Chapter 460 Premier League, Here We Come!
When the referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the game, the score of 4 to 1 was finally fixed on the electronic scoreboard of Yongming Stadium, which also shocked everyone present.
Is this still a newly-promoted Premier League horse?
Is this really the Saints who sank in League One two years ago?
In just two years, this team already has the strength to compete with the top European giants?
Even beat the tyrannical Barcelona 4-1?
Draw with Manchester United, win Bayern Munich, beat Real Madrid, knock out Juventus...
There is no doubt that the International Champions Cup is full of gold content.
Just for the high appearance fee, the coveted bonus is enough to make all the giant teams do their best.
It was in such a fierce competition that Southampton stood out, defeated each opponent, and won the championship trophy in this warm-up match, which shocked everyone!
The broadcast shots of Yongming Stadium kept switching back and forth, from the elated Southampton players to the Barcelona players who lost the game and looked extremely depressed.
Dissatisfaction was written all over their faces, but they were helpless.
Gerald Peake sat on the turf with almost collapsed buttocks.
It's a pity that the excuse of his great aunt's coming can't convince Vilanova.
Maybe he couldn't say it at all.
What happened in the locker room, who knows?
Anyway, in the second half, Vilanova replaced Puyol with the Argentine player Mascherano, but kept Pique on the court.
As a result, this tragic Barcelona central defender was ravaged by Drogba and was completely inhuman.
Seeing him sitting on the turf, full of grievances and sadness on his face, makes people wonder, how many people have he been given rounds?
Vilanova stood on the sidelines very depressed, looking at Bielsa who had no expression in the distance.
He lost!
Not because of the player, but because of his own incompetence!
For Vilanova, who finally managed to get back from Barcelona's assistant coach and has ambitions to play a big role in Barcelona's coaching position, it is undoubtedly a very painful thing to admit.
But facts are facts!
This game Bielsa beat him with tactics!
In the stands of Yongming Stadium, Yang Huan laughed, watching Peter Kenyon, Ron Gurley and others constantly accepting congratulations from everyone.
It's just a warm-up cup, but it's also a championship, isn't it?
Besides, the bonus income brought by this championship is quite good.
But Yang Huan is even more happy that the team's running-in progress is very smooth!
In the second half, Bielsa made a substantial rotation of the team with a 3-0 lead.
By the 60th minute of the game, the team's starting eleven players had all been replaced.
Including goalkeeper Neuer, they were all replaced by the newly added substitute goalkeeper, Brazil national goalkeeper Julio Cesar.
This is a few days ago, Southampton announced the introduction of players from Inter Milan,
Cesar takes pay cut to join Southampton
The one who was not responsible for the operation of this transfer was Italy's chief agent, Raiola.
Another set of midfield configuration, the combination of Isco, Matic and Pogba, is also very eye-catching.
After Barcelona used Southampton to make a substantial substitution adjustment and regained a goal, Drogba beat Pique's header at the critical moment, which came from a cross from Lavelle Morrison from the right.
But before that, Pogba's long shot from the outside of the penalty area hit Mascherano, which then bounced to the right.
The performance of Hazard on the left is also remarkable, although not as good as Neymar, but also quite good.
The team has been able to run in to this level, and Yang Huan is quite satisfied with the progress.
At the same time, he is also full of confidence in the new season of the Premier League.
Finally, it took two years to get back to the Premier League. If you can't make a big fight, you will be a bit sorry for yourself!
Looking at the chair, the chairs and bosses of the other teams that are also competitors all look grim, which is undoubtedly the greatest appreciation for Southampton.
Yang Huan is now smug and confident, full of confidence and anticipation for the Premier League in the new season!
Premier League, here we come!

…………
Southampton shocked the world by beating Barcelona 4-1 in the International Champions Cup final!
This is not an unpopular team, even in the past two years, countless fans and non-fans are very familiar with this team.
However, no one would have thought that this team was so strong!
In the past season, Southampton has lost two domestic cup championships and one Europa League championship, but everyone knows that domestic cup competitions are not very important, and the Europa League has not encountered too powerful teams. .
But this time is clearly different!
Among the eight teams participating in the International Champions Cup this time, Real Madrid and Barcelona are recognized as the two strongest teams in today's football. Bayern Munich was last season's Champions League winner. How strong is Ferguson's Manchester United? There is no controversy at all.
Juventus has steadily improved its strength in recent years and has risen very fast. There are superstars such as Pirlo and Buffon in the team.
Although Manchester City is a nouveau riche, this team was the Premier League champion last season!
Although Arsenal's strength is not strong, it is also a team with a stable Champions League knockout level, and the top four giants in the Premier League!
Such a cup configuration can no longer be described by luxury.
That's the level of the Champions League!
However, in such a fierce competition, Southampton defeated one strong enemy one after another and won the final championship!
How can this not be shocking? Not surprised?
Overnight, almost all the media around the world were reporting and paying attention to this team, this final, and this cup.
It's unbelievable, isn't it?
Is there anything more dramatic than a newly-promoted Premier League team that has sacked so many giant teams?
As a result, in the newspapers and on the Internet, the eyes of countless fans have swept to Southampton.
But at the same time, a larger group of people is paying attention to another event on the Internet.
That is the third-generation Divine Comedy, the little apple co-created by the goddess Lin Yuner and Uncle Bird Du Ziteng!
Among the more than 70,000 fans at Yongming Stadium, a considerable number of them went for Uncle Bird and Lin Yuner.
The focus of their attention is obviously not on the game. The International Champions Cup is more like a giveaway. Uncle Bird and Lin Yuner are the protagonists they care about the most.
This can be seen from social networks.
In the past month, the International Champions Cup has been red all over the United States, but the most discussed crowd, not the fans.
It's the fanatical fans of Uncle Bird and Lin Yoona.
They are more concerned about the schedule than those die-hard fans. The reason is very simple. Before each game, the organizers will arrange one of Psy and Lin Yuner to sing on the stage, and some even appear at the same time.
And the songs they sing are all new songs in the new album, which can be called the world premiere.
This made fans very enthusiastic, either going to the scene or waiting in front of the TV, hoping to witness this moment.
Coupled with the conscious push by the organizers, the entire event caused a frenzy in the United States.
Also because of this, so James? Murdoch will be so important to the broadcast rights of the next three years.
After more than half a month of preparation and preparation, the finals finally detonated this enthusiasm.
On the Internet, Little Apple just finished singing for less than ten minutes. Uncle Piao, Lin Yuner and Little Apple have successively become the most popular keywords on WeChat, Twitter and Facebook. Thousands of netizens are discussing this topic. song.
When Miracle Media first released Little Apple's song on the Apple Store, in less than half an hour, the song rushed to the top of the Apple chart, which is quite an astonishing number.
In the early morning of the next day, news such as Uncle Piao, Lin Yuner and Little Apple, as well as Southampton and the International Champions Cup, landed on major websites, and the headlines of major newspapers once again triggered a frenzy.
Fox Sports also benefited.
The reason is very simple. For the first time, they used drones during the live broadcast to shoot several full-HD videos of Yongming Stadium from high altitudes, which clearly showed the whole process of Uncle Piao and Lin Yuner's singing, as well as the game. some fragments.
As soon as these videos landed on the Internet, they were immediately pushed to the top of Youtu Turtle's popular list by crazy fans.
But if it's just that, it's nothing.
On the third day, Miracle Media held a press conference in Miami to announce the fruitful results of the first International Champions Cup.
First, Manchester United and General Motors' Chevrolet brand reached a sponsorship agreement, a six-year contract worth a total of 300 million pounds, converted to 560 million US dollars.
It was followed by Southampton, which announced that American Casual Wear became the official partner of the Saints for five years, with a total amount of up to 30 million pounds, or 6 million pounds a year.
At the same time, the well-known chip company Intel also sponsors the advertisement on the inside of Southampton's jersey. In the next five years, Southampton will put Intel's logo on the inside of the jersey, as well as its logo.
To this end, Intel will pay a total of £25 million in sponsorship fees to Southampton.
Apple has also announced that it will be Southampton's Official Consumer Electronics Partner for a five-year period of up to £25 million, with a small portion of the payment to be made through Apple's electronic devices.
The famous MetLife in the United States also announced that it will sponsor the advertising space on the left and right hem of the Southampton jersey with a total value of 50 million pounds over five years. At the same time, this is also an exclusive sponsorship. , the only insurance company with Southampton trademark and star image rights license.
The latter will also launch a series of products for the Saints and the Southampton star.
Following Southampton, Miracle Media also announced that Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Arsenal all signed sponsorship contracts during the International Champions Cup, including giant companies like Microsoft.
At the end of the press conference, Sun Yue said that the first International Champions Cup not only achieved great success in the operation of the competition, but also achieved shocking achievements in the business operation.
"We have signed ten sponsorship contracts for participating teams with a total value of more than £500 million, and there are more than a dozen contracts that are currently being followed up and are expected to be signed in the near future!"
This suddenly shocked the whole world!
Everyone knows that Americans are rich, but who would have thought that American companies would be so rich!
In more than half a month, a contract worth 500 million pounds was signed!
This is simply incredible!
As soon as the news came back to Europe, almost the whole of Europe was shocked!
When Europe encountered the European debt crisis and the income of countless teams dropped sharply, the big gold mine of the United States suddenly appeared in front of everyone, glittering and dazzling.
For a time, the International Champions Cup is no longer a warm-up cup in the eyes of everyone.
It has turned into a money printing machine and the best platform for all European teams to land in the US market!
In less than a day, almost all the calls to Miracle Media's London headquarters office were blown up by the European professional teams who heard the news.
All teams are asking one thing, will it be held next year? Expand the army? Still missing a team?
That grand occasion once again triggered a hype in the media around the world.
At the same time, it also made the seven giant teams who have signed five-year contracts to participate in the competition secretly happy.
At least I don't have to break the head like other teams, right?
But there are also some teams who regret that their bowels are green!
Especially Milan's Galliani and Chelsea's Roman Abramovich.
Why do others go to the United States to participate in the competition, and we also go to the United States to participate in the competition.
More importantly, they plan to go again next year, what about themselves?
Whether the North American Invitational will be held next year is still unknown!
It's depressing enough to think about it. Why did you turn down Miracle Media in the first place?
Okay now, people are making a name for themselves. Even if you come to the door and post it, I am afraid they may not care about you!
The International Champions Cup is on fire now, is there still a team missing from you?
A London-area newspaper broke the news that Abramovich scolded Marina Granovskia and Bruce Buck at Stamford Bridge.
After Galliani returned to Milan, he was called by Berlusconi and criticized.
Barbara even took the opportunity to demand more power from him, further weakening Galliani's influence in the Rossoneri.
But none of these pieces of news attracted much attention from fans and the media.
The reason, of course, is that there is a lot of news that deserves their attention!
