Chapter 226 Wait for us to make history

Southampton's [-]-[-] victory over Real Madrid almost shocked the whole of Europe.

Compared with this game, in another game, Dortmund also defeated Ajax with a score of [-] to [-], which seems to be nothing news.

However, Dortmund's victory pushed both Real Madrid and Southampton into an embarrassing situation. Now Dortmund's points have reached eleven points, and they have already won the first place in the group one round ahead of schedule. Real Madrid's points are still the same It was seven points, and Southampton reached six points.

Southampton have to beat Dortmund in the last round, and then count on Real Madrid to be defeated or tied by Ajax before they have a chance to qualify.

Of course, Dortmund, who has already qualified in the last round and won the first place in the group, will definitely not fight Southampton, and even push Real Madrid out of the knockout stage of the Champions League. It is a good thing for Dortmund and other teams. It's a bit too difficult for Real Madrid to lose the chain at this critical moment. They have swept Ajax away.

"Winning this game is a reflection of our team's hard work. Although it seems to be a bit late, I am still happy for this victory! In the last round, we will work hard to beat Dortmund, and then wait for Real Madrid to make mistakes. Even if we didn't make it to the knockout stage, we ended our first trip to the Champions League with our heads held high!"

After the game, Ji Ya did not find a chance to shake hands with Mourinho, but at the press conference, his words aroused applause from the reporters present. What made Mourinho look ugly was that he even saw a lot of All the Real Madrid journalists he knew were applauding...

Damn, what does this mean?It's too late for me to finish class, right?

Perhaps it was because Ji Ya gained the physique that became the focus. In the next period of time, the media continued to praise Ji Ya and Southampton. After all, this victory was indeed very surprising.

So even in the game back to the league, the somewhat overworked Southampton drew [-]-[-] with Newcastle at home, and did not encounter any criticism-after all, winning such an important game earned face for the Premier League , The reporter is also embarrassed to slap himself in the face, let alone the Southampton Civil War expert.

In the next league game in the middle of the week, Southampton's main lineup, who had recovered their physical fitness, beat Norwich [-]-[-], with Klose and Mkhitaryan each scoring a goal.

In the No.15 round before the final round of the Champions Cup, Ji Ya rotated most of the main players. They also lost the game cleanly in the away game, [-] to [-], a score that is not embarrassing, but this game But it was the first time that Southampton failed to score a goal in all official games this season!

Even if they lost the previous game, they would have scored at least one goal.

Ji Ya didn't care about this, the media didn't and didn't criticize this, because everyone knew that the next game was the most critical.

Go away to challenge Dortmund.

But this game, in itself, has nothing to say.

Ji Ya sent his own main lineup in the game, but Klopp hid a lot of players. For example, the core midfielder Gotze and Royce were not on, and Hummels was also rotated in the defense. It's normal. Dortmund is also in a fierce competition with Bayern in the league this season. Since the Champions League group stage has qualified ahead of schedule and won the first place in the group, why is he working so hard in this game?

And if Real Madrid qualify and Southampton qualify, of course the whole of Europe wants Southampton to qualify, except for UEFA officials.

In the end, in Westfalen, although Southampton was scored by Dortmund's substitute Bale in the second half, they relied on three goals from the front trident and defeated Dortmund [-]-[-] in the away game. Nine points.

The only regret is that Real Madrid did not make any mistakes. They defeated Ajax [-]-[-] at home and qualified second in the group. Southampton could only play in the Europa League as the third in the group. cup……

"Now we really can only fight for the three consecutive Europa League championships."

Kiya didn't seem too depressed in the post-match press conference, and his words also aroused countless discussions. After all, based on Southampton's performance in the last two games, it is not a big problem for them to advance to the knockout stage. Now they can run Going to play in the Europa League is purely due to lack of experience, or being cheated by the schedule.

And when it comes to the Europa League, are they still afraid of lack of experience or being cheated by the schedule?

They have incomparably rich experience in this area!

If Southampton wins the first Europa League treble in history, then they can undoubtedly engrave their names in football history!

Barcelona once won three consecutive titles in the UEFA Cup, the predecessor of the UEFA Cup, but this was not recognized by the UEFA Cup after all. Inter Milan won the UEFA Cup three times in the 90s, but did not defend it. Although the UEFA Cup at that time The gold content is much greater than it is now, but being able to defend or even win three consecutive championships in European competitions is a very remarkable thing in itself!

You must know that in the traditional three major European cups, except for Real Madrid's five consecutive championships, Ajax and Bayern's three consecutive championships, the other teams are at most defending their titles. Even in the European Cup Winners Cup that has disappeared, defending No champion ever appeared.

Being able to achieve such a result in the Europa League is enough to make people feel surprised.

"This is just a little consolation for us. We lost the qualification to continue to participate in the Champions League. Even if we win the Europa League, we cannot get back this loss."

Ji Ya said this in the team, and the meaning of what he said is obvious-at least the first half of the season was a failure, and only by launching an impact on the Premier League and the Europa League in the second half of the season will there be a chance to wash away the failure of the first half of the season!

While it might seem arrogant to say that, the players at Southampton feel that there is... nothing wrong with it.

"In the second half of the season, we will win as many championships as we can." Ji Ya said to the players.

"Now, the time for our sprint begins!"

Captain Feng Te jumped out, raised his arms and shouted.

"That's right, the league, the Europa League, the League Cup, the FA Cup, we must win what we can, otherwise we can't make up for the loss of not being able to play in the Champions League knockout round!"

"That's right, that's an income of tens of millions of euros!"

The players shouted one after another. It was obvious that their focus was a bit off, but from a certain point of view, what they said was extremely correct.

Even if two more knockout games are played, Southampton's income will increase by at least more than 2000 million euros. This is the value of the Champions League!
