In the penultimate round, Crystal Palace played away against West Bromwich Albion. West Bromwich Albion have already qualified for promotion. They are ranked second in the league, with Newcastle at the top. Like Crystal Palace, Hughton's team has suffered a certain injury.

With a mysterious pill, they scored at a high rate in the second half of the season and were unstoppable.

West Bromwich Albion has no championship to compete for, and no worries about relegation, so they seem to be absent-minded at their home court. Their head coach Di Matteo is the one who is called the "Buddha coach who is immovable as a mountain" by Chinese fans.

", the Italian coach who led Chelsea to the Champions League trophy.

Di Matteo used a large number of substitute players in this seemingly crucial matchup. As a result, they were no match for Crystal Palace at home and actually lost to Crystal Palace with a score of 0:3.

After the game, other teams expressed their dissatisfaction, thinking that West Bromwich Albion was suspected of letting go. It is simply unreasonable and illogical for you, the second-best player in the class, to be defeated by a group of youths.

In fact, before the game, the local bookmakers in England were not optimistic that West Brom could defeat Crystal Palace at home. Of course, the handicap is more complicated and may not have much to do with the actual game, but they are professional analysts, and in the end

At least I think Crystal Palace has the ability to win away from home.

Not only bookmakers, but also critics generally believe that West Brom, who has no desires and desires, will find it difficult to stop Crystal Palace. Those who are dissatisfied are those teams who are committed to competing with Crystal Palace for places.

Blackpool were very dissatisfied, but their noise was of no use and they could only accept the reality.

The Best Coach of the Championship in April was awarded to Wen Sheng again. Crystal Palace only lost one game to Preston in the whole month of April. They won too many other games. The only person who could pose a threat to him was Newcastle head coach Chris.

Hughton, maybe because he was a little bit more handsome, Wen Sheng defeated Hughton.

Wen Sheng specially sent an "apology" text message to Hughton, but Hughton replied that you are definitely not the winner of the Championship Coach of the Year award, which immediately made Wen Sheng a little disappointed.

Needless to say, even a blind person can see it. Except for Chris Hughton, it is difficult for anyone else to win this award.

The final round was held at home. On May 2, Crystal Palace ushered in the last opponent in the league, Sheffield Wednesday. There was no room for failure in this game. Due to the make-up games by competitors, Crystal Palace, which currently has 72 points, dropped to sixth place.

There is still another chance to be overtaken by Blackpool, but Sheffield Wednesday is in the relegation zone and still has a chance to go ashore. They are only two points behind 21st-placed Scunthorpe. If Scunthorpe loses in the final round, they will

If they beat Crystal Palace away from home, they can successfully avoid relegation.

Of course you can't give up if you have a glimmer of hope.

On April 28, the consortium formed by Parish and others reached an agreement with Carlton to complete the acquisition of Crystal Palace. Carlton completed its mission, which was very satisfactory. The fans are always very simple and the team's results

Well, the management seems to be good, and Carlton's reputation among the fan base is unexpectedly good.

A packed Selhurst Park also had some brief signs congratulating Parish and thanking Carlton.

Carlton in the stands almost shed tears, damn, I finally lived up to my mission!

In the last game, the Battle of Tianwang Mountain, Crystal Palace fans put great enthusiasm into this game. Not only was the stadium full of spectators, there were also countless fans outside the stadium watching the game.

But this game is too heavy for both sides. Sheffield Wednesday must win, while Crystal Palace must draw or win, which is not easy.

Neither side wanted to concede the ball, and everyone knew it would be difficult to concede the goal, so the game was ugly, at least in the first half. The scene seemed intense, but everyone was cautious.

Normally, if you get to the point like Sheffield Wednesday, that won't work. The offense won't work, and the defense won't work. But in this game, at least the defense was decent, and it didn't leave many gaps for Crystal Palace in the first half.

A good team should be like a cheetah, lying quietly in the grass waiting for its opportunity.

Crystal Palace can be called such a team. The temperament of the team has been changed by Wen Sheng. They are more patient now than ever. Wen Sheng's tactics in the first half can be said to be quite conservative, but the players are still unconditional.

After executing it, they believe that there will always be hope in waiting.

Sheffield Wednesday don't think so. In fact, they don't want to play for 90 minutes. It would be great if they have 20 minutes to decide the outcome. They will boldly attack the Crystal Palace directly.

Adhering to this concept, Sheffield Wednesday often relies on set-piece attacks, so this game is really not good to watch.

But the Crystal Palace fans were still singing and dancing in the stands. Everyone knew the situation. If the score was maintained like this, it would be useless even if Blackpool on the other side won by a big score. Crystal Palace could still suppress them and occupy the sixth position.

It wasn't until the 70th minute that Sheffield Wednesday, who couldn't hold it anymore, finally started to exert their strength. Unfortunately, Crystal Palace was waiting for this opportunity. They have taken advantage of their opponents' mentality many times in the second half of the season, and now is no exception.

Kante made a through ball and Vardy went solo to help Crystal Palace take the lead 1:0. Then Sheffield Wednesday failed. Fortunately, Crystal Palace's shot seemed to have been cold for too long and did not expand the score.

Crystal Palace secured a win, 75 points, and finished sixth, qualifying for the play-offs.

Selhurst Park was full of jubilation. Although promotion has not yet been confirmed, at least Crystal Palace has a chance to compete for that spot. Who will win in the play-offs is still unknown.

The new chairman Parish was very proud and said in an interview: "We did not buy the team because of its performance. We are just locals. We love Crystal Palace. This is our only idea of ​​​​helping the team!"

"Now we have the opportunity to compete for the promotion spot. This is a gift to our fans! Thank you Wen, thank you to the players of the team. They completed the season under such difficult conditions and achieved excellent results. This is not easy!

I hope they can continue their efforts and bring more joy to our fans!"

Good guy, how sanctimonious you talk about yourself.

Carlton said, "Seeing that the team has made great progress under my management, I feel like I can leave with peace of mind! The Eagles will always be in my heart!"

Yes, he can get out!

Wen Sheng said calmly after the game, "At this stage, we have achieved our first goal and successfully avoided relegation!"

Jordan Myers and several other media reporters almost dropped their microphones in shock. Good guy, you are too modest.

"Our season is not over yet. We still have the play-offs and the FA Cup to compete for! Everyone must calm down. It is not the end now, it is just the beginning. I hope we can achieve an ideal result in the follow-up

!At this point, none of us want to miss an opportunity, but so will our opponents! I hope my guys can always remind themselves to stay focused!"

"Daniel, your next opponent is Nottingham Forest. What do you think your chances of winning are?!" Miles pointed the microphone at Wen Sheng.

There is no need to draw lots for the opponents in the play-offs. The draw only determines who will be the guest and who will be the home first. According to the rules, the sixth will play against the third, and the fifth will play against the fourth. The third in the league is Nottingham Forest, and Crystal Palace's opponent in the semi-finals will be them.

"Jordan, you know, I will always say that the result will be known after the game is played!" Wen Sheng does not speak big words, nor does he engage in psychological tactics. He is more cautious than ever, just in case he steals the chicken but loses the rice.

That's miserable.

"They have proven that they are an outstanding team, my team is the same, and we are also outstanding. It's hard to say what the final result will be. I hope we will advance!" Wen Sheng added.

The Crystal Palace players were naturally delighted with the result of the game. Driven by the atmosphere of the home fans, everyone seemed very happy. Wen Sheng originally wanted to pour cold water on everyone to cool down, but finally gave up and let's talk about it on the training ground. First
Chapter completed!
