There was silence in the away team's dressing room, no one spoke, and everyone knew that their performance in the first half was not satisfactory, and it seemed that they did not dare to relax in the first game. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

David Winston saw that the players were just sitting in their seats and bowing their heads silently, looking at the drinks and wiping the sweat from their heads.

"I'm very unhappy with the way you played in the first half, very unhappy, you played like a girl in the first game, you don't deserve to wear this glorious shirt. If you can't change things in the second half, you won't be in the starting line-up for the rest of the game, and I said that. David Winston paused. Now that we've learned the players a lesson, it's time for the tactical side.

'In the second half, we had to be more aggressive, we had to press the opposition's centre-backs at all times, and the front-end players had to be flexible without the ball, so that the Manchester City players couldn't keep up with us and caught them off guard. We have to avoid crosses that are too high, and the two wingers make you pass a low ball too much, which is good for David's movement and shooting. Got it!! David Winston crouched in the middle and explained the second half to the players in detail.

The team members nodded as they listened.

David Winston quietly walked up to Adam Lallana, put his hand on his shoulder, and admonished him in a meaningful, stern tone.

"Adam, you have to be aggressive in the second half, don't be soft, you're in a bad mentality right now, don't think you're great, you're nothing now!! You're just a normal player, you know!! ”

Impressed by David Winston's intimidation, Adam Lallana nodded mechanically and said, "I know my problem, boss, I'll try in the second half." ”

"Excellent! I hope you do what you say! David Winston nodded.

At the start of the second half, the two sides were still on the same starting line.

But after 10 minutes of the game, David Winston was surprised to find that Manchester City had actually played against him, and this was the confidence they gave in the first half. Perhaps it was the success of the first half that prevented Southampton's attacking rounds and gave them hope of victory. As it happens, that hope is also shared by Southampton.

Manchester City attacked, which gave Southampton numerous counter-attacking opportunities.

The first to attack was Manchester City, who played at home. Sinclair was menacing on the wing, and after passing Dirk Kuyt, he was ready to continue past Luke Young, but was successfully countered by Luke Young. However, Luke Young's pass was too casual and was picked up by Barton, who was assisting in the defense, and the ball was snatched back by Manchester City. Barton didn't get any drag after winning the ball, and passed directly to Vassell near the penalty line, Vassell faced Yaya Toure and deftly shook off the angle to shoot a shot.

Curveball! Straight to the far corner!!

Fortunately, goalkeeper Sebastian Frey's concentration and good positioning saved the ball off the line, temporarily defusing a fierce attack by Manchester City.

The threat of a corner was not great, and it was held tightly in the arms of Sebastian Frei. At this time, Nicky Shoreley on the left ran desperately forward, and Sebastian Frey saw Nicky Shoreley's run, and directly threw a long-distance hand-tossed ball, which was precisely guided like a missile, and passed at the feet of Nicky Shoreley.

Quick counterattack!!

Whirlwind soccer is coming!!

Due to the corner kick opportunity, most of the players of the Manchester City team pressed on the Southampton team's half, resulting in Sebastian Frei's hand throwing the ball just now, they were still slowly returning to the Southampton team's half, and as a result, Shawley had already attacked the edge of his penalty area, and at this time Manchester City only had two players in their own penalty area, a central defender and a left back.

Nicky Shoray had no intention of continuing to break through, and after running to the edge of the box, he directly passed the ball into the box with a low flat ball with strong spin.

At this time, there are three points of outflanking in the penalty area. David Villa up front, Adam Lallana in the middle, Dirk Kuyt at the back, and Miguel Arteta on the penalty line are waiting for the opportunity.

A player faces the attack of three enemy generals, and the end can only be a tragic death. There was no struggle. The struggle is all in vain.

“！！！ The ball went in!!! Southampton scored their first league goal of the season with new signing, David Villa!! Whirlwind Football, it's back!! Sky Sports commentator Michael Smith said excitedly. This is his first Premier League commentary, and he is new to Sky Sports this summer. It was a goal that spelled every word he could think of.

It wasn't just Michael Smith who was happy, but Southampton manager David Winston and the Saints fans in attendance.

David Winston was so excited that he hugged Hierro and cheered excitedly. And the enthusiasm of the Saints fans in the stadium was even more enthusiastic, and they excitedly cheered the name of David Winston, which is now the second God in their hearts.

"David! David! David! David! David! ”

The high-pitched and proud voice lingered next to David Winston's ears for a long time, but a raging fire burned inside.

After the game restarted and with the lead in the scoreline, the Southampton players were more relaxed on the pitch and more proud of their ease. They were still in control of the tempo of the game in their own way, and Barcelona's passing tactics were slowly starting to show themselves on the pitch.

The players who already have a tacit understanding on the field are playing with the opposite defenders again and again, and it can be vaguely seen on the field that the players of the Southampton team are standing in a triangle, so it becomes countless triangles, and the point in the middle is the Manchester City players.

Twenty minutes into the second half, David Winston made three substitutions at once, Alan Shearer, Peter Trohovski and Marek Hamsik, replacing David Villa, Adam Lallana and Miguel Arteta respectively.

At the end of the game, Southampton scored the decisive goal, and it was Alan Shearer who scored the goal!

After Peter Trohovski shook off a player down the left, a beautiful cross found the head of Alan Shearer, who only needed a light header to get in, and he did.

Southampton beat Manchester City bloodlessly and got off to a good start! (To be continued.) )
