Chapter 563 Meeting Barcelona Again
Southampton successfully eliminated Bayern Munich in the away game and advanced to the semi-finals.

The outside world is not surprised by this result.After all, after playing like this in the previous round, apart from a miracle, Bayern Munich has no chance of a comeback.

What is more emotional is that Sun Yi did not send Ronaldo, Balotelli and Van Dijk in this game at all.

They all sat on the bench until the end of the game.

This makes people have to lament the strength of the Southampton team and Sun Yi's courage.

Sun Yi will do this entirely for the next opponent in the Champions League semi-finals.

Otherwise, based on his dislike of the Germans, Southampton will definitely make Bayern Munich want to cry.

What Sun Yi has been guarding against is the Barcelona team that he is likely to meet next.

As a result, it turned out to be exactly what he thought, and the Barcelona team successfully eliminated their opponents, thus becoming Southampton's next semi-final opponent.

Now the Barcelona team is no better than last season, it is the real enemy of the Southampton team.

If the Barcelona team is still the same as it encountered in the semi-finals of the Champions League last year, Sun Yi will definitely not be like this.

With De Jong, Mbappe and Griezmann, the Barcelona team has regained its status as one of the strongest teams in the world.

After more than half a season of running-in, today's new lineup has begun to show extremely terrifying combat effectiveness.Fans began to call out 'Dream Three'.

Just thinking about it, Sun Yi knew what a terrible opponent Barcelona would be.

In order to prepare for this battle with Barcelona, ​​he will not spend too much energy in the next few domestic games.

Like the next two Premier League games, Sun Yi is basically based on substitute players.

For core players like Ronaldo, Sun Yi strictly controls their playing time.Just keep them competitive.

Southampton's substitutes also performed well in their two games against Watford and Norwich.

They won 2:0 and 2:1 respectively.

This allows Southampton to continue to maintain the lead in the Premier League.Sun Yi doesn't need to be drawn into the energy either.

Especially the core players can get enough rest, Sun Yi is really satisfied.

Only in the second leg of the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea, Sun Yi was more attentive.

However, for the sake of the Champions League, Sun Yi is also mentally prepared not to win the Chelsea team.

Chelsea, on the other hand, continued the last bus tactic.

Their main objective was to drag Southampton into a penalty shoot-out.In this way, they have a greater chance of beating Southampton.

It can be said that for most of the second leg of the FA Cup, Chelsea's goal was achieved.

They used the bus tactics to hold back Southampton's offense.

Considering the Champions League, Sun Yi did not let a few core players play the whole game.For example, Ronaldo only played for seven or 10 minutes before being replaced by Sun Yi.

Penalty shootout is penalty shootout.

Let God decide who gets to the final.

Sun Yi has such an idea.

But what surprised him was that after Kaka was sent on the field by him, he used his stunt 'running shot' to shoot through the goal of Chelsea in stoppage time.

Then with Kaka's goal, Southampton eliminated Chelsea and advanced to the FA Cup final.

Sun Yi was pleasantly surprised by this.In particular, I was very surprised by Kaka's performance.

"Sorry, Lampard, I am willing to nod to you for a decisive victory. It's a pity that Kaka is not willing!"

He successfully advanced to the final of the Premier League Cup and won the two Premier League games without giving his best, which made Sun Yi very happy.I also have more confidence in facing Barcelona next.

"Come on, the battle between Southampton and Barcelona has begun."

As soon as the Southampton team finished playing the domestic game, the outside world began to warm up for the collision between the two teams.

After Sun Yi played domestic games, he pulled the whole team to Spain ahead of schedule.

After arriving in Barcelona, ​​Sun Yi first gave the whole team a day off to let everyone relax.

After that, he began to lead the Southampton team to step on the field and prepare for the game.

During the preparation period, in order to keep confidential, Sun Yi asked the Southampton team to conduct closed training throughout the whole process.

Before the game day, Sun Yi did not appear in front of the outside world except for the press conference before the start of the game.

In order to prepare for the battle, Sun Yi made great efforts, especially conducted a large number of battle simulations.

This made his mental outlook not very good.People also look a little tired.

I'm used to Sun Yi looking haggard before the big game, but the Southampton team didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

But after the outside world took pictures of Sun Yi's appearance, they started to make a big fuss.

"The powerful Barcelona team puts a lot of pressure on Sun, and his whole body is haggard."

"Look at Sun like this, he absolutely has no confidence in the game."

"It seems that the Barcelona team is really too strong. It is so strong that Sun is about to have a nervous breakdown."

"What is about to collapse? Sun Mingming has already collapsed!"

"Southampton's visit to the Nou Camp this time will definitely lose. They are under too much pressure, and you can see it from the head coach Sun."

"It's over. It's over. Southampton looks set to lose!"

"."

The Spanish media are hyping that Sun Yi almost collapsed due to pressure.

This gave great confidence to the Barcelona side, especially the fans.

"Haha, be timid before fighting. It seems that the Southampton team will lose this time at the Nou Camp."

"Revenge, this time we must avenge our elimination in the semi-finals last year."

"What a coincidence. Meeting again in the semi-finals of the Champions League, this is definitely God's arrangement. His old man hopes that our Barcelona team will wash away the shame."

"The restoration of glory starts with Southampton."

"This time, at the Nou Camp, we must bloodbath the Southampton team!"

"."

The strength of the strength really makes the Barcelona team full of confidence.In addition to their fans shouting to beat Southampton as above, their players are also particularly confident.

Messi said in an interview.

"Now we are stronger than ever. Our strength, our dominance can be said to have returned to the period of the six crowns."

"With such strength, I believe that this time we will definitely win a victory at Camp Nou."

Messi's statement is normal, but Mbappe's speech is more domineering.

"Why do people care so much? It's just a normal Champions League game."

"Southampton is just a very ordinary opponent. To beat them, especially here at the Nou Camp, there is no doubt at all. Because now I am in the team."
