April 26, 2015, Selhurst Park, South London, England.
sunny!
Today, in the 34th round of the 2014-2015 Premier League season, the home game between Crystal Palace and Hull City was held here. The venue was full of seats. Crystal Palace fans filled the home court. Only a thousand people came from Hull City.
No, this is their expeditionary force.
To be honest, these Expeditionary Force fans in Hull City are not weak at all in terms of momentum.
It can be seen that they are all veterans who have experienced many battles.
Even in the face of tens of thousands of Crystal Palace fans, Selhurst Park can still hear their voices.
Today's game is also very important for them.
This is one of their key battles to avoid relegation.
Hull City must win this game! .??.
At least, that's what Bruce stood on the sidelines and the Hull City fans at the scene thought.
Also, the Chelsea fans in front of the TV think so too.
Chelsea people also hope that Crystal Palace will lose, and they even hope that Crystal Palace will lose in all subsequent games. Only in this way can Chelsea win the Premier League championship this season.
At this time, Chelsea fans were doing the same thing, hoping that Crystal Palace would lose, and Tong Yi also hoped that Chelsea would win.
Currently, Chelsea is facing Arsenal away from home at the Emirates Stadium. This is a London derby!
Chelsea not only want to win the London Derby and occupy the top spot as the King of London. They also want to get three points, reverse Crystal Palace and top the Premier League.
And Chelsea think this is their golden opportunity.
Because, after this round of games, Chelsea will face Crystal Palace directly in the next round, and it will be at home.
If Chelsea win both rounds, Chelsea will surely top the Premier League and win the Premier League championship this season.
Now, Chelsea people can't wait any longer.
Chelsea people also believe that their Chelsea team has the ability to defeat Arsenal and Crystal Palace one after another. Their Chelsea team will rely on the victory of these two games to tell the world that Chelsea is the king of London!
Chelsea are the boss in London!
Before this game, Chelsea's head coach Mourinho said very seriously, "Now the league has reached the most critical moment, and we at Chelsea are ready! No matter who our opponent is, we only have one
The goal is to win! Chelsea is bound to win the Premier League championship in this league. Neither Arsenal nor Crystal Palace can stop us from moving forward!"
Did you see that, this is Mourinho’s domineering attitude.
Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger said this in front of media reporters, "Although Arsenal has almost no chance of winning the Premier League title this season. But we have the honor and status to defend the King of London. This game
We at Arsenal will definitely go all out for the game
, no one can defeat us easily. We, Arsenal, are the kings of London!"
Did you see that Wenger is equally domineering!
They all care very much about the title of London Talkers!
Of course, Tong Yi said the same thing before the game.
Therefore, in the eyes of media reporters and fans, this season's Premier League is the battle of the kings in London.
This season the teams from London have really taken over the Premier League.
Both the Manchester duo and the Liverpool duo were subdued.
Next, they want to see who is the real talker in London.
The next two rounds of competition are the most critical.
Currently, countless fans and media reporters are paying attention to these two games at the same time, because these two games are related to the ownership of the Premier League championship this season.
These two games kick off at the same time today!
Crystal Palace's match against Hull City has almost begun. Today's starting lineups for both sides are as follows
Home team Crystal Palace, head coach Tong Yi, formation 4213
edouard
Back four from left to right Robertson, Laporte, Van Dijk and Carvajal
Double defensive midfielder Paulinho and Kante
Single attacking midfielder De Bruyne
The front three from left to right Salah, Ignacio and Mane
Visiting team Hull City, head coach Bruce, formation 352
goalkeeper steve harper
Back three from left to right McShane, Michael Dawson and James Chester
The five midfielders from left to right are Brady, Quinn, Hudders, Livermore and Mohammadi
Double forward Aluko and Ndoye
Seeing this lineup, it is obvious that Hull City should focus on defensive counterattacks.
When attacking, Hull City's score was 352, or even 334. The two wing-backs Brady and Mohammadi would press on like crazy. Hull City's people must have a bigger guard of honor towards the two.
Of course, when defending, it is 532.
However, in Tong Yi's view, the most threatening person to Hull City is their forward Ndoye.
This guy is still very capable, has good speed, and his shooting skills are also good.
Of course, his physical confrontation ability is also good.
In counterattack, he is really a good sharp knife.
When counterattacking, his speed and shooting skills are very threatening. Even if a defensive player resists him, he can use his speed and physical confrontation ability to protect the ball and complete the shot.
So, this is the key person for Hull City people
things.
Ndoye is also indispensable for Hull City's current results this season.
After all, Ndoye is a reinforcement player introduced by Hull City from Lokomotiv Moscow in this winter transfer. So far, he has scored 3 goals and provided 4 assists for Hull City.
Now the people of Hull still really respect him with honor.
Before the game, Tong Yi reminded the Crystal Palace defensive players to pay attention to defending Ndoye. This guy is a good player in counterattacks, and the Crystal Palace players should defend him very closely.
. ??
At this moment, the referee blew the whistle to start the game.
The home team Crystal Palace kicked off first. Crystal Palace played very proactively in this game.
This is a game they must win. This is an important game to widen the gap between them and Chelsea. It will also be their best chance to reverse the decline. Crystal Palace must win this game.
Therefore, from the beginning, Crystal Palace pressed like crazy and pressed high.
Hull City's formation is extremely compressed. Let alone 532, it is almost compressed to 1000.
Even Ndoye was forced back to defend.
This is the strength gap between Hull City and Crystal Palace, and there is no way around it.
The media reporters at the scene frowned when they saw this. It seemed that the Hull City people basically had no chance in this game. The Chelsea fans in front of the TV were very disappointed. Before the game, they were against Hull City.
You had high hopes. Why, did you completely wither in the competition?
Chelsea fans are very angry and very angry.
It seems that Chelsea people can only rely on themselves!
Crystal Palace had an absolute advantage in the stadium. De Bruyne, Salah and Mane were all very active, especially De Bruyne. He sent exquisite through balls through Hull City's goal one after another during the game.
He defended, and he also got many long-range shooting opportunities, and he was very close to scoring a goal, just a hair's breadth away.
Hull City fans can't stand it anymore, it's too dangerous and cruel.
The people from Hull City didn't even have the chance to attack, let alone attack. They were completely suppressed and blasted.
At this time, almost everyone felt that the Hull City people had no chance of winning this game. Hull City would definitely lose this game!
Of course, De Bruyne and others inside the stadium also think so.
Tong Yi thought the same thing when he looked at the stadium, but he still reminded the Crystal Palace players to pay attention to defense!
But the Crystal Palace people, who had been unable to attack for a long time, didn't pay much attention and were all attacking crazily.
At this time, in the 47th minute of the first half, Hull City launched a quick counterattack. Dawson, who had a long arc, passed the ball directly and found Deen in front of the center line.
Doye Ndoye went directly to the meeting alone, faced the attacking Edward, and sent the football into the Crystal Palace goal with a kick.
Hull City, who had been besieged for the entire half, broke the deadlock in the last minute of overtime in the last eight games.
Sure enough, Edouard's goal line skills are superb, but his attack is indeed a bit inferior.
Seeing this, Tong Yi's whole face turned ugly.
This is indeed a very uncomfortable point for the Crystal Palace people. They were besieged for the entire first half without scoring a goal. Instead, the Hull City people succeeded in a sneak attack at the last moment. It is really frustrating.
Tong Yi kept shaking his head, there was nothing he could do about this ball.
Their luck was really bad. In this half of the game, they completed 18 shots in total, 12 of which were within the goal frame. None of them scored. This is really unjustifiable.
Hull City scored with only one shot in the first half of the game. This was really unlucky.
Crystal Palace fans and players were naturally dissatisfied.
At the beginning of the second half of the game, Crystal Palace continued to attack fiercely, pressing forward from all fronts, besieging Hull City's goal. Obviously they wanted to win this game and get three points. Hull City retreated from all fronts.
, the purpose is very clear, which is to maintain this one-goal advantage.
Therefore, at this time, Hull City really played in a 1,000 formation, just using people to fight.
Hull City people are fighting for survival now. They want to avoid relegation. They don't care whether the scene looks good or not. They can do anything if they can get three points!
Therefore, at this time, Hull City, united as one, built a Great Wall of flesh and blood. Even if the Crystal Palace people were united and attacked like crazy, it was still difficult to break through the Hull City team's goal. On the pitch, Hull City blocked the bullet holes with their bodies on numerous occasions.
It’s not uncommon to see that the people of Hull really put their lives on the line.
The performance of the Hull City people made the Chelsea people very excited and excited. At this time, they were like Hull City fans.
To be honest, in their opinion, the Hull City people played better than the Chelsea people in this game.
Because in another game, the score between Chelsea and Arsenal is still zero to zero, and Chelsea seems to be passive. This is their perfect opportunity, but now it seems that they are a little unable to grasp it!
Chelsea fans are anxious to death. Chelsea people, can you show some backbone and strength? Kill Arsenal and reach the top of the Premier League! Now Hull City has put down the most difficult task.
Huan has done it for you, so don’t let yourself fall behind!
Come on Chelsea, come on Hull City!
Tong Yi frowned on the sidelines. The direction of the game was wrong. The second half of the game seemed to be a reversal of the first half. The second half of the game only lasted 15 minutes, and they had already completed 6 shots, but still
Didn't score a goal, this...
This...is not right!
