Chapter 614 Timely Adjustment Is Better Than Still

"Mist grass, can this score a goal?"

Ji Ya had a rare stunned expression, while Mourinho on the other side had already opened his arms and started celebrating wildly.

This goal is indeed very important. It equalized the score and Ibrahimovic scored twice. The most important thing is that the emotions of the Manchester United players began to stabilize.

Mourinho looked at the bench, there are still many people he can replace, such as Fellaini, Rashford, Mkhitaryan...

Fellaini can strengthen the defense of the midfield, Mkhitaryan can strengthen the offense, and Rashford can strengthen the strength of the counterattack, but it seems that it is not the time for substitutions yet.

At this time, he saw that Ji Ya had changed another person, replacing DePaul with Prouse.

"This is a substitution to keep the midfield alive... Isn't he in a hurry?" Mourinho thought to himself.

Ji Ya is really not in a hurry.

Although this final was unexpectedly difficult, it was still only the final of the League Cup. The champion of the League Cup is not a particularly important championship for Ji Ya, so he can certainly calm down a bit.

As for the fact that if he wins, he can become the head coach with the most League Cup titles, Ji Ya really doesn't care too much. It is not difficult to break this kind of record, and it is not a problem to keep it to break in the future.

So he really maintained a normal mind at this time. On the contrary, Mourinho, who is more experienced and knowledgeable, began to worry about gains and losses.

Because his current pressure is indeed greater than that of Ji Ya.

So the indecision at this time caused Manchester United to lose a good chance to win the game.

In the next midfield confrontation, Southampton began to gradually gain the advantage-the physical advantage they gradually established in the first half also began to become obvious.

After Prowse came on the field, Phillips began to run more actively, regardless of physical fitness. After Prowse gained a firm foothold, Kiya replaced Phillips with Hoybil and continued to increase his running in the midfield.

As for Manchester United's midfielder, although Carrick only played, he is older after all and consumes more energy, while Pogba and Herrera's physical energy was consumed a lot in the first half. At this time, it seems more tired.

Physical fitness has an advantage, and Southampton naturally creates more threatening balls.

Rojo had to bring him down when he advanced against Dembele and received Manchester United's fourth yellow card of the game.

De Bruyne took a free kick from the right and passed the ball into the penalty area. Bailey made a clearance first. Prause kept the ball from the outside and shot directly from a long distance. The ball slightly missed the far post.

After 2 minutes, Coutinho was brought down by Valencia on the left side. The referee softened his hand and did not show a yellow card. Coutinho passed the ball into the penalty area. After receiving the ball, Dembele broke through and shot the ball. Hitting the side netting.

Seeing that Southampton's offensive is getting more and more fierce, Mourinho is getting more and more entangled. At this time, he should replace Fellaini with a good defense, increase the defense of the midfield, and stabilize this wave first, but if If the last substitution quota is used, it will be very difficult to adjust the counterattack in the next time.

If Fellaini is replaced, the best result is just to defend until the penalty shootout.

But if the attacker is replaced by offense instead of defense, can it really withstand Southampton's increasingly violent offense?

This is where Mourinho struggles right now.

Such entanglements are often extremely fatal during critical periods.

After all, at times like this, the coach often has to make clear instructions and adjustments, whether it is right or wrong, only by making adjustments can the players not be confused at this time and move firmly in one direction.

If the head coach does not move, the players will be confused.

When people are in the game, they always look at the most confused moment. In such a situation, it is especially difficult to win.

As for the Southampton players, there is no confusion at this time.

They already have an advantage in the midfield, so just continue to attack and take the lead!

De Bruyne took a corner kick, Rudiger's header was a bit straight, and it was taken by De Gea.

Dembele cut in from the side and then shot, which was saved by De Gea.

De Bruyne scored the ball, and Coutinho's cross was first destroyed by Bailey.

As Southampton's offense became more and more fierce, Mourinho finally made up his mind, but at this moment, Southampton completed a beautiful cooperation!

Du Yue, who pulled out of the penalty area, received a pass from Prouse, and then he turned around and seemed to be about to break through forcibly. Kicked the ball and passed the ball to the right side of the penalty area. Dembele went forward to catch the ball at high speed, then cut in diagonally, and then passed the ball back to the other side of the penalty area in an inverted triangle. Coutinho followed up and kicked directly shoot!

The ball roared and flew into the dead corner of the goal for the fourth time!

Four to three!Southampton lead for the third time in this game!

This goal undoubtedly won the final victory for Southampton!

Mourinho replaced Valencia with Rashford at this time to strengthen the offense, but it was too late, and the remaining few minutes were not enough for them to score goals!

And Ji Ya also replaced Coutinho with Van Dijk to strengthen the defense in the penalty area. The opponent's centers are still a bit powerful when attacking, so you need to be careful.

Under Southampton's cautious defense, they finally held Manchester United's counterattack for the rest of the time!

Four to three, a seemingly thrilling score, became the final score of this League Cup final!

Southampton defeated Manchester United and won the League Cup this season!

This is also the fourth League Cup championship in Southampton's history, and also the fourth League Cup championship won by Kiya as a head coach. This makes him tied with Ferguson and Clough as the number of times to win the League Cup Most head coaches!

Of course, if he still gets one, then he will enjoy this honor exclusively.

Du Yue is the first player to score a hat-trick in the final of the League Cup for more than 50 years.

This is also a great achievement.

When Ji Ya led his players to lift up the trophy, tens of thousands of Southampton fans at Wembley Stadium gave out huge cheers at the same time, celebrating the arrival of this champion!

"We won the League Cup. Three days later, we will break the unbeaten record of the five major leagues, and break it with a victory!"

Countless Southampton fans shouted like this, and this is their only voice now!

Use a victory to break the unbeaten record of the five major leagues!
