Arsenal's unexpected defeat at Reebok Stadium greatly comforted Tottenham fans' extreme loss because the team was tied by Chelsea at the last moment, which made them spend a weekend happily. After all, although Tottenham failed to win Chelsea in this direct confrontation, the team still has the advantage of points and has the initiative in the league championship battle. Therefore, the fans did not feel too disappointed. Moreover, their arch-rival Arsenal capsized on Bolton and further widened the gap by Tottenham in the standings, which also played a considerable psychological comfort role for Tottenham fans.

As for Tottenham, the result of being equalized by Chelsea at the last moment did not have much negative impact on the players, but further strengthened their confidence. Even opponents of Chelsea at the level of Chelsea have to rely on Ibrahimovic's last moment to barely escape the fate of defeat. Then, facing these teams that are far inferior to Chelsea, if they have no worries about the schedule and no injuries, they cannot win.

In this way, the time came on January 22. The 24th round of the British League was scheduled. Tottenham Hotspur was visiting Selhurst Park Stadium and challenged Crystal Palace, which was fighting for relegation!

Speaking of Crystal Palace in the 2oo4-o5 season, we have to mention a player, that is, Andrew Johnson, a native England scorer with the same name and surname as a certain US president. The striker who debuted at Birmingham Club only scored eight goals in the first four seasons of his career, but the goal momentum after transferring to Crystal Palace was unstoppable. This season, he even scored thirteen goals with Drogba on the British scorer list, only behind King Thierry Henry of Highbury!

Of course, unlike Drogba, who scored all league goals in sports games, penalty kicks accounted for a considerable proportion of Andrew Johnson's goals. Since the 2oo4-o5 season, there are five of the thirteen league goals that Andrew Johnson scored!

The reason why it accounts for such a high proportion is, on the one hand, because Andrew Johnson is the number one penalty kicker at Crystal Palace, and the proportion will naturally be higher; on the other hand, it is because Andrew Johnson likes to cheat penalty kicks by fake falls in the game!

The team's top penalty shooter cheated on penalty shooter, and with an English household registration book, it would be strange if Andrew Johnson's penalty shooter didn't hit much.

At this point, Tottenham can be said to have a fair say. You should know that in the first match between the two sides this season, Tottenham, who was at home at the time, scored a goal shortly after the start of the game and maintained the lead of this goal for most of the game. However, due to Andrew Johnson's fake fall and a penalty kick in the penalty area, he lost three points that he was about to get!

It is precisely because of this reason that before the start of this game, George emphasized that he should not easily foul Andrew Johnson in the penalty area, or make the referee feel that he is suspected of fouling him in the penalty area: "However, this does not mean that we must let this cunning boy run freely in our penalty area. If the situation is urgent, it is not impossible to give him a penalty... I don't think Crystal Palace has the ability to resist our offensive, which is something that even Chelsea and Juventus have not done."

"Boss, what you mean is that instead of stopping Andrew Johnson from scamming penalty in the game, getting as many goals as possible is the key to winning this game?" Hearing George's words, Ronaldo couldn't help but lit up his eyes and couldn't wait to ask.

"That's right." Seeing that Ronaldo understood the meaning of his words, George nodded with approval and said, "In the past twenty-three league games, Crystal Palace has conceded a total of 37 goals, ranking fifth from the bottom among the twenty British teams. This shows that Crystal Palace's defensive quality is actually quite bad. So, if we expand our lead as much as possible, then even if Andrew Johnson will cheat the penalty again, he will not be able to save the defeat like he did in the last match!"

Hearing that George asked them to let go of their hands and feet in this game, the Tottenham players present were ready to try. Like George, the players were also full of resentment for Crystal Palace, an opponent who stole a victory from them by a controversial penalty.

However, what George did not expect was that his approach before the game made the Tottenham player who had cleared his goal completely kill the suspense of the game in just half an hour!

Just three minutes into the game, Robben relied on his personal ability to quickly advance on the left. He passed two Crystal Palace players in a row and assisted Drogba to score, 1-0!

Five minutes later, Tottenham made a comeback. Robben still formed a breakthrough on the left, but the Dutch Pan chose to dribble inward this time. After attracting most of Crystal Palace's defensive power, Drogba in the middle of the penalty area cleverly leaked, allowing Ronaldo, who followed up, to get the chance to hit the empty goal, 2-0!

Less than ten minutes into the game, the Crystal Palace players were dizzy. They did not expect Tottenham's offensive to be so fierce and merciless. As a result, Crystal Palace, who was stunned by Tottenham's three-pronged approach, was pierced by Robben and Vidic in the next twenty minutes, and was in a passive situation of falling behind in the score early!

Although Andrew Johnson re-used the same trick in the second half, fell in the Tottenham penalty area in a counterattack and scored a penalty kick and hit it himself, Johnson's goal could not actually have any impact on the overall situation when the score between the two sides had turned 6-1!

The referee is not a fool. Maybe he will award Crystal Palace a penalty for Andrew Johnson's wonderful performance in the penalty area, but he cannot give Crystal Palace a chance to take the penalty without conclusive evidence. If this happens, it will inevitably cause strong dissatisfaction from Tottenham, and he will be pushed to the forefront. When the FA and PGMoL investigate under public pressure, he will likely become infamous because of this game and lose the qualification to continue to enforce the law in the UK!

In this way, when the game ended, Tottenham Hotspur, who played away, beat Crystal Palace seven to one, avenged the revenge of a single arrow that was tied by his opponent using a controversial penalty!
