There were some changes on Manchester City's side in today's game, but not much. David Silva did not appear on the roster for this game due to injury. This is a very bad thing for Manchester City, which still has a great impact on their strength.

And Goretzka came to the wing because he wanted to make way for Toure.

However, this should not have a great impact on Goretzka. He has played this position before and performed very well.

"It should be a little difficult for Manchester City today. Without Silva, this will still have a great impact on them." Mortensen said.

The Manchester City fans at the scene all glared at Mortensen with white eyes, "You really don't want to mention anything."

Manchester City fans believe in their team. They, Manchester City, will definitely win this game. They have this confidence.

beep!

The referee blew his whistle and the game started immediately. Manchester City was the first to kick off.

The Manchester City team was already prepared to burn the boat, so as soon as the game started, they pressed forward across the board and attacked like crazy.

"There is really not much time left for the Manchester City team. I can understand that they are pressing all the way. But if you are pressing all the way, don't you worry about your defense? The Crystal Palace people's counterattack is very powerful!" Shearer looked at Manchester City's options and suddenly he had more confidence in Crystal Palace.

In this game, Crystal Palace should have no problem.

At this time, Manchester City's offense quickly advanced to the Crystal Palace half.

At halftime, it was Goretzka who held the ball!

Carvajal immediately stepped forward and blocked Gretzka's cutting line. He yelled "Don't come over, jam the inside line!"

De Bruyne immediately recovered, did not pounce again, and pounced on Goretzka.

Goretzka stared at Carvajal in front of him, his feet quickly moving back and forth on the football.

To be honest, Goretzka has never been so fancy before.

Goretzka's previous attacks were more direct and simple, and there were so many fancy moves. But Carvajal was forced to have no choice but to increase fake moves to look for opportunities.

Suddenly, Goretzka quickly passed the football past De Bruyne with a diagonal kick.

virtue

Browne turned around immediately and saw Yaya Toure rushing forward to catch up with the football.

Danger!

Yaya Toure's long-range shots are also very explosive.

Alisson roared loudly, "Be careful, don't give him space for a long shot!"

Crystal Palace's defensive players immediately held their position at the front of the penalty area and did not give Toure space for a long shot.

Toure glanced at the defense in front of him, and he suddenly took a shot.

Boom!

Just when Toure was about to draw the football, the football in front of him was stabbed away by Kanter who rushed up diagonally.

Kanter really always appears at the most critical moments, directly destroying Toure's long shot.

Crystal Palace fans chanted Kante's name excitedly.

"N'Golo, well done!" Tong Yi on the sidelines also kept applauding and praising Kanter.

Kanter is really good at stealing and intercepting. Even if there is only a slight chance, he may intercept or steal the football. This is really very good. The fact that Crystal Palace's defense is so solid is largely due to Kante.

Because of Kanter's presence, the defensive pressure on Crystal Palace's defenders is not that great.

Van Dijk also gave Kante a thumbs up.

The kicked football rolled directly to De Bruyne's feet.

De Bruyne immediately pulled the ball, turned around, quickly swung his legs, passed the ball directly, and quickly passed the football forward.

With a bang, before Balotelli could catch the ball, the football was tackled by Fernando.

The football quickly rolled to the feet of Sagna on the wing.

This Fernando's tackle was also quite powerful, directly blocking Crystal Palace's counterattack. This makes Crystal Palace fans happy in vain, what a pity!

Of course, De Bruyne actually passed the ball very well, but Fernando is also very good.

Tong Yi looked at Fernando and raised his eyebrows slightly. Sure enough, Manchester City is still very strong. This game is not easy. However, as long as they don't concede a goal in this game, they can still reach the UEFA Champions League final.

To be honest, Tong Yi is confident that he can lead Crystal Palace to the UEFA Champions League final.

With a bang, Sagna quickly passed the football to Navas on the front wing with a long pass.

Navas received the ball and immediately drove the ball along the wing to break through at high speed. To be honest, Navas is older, but his speed is still quite fast. He continued to accelerate on the wing and even directly broke through Robertson's defense. Fortunately, Robertson did not lose his position and stayed stuck on the inside line, preventing Navas from cutting inside.

In fact, Robertson is a bit overthinking.

Navas basically has no habit of cutting inside, and almost always makes crosses from the wing.

It was the same this time. Near the bottom line, Navas suddenly fell to the ground and shoveled the ball into the middle of the penalty area.

The speed of the ball was very fast. Robertson's tackle was too late. The ball rolled directly past him and quickly rolled into the Crystal Palace penalty area.

"Hey, it's dangerous! How can we defend this..." Suddenly Hiller screamed in horror.

"Aguero, shovel shot!" Mortensen also roared in horror.

Crystal Palace is in danger now!

Robertson's defense on the wing was a little too much. He thought that the ball was too big for Navas and that the ball was about to roll off the baseline, so the defense was a little lax, and then he gave Navas a chance.

Navas' pass was very fast and rolled to the point before entering the small penalty area in the blink of an eye.

With a bang, the ball has arrived and the person has arrived!

Aguero slid over like lightning and launched a shovel shot.

At the same time, Van Dijk on Aguero's side also slid over immediately and stretched out his long legs to tackle the football.

He wanted to shovel the ball out of the baseline before Aguero did.

Danger!

The two of them didn't hold back their legs. If they were shoveled together, their legs would probably be ruined!

ah!

Fans on both sides screamed in horror, as if they would see a tragic and bloody scene in the next second.

With a bang, Aguero, who was in a better position, scooped up the football, and the football shot quickly toward the Crystal Palace goal.

Boom, then Van Dijk's long leg, which slid over quickly, also violently shoveled Aguero's long leg. Under the fierce inertia, the two of them instantly collided into a ball and let out two wails!

Many timid fans at the scene couldn't stand it and closed their eyes.

clang!

The football that shot towards the goal hard hit the goal post, then bounced back quickly and hit the body of Aguero who was lying on the ground, and then bounced off the baseline.

The ball didn't go in!

Manchester City fans were speechless. Aguero's desperate shot failed to score?

Damn God, how could this ball not be scored?

Tong Yi, who was on the sidelines, immediately waved and shouted, "Leo, go check out the situation!"

To be honest, Tong Yi was very worried. He cried bitterly when he saw Van Dijk. He was afraid that Van Dijk would be injured. Van Dijk is really important to Crystal Palace. He must not get hurt. !

This ball looks like Van Dijk tackled Aguero, but in fact Van Dijk is also very dangerous.

Van Dijk's big truck drove at a speed of several hundred miles and crashed into a wall. This put a huge load on his long legs and might even break them.

It would be strange if Tong Yi wasn't nervous.

Wagner immediately nodded, then immediately stood up and rushed into the court.

Also rushing onto the pitch with Wagner was Manchester City's team doctor, with Aguero also looking dangerous.

Shhhhhhh!

The Manchester City fans at the scene were very dissatisfied and angry. They cursed Van Dijk crazily and the referee crazily. They thought this should be a penalty kick and Van Dijk should be sent off with a red card.

Van Dijk's action was simply directed at a loser and should have been sent off with a red card!

In fact, both of them are going for the ball.

The reaction of the two people was almost at the same time, which was obvious in the slow-motion replay. The only difference is that Aguero's position is a little better, and he touched the football first. And at the end, when Van Dijk saw Aguero touch the football first, he still retracted his legs.

Otherwise, both legs should be destroyed.

As he said that, when the fans in front of the TV saw this slow-motion replay, they all felt toothache.

This scene is so brutal.

These two guys are both ruthless people. They knew that such a tragic collision would happen, but neither of them gave up. They both went for the ball. What a fight!

This ball really can't be said to hurt someone intentionally, and it really can't be said to be a foul.

And Aguero has already completed the shot.

Therefore, the referee did not express anything about the ball and indicated that it was a goal kick.

That's why the Manchester City fans who came from afar are so angry, so crazy, and so unhappy.

In their opinion, this goal was a foul by Van Dijk and he should be sent off with a red card. Then Manchester City should also get a penalty kick. If you don't judge like this, your referee will be a black whistle!

Shhhhhhh!

The Manchester City fans frantically put pressure on the referee, but the referee remained unmoved and upheld the original decision.

This angered the Manchester City fans. If there were not enough security personnel on site, I really don’t know what these over-emotional Manchester City fans would do?

Tong Yi is not worried about this now, he is worried about Van Dijk's injury.

To be honest, he really doesn't want anything to happen to Van Dijk. Van Dijk is really too important to Crystal Palace.

At this moment, Wagner immediately led Van Dijk, who stood up, to the sidelines for treatment.

Seeing this, the Crystal Palace fans breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing the way Van Dijk walked, he should have no big problem, or even nothing.

Seeing this, Tong Yi breathed a sigh of relief, everything was fine.

And Manchester City fans have given up. How dare you, Van Dijk, have nothing to do? You are seeking death!

Because the Manchester City fans were mentally unbalanced, because it didn't look like Aguero was okay. He didn't get up at this time, and even the referee started to call for a stretcher to enter the field.

You Van Dijk is fine, our Aguero is seriously injured.

Depend on!

The Manchester City fans exploded instantly and their emotions collapsed.

They frantically cursed the Crystal Palace people, Van Dijk, and the referee of this game.
