Send away the old world and we will become the new world.
I have to say that words like this can always inspire the greatest fighting spirit of the players.
After winning the last round of Southampton's game, they got good news, that is, Chelsea lost. They lost to Aston Villa away from home, which caused them to slip to third place. Southampton once again
Back to the first position, one point ahead of Manchester City, two points ahead of Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal are both 63 points, and are already five points behind Southampton.
There are only eight rounds left in the league. Under such circumstances, the competition will of course become more intense.
Southampton and Chelsea still have to play in the Champions League. In this way, Manchester City, which was eliminated in the Champions League, can actually have an advantage.
"The two legs of the Champions League quarter-finals are in early April. We have two rounds of league games to play before that. Everyone knows what we are going to do, right?" Noriya said in the locker room.
"Winning streak! Winning streak! Winning streak!" The players shouted while waving their fists.
"That's right, it's a winning streak. We have lost a lot of points that we shouldn't have lost, and now it's time to get them back!"
In the 31st round, Southampton challenged Tottenham away from home. In this round, Chelsea will fight against Arsenal.
In the 32nd round, Southampton faced Newcastle United at home, and in this round, Manchester City and Arsenal will fight against each other.
If they are lucky, as long as they can win consecutively, they may be able to expand their lead.
This opportunity cannot be missed.
These two games are played once a week, so there is no problem with physical fitness at all.
Then they will play in the Champions League.
Noriya led the team and flew to London. Southampton was not far from London, so there was no such thing as a long journey.
Tottenham's recent performance has not been great. They are currently ranked seventh and have not improved much after the coaching change. Walker was unable to play in this game, which also caused Sherwood to lose a good full-back.
Under such circumstances, they still did not use the Brazilian Paulinho in the midfield, and did not use the young Kane on the front line. Instead, they let some players who were average in Kiya's opinion, and their performance declined, which is natural.
Something happened.
However, on their home court, their fighting power and desire to fight are still very high.
After all, for them, it doesn't matter if they can't make the top four. It would be too embarrassing if they even lose their qualification for the Europa League.
After all, they also invested hundreds of millions of pounds this summer, although most of it was money exchanged by Bell...
From the beginning of the game, the two sides started fighting. Tottenham's midfielder was still very capable of running, including the technical Eriksen and others.
After constant running and confrontation, in the 19th minute of the game, Navas received Otamendi's back pass and kicked the ball towards the opponent's half. The ball flew quite far, and Tottenham's center
Defender Norton wanted to take off and head the ball back, but after he took off, he was unable to touch the ball...
The ball flew past his scalp. Lukaku, who came in at high speed, strode to catch up with the ball. Danny Rose was already a step too late to return to defense at this time. Lukaku dribbled the ball into the penalty area and faced the attack.
Lloris easily pushed a far corner!
Southampton scores first!
Teammates began to congratulate Navas one after another. This was his assist...
This long pass assist also made Navas the fourth Premier League goalkeeper to contribute assists this season.
After taking the lead, Southampton began to play more confidently, and Tottenham's defense also began to bear greater pressure.
Poor Norton's performance has become a microcosm of Tottenham's defensive performance...
Ten minutes later, he made another mistake. Ronaldo passed the ball into the penalty area, but he made a mistake in clearing the ball. The ball flew right in front of Suarez. Of course, Suarez would not miss this opportunity and directly met the ball.
It was a volley, and the ball hit the dead center of the goal!
Two to zero, in less than thirty minutes, Southampton was already leading by two goals!
Sherwood covered his face on the sidelines. He didn't know what to do at this time. Tottenham's defense this season is simply a team of defenders. They make mistakes one after another. Norton's two mistakes have already
This is the fifteenth and sixteenth time Tottenham has conceded goals due to mistakes this season!
Under such circumstances, even if Tottenham's offense is strong, it will be greatly affected!
In the 34th minute, Tottenham recovered a point. Eriksen, who was advancing forward, found an opportunity in the penalty area and grabbed a shot from the small penalty area before Casemiro made a clearance. The ball quickly entered the net. To this
Navas was unable to save the shot from close range.
However, before the end of the first half, Southampton scored another goal. Suarez forced a breakthrough after receiving a pass from Lukaku in the penalty area, and then cleverly distributed the ball to the front of the penalty area. De Bruyne followed up.
Stopped the ball and shot directly, scoring Southampton's third goal!
The result of a 3-1 lead in the first half allowed Southampton to play more relaxedly in the second half.
Tottenham's defense continued to make mistakes under Southampton's continued impact in the second half.
Luke Shaw completed his sixth assist of the season in the second half. Luke Shaw has performed very well since becoming the main force this season. His speed, impact and bold passing and shooting ability make him very eye-catching.
, eighteen-year-old Luke Shaw has become one of the best left backs in the Premier League!
Such performance is certainly worth looking forward to.
The beneficiary of Luke Shaw's assist this time was Suarez. Through running, Suarez received Luke Shaw's pass at the back point, and then easily scored the ball into the dead corner of the goal, four to one.
Suarez scored twice again.
What is very interesting is that Suarez has scored a lot of goals this season and is extremely efficient, but at most he has scored twice and has never completed a hat trick.
The same goes for this game.
In the end, the score of the game was locked at 5 to 2. Coutinho, who came on as a substitute, scored the fifth goal, and Eriksen scored twice, saving face for Tottenham. Southampton won
Victory and continued to advance at the top of the standings.
In several other games, strong teams won one after another. Among them, Chelsea swept Arsenal with an astonishing 6-0, Manchester City defeated Fulham 5-0, and Liverpool defeated Cardiff City 6-3 away from home. Before the Premier League
Several teams scored more exaggerated goals than the last.
From this perspective, the current strength of the Premier League still seems to be very different, especially Arsenal. Although they have very good results, their consecutive defeats seem to prove that their background is not really special.
outstanding.
Although Liverpool's points are not very high, it is surprising enough that they can score so many goals.
