Chapter 435 Christmas schedule and half-time champion

In the cruel professional league, no one cares about the feelings of weak teams.The report on this game only mentioned how the Huddersfield team was abused by the Southampton team.

And once the game was over, no one from the outside world paid attention to them.

Everyone immediately turned their attention to the upcoming game.

"The cruel Christmas schedule is coming!"

"Next, another monster week awaits Southampton."

"Whether they can continue to be strong this time, let us all wait and see!"

To be honest, three games a week is nothing to the Southampton team, they are used to it.Even if it's the Christmas schedule, it's just three games in six days.

The reason why it is called Devil Week is mainly due to the opponents of the Southampton team in the Christmas schedule.

The opponent on Christmas Eve is West Ham United, and this opponent is not very strong.But they are known as the Hammer Gang, and their style is still very tough.And this game is also related to whether the Southampton team wins the half-time championship.This battle, the Southampton team is certainly not easy.

But the most important thing is the next two opponents.One is the title rival Manchester City, and the other is Chelsea, which is determined to enter the title race.

Three games in six days, and there are two such opponents among them, this can definitely be called a devil's schedule.

In order to deal with such a cruel race, Sun Yi had already made preparations at the beginning.

Before the start of the Christmas schedule, in the few games of the Southampton team, Sun Yi would play as few main players as possible.

Like the game against Huddersfield, Sun Yi only sent one main player on each of the three lines in the front, middle and back courts.For the main players like Ronaldo and Van Dijk, Sun Yi didn't let them enter the squad for the competition.

With Sun Yi's preparation, the Southampton team has enough physical fitness to deal with the next Christmas schedule.

Soon, the Southampton team ushered in the first game of the Christmas schedule.

Southampton VS West Ham United.

For the Southampton team, the advantage of this game is that they are playing at home.

This day happened to be Christmas Day, so the entire St. Mary's team was not only full of fans, but everyone was wearing a Santa hat.

Although Sun Yi is not interested in Western festivals like Christmas, in order to mingle with fans and players, he also walked into the stadium wearing a Santa hat.

And before the start of the game, he also led the Southampton team to conduct Christmas interactive activities with fans at the scene.

Today, Sun Yi is really happy, and his enthusiasm for participating in the event is also very high.

Because, Juanjuan came from China.Juanjuan specially asked for a leave of absence to come to England to accompany him on Christmas Day and the following New Year's Day.And he also accompanied him to interact with fans at the scene.

After finishing the Christmas activities, it's time to enter the competition.

Since this is a Christmas game, a Westerner's New Year's holiday, Sun Yi sent Southampton's full main lineup.

It should not have been done considering the entire Christmas schedule.But in order to thank the fans for their support, Sun Yi decided to do this.

"Today is the holiday season, so for the fans to have a merry Christmas, do a good job. Give them a wonderful Christmas night!"

After the game started, the Southampton team followed Sun Yi's wishes and played hard.

In order to make the fans happy, today's Southampton team played very performatively.Not only does passing the ball cooperate with the pursuit of the beauty of flowing clouds and flowing water, but also often staged wonderful one-on-one breakthroughs.

Even Cristiano Ronaldo has shown off his extraordinary skills that he hasn't used for many years in the game many times.

This situation caused the Southampton fans at the scene to scream and applaud.

"Pretty!"

"This show is amazing!"

"..."

Southampton's performance-like way of playing football is indeed very eye-catching and makes the fans happy.

However, as the opponent West Ham United is not so happy.

Although they are the visiting team, and they are indeed far behind the Southampton team, they don't want to be the background of other people's happiness.

For their own sake, West Ham actually played very well.

Their sturdy and iron-blooded style is still the same, and when they attack Southampton players in defense, they are not at all soft because it is Christmas.

At the same time, West Ham United is not blindly defending, and they are also aggressively launching offensively.

The performance of West Ham United has brought a lot of trouble to the Southampton team.

In the case of a grade or two in strength, in addition to the bad statistics, they kept Southampton from scoring in the entire first half.

Just like that, Southampton had to enter the dressing room with a scoreless score.

There was no goal in the first half, which is a rare occurrence for the Southampton team this season.

Sun Yi did not blame the players for this.After all, it's normal for such a festival to relax and play.

However, during the intermission, Sun Yi still asked the players to score a goal first to ensure the victory.

With Sun Yi's request, after the start of the second half, the Southampton team no longer played as loosely as in the first half.Instead, he started kicking seriously.

As soon as the Southampton team got serious and started to play their normal tactical play, West Ham United soon couldn't bear it.

Less than 10 minutes into the second half, Southampton broke through the gate of West Ham United.

After 5 minutes, Southampton broke through the gate of West Ham again.

Two to zero.This time, the Southampton team has secured the victory.

So, Sun Yi waved his hand: "From now on, you can enjoy the game to the fullest."

Sun Yi let the team start to enjoy the game, but not every player.

When the game was less than 10 minutes old, Sun Yi used up all the substitutions at once.Replaced Ronaldo, Kaka and Van Dijk.

In addition to replacing these three core players, Sun Yi also secretly ordered the main players who remained on the field to play leisurely.Acting is fine, but don't hurt yourself.

Under Sun Yi's order, except for the newly replaced young players, some of the others were buried during the performance.No overly provocative actions were made.

In the end, the Southampton team won the game smoothly.

And it has once again achieved the minimum consumption at home.They scored another goal towards the end to make it three to zero.

Such a result satisfies the Southampton fans who attended the game well.

At the same time, the Southampton team also successfully won the half-time championship.

"A [-]-[-] result and a half-time championship, this is the best Christmas present!"

"Long live Southampton!"
