extraordinary coach

Chapter 536
"Play normally. As long as we play normally!"

This is what Sun Yi said to the players before playing.

For the current Southampton team, as long as they play normally, it should be no problem to win against Tottenham.

In other words, the current Southampton team will only lose to themselves.

Not only Sun Yi thinks so, but the Southampton team thinks so both inside and outside.

Because the Southampton team really has this strength.

Of course, this is not to say that Sun Yi does not value Tottenham.

Before the game, Sun Yi also studied a lot of Tottenham game videos with the coaching staff.

This season, Tottenham's lineup has not changed much, so Sun Yi still has confidence in his heart.

"Don't worry, boss. Our condition is fine. It's not easy to perform supernormally, but it's still possible to perform normally."

The players all vowed.

Then Southampton stepped onto the pitch exuding confidence.

After the necessary approach to the field, the game quickly began.

In the beginning, everything went according to the normal trajectory.

Has the advantage of absolute strength, coupled with the advantage of the home field.Southampton quite rightly had some of the upper hand.

Such a normal scene made it easy for Sun Yi to talk with Dior and Kaka sitting next to him.

Now Kaka, since he voluntarily gave way to Felix, Sun Yi has actually treated him as an assistant coach.

Although Kaka is still a player, Sun Yi will send him as a substitute in almost every game, but when Sun Yi is sitting on the bench, he will communicate with Kaka about the problems on the field.Just like Dior.

Now the entire Southampton team understands that Kaka is equivalent to the team's assistant coach.

"Boss, I feel that the Tottenham team is a little different today?" Kaka said looking at the field.

"How to say?"

"You see, Kane is not the core of their attack anymore. Their attack is not built around him."

"Yeah. You're right." Sun Yi glanced at the field and nodded in agreement. "Their starting point is Eriksen. It is he who controls the attacking rhythm."

"There is also Sun~er~Sun Xingmin. The key point of their offense is Sun Xingmin." Kaka pointed at Sun Xingmin.The pronunciation of Sun Xingmin's and Sun Yi's names is very similar, and Kaka felt a little weird when he said it.

"Your judgment is very accurate. Kaka. The key points of Tottenham's offense today are Eriksson and Sun Xingmin. As for Kane, he is more like the bait put out by Pochettino." Sun Yi said very relieved.

He feels that Kaka is very talented as a coach.He has a keen vision and can quickly capture the key points on the court.

This trait will make Kaka an excellent coach in the future.

"Kaka, you are really getting better and better. It seems that you are really becoming more and more like an assistant coach. I said, you are really adapting to this development." Dior said with a smile.It looked like a joke, but it was his sincere words.

What Dior said made Kaka very happy in his heart, but his face was also a little shy.

He could see that Sun Yi really regarded him as an assistant.But after all, he does not have a clear assistant coach status in the team, and his mentality has not yet changed.

"Old Dior is right. And you can regard yourself as a real assistant coach. As long as I am in the team for a day, you are. No, it is not." Sun Yi smiled and patted Kaka on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement .

"Thank you!" Seeing that Sun Yi spoke seriously, Kaka thanked him sincerely.

The three of Sun Yi have already deviated from the game when they said this.

But Sun Yi took a glance at the field and was relieved to see nothing unusual on the field.

However, Sun Yi quickly brought the topic back to the game on the court, discussing with Kaka, Diaw and others how to deal with Tottenham's different tactics than usual.

On the other side, Pochettino, the head coach of the Tottenham team, was watching Sun Yi and the others talking and laughing coldly.

Pochettino looked very calm on his face, and didn't seem to care about what he saw.And there was no worry about the situation where Tottenham were slightly at a disadvantage on the field.

But in fact, not only was he not worried in his heart, but he was a little happy instead.

You guys look very relaxed.

That's right, just relax and laugh as much as you want.

It's all exactly what I want.

The more relaxed you are, the easier it will be for my vision to succeed.

Just wait, soon you will stop laughing and you will be amazed!

Sun Yi naturally didn't know what Pochettino was thinking.And they have also discussed some countermeasures.

"Okay. That's it. Focus on Sun Xingmin and Eriksson. With our strength, we should limit them."

"As long as these two people are not allowed to erupt, the situation will be under our control."

Sun Yi set the tone with ease, then he stood up and went to the sidelines and began to shout to the players.

Soon, Southampton's players on the field followed Sun Yi's request to strengthen defense against Sun Xingmin and Eriksson.

And when Sun Yi adjusted the defensive focus on the field, Pochettino on the other side showed a slight smile on his face.

After waiting for 1 minute, Sun Yi confirmed the changes on the field, and Sun Yi nodded with satisfaction.

He saw that the Southampton team on the field had restricted the performance of Sun Xingmin and Eriksson.

Next, it will be Southampton who completely suppress Tottenham, and then attack slowly until they beat them.

At this time, Pochettino rushed to the sidelines nervously, and shouted loudly to the Tottenham team on the field.

"They're afraid they won't be able to carry it, so they're going to shrink." Dior said with a smile.

"That's right! In the face of absolute strength, what else can they do?" Sun Yi also laughed.

Shrinking and defending, this is the only way to fight Southampton.However, given the offensive strength of the Southampton team, in front of its high-altitude ball, ground penetration, fixed ball position, and three-dimensional offense, it is really impossible to defend against it.

Since this season, the Southampton team does not know how many tortoise shells have been smashed and how many buses have been smashed.

As long as you control the key points of Tottenham's offense, you will die if you retract!
Seeing that the Tottenham team was shrunk back, the morale of the Southampton team increased greatly, and they began to attack with all their might.

As the attack became more and more exciting, unconsciously, the Southampton team's formation was also a little bit higher.

No one cares about this. What everyone cares about now is when they can break through the gate of Tottenham.

Many people think that the next goal is about to appear.

And the fact is also true, in this situation almost fell to the Southampton team, then there was indeed a goal.

It's just that the goal was not from Southampton, but from Tottenham.

When the situation is favorable, but was scored, this is most likely to be attacked by a counterattack.

That's right, the Southampton team was attacked by Tottenham's counterattack.

Many people will immediately think that Tottenham's goal is likely to come from Sun Xingmin or Kane.

But it is not.It is even said that these two people did not play a big role in the sneak attack.

Conceding the ball, it cannot be said that Southampton's defense made a mistake, or that the defense was very problematic.

In fact, Southampton's defense is quite good.Not only did they keep an eye on Kane, Sun Xingmin, a player who was particularly threatening to counterattack, was also watched to death.

Even Eriksson, the engine of the Tottenham team, was immediately entangled by Paulinho.

It can be said that the Southampton team has done well enough in key places.Sun Yi and the coaching staff also made correct arrangements.

It's a pity that Sun Yi has thousands of calculations, but he didn't count Pochettino's real offensive point in this game.

Neither Kane, nor Sun Xingmin and Eriksson.It was Ali, who was not focused on.

When the Southampton team focused on Kane, Sun Xingmin and Eriksen, Tottenham made a long pass from the backcourt in a counterattack and found Ali, who was ambushing on the left side of the Southampton team. .

Sitting on the left of Southampton is Bertrand.It cannot be said that his ability is not good, and he will be fine against Ali in a short period of time.

Only this time, Ali had an extraordinary performance.Not only did he pass Bertrand in a high-speed attack, but he also used an inside cut to wipe out the replacement Parva.

After completing the inside cut, Ali did not give Parva a chance to stretch his foot to block, and blasted a world wave that went straight to the far corner of the goal.

Casillas struggled to catch the ball, but the quality of Alli's shot was too high for him to do anything about it.

In this way, Tottenham, relying on Ali's world wave, unexpectedly led Southampton at St. Mary's Stadium.

"Oh!!"

Seeing the players so backward, Sun Yi, Kaka and others were a little stunned.

So behind?

You know, Ali's shot was the only shot that Tottenham hit the goal frame since the game went on for nearly 10 minutes.But the only shot on target brought the goal.

It's really speechless to think that Southampton took nearly ten more shots than Tottenham but didn't score a single goal.

And no matter how surprised the Southampton team is.Tottenham are ahead.

This caused all the Tottenham players present to cheer wildly.

"My God! We scored!"

"We were ahead of Southampton here at St Mary's."

"It's incredible!"

Surprises filled everyone at Tottenham.

However, as the head coach of Tottenham, Pochettino was also very excited, but also had a confident look in his eyes.

"Haha. It's done. It's done!"

"Haha. The next initiative is on our side."

"As long as we don't make mistakes, it's not out of the question to take three points from St Mary's."

Pochettino is really very happy, and the more he thinks about it, the more excited he is.

win.I want to beat Sun!

"Huh~" Sun Yi let out a long breath.Shake off the frustration that comes with falling behind.

He admitted he was careless.He admitted that he ignored Ali, which led to the conceded goal.

He also realized that this loss of the ball was probably not an accident, it was probably Pochettino's deliberate strategy.

This made Sun Yi couldn't help turning his head to look at Pochettino who had been defeated by him several times.

Meeting Sun Yi's eyes, Pochettino also showed a very confident and somewhat smug smile.

And Pochettino's smug smile made Sun Yi realize that his guess seemed to be correct.

"It seems that I have also underestimated Pochettino."

Thinking of this, Sun Yi turned his head to look at the field, and then shouted to the Southampton players who were about to serve: "Steady. Keep calm."

"As long as we play properly, no one can beat us."

"One goal behind, we can equalize at any time, or even overtake!"

In addition to soothing the team with words, Sun Yi also asked the defenders to pay attention to Ali.

Soon, the game restarted.

Falling behind, the Southampton team will naturally launch a fierce attack.

In addition to obviously strengthening the defense, the Tottenham team also increased their investment in counterattacks.When they had the opportunity to fight back, they were really resolute.

Due to Ali's goal, Southampton also had one more defensive point to pay attention to when defending Tottenham's counterattack.This virtually increased the pressure on Southampton's defense.

Because of this, the Southampton team failed to fully recover and invest in the offense.

As Tottenham's counterattack became more and more determined, Southampton was also less and less able to attack with all its strength.

Under the restraint of Tottenham's counterattack, the defenders can only focus more on defense.

After Southampton put more energy into defense, Tottenham naturally failed to have a good chance to threaten the goal.

Especially Ali after scoring a goal. After receiving stronger defense, he will naturally no longer be able to get that kind of sneak attack opportunity.

It's just that Southampton created a lot of opportunities in the full counterattack when they were unable to attack with all their strength.But it failed to score.

Tottenham burst out with great energy when they defended desperately, especially when they had the chance to win.

Almost every one of them threw themselves into defense like hell.

Even if they have just participated in the offense, Kane and others will immediately run back to participate in the defense.

With Tottenham's desperate defense, Southampton's offensive firepower was strong, but they couldn't score for a while.

Even until the end of the first half, the Southampton team had an absolute advantage in the number of shots, but they still could only return to the locker room with the regret of falling behind by one goal.

Back in the dressing room, the pressure was palpable on the faces of Southampton's players.

There is no depression, but the face is a little dignified, and the atmosphere in the locker room is obviously very different from before the start of the game.

No way, the situation in the first half was somewhat beyond their expectations.It was more difficult and harder than they imagined.

Seeing such a situation, Sun Yi knew that he had to find a way to relieve the pressure on the players.

"Yay! Long live..."

"Our Tottenham team won't lose to anyone..."

The away locker room was quite far away, but Sun Yi heard the cheers from there.It seems that the situation in the first half made Tottenham very happy.

Seeing that the door of the locker room was not closed tightly, Sun Yi went over to close it.

Isolate the opponent's voice and isolate the negative impact on the psychology of your own players.

After organizing his brain, Sun Yi began to speak to the players.

"My fault. It was my negligence that allowed the other party to cheer like this!"
