Southampton won the game almost without a fight. In the second half, Ji Ya asked Mane, De Bruyne and other main players to take a rest, but Paris still failed to score a goal.
After the game, many media criticized Paris' performance, feeling that they had no fighting spirit and seemed unworthy of being in the Champions League quarter-finals, while Southampton's performance greatly praised them, even in
After having a sufficient advantage in the first round, they also performed very strongly in the second round, which is indeed worthy of praise.
Noriya began to pay attention to the opponents below.
Is it Real Madrid or Atletico Madrid.
The second leg of the Madrid derby was played one day later, and the result came out quickly.
Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid 1-0 at home with the help of Hernandez's winning goal and entered the semi-finals of the Champions League.
This is also the second time Southampton faces Real Madrid after the Champions League final last season!
In the other semi-final, Barcelona faced Bayern.
Barcelona also defeated their opponent 1-0 in the second round, winning reliably, while Bayern bloodbathed Porto 6-1 at home and successfully reversed course.
Southampton will first face Real Madrid at home and then on the road. However, what is a bit disadvantageous for Real Madrid is that Southampton has basically given up on the league now, and they are only two points behind Barcelona and still have a chance to hit the league championship. In this case
situation, they are naturally more easily distracted.
Of course, this is not a particularly big difficulty, it is just a game. At this point in the season, which team is not gritting its teeth and persisting.
But Noriya will not give up such a small advantage.
Before the first round of the game, Southampton had two league games to play. In the 34th round, Southampton faced Tottenham at home. In this game, Jiya sent out most of his main players to fight with real guns.
Tottenham came to play, and the two sides ended up tied at 2-2. Southampton's Vardy and Suarez each scored one goal in the game, while Tottenham's Kane scored twice.
There was a draw, and in another game, Chelsea also played Arsenal 0-0, and Southampton missed an opportunity to catch up with the points.
However, Southampton fans no longer care too much about this. Even if they win, they are still four points away. Four points from four rounds is already difficult to catch up with, let alone being distracted from the Champions League game.
After a week of training, Noriya sent out almost all his substitutes to play against Sunderland, who were fighting for relegation, in the away game. In the end, they lost 1 to 2 away from home. Chelsea made persistent efforts and beat Crystal Palace 1 to 0.
Leading Southampton by nine points, with three league rounds left, they have almost won the championship ahead of schedule.
"We have made some mistakes in the league this season, mainly focusing too much on the Champions League... This is a reflection of our inexperience. We have had very good performances, but have lost to our competitors too many times.
, this is a problem. Players’ attention in the league is far less concentrated than in the Champions League. This is my fault. I failed to adjust the players’ condition well... But then we still have the Champions League to fight for. Please everyone.
It’s up to us.”
Noriya said in an interview that Southampton fans quickly came out of the shadow of losing the league championship and began to put all their enthusiasm into the upcoming Champions League!
Real Madrid lost to Southampton in the final last season, and this time it reached the Champions League semi-finals again. Ancelotti knew that only by winning could he continue to coach Real Madrid.
Last season he failed to win the La Liga championship, but he reached the Champions League final, so he continued to be the head coach of Real Madrid. However, it is a bit difficult for him to win the league championship this season. Now Barcelona is dominant in the league.
He is simply too strong. If there is still no breakthrough in the Champions League, his position will definitely be in jeopardy.
However, he has a certain degree of confidence because he believes that his team has become stronger this season.
The two main players poached from Southampton are worth the money.
Ronaldo has become Real Madrid's third most reliable scorer after Ronaldo. Because of his activity, Benzema has not had many opportunities this season, and Navas has performed well and has completely replaced the former captain Card.
The role of Cilias.
Real Madrid's overall strength was not bad to begin with, let alone that it has improved enough now.
Under such circumstances, Ancelotti had more confidence against Southampton.
"It's quite difficult to guess what their main lineup is now," Ji Ya said to Benelli with a smile.
Benelli nodded with deep sympathy. Although Southampton's main lineup is stable this season, it will change a lot if it is rotated. The same is true for Real Madrid because they have a strong main lineup, whether it is a substitute or a substitute.
The main players all performed very well.
Real Madrid currently has three main players available at center back, Pepe, Ramos, and Varane. The midfielder has Kroos, Modric, and Isco. What is even more exaggerated is that in addition to forward Ronaldo, there is also James Ronaldo.
, as well as Benzema, and the little pea Hernandez who completed the last game... Just arranging these forwards is enough to give Ancelotti a headache, and it is enough to make it difficult for their opponents to be sure of them.
’s debut.
"So we can only focus on ourselves... Cristiano Ronaldo will definitely start, and James should also start. In this way, their midfielder is not strong enough. We can continue to control the midfielder.
The ball, organize the offense, press their defense, and then strengthen the breakthrough from the wing. Their full-back Carvajal on the right is very good. Whether it is Marcelo or Coentrao on the left, there are places that can be exploited. Marcel
Luo's defense is average, and Coentrao's offense is relatively weak, so I have a bold idea..." Noriya said.
Benali continued to listen to Ji Ya's words, and then his expression began to become uncertain...
Noriya is going to cause trouble.
But think about it, it is indeed very exciting, and it should be difficult to imagine Real Madrid.
I just don’t know if there will be any problems internally.
"I have already said hello to him, and he will be the main player next time." Ji Ya said.
"Oh, that should be no problem." Benali nodded.
"That's it, it's not like we haven't practiced in the past few days... let's surprise the emperor!" Ji Ya waved his fist.
Benelli nodded vigorously. He felt a little excited after listening to Ji Ya's arrangement. It has to be said that although Ji Ya has many layman's flaws, his unconstrained thinking can make people happy.
He gets better results!
Those traditional coaches sometimes really can't keep up with his thinking.
