitness. That was Osman, and Telford didn't know it at the time. But now he knows, there are always a lot of reports about Derby County in the media, and Osman, who has performed well this season, is often featured in the media. In that game, Telford kept breaking through Osman. The guy in his memory was difficult to deal with. But it is not difficult to break through him.

But now...Jaime Telford did it according to experience and was stole three times in a row by Ottoman!

how can that be possible?

While being blamed by his teammates, Jaime Telford felt unbelievable, because in his memory, this strong guy was easy to break through, and as a result, he was stolen again and again.

He was not reconciled.

But after three defeats, he also had to accept the fact that the opponent was at the beginning of the season. Just entered the professional league. There must be no experience, and now it has been nearly a season, and the opponent has grown up, and it is not easy to break through in the same way.

In fact, not only Osman, but everyone in the entire Derby County team has improved a lot this season. Especially those young players, like Alfred, Leighton Baines and others. They have grown a lot. They were still very young at the beginning of the season. They can only be said to be good rookies. They have no experience. But now it can be said that they are very powerful professional players, although they can't keep up with those in terms of experience' Old fritters', but coupled with the growth of personal skills, they are not worse than the average top league players.

The young players are like this. The core players of the team, such as Ribery, Cahill, Maurice and others have also made great progress. It's a 2-5 point improvement, which is a very big improvement.

Like Morris, he could have been the core of the League One team, and his personal abilities are quite comprehensive, but at the Premier League level, he can only be regarded as a qualified main force for ordinary players, nothing more, but the current Morris , he is definitely qualified to play the core of a mid-level Premier League team, he can't keep up with those top stars, such as Ronaldinho, Rivaldo, etc. He naturally can't match these people, but he is not better than Simon Dayton Stars such as Weiss and Gravesson are worse, and even stronger than the average star in some aspects.

The same is true for the improvement of others. Those who work harder will improve more, and those who are lazy will improve less. There are two players who have improved the fastest in the team, one is Ivan Kru, and the other is Lu Xi. .

The former is expected by Wansheng. Ivan Crewe has been working hard since last season, and Wansheng's training plan for him is all-round. Which ability is easy to improve, just train the ability. Under such a training plan, Ivan Crewe has improved significantly. Now his data evaluation is not as good as Maurice, but not much worse, and he is very outstanding in set-piece ability-his set-piece ability It has reached 93 points, which is absolutely world-class... Especially with Wansheng's own coaching skill 'shooting' bonus, Ivan Crew's free kick is quite scary.

Because of this, although Ivan Crewe's performance is not very outstanding, he is already one of the most important players in the team next season in Wansheng's heart.

Lu Xi has improved a lot, but it is somewhat unexpected. Last summer, Wansheng even planned to sell him, but considering the depth of the bench, he still stayed in Derby County.

However, Lu Xi's personal ability is not strong, and there is no outstanding place, so he can only be a qualified substitute, but it is also good to increase the depth of the bench, especially Lu Xi's ability is still very comprehensive, he will be an excellent 'one-size-fits-all' '.

In short, this season, everyone in the Derby County team has improved a lot. They are no longer the young Derby County when they started the game. The improvement of experience and personal ability, coupled with the improvement of tactics, when West Ham United and At the beginning of the Derby County game, West Ham United players felt that the game was not what they imagined. They had expected to beat Derby County, but when they got to the game, they knew why this Derby County was able to sweep. League One.

The strength of the two teams does not seem to be on the same level...(To be continued ~^~)
