Chapter 351 The Advantages of Both Sides
Chapter 351 The Advantages of Both Sides
It has to be said that although there is a certain element of luck in this championship, it can only be won by the unremitting efforts of Southampton.
After all, although in these short four rounds, their three competitors lost one after another, Manchester City lost to Liverpool, Chelsea lost to Sunderland, and Liverpool lost to Chelsea, but if it wasn't for Southampton's own winning streak They won without giving their opponents any chance, and they couldn't catch the pie that fell from the sky.
No matter when, even if you have a destiny, you still need people and things to help you.
This champion, many people began to lament, is simply destiny!
Southampton players and fans, stimulated by this championship, greeted the rest of the game with the highest enthusiasm.
There is nothing to play in the remaining two league games, that is to say, the Champions League is worth their efforts!
At home, get rid of Atletico Madrid and enter the Champions League final in a historic way!
It was the only thing on Southampton's mind.
When the Atletico Madrid team came to Southampton, they were greeted with such enthusiasm.
Such a frenzied atmosphere is actually a huge pressure on many people. Although Atletico Madrid scored a [-]-[-] draw in the first round, this is actually a good result, but they will indeed feel more pressure in the away game .
"In any case, we have to achieve the best results." Simeone mobilized his players.
Before the match between Atletico Madrid and Southampton, another semi-final was decided in advance.
Although Chelsea performed very hard at home, William used two assists to help Benteke and Schurrle score goals, but Chelsea still scored two goals at home by Ronaldo, and finally lost [-]-[-] in two rounds.
These two goals are Ronaldo's No.15 and No.16 Champions League goals this season.
The Portuguese had already tied AC Milan's legendary striker Altafini and Messi's record of [-] goals in a single season, and these two goals allowed him to set a new record!
And then he still has a final to play, what kind of final results he can achieve is still enough to look forward to.
Real Madrid is already waiting for the final venue. Next, it depends on who can become Real Madrid's opponent in the final between Southampton and Atletico Madrid.
For Southampton, their results this season have been brilliant enough. After all, after failing to return from the Champions League group stage last season, this season can reach the semi-finals of the Champions League in one go, which in itself is enough to make people Feel amazed.
The dark horses of this season's Champions League are nothing more than Southampton and Atletico Madrid. They both eliminated two traditional strong teams and broke into the Champions League semi-finals. From this perspective, there is no doubt about the gold content of their results.
Now, it depends on who can be the darkest dark horse.
"Players from both sides have already played! Judging from the starting lineup, both sides have come up with all their main players! The home team Southampton's starting lineup is still the four-three-three they are used to. Goalkeeper Keylor Navas, defender Klein, Luke Shaw , Otamendi, Fonte, midfielder Casemiro, Mkhitaryan, De Bruyne, striker Ronaldo, Suarez, Lukaku! This is their most commonly used starting lineup this season! And Ma Jing sent a four-four-two lineup. The goalkeeper was the Belgian goalkeeper Courtois on loan from Chelsea, the two full-backs Juanfran and Felipe, the central defender Godin and Miranda partnered, and the midfielder Koke, Thiago and Mario Suarez are the three midfielders, Turan is the midfielder, and the forwards are Diego Costa and Adrian!"
"Both sides have a top scorer. Southampton's is Suarez. He has scored 34 goals in the Premier League so far and nine goals in the Champions League! It is only a little worse than Ronaldo. Atletico Madrid's super shooter is Diego Costa. This Brazilian who has been naturalized in Spain has had a big explosion this season. He has now scored 27 in La Liga. Ball, second only to Messi and Ronaldo, scored seven goals in the Champions League, ranking fifth in the current Champions League scorer list, above him are Messi who scored eight goals, and Suarez who scored nine goals Ibrahimovic, who scored [-] goals, and Ronaldo, who scored [-] goals! These two can be said to be the best shooters other than Melo this season! Although Ibrahimovic is also very good, but Ligue [-] After all, the influence is still a bit worse..."
"And Ibrahimovic has scored 26 goals in the league so far." The guest next to him added.
"And the second ranked player scored ten fewer goals than him." The commentator quickly followed up.
Then they both laughed at the same time.
Ibrahimovic who got shot for no reason: ...
The players on the field were scattered on both sides, and Southampton won the kick-off in this game.
They will be at home against Atletico Madrid, which can be called the best defense this season.
This is a better team than Chelsea defensively.
Of course it won't be an easy opponent.
"Now it's our home court, we won't be conservative, no one can compare to us when it comes to scoring goals." Ji Ya said when shaking hands with Simeone.
"Although we are not very good at offense, we are not bad, especially our defense is better, so we don't suffer from confrontation." Simeone said with a smile.
Ji Ya nodded, and the words have already been released, so there is no need to say anything more, just compare and compare.
When the two head coaches returned to their positions, as the referee blew his whistle, the Southampton fans in the stands burst into cheers, and the game officially began!
Southampton took the lead, Lukaku kicked the ball to Suarez, and Suarez sent it back.
Southampton did not play any fast break after the opening, but began to pass back and forth in the midfield, looking for opportunities.
Atletico Madrid did not rush up and down aggressively, but ran in the midfield, waiting for Southampton to attack.
"Well, their defense is indeed divided into two parts, the front and the back, and they will only press wildly in the frontcourt and backcourt, instead of wasting opportunities in the midfield." Ji Ya thought silently in his heart.
Atletico Madrid's strong defense this season lies in this. The advantage of splitting the press is that they will not give all their strength in the frontcourt or backcourt. Often there is only nine to 10 minutes of physical fitness. If this limit is exceeded, the performance of the players will drop rapidly.
Of course, Ji Ya can't count on not conceding a goal in 10 minutes of this game... Southampton's defense is not that good.
Since the defense is inferior to the opponent, of course it can only be compared to the offense. When the offense of both sides can continuously score goals, Atletico Madrid's defensive advantage... is actually nothing.
This is Ji Ya's request and arrangement for this game.
He doesn't know what Simeone is going to do in this game, but it is enough to use offense and let the initiative of this game be in his own hands.
