Southampton finally defeated Liverpool 1-0 on the road thanks to Ibrahimovic's goal.
The result of this game quickly became the headline news in newspapers large and small in the UK and even Europe the next day.
As the most popular English team last season, Southampton's performance this season is still impressive.
They defeated Chelsea 3-0 in the FA Cup and narrowly defeated Liverpool 1-0 in the League Cup.
Southampton's strength is evident.
In BBC's famous football program Daily Match, host Gary Lineker made a very certain prediction that Southampton has a good chance of winning the cup.
"So far this season, the four Premier League teams participating in the UEFA Champions League, Manchester United and Manchester City, have all been eliminated.
Chelsea and Arsenal have advanced to the top 16, but the promotion process has also been stumbling."
"On the contrary, Southampton, the English Championship team participating in the Europa League, has performed very well in the Europa League.
So far, there have been two rounds of four qualifying matches, six rounds of official group matches, and ten games.
Ampton wins ten games in a row” "Such an outstanding performance in the European war is enough to make those Premier League brothers who participate in the UEFA Champions League feel ashamed."
"The situation in the FA Cup is still unclear, but in the League Cup, Southampton defeated Liverpool 1-0 away from home and took the lead in advancing to the final."
"What's interesting is that among the top four teams in this League Cup, three are from the English Championship, and the other two teams are Crystal Palace and Cardiff.
No matter which of these two teams advances to the final, South Africa "Ampton are undoubtedly the favorites to win the championship."
Another guest, Alan Shearer, is also very optimistic about Southampton.
The former Southampton youth trainee even shouted loudly in the program, "I am very much looking forward to seeing the Saints compete at Wembley Stadium in late February and win the first championship trophy of the new season."
The outside world is optimistic about Southampton, and the Saints are also very motivated.
After playing Liverpool away from home, Southampton finally ushered in a buffer period after the Christmas Devil schedule.
Two weeks later, at home, they tied with visiting Liverpool 2-2.
Dalglish's side made a desperate bid to overturn Southampton at St Mary's Stadium and reach the final.
But Southampton, who was sitting at home, was not a vegetarian.
They had a head-to-head battle with Liverpool.
The two sides fought fiercely and fiercely.
Southampton took the lead twice and Liverpool equalized twice.
But in the end, Southampton maintained a draw at home, eliminated Liverpool with a total score of 3 to 2, and successfully reached the League Cup final.
The opponent in the final was Cardiff, the English Championship team.
After advancing to the League Cup final, Southampton first defeated Millwall 4-1 in the fourth round of the FA Cup, and then defeated Bolton 2-0 at home in the fifth round of the knockout round, successfully advancing to the quarterfinals.
Southampton's FA Cup quarter-final opponent is Tottenham Hotspur in North London.
This team has performed very well in the Premier League this season and is expected to break the monopoly of the traditional top four on the Champions League.
After entering February, the Europa League reignited the war and ushered in the top 32 knockout rounds.
Southampton defeated Olympiakos of Greece 1-0 in both rounds and successfully advanced to the top 16.
Manchester United and Manchester City, who were eliminated from the Champions League group stage, also emerged from the top 32.
On the contrary, Tottenham Hotspur, Birmingham City, Fulham and other Premier League teams have all failed in the Europa League group stages.
This has also caused many English fans to turn their attention to Southampton.
At the very least, this team's performance in the European arena is very proud of English football.
When Southampton was overwhelming on the court, Yang Huan was still not idle.
"Ziqing, it's too late today.
I live in Southampton.
I have to meet someone early tomorrow morning."
In a car in the Lagonda Conquistador returning to Southampton from Poole, Yang Huan was on the phone to Zhuang Ziqing at One Hyde Park, London.
Anyone who has a fiancée must have an explanation when going out.
The last time he didn't go back to bed without telling her, she ended up waiting in the living room all night and caught a cold.
It made Yang Huan feel distressed for a while.
Yang Huan gradually became accustomed to Zhuang Ziqing's presence at home.
Zhuang Ziqing didn't ask any more questions, she just told him to pay attention on the phone.

They were all words of care and concern.
When people listen to it, they feel particularly heartwarming.
After hanging up the phone, the car arrived outside the gate of Southampton Villa.
Long Wu, who was sitting in the driver's seat, opened the door and drove in directly.
Xiaobu, who had heard the noise a long time ago, had already opened the door.
It's the end of February, and the temperature has risen.
Although it's still a bit cool at night, my clothes are not as thick as they were in the cold winter.
Xiaobu was wearing a pink coral velvet pajamas, but the collar was open, revealing a large amount of pink.
As soon as he saw Yang Huan, he came up to him with a smile and called out sweetly, "Young Master" Yang Huan nodded and said yes.
"Master, have you eaten?"
"No, I'm going to take a shower first."
After saying that, Yang Huan had already walked through the door.
"Okay, then I'll call you when I'm ready."
Xiaobu looked at Long Wu again and called Brother Wu.
"The young master seems very tired."
Long Wu and Xiao Bu are also familiar with each other.
After all, they have known each other for several months.
Moreover, this girl is pretty, smart and well-behaved.
She is also responsible for their daily life and food in Southampton, so she will naturally be familiar with them.
"Are you not tired?
In the morning, I first went to the bank in the City of London to apply for a loan, then went to Gayton, and then south to Poole.
I'm tired from traveling to so many places in one day."
Xiaobu curled her lips.
She could understand these things, but she couldn't understand them.
"Hurry up and get something to eat, I'm almost starving."
Long Wu urged.
Xiaobu immediately went to the kitchen, and soon the fragrant braised noodles were freshly baked.
Long Wu was also a greedy cat.
He was already hungry.
As soon as he smelled the fragrance, he immediately pounced on it and devoured most of it.
What was even more weird was that he didn't feel hot at all.
After eating, the guy walked to his room, stroking his belly with satisfaction.
"I'm going to bed.
You go see the young master."
Xiaobu looked at his back and smiled, but in his heart he was wondering why the young master hadn't gone downstairs yet.
He went upstairs and knocked gently on the door of Yang Huan's room, but no one answered.
He reached out and pulled the handle, and the door opened.
"Master" Xiao Bu gently poked his head in and found that there was no one in the room at all, and there were a lot of changes of clothes thrown on the floor.
Walked in and picked up the clothes on the floor one by one.
The young master lives in Southampton, and she washes all the clothes, so he is used to it.
After entering the room, I found that the bathroom door was closed, but there was no movement inside.
Xiaobu was taken aback and immediately walked over and banged the bathroom door hard.
"Young Master, Young Master" After about twenty seconds, Xiaobu was so anxious outside that he almost cried.
He almost called Long Wu to come and save his life.
Then there was a burst of movement inside, followed by Yang Huan's shout, "What's the matter?"

Xiaobu breathed a sigh of relief, "Master, you scared me to death just now."
There was a sound of water inside, followed by the sound of wiping.
Xiaobu stood outside, his face turned red when he heard this commotion.
When Yang Huan opened the door and walked out with a bath towel tied around his waist, Xiaobu lowered his head and didn't dare to look more.
"I was lying in there just now and accidentally fell asleep."
Yang Huan patted his head, sat on the edge of the bed, and yawned sleepily.
When Xiao Bu saw him like this, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Master, I learned massage before when I was in heaven and earth.
How about I give you massage?
I heard it can wake you up."
“real or fake” “You’ll know if you try it” After saying that, the little girl was quite enthusiastic, and took the initiative to come over, get on the bed, and kneel behind Yang Huan.
"I feel ticklish wherever I press."
"Hehe, press your head" "Oh, come on then" Yang Huan waved.
Xiaobu rubbed his hands together, stretched out his hand and gently placed it on Yang Huan's head.
He spread his ten fingers and placed his two thumbs on his temples.
He gently pushed and rubbed his scalp, as if It's looking for acupuncture points.
"The master who taught us is said to be a famous Chinese massage doctor in China.
The company invited him here just to teach the sisters who accompany customers.
Originally, I was not qualified to learn, but I watched secretly from the side.
A few times, I was studying medicine and I learned it, so he offered to teach me.”
Yang Huan closed his eyes and looked like he was enjoying it.
His hair is very short, but Xiaobu's fingers are very dexterous.
They are like snakes, constantly squirming on his scalp, sometimes scratching, sometimes scratching, sometimes pushing, sometimes pressing, using various techniques.
When it comes out, it feels indescribably comfortable.
On the contrary, I couldn't even hear what she said clearly.
"Master, let me acupress your acupuncture points."
Xiao Bu leaned over gently and spoke next to Yang Huan's ear.
Being so close, you can smell her breath, which carries a light daughter's fragrance.
"Hmm" Yang Huan was so comfortable that she could only make a sound through her nose.
I don't know what technique she used, but I felt pain in both temples at the same time.
"Hiss" Yang Huan suddenly felt pain, which was a bit unexpected.
But soon, a tingling feeling came around the temples, as if there were countless ants crawling around, making people feel a feeling of pain and happiness.
As if stimulated by this burst of pain, his head suddenly became clearer.
"Does it hurt?"
Xiaobu asked concernedly from behind.
Yang Huan shook his head slightly, "It's okay, you feel comfortable, you can continue."
Xiaobu chuckled, said "oh" and went to find other acupuncture points.
It was just like before, it hurt when I pressed it, but then it felt very comfortable.
Yang Huan gradually became immersed in the comfort of this massage, enjoying it with her eyes closed.
"Master, fifth brother said just now that you are looking for a loan.
Are we short of money?"
Xiao Bu asked wordlessly.
Yang Huan smiled and said, "How could it be?
I don't have anything else, I just have a lot of money."
"Then why do you need a loan?"
"This problem is difficult to explain.

Even if I tell you, you won't understand.
To put it simply, we need money to build hotels, stadiums and buy players.
Now Citibank is willing to lend us money at the lowest interest rate, so we don't want it.
Isn’t it a pity?”
Xiao Bu nodded, but the movements in his hands did not slow down.
"Besides, there are many benefits to loans, and you can avoid taxes by turning the financial statements into liabilities."
"Really?"
Xiaobu really didn't understand this.
Yang Huan hummed and said nothing more.
"Then you went to Guyton and Poole again.
Did something happen to the depot and shipyard?"
"What can happen is that I go to a meeting, take a look around, and sign a few orders.
That boy Hamad ordered a super luxury yacht worth more than 500 million pounds, and also ordered more than 20 Astra cars.
Martin and Lagonda should accompany him to see it."
As soon as Xiao Bu heard the name Hamad, his expression suddenly changed.
In recent years, that boy has been coming here to eat a lot, and he always glances at her intentionally or unintentionally, which makes her feel very nervous.
When I think about it, I always feel a little nervous.
"Master, can I ask you something?"
Xiaobu asked timidly
