extraordinary coach.

Chapter 336

The people of Manchester City now completely no longer expect other teams to stop Southampton.

And after giving up this hope, they soon found that their thoughts were right.

There is currently no one in the Premier League who can stop Southampton except their own team.

The next Leicester City team also did not prevent Southampton from taking all three points.Not even if they have home court advantage.

Even the Leicester City team can't help it, and the teams behind it are even more impossible.You know, Leicester City is the last strong team that Southampton encountered in the second half of the season.

After crossing over, the Bournemouth and Everton teams behind, many people said that even if Sun Yi did not command, the Southampton team could win.

Sun Yi thought so too.For him, before the final match against Manchester City, meeting such a mediocre team is simply to warm up Southampton and keep them in shape.

However, before these two games, Southampton still has a more important game to play.

That was the semi-final of the FA Cup.

This game is more difficult.Because the opponent is Chelsea.

Although they won the Chelsea team not long ago, it is precisely because of this that this game is destined to be a difficult battle.

In Sun Yi's mind, the Chelsea team must be desperate.This is a matter of dignity.

Chelsea want to save some face, this game is their last chance of revenge this season.

Anticipating the difficulty of this game, Sun Yi paid great attention to it when the game came.

In addition to conducting pre-match simulations, he also previewed various scenarios early in training.And he also decided to go all out in this game, fielding the best lineup.

Being able to send the best lineup is also thanks to the relatively weak opponents in the next two rounds of the Premier League.Otherwise, Sun Yi would never dare to do this.

Against Chelsea, Southampton should say that the psychological advantage is still great.The only disadvantage is that this game is Chelsea's home game.

Just because it is back to Chelsea's home court, everyone in the Chelsea team is eager for a victory against Southampton.

"Back at Stamford Bridge, we must win. Because this is our home ground, our last dignity."

"Defend Stamford Bridge, defend dignity!"

This FA Cup semi-final is really important to the Chelsea team.

They are currently ranked fifth in the Premier League. Depending on the situation, the chances of qualifying for the Champions League are not high.This makes the FA Cup the last thing they miss this season.Otherwise they will get nothing this season.

In this game, there is not much to say about the Southampton team.The mentality of Southampton fans is even wider than that of Sun Yi.

In their view, it is better to focus on the Premier League.If you can get the FA Cup, you can take it, if you can't, you can also accept it.

On the contrary, Sun Yi and the players have higher demands on themselves.

"Beyond Chelsea and into the final."

Their slogan is simple.Just to get to the finals.

Soon, game day will arrive.

After playing at Stamford Bridge, Sun Yi felt the big difference between the away game and the home game.

In order to create an atmosphere in favor of the home team, the Blues fans entered the stands with all the previously unprecedented enthusiasm.They want to help Chelsea with their shouts.

"Chelsea, for dignity! Fight!!"

With the crazy cheers of the Blues fans, the game began.

After entering the game, the Chelsea team really took advantage of the home court to launch a frenzied attack.

However, the Southampton team did not show their timidity, and even fought against Chelsea.

This is quite surprising.

To be honest, Sun Yi was also a little surprised.In fact, he arranged a relatively balanced offensive and defensive tactics.It also tells the players to be careful in the early stages.

Unexpectedly, the morale of the Southampton team is really good.The huge psychological advantage over the Chelsea team made them very aggressive after kicking off.

The strong momentum made the South Shipton team play an anti-customer-oriented posture.

Seeing that the players were a little out of the arrangement of the coaching staff, Sun Yi felt that he needed to remind the players not to let them play off.

I didn't expect that before he yelled out, Nima, Southampton scored a goal.

And this goal was scored by Balotelli.His state today came out very early.Under Cahill's full marking, he first leaned on the latter and stopped his teammate's long pass with his chest, then turned around and volleyed.

And then just scored.

This is a world wave that can score the top ten goals of the season.

Not only was Courtois stunned, but everyone including Sun Yi was also stunned.

In this way, with Balotelli's amazing world wave, Southampton took the lead away from home.

What is even more surprising is that the arrival of this goal was only 5 minutes into the game.

It can be said that Southampton has made a fantastic start by accident.

After this goal, the Southampton team was even more powerful and scary.Chelsea, on the other hand, were hit hard.

Seeing such a situation, Sun Yi simply did not interfere with the players' performance.

And the players did not disappoint Sun Yi.Under Ruhong's momentum, they played against Chelsea almost the entire game.

Even if Conte made many adjustments, he still couldn't change the doomed ending since the goal.

The result was that the Southampton team won the game smoothly and advanced to the final.

The game went so smoothly that even Sun Yi couldn't believe it.The bitter fight he prepared before the game did not appear.

Even the consumption of the game was far lower than what he expected before the game.

The outcome and process of the game surprised Sun Yi, but it didn't cause much reaction from the outside world.It seems that everyone can accept this ending.

All right.In the eyes of the outside world, today's Southampton team, except for Manchester City, is normal to win anyone.

Winning the Chelsea team so smoothly not only reduced the physical consumption of the Southampton team, but also raised their morale almost to the peak.

This allowed Sun Yi to face the next two rounds more calmly after they returned to the league.

And for the last round of the Manchester City team.In the next game, Sun Yi will try his best to play with the most reasonable lineup that can preserve his stamina.

In the games against Bournemouth and Everton respectively, Sun Yi used a large number of substitute players.

What makes Sun Yi happy is that although the substitute players performed far worse than the main players, they still helped Southampton win the two games.

Such a situation is very beneficial to the Southampton team.

To Sun Yi's disappointment, the Manchester City team did not relax their vigilance.They also all successfully won the opponents in these two rounds.

The two teams therefore continue to maintain the same points.

"Looks like it's time for the final battle!"
