After a 15-minute break, the two sides returned to the playing field.
But in the second half, there was no change in the tactics against both sides.
Bielsa's team had the advantage in the first half, so naturally there is no reason to adjust.
But it is strange that Emery's team hasn't adjusted.
There is no change in tactics, and the situation in the first half naturally continued.
Southampton continues to firmly control the ball and the rhythm.
But as the game progressed, Bielsa's midfield adjustment gradually became apparent.
The left and mid lanes played alive in the first half, but the right lane was boring.
In the second half, Bielsa clearly and consciously asked Carvajal to step in.
Valencia’s left is Piati, but this player prefers to run to the center.
Therefore, every time when Southampton switches from defensive to offensive, Carvajal's side is empty and no one is defending.
In this way, Carvajal became the most eye-catching star in the second half.
The Spanish right-back dribbled the ball into Valencia's half on the right again and again, creating threats again and again.
First in the 76th minute, after one time, with the cooperation of James Rodriguez who pulled to the side, he took the ball into the penalty area and picked the middle.
Ibrahimovic jumped high in the penalty area, crushing Victor Ruiz, headed the goal, four to one!
The Swedish center also used this ball to perform a hat trick!
followed closely. In the 83rd minute, Carvajal dribbled the ball from the right and passed it straight to James Rodriguez.
The Colombian player made a left foot pass to the penalty area, but was blocked by Victor Ruiz.
Carvajal followed up and took the ball with his right foot in the penalty area. After looking around the situation, his right foot passed the front left of the penalty area.
Stroman inserted afterwards, with a heavy volley with his left foot, and once again penetrated Valencia's goal, five to one!
This is also the last goal of the entire game!
The entire Mestalla stadium was completely conquered by Southampton!
When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Southampton players unscrupulously celebrated the victory on the court, while the fans were in the stands, singing and cheering!
Five to one!
The total score is six to two!
Southampton defeated Valencia away and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals of the Europa League!
"YES! Long live!"
As soon as Yang Huan heard the whistle at the end of the game, he jumped up from his seat excitedly and clenched his fists to celebrate.
Who would have thought that Southampton could slaughter Valencia with five goals away?
Who would have thought that when Manchester City and Manchester United were eliminated, Southampton reversed Valencia and successfully advanced to the quarterfinals of the Europa League?
is too strong, is there anything?
From now on, who would dare to say that Southampton is not strong?
Yang Huan exhaled heavily, turned around, and looked at Manuel Llorente with an awkward look.
"Thank you, Mr. Llorente!" Yang Huan walked over with a smile, reaching out his hand from a distance.
"It's really a brilliant game, isn't it?"
Manuel Llorente was so angry in his heart.
However, he is not mad at Yang Huan, but at his own players.
Ah, sitting in your own home court, you can still lose like this?
Is it fair? Is there any professional cāo guard?
"The game was really exciting, but it turned out to be a pity!" Manuel Llorente said with a wry smile.
Lost the game by a big score like 5 to 1. He really can't justify his team anymore. He can only say that he is not as skilled as the others. How else would he lose so many goals?
This Southampton is indeed the No. 1 demon team in Europe!
Manuel Llorente was full of gloomy thoughts.
I have been in professional football in Europe for so many years. I have seen so many dark horses, but there has never been a team so dark as theirs.
A second-level league team, no matter how strong it is, it is also limited!
But they are totally different!
Since the beginning of the League One, the Premier League giants have been repeatedly defeated, and when it comes to the English Champions League, it has become even more intensified, and they have come to the European arena!
It seems that with time, this team is afraid that it will go against the sky!
The team won the ball this time, and Yang Huan's mood is naturally very different.
People say that the result is a pity, this is correct.
If you want to care about such a thing with others, it’s too shameful, isn’t it?
This winner must have the demeanor of a winner!
So, Master Huan smiled directly, greeted Zhuang Ziqing, and went straight to the court below.
Southampton players, under the leadership of captain Neuer, specially came under the stands where the Southampton fans are.
In this game, more than 15,000 Saints fans came to the scene.
Pre-match leader Matthew Le Tissier suggested that regardless of the outcome of the game, the fans must be thanked.
Now, winning the game is undoubtedly the best reward for all the fans who came to the away game with the team.
"Good job, saint!"
"Ibrahimovic, you are great!"
"We must win the championship!"
"Champion, we want champions!"
"Yes, we want champions!"
"Saint, champion!"
The fans in the stands were shouting frantically.
In the 100-year history of Southampton clubs, apart from an FA Cup, there has not been any significant champion.
But after Yang Huan took over the team, he won the second FA Cup in the first year. In the second year, he won the League Cup. Now he has performed well in the European arena. The fans naturally hope the team can go further. Have something to do.
Which fan does not want the team he supports to make a big game?
More and more Saints fans chanted the slogan of the championship in the stands!
They are appealing to the fans of Southampton, don’t make it into the quarterfinals and you are satisfied, and you must take a longer view!
want to win!
When all the fans in the stands were shouting the champion in unison, Yang Huan walked out of the player channel.
He saw the players hesitate, and immediately smiled and walked forward.
"It's a man, just promise them!"
The players all looked over at once.
"Master Huan!"
Then, I don’t know if it was Ibrahimovic or Neuer. Anyway, someone took the lead and shouted directly at the fans in the stands, "You wait!"
"Yes, wait, we will do our best to win the championship!"
"Europa League, we are about to make a decision in Southampton!"
The roar of the players reached the stands and immediately triggered the choppy cheers of countless Saints fans in the stands. The momentum seemed to collapse the Mestalla Stadium!
"Master Huan!"
After the players bid farewell to the fans, they walked to the player channel and gathered around Yang Huan and Zhuang Ziqing.
"Good performance!" Yang Huan laughed and praised.
"The process is a bit dangerous!"
As a fan, who doesn't want the team to be smooth sailing, playing with each other from start to finish?
When everyone heard it, they all laughed.
won the ball, no one will care about what happened to the first loss.
Ko Varane knew it well.
"Master Huan, I..."
Yang Huan waved his hand, "Okay, let's not popular in Southampton, just remember the lesson, right?"
"Yes!" The players all agreed with a smile.
Varane has been in the team for two years, knowing the atmosphere and rules of the team, I won't say much.
just remembered this lesson in my heart.
The same mistake, next time he must not make it again!
"You guys have a long face this time. Just now, when I went downstairs for a while, many people called me or texted me. The FA chairperson and the Premier League CEO both called me personally and praised you for your good work. !"
The players were also amused.
Both the FA and the Premier League have called. This is so shameful!
"This is an affirmation, but also an expectation, but also a pressure."
After listening, everyone nodded.
Chelsea and Arsenal were eliminated, Manchester City and Manchester United were eliminated, and even Birmingham, Fulham and other teams were also eliminated.
Now, in the entire European arena, there is only Southampton in the English team!
This is an honor and a pressure.
"Every one of you must remember that we in Southampton, under any circumstances, should not be looked down upon!"
"Remember!" The players all answered in unison.
Yang Huan laughed, "It's past ten o'clock, are you hungry?"
"Hungry!" Ibrahimovic clutched his stomach, pretending to be weird.
"If I wasn't too hungry, I could at least score three more goals!"
When everyone heard it, they burst into laughter again.
This boy has performed a hat trick, and three more?
Are you playing basketball? Still playing football?
"Then, go back to the hotel, delicious and delicious, all I treat!"
At this time, the team leader Matthew Le Tissier listened and couldn't help but leaned forward with a bitter expression.
"But, Master Huan, the plane is waiting for no one!"
All the players listened to it, and they felt that they were all booked.
Kehuan Young Master is not happy.
"Who said that the plane is not waiting for people?"
"Hey, I'm still weird. There are still planes waiting for no one else these days? If we don't get on the plane, can it fly back by itself?"
"Besides, the players play hard and it is not easy to win. Now that you have time, you must taste the Spanish food and wine. If you don't have enough food and drink enough, you can go back. Is it reasonable?"
"It really doesn't work, so I wrapped the whole plane. When do we want to go back, when do we want to go back, can we manage it?"
Yang Huan said so proudly, the players all immediately followed suit.
"Master Huan, awesome!"
"Yes, Matthew, let's go when you are full and drink!"
"That's right, just wrap it up, I don't want to wait, big deal, let's run back!"
"Wow, jogging? When you get to the English Channel, are you going to swim there?"
"Wow, this is a great suggestion, but we still have a game on the weekend, how to make it?"
"The top second team, the team in the English championship, killed them every minute!"
"Well said, our second team is also quite strong!"
Yang Huan raised his hand, and everyone suddenly fell silent.
"Hurry up, take a shower and change clothes, let's eat, drink and have fun!"
"it is good!"
The players suddenly disappearedMatthew Le Tissier looked at the players with a wry smile, he couldn't stop him at all.
"Master Huan, this..."
Yang Huan smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "Matthew, this is human nature, work and rest."
Matthew? Letissiere listened and couldn't say anything.
After such a hard game, it is also a good thing to let the players rest and relax.
"Furthermore, what kind of professional morality and morality is not a matter of discipline or the arrangement of the club, but the players themselves. People with professional morality and morality, even if they go the night before the game. In a nightclub party, he can still adjust his state and body."
"A person who has no professional morality, even if you tie him to the training base all the time, he is still in a downturn, on the court, and still perfunctory, this is human nature!"
Matthew Le Tissier really couldn't refute it.
Even aftertaste, it seems really interesting.
Only Zhuang Ziqing standing beside Yang Huan.
She is getting to know her fiance more and more.
In short, it’s a full stomach crook!
