Arsenal's original starting goalkeeper was Almunia, who knew that he was injured in the warm-up just now, and the old German goalkeeper Lehmann temporarily took his place.

Wen Sheng only learned about the news just now, he is not a superstitious person, but when he heard the news, he thought to himself that the Gunners are not in a good position, could it be that we really want to win this game?!

In addition to Lehmann, the substitute goalkeeper, Arsenal almost played against Crystal Palace with their strongest team, anyway, they only have the league, what kind of inexplicable rotation is there at this time?! Arsene Wenger doesn't fail to understand that.

Their players are much more famous than Crystal Palace, and Arsenal has an advantage in terms of historical records, but it was not one-sided in public opinion before the game, and it is generally believed that this game is a direct dialogue between the top four teams, and Crystal Palace has also shown good combat effectiveness, and the results of people against strong teams this season are there, especially against the top six teams so far they have only lost to Manchester City, and they have not lost to other teams, which fully shows that Wensheng's team is good at playing tough battles.

They didn't know that the players who played strong teams in the past were more calm, and the importance given to this game today was too much, and the Crystal Palace players were not very calm before the game.

Soon the pre-match ceremony ended, with Crystal Palace attacking from left to right in the red and blue home jersey and Arsenal in the yellow away jersey attacking from right to left.

Wen Sheng did not let his players hold steady at the beginning, but tried to give the opponent a strong block in the midfield and try to control the ball as much as possible.

The battle in midfield was immediately on the line, with Crystal Palace always the cleaner team with the fewest fouls and yellow cards of any of the 20 Premier League teams, but today they don't seem to be so clean.

Arsenal entered the better state and controlled the ball better in the midfield, in the 3rd minute, Cesc Fabregas made a long pass over the top in the midfield, Van Persie successfully countered offside, Van Persie volleyed, Speroni strained to save.

"Whew!" The fans at the scene let out exclamations, and the hearts of the Crystal Palace fans were pounding.

Wen Sheng's heart is also beating, this ball is too hanging.

Arsenal's strength is very good, the key mentality has not been very stable, against Manchester United they also seem to occupy the initiative on the field, but what is the use, in the end it is Manchester United who wins.

This group of young players is talented, such as Celau Fabregas's non-stop long balls and Van Persie's movement, both of which are world-class.

Van Persie himself is to blame for not scoring.

He's just too confident in himself.

He was too confident in his marksmanship, of course he shot well, but Speroni moved fast enough.

If Van Persie stops the ball, Wen Sheng thinks that his probability of scoring is greater, but unfortunately Van Persie is so confident.

There was a problem in the midfield defence, and Fabregas couldn't get on the line, and De Bruyne defended it.

There were problems at the back, and it wasn't very successful to create offsides, McCarthy dragged behind, but he had a bit of a problem with concentration when defending.

"Focus!" Wen Sheng stood on the sidelines and yelled loudly, the main problem is still in defense, Arsenal is a single arrow after all, no matter how you say it, you should keep an eye on it.

McCarthy secretly blamed himself, he knew that Wen Sheng had high hopes for him, and his performance in the team during this period of time had indeed improved the back line a lot, but was he a little flustered?!

Arsene Wenger is happy to see Crystal Palace's opening tactics come to fruition, he is afraid that Crystal Palace will shrink, which means that his team will be difficult to attack, and the team has not been in good form recently, how many times have they fallen on the opponent's bus.

Wen Sheng still did not change his tactics and continued to ask the team to fight them for control in midfield.

The players are not in great shape and there are frequent individual mistakes.

In the 6th minute, De Bruyne controlled the ball, Diaby got on and broke the ball from De Bruyne's feet, Arsenal launched a fast attack, and Arshavin took the ball to cut inside and shoot to complete Arsenal's second attack.

Wen Sheng vs. Lee. Mason was dissatisfied, and the Crystal Palace fans also booed collectively, it would be strange to say that Diaby did not foul this ball, and Diaby could be seen pushing and kicking people from so far away.

"Damn, it's a fucking foul!" Wen Sheng walked straight to the fourth official, Mike. Dean, yelled at the yell.

"Wen, please calm down, man! Listen to the referee's decision! "Mike. Dean reassured him, "You can't do this! ”

"But that's a fucking foul! I will remember this time! This is the first time! Wen Sheng threw down the cruel words.

Arsene Wenger had also complained before, because Derry had taken Arshavin and Mason still didn't say anything about it, and Wensheng is now still in color.

In the seventh minute, Crystal Palace fouled on the edge of the box, Arsenal took a free-kick, and Koscielny pressed McCarthy to complete another shot for Arsenal.

Ten minutes passed and Arsenal had four shots on goal, and if they didn't have to complete 30 shots in the whole game, it was strange not to score.

Wen Sheng was a little disappointed, he didn't know if what he said before the game was listened to by the players, in short, the feeling now is that the players are too slow to get into the state, and they didn't find any feeling, plus tactical reasons, Crystal Palace exposed a gap in the midfield, allowing Arsenal to easily find space to shoot and pass.

"Let's recycle it! If this continues, the team must not be beaten into a sieve?! Lawrence ran over to give Wensheng advice.

He then issued instructions to the players on the pitch to recycle and reduce the space for defence.

Arsenal were then locked in a tough battle.

In the 17th minute, Van Persie received a cross from Nasri in the box and snuggled up to McCarthy to shoot, which was not much of a threat in itself, but his shot touched Benatia's leg and changed the course of the ball, and Speroni saved an empty save and the ball refracted into the net.

Crystal Palace, who struggled to defend, still conceded a goal.

Van Persie ran to the Arsenal fans in a carnival.

It's so close, and you're worried about the fans?!

Arsenal fans packed the away fan zone, some even mixed in with Crystal Palace fans.

"Fack!" Wen Sheng spat on the ground fiercely, what can you say?!

The players are starting to get a feel for it, and the goal is a slap in the face.

It was a huge demoralisation blow to Crystal Palace's side, but Arsenal have scored another goal in the last five minutes.

In the 23rd minute, Arsenal got a corner kick opportunity, and Crystal Palace's corner kick defense made another mistake, and captain Derry accidentally put himself on own.

0:2 behind!

Wen Sheng was furious to the extreme, and it was obvious that his luck was not on his side in this game.

"Foul! It's a fucking foul! He shouted again.

The reason is also very good, Van Persie obviously has a pull on Delhi.

Crystal Palace players also surrounded Mason for an explanation, but Mason insisted that the goal was valid.

Crystal Palace fans were unhappy with Mason's decision and scolded him.

"Shit!"

"I didn't give birth to a son!"

"Say, how much did you charge!"

It didn't work, Mason was the biggest on the pitch, and Palace were 2-0 down.

Wen Sheng was worried that the team would collapse, but what he didn't expect was that the Crystal Palace players themselves encouraged each other and cheered up, and their condition on the pitch gradually improved, and Arsenal continued to attack for so long, and also slowed down the tempo.

The game fell into a stalemate, Wenger will also play ineffective possession, two goals ahead, at this time there is no need to control when to use, Arsenal undoubtedly have the upper hand in possession, but they have never been able to attract Crystal Palace to press the formation, and it is really impossible for Crystal Palace to rebound.
