Chapter 209 The First Crown in Crystal Palace History

Soon, the team returned to its original calm.Although Wu Haowen knew it was calm on the surface.

Meier's dissatisfaction still persisted, which also made Wu Haowen very disappointed in him.

If a player is very capable, but he is a thorn, I believe not many people are willing to use him.Like Balotelli back then.

Wu Haowen can only temporarily choose to deal with it coldly, so that Meyer will not start in the starting lineup and come off the bench temporarily.

Of course, Crystal Palace's players appear to be very charismatic.Guangzhou Evergrande kept making transfer offers to Fagner and Pepe, but Wu Haowen rejected them all.

Because I just told Luca and the others that I would no longer sell old players, Evergrande's approach would only make it more difficult for me to manage in the future, so Wu Haowen chose to refuse.

Crystal Palace beat Bournemouth 2-14 in the fifth round of the FA Cup at Selhurst Park on February 6.Successfully advanced to the sixth round of the FA Cup.The opponent in the sixth round will be the English Championship team Leeds United, which is very good news for Crystal Palace, allowing the main players to take turns.

2月17日，在凯普球场。欧罗巴联赛第一轮淘汰赛第二回合比赛中，水晶宫3:1战胜了费耶诺德，最终总比分9:1顺利晋级第二轮淘汰赛。

In this game, Watson played well.

In the 8th minute, Crystal Palace took a corner kick from the left.Fagner kicked the ball and hoisted the ball into the penalty area in front of the goal. Zheng Fengwei near the corner of the small penalty area jumped up and gave the ball to Watson near the penalty spot on the left rear.

Watson volleyed directly and the ball flew into the net.

Zheng Fengwei had a chance to head the goal for this goal.However, due to Zheng Fengwei's outstanding performance in the first round, the Feyenoord team paid attention.

Therefore, there are always 2 players around him to help defend, coupled with the attention of goalkeeper Bill Yulo, Zheng Fengwei had to pass the ball to assist his teammates.

In the 21st minute, Feyenoord goalkeeper Bill Yulo kicked a goal kick. Jorgensen in the frontcourt grabbed the ball in front of Russell and gave it to his teammate Boguis on the left front.

Boguis jumped up, slid down the ball with his left leg, then took control of the ball and continued to attack forward.Near the penalty spot, before the 2 defenders reach the defensive position, he shoots the right goal with his left foot.

Crystal Palace goalkeeper Dani Alves made a flying save but failed.

Feyenoord equalized the score.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again, and Crystal Palace launched a full-scale attack.

In the 52nd minute, Crystal Palace took a corner kick from the right.Pereira kicked the ball and hung it into the penalty area.Watson, who was near the sideline of the small penalty area, leaped high and pushed the ball to the upper left corner of the goal before the opponent's defender Just.

The ball went into the net.Crystal Palace 2:1.

In the 76th minute, Albino made a cross from the right. Zheng Fengwei in the small penalty area in front of the goal made it in one move. He volleyed the ball directly and sent the ball into the left net.

Finally completed the double play against Feyenoord.After Real Madrid 4:0 Ajax in the Champions League, the Eredivisie team officially bid farewell to the European arena this season.This is one of the reasons for the decline of Dutch football.

After finishing the first knockout round of the Europa League, Crystal Palace will face Bundesliga Schalke 04 in the second knockout round. The first round of the game will be played on March 3.

……

The focus of all fans in England in February will be on Sunday's League Cup final.This will be the second time Crystal Palace has entered the League Cup finals since its founding 2 years ago, and it is also the first chance to win the Premier League since Wu Haowen coached it. Naturally, this is also the chance for Crystal Palace to win the championship for the first time.

Chelsea have won five League Cups.It is clear at a glance which is more important, as the experts analyzed before the game, Chelsea is trustworthy.

The ticket office of Wembley Stadium also hung out the sign of 'sold out' early.In this seemingly evenly matched game, everyone is actually leaning towards Chelsea.

The press conference before the game also attracted a lot of media attention.

Among them, Crystal Palace has Pereira who cannot play, and Chelsea also has Pisaka who cannot play.Because they were all registered for this event by the original team at the beginning of the season, so it is a pity.Can't see them fighting back against their old club.

And Chelsea's head coach Jesus also reminded Zaha not to put too much focus on the game. After all, Zaha is the representative player of Crystal Palace. Many Crystal Palace fans are still deeply infatuated with him.

On February 2, the much-watched League Cup final officially began.

The popularity of Wembley Stadium was overwhelming that day, and the stands were full of people.Even the security personnel came up to ask the latest situation of the game from time to time.

Strait ran towards the ball, got the ball, and continued to attack.He dribbled the ball towards the right side, ran to a position parallel to the sideline of the small penalty area, and made a pass.Albino in the penalty area on the right got the pass accurately, and then immediately distributed it to the middle of the left goal.

Watson, who was standing near the penalty spot, was unmarked at the moment.A direct volley shot, the ball changes direction in the future and is sent into the net.

Chelsea goalkeeper Alizabalaga made a flying save, but unfortunately the distance was a bit far, beyond reach.

Crystal Palace 1:0 Chelsea.The opening is only 18 seconds.

In the next game, Chelsea's defensive tactics were well applied.Although Crystal Palace tried many times, they failed to knock on Chelsea's door again.

The score was maintained until the end of the first half.

In the locker room, coach Jesus encouraged the players.

"Boys, although we have no advantage over Crystal Palace now, we still have the same desire for the championship. Otherwise, we would have given Wolves the victory in the semi-finals. Why are we here? Because we are also eager for the championship. Show your courage, go to the field to defeat them, and get your championship trophy!"

The locker room is united.

However, Jesus did not realize that Crystal Palace's desire for the championship is no less than them.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again.

In the 50th minute, Luka passed the ball to Russell on the left side.Russell passed the ball from mid-range to the front and handed it to teammate Zheng Fengwei.Zheng Fengwei took the ball forward and launched an attack.After running for a few meters, he saw that his teammate Streeter was in a better position, so he directly threw the ball forward and let Streeter chase the ball.

Streeter understood Zheng Fengwei's intentions, almost at the same time as Zheng Fengwei passed the ball, Streeter accelerated to get rid of the players defending him and moved forward quickly.Then he received the ball inside the penalty area and immediately volleyed.

Arizabalaga immediately squatted down and blocked the shot with his hands.However, due to the elasticity, the ball bounced back to Streeter's feet. This time Streeter did not shoot directly, but chose to shoot to the empty goal on the right.

With a bang, the ball hit the net.Crystal Palace 2:0 Chelsea.

The anxiety on coach Gabriel Jesus' face could be seen in front of the camera, Chelsea seemed to be unable to resist the attack of Crystal Palace.as expected.

In the 62nd minute, Chelsea's Stens passed the ball to his teammates, was intercepted by Crystal Palace captain Luca, and immediately gave the ball to Meyer, who came off the bench.

Meyer found that Albino was in a good position, and immediately passed the ball to the right side to Albino.Albino took the ball forward, and immediately after crossing the half-court line, he made a long pass to the left and kicked the ball in front of Streeter for him to chase.

Expanded the score advantage.Crystal Palace 3:0 Chelsea.

As the minutes ticked by, Chelsea felt more and more that they could not change form.In the end, at Wembley Stadium, Crystal Palace defeated Chelsea under Gabriel Jesus and won the League Cup trophy.

Although the gold content of the League Cup championship is not high, it at least guarantees the qualification for the second qualifying round of the Europa League next season. This is why many teams want to win the League Cup.
