Legendary Godfather

On January 3, 2016, it was lightly raining at Selhurst Park Stadium in South London, England.

After spending a New Year's Day holiday at home with Martina and their son and daughter, Tong Yi, Tong Yi and the others said goodbye to 2015 and welcomed 2016.

Crystal Palace's first game in 2016 was a home game, and the opponent was the giant Chelsea.

Logically speaking, this game should be a very difficult game.

But in Tong Yi's opinion, this game should be relatively easy. Because this Chelsea is not that Chelsea!

If it were against Chelsea last season, this game would definitely be very difficult. But it is easier to meet Chelsea now.

Because there are players in the Chelsea team who don’t want to win!

Obviously, there are many internal problems at Chelsea, especially the previous relationship between the players and Mourinho was very tense. It can be said that Chelsea's players want to get rid of Mourinho, so how can Chelsea win this game?

Crystal Palace must win this game!

Even if they encounter strong enemy Chelsea, Crystal Palace will go all out to win this game.

Because the goal of Crystal Palace is the league championship, every game is crucial and cannot be lost!

Tong Yi is very confident about this game!

When he came to the stadium, Tong Yi had already seen Mourinho.

To be honest, Tong Yi is still very optimistic about Mourinho. Mourinho is still very capable.

Pity!

After this game, Mourinho will be dismissed.

Tong Yi came to Mourinho as a master, extended his right hand to Mourinho and said, "Welcome to Selhurst Park, Mr. Mourinho!"

Mourinho held Tong Yi's right hand and said calmly, "I saw the joking in your eyes. Do you really think you can kick me out of my position as Chelsea coach?"

Tong Yi shook his head slightly and said, "It's not me who wants to kick you down, but your players who want to kick you down!"

Mourinho was slightly stunned and stared at Tong Yi.

Tong Yi smiled slightly, patted Mourinho on the back, and then walked directly to his coaching bench.

Mourinho frowned and sighed. It seemed that this game was really in danger.

In fact, Mourinho was prepared before coming.

After all, the conflicts between him and Chelsea players are already well known.

Mourinho looked at Tong Yi, sighed, and walked to his coaching bench. Perhaps, today is really the last time I will appear as Chelsea coach!

When he thought of this, Mourinho turned his head and looked at Tong Yi's back, a trace of envy flashing in his eyes.

Tong Yi, a Chinese, is really lucky. A rich woman bought him a Premier League team to help him realize his dream. This guy never worried about being fired, and he was able to control the entire team with one hand. He alone has the final say on the team.

I’m so envious!

"Hello, viewers and fans! This is BBC Sports. Today we bring you the first Premier League game in 2016. The two teams are Crystal Palace and Chelsea. Today's game is highly anticipated. , I believe everyone really wants to see the result of this game? Then we will wait and see!" Mortensen started his opening remarks.

"Now that the players from both sides have entered the stadium, the game is about to start. Let us introduce to you the starting lineups of both sides today." Neville said.

Yes, Mortensen's partner today is Gary Neville, not Shearer.

beep!

Soon the referee blew the whistle to start the game, and all the fans in the audience saw the Chelsea people setting up the bus.

Yes, Chelsea is setting up a bus in this game!

Seeing this, the Crystal Palace fans were full of confidence in this game. They suddenly felt that Chelsea really did not pose much of a threat. Their Crystal Palace could really defeat Chelsea easily.

In this round of competition, the opponents of Crystal Palace are not very strong, and they should all be able to win. Therefore, Crystal Palace really cannot lose in this game. Once it loses, it will be completely over.

Crystal Palace does not want to be surpassed by teams such as Leicester City and Arsenal.

So, I'm sorry Mourinho, you must get out of your position as Chelsea coach today!

Come on, Crystal Palace.

The Crystal Palace side immediately launched an attack and pressed high.

Crystal Palace instantly took the absolute initiative, besieging Chelsea's penalty area and threatening Chelsea's goal.

The scene is becoming more and more fierce, and Chelsea's goal is becoming more and more dangerous.

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene were a little surprised when they saw this. Isn't this too easy? Has Chelsea dropped so sharply in just half a season?

It wasn’t just Crystal Palace fans who found the game very

It was so easy, even the Crystal Palace players on the court felt that this game was relatively easy. Because the defensive pressure placed on them by Chelsea was really not great, and the intensity of the confrontation was far weaker than what the Crystal Palace players expected.

This time, Crystal Palace fans believed Tong Yi's words.

These Chelsea players have really suffered from Mourinho for a long time. They are really ready to kill Mourinho in this game.

These Chelsea players really seem to be a bit unproductive.

No wonder the intensity of this confrontation is so weak.

Of course, the Chelsea players on the pitch didn't do anything particularly obvious. Their running defense and other things in defense still look very positive. But once they faced off, their bodies were a bit soft, and when they turned around to pursue defense, their speed and reaction were obviously a little slower. .??.??

Because the Crystal Palace players have played many games with Chelsea players, they know the Chelsea people very well, so they clearly feel it. But the fans in the stands still couldn't feel it. After all, Chelsea's defense was still very active.

However, Mourinho on the sidelines could definitely feel it, so his face darkened early on.

Obviously, Mourinho also saw the thoughts of the Chelsea people.

Therefore, Mourinho stood up early in the morning, came to the sidelines, and roared loudly into the stadium, signaling the Chelsea players to be stronger, more active, and more desperate.

Then on the court, Chelsea players still go their own way!

Seeing this, Mourinho's face became even more ugly.

Seeing this, Tong Yi finally understood why Chelsea's results this season were so poor.

Around the 15th round of this season, Chelsea's performance once reached 16th in the league, only 1 point ahead of the relegation zone. This season, Chelsea have really lowered their lower limit very, very much.

Half a season ago, he was still the Premier League champion!

It would be strange if there were no problems within the team.

Seeing this, Tong Yi was completely relieved. Crystal Palace would definitely win this game.

At this moment, De Bruyne in the midfield advanced with the ball and easily passed Mikel with one pass.

When Mourinho on the sidelines saw this, his eyes almost popped out of his head.

Mikel, can your defense be a little more fake? Don't you even want to act?

After passing Mikel, De Bruyne immediately used his body to resist Fabregas. This was really a resistance. Physically, De Bruyne is stronger than Fabregas.

De Bruyne immediately moved forward with the ball and headed towards Chelsea's penalty area.

Terry immediately rushed out and came up to intercept De Bruyne. He prevented De Bruyne from taking a long shot. He knew very well that De Bruyne

Browne's long-range shooting ability. Therefore, this time De Bruyne, who must not be allowed to get a chance to shoot long distance.

Terry is still very positive and working very hard, but being positive alone is useless!

After De Bruyne drew Terry out, he directly pushed the football behind Terry with a straight pass. Salah, who came up diagonally, directly asked Ivanovic to drop and came to Terry. In the gap behind him. Facing Chelsea goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois, Salah directly volleyed the ball towards the far top corner of the goal.

The ball is very fast and Courtois' reaction is faster!

However, Courtois still didn't touch the football. The angle of the ball was too tricky.

clang!

The football hit the inside of the goal post hard and bounced straight into the Chelsea goal.

One to zero!

In the 21st minute of the first half, Crystal Palace, playing at home, took the lead.

Seeing this, Mourinho's eyes darkened and his face looked very ugly. He knew the situation was over, and then he stopped shouting into the stadium. Instead, he turned around and walked back to the coaching bench to sit down. He knew that he had no chance in this game and Chelsea would definitely lose this game.

After scoring the goal, Crystal Palace still showed no restraint and continued to attack.

Obviously, Crystal Palace wants to win this game completely.

After the goal, Crystal Palace's offense became more and more fierce. However, they also encountered crazy resistance from the Chelsea people, which still caused a lot of trouble for the Crystal Palace people. It seems like these guys at Chelsea want to lose, but they don't want to lose too ugly. So after conceding the ball, they played even more fiercely and were fully committed.

The Crystal Palace players reacted immediately and felt something was wrong with the Chelsea players.

However, this also failed to stop the Crystal Palace team's attack.

In the 12th minute of the second half, Crystal Palace still played a wonderful offense.

Kanter, who was pressing forward, intercepted the football from Cesc Fabregas near the center circle and quickly passed the football into the penalty area with a long diagonal pass. Ignacio jumped up and beat veteran Terry to header the ball, and Salah, who came in behind, volleyed the ball into Chelsea's goal again.

Two to zero!

Seeing this ball, Mourinho had no expression on his face.

The Crystal Palace side still did not restrain themselves, they were still attacking fiercely. The Chelsea players are also actively defending. It is obvious that the Chelsea players do not want to concede any more goals. They thought about losing, but they never thought about losing like this!

However, in the 28th minute of the second half, after Crystal Palace made continuous passes from the wing, Carvajal came up and passed directly, passing the football into Chelsea's penalty area. In the penalty area, Ignacio beat Zouma to header and smashed the football into Chelsea's goal.

Three to zero!
