Chapter 480 Pochettino Wants to Prove
"The future is yours!"

This is an honor, especially when it comes from Ronaldo and others.It also represents a bright future.

It's just that as the person who was said so, the Ajax players felt extremely bitter.

"What we want is now."

"We won't throw in the towel easily."

"We'll be back in a week. We'll make sure you're in the past!"

With unwillingness and humiliation, the Ajax team ended the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

This battle brought them great harm and blows.They need to go back and heal.

But they firmly believe that when they recover, it will be Southampton who will fall next time they meet.

The Southampton team left with the huge advantage of two away goals.

Although, in a two-round game, a victory is not decisive.However, after this battle, Southampton will gain three extremely favorable advantages.

Two away goals.

psychological advantage.

home field advantage.

The three factors almost represent the right time, place and people.It can be said that the Southampton team has half-stepped into the semi-finals.

In addition, the victory in this battle also allowed Southampton to deal with the upcoming difficulties in the Premier League more calmly.

It is said that it has entered the sprint stage of the season. After returning to Southampton with the Southampton team, Sun Yi naturally switched to preparations immediately.

Sun Yi will not be given much time to prepare, but in a few days, he will have to lead the Southampton team to another tough battle.

Next, the Premier League No.30 four rounds, Southampton VS Tottenham!

At present, Tottenham actually have no chance to fight for the Premier League title.

However, Tottenham are currently ranked fifth in the standings.They also need to fight for next season's Champions League qualification.

Therefore, this battle will inevitably be a hard one.More favorable is that Southampton will play at home.

Sun Yi naturally understood the meaning of this match.

"Next, our opponent is Tottenham."

"Although we had good results against them before. However, this game is related to their Champions League qualifications, and they will definitely work hard."

"It is destined to be a difficult game. Everyone must be mentally prepared."

"And this game means more to us. It's about the championship. So, we have to go all out."

"Make sure to beat them. Make sure to take all three points."

This game is so important that Sun Yi needs to do a good job in the psychological construction of the players before the game.At the same time, he also paid enough attention and preparation for this game.

A few days later, Southampton welcomed Tottenham at St. Mary's Stadium.

"We came here today, apart from competing for the Champions League qualification, the most important thing is that we have to prove ourselves."

"We want to prove that we are no worse than anyone else."

"St. Mary's here is the best place to prove it!"

Before the game, Pochettino was impassioned.

He said this to the players, but also to himself.

Now Sun Yi has become an inescapable shackle in the hearts of most Premier League coaches.

Wen has no first, Wu has no second.

The same is true in the world of football.

One day without defeating Sun Yi, Pochettino will have a feeling of inferiority in his heart.

This is almost the demon of all good coaches in the Premier League.

"Go! Go beat Southampton."

"Go get what you want and prove yourself!"

Pochettino pointed, and Tottenham stepped into the pitch with their heads held high.

"Go. Go win!"

Southampton also boarded the pitch under Sun Yi's instructions.

Soon, the game began.

The two sides have met three times this season.They are already very familiar with each other.

Therefore, there was no need for temptation, and the two sides launched a fierce confrontation.

With the fanatical cheers of the fans on both sides, the game entered a heated state from the very beginning.

In the battle with Ajax, the Southampton team actually suffered a lot.Just because of the significance of today's battle, Sun Yi sent the best lineup in his hands.

On the Tottenham side, Pochettino almost sent all the best players in the team.

Why almost?

The reason is that Pochettino put Kane, the core of the team, on the bench.

It's not that Kane is injured, nor is there a problem with Kane's competitive state.

Instead, after thinking and studying the failure in the Carabao Cup semi-finals, Pochettino finally fully realized the real weakness of Tottenham.

In order to win against Southampton, Pochettino overturned the tactical structure that Tottenham had been using before.

In this battle, Pochettino completely gave up the tactical play with Kane as the core, and he made Sun Xingmin the core of the game.

Let Sun Xingmin, an Asian player, become the core of Tottenham's tactics, which is unacceptable to most Tottenham fans.

Even when Kane did not start in this game, many Tottenham fans in the stands were already complaining.

"Why not let Kane start?"

"Is Pochettino stupid?"

Fuck you stupid, f*ck Kane.

I don't want Kane today, I just want to win!
Pochettino really went all out.All for the purpose of defeating Sun Yi.

And Pochettino's arrangement did not disappoint him.

Tottenham played a very threatening offensive with Son Xingmin as the main offensive point.

The tactics centered on Sun Xingmin completely exceeded Sun Yi's expectations.

Sun Yi never expected Pochettino to be so courageous.Making his tactical arrangements safe and wrong.

At the beginning of the game, Southampton was created several very dangerous crises at the goal by Tottenham.

Such a situation forced Sun Yi to completely overturn his previous arrangement.

As the situation went beyond expectations, Sun Yi was just adapting to the situation.

Fortunately, Southampton has home court advantage, which allows them to stabilize their position.

However, the game also reached a stalemate.

Both sides can create threats.But no one can say which side can break the deadlock first.

But this deadlock was not broken until the end of the first half.

After the start of the second half, both sides adjusted their troops and generals.

But the game was once again at a stalemate.

The stalemate in the game made the fans look very nervous.They all hope that the team they support can score goals soon.

However, the game was too tight.There was a chance, but the goal did not appear.

After seven and 10 minutes of play, the game was still a zero-to-zero stalemate.

Eight 10 minutes later, the stalemate continued.The two sides also had to make a lot of substitutions.

Sun Xingmin worked hard today and performed very well.But by this time, it was a little bit unable to kick.

Pochettino also had to let Kane play.

After 85 minutes, the game was still deadlocked.

By this time, many felt that the game might end in a draw.

But at this time, Ronaldo broke the deadlock with a volleyball smash header in a corner kick.

As soon as the ball was scored, Pochettino immediately wailed.

"It's over!"
