After a fifteen-minute break, the two sides returned to the playing field.
But in the second half, the tactics of both sides did not change at all.
Bielsa's team dominated the first half and had no reason to make adjustments.
But it is strange that Emery's team has not adjusted.
There was no change in tactics, and the scene naturally continued the situation of the first half.
Southampton continued to have firm control of the ball and control the tempo.
But as the game progressed, Bielsa's midfield adjustments gradually became apparent.
In the first half, the left and center were active, but the right was dull.
In the second half, Bielsa obviously consciously asked Carvajal to step forward.
Valencia have Piatti on the left, but the player prefers to run towards the centre.
Therefore, every time Southampton switches from defense to offense, Carvajal's side is empty and no one is defending.
As a result, Carvajal became the most eye-catching star in the second half.
The Spanish right back dribbled the ball into Valencia's half on the right again and again, creating threats again and again.
First, in the 76th minute, he made a late insertion and cooperated with James Rodriguez who was pulled to the wing.
After dribbling the ball into the penalty area, he passed the ball to the center.
Ibrahimovic jumped high in the penalty area, beat Victor Ruiz, and scored with a header, making it 4-1.
The Swedish center also used this ball to score a hat trick Then, in the 83rd minute, Carvajal dribbled the ball from the right and passed it directly to James Rodriguez.
The Colombian player passed the penalty area with his left foot, but was blocked by Victor Ruiz.
Carvajal followed up and took the ball with his right foot in the penalty area.
After looking around the situation, he passed the ball to the left side of the penalty area with his right foot.
Stroman stepped in from behind and hit a powerful volley with his left foot, which once again penetrated Valencia's goal, making it five to one.
This is also the last goal of the entire game The entire Mestalla stadium was completely conquered by Southampton When the final whistle sounded, Southampton's players celebrated their victory unbridled on the pitch, while the fans sang and cheered wildly in the stands. five to one The total score is six to two
Southampton defeated Valencia away from home and successfully advanced to the Europa League quarter-finals "Long live yes" As soon as Yang Huan heard the whistle at the end of the game, he jumped up from his seat with excitement and clenched his fists in celebration.
Who would have thought that Southampton could slaughter Valencia with five goals in an away game?
Who would have thought that when both Manchester City and Manchester United were eliminated successively, Southampton would reverse Valencia and successfully advance to the quarterfinals of the Europa League?
It's so powerful.
Is there any?
From now on, who dares to say that Southampton is not strong?
Yang Huan exhaled heavily, turned around and looked at Manuel Llorente, who looked embarrassed.
"Thank you, Mr.
Llorente."
Yang Huan walked over with a smile and extended his hand from a distance.
"What a great game, isn't it?"
Manuel Llorente is so angry.
However, he was not angry with Yang Huan, but with his own players.
Damn, you can still lose like this while sitting on your own home court.
Are you being honest?
Do you have any professional ethics?
"The game was indeed exciting, but the result was a pity," Manuel Llorente said with a wry smile.
After losing the game by a huge score of 5 to 1, he really had no way to defend his team.
He could only say that his skills were inferior to others, otherwise why would he have conceded so many goals?
Southampton is indeed the best team in Europe Manuel Llorente thought with depression in his heart.
I have been involved in European professional football for so many years and have seen so many dark horses, but there has never been any team as dark as theirs.
No matter how strong a second-tier league team is, it is still limited.
But that's not the case with them at all From the beginning of the English League One, it has repeatedly defeated the Premier League giants, and in the English Championship League, it has become even worse, and they have come to the European competition.

It seems that as time goes by, this team may be going against the odds.
Now that the team won the game, Yang Huan's mood was naturally very different.
People say the result is a pity, and that’s right.
It would be outrageous for you to argue with others over such a small matter, wouldn't it?
The winner must have the demeanor of a winner Therefore, our young master Huan just smiled and passed by, greeted Zhuang Ziqing, and went straight to the court below.
The Southampton players, led by captain Neuer, made a special trip to the stands where the Southampton fans were.
For this game, more than 15,000 Saints fans came to the scene.
Before the game, team manager Mathieu Le Tissier suggested that no matter the outcome of the game, the fans must be thanked.
Now, winning the game is undoubtedly the best reward for all the fans who came with the team to the away game.
"Well done, Saint."
"Ibrahimovic, you are amazing" "We must win the championship."
"Champion, we want the championship" "Yes, we want the championship" "Saints, Champions" The fans in the stands were shouting wildly.
In the century-old history of Southampton Club, apart from the FA Cup, there has not been any significant championship.
But after Yang Huan took over the team, he won the second FA Cup in the first year and the League Cup in the second year.
Now he is also performing well in the European competition.
The fans naturally hope that the team can go further.
Make a difference.
What fan doesn't want the team he supports to have a great fight?
More and more Saints fans are chanting championship slogans in the stands They are calling on Southampton fans not to be satisfied with reaching the quarter-finals but to take a longer-term view.
To win the championship When all the fans in the stands were shouting for the championship in unison, Yang Huan walked out of the tunnel.
Seeing that the players were hesitant, he immediately stepped forward with a smile.
"If it's a man, just promise them."
The players all immediately looked over.
"Master Huan"
Immediately afterwards, I don't know if it was Ibrahimovic or Neuer, but someone took the lead and shouted directly to the fans in the stands, "You wait."
"Yes, wait, we will do our best to win the championship."
"The Europa League is decided by Southampton" The players' roars reached the stands, immediately triggering waves of cheers from countless Saints fans in the stands.
The momentum was as if it was going to collapse the Mestalla Stadium.
"Master Huan" After the players said goodbye to the fans, they walked to the players' tunnel and gathered around Yang Huan and Zhuang Ziqing.
"Performing well," Yang Huan praised with a smile.
“It’s just that the process is a bit dangerous.”
As a fan, who doesn’t want the team to have smooth sailing and to dominate the opponent from beginning to end?
When everyone heard this, they all laughed.
After winning the ball, no one will care about the first goal conceded.
But Varane knew it well.
"Master Huan, me" Yang Huan waved his hand, "Okay, we don't do that in Southampton, just remember the lesson, right?"
"Yes" the players all agreed with a smile.
Varane has been with the team for two years and knows the team's atmosphere and rules, so he won't say much.
I just keep the lesson learned from this time in my heart.
He must not make the same mistake next time "You guys are so proud this time.
In the short time I've been downstairs, many people have called me or sent me text messages.
The Chairman of the FA and the CEO of the Premier League have personally called to praise you for a job well done."
The players were also happy when they heard it.
The Football Association and the Premier League both called, it's so honorable "This is an affirmation, but it is also an expectation, and it is also a pressure."
After hearing this, everyone nodded in unison.

Chelsea and Arsenal were eliminated, Manchester City and Manchester United were also eliminated, and even teams such as Birmingham and Fulham were also eliminated.
Nowadays, Southampton is the only English team in the entire European competition.
This is an honor and also a pressure.
"Each of you must remember that we at Southampton cannot be looked down upon under any circumstances."
"Remember" the players immediately responded in unison.
Yang Huan laughed, "It's past ten o'clock now, are you hungry?"
"Hungry" Ibrahimovic clutched his stomach, pretending to be funny.
"If I hadn't been so hungry, I could have scored three more goals."
When everyone heard this, they burst into laughter again.
This guy has already scored a hat trick, and he has three more to come.
Are you playing basketball or football?
"Okay, let's go back to the hotel.
I'll treat you to all the delicious food and drinks."
At this time, team leader Matthew Le Tissier heard this and couldn't help but come forward with a grimace.
"But, Master Huan, the plane isn't waiting for you."
After hearing this, all the players thought it was true and their tickets were all booked.
But Master Huan was unhappy.
"Who said the plane waits for no one?"
"Hey, I'm surprised.
These days there are planes waiting for you, but we can't get on the plane, and it can fly back on its own."
"Besides, the players play hard and winning is not easy.
Now that I have time, I must have a good taste of Spanish food and wine.
Isn't it fair to go back after eating and drinking enough?"
"If it doesn't work out, I'll charter the whole plane for me.
We can go back at any time we want.
Do you care?"
Yang Huan said this so boldly that all the players immediately followed suit.
"Master Huan, you are so powerful."
"Yes, Matthew, please eat and drink before leaving."
"That's right, I'll cover it immediately.
Love will wait.
No big deal, let's run back."
"Wow, when you reach the English Channel while running, are you planning to swim across it?"
"Wow, this is a great suggestion, but we have a game on the weekend, how can we fix it?"
"The second team, the team in the Championship, destroyed them every minute."
"Well said, our second team is also quite strong."
Yang Huan raised his hand, and everyone immediately became quiet.
"Quick, go take a shower and change clothes.
Let's go eat, drink and have fun."
"good" The players immediately dispersed.
Mathieu Le Tissier looked at the scattered players with a wry smile on his face.
He couldn't stop them at all.
"Master Huan, this" Yang Huan smiled and patted his shoulder, "Matthew, this is human nature, a combination of work and rest."
After hearing this, Mathieu Le Tissier couldn't say anything else.
After such a hard game, it is also a good thing for the players to have a good rest and relax.

"Besides, things like professional ethics don't depend on discipline or the club's arrangements, but on the players themselves.
A person with professional ethics can still adjust even if he goes to a nightclub the night before the game.
Take good care of your condition and body.”
"A person without professional ethics, even if you tie him to the training base all the time, he will still be in the doldrums, go on the court, and still perfunctory.
This is human nature."
Mathieu Le Tissier really can’t refute.
Even thinking about it:
