January 31, 2015, Selhurst Park, South London, England.

What is being held here today is a focus game in the 23rd round of the 2014-2015 Premier League season. Crystal Palace plays Everton at home. The scene was packed with people, with red flags waving and gongs and drums roaring!

The fans of the Crystal Palace home team sang their club's anthem in unison and cheered for their club.

Obviously, Crystal Palace fans hope that Crystal Palace can win this game.

After all, this is their chance to top the Premier League table.

As long as Chelsea stumbles against Manchester City in this round, Crystal Palace will have a chance to surpass Chelsea.

So, how could Crystal Palace hope for Everton to win at this point?

Crystal Palace must win this game!

Before the game, Crystal Palace midfielder De Bruyne was interviewed by media reporters. He said, "We all know the importance of this game, and we all know what to do in this game! We are at this time We don’t dare to cause trouble for our boss, we will definitely give our best in this game.”

Yes, De Bruyne made it very clear. The owners and wives of his club were watching from the sidelines in this game. If they lose this game, the Crystal Palace players will not have a good life.

Therefore, all Crystal Palace players will definitely give their best in this game.

De Bruyne also said, "Our team is very well prepared for this game, and Everton's tactics have been thoroughly studied by us. In this game, our Crystal Palace will definitely win, I am confident!" "

De Bruyne's words were naturally supported by the Crystal Palace fans and they applauded.

However, Everton fans sneered.

Evertonians think that Crystal Palace players are crazy about wanting to win. Do you, Crystal Palace, also want to beat us, Everton? Let’s dream!

Just watch and see how our Lukaku teaches you how to be a good person in this game!

Lukaku will definitely explode today and will definitely kill everyone!

Let me ask you whether you are afraid of taxation.

Crystal Palace people, this game is over for you.

Everton's Lukaku also accepted interviews with media reporters when he stepped into the competition venue. He said, "When I return to this venue, I will only feel familiar and not at all unfamiliar. I will definitely perform very well here. You all just wait. In this game, I, Lukaku, will Take over the game!”

See

No, Lukaku is so confident.

We, Everton, will definitely win this game, and your Crystal Palace has nothing to do with it.

Everton's head coach Martinez also accepted interviews with media reporters before the game. He said, "Of course I know that Crystal Palace is still very good and their abilities are good. But so what? We at Everton Is our strength poor? Is our Everton's ability poor? Now that we have Romelu, we have the confidence to defeat all opponents, including your Crystal Palace. We, Everton, will definitely win this game. .”

See, this is the confidence of Evertonians.

Crystal Palace fans feel that Evertonians are really crazy. Do they really think that Lukaku can change the world? If Lukaku was so good, would Van Gaal be willing to put him on the reserve bench for half a season? If you think about it with your brain, it won't be like this.

This guy Lukaku has some abilities, but if you expect too much from his performance, then we can only wish you can still laugh after the game.

In this game, Everton has no chance at all!

"Viewers, fans, long time no see, hello! I am the Mortensen you are familiar with, and today I will be commentating on this game with my partner Alan." BBC Sports is naturally interested in this game. The game was broadcast nationally.

Shearer also greeted the audience across the country, "Hello fans across the UK, I am Alan Shearer. Today our BBC Sports will bring you the 23rd round of the 2014-2015 Premier League season. Crystal Palace vs. Evers at home. Dayton's game. This is a game that media reporters call a game between Lukaku and Crystal Palace, or even a game between Lukaku and David. This game is really worth looking forward to!"

Yes, the media reporters made this game very hot before the game. This game was even as hot as the strong showdown between Chelsea and Manchester City.

Otherwise, BBC Sports would not broadcast this game live nationwide.

There are still many things to watch in this game.

Mortensen continued, "Before the game, the grievances between the two teams have been thoroughly reported by media reporters. I believe the fans and friends in front of the TV are also very aware of it. I won't say more here. I just want to ask Alan, who do you think will win this game?"

When Mortensen asked the question, TV

The fans in front of the machine already knew Shearer's answer.

After all, Shearer is the most solid "receiver" in the UK, and he must definitely support Tong Yi.

Sure enough, Shearer said, "Of course I am optimistic about Crystal Palace. Crystal Palace is obviously stronger than Everton in terms of strength, and this is their home court. Do you think David will let Everton in this game?" Are people having a good time? Evertonians want to take victory away from here? I think this is a dream! David must have made all the preparations, you Evertonians have no chance!"

Mortensen also smiled and nodded, and it was indeed not beyond his expectation.

Mortensen looked at Shearer and asked, "Alan, you have to know that Everton introduced Lukaku in the winter transfer. And after the start of next season, Lukaku has already played in the past three rounds of the league. There are 5 goals, and the scoring efficiency is very amazing. Do you think he will not cause trouble to Crystal Palace in this game, and will not push Crystal Palace into trouble?"

Shearer had already expected it and said, "I don't deny that Lukaku is capable, but do you really think that Lukaku's strength will definitely be able to break through the Crystal Palace's defense?"

Mortensen held Shearer firmly in place, gesturing for him to continue.

Shearer continued, "You all know that Lukaku is great. Don't David know? Don't the players at Crystal Palace know? You must know that the people at Crystal Palace know Lukaku better than the rest of us! After all, they were once I have had teammates, and even the coaching staff of Crystal Palace has coached Lukaku. They are well aware of Lukaku’s strengths and weaknesses. Do you think they will not take special care of Lukaku? Do you think they will not know how to do it? Limit Lukaku?"

hiss!

Mortensen gasped because he thought what Hiller said made sense.

Even at this time, the Crystal Palace coaching staff knows Lukaku better than the Everton coaching staff. Do you think Lukaku will perform well in this game?

Mortensen looked at Shearer and said, "It seems that there is some truth in what you said. Looking at it this way, it is really difficult for Everton to defeat Crystal Palace. Because they rely on Lu Kaku has been thoroughly studied by the Crystal Palace people, will Lukaku get a chance?"

Hearing this, the fans in front of the TV became silent and worried.

They have to admit that what Shearer said really makes sense. People in Crystal Palace now know Lukaku better than Everton people. Do you think Lukaku can perform well in this game? ?

Even if it is optimistic

Everyone at Everton will find it difficult, right?

At this time, Everton fans were not as arrogant as before, and they were all a little worried. Because they also felt that Hiller was right.

Moreover, this guy Tong Yi also likes to pay attention to these details and like to target some players for whom they have clear information. This is exactly what Tong Yi wants, and Tong Yi will definitely conduct detailed research and decision-making. So in this game, Lukaku may not necessarily have any outstanding performance.

Now Lukaku and Martinez are confident.

"And in terms of the recent state, Crystal Palace should be much better. It will be very difficult for Everton to defeat Crystal Palace at this time! Okay, the players from both sides have already played. Let us introduce to you the results of both sides today. Starting list." Mortensen said excitedly immediately, and immediately turned over the starting list of both sides.

Today, the starting lineups of both sides are as follows

Home team Crystal Palace, head coach Tong Yi, formation 4213

edouard

The back four from left to right Robertson, Laporte, Van Dijk and Carvajal

Double defensive midfielder Paulinho and Kante

Single attacking midfielder De Bruyne

The front three from left to right Salah, Ignacio and Mane

Visiting team Everton, head coach Martinez, formation 4231

goalkeeper robles

Back four from left to right: Baynes, Jagielka, Stones and Coleman

Double midfielder Gareth Barry and Mohamed Besic

Midfield three from left to right Miralas, Naismith and McGeady

Single striker Lukaku

This is the starting list of both sides. Young Ross Barkley did not start today, but Naismith. This was beyond many people's expectations. It can be seen that Martinez still has his own ideas. Naismith, Besic and Barry are all good at passing the ball, especially the first two are good at passing some long balls. Obviously, Everton's tactics in this game are more defensive counterattacks.

Lukaku is left in the frontcourt, and then others defend, looking for opportunities to counterattack, and then pass the football to Lukaku in front immediately, allowing Lukaku to attack the Crystal Palace defense.

To be honest, Shearer frowned slightly when he saw Everton's lineup and tactics. He believed that such tactics could defeat Crystal Palace.

Can you Evertonians withstand the super pressure from Crystal Palace in the midfield?
