In the 71st minute, Crystal Palace finally scored. De Bruyne got rid of his fellow Huddlestone in the midfield and led several members of the Crystal Palace frontcourt to play a fast break.

He gave the ball to Scannell, and Scannell dribbled the ball to beat Bell. Bell was obviously tired and could not keep up with Scannell's pace, so he could only commit a tactical foul, but when he carried out his foul plan

At this time, Scannell passed the ball back to De Bruyne, allowing Bell to bring down only one person.

According to the favorable principle, the ball returned to De Bruyne's feet. Anthony Taylor did not call a foul, so De Bruyne continued to move forward.

Crystal Palace dribbled the ball so fast that Tottenham players couldn't keep up. Ledley King and Gallas followed Vardy one by one and tried to intercept the ball.

As a result, before Gallas could move into position, De Bruyne's shot had already arrived.

A long shot from a distance of more than 20 meters. Gomez is tall and has long arms, but he can't resist De Bruyne's kick. His shot has an arc, is extremely fast, and has an extremely tricky angle.

.

Crystal Palace took the lead in this way, and Lao Lei was a little confused.

He was preparing to make a substitution. He knew that the team's physical fitness was about the same. He could see that the Belgian youngster De Bruyne, who was recharging his energy, was still very active and something would happen sooner or later.

Something really happened at this moment. Of course, this long-range shot was somewhat lucky! It almost floated out the door.

What about luck?

Luck is also a reflection of strength, and De Bruyne already has this strength.

"Ding Ding! Ding Ding!" Crystal Palace fans shouted De Bruyne's nickname in the stands with great rhythm.

De Bruyne happily ran towards the fans, slid to his knees gracefully, and felt very happy.

"Finally a goal!" Wen Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. De Bruyne's goal reflected the idea he was pursuing, luring the enemy deep and suddenly changing speed.

De Bruyne's ability has increased the uncertainty of this change of speed. After all, Tottenham are still a little tired. The midfielder cannot keep up with the pace of Crystal Palace, and the defense is also a bit confused. Their center back Ledley King and Gareth

Lars should have a morning. Although he may not be able to steal De Bruyne, he may block De Bruyne's shooting route.

Lao Lei saw that he lost the ball. Of course he couldn't accept the result of losing. At least he had to get a draw. This was three points worth six points. Losing this game would widen the gap between the two sides and let Crystal Palace

With one game of error-tolerance opportunity, not to mention that apart from Crystal Palace, Chelsea is still ahead.

Everyone is thinking about knocking Chelsea out of the top four. Chelsea has been in poor form recently and cannot continue to be poor. If one day it gets better, the more Crystal Palace and Tottenham are thrown away, the more hope it will have for the top four.

La.

Lao Lei couldn't sit still and immediately changed players. Defoe replaced Van der Vaart and Crouch replaced Pavlyuchenko.

To be honest, Lao Lei still has some contempt for Crystal Palace. His research found that Mertens is very important to Crystal Palace. He feels that Mertens has a great impact on Crystal Palace's offense. Mertens' suspension and absence make him feel that he can only rely on one German player.

Browne cannot succeed. After all, Crystal Palace's frontcourt quartet of Vardy, Boateng, De Bruyne and Mertens were not on the court in the first half of the season.

Vardy and De Bruyne are recovering from injuries, so he did not play the main role in this game.

Tottenham played well in the first half. Crystal Palace did not completely restrict the opponent's offense, which gave Lao Lei some illusions.

In the second half, Crystal Palace obviously paid more attention to control and did not have many offensive opportunities. This made Lao Lei feel that his team was fine. Who would have thought that De Bruyne would suddenly run away.

Damn it, you were really active in the first half, but didn't you go quiet in the second half? Why did it explode again?

Defoe's top scorer, Crouch is tall and has long legs, and his role as a fulcrum in the frontcourt is also very strong.

What makes Lao Lei more depressed is that the damn Crystal Palace is not afraid of this method.

After scoring the first goal, Wen Sheng advocated controlling the ball even more.

The ball cannot be handed over at this time because they have Crouch. After Tottenham gets the ball, they must pass the high ball to Crouch. Then Defoe and the midfielder will go to the frontcourt to grab two points, and the wingers must also

Knows all kinds of crosses.

Secondly, the center backs of Crystal Palace are really good. Since McCarthy came back, the defense at the center back position seems to be much better. It can’t be seen in training. In the last game and this game, the difference between Benatia and McCarthy was

The more reliable one is that Benatia is responsible for attacking, and the more experienced McCarthy is responsible for filling in. The two complement each other.

Pavlyuchenko was basically beaten to death by Benatia and McCarthy today, and he didn't have any outstanding performance.

With Crouch playing, Wen Sheng also has full confidence in his centre-back partner.

In fact, the first one made Tottenham a little uncomfortable. Crystal Palace's control ability is really good. The ball was dropped slowly in the backcourt. The players are no strangers to Tottenham's fierce impact. On the training ground, in the Premier League

On the field, the defense has experienced such moments many times. They have enough experience that the opponent will pounce too hard. At worst, they will play wide to the opponent's wing to avoid passing the ball to the center.

Wen Sheng's response routine is still the same, letting his two wingers stand forward, parallel to the Tottenham center back line, just like this, it depends on whether you dare to attack crazily.

Of course Lao Lei is crazy, so Crystal Palace can get the opportunity to counterattack. Bell's physical fitness has dropped drastically. Scannell actually won the two physical confrontations. You must know that Scannell does not have the height of Bell and neither Bell.

strong.

Lao Lei's method of relying on weight did not work. No matter how tall Crouch is, he can't do anything without someone feeding him the ball. He can only make useless runs one after another.

In less than 10 minutes of playing time, he committed three fouls and received a topaz card from Anthony Taylor.

He was too active and worked harder than Pavlyuchenko. Unfortunately, his defensive level was not very good. One time, Benatia actually staged a breakthrough when facing Crouch, causing the angry Crouch to attack him from behind.

Pulling foul.

As soon as this situation seemed to be in Crystal Palace's hands, Wen Sheng was still nervous on the sidelines.

After all, Tottenham's team has its strength, and its lineup is still thick, which is better than Crystal Palace.

Another reason why Wen Sheng asked everyone to strengthen ball control in the backcourt is to save physical energy. This strategy is effective, but everyone did not implement it very well today. It was only in the second half that he implemented his ideas, so it’s time to

In the last few minutes, Crystal Palace also struggled. The players made mistakes in confrontation and passing under the pressure of their opponents.

It's a pity that Tottenham can't invest in offensive forces. It's not that they don't want to invest, but they don't have the physical ability. Lao Lei was right. When it comes to physical ability, he feels that Crystal Palace has an advantage.

Lao Lei reluctantly heard Anthony Taylor's whistle.

That was the final whistle and they couldn't equalize the score.

Wen Sheng clenched his fists and raised them high, cheering "Oh!" to the Crystal Palace fans.

This game is indeed not easy. It should be said that recent games have not been easy. The team's offensive problems are not caused by Zaha and Scannell.

In these few games where it was difficult to score goals, Mertens and De Bruyne were absent one after another. Wen Sheng originally hoped that Zaha and Scannell could perform a little brightly, but who knew that playing as a double forward and two wings would not work.

Wen Sheng now realizes that Zaha seems to be able to perform very well when he has thighs. Without thighs, let him temporarily act as a thigh. He is too young now. As for Scannell, he is simply an Adou who cannot be supported. Don't look at it.

He had a lot of good looks today, but it was a pity that there were so few.
Chapter completed!
