Chapter 101 Victory in the 1st Knockout

Naples played very positively in this game.

In fact, their situation is similar to that of Southampton. There are more young players in the team, including those who play the main force. Hamsik and Cavani are only 23 years old, and Ravitch is the oldest at 25 years old. In addition to the 33-year-old goalkeeper DeSantis, the oldest is the 30-year-old Argentine central defender Campagnaro. Everyone else is between 25 and 28 years old, and the overall is quite young.

Of course, Southampton is even younger. Chamberlain, who is less than 17 years old, is a good example. Many of the other main players are in their early 20s.

Both sides are young and energetic, so from the beginning of the game, they were entangled and caused trouble for each other.

Lots of running and confrontation, starting in midfield.

Southampton's midfielder was already good at running and confrontation, and this time it showed this characteristic to the fullest. They did not mark Hamsik, but confronted Naples' midfielder, and then tried to establish an advantage. Constant pressure through midfield.

This set was used by them in the previous game. Of course, Naples had been prepared for a long time. They started to attack from the two wings, let Macho and Dossena pass the ball to Lavezzi and others who were responding in front, and let them go directly. Threatening the goal.

This trick had an immediate effect, the two sides entangled in the midfield for a long time, and Naples relied on a set kick to score a goal!

It was Lavezzi's breakthrough from the side that created a corner kick. After Lavezzi received the tactical corner kick and made a cross, Cavani in the center feinted a shot, and Hamsik, who was inserted in the back row, faced the falling ball directly. Shake your head and attack the goal!

Navas' save was a step slower, the ball flew into the gate, and Southampton trailed [-]-[-] at home!

St. Mary's Stadium began to quiet down, and they knew that the situation was a bit serious-they didn't score in the away game, so at home, they had to win to advance to the next round!

Ji Ya shook his head, but didn't say much. In this game, Southampton's tactics were relatively open, and it was easy to lose the ball. For this, he was mentally prepared.

And he believed in his team's offensive ability even more.

In the entanglement just now, Southampton's offense was not at a disadvantage, and there was no problem with their performance, so scoring a goal must only be a matter of time.

Naples also doesn't have a steel-like defense line. If they can't even break through their gate, then Southampton won't even think about winning the Europa League. Let's concentrate on playing in the British Championship.

He was right.

In the following time, Southampton launched a tide-like attack. They gradually suppressed Naples in the midfield, suppressed Naples with pure strength, and then continued to attack.

This made Mazari very anxious. After all, it is difficult for Naples to fight back now-Southampton has such a suppressing ability, which is really surprising.

Napoli held on for half an hour before finally conceding the ball on the No. 40 minute mark - Lallana sent a beautiful through pass in midfield and Lambert was six meters from the goal in the penalty area Catch the ball at the place where you are, kick and score the goal immediately!

Naples felt that Lambert was offside, but the linesman did not raise the flag. The slow motion also proved that Cannavaro Jr. was still dragging behind when Lallana passed through. This was not an offside ball.

After taking the lead, Southampton fought hard and Lallana scored a second goal in stoppage time with an unexpected breakthrough. He broke through the Naples midfield defense and broke into the box before passing the ball To the unguarded Chamberlain, Chamberlain took a shot, bounced off the covering defender Ruiz, and then flew over the head of the unsuspecting DeSantis and flew into the goal...

"Oh, the ball went in again! Chamberlain's shot bounced into the goal of Naples! Before the end of the first half, Southampton took the lead! But they are still very dangerous now. After all, if Naples scores again, then they will still be eliminated..."

During the intermission, Ji Ya praised the players for their calm performance: "This is enough to prove that you are mature now... Yes, this is very important, and it can even be said to be very important. In the second half of the game, we will continue to control the midfield. Expand the lead if you have the opportunity! Naples is actually not that good in fighting spirit, they are more thinking about the weekend league."

The players nodded one after another, and they knew this very well.

Sure enough, after the start of the second half, Naples' resistance was still very tenacious. However, in the No. 20 minute of the second half, Klein, who assisted forward, made a cross in the penalty area. After Giroud scored the third goal with a shovel shot in front of the goal, Mazari replaced Cavani and Lavezzi successively, announcing his abandonment of the game.

The final total score was [-] to [-], and Southampton won the final victory of the game!

"The game is over, Southampton has reached the top [-] of the Europa League! This should be Southampton's best performance in the European arena. After all, the furthest they have played in Europe before is to go to the Winners' Cup The quarter-finals! But at that time, there were very few teams participating in the Cup Winners Cup, and they would be able to reach the quarter-finals by qualifying from the group stage. This is the first time they have won the knockout stage of a European competition!"

In the chanting of the commentator, Ji Ya also gained 50 achievement points, 10 of which were rewards for winning the first European knockout stage draw in the previous game, and 10 were rewards for getting the first game in this game The reward for winning the knockout stage of the European competition, and the remaining 30 are rewards for Southampton breaking through the knockout stage of the European competition for the first time...

"It seems that this season, even if it's a bit of a toss, it's enough." Looking at the remaining 850 achievement points, Ji Ya thought very satisfied.

The knockout stage of the Europa League was drawn by divisions. Before that, Ji Ya knew that the opponents in the next round would be Metalist in the Ukrainian League and the opponents in the Bundesliga team Leverkusen-and the result soon proved that Yes, there is no miracle, Leverkusen beat the opponent six to zero in two rounds...

"In the next round, we will play against pharmaceutical companies, but their information is always easier to get. I prefer to play against teams from the four major leagues. After all, it is very easy to find things related to them, and it is more convenient to analyze." Ji Said the vector to Benelli.

Benelli nodded sympathetically. Collecting information on opponents is something he often does. However, when he collected information on Salzburg in the group stage and Rapid Vienna in the previous qualifiers, he suffered enough. ...
