At 12:45 on October 26, 2013, the 9th round of the 2013/14 English Premier League season was contested at Selhurst Park, and Arsenal challenged Crystal Palace away.

Crystal Palace Football Club is a professional football team based in London (south), England, founded in 1905 and home at Selhurst Park, now competing in the English Premier League.

In the 2009/10 season, Crystal Palace, who were playing in the Championship at the time, were taken over due to financial problems, and were deducted 10 points, finishing fourth from bottom and retaining only a Championship spot.

However, in the 2012/13 season, Crystal Palace finished fifth in the Championship and qualified for the promotion play-offs, where they won and were promoted to the Premier League.

From the first 40 years of the club's existence, Crystal Palace did not have its own crest. It wasn't until the late 1940s that the original team emblem came to be used in the image of a building in Hyde Park. But after that, the image of the eagle was added to the team emblem, and the nickname of Crystal Palace became "The Eagles".

The match was played at Selhurst Park, home of Crystal Palace. Selhurst Park, a 26,247-capacity stadium in south London, was inaugurated by the Mayor of London on 30 August 1924 with only one stand (now the main stand), with Crystal Palace losing 1-0 to Sheffield Wednesday in their opening game.

In 1953 flood lighting was added (some of which were still roofed in the main stands), but nine years later they were replaced by lighthouses at the four corners of the course. Selhurst Park did not make major improvements until Crystal Palace were promoted to the first division in 1969, with the addition of the Arthur Wait Stand and the conversion of the main stand to seating.

In 1983, Crystal Palace sold the back of the Whitehorse Lane and car park to Sainsbury's for £2 million to ease their financial difficulties.

In 1986, Charlton Athletic moved in with Crystal Palace to share Selhurst Park as their home stadium, marking the first agreement in England for a league team to share a stadium.

When Charlton Athletic returned to The Valley from the pitch, Wimbledon became a new tenant in 1991. The Holmesdale Grandstand was demolished in 1994 and a new two-storey, 8,500-seat grandstand was inaugurated a year later, while the roof of the main grandstand was replaced due to a leak.

In 2002 Wimbledon was allowed to move out of London, and in 2003 he officially moved out and changed his name to Milton Keynes. In 2008, Selhurst Park was jointly owned by HBOS and former Tottenham Hotspur vice-chairman Paul Kemsley's Rockgroup, and was loaned to Crystal Palace on a 25-year loan of £1.2 million per year.

However, the former was acquired by LloydsBankingGroup in January 2009 and the latter underwent a debt restructuring in June, with PWC, as the asset manager, selling the course for cash when the market price is right.

This is the first time the two sides have met since 2005. Arsenal have won four and drawn three of their last seven games against Crystal Palace, with Crystal Palace's last away win coming in 1994. The two sides have met 33 times in history, with Arsenal having the upper hand with 20 wins, 10 draws and 3 losses. Flamini returned from injury and Cazorla also rotated back into the starting line-up. Former Arsenal centre-forward El Shamacher started for Crystal Palace.

It is still the familiar 3-2-3-2 double back formation: the goalkeeper is No. 1 Szczesny; The defenders are No. 3 - Sagna, No. 4 - Mertesacker, No. 6 - Koscielny; The midfielders are No. 18 Zhang Xu and No. 8 Arteta, and the midfielders are No. 1 Ramsey, No. 11 Ozil and No. 19 Cazorla; Up front are No.12 Giroud and No.14 Theo Walcott.

Fermaelen and Wilshere and Bendtner were all on the bench.

At the beginning of the game, Zhang Xu did not release the water because the Crystal Palace was once a place where his predecessor Fan insisted on staying, but directly launched a fierce attack.

In the third minute, Sagna crossed from the right and Giroud's header from 12 yards went just wide.

In the 8th minute of the game, Zhang Xu's long-range shot was slightly over the crossbar.

In the 14th minute of the game, Crystal Palace finally had a good attack. Former Arsenal Academy winger Thomas crosses from the left and Banan heads high from 12 yards.

In the 18th minute of the game, Zhang Xu passed the ball, and Walcott's shot from outside the edge of the penalty area also went into the arms of the Crystal Palace goalkeeper.

In the first 20 minutes, Arsenal attacked significantly more than Crystal Palace. Thunder and lightning are frequent, but what about the effect? But it's not good, everyone in Arsenal, including Zhang Xu, doesn't seem to have shooting boots, and they can't shoot no matter how they shoot.

In the 33rd minute of the game, Zhang Xu's header was ferried, Walcott's shot in the box was blocked, and Ozil's curling shot from the edge of the box missed the left post, and Cazorla missed a header in front of the goal.

In the 35th minute of the game, Ramsey passed the ball, and Cazorla's small-angle pass from the right side of the penalty area slid past the goal.

In the 41st minute, Mesut Ozil crossed from the left, but Giroud missed a header and the ball grazed the far corner post.

In the 44th minute of the game, Mesut Ozil crossed from the left again, and Giroud **** stopped the ball and volleyed the rebound ball was confiscated by Crystal Palace goalkeeper Speroni.

That was the end of the first half. In the second half, Zhang Xu really didn't believe in this evil, and he still led his teammates to launch a fierce offensive against the goal of Crystal Palace.

His efforts were not in vain, and soon, he paid off.

In the 47th minute of the game, Zhang Xu forcibly burst into the penalty area with the ball, and in the face of three Crystal Palace defenders, he made a fake shot and a real pass, and stabbed the football to Walcott's feet with his toes.

1 to 0! Arsenal take the lead by one goal! Still the team that has kept scoring in every game this season.

After taking the lead, seeing the team finally break the cycle of not scoring goals, Arsenal's overall morale was suddenly high, while Crystal Palace was a little low, but after all, this is the home of the Crystal Palace team, and no matter what, they don't want to lose on their own doorstep. As a result, Crystal Palace played a little more aggressively and increased the number of attacks.

In the 50th minute, Crystal Palace defender Delaney cleared the ball and deflected Giroud's leg, and the ball grazed the right post.

Arsenal came close to doubling their lead in the 54th minute when Sagna's cross from the right was headed wide by an unmarked Olivier Giroud from close range.

Just when the Arsenal people thought that there would be no suspense in the game, an accident happened.

In the 65th minute of the game, Arteta was sent off for a tactical foul on Crystal Palace's Shamacher, who broke through with the ball at the back. The last Arsenal player to score in a single league game and receive a red card was Ian Wright in 1996.

Zhang Xu felt incomprehensible about Arteta's foul, he was standing by his side at that time, and there was no need to use foul tactics to block the opponent's attack.

Zhang Xu believes that regardless of whether the opponent breaks through Arteta or not, he is confident enough to stop the opponent.

Well, maybe that's what you say!

Zhang Xu could only comfort himself like this, and then adjusted the formation, standing in position before manager Arsene Wenger made adjustments.

Arsene Wenger soon made a change, with Wilshere replacing Olivier Giroud. Then Monreal also replaced Cazorla and played with Zhang Xu in the back.

Seeing Arsenal sent off, the whole Crystal Palace team seemed to see the hope of equalizing or even overtaking the score, and immediately launched a fierce offensive.

In the 74th minute of the game, Crystal Palace's Dick Gacoy passed, and Ward's powerful shot in front of the penalty area was blocked by Zhang Xu and hit the crossbar and popped up. Zhang Xu then cleared a corner, and Jedinak's volley in front of the penalty area was easily saved by Szczesny.

In the 82nd minute of the game, Walcourt passed the ball, and Monreal's shot from the left side of the small penalty area was blocked.

In the 86th minute of the game, Monreal crossed, and Ozil volleyed wide.

Arsenal doubled the score in the 87th minute when Ramsey forced a cross from the left side of the penalty area, and Walcott headed it over from the edge of the six-yard box!

But it was saved by the opponent's goalkeeper, Zhang Xu just received the saved football, and shot directly with his feet! Football hits the net!

Two to zero! Arsenal seal the win and continue to lead the league!

Crystal Palace, who had just sacked their manager, unfortunately suffered six consecutive defeats. (To be continued.) )
