Toot!
With the referee's whistle, the game officially started.
Everyone was surprised when the game started.
Because Norwich played more proactively than Crystal Palace, even at the beginning, newly promoted Norwich suppressed Crystal Palace.
In the 2nd minute of the game, Norwich midfielder Dorrance received a pass from teammate Howson on the left side of the penalty area, and suddenly pulled out the left corner and shot a cold arrow. .??.
The football shot out quickly and flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal.
This thunderous long-range shot scared the people of Crystal Palace into cold sweats, and even Campbell opened his mouth in shock.
Danger!
When the sharp-eyed football was about to fly into the goal, a big hand covered the sky and blocked the upper corner of the goal.
With a snap, the football hit this hand and bounced off the baseline.
It's really too dangerous.
Commentators Mortensen and Neville were a little surprised. They didn't expect that newly promoted Norwich City would play so fiercely!
Two minutes later, Norwich launched another attack, and Howson's through ball actually penetrated the Crystal Palace defense.
Grabban, who penetrated forward, received the ball for a single shot!
This makes Crystal Palace fans sweat!
Danger!
Fortunately, the linesman and the referee raised their hands almost at the same time, indicating that Grabban was offside. Otherwise, the ball would have been a one-shot, and Crystal Palace would have been in danger of conceding the ball!
A minute later, Tettei, who was pressing forward, was fouled by Casemiro. Norwich got a direct free kick from a good position. The Crystal Palace fans even breathed hard.
Fortunately, the opponent's Johnson's shot went directly over the crossbar.
To be honest, the start of this game really exceeded everyone's expectations.
Taking advantage of the advantage of their home court, Norwich actually overwhelmed last season's Premier League runner-up Crystal Palace and attacked furiously, creating many opportunities. If it weren't for the good luck of the Crystal Palace people, they would have fallen behind by this time.
This leaves no doubt as to who is the newly promoted team and who was the runner-up in the Premier League last season?
What a terrible performance from Crystal Palace!
Even at this time, many fans, media reporters, and even football celebrities are suspicious of Campbell. It seems that this Campbell is still useless. He can't even beat a team like Norwich. How can you still
What can you do? Do you want to coach in the English League Two?
Having said that, Campbell's performance in these few minutes is really disappointing.
However, Tong Yi didn't care in front of the TV. After all, the game had just begun. Although the start was not good, it was still normal. After all, this was the first game of the new season, and this was not a good start for the "newcomer" Campbell.
Since this is another game that cannot be lost, it is inevitable that he will be under greater pressure.
It will be fine once Campbell and the Crystal Palace players stabilize as the game progresses.
Tong Yi still believes that Campbell can win this game.
However, the next direction of the game really made the Crystal Palace fans extremely nervous.
Five minutes later, Horahan won another free kick opportunity for Norwich. Grabban's free kick shot was of very high quality. The sharp-eyed football was about to fly into the goal. Alisson stood up again.
He came out, soared into the air, and lifted the football over the bottom line.
To be honest, from the beginning of the game until now, Alisson has been the most normal person in Crystal Palace!
Without Alisson, Crystal Palace's goal would have been smashed!
At this time, Campbell immediately came to the sidelines and signaled the Crystal Palace players to stabilize, and also signaled the midfield players to strengthen their control of the ball and not give the ball to the Norwich people so quickly.
But then, Norwich really seemed to have completely controlled the situation.
The game only lasted 15 minutes, and they had already completed 6 shots. Their performance was very amazing. If it hadn't been for Alisson...
Yes, Crystal Palace fans can hardly stand it anymore!
The Crystal Palace's first shot of the game came in the 29th minute. The previous game was completely suppressed by Norwich. More importantly, in this half hour,
Crystal Palace only committed 11 fouls, which is really a bit abnormal.
This also makes football celebrities even less optimistic about Campbell.
You, Campbell, led the Premier League runner-up team and even promoted Norwich City to perform like this. How can you compete with Tottenham, Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal and other teams in the future? Isn't this giving away points?
There are even football legends who believe that Campbell is likely to lead Crystal Palace to a six-game losing streak in the Premier League, thereby completely losing the opportunity for Crystal Palace to compete for the Premier League championship.
Judging from this game, Campbell was really bad.
However, at this time, Campbell didn't think about this at all. He came to the sidelines, gradually forgot all the miscellaneous things, and fully devoted himself to the game. At this time, he truly relaxed completely and watched.
As he watched the game in the stadium, he could see it more clearly and saw many problems.
He constantly directs and dispatches from the sidelines, and more importantly, regulates the emotions of the Crystal Palace players.
To be honest, it was quite successful.
Norwich's offense was getting closer and closer to the Crystal Palace goal, and even Norwich's offensive players were pinned down in the half and unable to get out.
High pressure!
Crystal Palace's special skills finally came out. The defensive rhythm and intensity of the game seemed to have increased by two or three levels in an instant. Suddenly, Norwich was a little overwhelmed!
If the rhythm at the beginning of the game was Norwich's most comfortable and familiar rhythm, then the current rhythm is one that Norwich cannot parry. They...can't keep up at all!
The pace is really too fast, and the pressure given to them by the Crystal Palace people is really too strong.
Before, they were able to calmly adjust when receiving the ball and find the most suitable and reasonable route for the ball. But now, before they receive the ball, the opponent's defensive players are approaching, and not just one person is approaching, but
It's the team as a whole that not only prevents you from catching the ball comfortably, but also blocks your passing route.
Norwich's players simply didn't have any space to play the ball forward.
Moreover, these players have never encountered such an intense game. Their physical fitness and breathing rhythm cannot keep up. They are exhausted from running around, and their physical fitness is exhausted faster than the Crystal Palace people!
Lost the city and lost the land, but the next thing is coming again!
The Norwich people are now almost pinned near their penalty area and unable to get out.
Seeing this, the fans and media reporters at the scene were all shocked. All the famous football players could not help but turn their heads and look at each other, unable to hide the shock in their eyes.
This Campbell... seems to have something!
After experiencing the initial nervousness and confusion, he gradually calmed down and showed off his abilities.
The Crystal Palace unexpectedly reversed the situation.
Now Crystal Palace has an absolute advantage, and Norwich's goal is in danger!
It seems that Campbell's adaptability is quite strong. After adapting to the game, he relaxed his hands and performed well. If he is like this in subsequent games, maybe Crystal Palace can still play this season.
Campbell doesn't need to win all the first six rounds. As long as he can occasionally win three games, Crystal Palace still has a chance to win the Premier League championship this season.
So, Campbell, you have to work hard!
At this moment, Crystal Palace's high pressure finally paid off.
De Bruyne directly stole the football from the feet of the opponent's midfielder Te Taiyi at the front of the penalty area.
Te Taiyi was very annoyed. This ball was obviously passed by Horahan like a scapegoat. Under Kante's crazy pressing, he took a panicked shot and passed the football to Te Taiyi, but Te Taiyi's side
Before he could catch the football, it was successfully intercepted by De Bruyne, who was well prepared.
After stealing the ball, Norwich's defense tightened significantly, and center back Martin immediately stepped forward.
Because they all know how powerful De Bruyne's long-range shots are!
They absolutely cannot give De Bruyne a chance to take a long shot.
But just as he rushed out, De Bruyne stabbed the football forward very covertly, and the football quickly rolled past Martin's crotch and directly behind him.
r>
In the penalty area, Ignacio used his strong body to directly hold the opponent's black and hard center back Basson.
This guy Basson is very strong, and he is good at strength and confrontation with central defenders. But after facing Ignacio, Basson found that the strength and confrontation he was proud of had no effect, no matter how he used his attack
He couldn't understand Ignacio, he was shocked.
incredible!
With a boom, Ignacio, who was carrying Bassoon, stopped the ball and gently moved the ball horizontally, then swung his leg and hit the football with hatred, and the football shot quickly towards the lower right corner of the goal.
The speed of the ball was so fast that Rudy in front of the goal had no power to parry and could only watch the football fly into the goal.
One to zero!
In the 41st minute of this game, the deadlock was finally broken, and it was the visiting team Crystal Palace who scored.
The Norwich fans in the stands were stunned!
unbelievable!
Haven't they always had the advantage? Aren't they about to score the Crystal Palace goal? Why did they lose the ball in the blink of an eye? Norwich fans don't understand!
And soon something happened that they didn't understand.
In the 17th minute of the second half, Casemiro in the midfield made a diagonal pass to the wing. Salah, who advanced from the wing, received the ball, pretended to cut in, and passed directly down the bottom. Ignacio Gao in the center
Gao Gao jumped up and overpowered Basson to head the ball back. Mane, who came forward from behind, volleyed the ball without stopping, and fiercely drove the football into the Norwich goal.
Two to zero!
Seeing this, Mortensen said, "After the Crystal Palace people got over the initial panic period and the game entered the familiar fast pace of Crystal Palace, Norwich had actually lost! Norwich didn't adapt at all.
If the game rhythm of Crystal Palace was exceeded, they would be completely overwhelmed! Campbell is really good at this point, and Norwich were fooled!"
Obviously, Norwich coach Neil also saw it, but it was too late!
And Crystal Palace's offense is not over yet.
In the 34th minute of the second half, Crystal Palace once again launched a wonderful attack. In the penalty area, Ignacio held Basson behind him with his body, stopped Mane's diagonal pass with his chest, and then easily passed the football
In response, De Bruyne, who followed up, shot directly with his legs and sent the football into Norwich's goal, three to zero!
This is not over yet!
In the 42nd minute of the second half, Crystal Palace winger Carvajal made a cross, and Ignacio headed the ball again. Substitute Perisic volleyed the ball into the Norwich goal.
Four to zero!
Crystal Palace massacred Norwich City away from home and got off to a good start in the 2015-2016 Premier League season!
Campbell also proved to the world that he can do it!
