Chapter 217: Premier League Rankings

Without hesitation, the running equation concentrates the strength of the whole body on the right foot.

He volleyed the ball like a ball lightning bolt across the sky and flew into the top left corner of the goal at great speed!

The score is 0-1!!

Immediately after the goal, he rushed to the sidelines, knelt on his legs, and left scratches on the turf silkily.

This goal can be said to be impeccable! Hit the absolute dead end! There is no way to stop a world-class save!

Goalkeeper Guaita glanced at his teammates at the back and folded his hands on his hips helplessly.

In short, he felt that he could interrupt Arsenal's attack with a tactical foul from outside the box in time before the goal.

At the end of the first half,

The score was 0-1.

Despite the intensity of the pitch, only one goal was scored by both sides.

Professor Arsene Wenger finally smiled in the stands for the first time in a long time and chatted with the people around him.

Shortly after the start of the second half,

Crystal Palace launched a wave of rapid grabs, which caught Arsenal a little off guard,

After stealing the ball. Milivojevic crosses in front of goal near the bottom line on the right.

Macarthur was quick and slotted a shot near the penalty spot.

The ball shot like a bullet at the goal, but it hit goalkeeper Leno right at the foot.

Arsenal escaped,

The home crowd sighed,

Many people can see that so far in the game, Crystal Palace have not scored many good goals, and if they don't take advantage of the opportunity, they will be punished.

In the 59th minute, Arsenal regained the rhythm of the game, cutting inside from the right and into the box.

He weaved his way between the defenders like a leisurely walk before shooting from a tight angle.

But

His shot missed the target and the ball grazed the post and flew off the line.

Arsenal almost doubled the score,

However, his teammates only slightly regretted the goal.

After all, no one can grasp every shot.

The game went on, and every minute was full of confrontation......

In the 64th minute, Zaha received a pass from a teammate in the box. He turned and shot, and the ball went over the crossbar,

The home fans were taken aback.

However, because of the offside first, it was ruled invalid.

This is a wake-up call for Arsenal, and Crystal Palace's attacking ability is also very good.

In the 72nd minute, Arsenal cut off the pass of Crystal Palace, and immediately formed a counterattack, and both wings flew together!

Thomas, with quick movements, sent a precise through ball through the opposition defence.

The soccer ball found the equation that was inserted forward,

Advancing to the top of the arc of the penalty area, the equation forcibly kicks a powerful kick to the goal!

The soccer ball flies out quickly on the ground!

The goalkeeper fell to the ground in time and did not block the shot.

However, the ball slammed into the far post and bounced to the back post.

OK

Saka also rushed up from the left flank and scored a goal with a follow-up shot!

0-2!!

Saka laughed, pointing to the equation to thank him for the assist, as he stepped back to the sidelines to celebrate his goal.

Equation didn't mind, and also trotted towards Saka with a smile.

And after being two goals down, it was a complete irritation for the Crystal Palace players.

After Zaha got a through ball from a team-mate, he was like a bolt of lightning, forming a breakthrough in an instant, and then on the right side of the penalty area, he didn't hesitate to get up and hit the goal.

The ball arcs in the air, but it misses just wide of the goal.

In the 81st minute, Arsenal launched another onslaught.

Equation takes the ball on the right and dribbles all the way into the box.

In the face of goalkeeper Guaita's block, he did not hesitate and directly kicked a shot from a small angle.

The soccer ball is like a cannonball out of the chamber,

Although he was pounced on by goalkeeper Guaita,

But football still relied on inertia to drill into the goal.

Just when the fans of Crystal Palace felt that the sky was falling,

Suddenly, the referee ran to the sidelines to watch the VAR replay.

After a VAR review, the referee determined that the equation was offside when receiving the ball, and the goal was invalid.

In the 88th minute, Crystal Palace did not give up the game, how to say that today's game is also a London derby.

They attacked again from the right, and Benteke broke through and got up to play the ball to the back of the box.

This ball found Zaha at the back point,

In the face of the falling football, Zaha directly kicked the goal.

Goalkeeper Leno struggles to save,

However, the ball that was thrown out was back at the feet of Macarthur at Crystal Palace by mistake.

At this moment, Macarthur did not waste the opportunity and hit the goal again.

Saliba on the goal line, although he touched the football,

But there was nothing they could do to stop the ball from rolling into the net.

Crystal Palace finally pulled a goal back,

But they didn't have time to celebrate, and hurriedly returned to the midfield with the football,

Arsenal were not affected by the goal,

Next, the equation also came back from the front court to participate in organizing the pass, and stabilized the rhythm of the pass at a very fast speed.

With such precision in passing, it was almost impossible for Palace to find another chance to score.

Football comes and goes at the feet of the Arsenal players, and time passes quickly.

Beep –

With a whistle blowing.

The game is over.

The Arsenal fans who came to watch the away game all let out a boiling sound of celebration.

The players on the field hugged happily and celebrated the victory.

Professor Arsene Wenger in the stands also stood up and gave applause to the players on the field.

After the 21st round of the Premier League,

Arsenal have 39 points and are firmly in fourth place.

First place, Manchester City, 47 points.

Second place, Manchester United, 41 points.

Third place, Liverpool, 40 points.

Fourth, Arsenal, 39 points.

After the game, the Palace players left the pitch unfrustrated, thanking the fans in the stands who still supported the team.

Zaha was interviewed as he passed through the mixed interview area.

"There was news that Arsenal were interested in bringing you in, but after losing this game today, do you have any thoughts?" The reporter asked him.

Zaha thought for a moment and said: "We played well in this game and if we had taken our chances, maybe the result would have been different. But football is like that, full of uncertainty. Hopefully, we will learn our lessons. ”

'As for the rumours about me and Arsenal, I'm happy to get attention from other clubs. But when it comes to transfers, it needs to be decided at the right time, by the club and me. Now, I'm fighting for Crystal Palace with all my heart. ”

Although there was not much of a problem with Zaha's remarks, they were quickly reposted on the Internet and caused a lot of discussion among Arsenal fans.

If Zaha moves to Arsenal this season, making their squad stronger,

Well, after the captain goes to Inter Milan, maybe they won't lose so many league points.

And the reason why Zaha's transfer did not work out was because Crystal Palace's asking price was too high.

Thankfully, though, the equation returned to Arsenal in the winter window, putting the team's results back on track. (End of chapter)
