I just wanted to play football, but I became a Hollywood god

After the halftime break, players from both sides appeared again and the game changed sides again.

The Coventry team set up a bus, and Southampton's offense was more show-oriented, often taking long shots at every turn.

Even Rudiger rushed to the penalty area and took a long shot.

Under strong pressure, the Coventry team spent the second half in fear.

In the end, the score was fixed at 8:0.

Southampton used this hearty victory to win the English Championship!
Next season, Southampton will be directly promoted to the Premier League!
And this also means that Gu Ran's commitment to Southampton Club has been fulfilled. As soon as the transfer window opens this summer, Gu Ran will leave Southampton and go to a wealthy club.

After the game, Southampton began an unprecedented celebration.

The players paraded on floats until 10 p.m. before disbanding and going home to rest.

Coach Adkins also directly gave the main players three days off.

February 2th was still the day of the British Championship match, Southampton challenged Ipswich Town away from home.

Adkins continued to rest the main players and only sent out a substitute lineup against Ipswich.

In the end, Ipswich seized the opportunity and beat Southampton 3:1.

In fact, Ipswich could have expanded the score, but the head coach of Ipswich did not dare to do so for fear of incurring revenge from the butcher Gu Ran in the future.

For the losing Southampton team, this defeat is nothing.

After all, the British Championship has been won, and the current game is for training.

On February 2, the Europa League competition resumed.

The main players of the Southampton team left one day early and flew to Gelsenkirchen in northern Germany to challenge Schalke 04, a veteran Bundesliga team, away from home.

Speaking of Schalke 04, we have to mention a Chinese star-Hao Junmin.

Hao Junmin was a Chinese player who once played under the "devil" Magath. Magath spoke highly of Hao Junmin, but Magath did not give Hao Junmin enough playing time.

Because although Hao Junmin is very smart in playing football, his physical condition and physical confrontation have never met Magath's requirements.

Later, Hao Junmin, who was unable to get a chance to play and could only practice physical fitness in the training base, finally couldn't stand it anymore. He terminated his contract with Schalke 2011 in 04 and returned to China to play health football with a high salary.

Unexpectedly, Devil coach Magath also followed closely and came to Luneng to join Hao Junmin.

In this game, Gu Ran and Hao Junmin will not be able to meet in the Europa League.

Of course, even if Hao Junmin doesn't leave now, it will be difficult for Schalke 04 to have him in the playing position, even as a substitute.

However, there is another Asian face in the Schalke 04 lineup, and that is the former J-League rookie king and the number one right back in Asia today: Atsuhito Uchida.

The focus of today's game is also the competition between the two major Asian players.

The current head coach of Schalke 04 is their club’s meritorious coach: Hub Stevens.

This coach was born as a central defender and places great emphasis on defense and physical confrontation. This idea is also very consistent with Schalke 04's consistent style.

In 1996, Stevens took over Schalke 04, which was on the verge of bankruptcy and did not have any stars. It was under the leadership of coach Stevens that Schalke 04 re-emerged and even defeated He joined the pharmaceutical company Bayer Leverkusen, finished second in the Bundesliga, and reached the Champions League finals.

Stevens is also the longest-serving head coach in the history of Schalke 04. He built Schalke 04 into an iron army that makes all European giants fearful. Later, Stevens was poached by Hamburg as the head coach. Later, due to the death of his wife, Stevens moved to the Eredivisie and coached PSV Eindhoven and Red Bull Salzburg, and also led Salzburg. Red Bull Zburg won the Austrian league championship.

In September 2011, Stevens returned to the Schalke 9 team he was familiar with and coached the team that gave him glory for the second time.

Similar to the first time coaching Schalke 04, Schalke 04 at this time had very poor results and was only ranked 15th in the Bundesliga. Moreover, Raul, the King of the Rings, has retired, and No. is the best goalkeeper in Europe. Il was also poached to Bayern Munich.

Schalke 04 is in pieces, and the only one who can be said to be a big name is the "always beaten" Huntelaar on the striker.

Relatively speaking, Southampton's lineup is more impactful.

After the game started, Southampton launched a deadly attack from the left wing by Gu Ran.

The first time Uchida Atsushi confronted Gu Ran, he was knocked away by Gu Ran.

Gu Ran immediately made a pass to Salah from the left wing. Unfortunately, Salah stopped the ball slightly too far and was destroyed by the Schalke 04 center back's first kick.

Schalke 04's Blue Mine fans also had a false alarm.

It has to be said that Schalke 04 did a very good job defensively, and their physical confrontation ability is not inferior to the Premier League teams at all.

In the Bundesliga, Schalke 04 has always been an alternative team that places great emphasis on physical confrontation. It is not an exaggeration to say that they play in the British style at heart, but in fact, this is the most classical European football style. The so-called The British style of play is just a branch of Schalke 04's defensive style of play.

Both sides are defensive and counterattack-oriented teams, so for most of the first half, both sides played relatively dull.

Gu Ran was particularly active on the left wing. Almost as soon as he got the ball, Gu Ran would send it to the left wing, or dribble himself to confront Uchida Atsushi.

Uchida Atsuhito has been knocked away too many times to count.

In the 31st minute of the game, Gu Ran passed by Uchida Atsuto on the left and then made a beautiful pass through the ball to Lallana in the open area. Lallana took the ball and shot directly - —The ball went in.

The score on the big screen at Veltins Arena was immediately rewritten as Schalke 04 0:1 Southampton.

Southampton fans who came from afar to cheer and cheer wildly.

Schalke 1, which conceded one goal, immediately strengthened its defense.

The score of 0:1 remained until the end of the first half.

After the intermission, players from both sides appeared again and the game changed sides again.

Southampton changed its defensive strategy and adjusted its formation to a more offensive 4231 formation.

Gu Ran played in the midfield and continued to lead Southampton's offense and defense.

Both sides had thrilling scenes at the beginning of the second half.

Huntelaar once made an extremely beautiful shot in the penalty area, but the ball hit the goalpost and failed to turn into a result.

When the game reached the 80th minute, both sides were still very energetic.

Gu Ran started to explode with all his strength.
