The second half of the game continued without any problems to everyone.
The two sides are still constantly attacking each other, and there are often wonderful shots. The attackers of both sides have created many offensive opportunities, tormenting the opponent's defense...
In the 59th minute of the game, the entire Schalke Stadium began to fall into a huge noise - after receiving Farfan's pass, Raul planned to pass the ball to the penalty area at the front
At the feet of Huntelaar, who was rushing to defend, Matuidi blocked it with his body. However, the ball returned to Raul. Raul did not think about it and volleyed directly into the falling ball!
No one expected that he would volley from this position. The ball drew an arc in the air and then plunged into the dead center of the goal!
Faced with this wonderful kick, Navas could only turn his head and watch the ball bouncing in the goal...
Schalke fans were shouting crazily. They liked this legend so much that he joined the team from Real Madrid at an old age. Although he was already quite old when he came, Raul used his humility, hard work and
Diligence has infected everyone. As a newly joined player, he can bring the captain's armband not only because of his age.
This is Raul's 76th goal in European competitions, and he continues to live up to his legend.
Noriya also clapped his hands twice, showing his respect for the legendary player.
However, he did not make any adjustments. In his opinion, this was just an accident, because Southampton's offense was also very threatening.
At the same time, in such a confrontation, the Southampton players, who had been prepared in advance, used up much less physical energy than their opponents.
It still seems evenly matched now, but in the next period of time, it will be Southampton's turn to take advantage!
This is also true.
And seeing Raul performing so well, there was one person in the Southampton team who was very unconvinced...
That is Klose.
Klose is a late bloomer. Although he is only one year younger than Raul, when Raul became the captain of Real Madrid, he was just an amateur player. When he played in the World Cup for the first time at the age of 24, he was still called
People thought he was a rookie and young player. At that time, the 25-year-old Raul was already playing in the World Cup for the second time.
But his performance in the national team is much better than Raul's. The goals scored in the 14 World Cups so far are not comparable to Raul's.
The club's performance is of course Raul's better.
Under such circumstances, seeing Raul's outstanding performance, Klose will naturally not be willing to lag behind others.
He continued to run on the court, looking for opportunities.
He is actually very familiar with Schalke 04.
After all, he has played in the Bundesliga for the past ten years.
Although Schalke's defenders are young, he has also played against them and is familiar with their level and movement.
Klose retreated to get the ball, and then passed the ball to Vidal who came up to meet him. Vidal shot directly from a long distance, but Hildebrand saved it from the bottom line and took a corner kick.
William ran over to take the corner kick. As a center forward, Klose should of course be the focus of attention.
However, the experience of veterans can make them become very inconspicuous people on the court...
William's corner kick went to the front spot. When Klose took off from the front spot, there was no one around him to defend him!
Klose took off easily, met the falling ball, and hit the goal with a textbook head-flick!
The ball flew from the front point into the blind spot of the goal! Hildebrand couldn't react at all!
"The goal is scored! Klose! This is the thirteenth goal he has scored for Southampton in various competitions this season! Although this number is not a lot, considering that he has not played many appearances, it is enough.
It proves his level...Bringing in Klose is really worth it for Southampton!"
After scoring, Klose also opened his arms and ran out. The Schalke stadium became silent. Schalke fans did not want to see this scene...
The current score is 2-2, which is not a good thing for Schalke, who is playing at home.
They need more goals to reverse the situation on the field.
However, after the game restarted, Schalke, who was supposed to launch a fierce attack, began to slow down...
Their physical fitness finally began to have problems.
This is normal. Generally speaking, physical energy is allocated in games. Players can allocate their physical energy very well when their goals are determined. However, when tactics arise unexpectedly, they will consume more energy unknowingly.
of physical fitness.
Stevens finally reacted at this time. He changed three people in a row, but still could not save the passive situation.
Southampton suppressed Schalke 04 and continued to attack. Their only problem now is to see when they can score.
Southampton's players did not keep Noriya waiting too long.
Klose equalized the score in the 71st minute. After more than ten minutes of fierce attack, in the 81st minute of the game, Ronaldo shook off the defensive defender on the right side of the penalty area, and then quickly took a shot. The ball was passed by Hill.
De Blanc barely made the save, but Klose's movement allowed him to seize the opportunity again and easily scored with a follow-up shot!
"Klose also scored twice! Southampton overtook the score! Schalke's situation is very difficult now!"
In the shouts of the commentator, Southampton had no intention of stopping at this time. After finally gaining a comprehensive lead, of course they must try to expand the score as much as possible!
They continued to attack fiercely, and Noriya replaced Klose, who scored twice, with Giroud. At this time, they were about to attack, and Klose's physical fitness had almost declined.
"Well done! I'll have to rely on you next." Ji Ya patted Klose on the shoulder.
Klose smiled. He was very eager to win the Europa League. After all, he had won the honorary Grand Slam in Germany, but he had not yet won a single championship in the European arena.
The closest thing was the 2009-10 season, when he reached the final with Bayern, but lost to Inter Milan, who later won the championship.
The Europa League looks average, but it is also a serious European champion!
Next, Klose sat on the bench and watched Southampton launch waves of attacks.
After Giroud came on as a substitute, he quickly seized an opportunity.
At the end of the game, Ronaldo forced a breakthrough from the wing and passed the ball into the penalty area. Giroud forced the opponent's defender to attack the goal with his head and headed the ball into the dead center of the goal!
Four to two, Southampton completely established the victory!
The Southampton team started celebrating wildly. They were able to win two goals in the away game and scored four away goals. With such a huge advantage, it would not be easy for them to be eliminated!
