The comments made by football critics are often correct.
At least they were right about Noriya's intentions for this rotation.
Although the performance of the substitutes as a whole is still lacking, Wigan Athletic is not a strong team as a whole, and physical fitness is still individual. Southampton's substitutes are not afraid at all.
If you want to defeat the strong with the weak, you often need to have at least one advantage in physical fitness or mentality, and then luck. But now, whether it is physical fitness or mentality, Wigan Athletic has no advantage, so it can only count on ethereal luck.
But luck is the most unreliable.
This final, judging from the scene, was not exciting.
There was a lot of running and confrontation between the two sides in the midfield, and there were also a lot of mistakes. There were not many shots, and there were not many exciting shots. The two sides just kept fighting and making mistakes...
Southampton still had an advantage in the number of shots, but several shots were blocked by the opponent's defenders one after another with their bodies. Wigan Athletic was really working hard at this time.
The score in the first half was zero to zero. After the second half, the scene did not change essentially. It was still a constant struggle and a lot of mistakes.
Both sides seem to be waiting for an opportunity.
And this opportunity appeared in the 70th minute.
Wigan Athletic's midfielder Gomez saw Nolito taking the ball and was about to make a one-man attack. In desperation, he tackled Nolito, received a second yellow card, and was sent off!
Ji Ya immediately changed three people!
Benteke, Mkhitaryan and Willian play at the same time!
Wigan Athletic, who were short of one player, had almost lost their fighting spirit. In the remaining ten minutes of the game, they were beaten hard by Southampton in their own half. In the 87th minute of the game,
, Mkhitaryan took the corner kick, and Chambers assisted with a header and hit the goal. The opponent's goalkeeper, who made six key saves in the whole game, was beyond his reach. One to zero, Southampton completed the absolute victory at the last moment.
kill!
"Another championship! League Cup, League One, FA Cup! Southampton has created history! They are the first team to win three top honors in England at the same time in one season! Manchester United wins the Triple Crown
When Liverpool won the quintuple crown, they did not win the League Cup! Southampton was the first Premier League team to win the domestic treble!"
Amid the shouts of the commentator, Southampton fans continued to celebrate. Anyway, they have no worries now. With three championships in hand, it seems that Southampton can win the unprecedented three consecutive Europa League titles.
It's not a very important thing...
Anyway, this season has been extremely successful!
Noriya shook hands with the opponent's head coach. He regretted that he had defeated his opponent. After all, the dominance of wealthy teams is getting stronger and stronger. It is actually very difficult for weak teams to make a breakthrough in the cup...
As a result, Southampton first defeated the fourth-tier team Bradford in the League Cup final this season, and then defeated the relegated team Wigan Athletic in the FA Cup final, making Noriya feel as if he had been given a hand by the poor.
It's like robbing money.
But this is just thinking about it, the championship depends entirely on your own strength!
There is nothing to feel sorry for others.
The FA Cup final is on May 16th, and the Europa League final is on May 23rd.
Noriya and his team came to Amsterdam four days in advance. The final was held at the Amsterdam Arena, home of Ajax. A large number of Southampton fans and Chelsea fans also came here. For Benitez,
, he put out the fire in the middle of this season, and his results were not bad. He led Chelsea to maintain the fourth position in the league, and reached the final of the Europa League...
Of course, Real Madrid announced two days ago that Mourinho will leave the team after the end of the season, which also made Benitez a little unhappy...
More experienced fans know that Master Bei is not convinced by Magic Bird.
The two started fighting each other in the Premier League. Later, they left the Premier League one after another, and Benitez went to Inter Milan to replace Mourinho. The result was such a mess that he almost had no place to coach.
, which is also a serious loss of vitality.
Now that Mourinho is about to be dismissed from Real Madrid's position, Benitez suddenly feels that he is in a bit of danger.
Although whether he wins the championship or not does not have a big impact, Benitez still wants to use a victory to let everyone know that if he is replaced by Mourinho next, it will not be because he is not good, but because of Chelsea Club
Acting unfairly!
However, what makes Benitez depressed is that Hazard and Terry missed the game due to injuries, which also had a great impact on Chelsea's overall performance.
Fortunately, Torres has performed well recently. Since Benitez took over this season, Torres has begun to repay his head coach at Liverpool with good performances. This season, he has scored 21 goals, including in various cup competitions.
He has scored 14 goals, and he has scored five goals in the last five Europa League games, which is an important factor for Chelsea to reach the final.
To put it bluntly, a team needs someone to score goals. Southampton's failure to compete for the league title last season had a lot to do with the lack of a shooter who can bring a lot of goals.
"The Premier League civil war between Southampton and Chelsea is about to begin! Last season they were the champions of the Europa League and the Champions League. This season they met in the European Super Cup. At that time, Southampton beat Chelsea four to one!
However, in the league, the two sides had a draw, each winning one game. However, in the FA Cup and League Cup, Southampton eliminated Chelsea... From this perspective, Southampton was inferior to Chelsea in the cup.
Maintaining a complete victory! This is also one of their psychological advantages!"
"Chelsea finished fourth in the Premier League this season. Benitez did a good job, but it is far behind compared with Noriya. Not only did Noriya lead Southampton to the first league championship in history, but he also won
To the honor of England's first domestic treble! He seems to be a head coach who was born specifically to create records! From this perspective, Noriya once again created history and won the unprecedented Europa League treble.
The results don’t seem to surprise anyone!”
Before the game started, various media outlets in England began to build momentum. They all felt that Southampton had an advantage. This seemed to be stimulating everyone at Chelsea.
After all, Chelsea has quite a few top players!
"No matter what they say, we have to win this game, everyone should know this!" Noriya said in the last training.
The players responded with a bang.
The main players did not participate in the FA Cup final, and now they are holding their breath.
