I brush achievements in football

However, in the game on the 28th, almost everyone's glasses were broken.

The reporters, who were focused on watching the excitement, watched helplessly as the two sides entangled on the field. Chelsea put on a counterattack posture, and Southampton did not dare to really attack aggressively. They were also very afraid of Chelsea's counterattack.

Ji Ya looked at the field, a little helpless.

Mourinho folded his hands, keeping his expression on.

Both sides are clear that there is a deep fear between each other.

Southampton's offense, even if Chelsea has a top-level defense, they have only conceded [-] goals in [-] games so far. The defensive strength is the best in Europe, and it is difficult to really say that they can withstand Southampton. Ton's attack.

Southampton, on the other hand, did not dare to attack boldly.

The first is that Chelsea's defense is really good. If they want to score goals, they have to devote themselves to the offense.

The second is Chelsea's counterattack. This season, their counterattack mainly relies on Diego Costa. This Spanish striker has been at his peak in the past two years. He can score goals by himself. Chelsea's tactics this season as a whole To put it simply, it is basically like Atletico Madrid last season. While focusing on defense, the counterattack is to find Costa alone to see if he can pick up the wallet.

Costa's performance is also very good, always able to score goals.

Moreover, his performance allows opponents to focus on him when they are attacking. In this way, the opportunities for William and Hazard begin to increase.

Chelsea have scored [-] goals in [-] league rounds so far, and only [-] were scored by Costa. However, the other goals are basically inseparable from Costa.

Under such circumstances, how dare Southampton attack with confidence?

So the current scene is ugly. Southampton dare not attack boldly, while Chelsea's defense is quite solid.

Although there was still a goal in the game, in the opening No. 17 minutes, Lukaku took an unreasonable shot from the front of the penalty area to give Southampton the lead. Costa attracted enough attention before half-time and Hazard dribbled into the box to equalize for Chelsea.

These are also the only two goals in the game.

Both sides did not have ten shots combined, Southampton had six and Chelsea had two. For the two teams with the most goals scored in the Premier League this season, such a game is obviously still a bit ugly.

However, the head coaches of both sides seemed quite satisfied after the game.

"It's a pity that we didn't win, but at least we didn't lose. In my opinion, the gap between us is still five points. The gap of five points is nothing. We have opportunities in the second half of the season." Ji Ya said.

"I'm not too happy with a point away from home, but it's okay. Sometimes we want this and we want that, but when we can't have both, we can have one. Our second half of the season There won't be more games than Southampton, and we are strong overall, so I don't think we will fall behind in the second half of the season," Mourinho said.

The reporters agreed, what are the two head coaches who led the team to play such an ugly game still pretending here?Who is this.

However, this draw is indeed beneficial to both sides.

Because it all depends on peers.

Both the Manchester duo suffered a draw this round, and the opponents are not strong. Manchester United's draw with Tottenham is nothing, but Manchester City was tied [-]-[-] at home by the [-]th-ranked Burnley. We can only watch helplessly. Seeing that he is still three points away from Chelsea.

Since Pellegrini took office, Manchester City has also played some beautiful games, but they have not won a championship so far, which also makes their management a little dissatisfied. If there is no suitable head coach now, they might have chosen to replace them. up.

Ji Ya is actually not too satisfied with being tied by Chelsea. However, considering that they will meet Arsenal in the first game of the new year and then Manchester United in the next round, it seems that it is possible to have a draw in this game accepted.

After all, Southampton's next game task is indeed heavy.

On January [-]st after the new year, Southampton's home game against Arsenal and Chelsea's away game against Tottenham were played at the same time, which made many Southampton fans very nervous. In addition to Na's game, he also pays attention to the situation of another game at any time.

Arsenal are worse.

As the only BIG6 team defeated by Southampton in the first round, they are already very depressed. Although they are still ranked fifth, Southampton's performance in the Premier League in the first half of the season has been considered strong. Team filter, this directly filters out Arsenal, thinking that they are not a strong team...

However, with the performance of this game, it is difficult for them to consider themselves a strong team.

After being tied by Chelsea in the last round, Southampton played against Arsenal more vigorously. After all, compared with Chelsea, Arsenal's defense is not so good, and the counterattack is not so sharp...

In this game, Ji Ya rotated some players. Perisic returned to the starting lineup to partner with Valdi Suarez, and Schneiderlin was used in the midfield. Fonte had just returned from injury and was just sitting on the bench. Did not appear.

And this kind of lineup is better in ball control. Schneiderlin is more versatile. His defense is not as good as Casemiro and Matic, but he can help organize and attack.

So under their instigation, Suarez opened the door to victory for Southampton in the first half. Cancelo's cross from the wing flew into the penalty area, Perisic ferried the header in the penalty area, and followed up. Suarez scored with a stab and scored the first goal!

In the second half, Perisic also scored again. He shook his head first behind the penalty area and headed the ball saved by Martinez into the empty goal. Arsenal's offense was difficult to create in the face of Southampton's control. Opportunity came out. The only few threatening shots were saved again and again by Gulac, who has recently secured his position as the main goalkeeper.

Wenger was still commanding off the field at the beginning, but he seemed to give up after Southampton scored the second goal in the second half. Southampton completely controlled the situation in the midfield and basically gave Arsenal nothing. Opportunity, it is indeed too difficult to win this game.

In the end, Southampton beat Arsenal [-]-[-] at home. While completing a double play against Arsenal, they also got good news...

"Chelsea lost [-]-[-] away to Tottenham!" Benelli said to Kiya.

"How much did you lose?" Ji Ya was a little stunned.

This is indeed what he did not expect, after all, in his opinion, Tottenham did not perform well this year.
