142: We lost to Van Dijk, not Tong Yi!(1/2)
In the 31st round of the English Championship, this game is very important for both Crystal Palace and Cardiff City.
This round of competition is about which of them can secure the top spot in the English Championship.
Especially Cardiff City people!
In the past, they couldn't even see Crystal Palace's butt and had no way to catch up. But now, the opportunity is right in front of them. As long as they take one step forward, they can reach the top of the league.
Can Cardiff City people not be excited???
The red dragon is about to ascend!
And today's round of competition is an excellent opportunity for them.
Crystal Palace will face Watford, a strong team in the promotion zone, while Cardiff will face Huddersfield who have no desires and desires. Judging from the above, Cardiff City will definitely win.
Cardiff City are now full of confidence and are looking forward to reaching the top of the league.
Cardiff City people feel that Crystal Palace will definitely not win this game.
Watford is very strong. They are currently ranked fifth in the English Championship with 52 points. Such a team naturally wants to go further. Who doesn't want to reach the top two and get directly promoted to the Premier League?
Qualifications?
Going to the play-offs is a bit risky. If you are not careful, a season's hard work will be wasted.
Therefore, at this time, the Watford people definitely want to reach the top two in the league and ensure promotion.
At this time, Watford head coach Zola also made it clear before the game: "Crystal Palace is indeed very strong. Although the outside world now says that Crystal Palace has problems, I know that Crystal Palace is difficult to deal with. But what?
, we as Watford must win this game, and we are confident of winning it."
Did you see that Zola has already spoken?
Zola also said, "We lost to Crystal Palace in the first round between the two sides. In this game, we must get back on track. We at Watford will win this game!"
Zola is very confident in his team.
The Watford fans were very excited as they seemed to have seen the team defeat Crystal Palace.
On February 9, 2013, he agreed to lead the Crystal Palace players to an away game against Watford.
Amid the positive and crazy cheers of the home fans, Watford's players attacked crazily as soon as they came on. It was obvious that they came here for victory, and Zola was not just talking about it.
To be honest, Watford's offense is still very sharp.
It seems that Zola's training with Watford is very successful.
Tong Yi stood on the sidelines with his arms crossed, very calm, and seemed not to be affected by the competition in the stadium at all.
This made Watford fans feel that Tong Yi was a bit pretentious.
Your goal is in danger, why are you pretending?
Just wait and lose.
Zola stood on the sidelines with a frown and a trace of worry in his heart.
Zola couldn't help but turn around and look
Looking at Tong Yi, his brows furrowed even more as he looked at Tong Yi's relaxed look.
It’s a scam!
Inside the stadium, Watford seemed to be in control of the situation and was attacking crazily. However, it was obvious that Watford did not create any absolute chances, and several shots were basically long shots.
It seems difficult for the Watford people to attack the hinterland of Crystal Palace's penalty area.
Zola is worried!
Suddenly his eyes tightened. Vydra was also frequently trying to attack inside the stadium, entering the penalty area of Crystal Palace. And just as he arranged, he frantically attacked the young center back Van Dijk of Crystal Palace. But he gradually discovered that
, Vidra was suppressed by Van Dijk.
Vydra has almost no benefit from Van Dijk.
hiss!
This Van Dijk has grown a lot!
This is completely different from the first round match between the two sides.
Vydra is a very talented player, and his performance this season is also very good. He is considered an important player in the Watford team. But today, facing the "parallel import" Van Dijk, he actually
Not even a slight advantage.
this……
Zola realized something was wrong, and he immediately came to the sidelines to remind Vydra.
At this time, Vydra on the court was also very surprised. He looked up and stared at Van Dijk in shock. He did not expect that Van Dijk would grow up so fast. When he faced Van Dijk today, he was suppressed and could not breathe.
. Even in terms of his own advantages, he does not have any advantage.
Vidra was very shocked. Van Dijk was so tall, but his body flexibility and speed were not slow at all, and he even suppressed him.
How did this guy grow up so fast?
The Watford fans at the scene also saw it and were very shocked.
Their eyes widened, how could it be possible? Is this the parallel import that Harris mentioned? But why can't our Vydra break through his defense?
Watford fans were shocked.
The commentator on the scene was also quite shocked. Mortensen shouted directly, "Wow, it seems that our Van Dijk is in very good condition today. His performance was very good, and he didn't even give Vydra Videla any chance."
Della can hardly find him in front of him. If he continues to play like this, Watford will be in danger!"
Yes, Watford is dangerous.
Zola immediately signaled Vydra on the court to change positions, stop fighting Van Dijk, and find other breakthroughs.
At this moment, Crystal Palace suddenly stole the ball.
Kante's sudden attack in the midfield caused Abidi in the midfield to be a little confused and failed to control the football well.
Kanter's attack was too much
It happened too quickly, catching him off guard.
"Beautiful steal, Kante's success rate of stealing the ball is too high. The Crystal Palace can achieve such good results this season, largely because of Kante. Tong Yi really picked up Kante.
What a treasure!" Shearer said immediately.
After stealing the ball, Kanter quickly passed the football to the side with a diagonal pass.
Mane on the wing immediately broke through with the ball at high speed. He was really fast and changed direction really quickly.
Watford's defensive players simply couldn't keep up with Mane's rhythm, which frightened Watford fans.
At this moment, Mane, who was cutting inside, suddenly passed the football diagonally to the wing.
The side road is completely empty.
Zhang Linpeng, who came up from the side, didn't stop the ball and directly kicked the ball in.
With a bang, the football quickly flew into the back of Watford's penalty area.
Zaha, who came out of the diagonal stab, quickly stretched out his leg before the opponent's defender rushed forward and stabbed the football directly. The football quickly changed direction and flew towards Watford's goal.
In front of the goal, Almunia reacted quickly and immediately dived sideways.
But he still couldn't touch the football, and the football flew quickly into Watford's goal.
One to zero!
Crystal Palace takes the lead!
Tong Yi was very calm on the sidelines, but Campbell and Vieri behind him were very excited. They jumped up crazily for a moment, and then rushed towards Tong Yi passionately, hugging Tong Yi tightly.
Living.
They were really excited!
In recent games, Crystal Palace has been really depressed. They haven't won for a long time.
Everyone said Crystal Palace was doomed, everyone said Tong Yi was doomed.
But what now?
Did you see? As soon as our boss came back, Crystal Palace won the game! Our Crystal Palace has no problems, and the same boss Tong Yi is also the best head coach. He has no problems.
Harris in the stands looked livid when he saw this and was in a very bad mood.
Damn Chinese bastard, why do you have to go against me?
Why?
Wouldn't it be better for you to accept your fate obediently and obey me?
You damn guy, damn it!
Don't be proud, you just scored a goal. You can't win this game. Your Crystal Palace will definitely lose this game, for sure! Then he immediately turned his head and looked at Zola in the stadium, thinking in his heart
Roaring, "Zola, you should be more forceful, attack, let the team attack!"
