I brush achievements in football

The timely adjustments did not have any good results, which made Mancini feel very headache.

During the intermission, he emphasized that he should control the ball more when attacking. After all, Manchester City is also very technical. Playing ball possession tactics, the intensity of Southampton's midfielder is not as good as usual, so Manchester City's offense is also very strong. It will be fine.

This wave of response made the players feel suddenly enlightened. Indeed, since our pressing is not enough to prevent Southampton from playing possession, but Southampton's pressing is not enough to prevent us from playing possession!

They can control it, but I can't control it?

Manchester City played with high morale.

However, Ji Ya changed two people during the intermission.

Drinkwater came on and replaced Mkhitaryan, Ronaldo came on and replaced Nolito.

Increase the running and defense of the midfield. As for Mkhitaryan's ball control, it will be done by Ronaldo who came off the bench...

The Manchester City players were dumbfounded.

Now they don't play ball possession tactics, and start to defend and counterattack?Is this still on track?

Mancini felt something was wrong. Every time Kiya made changes, it seemed that he had figured out what he was going to do. If this happened, this game would be really dangerous.

But now he has no other choice but to bite the bullet and launch an attack.

Already behind, what can we do if we don't attack?

But fortunately, Manchester City does not lack offensive means.

In the following time, they began to continuously create opportunities.

However, Southampton's defense is quite solid, firmly guarding the penalty area, even if they want to shoot long shots from the outside, someone will definitely go up and interfere immediately.

Under such circumstances, if you can still hit a world wave goal, we will admit it!

Southampton's attitude is very bachelor, Manchester City's attitude can only be the same.

They began to attack continuously, while Southampton continued to defend.

Silva broke through to create a corner, Nasri took the corner, and Kolo Toure's header went wide.

Balotelli pulled the ball out of the penalty area and passed the ball. Aguero shot directly after receiving the ball and missed it under the timely interference of Drinkwater.

Yaya Toure's long-range shot was blocked by Matuidi. After taking the ball again, Yaya Toure made a cross pass. After receiving the ball, Silva curved the ball and shot wide of the far corner under the interference of Dembele.

Yaya Toure passed the ball, and Nasri shot a low shot from the corner of the penalty area, which was crushed by Navas.

"Manchester City's current situation is not good. Although their offense is constantly creating opportunities, they seldom hit the penalty area. They are all long-range shots... This kind of offensive efficiency is indeed too low."

"It's really rare that Southampton can implement tactics to this level, but before they lost, they were always able to control the situation on the field. For the middle and lower teams, they may not be able to win because of bad luck. Goals, but when you play against a strong team, you can often seize opportunities better."

"That's right, Southampton's performance may not be stable enough now, but when they face top teams, they can do nothing inferior!"

The commentators praised Southampton's performance one after another. Indeed, their performance in this game is also worthy of praise. Although only 10 minutes have passed since the game, Manchester City really has no hope of scoring a goal.

Mancini made a desperate move and replaced Barry with Dzeko to increase the ability to grab points in the penalty area, but in this way, their ability to return to defense became weaker...

Southampton established the victory in the No.80 minute. The midfielder's direct pass to William created an opportunity. After William broke through from the wing, he made a pass. Two goals!

Two to zero, Southampton beat Manchester City at home!

This is not considered an upset, but it made the direction of the whole season start to move in an unknown direction!

"You guys really beat me..." Mancini couldn't help but say something.

"We have to grab points to keep the top four." Ji Ya sighed.

Mancini shook his head. He had no other thoughts. After all, Southampton had no reason to release water. Southampton also performed very well in this game.

"I hope you play so well against Manchester United." Mancini can only say this in the end.

"I'll do my best." Kiyoshi replied.

"I'm very happy with the performance of the players in this game... especially Luke Shaw, yes, he is still young, but he is already a good part of Southampton's youth academy. I will not use him blindly. , What young players are most afraid of is to backfire, so I didn't bring him to this press conference. Southampton can always produce excellent players. Is this the characteristics of our club? Manchester City? Manchester City is still a team A strong team, we were actually lucky to win this game." Kiya said at the press conference.

Mancini admitted that he was suppressed by Ji Ya in terms of tactical adjustments in this game, but there are still ten rounds in the league, and Manchester City will not easily give up the chance to hit the championship. Manchester City has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time years.

However, it is obvious that this defeat of Manchester City made them lose the top spot that they had maintained for [-] rounds.

Since the eighth round, they have not lost this position, but in the No.20 eighth round, they were overtaken by Manchester United!

"Thank you Southampton for helping us a little, but we will perform better next time." Ferguson said after leading his team to beat West Bromwich Albion with two goals.

Obviously, the competition between the Manchester duo has reached a fever pitch. Southampton is still eight points behind Manchester United. In fact, it is already difficult to hit the top few.

However, Southampton has secured their third position, and now they are six points ahead of Tottenham. Tottenham lost to Manchester United in the last round, and Tottenham lost to Everton in this round. Dun flung it away.

Arsenal with 52 points and Chelsea with 49 points are still a long way from them.

Next is Tottenham, Arsenal and Chelsea competing for No.4.

Southampton can focus more on the Europa League.

Defeating Manchester City undoubtedly gave Southampton enough self-confidence to allow them to successfully walk out of the previous predicament.

Then their games also began to return to normal.

In the second leg of the Europa League quarter-final against Standard Liege at home in midweek, Southampton completed a hearty victory at home.

Ronaldo scored twice, plus Klose and Vidal's goals, Southampton swept Standard Liege [-]-[-] at home and entered the quarter-finals of the Europa League with their heads held high!

This victory allowed Southampton to receive countless praises again. The reason is very simple. In this wave of knockouts, both Manchester United fell into the sand...

Manchester City was eliminated by Sporting Lisbon, and Manchester United was eliminated by Athletic Bilbao. In a blink of an eye, Southampton became the last only seedling of the Premier League in the Europa League!
