At the end of the first half, Crystal Palace led 2-0.
Jimenez performed very well, scoring twice, helping the team lead the opponent, and it can even be said that the victory of this game was locked in advance. Watford's strength is indeed a bit poor, compared to Crystal Palace
Let’s talk.
No wonder at this time, Crystal Palace fans are chanting Jimenez's name.
Ignacio's mood on the bench was a little low and a little anxious.
Jimenez has indeed performed very well recently, which has put a lot of pressure on him.
He clenched his fists tightly. If he has a chance to play in this game, he must perform well and show his strength and competitiveness. Jimenez, I will not lose to you.
Ignacio is still very confident in himself.
However, at the beginning of the second half, he still didn't get a chance and sat on the bench.
At the beginning of the second half, Jimenez was still the team's main forward.
Jimenez takes this opportunity very seriously.
Because he knew very well that it would be difficult for him to play the whole game in this game. Tong Yi definitely wanted to give Ignacio some time to get back to his game state. Therefore, at the beginning of the second half of the game, he
He charged and attacked like crazy, trying to use up all his energy and score more goals before being replaced.
In this case, his position will be more stable.
Yes, Jimenez can also feel the pressure from Ignacio.
Of course, this pressure does not come from Ignacio's current state, but from Ignacio's previous strength.
In the past, Ignacio was a player who had proven himself.
The young Ignacio stepped on Balotelli and firmly established himself as Crystal Palace's main center. If he hadn't taken over Balotelli later, Balotelli wouldn't have been there last season.
Such an excellent performance.
So, Ignacio is very powerful.
Even if his mentality has not been adjusted now and he has just recovered from injury, Jimenez can still feel the pressure.
Because you don’t know when Ignacio will get back to form?
What if he finds his form in the next game and scores goals continuously?
So, there is a lot of pressure.
Jimenez hopes that he can score more goals in a limited time and perform better to prove himself. Let Tong Yi and the Crystal Palace coaching staff see how powerful Jimenez is.
Therefore, Jimenez was very aggressive at this time, as if it was their Crystal Palace that was lagging behind.
Seeing Jimenez's actions, the Crystal Palace players also played very actively.
After all, this is their home court, so they naturally want to boost their morale.
Seeing Jimenez so active and eager to score goals, the Crystal Palace players naturally had to keep up, so when the game started in the second half, Crystal Palace
Palace attacked wildly, overwhelming the Watford players.
The players of Walford were all dumbfounded. Why were they playing like we, Watford, were leading 2-0?
This Crystal Palace is too ruthless, giving Watford no way to survive at all.
At this time, Watford actually wanted to struggle.
But they soon discovered that it didn’t work!
Crystal Palace pressed so hard that they really couldn't attack and were completely suppressed. Their goal was also hit frequently, and it was obvious that they were really in danger!
Danger!
In the 10th minute of the second half, Crystal Palace really broke Watford's goal.
It was Jimenez who scored the goal!
Seeing this, Ignacio on the bench couldn't sit still. Without anyone reminding him, he stood up and ran away to warm up. He wanted to play and score goals.
Jimenez put too much pressure on him.
If Jimenez is allowed to continue playing, who knows how many goals this guy will score?
No, he has to appear!
To be honest, the Crystal Palace fans at the scene were also very surprised and pleasantly surprised. They did not expect Jimenez to break out at this time. He really performed so well during this period that he even had to catch up with Jimenez.
Brahimovic. If Jimenez hadn't played a tough match yet, Crystal Palace fans believed that Jimenez could replace Ibrahimovic's starting position.
Bang bang bang!
The audience was filled with thunderous applause from the Crystal Palace fans, who were all chanting Jimenez's name.
Jimenez is also very happy. He can feel that he is in very good condition. He believes that if he continues to play, he can still score goals. And he also wants to score goals. He must seize everything.
Opportunity to express yourself.
Tong Yi on the sidelines also kept applauding. Jimenez did indeed perform very well, which was a bit beyond his expectation.
It seems that Ignacio is really a catfish.
Looking at the desperate Jimenez on the court, Tong Yi's only thought was to hope that Jimenez would not have an accident or get injured. Crystal Palace really couldn't bear the injury, so at this time, Tong Yi had
There are plans to replace Jimenez.
Because Jimenez has performed well enough in this game and proved himself.
What's more important is that the Watford players look at Jimenez differently. He is afraid that the retaliatory fouls from these Watford players will threaten Jimenez's health.
Crystal Palace really can’t bear any more injuries
sick!
Of course, Tong Yi also hopes to give Ignacio some opportunities.
Now the outcome of the game has basically been determined, and Jimenez also performed a hat trick to show his strength. Whether it is to protect the players or save physical energy, Jimenez should be allowed to rest at this time.
However, Jimenez doesn't seem to be satisfied yet and is still attacking crazily.
Therefore, Tong Yi still endured it.
He did not replace Jimenez immediately. He was prepared to give Jimenez some more time. Of course, he also reminded Jimenez on the sidelines to protect himself and avoid injury. .??.
Jimenez is quite touched, since Tong Yi cares about his health. It seems that his recent performance has played a big role, and he has entered Tong Yi's sight.
Of course, he was also a little anxious at the same time.
Because he knew very well that Tong Yi said these words, which meant that he did not have much time.
Therefore, Jimenez is more active. He wants to score another goal in the limited time and show his abilities.
Seriously, Jimenez almost succeeded.
In the 19th minute of the second half, Jimenez received a pass from Sabitzer on the penalty area line. Then he continuously moved the ball laterally. After shaking continuously, he got out of the way and shot directly with his legs. The football roared.
It passed by and flew out of the bottom line, grazing the goal post.
Jimenez is just one step away from scoring a big four!
The Watford players were frightened, and then they looked at Jimenez with swords and swords in their eyes. Jimenez couldn't help but shrink his neck. Seeing this, how could Tong Yi dare to keep Jimenez on the court?
Substitution, in the 20th minute of the second half, Tong Yi made a substitution and replaced Jimenez with Ignacio.
This game also left Ignacio about 28 minutes!
In fact, the playing time is quite acceptable and quite a lot.
Jimenez was filled with regret when he came off the field, but he was still very satisfied with his performance today. He hugged Ignacio in a beautiful mood and walked off the field.
And Ignacio kept a straight face the whole time, very serious.
Jimenez put a lot of pressure on him.
Jimenez scored a hat trick in 60 minutes, which is very impressive. If he cannot perform well in this game, Jimenez may lose his first substitute position.
Sit tight.
This is something Ignacio cannot accept.
Therefore, when the game started again, Ignacio's football seemed a bit irritable and fierce.
Obviously, he very much hopes to score a goal as soon as possible!
Seeing this, Tong Yibu
He shook his head. Although he did not explicitly remind Ignacio of the problem in his usual training, he hinted at it. Moreover, Devney and the others also raised this issue many times during their psychological counseling.
Don't be too anxious, just treat the game with a normal mind.
But this guy didn't listen to the penalty area, and after seeing Jimenez's performance, he got into trouble again.
In this game, he was still playing very anxiously, and he wanted to hit the place with a brick, and he played very irritably. To be honest, if Ignacio played more carefully, he would be able to
Scored a goal.
Just now, after Sabitzer and Llorente cooperated continuously, they created a very good opportunity for Ignacio.
Ignacio got a good shooting opportunity in the penalty area, but he was too anxious and not calm enough.
If he didn't shoot the ball directly, but instead dunked the football and passed the opponent's central defender Kabul, he would have directly got a chance to stand alone. But he came up with a shot and it was very fast.
Unfortunately, the angle was not that tricky, and the ball was directly saved by Watford goalkeeper Gomez.
Walford also used this ball to launch a quick counterattack, which was very fast and full of threats.
If Crystal Palace goalkeeper Maignan hadn't reacted in time, the goal would have been lost.
Maignan made a great save and saved the football.
Then, Crystal Palace launched a counterattack and quickly sent the football to the frontcourt. Ignacio had another good opportunity, but unfortunately without any pressure, he actually made a mistake in stopping the ball and directly sent the football to the frontcourt.
It stopped at Kabul's feet, and Kabul made a big kick to clear the ball.
This is a bit outrageous!
Ignacio was still a little too anxious. He hadn't completely stopped the ball before he was about to break through. Therefore, the stop of the ball was really substandard.
Seeing this, Jimenez on the bench breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that Ignacio is still unaware of his problem. Ignacio should not threaten his position in a short time. Now it depends on whether Ignacio becomes the norm. If so
If it becomes the norm, Ignacio will probably be ruined.
To be honest, this is a good thing or a bad thing for Jimenez.
Jimenez is also very confused.
He didn't know whether it was better to hope that Ignacio could regain his form and skyrocket, or that Ignacio would completely sink and gradually disappear.
On the one hand, it is for myself, and on the other hand, it is for the team.
Jimenez is also very confused!
In the final game, Crystal Palace defeated Watford 3-0. After Ignacio came on the field, the Crystal Palace side was filled with thunder and little rain, and no goals were scored at all. It can be seen that,
Ignacio is still not very good.
