Chapter 1148 Looks like Another Victory

Southampton, who returned with a full load at the Golden Globe ceremony, soon suffered a small loss in the Champions League draw.

But it's not a small loss. After the group stage rankings are out, which team Southampton will draw can basically be said to be determined in advance.

Among the eight No.2s, apart from Atlanta in the same group as Southampton, the other seven teams are nothing more than Atletico Madrid and Juventus. The other teams are Borussia Borussia, Leipzig, Sevilla, Lazio, Porto They are all worse, so Southampton's opponent must be the one between Atletico Madrid and Juventus.

Southampton's group stage is already relatively easy. Even if they are not the defending champions, according to the usual practice, they will arrange a relatively strong team for them.

So in the draw ceremony, as soon as the guests made a move, they drew Atletico Madrid for Southampton...

Ji Ya chuckled, he rushed over anyway, after all, we still have to respect the draw of the top [-], and Du Yue and the others went back to prepare for the next game.

After seeing the result of the draw, Ji Ya stood up and shook hands with Simeone. Southampton and Atletico Madrid have played against each other in recent years, and Simeone smiled wryly.

No one wants to meet Southampton in the top sixteen, but there are always unlucky teams who will meet Southampton so early. This year it is his turn to be unlucky. What can he say?

"Your defense is difficult to deal with. We have to start preparing for such a game from now on." Kiya said to Simeone.

"You'd better not take it too seriously," Simeone replied.

"Atletico Madrid? It is a very strong team. After a relatively easy group stage, it is normal to encounter a strong team like Atletico Madrid. But no matter what team we encounter, we must work hard to win. Southampton The goal of this season? Of course it is to continue to defend the title." Kiya said when he walked out of the hotel for an interview.

"Does Southampton want eight consecutive championships? Besides this?" A reporter asked.

Southampton's current goal is to win the quadruple crown. In fact, it is no secret. Half a season has passed. Southampton has such a good result, and they did not let Du Yue and De Bruyne rest in all competitions. , has shown such a mentality.

"Win more championships." Ji Ya replied very simply.

But such a simple answer undoubtedly shows Southampton's ambition.

The unprecedented quadruple crown is Southampton's goal.

Although there is such a goal before half of the season, it seems that Southampton is very inflated, but based on Southampton's performance over the years, it is really not surprising that they have such a goal.

And now they have accumulated a lot of advantages in the league. Under such circumstances, it is nothing more than putting more power in the cup competition. It is not that they have no chance to complete the great cause of the quadruple crown!

"I'm starting to look forward to their next performance!"

Many people in the media began to say this. After all, seeing a living legend born in front of them is also a very pleasant thing.

In terms of hard power, Southampton certainly has the strength to win the quadruple crown. However, in the process, they will always encounter various situations. If something happens, it will be easy for the quadruple crown. The king vanished into nothingness.

Of course, even if they lose one or two championships occasionally, their season will be very successful, but it is easy to feel regretful.

"Of course the factor of luck is very important, but in this situation, we need to use our performance to minimize the influence of luck on us."

After Ji Ya returned to Southampton, he began to mobilize all the players. As long as he was serious enough in the game and his performance was stable enough, even if he was unlucky, the impact would be very low.

In the final analysis, only when one's own strength is in place can one have the opportunity to challenge for such a top honor.

Southampton now has such strength, and the next step is to see how it plays.

After three days of rest, Southampton ushered in their No.18 league game, away to challenge Leeds United.

Leeds is a veteran team and a newly promoted team this year. They have performed well this season, ranking No.12 so far, and under the leadership of Bielsa, they play fast-attacking football, which is quite entertaining. So far in the league Thirty goals have been scored. Except for Southampton, only Manchester United, Liverpool and Chelsea have more goals than them, and Manchester City even has one less goal than them.

Such a team is often also a good player in offense, and it is easy to create some miracles.

For the old coach Bielsa, this game will also be his battle to rectify his name.

Back then, he led the Argentine team and used a lineup of 3133 to win the South American qualifiers. However, in the World Cup, he was eliminated in the group stage. Since then, his reputation has plummeted, but he still insists on using offensive tactics. Among the middle and lower teams.

I have to say that such a head coach is always admirable.

And such a team, although the performance will not be too stable, but it often does something, which is impressive.

"Fortunately, it's the league. Even if something goes wrong, it doesn't matter much." Ji Ya said to Benelli before the game started.

His relatively pessimistic state makes Benelli seem a little strange-Leeds are only ranked No.12. Is it worth being so pessimistic?

And the process of the game also seemed to prove that Ji Ya was worrying unfoundedly.

Southampton created a lot of opportunities from the very beginning of the game. The brave attacking Leeds United naturally exposed a lot of space in the backcourt. For Southampton's attackers, such a space , It's like a fish in water.

No. In the 13th minute, McAllister sent a long pass over the top. Du Yue, who went forward, was successfully offside. He easily kicked the ball from the opponent's goalkeeper into the goal!

No. In 207 minutes, Du Yue took the ball from the side and sent a through pass. Vinicius, who switched to the center, succeeded in anti-offside. He also faced the goalkeeper single-handedly and scored the ball again to expand his lead!

No.309 minutes, De Bruyne took a free kick, and the opponent's defender pushed the ball out of the penalty area. Soucek followed up and kicked a world wave without stopping the ball. Southampton led [-]-[-]!

"It seems that we will win this game!" Benelli said to Kiya with a smile.

"Hmm... I thought they could cause us a little trouble, it seems that I was worrying too much." Ji Ya said thoughtfully.

Benelli laughed, just watching the first half of the game, Southampton was simply devastated, and Leeds were not given a chance. Although Leeds have been attacking respectfully, compared with Southampton, they still look inferior. a lot.

All in all, it looked like another easy win.
