The game was a big success, but it was such a match that was not comparable that made Manchester City lose the top spot in the Premier League.
In this game, Manchester City was also affected by the frequent and intensive schedule, so they used a lot of substitutes in this game, hoping to let the main players have a rest.
But in the end, just with such a rest, they directly lost their first place in the league.
In this game, Crystal Palace was naturally very clear about their position in the face of Manchester City. They directly regarded themselves as the weak and Manchester City as the super giant, and then took the initiative to hand over control in the game and parked the bus in their own half.
Manchester City is not new to the bus-style defense. On the contrary, they often encounter such teams. Facing this formation, all they have to rely on is more high-altitude bombing and pulling in the front field.
However, in this game, the goddess of luck did not seem to be on Manchester City's side. No matter how B Silva, Jesus and Sane bombed, they still could not break the iron bucket formation set up by Crystal Palace.
In the end, until the end of the game, the score on the field remained at 0:0.
Although the Crystal Palace team played ugly defensive football, when the team really got a draw, whether it was the players, the coaching staff, or the home team fans at the scene, they almost hugged the people around them excitedly to celebrate.
This is a powerful Manchester City!
In the eyes of the cheap Crystal Palace players, there is almost no difference between a draw with Manchester City and a victory.
When Arsenal on the other side beat West Bromwich 0:1, all the Gunners fans cheered.
The streets of North London have completely become streets occupied by the Gunners.
"We are the first in the Premier League!!!"
The points between Arsenal and Manchester City have always been two points apart. In this game, although Manchester City tied the score and successfully got one point from Crystal Palace, they were only three points ahead. After defeating West Bromwich, Arsenal's points were almost the same as theirs.
However, the reason why Arsenal was able to take the top spot in the league with a huge advantage in goal difference is that Lei Ming contributed greatly.
When talking about goal difference, Lei Ming, the defensive general, is naturally unavoidable.
Since he joined Arsenal's defensive lineup, the team's defensive quality has been significantly improved.
Under Lei Ming's command, Arsenal's defensive line error rate has been greatly reduced.
Today, his teammates are full of trust in him. As long as Lei Ming gives an order, they will execute it without hesitation.
Facts have proved that this unconditional trust has brought satisfactory results.
Whenever Lei Ming directed the game, they could always successfully seize the key position and ball path.
Teammates deeply admire Lei Ming's keen insight, and this admiration gradually turned into a deeper level of trust.
It is precisely because Lei Ming has strong defensive strength and excellent on-the-spot command ability that the current Arsenal defense line has become one of the strongest defenses in the league.
"Thank you, brothers from Crystal Palace!"
"Brothers from Crystal Palace will always be our good friends!"
"There has never been a moment when I like a team so much, Crystal Palace, you are really awesome!"
Because of Crystal Palace's disguised assists, Arsenal surpassed Manchester City and became the top of the Premier League. Arsenal fans now almost call each other brothers when they see Crystal Palace fans.
After all, without the help of brothers, there would be no Arsenal today.
At the same time, in the streets and alleys of North London, some bars or shops will put up such signs outside:
"As long as friends from Crystal Palace come, drinks are all half-price."
For this situation, Manchester City coach Guardiola seems very sad, but at the same time he understands the situation.
Because to be fair, Arsenal played really well. Wenger has injected a good stability factor into this young Arsenal team. At the same time, there is such an outstanding goalkeeper. It is hard not to achieve results.
At this moment, what makes Guardiola most depressed is undoubtedly that he did not make up his mind to snatch Lei Ming from Arsenal's hands, which led to today's situation.
If. If... But in fact, there is no if in the world of adults! They all have to pay the price for what they have done.
......
The winter break has already been during this period
Quietly opened, although the Premier League teams cannot stop the game, they can make necessary signings at this time.
At this time, Wenger represented Arsenal to go to Dortmund to meet with the players he was optimistic about and persuade them to join his team.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, a man who won the Golden Boot last season, Wenger was too eager for the other party to join.
In the previous player quotation link, he even made a direct offer of up to 60 million, just like Lei Ming at the beginning. In the end, Dortmund was moved by their sincerity and made an offer of 63 million, and Arsenal quickly nodded and agreed at Wenger's suggestion.
As Arsenal's performance is getting better and better, the Kroenke family is now more and more prestigious in the sports circle. Kroenke knows very well that all this is because Wenger gave them. If he hadn't urged himself to spend a lot of money to sign Lei Ming, Arsenal would never have achieved such results now.
Arsenal is now really strong enough to be on par with any team in the Premier League.
For this reason, during the winter break, Kroenke told Wenger that given the lack of depth on the bench, the team would find a way to bring back any player he wanted.
And Aubameyang is obviously the most important player in Wenger's winter break signing plan.
In Wenger's view, if Aubameyang joins the team, he will be able to let the old-timer Lacazette retreat a little bit. His frontcourt connection is particularly good. If this is used well, it may have a miraculous effect in the second half.
And Aubameyang, the Bundesliga Golden Boot last season, is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate.
Of course, when considering the front-line players, Wenger will also consider the opponent's speed, because he knows very well how important a speed-type striker is to Lei Ming.
He still remembers the ML combination of Lei Ming and Mbappe in the Champions League. The quick whirlwind counterattack is still fresh in his memory. He really wants to replicate this classic in Arsenal's system. As a coach who focuses on training, Wenger really wants to stimulate all of Lei Ming's abilities.
He can't afford a player like Mbappe, but he thinks Aubameyang will be a good substitute.
