October 17, 2015, Selhurst Park Stadium, South London, England, the weather was cloudy and the temperature was 14C.
Today's weather is not particularly good.
Especially since this game was played in the evening, the temperature had already begun to cool down.
It was actually a bit foggy here in London, so it was worthy of its name as the Fog City.
The weather is a bit cold.
However, this did not stop the passion of the Crystal Palace fans. They still came to the scene to support their home team Crystal Palace and cheer for their team! Because today, their team is going to defeat the arrogant Bilic here.
!
Crystal Palace fans are looking forward to it with great anticipation.
Another reason is that the Premier League has also experienced a short offseason.
The international match day came after the last round of games, and the Premier League was suspended for half a month. Now that the Premier League is back, the Crystal Palace fans are naturally eager to rush into the stadium to help the team cheer.
During this international match day, Ignacio performed very well.
During this international match day, the England and England national team ushered in two preliminaries for the 2016 European Cup. They first defeated Estonia 4-0 at home, and then defeated Lithuania 5-0 away. In these two games, Crystal Palace’s
Ignacio replaced Harry Kane in the starting position and scored 5 goals in two games, which made the English fans very happy!
Sure enough, Ignacio has exploded this season!
This also makes more fans and media reporters feel that Ignacio is more suitable than Kane to serve as the main center of the England national team.
This performance also made Tong Yi very satisfied.
Naturally, it makes Crystal Palace fans even more satisfied.
Of course, some media reporters said that before these two games, the England national team had already secured first place in the group and directly advanced to the main stage of the 2016 European Cup. The results of these two games have no impact and are not important.
In the game, England started Ignacio at this time not to replace Kane, but to let Ignacio find his form.
In their view, Kane should still be the main center forward of the England national team.
These two groups are really at odds with each other and are already at each other's throats.
Ignacio and Kane seem to have a good relationship. They have been photographed talking and laughing many times by reporters. This really left many people speechless. Fans of these two people have already
They are so close to each other that they are incompatible with each other, but these two people are still so close and joking?
Will the fans of these two people be blinded when they see these reports, and they will also shout, "I want to fight to the death, why did your Majesty surrender first?"
To be honest, Tong Yi also feels that the reaction of these fans is really a bit excessive.
They should provide a more relaxed environment for these two people, which is most beneficial to their growth and competition.
However, these fans have obviously taken the initiative.
I can't stop it.
Tong Yi didn't pay attention to these things anymore. He just reminded Ignacio not to care about what these people said, just play his own football well and show his ability to achieve better results. When the time comes, England's head coach
You will naturally make the right choice.
It's really useless for these fans to fight each other!
Ignacio also nodded slightly to express his understanding.
Of course, at this time, Crystal Palace fans are also a little worried!
After all, during this international match day, Ignacio really didn't rest for a minute. He was either playing the game or on the way to the game. Ignacio must be very tired now. In this game, Ignacio
Nasio shouldn't be starting, right?
Yes, Kane didn't play a minute on this international break, while Ignacio played all the games and was tired from long distances.
To be honest, Tong Yi felt a little distressed when Ignacio flew back.
When you use our center like this, aren't you afraid of injuring him?
Before this game, Delvetri predicted that Ignacio would not be in the starting lineup for this game. This is one of the reasons why he believed that Crystal Palace would lose!
Your Crystal Palace has been poisoned by the FIFA virus, but West Ham United has not. The performance of West Ham United in this game will definitely be better than that of your Crystal Palace.
West Ham United must win this game!
Before the game, Bilic said in front of the media reporters, "Now our West Ham United are in very good condition. My players have adjusted their condition to the best. In this game, I think our West Ham United are in very good condition."
Manchester United will definitely win, I have this confidence!"
In his opinion, Crystal Palace must be suffering from the FIFA virus!
Because he used to be the absolute main force of the Croatian national team, and he also had the experience of being poisoned by the FIFA virus. He is very aware of the current situation of Crystal Palace. In this game, West Ham United have a great chance of winning!
Yes, Bilic has analyzed it in detail and in many aspects.
He is not the kind of person who is arrogant for no reason. To be honest, he is very cautious, but he just acts a little arrogant. He does not underestimate the Crystal Palace, he has studied the situation of the Crystal Palace in detail. He
He believed that West Ham United had a very good chance of winning this game, so he was so confident and dared to say such a thing.
He is no fool than Bilic!
If he was a fool, it would be impossible for him to become the head coach of the Croatian national team at such a young age and lead the team with good results. It is also impossible for him to accept West Ham United and defeat so many powerful enemies and win such a good job.
score.
When he said they could win, he naturally had a certain degree of confidence and basis.
Of course, Tong Yi
Bilic is not being underestimated here either!
There is really something about Bilic, and his coaching style is really wild and passionate. His contagiousness is very strong, and he can infect the players on the sidelines and burst out with super impact.
And the temperament of never giving up or giving up.
To be honest, such an opponent is difficult to deal with.
This game is indeed a difficult game for Crystal Palace.
This guy Delvistri was actually right.
It is really possible for Crystal Palace to lose this game, because West Ham United is indeed capable.
Tong Yi also has some impressions of West Ham United this season, because they have some talented players, such as Moses and Payet. Moreover, West Ham United's results this season are also very good.
Yes, they not only reached the quarter-finals in the FA Cup, but even almost defeated Manchester United to advance to the semi-finals, they also finished seventh in the Premier League and qualified for the Europa League next season.
.
Therefore, this team really cannot be underestimated.
Tong Yi is very serious.
Moreover, in the locker room before the game, Tong Yi reminded his players that they must be careful about this opponent, treat the team seriously, and devote themselves to it, and they will never lose to their opponent in this game.
The Crystal Palace players are very active and serious at this time.
They will definitely go all out in this game.
Today, the starting lineups of both sides are as follows
Home team Crystal Palace head coach Tong Yi, formation 4213
Alisson
Back four from left to right: Alonso, Rudiger, Van Dijk and Cancelo
Double defensive midfielder Witsel and Kante
Single attacking midfielder De Bruyne
The front three from left to right Asensio, Balotelli and Mane
Visiting team West Ham United, head coach Bilic, formation 4231
goalkeeper adrien
Back four from left to right Cresswell, Collins, Tomkinson and Jenkinson
Double midfielder Noble and Kouyate
Three midfielders from left to right: Payet, Lanzini and Moses
Lone forward Diafa Sakho
This is the starting lineup of both sides today, but it is obvious that the changes on the Crystal Palace side are indeed very big. As Bilic said before the game, many of the main players on the Crystal Palace side in this game were infected by the FIFA virus.
They were so tortured that they were not able to get a starting game, but sat on the bench.
Did you see that Ignacio, who performed very well in the England national team, did not appear in the starting lineup today and sat directly on the bench?
And Salah didn't even make the squad, sitting directly in the stands.
Seeing this, Bilic smiled slightly. He felt that this
In the game, West Ham United have a very good chance of winning.
When Delvestri in the press box saw the Crystal Palace lineup, he also felt that West Ham United was safe in this game and West Ham United would definitely win!
Of course, when the Crystal Palace fans in the stands saw the starting lineup, their momentum instantly weakened by three points.
Crystal Palace's starting lineup is really half main force and half substitute. This is very different from before. Crystal Palace fans lack confidence when they see this lineup.
However, the Crystal Palace fans cheered the Crystal Palace players even louder. They are all boys who believe in their team. Even if we are not the full lineup, our Crystal Palace can easily defeat you, West Ham United.
Team's.
Crystal Palace, come on!
Tong Yi stood on the sidelines looking relatively relaxed, as if he wasn't worried at all.
When Delvistri saw Tong Yi's expression, he sneered slightly, "Tong Yi, just pretend. After this game is over, how can you still pretend? In this game, your Crystal Palace will lose!"
beep!
At this moment, the referee of this game immediately blew the whistle to start the game.
The first to kick off was the visiting team West Ham United. West Ham United seemed to know that Crystal Palace would press high when they came up, so they increased the intensity of their attack. As soon as the game started, they pressed the entire half of Crystal Palace. It seemed that
It's about competing with Crystal Palace.
hiss!
Many media reporters at the scene took a breath, this Bilic is really bold!
Tong Yi didn't have too many surprises. He had expected West Ham United's style of play. This Bilic is so crazy. When he watched the video of the previous game between West Ham United and Liverpool and Arsenal,
Sometimes West Ham United suppresses these two teams crazily, and they don't just rely on defensive counterattacks to win. They beat Manchester City by defensive counterattacks, but they don't win against these two teams!
Therefore, Tong Yi knew that Bilic would definitely attack fiercely from the beginning of this game.
As expected!
But at this time, West Ham United's offense performed very well. Especially the cooperation between the frontcourt and midfield trio of Payet, Lanzini and Moses was really exquisite. Even consecutive
Crystal Palace's high-intensity pressure failed to steal the ball, and Kanter made a rare save.
And at this moment, Payet suddenly made a strong tilt to the ball, and directly spread the football five or six meters.
With a bang, the changed direction directly hit Rudiger who was rushing up, and then fell to the ground hard.
The referee did not hesitate and blew the foul whistle directly.
The referee warned Rudiger that he did not play a card, but gave West Ham United a chance to take a direct free kick in a very good position. This is very dangerous, because West Ham United's Payet has a good call and a free kick.
of.
Crystal Palace fans are very nervous and worried.
The Crystal Palace is in danger!
