Chapter 193 The situation is not optimistic!
Soon, this much-watched game began.

In this game, Crystal Palace undoubtedly made sufficient preparations. Out of fear of the speed of Southampton's wing, in the first half of the game, Crystal Palace blocked the wing with all their strength, and did not allow Southampton's winger to create even a threatening attack.

Watching the side of the team get frustrated by the opponent's defense again and again, Yunfei shook his head helplessly.It should be said that Pluton's passing skills are still good, but his vision is obviously his shortcoming. Not to mention compared with Yunfei, even compared with other midfielders, he does not have an advantage. This makes him always unable to catch the loopholes in Crystal Palace's defense in time.

Plutton obviously realized this too, he was trying hard to learn Yunfei's playing style when he was on the field, obviously, this didn't improve his performance.His shortcomings doomed him not to be able to play like Yunfei.

"Once again, Prudton's transfer of the ball failed to find his teammates. Although he was already trying to find the opponent's flaws, his slow pass still couldn't allow him to penetrate the opponent's defense. On the contrary, because of his obvious passing intention, he was continuously intercepted by the opponent. This is not a good phenomenon!"

The more anxious Prudton was on the field, the more chaotic he played, and throughout the first half, Southampton's midfield organization was a bit messy. In the end, Redknapp called Prudton to the sidelines and communicated for a while. The situation improved.

"Plutton is upset, he wants to learn Yunfei's style of play so much that he loses his advantage!"

Coach Taylor said with emotion, he didn't expect this kind of situation to happen to Pluton, who has always been stable.

"Yunfei sitting on the sidelines must be a kind of stimulation for him. He also hopes to prove himself. Otherwise, what is waiting for him is to leave at the end of the season. After all, if he does not leave, he will definitely be Yunfei's substitute next season! He is definitely not qualified for the position of defensive midfielder in the Premier League."

Redknapp said lightly that he was not surprised by Prudden's performance, because Prudden was only 24 years old, not very old, and in fact he was still a young man.

"Then what to do, just let him mess around like this?"

"I have communicated with him, I believe he will calm down!"

As Redknapp said, after communicating with the head coach, Prudton found his own rhythm on the field, but this does not mean that Southampton was able to break through the opponent's goal.

Intermission, visiting team's dressing room.

Redknapp is a little anxious now. The team can't start the situation on the offensive end, and there may be major problems on the defensive end at any time. This is not the first time this kind of thing has happened this season.

"In the second half, we need to stabilize our defense first, and see what tricks Crystal Palace is going to do. No matter what, we can't let the opponent score first, understand?"

Redknapp gave thousands of instructions in the locker room, and the players understood what the coach meant and nodded one after another.

At this time, Redknapp glanced at Yunfei.

"Yunfei, you should warm up at the beginning of the second half and be ready to play anytime!"

Yunfei nodded. His injuries are almost healed now, and he should have no problem playing halftime.

At the beginning of the second half, Yunfei, who was warming up on the sidelines, attracted the attention of many people.

"It seems that Coach Harry can't sit still. I think if Southampton can gain the lead, he will definitely not choose to let Yunfei play!"

The reporters on the sidelines were discussing enthusiastically. Anyway, they also hope to see how Yunfei will be after his comeback.

"Coach Harry is just in case. I'm afraid that Crystal Palace will suddenly exert strength. The counterattack of this team is definitely not worse than that of Southampton!"

As the reporters said, after the start of the second half, Crystal Palace, which had defended half the game, finally showed its fangs. The two wingers took turns attacking Southampton's defense.

The head coach of Crystal Palace, Ian Dowe, clenched his fists tightly. He was expecting the team to score a goal. This offensive posture could not last long, otherwise it would be crushed by Southampton's counterattack speed, but in a short period of time, it could still achieve some effect. He hoped that the team could score the goal that gave the team the lead in this short window!
Just 5 minutes after the first half, when Crystal Palace's offensive gradually weakened, Southampton made a mistake. Full-back Krani received a return pass from Prudton, and then a somewhat careless pass was broken by Crystal Palace winger Andy Johnson's astute foot, and he fought back on the spot.

Krani, who was already a little embarrassed due to a pass error, was about to intercept Andy Johnson, who was using his speed to attack him. Then he slipped and fell directly to the ground. This time, Southampton's entire defense on the right was completely lost. Andy Johnson entered the penalty area without any interference.

In the penalty area, Kenton and Simbokins rushed up together to prevent the opponent from going forward, but this time, Andy Johnson seized the tiny gap between the two, and shot a light kick, passing through the two tall central defenders, and flew directly to the goal.

Niemi was blocked by his own players this time, and when he saw the ball flying out, it was too late!

1: 0!

Crystal Palace took a one-to-nil lead at home!
When he saw the ball hit the net, Ian Dawe cheered, and his arrangement still achieved results!The first goal is too important for his team!

Redknapp on the other side shook his head. There was nothing he could do about the sudden short-circuit of the player's brain.

"Or, just let Yunfei play directly!"

Taylor came over and said, at this time, Chang Yunfei also made sense.

Redknapp hesitated at this time, he didn't want Yunfei to play for too long, the bottom line in his heart was 30 minutes, which was still a bit early.

Thinking again and again, Redknapp shook his head.

"Wait a little longer, don't worry!"

At this time, Taylor can only admire his head coach's heart. This game is related to the success or failure of the season. If this game is lost, then even if Southampton wins the last round of the game, whether they can win the championship depends on Reading's performance.At this time, if it were him, he would choose Yunfei without hesitation!
