Today, Brighton has changed a lot from the first round match between the two sides. They even changed their formation.
It can be seen that Tarico wants to put his own mark on this Brighton team, completely abandoning the tactics of his predecessor Poyet. There have also been big changes in the starting lineup. The young man Dunk who started the last time at the center back 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 Poyet, the head coach who valued him, was fired, and now Tarico doesn't attach much importance to him, and even dislikes him a little, so he has very few opportunities.
He is truly an emperor and a courtier!
He was replaced by Upson. Upson has a rich resume. He has played for Arsenal and Crystal Palace many times. He came to Brighton during the winter transfer. He is an experienced central defender with outstanding strength. As soon as he arrived at Brighton, he became the main central defender and is Tarico's reliance.
The right back has also changed. The experienced right back Bridge, who was transferred in the winter and has played for Manchester City, has become the team's main force.
Obviously, in order to impact the Premier League, Brighton spent a lot of money on transfers this winter.
It can be seen that the team's top management supports Tarico very strongly.
If he cannot lead the team to promotion this season, he will really be finished.
In the midfield, Lopez, who has played in La Liga, started today. He should be able to form a very good attacking combination with Calderon and Orlandi. Also, Lualua, who was injured in the first round of the two sides, has returned from injury. It is too difficult to start today.
On the front line is Ulloa, whom Tarico introduced during the winter transfer.
Ulloa is an Argentinian center introduced from Almeria in the Spanish Second Division. In the first half of the season, he played 18 league games in the Spanish Second Division and scored a goal.
4 goals, the state has declined. Because last season, he played 38 times in the Spanish Second Division and scored 28 goals, making him the team's number one center.
As his form declined, the team sold him to Brighton.
However, after coming to Brighton, Ulloa performed very well. He scored in his first game with the team and scored a hat-trick in the 35th round of the English Championship this season. Helped the team beat Huddersfield 4-1.
Even in the last round, Ulloa scored twice.
Ulloa has been in very good form 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 confident in their team, and he also firmly believes that Brighton will definitely win this game.
Although it seems that they have a 4231 defensive formation, it is not.
From the beginning of the game, Brighton launched a ferocious attack.
They not only want to win, but also want revenge!
Not only do they want to win this game, but they also want to win big!
Brighton fans howled wildly, reminding Brighton players to attack crazily, press forward, and not give Crystal Palace a chance to breathe, to let them understand who has the final say here.
Seeing Brighton's tactics in the stadium, Tong Yi was slightly shocked.
He didn't expect Brighton to make such a choice.
When he saw their formation, Tong Yi would have thought that Brighton would defend and counterattack. If that happens, it will be a little troublesome for Crystal Palace. But when Brighton attacked, it was much easier for the Crystal Palace people.
The Brighton people are not very strong. The Brighton people misestimated their strength.
After the game started, it seemed that Brighton had taken the absolute initiative and frequently threatened the Crystal Palace penalty area. But many times, the football at their feet is cut off at the edge of the penalty area, and their offense comes to an abrupt end. Their only shot was a long shot, which posed no threat to Edward.
However, Brighton looks very good on the scene and has an absolute advantage.
Tarico on the sidelines kept nodding when he saw this. Yes, if we continue to play like this, our Brighton team will definitely win.
The Brighton fans at the scene 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 in Brighton are the kings of Route 23!
Boom!
Calderon came up from Brighton's wing and passed the ball into the Crystal Palace penalty area. In the penalty area, Laporte jumped up high and pushed Ulloa so hard that Ulloa couldn't even
There is no chance to shake your head.
With a bang, the football hit Ulloa's head, and it immediately changed direction and quickly missed the goal and flew out of the baseline.
Too far!
Edward didn't react at all! ??
Bang bang bang!
The Brighton fans at the scene gave Ulloa thunderous applause. He felt that if he continued to play like this, Ulloa would definitely score, and Brighton would definitely win this game.
Tarico saw hope and signaled Brighton's players to attack in a big way and lay siege to the Crystal Palace team.
They want to show momentum at their home court to avenge the massacre in the first round between the two sides.
Seeing this, Tong Yi shook his head slightly, Brighton will definitely lose this game!
The Brighton defense line pressed higher and higher, and the back line was a bit empty. The Brighton people themselves did not notice it. Maybe Tarico noticed it, but he didn't think Crystal Palace could attack here. After all, they now have an absolute advantage.
attack!
Keep attacking!
In the stadium, Brighton midfielder Lopez held the ball past Pogba who rushed towards him. He was very confident in his skills at his feet...
Boom, the football under Lopez's feet was knocked off by Kanter who suddenly appeared in front of him.
The football quickly rolled to Pogba's feet. Pogba immediately turned around and quickly held the ball forward.
Counterattack, Crystal Palace’s counterattack is coming!
Tarico's face was very ugly, and he showed his teeth and claws to signal his players to quickly return to defense.
Brighton's players immediately retreated crazily, trying to keep up with the advancing Murray, Zaha and Mane, 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 retreating crazily, Pogba's anger rose in his heart.
How dare you ignore me?
good!
Pogba, who was dribbling the ball at high speed, suddenly shot from a position thirty-three meters away from the goal. The football shot towards Brighton's goal at high speed.
Pogba had no one to intercept and interfere within a five-meter radius, and he completed the shot very comfortably.
The quality of this shot was very high. The football flew past quickly and flew straight into the upper right corner of the goal!
Kushchak flew sideways immediately, but did not touch the football at all. The angle of Pogba's long shot was too tricky.
World wave!
The football flew straight into the upper right corner of Brighton's goal!
In the 36th minute of the first half, the balance of the game was broken. Crystal Palace scored, and it was Pogba who scored!
The Brighton fans were very angry. They immediately roared crazily and cursed the head coach of the game. Damn it, Tarico, look what you did?
Tarico's face was also livid. He immediately came to the sidelines and waved frantically to signal the Brighton people to attack wildly. \u003c
br\u003e
Brighton's players pressed wildly, leaving the back empty. At the end of the first half, the Crystal Palace people seized another opportunity. Kanter, who stole the ball in the backcourt, actually sent a precise long pass. Murray in the frontcourt got ahead of Upson and passed the header to Mane who followed up.
Mane did not stop the ball and directly volleyed sideways. The football flew through Kushchak's wicket and flew into the goal.
Two to zero!
The Brighton fans looked very ugly, and the scene was completely silent!
Tarico's expression became even more gloomy.
At the beginning of the second half, under Tong Yi's signal, Crystal Palace, which was leading by two goals, took the credit, which was beyond everyone's expectations. Brighton's players were also unexpected. There was a loophole in the defense. After receiving the ball from the wing, Zaha went directly into the penalty area. After attracting the defense, he pushed the football flat into the middle.
Murray, who followed closely, fell to the ground and shoveled the football into Brighton's goal.
Three to zero!
massacre!
Crystal Palace is going to massacre Brighton again!
The Brighton fans were very angry, very angry, and uniformly shouted "get out of class is dismissed, Tarico is dismissed!"
Tariko's face was bloodless, and his eyes were angry and fierce.
This game can never go on like this. The offense is all on me. I must bring the score back.
With a bang, all Brighton players rushed into the Crystal Palace half and attacked crazily.
Not to mention, during this period, Brighton's offense was still very series, which caused a lot of trouble for the Crystal Palace people. Ulloa, in particular, is in very good shape. His two consecutive shots missed slightly. Even last time, he got ahead of Van Dijk and hit the goal with a header that hit the Crystal Palace goal. on the pillar.
Brighton people are also unlucky!
Otherwise, he could still score the Crystal Palace goal.
If this goal were scored, the result of this game would definitely go in another direction.
Brighton played a very good game during this period and had many opportunities. It's a pity that they didn't seize the opportunity. Edward's condition today was also very good, and his successive servants saved the opponent's inevitable shots.
This made Speroni on the bench very anxious!
Edouard's condition is so good. At this time, head coach Tong Yi probably won't replace Edouard as the team's starting goalkeeper with himself who has just recovered from injury.
Speroni felt helpless. His injury really came at the wrong time!
Just when the game was about to end, Crystal Palace got a corner kick opportunity.
Zaha drove the football into Brighton's penalty area with an arc. In the penalty area, Laporte jumped high and scored with a header, changing the score to 4-0!
In the end, Crystal Palace defeated Brighton 4-0 in an away game and swept Brighton again, proving that they are the kings of Road 23!
