This long shot is undoubtedly a world wave.
Let Cancelo fight by himself, he may not be able to fight.
So in such a situation, you can't take chances.
Ji Ya immediately used up the last substitution spot.
Rudiger came on and replaced Vardy.
Kanter returned to the midfield position again, strengthening the sweep of the midfield, and the Southampton players began to retreat gradually, preparing to defend and counterattack.
Southampton retreated to defend. This was originally an opportunity for Barcelona to attack. However, looking at Lukaku and Du Yue who are eyeing the tiger, these two players with excellent speed and technology are in the front. Then press the attack...
At this time, Enrique was a little timid.
He started commanding more possession and then hoping to attack without giving Southampton a chance to counter-attack...
This is a bit taken for granted. The most difficult thing in the world is not having both.
Therefore, in the last 10 minutes of the game, neither side was able to create any good opportunities. They were constantly looking for opportunities on the court, but they always failed to find opportunities.
In the end, when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the fans of both sides were a little dissatisfied.
Three to two, Southampton defeated Barcelona at home, but they did not establish a big advantage, allowing Barcelona to score two away goals, and Barcelona fans felt that they were capable of winning away. It's a pity that I couldn't launch too many attacks at the last moment...
"In this game, both sides showed top form, so it's normal to be a little dissatisfied with the result... Southampton's defense exposed some problems, and Barcelona also had a big problem in defense. Loopholes, the two sides created many more opportunities than the score, in the second round of the game, it seems that the ability of both sides to seize opportunities will determine everything."
After the game, the media commented on the game in this way. Both sides showed a high level, but neither seemed very satisfactory.
From this perspective, the performance of both sides is still very good.
"I'm very happy with the game, the players played well, it seemed a bit of luck that we scored two goals in this game, but we also have to look at the chances we missed... This is football, maybe some chances that are not chances get It’s normal for some better chances to score but not to score...the second round? There’s still a long time for the second round, let’s talk about it then.” Kiya said after the match express.
Enrique also expressed his satisfaction with this game. After all, the decisive battle can be played at Camp Nou, which is a good result in itself.
The second round of the game will start in three weeks, and indeed, Mr. Don't need to think about it too much.
While the Southampton fans celebrated their victory, they began to focus on the FA Cup and the league.
After all, Southampton has a great advantage in the league now, even if they lose a little point, there is no problem.
After the game against Barcelona, Southampton soon ushered in Chelsea at home.
Chelsea's performance this season is mediocre. After Mourinho dismissed get out of get out of class before, the old coach Hiddink came to fight the fire again-he has basically become a professional firefighter for Chelsea. Once Chelsea's head coach gets out of get out of get out of class in the middle of the season, Abramovich will invite him to coach. For a few months, stabilize the mood of the team...
This can be regarded as a scene in world football.
In this game, Ji Ya sent a lot of substitutes, Vardy scored first, Xiaofa equalized the score, Ivanovic overtook the score, and Southampton relied on Rudiger's header to equalize the score , Southampton drew Chelsea two to two at home, no one cares about this draw, after all, their current advantage is big enough.
In the eighth round of No.20 in the middle of the week, Southampton challenged Bournemouth in an away game. Ji Ya once again made a substantial rotation, giving everyone a chance to play, but Bournemouth, which is ranked low, still failed to resist Southamp Although they scored two goals in the game, the goals of Du Yue, Lukaku and Coutinho still allowed Southampton to win the game [-]-[-] away.
In the case of a relaxed state of mind, they performed better.
The schedule during this period is very intensive, especially in the case of the FA Cup, which is basically a double match a week until the second round of the Champions League knockout round. Under such circumstances, it is necessary to use a lot of rotation , after all, once a week, the performance of the main players will obviously be much better.
In the ninth round of No.20 on the weekend, Southampton played away with the relegation team Sunderland 30-[-]. In the No.[-] round of the week, Southampton beat Stoke City [-]-[-] at home.
After 79 rounds, Southampton's points have quietly risen to [-] points. Originally, with this rhythm of tying a game and winning a game, it was still a bit easy for opponents to chase points. However, no one expected that other strong teams began to take turns. hip pull...
In the last seven rounds of the league, Southampton has four wins and three draws. This is not a very good performance for a strong team. In the end, they expanded their lead by one point.
Now ranked second is Tottenham with 58 points.
Next are Arsenal with 55 points, Manchester City with 52 points, Manchester United with 48 points, and Tottenham with [-] points.
There are only eight rounds left in the league, that is to say, Arsenal theoretically only have a chance to tie Southampton's points, and the only one who can theoretically win the championship is Tottenham.
Now Southampton's biggest suspense is only two left.
Who is the remaining three Champions League places, and who is the three relegation indicators.
Southampton can now finally fully focus on the FA Cup and the Champions League.
Ever since, in the sixth round of the FA Cup on the weekend, although Ji Ya did not send all the main players, he also sent most of the main players.
Although they drew a good draw in this round, they played an away game against the second-tier team Reading.
However, the draw for the quarter-finals of the FA Cup this time can be described as strong and weak. Southampton met Reading, Chelsea met Everton, Arsenal faced Watford, and Manchester United faced West Ham. For Mu United, logically speaking, there should be no problem for a strong team to win.
In the difficult resistance of Reading, Southampton also won the victory quite difficult. Their final score was [-] to [-]. Coutinho scored and Du Yue scored the lore goal.
Seeing this result, the Southampton fans were still a little dissatisfied, feeling that the game was too difficult.
However, when they saw the results of other competitions, they also had to lament that this is a worse world...

Arsenal lost [-]-[-] at home to Watford.
Manchester United and West Ham are tied and are about to enter the play-offs.
