Chapter 1003： The plan can't keep up with the changes

Southampton scored four goals in the first half, but after the game restarted in the second half, the performance remained unchanged. .(?.C〔o

However, although Manchester United was defeated like a mountain, Giggs changed two defensive players during the intermission. In addition, the Saints were already a stable victory, slowing down the offensive and strengthening control, so the score was finally locked at four. Than zero.

In the second half, the Saints missed a goal.

But for the indiscriminate bombing in the first half and Messi's hat trick, this game is worth the price!

It turned out that according to the British arrangements, on the third night of the Chinese leader’s visit to the UK, a Chinese-English version of the manor meeting should be held at the Chequers House in Aylesbury, northwest London.

However, he changed his mind temporarily and chose the Undersea Hotel in Southampton as the meeting place.

This is not a manor meeting, but a seabed meeting.

With this meeting, media from all over the world immediately reported and paid attention. The name of the Southampton Undersea Hotel is bound to become world-famous because of this meeting between Chinese and British leaders.

The time of the meeting was arranged after the Saints and Manchester United match.

As the host, Yang Huan participated in the dinner party of the leaders of the two countries, and in the early morning of the next day, the leaders of the two countries left Southampton as a gift, and most of them rushed to Manchester by plane at Southampton Airport.

The visit to the football club in Manchester, which was originally planned, has now been cancelled.

The leaders of China and Britain gathered in Southampton and stayed at the Undersea Hotel. Coupled with the Saints' 4-0 home win over Manchester United and their nine-game winning streak, this meal became the focus of reports by major media around the world the next day.

Such a meeting between Chinese and British leaders has brought Southampton, a seaport city on the south coast of England, into the sight of the world again. All talents have appeared in succession. It turned out that the place where the Titanic was in the past was like this. Fantasy building.

Therefore, for a while, the underwater hotel in Southampton has become a hot spot for tourists from all over the world.

In the English League, the Saints relied on this four-to-zero game to break Manchester United and consolidate their leading position in the English standings with nine consecutive victories. However, thanks to Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester City and Arsenal This round of the game was won, so the Saints' lead did not extend further. ═┝.＜.

Van Gaal's North London team sits at home, with Cristiano Ronaldo's goal, a one-to-zero victory over Liverpool. The Portuguese scored consecutive goals in the English League, unstoppable.

In this year's British scorer list, Cristiano Ronaldo and Suarez are two players who are leading the way, but because Suarez has not scored this round, the Portuguese temporarily ranks first in the scorer list.

However, many media believe that Messi's strong comeback will bring more suspense to the British goalscorer list.

Manchester City beat Bournemouth by 5 to 1 with Abu Bakar’s two shots and one pass and Stirling’s hat trick at their home court. This also allowed Manchester City to overtake Tottenham Hotspur and enter the league. The second place in the standings is second only to Southampton.

Arsenal defeated Watford 3-0 and ranked fourth in the league. La Nicole’s Leicester City team jumped to fifth in the league, Crystal Palace ranked sixth in the league, and Manchester United lost one. After a fiasco, the ranking dropped to seventh in the league.

The Red Army Liverpool's situation is even worse, directly ranked tenth in the league.

Although Chelsea won this round, they are still ranked 16th in the league and are only one step away from the relegation zone.

This also makes many fans ridicule Chelsea, the main goal of this season should be relegation.

Judging from the current British standings, it is completely predictable that it will be difficult for Leicester City and Crystal Palace to maintain this momentum until the end of the season. Their rankings will follow the season. Go deeper and decline.

The strength is not good, the lineup is not strong, this is their biggest weakness.

In the winter break and after dialogue with more strong teams, they will have a weak follow-up.

But in any case, the outstanding performance in the first nine rounds of this season has brought great attention and influence to both teams.

The number one favorite to win this season is still Southampton, but Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur also have a chance, Arsenal and Manchester United are fighting for the top four in the league.

The only regrettable thing is that the two traditional strong teams of Liverpool and Chelsea have fallen, but Leicester City and Crystal Palace, as well as teams like West Ham United, are coming from behind. For England, they are also considered one. A good thing.

At least, add some suspense and upset, right?

After the ninth round of the British game, the Saints set off for Paris, France, to participate in the third round of the UEFA Champions League group stage. ┞┡┠┟═╡.

Paris Saint-Germain is in full swing with Monaco in the Ligue 1 league championship this season.

Ronald Koeman's team did not change much in the defense this summer. After Costa Rica goalkeeper Navas switched to Real Madrid, the team introduced Timo Horn from the Bundesliga Cologne.

The entire defensive line still maintains the level of last season, but the midfielder sold older players such as Biglia, Turalan, and Capue, and introduced Schneiderlin, Sanson, Wanyama is the three young players who are more shapeable when they are playing.

The other is the introduction of Hernandez and Mbappé on the striker, which sold the disappointing Benzia.

This is also no alternative.

The team originally hired Benzia from Lyon with a lot of money. It was because he felt that this teenager has the potential of Benzema. However, his limited progress, coupled with the player’s own problems, eventually led Monaco to give up and remove him. Send away.

At the beginning of this season, Monaco won three consecutive victories. Although the team had a lot of problems, they won steadily.

But in the fourth round of the league, Monaco lost to Paris Saint-Germain one to two at their home court, giving up the league leader's position in vain.

This battle caused Monaco and Ronald Koman to be criticized and put under great pressure.

However, the Monaco management, with Michael Bolingbrook and Jean Luc Bissing, successively expressed high-profile support for Ronald Koeman and believed that he could lead the team out of the shadows.

Although in the next two rounds, Monaco's performance was not ideal, with one win and one loss, widening the gap with Paris Saint-Germain.

But after learning from it, Ronald Koeman quickly found the key to the team's victory. After the four rounds, the team won four consecutive victories, many of which beat Gingon 6-0 at home and Rennes 3-0 at home. , A wonderful home victory over Lyon four to one.

However, despite Monaco's consecutive victory, Paris Saint-Germain's performance is not bad.

Although the fourth and fifth rounds of the league tied Bordeaux and Lens respectively, Paris Saint-Germain won all the following matches.

Therefore, the current Ligue 1 standings is still Paris Saint-Germain in front, and Monaco is two points behind and second.

But there is no doubt that the championship battle between the two teams has completely heated up.

At this time, Southampton was visiting the Park of Princes. In addition to winning the third Champions League group match and defending the top position of the group, Southampton also bears the burden of breaking the undefeated golden body of Paris Saint-Germain for Monaco.

At the beginning of the game, the Saints attacked with all their strength and frantically attacked.

In this game, Sanchez replaced Suarez, who had to take a break because of consecutive participation in the national team competition and non-stop participation in the game against Manchester United after returning.

As a result, in the 16th minute, Sanchez made a low pass after a forced breakthrough on the right, and Hazard from the left followed up with a push and penetrated the goal of Paris Saint-Germain.

Paris Saint-Germain has consciously strengthened the defense. With Thiago Silva and David Luiz as the back line, the defense is arranged very tightly. Southampton will not find a chance for a while.

In the second half, Kovacic replaced the injured Tony Cross, and Ancelotti had to let the team slow down.

Paris Saint-Germain seized the opportunity to press on and strengthen the attack.

But in the 67th minute, the teenager Chambers on the right made a wonderful pass. Messi relied on his tyrannical personal ability to forcibly break through David Luiz and scored a single goal, two to zero.

After that, Paris Saint-Germain was unwilling to show weakness and pressed on again, but Varane made a long pass from the backcourt in the 78th minute. Messi easily countered offside successfully and scored again, three to zero!

This goal also completely sentenced Paris Saint-Germain to death!

There was a deathly silence at the Prince’s Park Stadium. Everyone couldn’t believe the scores on the stadium, watching the team they thought they were already capable of being beaten by the Saints from England at their own door. The sieve.

The score of three to zero shows the strength gap between the two teams.

In the end, the Saints successfully took three to zero and retreated from the Parc des Princes. What was left was the depression and melancholy of Paris Saint-Germain and even some reflection.

The French media even stated after the game that between Paris Saint-Germain and Southampton, there is only one Messi!

But is it only a Messi?

Returning to England from the European arena, the Saints quickly went north, at Liverpool's Anfield Stadium, with the goals of Messi and Suarez, defeating the Reds Liverpool 2-0.

Although after the end of this game, Liverpool's league ranking is still tenth, but the two goals lost to Southampton, still very depressed the Red Army.

Coincidentally, Chelsea lost one to two away to West Ham in this round, and the ranking dropped again.

But North London’s Tottenham Hotspur beat Bournemouth in a five-to-one away game, and Cristiano Ronaldo performed a hat-trick and won the standings.

This has also surprised the British media one after another, and they are all hyping, thinking that Messi and Suarez combined can barely compare to a Cristiano Ronaldo.

Also, if you look at the number of goals scored by both sides, it is true.

However, Messi responded publicly when accepting an exclusive interview with Charlene Laherit, saying that he was in a very good state and that he would definitely score goals.

"The competition between me and Cristiano has just begun!"

Suarez also publicly expressed his unwillingness to be outdone in an interview with The Times.

"Everyone thinks that the Sagittarius King should be Cristiano or Rio, but why didn't anyone say it was me?"

"I hope to break this perception of others!"

But some media analysis believes that since Messi's comeback, Suarez's goal has been curbed, and he no longer has the opportunity created by the Saints as before.

Therefore, many media believe that whether it is Messi or Suarez, to catch up with Cristiano Ronaldo, you have to have unlimited firepower in the team like the Portuguese did.

But head coach Ancelotti obviously doesn't think so.

When the British media, as well as the media and fans all over the world, were hyping and paying attention to the goal battle of Messi, Suarez and Cristiano Ronaldo, Sun Yue suddenly came to Southampton.

He also brought a very important piece of news, directly calling Yang Huan a helpless sigh.

The plan can't keep up with the changes!
