Legendary godfather of green grass

March 2013, 3, Brighton, England, United States.National Express Community Court.

What is being held here today is the 2012th round of the 2013-38 season of the British Championship. The two sides are the home team Brighton and the visiting team Crystal Palace.

This is the second M23 road derby in the Championship this season.

Today's starters are as follows:

Home Team: Brighton, Manager: Tarico, Formation: 4-2-3-1

Goalkeeper: Kushchak

Back four [left to right]: Calderon, Greer, Matthew Upson and Wayne Bridge

Double midfielders: David Lopez and Breed Carter

Three forwards [from left to right]: Orlandi, Barkley and Kazenga Lualua

Solo striker: Jose Ulloa

Visiting team: Crystal Palace, head coach: Tong Yi, formation: 4-2-1-3

Goalkeeper: Edward

Back four [from left to right]: Ward, Laporte, Van Dijk and Zhang Linpeng

Double midfielders: Jedinak and Kanter

Single midfielder: Pogba

Three strikers [from left to right]: Zaha, Murray and Mane

Today, Brighton and the two sides changed a lot in the first round. They even changed their formation.

It can be seen that Tarico wants to make his own brand on this Brighton team, completely abandoning his predecessor Poyet.Great changes have also taken place in the starting lineup. Dunk, the young man who started last time at the central defender position, was abandoned.

Dunk performed very poorly in the first round of the match between the two sides and was sent off with a red card.

Since that game, he has rarely had a chance to play.

Because the head coach Poyet who valued him was fired, Tarico, who is coming up now, doesn't pay much attention to him, and he doesn't like him a bit, so his opportunities are few and far between.

It's really a king and a courtier!

He was replaced by Upson, who has a rich resume. He has played for Arsenal many times and also played for Crystal Palace. He came to Brighton during the winter transfer.He is a central defender with rich experience and outstanding strength. He became the main central defender as soon as he arrived in Brighton, and he is Tarico's reliance.

The right back has also changed. The experienced right back Bridge, who was transferred to Manchester City in the winter, has become the main force of the team.

Obviously, in order to hit the Premier League, Brighton spent a lot of money on transfers this winter.

It can be seen that the top management of the team has a lot of support for Tarico.

If he can't lead the team to upgrade this season, he will really be finished.

Lopez, who once played in La Liga in the midfield, started today. He should be able to form a very good attack combination with Calderon and Orlandi.In addition, Lualua, who was injured in the first round of the two sides, returned from injury, and it is too difficult to start today.

On the front line is Ulloa, who was introduced by Tarico in the winter transfer.

Ulloa is an Argentine center forward introduced from La Liga Almeria. In the first half of the season, he played 18 games in La Liga and scored 4 goals. His state has declined.Because in the last season, he played 38 times in La Liga and scored 28 goals, he can be called the team's first center forward.

Due to his declining form, the team sold him to Brighton.

However, after coming to Brighton, Ulloa performed very well. He scored a goal in the first game of the team and staged a hat-trick in the 35 rounds of the English Championship this season. Help the team beat Huddersfield four to one.

Even in the last round, Ulloa scored twice.

Ulloa's state is very good recently, which makes Brighton fans full of confidence. They think they have a chance to win this game because they have Ulloa!

Tarico is also full of confidence in their team, and he also firmly believes that Brighton will definitely win this game.

Regardless of the fact that they have a 4-2-3-1 defensive formation, it is not.

At the beginning of the game, Brighton launched a fierce attack.

They don't just want to win, they want revenge!

They not only want to win this game, but also win big!

The Brighton fans howled crazily, reminding the Brighton players to attack crazily, to press up, not to give Crystal Palace a chance to breathe, and to let them understand who is in charge here.

Seeing Brighton's tactics on the pitch, Tong Yi was slightly taken aback.

He did not expect Brighton to make such a choice.

When seeing their formation, Tong Yi thought that the Brighton people would defend and counterattack.If that is the case, it will be a little troublesome for Crystal Palace.But Brighton attacked, which was much easier for the Crystal Palace people.

The strength of the Brighton people is not very strong. The Brighton people have miscalculated their strength.

After the start of the game, it seemed that Brighton had taken the absolute initiative and frequently threatened the restricted area of ​​​​Crystal Palace.But many times, the football under their feet was cut off at the front of the penalty area, and their offense came to an abrupt end.Their only shot was also a long shot, which was no threat to Edward.

However, it looks like Brighton is very good on the scene, occupying an absolute advantage.

Tarico on the sidelines kept nodding when he saw this, yes, if we continue to play like this, our Brighton team must win.

The Brighton fans howled with excitement and supported their team. They wished they could rush into the field to help their players play.

Brighton must win this game!

We Brighton are the kings of the M23!

Boom!

Calderon, who came up from the side of Brighton, passed the football into the Crystal Palace penalty area with a cross.In the penalty area, Laporte jumped high and headed Ulloa, so that Ulloa had no chance to shake his head.

With a bang, the football hit Ulloa's head, and immediately changed direction and quickly missed the goal and flew out of the baseline.

It's too far away!

Edward didn't respond at all!

clap clap clap!

The Brighton fans at the scene gave Ulloa a thunderous applause. He felt that if he continued to play like this, Ulloa would definitely score a goal, and Brighton would definitely win this game.

Tarico saw hope and signaled Brighton's players to attack and besiege the Crystal Palace team.

They want to show their momentum at their home court to avenge the massacre of the two sides in the first round.

Seeing this, Tong Yi shook his head slightly, Brighton will lose this game!

The Brighton people's defense line is getting higher and higher, and the defense line is a little empty, and the Brighton people themselves didn't notice it.Perhaps Tarico has noticed, but he doesn't think Crystal Palace can attack here, after all, they have an absolute advantage now.

attack!

Go on the offensive!

On the field, Brighton's midfielder Lopez swayed the ball past Pogba who was rushing up. He is very confident in the skills under his feet...

Boom, the football under Lopez's feet was stabbed off by Kante who suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.

The football quickly rolled to Pogba's feet, and Pogba immediately came to the ball and turned around, quickly holding the ball forward.

Counterattack, Crystal Palace's counterattack is coming!

Tarico's face was very ugly, and he waved his teeth and claws to signal his players to return to defense quickly.

The Brighton players immediately retreated crazily, keeping up with the pace of Murray, Zaha and Mane who advanced forward, preventing these guys from receiving the ball.They know that as long as these guys don't catch the ball, their goal will not be threatened.

Seeing the defensive players retreat crazily, Pogba's anger rose in his heart.

How dare you ignore me?

it is good!

Pogba, who dribbled the ball at high speed, suddenly shot angrily at a position 33 meters away from the goal, and the football shot towards Brighton's goal quickly.

There was no one within five meters of Pogba to intercept the interference, and he completed the shot very comfortably.

The quality of this shot is very high, the football soars quickly, and goes straight to the upper right corner of the goal!

Kushchak flew sideways at the first time, but he didn't touch the football at all. Pogba's long-range shot was too tricky.

World wave!

The football flew straight into the top right corner of the Brighton goal!

In the 36th minute of the first half, the balance of the game was broken. Crystal Palace scored a goal, and it was Pogba who scored!

The Brighton fans were very angry. They immediately roared crazily, cursing the head coach of this game crazily, damn Tarico, look what you have done?

Tarico's face was also livid. He immediately came to the sidelines and waved wildly to signal the Brighton people to attack wildly.

Brighton's players pressed wildly and left the rear empty. At the end of the first half, the Crystal Palace people seized another opportunity.Kanter, who stole the ball in the backcourt, sent a precise long pass.Murray in the frontcourt got ahead of Upson and ferried the football header to Mane who was following up.

Mane volleyed sideways without stopping the ball, and the football pierced through Kuschak's wicket and flew into the goal.

Two to zero!

The faces of the Brighton fans were very ugly, and the scene was dead silent!

Tariko's face was even more gloomy.

At the beginning of the second half of the game, under Tong Yi's signal, Crystal Palace, which was leading by two goals, actually grabbed the victory, which was beyond everyone's expectations.The Brighton players also did not expect it. There was a loophole in the defense. After receiving the ball from the wing, Zaha went straight into the penalty area. After attracting the defense, he pushed the football flat into the middle.

Murray, who followed closely, fell directly to the ground and shoveled the football into Brighton's goal.

Three to zero!

massacre!

Crystal Palace is going to slaughter Brighton again!

The Brighton fans were very angry, very angry, and shouted neatly: "Get out of class, get out of Tariko!"

Tariko's face was pale, and his eyes were angry and fierce.

This game absolutely can't go on like this, the offense is overwhelmed by me, and I must move the score back to me.

With a bang, Brighton's players all rushed into the Crystal Palace's half, attacking frantically.

Not to mention, the Brighton people's offense was still very serial during this period, which caused a lot of trouble for the Crystal Palace people.Especially this guy, Ulloa, who is in very good condition. His two consecutive shots were slightly wide. Even last time, he was ahead of Van Dijk and smashed the football into the Crystal Palace goal with a fierce header. on the pillar.

The Brighton people are also out of luck!

Otherwise, he would still be able to break through the Crystal Palace goal.

If this goal is scored, the result of this game will definitely go in another direction.

The Brighton people have played very good games during this period, and there are many opportunities.It's a pity that they didn't seize the opportunity. Edward's state today is also very good, and the successive servants of the gods saved the opponent's inevitable shots.

This made Speroni on the bench very anxious!

Edward's condition is too good. At this time, the head coach Tong Yi should not replace Edward as the team's starting goalkeeper with his newly injured self.

Speroni felt very helpless, his injury really came at the wrong time!

Just as the game was about to end, Crystal Palace got a chance to take a corner kick.

Zaha drove the football into Brighton's penalty area with an arc. In the penalty area, Laporte made a high jump header and scored the goal, rewriting the score to [-]-[-]!

In the end, Crystal Palace defeated Brighton 23-[-] away and swept Brighton again, proving that they are the king of the M[-] road!
