The Crystal Palace fans naturally attached great importance to this game, but they did not give the Evertonians any good looks. Before the game even started, the Crystal Palace fans roared crazily and criticized the Everton fans.
Let's give them a blow.
This is our home stadium, Tongyi Stadium!
Here today, our Crystal Palace must win.
And in the past, Evertonians were more ruthless when they went to away games. Therefore, today the Crystal Palace fans really would not give Campbell any face. There were even some extreme Crystal Palace fans who even scolded Campbell, and even scolded him even more harshly.
To put it bluntly, Campbell is a traitor and a villain!
These people sprayed Campbell all over his body.
When Campbell just walked into the Tongyi Stadium, these fans were roaring and cursing wildly, and Campbell's face darkened at that time. However, Campbell did not explode. He could understand the Crystal Palace fans.
Tong Yi came over, patted Campbell on the shoulder, and said lightly, "Don't worry, these are nothing to you who are well-informed, right?"
Campbell nodded slightly, indicating that this was indeed the case.
What scenes did he not see when he was at Arsenal? These were all small scenes.
Campbell looked at Tong Yi gratefully and said, "Thank you, teacher! But I'm sorry, I still have to take away the victory in this game!"
Tong Yi chuckled and said, "Really?"
Campbell nodded firmly and said, "Of course!"
Tong Yi nodded and said, "Then I'll wait and see! I hope Everton won't disappoint me!"
After saying that, Tong Yi patted Campbell on the shoulder again, then immediately turned around and walked towards his stand.
Tong Yi can feel Campbell's confidence, but to be honest, he is really not optimistic about Everton. Everton's recent results are actually not very good, and they have not finished running in. How can they compete with Everton?
Are you competing with Crystal Palace, which is now at its peak? There is no chance at all!
In the last round of the game, Everton played a relatively good game. After falling behind by two goals, they managed to reverse Watford with three goals in a row. After this game, Everton's morale
Unfortunately, there was a half-month break and the international match day came, so the morale of the Evertonians was not as good as it was then.
Moreover, although Everton reversed 3-2 in that game, it also showed that Everton had a big problem, otherwise it would not have been behind 0-2.
Can Everton really threaten Crystal Palace in this game?
To be honest, Tong Yi doesn't think so.
Even the Crystal Palace fans at the scene did not think so. They felt that Evertonians did not have such strength. Moreover, some media reporters in the stands were not very optimistic about the Everton team. Crystal Palace is really too strong this season. If
Including last season, Crystal Palace is currently unbeaten in 50 games and has won 18 consecutive games!
Is this result enough to be proud of the Premier League?
As far as the current Crystal Palace is concerned, they are really strong, and Everton really has no chance to defeat Crystal Palace.
At least at this time, there are not many people who think Everton can beat Crystal Palace. Even Everton’s own fans and Webster in the stands. Of course, there are some people who may support Everton, that is
People who are looking forward to an upset.
To be honest, most people think that Everton has little chance of being upset in this game.
Crystal Palace must win this game.
And currently, the Crystal Palace players are also very confident, and they don't think the Evertonians will have a chance.
Of course, they will not underestimate Evertonians.
Because before the game, Tong Yi had emphasized it to them many times. Firstly, Everton is indeed showing signs of improvement. They just won the last round of the game and their morale is high. Secondly, Everton
Their head coach is Campbell, who is very familiar with their Crystal Palace team.
With these two points in mind, Crystal Palace cannot underestimate the Everton team.
Especially the second point.
Therefore, the Crystal Palace players really don't dare to underestimate Everton.
Also, Everton's lineup is actually quite good, at the mid-level level of the Premier League. It is even possible to qualify for the European competition. The current results are not a reflection of their true strength. No one knows.
When will Fulton break out and regain its due strength and level?
It's hard to say that in this game against Crystal Palace, the Evertonians found their form.
Therefore, Crystal Palace still needs to be on guard.
Crystal Palace naturally takes this game seriously.
At this time, the referee Anthony Taylor directly blew the whistle to start the game.
The first team to kick off was the Crystal Palace team. Naturally, the Crystal Palace team attacked fiercely from the start.
De Bruyne in the midfield sent the football directly to Gnabry on the wing with a long diagonal pass. As soon as Gnabry received the ball, the opposite full-back Kenny immediately pounced on him and intercepted the ball.
In front of Gnabry. His positioning was very particular. He directly blocked Gnabry's cutting line, and his body slowly moved towards Gnabry, without any interference.
The space and distance for Gnabry to change direction and break through.
Gnabry did not force a breakthrough at this time, but quickly pulled the football back, and then quickly pushed the football back to De Bruyne. And he immediately turned around and rushed towards the bottom line quickly.
It looked like a one-two was coming, and Kenny immediately turned around and quickly chased Gnabry.
Unexpectedly, De Bruyne still pushed the football to the left, but instead of passing it to Gnabry who was advancing forward, he passed the ball behind Gnabry.
Because Cancelo has already rushed forward.
The rushing Cancelo certainly did not stop the ball, nor did he give Kenny a chance to turn around and rush to defend. He immediately made a pass and quickly passed the football into Everton's penalty area. .??
.
Suddenly, Everton fans were terrified, it was dangerous!
Campbell on the sidelines was very angry and roared loudly at Everton's defensive players, especially Lennon on the wing. At this time, you should retreat and stick to Cancelo. How did you miss him?
?
It is really dangerous for this ball to leak!
Everton fans became nervous and stared at Ronaldo in the stadium.
Yes, Crystal Palace center Ronaldo rushed forward quickly, jumped up high, and slammed his head towards the flying football. Keane in front of him was a bit passive, although he was also the first.
Time jumped up, but it was obvious that his jumping height could not be compared with Ronaldo.
It's over, Everton fans are heartbroken.
With a bang, Ronaldo overpowered Keane and hit the football hard. The football shot quickly towards the Everton goal.
The ball was really fast and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal.
The Crystal Palace fans jumped up excitedly and waved their arms excitedly to celebrate the goal.
With a snap, Pickford jumped out and lifted the football over the baseline with one palm.
The cheers of the Crystal Palace fans at the scene were stagnant, and they could not make any sound for a moment. Pickford made a superb save for this goal. He is worthy of being England's national goalkeeper, and he has something.
Tong Yi kept shaking his head. This goal was indeed a bit unlucky, otherwise it would have been a goal!
Who could have known that Pickford would burst out with such powerful energy at this moment and make a great save? Originally, Tong Yi thought that this goal would definitely be scored.
It's a pity, this is really a pity.
However, this goal gave the Evertonians a disincentive. Those Everton fans who were clamoring before the game should be able to recognize the reality, right? In this Crystal Palace, you Everton are really not good at this.
You, Everton, have no chance in this game. Crystal Palace will definitely win this game.
Bang bang bang!
Tong Yi gave applause to the Crystal Palace players in the stadium. They played well. If they continue to play like this, Crystal Palace will definitely win this game. Tong Yi is very confident!
r> Corner kick, Crystal Palace got a corner kick opportunity.
