This is the starting lineup of the two teams today. The Crystal Palace side is playing with all the main players. It is obvious that they want to resolve the battle in the first round and successfully advance to the final of this season’s UEFA Champions League. The starting lineup of the Roma team is obviously
They are here for victory, they are an offensive lineup.
It seems that Di Francesco really feels that this game is an opportunity for Roma.
He still believes in the confidence he had before the game.
Seeing this, Mortensen and Shearer Henry looked at each other and both felt that the Roma team was going to suffer in this game.
At this moment, the Slovenian referee Damir Skomina, the referee of this game, was checking his watch, holding the whistle in his mouth, and was about to blow the whistle to start the game.
Skomina is 42 years old and is a very good referee. He became a football referee at the age of 18 and an international referee at the age of 27. He has refereed many international competitions, such as the Olympic Games and the European Cup. And he
He was also the referee of last year's Europa League final, officiating the match between Manchester United and Ajax. In the end, Mourinho's Manchester United won the championship.
His law enforcement style is relatively rigorous and has been well received.
At this moment, he blew the whistle to start the game.
The first to kick off was the visiting team Roma.
The Roma team did not immediately launch a fierce attack when they came up. They tested Crystal Palace.
After all, the Roma team has almost no chance to play directly against Crystal Palace. This is the first time the two teams have played against each other since Tong Yi took over. Di Francesco is still more cautious and wants to test it out first.
The Crystal Palace, on the other hand, deliberately showed weakness, making the Romans feel that the Crystal Palace was not actually that strong.
Five minutes into the game, Di Francesco couldn't help it any longer and immediately signaled the Roma team to attack directly, threatening the Crystal Palace goal and striving to score as soon as possible.
After receiving the instructions, the Roma players immediately pressed forward and attacked.
Even Juan Jesus, the left back of their three central defenders, also moved forward, directly came to a 45-degree diagonal position, and passed directly. The football drew a wonderful arc and flew into the Crystal Palace penalty area.
, in the penalty area, Dzeko used his body to resist Van Dijk behind him, stretching his legs to do what a football would do.
Stroman, the midfielder who caught up, directly swung his leg and volleyed the ball low. The football flew close to the turf and shot towards the lower right corner of the goal.
Strowman was once known as a fast horse and had a bright future.
, but unfortunately after a serious injury, his strength and speed were not as good as before, so he had to change his style. Now he plays more in the midfield and prefers to be an organizational and forward midfielder.
This time, his follow-up was very timely, and he met the ball directly with a volley.
The ball speed is very fast and the angle is very tricky.
Di Francesco on the sidelines jumped up excitedly when he saw the ball. The ball was there!
With a snap, just as the football was about to roll into the goal, Maignan was saved from the side.
The Crystal Palace fans immediately applauded and gave their applause to Maignan, while the Roma fans felt very sorry.
"A beautiful save! This goal shows Maignan's strength and ability. This goal is actually very threatening. Maignan is really good!" Shearer sincerely praised at this time.
Henry also immediately said, "Indeed, from a forward's perspective, this shot is of high quality and full of threats. But Maignan's reaction was very quick, which can be called a divine save. Although the goal was not scored,
But the Roma team really showed us something different. They were in good shape in this game, but the Crystal Palace side may be a bit dangerous!"
Yes, Henry is a little worried about Crystal Palace and Tong Yi.
The Crystal Palace fans at the scene also frowned slightly, this was a bit of a bad start.
It can also be seen from this goal that Roma's elimination of Barcelona was not entirely due to luck, they are still very capable.
The camera at the scene immediately focused on Tong Yi on the sidelines!
Now that the Romans have begun to attack, how should you respond?
However, what surprised the cameramen and fans was that Tong Yi was indifferent and still sat calmly on the coaching bench, watching quietly as if he did not see the danger this time.
Many people think that Tong Yi is like a pig with a green onion stuck in his nose - pretending to be an elephant!
Especially the extra Roma fans, they mocked Tong Yi crazily, cheered for the Roma team, and signaled the Roma team to continue attacking and strive to score a goal next time.
Di Francesco waved his hand, signaling the Romans to continue their attack.
But at this time, Crystal Palace midfielder De Bruyne suddenly made a long diagonal pass, which directly found Salah on the front wing. Salah stopped the ball with his chest, stopped and passed, and passed the ball directly.
Florenzi passed the opponent.
Yes, at this time, Florenzi retreated and became a full-back.
When defending, the Roma team changed to a five-back formation.
Salah passed Florenzi to catch up with the ball, and the opponent's right center back Fazio immediately rushed forward to intercept. However, he knew that Salah had accurately calculated Fazio's pace, and Fazio was about to rush towards Salah.
When Salah was in front of He, Salah flicked the football forward like lightning, and the football quickly rolled past Fazio's crotch. At the same time, Salah accelerated and rushed past Fazio.
Went over to catch up with football.
Salah was already close to the bottom line when he caught up with the ball.
Roma's defensive players all thought that Salah would pass back in an inverted triangle to find Ronaldo in the penalty area.
, after all, Salah has reached a dead end at this time.
Therefore, the center back Greek Manolas immediately started a crab step, and Ronaldo, who was closer to the center, crossed the passing line between Salah and Ronaldo.
At this time, Salah immediately swung his left leg and kicked the football with the inside of his foot. It seemed that he was going to pass back in an inverted triangle. Manolas immediately took a step towards the penalty spot to intercept Salah's inverted pass.
Triangle return.
Unexpectedly, the moment he stepped out, he saw the football being lifted by the inside of Salah's left foot and rolling towards the inside of Salah's outstretched right foot, and then quickly bounced back.
Salah instantly shook Manolas away, opening up some space for shooting.
Manolas was shocked and terrified!
Fried meatballs!
Salah deceived Manolas with a fried ball near the baseline, faced the opponent's goalkeeper Hennessy, and then swung his leg and shot from a small angle!
With a bang, the football shot quickly towards the lower corner of Roma's goal.
The speed of the ball is very fast, like a fleeting meteor.
The Roma fans at the scene screamed in horror, and many guys even held their heads in their hands.
"Beautiful, what a great opportunity!" Mortensen was excited.
This wave of Salah's operation was full of anger and very powerful. The only drawback was that the angle of the shot was slightly smaller, which was a pity.
In front of the goal, goalkeeper Hennessey stood in a relatively tight position, blocking the near corner of the goal.
With a bang, Hennessey dived directly from the side, and the football missed the baseline.
Bang bang bang!
Roma fans applauded Hennessey one after another. This goal is worthy of encouragement. If it weren't for him, the goal would have been lost and Roma would have fallen behind!
Manolas immediately stretched out his right hand towards Hennessey, indicating that the ball was his responsibility. He was deceived by Salah too easily, which led to this crisis.
Hennessey did not blame Manolas. After all, Salah did play a beautiful goal. Haven't you seen it before? Florenzi and Fazio were also easily deceived by Salah.
Is it over? Don’t dwell on these things, just continue to defend and defend seriously.
Manolas, Fazio and others nodded, indicating that they understood.
Corner kick, Crystal Palace got a corner kick opportunity.
Crystal Palace fans can be very excited, applauding and cheering for the Liverpool people.
Van Dijk and Ronaldo immediately entered the Roma penalty area. Fazio, the tallest player in the Roma team, immediately came to Ronaldo's side and stuck to Ronaldo, not giving the Portuguese a chance. But C.
Ronaldo didn't care at all, because Fazio was like a bamboo pole, and he came out as soon as he was given a chance to fight.
The Portuguese immediately raised his right hand to signal Cancelo in the corner to pass the football directly to him.
Suddenly, the focus of all Roma's defensive players fell on the Portuguese.
beep!
At this moment, Skomina immediately blew the whistle to serve.
sound.
Cancelo in the corner took a deep breath, then ran up to the football and hit it hard with his kick.
With a bang, the football shot out quickly and quickly flew towards the back point of the Roma team's penalty area!
Yes, the ball was passed directly to the back point.
Ronaldo and Van Dijk rushed to the front point quickly, directly leading the Roma defensive players to the front point. All Roma fans suddenly became nervous, it was dangerous!
"Later point, good opportunity, Casemiro!" Mortensen roared excitedly, his voice drawn out very long!
Because Casemiro is already empty in this position!
Juan Jesus, another central defender of the Roma team, was also blocked by Rudiger. Behind Casemiro was a short Florenzi, and more importantly, this guy was a kid.
Behind Semiro, it is almost impossible to interfere with Casemiro!
No wonder Mortensen screamed with excitement.
The Crystal Palace fans at the scene were also ejected in an instant, jumping up and waving, staring excitedly at the flying football, this ball is there!
The eyes of Roma fans are full of panic and worry!
This ball is really too dangerous!
From behind the penalty area, Casemiro looked up at the flying football. After calculating the landing point, he suddenly kicked the ground with both legs, and his body immediately took off like a rocket and stood in the air.
.
The ball came to the player, and with a bang, Casemiro hit the flying football hard.
The football shot quickly toward the Roma goal.
This ball was like lightning, and the Roma fans at the scene were desperate. They all felt that this ball was useless.
But Hennessey in front of the goal didn't give up, he never gave up.
Hennessy rushed out quickly, then jumped into the air, covering the sky with his hands.
With a snap, the football was caught by Hennessy, and it bounced out quickly. The Roma fans at the scene were so excited that they screamed excitedly, jumping up and down, what a beautiful save!
"Hennessy, you are simply our god, the goalkeeper!" Roma fans roared excitedly, praising Hennessy!
But what they didn't expect was that the football saved by Hennessy flew directly to Mbappe in the penalty area.
Mbappe didn't delay and immediately pushed his legs towards the football!
But at this moment, a big hand stretched out from behind him and pulled his body hard towards Youyi. Mbappe's body instantly lost his balance and fell backwards! Mbappe was shocked, but after falling
The moment he fell, he reacted with lightning speed, changed his push into a poke, and tried his best to stretch his right leg to poke the football.
With a bang, Mbappe hit the football, and the football immediately flew towards the Roma goal.
Hennessy, who fell to the ground in front of the goal, had no time to get up and could only watch the football fly into the goal he was guarding.
One to zero, Crystal Palace, playing at home, leads the Roma team that came from afar!
The goal was scored by young French striker Mbappe!
