303: Crystal Palace reach the last 8 of the Europa League

Lost!

Crystal Palace did lose to Manchester City and was eliminated from the FA Cup.

However, the Crystal Palace fans were not angry at all, much less angry.

There is nothing unacceptable about this.

This season, Crystal Palace won the League Cup and is still ranked first in the Premier League. They have successfully relegated from the Premier League early. What else are they dissatisfied with?

What's more, Crystal Palace also reached the round of 16 in the Europa League.

Crystal Palace fans are already satisfied.

Crystal Palace have been very successful this season.

The fans of Crystal Palace are very satisfied, and they have no complaints or dissatisfaction with Tong Yi at all.

They even held high the banner of supporting Tong Yi.

Tong Yi is the greatest head coach in the history of their club, bar none.

Even if they are eliminated from the FA Cup, what can't be accepted?

Tong Yi also said after the game: "It is true that the Manchester City people performed better in this game. It is reasonable for them to win this game. Congratulations to them and Mr. Pellegrini. I hope they can make persistent efforts , to win the FA Cup this season."

Tong Yi also said: "Yes, I think Manchester City has the potential to win the FA Cup, and only the champion can beat our Crystal Palace team in the FA Cup!"

Webster and the others were speechless, Tong Yi is really Ah Q!

But this is indeed the case. The strength of Manchester City this season is indeed quite strong, and they may really win the FA Cup.

After the game ended, Tong Yi led the Crystal Palace players back to London non-stop.

Three days later, they will usher in the 2013th round of the 2014-29 Premier League season. Crystal Palace will face Southampton at home.

This is the third game played by Crystal Palace this week. If you add last weekend's league matches, there will be four games in ten days. The schedule is quite dense.

Originally, the game between Crystal Palace and Southampton this weekend was to be replayed today. After all, the games of Crystal Palace were too intensive during this period, and the FA and the English Professional Football League were also afraid of accidents.But for some unknown reason, the game was not postponed, and it was still held as scheduled.

Therefore, the players in Crystal Palace are relatively tired now.

Not to mention the players of Crystal Palace, even Tong Yi was very tired.

Tong Yi really doesn't have enough confidence in the upcoming league.

Of course, in this game, Tong Yi must be rotated.

With rotation, the Crystal Palace team is a little dangerous.

Southampton still has strength, and they also have a lot of outstanding players with good strength and potential.More importantly, their head coach Pochettino is a very good head coach.Pochettino has made Southampton very powerful, now ranked 9th in the Premier League, and has further capabilities.

In this game, although Southampton is playing away, compared to Crystal Palace, it is still waiting for work.

Therefore, Crystal Palace is still in doubt for this game.

Before the game came, Pochettino said directly: "Obviously, Southampton has an absolute advantage in this game. And I also believe that my players will not give the Crystal Palace people a chance. , we will win this game! No matter how good Tong Yi is, they can't win!"

However, before this game, Crystal Palace had played against Southampton twice this season.

The first meeting between the two sides was in the third round of the League Cup this season. Southampton lost 0 to 2 to Crystal Palace.Three days later, Southampton hosted Crystal Palace in the sixth round of the Premier League and lost 1-2.

So in the previous two matches, Southampton lost.

The Southamptons were out for revenge in this game.Moreover, Pochettino is full of confidence!

Southampton must win this game!

To be honest, even Tong Yi felt that Southampton had a great chance in this game.But Crystal Palace obviously won't give up, and this game will die to the end.

In this game, Tong Yi performed a rotation, and the starting lineup is as follows:

Goalkeeper: Edward

Back four [from left to right]: Schulz, Delaney, Laporte, Aurier

Double midfielders: Weigel and Milinkovic

Single midfielder: Gretzka

Three forwards [from left to right]: Bruno Alves, Ignacio and Sane

And Southampton's starting lineup looks like this:

Goalkeeper: Boruc

Back four [left to right]: Luke Shaw, Wundt, Lovren and Chambers

The midfield four [left to right]: Lallana, Schneiderlin, Jack Cork and Steven Davies

Forwards: Jay Rodriguez and Lambert

It can be seen that in this game, Southampton played almost all the main players, and they came here for victory.It is to take advantage of your illness to kill you, and to completely take down the Crystal Palace.

After the start of this game, the players of Crystal Palace did show a little fatigue.

Although they were very active and hardworking in the game, the effect was not very satisfactory.

Gretzka's form is particularly poor.

In the 77th minute of the game, Lallana on the wing suddenly pushed the baseline diagonally, and Luke Shaw, who rushed up, made a cross and directly passed the football into the penalty area of ​​Crystal Palace.

Lambert overwhelmed the veteran Delaney in the middle of the penalty area, and Taishan overwhelmed him, smashing the football into the Crystal Palace goal.

Edward pounced on the football, but still couldn't stop the football from flying into the goal.

One to zero, Southampton defeated Crystal Palace away.

Crystal Palace finally lost in the league!

Tong Yi's thoughts were all on this game.

To be honest, Tong Yi still attaches great importance to the Europa League.

Ludogorets' strength is not very strong, but Tong Yi has an idea to go one step further, defeating his opponent and successfully advancing to the next round.
