Both teams played with their full strength in today's game. It can be seen that they attach great importance to this game. This is considered the first official match between the two sides in the new season. Of course, strictly speaking, this game is also a friendly match, but it is also equivalent to the Premier League Super Cup, which is still very important.

If this game is played well, it will be a good start to the new season.

Moreover, this game can also win the first championship of the new season.

More importantly, the opponent in this game was the runner-up in the Premier League and FA Cup last season, and will also be one of Crystal Palace's most important competitors in the new season. Therefore, this game must be taken seriously.

Moreover, Chelsea made a very big move during the summer transfer this season, spending nearly 200 million in transfer fees. Their team has changed a lot and their strength has definitely improved. Therefore, at this time, it is good to test Chelsea in advance.

In this way, we can prepare for the new season.

The new Premier League season is about to start!

Therefore, in this game, Tong Yi sent out the entire main lineup, and stated before the game that he would go all out for this game to see what Chelsea is like in the new season?

Perhaps Conte also had such thoughts, so he also sent out the entire main lineup for this game.

This made the fans on both sides very happy.

Yes, let's not play the fictitious game between our two families. Let's just fight with real swords and guns.

With a beep, the referee Atkinson blew the whistle to start the game.

The first to kick off is the home team Crystal Palace.

Fans from both sides immediately became excited and cheered for the team in unison.

After waiting all summer, there is finally another competition.

They could also see that the players on both sides really didn't hide anything, and they fought hard as soon as they came up.

Of course, the fans on both sides of the scene have their own opinions.

The eyes of the Crystal Palace fans are all fixed on Ronaldo. After all, the outside world has been very hyped about Ronaldo recently. They all believe that Ronaldo is still the world's top striker. It is obvious that he came to Crystal Palace.

It has improved the strength of Crystal Palace, and Crystal Palace will be more competitive in the new season.

Moreover, Ronaldo's performance was very explosive before. Now they all want to see whether Ronaldo can perform as explosively as the media reporters think in official games?

The eyes of Chelsea people are focused on Lukaku and Bale. In the new season, they will also rely heavily on these two superstars. Chelsea's ability to win the championship this season depends on how well these two perform?

Let’s hope they don’t disappoint us!

To be honest, this game is really interesting to watch.

The first thing to watch is that this game is a direct dialogue between the Premier League champion and runner-up last season and the FA Cup champion and runner-up. Is this also a battle of revenge for Chelsea? Both sides have made major signings. How strong they will be in the new season depends on the performance of both sides in this game! Of course, the attention of this game is very high.

The second highlight is that Lukaku once again faces his old club Crystal Palace. There is no need to go into details about the grievances between the two sides. Every time they meet, there is always something to watch. Even before this game, Lukaku used Ignacio's injury to criticize Crystal Palace and humiliate Ignacio. This caused public outrage among Crystal Palace fans. What kind of performance did Lukaku perform in this game? , how Crystal Palace fans will deal with Lukaku, these are all interesting to watch!

The third point of interest is that Ronaldo and Bale, former members of Real Madrid's BBC team, met as opponents in this game. Who is more powerful between these two? Who can lead the team to victory in this game? This is also a point to watch!

The fourth highlight is naturally the showdown between famous coaches Tong Yi and Conte. Who can gain the upper hand and win this time?

…

There are many more things to watch like this. Naturally, the attention of this game is very high.

Moreover, other Premier League teams also hope to use this game to find out the strength of Crystal Palace and Chelsea in the new season, so that they can know themselves and their enemies. After all, the contenders for the Premier League title in the new season are not only Chelsea and Crystal Palace, but also other teams.

Naturally, this game has attracted unprecedented attention.

At this moment, Chelsea suddenly got a good opportunity.

Bell in the midfield passed the ball and made continuous high-speed breakthroughs, which aroused the excitement of the Chelsea fans at the scene. Awesome, Bale is so awesome. Even the Crystal Palace people can't stop Bale. This season our Chelsea will change our destiny against the will of heaven. We want revenge!

Damn Crystal Palace, you are done for today, you are doomed for the new season!

When facing Kanter, Bell sent the football out immediately. The football quickly rolled between Kanter's legs and rolled behind him. The football rolled directly to the feet of Lukaku behind Kanter. Lukaku suddenly shot out before Rudiger could pounce on him.

The football shot towards the Crystal Palace goal like a stream of light.

Lukaku's kick was so explosive that it felt like he was punching through the air when he swung his leg.

When the football flew past, Rudiger's cheek was scratched and hurt.

The ball speed is too fast.

"Beautiful cumshot!" The commentator on the scene was very excited and screamed with excitement. ??

The Chelsea fans at the scene cheered excitedly. This goal seemed to be a must-goal!

Can that damn Maignan of your Crystal Palace save this ball? He doesn't have this ability, you know! Without Alisson, your Crystal Palace goal is as vast as the sea. We at Chelsea can score if we want!

Crystal Palace people, listen to me, this ball will definitely go in!

Snapped!

Maignan gave all the Chelsea fans a hard slap with one palm, directly waking them up from their daydreams. And this blow was so hard that it made their cheeks burn, and they probably even left slap marks on their faces.

Chelsea fans looked very ugly.

They really didn't expect that this guy Maignan could actually pounce on the football. This was too fake.

The ball is so fast and the angle is so tricky!

Why does he, Maignan? He is not Alisson!

The commentators on the scene also expressed disbelief. This guy Maignan is simply a servant of God this time. Because in their eyes, this goal is indeed a must-goal!

Maignan's eagle spread its wings and saved the football. It's really unbelievable!

Tong Yi on the sidelines was very calm and not surprised. But he still stood up and gave Maignan a round of applause.

In his case, Maignan is not weak.

Lukaku's eyes widened in disbelief. He had already rushed out to celebrate the goal. In his opinion, there is no doubt that his goal will be scored, and almost no one can save his shot. However, what was unexpected was that this damn Maignan actually pounced.

so crazy!

Lukaku stared at Maignan closely, as if he wanted to engrave Maignan's appearance in his mind.

Corner kick, Chelsea got a corner kick opportunity.

William immediately ran into the corner kick and took the corner kick. William's footwork is indeed very good. He is very good at crossing and taking free kicks, which can be called a unique skill.

When William came to the corner kick, Chelsea fans felt full of expectations!

Then, the football that William saw was directly picked up by Maignan who rushed out, holding the moon in the air, and he also picked the football from Lukaku's head.

The Chelsea fans at the scene were in disbelief!

The on-site commentator Mortensen said: "No wonder China Tong is willing to sell Alisson. It turns out that the club already has a replacement. If Maignan can maintain this level this season, then he No worse than Alisson, he is a qualified Crystal Palace main goalkeeper.

Will! "

Hearing this, Conti couldn't help but shake his head. Damn it, is this West China's easy-going man's vision really so outrageous?

This is simply the Midas touch!

Is it true that every guy he likes can become a football superstar?

Conte couldn't help but take another look at Maignan, and then he was like a wild cat whose tail was stepped on and jumped in pain. He immediately ejected and wailed, "Defend! Get back and defend!"

Just now, their attention was focused on Maignan, and they were all shocked by this guy's performance. They had somewhat forgotten that Crystal Palace is a team with a very strong counterattack. Not only was Conte stunned, but the Chelsea players in the stadium were also shocked by Maignan. They did not turn around in their minds and did not immediately retreat to defend.

But Maignan did not give you Chelsea face. He threw the football with great force at the first opportunity and launched a quick counterattack.

De Bruyne in the midfield didn't stop the ball at all when Gueye pressed him. He directly turned his back to face the ball and swept the football to the side diagonally behind his body.

The football rolled quickly towards Mbappe, who was advancing at high speed from the wing!

Single-handedly, Crystal Palace got the opportunity to single-handedly!

The defensive players Alonso did not rush forward rashly, but followed Mbappe back step by step. He always blocked the line and prevented Mbappe from rushing forward with the ball.

But at this moment, Mbappe suddenly shot!

Thirty meters away from the goal, Mbappe, who was running, suddenly took a shot. It was so unconventional!

Shouldn't you have such a good opportunity to break through Chelsea's penalty area with the ball and challenge goalkeeper Courtois? Why did he suddenly shoot violently from a long distance? Isn't this a waste of opportunity...?

With a whoosh, the football flew directly into the goal against the lower edge of the intersection between the goal post and the crossbar.

It was an absolute blind spot. Even if Courtois was in front of the goal, he couldn't save the football!

Seeing this, the Chelsea fans looked extremely ugly.

Compared with Maignan's previous performance, this is a clear judgment!

"Beautiful, beautiful goal! Mbappe, the young French forward Mbappe from Crystal Palace sent an amazing and violent long-range shot! This violent long-range shot is like a Scud missile, it is really destructive, and there is no chance at all. Here. Courtois is already a very top goalkeeper, but in front of this ball, he still has no chance. Mbappe's kick is simply wonderful!" Mortensen said immediately.

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene shouted excitedly, shouting the names of Mbappe and Maignan.

Seriously, Crystal Palace fans are so happy.

As far as the offense and defense of the two teams, Crystal Palace and Chelsea, Crystal Palace completely defeated Chelsea!

Courtois's goalkeeping is not as good as Maignan's, and Lukaku's explosive shooting is not as good as Mbappe's. How can Chelsea compete with our Crystal Palace? The champion of the Premier League in the new season is still our Crystal Palace! Chelsea guys, give up, Chelsea will have nothing to do without you in the new season!
