In this game, Southampton did have a hearty victory in the end.
In the second half of the game, Lambert scored twice, and with the assist from full-back Otsmobo, Southampton beat their opponents 4-0 and finally reduced their points to zero...
After eight rounds of competition, the points that were deducted were evened.
Southampton fans are indeed a little bit amazed.
This hearty victory also made them feel that their team was really on the right track this time.
After all, compared with the previous wins that were always on thin ice, this big win can certainly bring more confidence to the fans!
"We have been making progress... English League One is also a league that is quite unfamiliar to us, but we are finally beginning to adapt to them. Yes, our offense has begun to have a better understanding than before, which is very important.
One thing. I understand what our mission is this season, and what we have to do next is to achieve results that satisfy the fans this season!"
Noriya was full of confidence at the post-match press conference. Although many non-local reporters felt that Noriya was so confident just after passing the leveling hurdle, local reporters still felt that Southampton now is not that good.
It is indeed different!
Originally, they lacked an effective offensive method. Now that they have it, the pressure on the defensive side will be greater, and they will lose sight of one thing.
Southampton's offense is fine, so their next results will be guaranteed.
And in terms of the team's condition, the previous performance has been poor, and now it's time to get better!
"The next game is the third round of the League Cup, and the opponent is another Premier League team, Sunderland. Will Southampton still strive to win?" a local reporter asked.
"Of course, Southampton should be a Premier League team, there is no doubt about this. Since for various reasons, we have come to the English League to play games, and we are temporarily unable to let the fans feel the feeling of playing in the Premier League, then when we encounter the Premier League
When we are in the team, we will definitely perform better." Ji Ya replied.
The local Southampton reporters in the audience immediately burst into cheers. Noriya's words seemed to speak to their hearts - What's wrong, we are the team that should be in the top league, Sunderland? They may not have performed well in the Premier League.
It's good to have us.
It has to be said that it is often useful for our ancestors to be generous.
Just like when Southampton was in League One, they always received the most coverage.
Except for Leeds, Charlton and a few other teams that have also had rich ancestors, Southampton's influence is indeed unmatched in English League One!
Sunderland quickly felt this when they came to Southampton.
Although Sunderland have been relegated every year in the past few seasons, they are still a Premier League team. Generally speaking, when they encounter a League One team in a cup match, the fans of those League One teams are not so hopeless as to ask them for autographs.
Yes, but I will definitely look at them with envy, jealousy and hatred...
But Southampton fans will not be like this.
They just looked at the Sunderland players calmly, as if this was just a normal game.
This discovery also made the Sunderland players very unhappy.
Isn’t it just a poor settlement? What’s there!
Although Sunderland is relegated every year, they still have many famous players in their team, such as forward Darren Bent. Although it is difficult for him to go to a wealthy club because of his strength, he has always been a good player in the middle and lower reaches of the team.
Malbranque in the midfield is a regular in the Premier League, Andy Reid, a wide player, is very distinctive, and Anton Ferdinand in the defense is the younger brother of Manchester United national team defender Ferdinand, although he is not as outstanding as his elder brother.
But he can be considered a good central defender.
With such a lineup, they can successfully avoid relegation in the league every year, and then receive a share of tens of millions of pounds in broadcast fees. It is really comfortable.
This is still an era when the top four in the Premier League are monopolized by Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal. Tottenham will only have the opportunity to enter the Champions League this season, and Manchester City has not yet risen. Under such circumstances, a mid-level player like Sunderland
The downstream team is called a team with no ambitions.
However, this kind of team usually performs well in the League Cup. After all, if they can win the League Cup, they will also have the opportunity to participate in the Europa League.
Although the Europa League money is not that much, it is still an important competition, and the ticket price alone is not small.
The League Cup has entered the third round and has already reached the top 32. As a cup competition, the League Cup does not involve many games, so it is also a good time for a breakthrough.
Sunderland started the league well this year, winning three games. Under such circumstances, of course, they hope to perform better in the League Cup.
Their new coach Steve Bruce has certain ambitions and hopes to win his first important coaching honor at Sunderland.
As a player, Steve Bruce has many honors. Three Premier Leagues and three FA Cups are enough to put him at the top of the player honor list. However, although his coaching has always been smooth, he has always coached mid-to-lower teams. This is
The former England national team members were a little dissatisfied.
This year he led the team to a good start. Former head coach Keane left him a good team. If he has a chance to win the league championship this season, his future as a head coach seems to be better.
.
Unfortunately, he met Ji Ya.
At the same time, he was in the light and Noriya was in the dark.
He didn't have much time to study Southampton's game. He only studied the game in which Southampton defeated Birmingham - after all, in theory, the game in which Southampton defeated Birmingham, the Premier League team, was the most worthy of study.
After watching the game, he came to the conclusion that Southampton is actually good, but as long as they don't give the opponent too much space defensively, their offense will be meaningless. At the same time, Southampton is also weak defensively.
You can't do it too surely, as long as you keep launching counterattacks, you will definitely win.
"If we don't give the opponent a chance to defend and counterattack, we will definitely win. Do you understand? Be careful and grind with them slowly. Except for Perry, Walton, Liter and their goalkeepers, the other Southampton
The starting players are all young and they can get frustrated easily," Bruce told his players.
However, at this time, Ji Ya is preparing targeted tactics...
