Legendary Godfather

Tong Yi, who was on the sidelines, also stood up and walked to the sidelines, biting his lip, clasping his fingers, and seemed to glance at Atkinson intentionally or unintentionally.

Guardiola also crouched down and looked at Atkinson.

Everyone in the Manchester City coaching bench stood up and stared at Atkinson.

"This ball... is very dangerous!" Shearer also said the same.

beep!

Atkinson blew his whistle and pointed very firmly towards the penalty spot, which he awarded.

"Sure enough, it was indeed a penalty kick! Atkinson made sure that his eyes were accurate this time and awarded the penalty kick very decisively. However, Rudiger's reaction was a little excited. I wonder what the situation was? He felt Isn't this a penalty kick?" Mortensen said with some confusion.

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene were very angry and unhappy.

Many people stood up, jumped up and down, and even cursed at Atkinson.

Are you, Atkinson, going back to law enforcement? ??

Is this a penalty kick?

Damn it!

Manchester City fans were excited, shouting to the sky and thanking God.

Good opportunity, this is a good opportunity for Manchester City to equalize.

Tong Yi stood relatively calm on the sidelines. He glanced at Attkisson lightly, then came to the fourth official and expressed his dissatisfaction and doubts, but his mood was still normal and calm.

After all, Tong Yi's name has been registered with the Football Association and the Referee Committee. The previous matter has not completely settled. At this time, if Tong Yi continues to frantically attack the referee, what is allowed to wait for Tong Yi is to stop. Race.

Therefore, Tong Yi is trying his best to control his emotions while standing on the sidelines.

The fourth official said to Tong Yi, "Don't worry, we will definitely enforce the law impartially. We must trust the referee. If you have any questions or doubts about the referee's decision, please prepare all the information and submit it after the game." Go to the FA or the referees committee and we will give you a clear answer."

Tong Yi nodded slightly to express his understanding.

Then he stepped aside and looked into the stadium.

At this time, the TV is replaying the handball.

Fans from both sides in front of the TV could see clearly that the ball indeed hit Rudiger's hand.

However, Crystal Palace fans felt that this goal should not be a penalty kick, because Rudiger's hands were already close to his body. He did not reach out to expand the defensive area at all, and it did not affect the movement of the football, because the football did not A hit on Rudiger's arm that is close to his body will also hit Rudiger's body and the bottom line will pop up.

So, this has no impact at all!

This shouldn't be a penalty!

But the Manchester City fans were stunned. This was a penalty kick, because the ball did hit Rudiger's hand.

Everyone has their own reasons.

Shearer said, "Strictly speaking, this goal is not a penalty kick, but if you want to force it to be a penalty kick, it is still a penalty kick."

Yes, after all, the ball did hit Rudiger's arm. No matter how the referee makes a decision, it can be justified. The ball is considered controversial, but it is not considered a black whistle or a misjudgment. The referee must have his basis for awarding a penalty kick, so we should watch the game carefully! "

Crystal Palace fans were very angry and found it difficult to accept.

In their view, this was simply a case of the FA and the referee targeting Crystal Palace, otherwise a penalty kick would not have been awarded.

However, there was nothing they could do as the ball had already been awarded a penalty kick.

The fans of Crystal Palace could only criticize the referee Atkinson. On the other hand, they cheered for Maignan in front of the goal, hoping that Maignan could save the football.

Penalty kick!

Manchester City's forward Aguero came out and held the football to the penalty spot.

"There is no surprise that Aguero will serve this goal. This is the shooter in the Manchester City team. He should be the most confident when he comes! This is not a good thing for Crystal Palace. Aguero has rich experience. He has superb shooting skills and excellent psychological quality. This ball... is very hanging!" Shearer is not optimistic about Crystal Palace.

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene all looked dim. It would be great if Alisson was here.

Manchester City fans are very excited and excited. Without Alisson, this is simply God helping our Manchester City team.

Back then, Liverpool also received a penalty kick against Crystal Palace.

But the goalkeeper of Crystal Palace at the time was Alisson, and Liverpool's penalty kick was saved. Moreover, a penalty kick was served three times without scoring. Alisson really became famous in one battle!

Now whenever forwards face Alisson in front of the penalty spot, they feel a little scared.

You have to know that even Henderson, a stone Buddha with a firm mind and an expressionless face, was discouraged from taking the penalty kick by Alisson, and instead gave the penalty kick to his teammates. This can illustrate the strength and pressure of Alisson on penalty kicks, not to mention other forwards.

Manchester City is really lucky. Crystal Palace's Alisson is suspended for this game.

Therefore, Aguero does not have to face Alisson.

Although Aguero may not be afraid of Alisson, it is naturally the best result not to face Alisson.

Facing newcomer Maignan, Aguero should not have any pressure.

Manchester City players and fans are full of confidence in this goal and in Aguero. They firmly believe that Manchester City can equalize the score.

Aguero can do it!

Aguero is very confident and has no fear at all.

Whether facing Alisson or Maignan now, Aguero is very confident. He firmly believes that he can easily send the football into the Crystal Palace goal.

So when he came to the penalty spot, he

Very relaxed and confident!

He didn't even make any interfering action, he just stood straight in front of the penalty spot, staring at the referee Atkinson, and he was waiting for Atkinson to blow the whistle.

Atkinson came near the penalty area line and reminded the players on both sides, especially the Crystal Palace players, not to break the rules and advance early.

It seems that the game between Crystal Palace and Liverpool made them famous in this regard. All the referees were watching. The Crystal Palace players nodded one after another, indicating that they would not advance early.

Atkinson nodded with satisfaction and returned to the position with the best viewing angle. After signaling to Maignan and Aguero, he didn't find any surprises. He blew the whistle directly in his mouth - beep!

The Valley Stadium, which had been noisy just a moment ago, fell silent for an instant.

Maignan in front of the goal could clearly hear his strong heartbeat, and he knew he was a little nervous. But he is full of confidence in himself. With his reaction ability and his height, saving penalty kicks is his specialty.

No matter who is standing in front of the penalty spot, as long as I, Maignan, guard the goal, none of you can even think of scoring a penalty!

Maignan's eyes were firmly fixed on the football on the penalty spot, concentrating.

Suddenly, Aguero rushed out in front of the penalty spot, blowing the football like a gust of wind.

Aguero didn't come up with anything in vain. When he came to the football money, he directly swung his legs and hit the football hard - boom!

Aguero turned his kick into a push and pushed the football into the lower right corner of the goal!

Aguero made a change with his ankle. He originally wanted to whip the football hard into the lower left corner. He feinted, trying to deceive Maignan, so he shook his ankle.

Not to mention, Maignan was almost deceived by Aguero.

"Ehehe, beautiful, beautiful save, Maignan!" Suddenly, Shearer roared excitedly, and the Crystal Palace fans in the stands instantly jumped up, jumped eight feet high, and cheered excitedly.

Well done, Maignan!

Maignan, you are the penalty kick goalkeeper of our Crystal Palace club!

Maignan, who was originally planning to pounce towards the lower left corner of the goal based on Aguero's movements, discovered something fishy the moment the football flew out. His body immediately moved in the opposite direction, towards the lower right corner of the goal, towards his own goal. The left side rushed out quickly!

His reaction speed is very fast, and he is tall and has long arms. In an instant, he blocks the entire right half of the goal directly in front of the goal. As soon as the football flew in front of the goal, Maignan's ape arm just reached out and blocked the football directly.

"Beautiful, beautiful save! Maignan's long arms knocked down the football, he did a great job... eh eh eh... it's over!!" Mortensen was also very excited when he saw Maignan. He was very happy and happy about the extremely comfortable save, but his expression changed the next moment.

The fans of the Manchester City team who were watching on the stage also

It was very uncomfortable, but in an instant they became ecstatic.

God help me!

"Oh my, my, my! What a pity! Maignan saved Aguero's penalty kick, but the ball was not saved from the bottom line, but was blocked outside the goal and bounced into the penalty area. ." Hiller kept shaking his head, feeling very sorry.

Aguero!

The moment he saw his penalty kick being saved, Aguero immediately accelerated and rushed towards the saved football. He hit the football hard with one kick and quickly pumped the football towards the goal. the far lower left corner.

With a bang, the football was as fast as lightning.

Follow-up shot!

The ball is there!

With a bang, the football that was pulled out by Aguero quickly hit Maignan's raised leg. Aguero's heart skipped a beat, it's impossible, right? Can this be saved? Aguero's eyes widened in disbelief. Is this Maignan even more powerful than Alisson?

The football that hit Maignan's leg immediately flew up, then hit the lower edge of the crossbar of the goal hard, then quickly bounced into the Crystal Palace goal, bounced around in the Crystal Palace goal, and finally hit the net. !

The hearts of Manchester City fans went through twists and turns, ups and downs that almost gave them a heart attack. At this time, they were ecstatic, jumping up and down excitedly, cheering excitedly, "Long live Aguero! I love you, Aguero!!"

Guardiola on the sidelines also exhaled a breath of turbidity in an instant. He was really scared to death just now.

This penalty kick almost missed!

Guardiola immediately turned to look at his assistant Torrent, his eyes full of horror. This Maignan really scared him just now. Can he knock down this ball? Awesome, really awesome.

Torrent was also frightened, and he also knew that they really underestimated this guy Maignan. Even without Alisson, Crystal Palace would not be easy to deal with.

However, they were still excited to celebrate, after all they scored!

"The ball went in! Manchester City still sent the penalty kick into the Crystal Palace goal. Maignan was able to save the ball. He even almost saved the ball with his second save. He did his best. , but luck was not on his side, Maignan is very good." Shearer said excitedly, giving Maignan high praise.

The Crystal Palace fans at the scene also gave Maignan thunderous applause.

They all knew that Maignan could not be blamed for this goal. Maignan had done his best. They all applauded Maignan and praised Maignan's performance this time.

Rudiger also rushed to Maignan's side immediately, patted Maignan on the shoulder, and said that the ball conceded this time was his and he was reckless. He should not have given the penalty kick to Manchester City. Otherwise, this would have happened. The ball will not be lost!

Maignan also patted Rudiger on the shoulder and said it was okay.

One to one!

Manchester City equalized.
