In the second round of the game, we cannot underestimate our opponents, they are still very capable!"

The media reporters all gave Tong Yi a blank look. They all thought that Tong Yi was getting an advantage and still behaved!
Galatasaray didn't stay much at all. They left after losing the game. They didn't say much at the post-match press conference.
Galatasaray people really come and go in a hurry.
However, this is a good thing for Tong Yi and Crystal Palace, so that they can focus more on the next game. To be honest, this season, Crystal Palace's focus is still on the Premier League.
