April 4, 2015, Selhurst Park, South London, England.
What will be held here today is the 31st round of the 2014-2015 Premier League season. The two sides are the home team Crystal Palace and the visiting team Manchester City.
The scene was packed with people.
This game can be said to be very, very important.
This is very, very important to the Crystal Palace people. This is the first game after the Tong 1 statue came out.
This game has very profound significance for Crystal Palace.
Therefore, almost no fans want to miss this game.
It's a pity that the entire stadium is only so big and has such a location, so most Crystal Palace fans still have no way to enter the stadium. But they still came to Selhurst Park. They were in the square outside the stadium, watching the big screen with the statue of Tong 1 to watch this game.
To be honest, there are no fewer fans outside the stadium than inside the stadium.
There are even more fans outside the stadium, and there is a steady stream of fans coming here.
This scene is really grand.
Of course, this safety hazard is also very big.
Therefore, the London Police dispatched a large number of police officers, traffic police, and riot police to the scene to maintain order. These police officers are facing a formidable enemy. After all, there are still a lot of football hooligans in England. So far, they are still not extinct, and there is even a growing trend.
Therefore, at this time, they really did not dare to take it lightly.
Of course, there were a lot of children at the scene, and they were all playing and taking photos around the statue of Tong 1, so it was easy for something to happen. Therefore, security here is very cautious and responsible.
What the police and security personnel at the scene did not expect was that there would be so many fans of the visiting team Manchester City who did not have tickets and came to the square outside the stadium.
Suddenly, the police and security personnel at the scene became nervous and rushed forward immediately. Isolating these from the Crystal Palace fans, I am afraid that something dangerous will happen later as the game progresses.
To be honest, this group of visiting team fans is not large, only about a hundred or ten people.
Compared with the Crystal Palace fans at the scene, it can be said to be a drop in the bucket. However, the police and security personnel at the scene really did not dare to ignore this group of people. Of course, they also guarded against some fans of the home team.
Anyway, the police and security personnel don't want any trouble at the scene.
Of course, at this time, there are still film teams from many countries outside the stadium reporting on the material and live broadcast before the start of the game.
A film crew from the China National Central Sports Television Station was at the scene.
The young and beautiful host Lin Shuyao is now excitedly introducing the situation to the guests in the domestic studio and the viewers in front of the TV.
With short hair, she said excitedly: "Now we can see that Selhurst Park is filled with excited Crystal Palace fans both inside and outside the stadium. Their enthusiasm has ignited the city." In my opinion, this is no longer an ordinary football match, it is a grand festival for the people of Crystal Palace. Today, almost all the people of Crystal Palace, old and young, came to the scene. The scene was really lively..."
Then, the camera moved away from Lin Shuya's body and scanned it for a week.
The guests in the studio and the fans in front of the TV should have seen it clearly. The scene was densely packed with people. And almost everyone was wearing Crystal Palace red and blue striped shirts, and they could even hear the voices of all the fans chanting Tong 1's name.
Even at this time, some Sheniu Crystal Palace fans actually took the initiative to get into the camera and shouted at the camera: "Long live Godfather Tong 1! Long live China! I love China..."
After hearing these words, both the guests in the studio and the Chinese fans in front of the TV were honored and very proud!
Suddenly the beautiful Lin Shuyao appeared in the camera again. She said: "Here, we can see the bronze statue of our country's great football coach Tong Tong standing behind me. There are countless fans lining up now. Taking a photo with the bronze statue of Director Tong, we can see how much Director Tong is loved and respected by Crystal Palace fans and the people of London."
The proficiency was focused on the bronze statue of Tong 1 and the endless stream of people taking photos with the bronze statue of Tong 1.
Everyone's face is filled with happy smiles.
Especially the cute little children, their faces were filled with admiration.
Only then did the guests in the studio and the fans in front of the TV understand Tong 1's position in the hearts of Crystal Palace fans.
Lin Shuyao suddenly said: "Just before this game, when I was being interviewed by media reporters. Director Tong once said that many recent things have indeed affected their team's training, which still has some impact on their state in this game. Impact. However, he feels that these impacts will not be very big, and he is still very confident about winning this game. Therefore, I also think that Crystal Palace, which plays at home, should be able to win this game. The winner of the game.”
When the fans in front of the TV heard Lin Shuyao say this, they were full of confidence and expectations for this game.
Someone in the studio asked a question: "Excuse me, Shu Yao, have you met Director Tong before the competition?"
The guests and the fans in front of the TV were all excited and stared at Lin Shuyao.
Lin Shuyao immediately said: "Of course! I met Coach Tong before the game, and we also talked a lot. Yesterday, our film crew even walked into the Beckenham training base. Of course. We were not allowed to film the Crystal Palace team’s training, so we went to visit the Honor Room of the Crystal Palace Football Club, which was filled with championship trophies and another bronze statue of Coach Tong.”
Everyone was shocked. There is another bronze statue of Tong 1 in the Crystal Palace training base?
When Lin Shuyao was asked, she immediately said: "Yes, there is a bronze statue of Coach Tong at the Crystal Palace training base! But this bronze statue is different from the one outside Selhurst Park. The bronze statue at the training base is a bust, and below are more records of some of Tong’s daily words in his life and work.”
Everyone really didn't expect that the Crystal Palace Club would really value Tong 1 so much. This really meant that Tong 1 was regarded as the first person in the Crystal Palace Club's century-old history.
Facing the questions from the guests, Lin Shuyao continued: "Dangdang, I also talked with Coach Tong face to face before the game. He was really confident about a game in Zhejiang, not just any cliches. He also said that the current Manchester City The team has a lot of playing problems, especially on the defensive line. Demichelis can no longer keep up with the rhythm. If Manchester City does not replace Demichelis, it will be difficult for them to play again. Results!"
Demichelis is indeed a bit old and should be withdrawing from the mainstream stage.
Moreover, in this game, Demichelis also has to face a violent center like Ignacio, and he really may not be able to handle it.
In this game, Manchester City is really hanging in the balance, and Demichelis is really hanging in the balance.
Lin Shuyao also said: "Currently, the state of Crystal Palace is very good. I also met some Crystal Palace players yesterday, and I can see that they are really relaxed, and there is no sense of pressure from the impending war. I can see that. They are very confident, but it’s not that they don’t care about this game. To be honest, seeing the state of the Crystal Palace players, I think Crystal Palace has a very good chance of winning a game in Zhejiang.”
Hearing what Lin Shuyao said, the guests in the studio and the Chinese fans in front of the TV were also full of confidence in this game. They believed in Tong 1's ability and Lin Shuyao's eyes and judgment.
Crystal Palace must win this game!
Then Lin Shuyao disconnected from the studio, and then the group of them entered the stadium to experience and report on the game.
At present, Crystal Palace Football Club and China National Sports Television still have some very in-depth cooperation.
Therefore, Lin Shuyao and the others entered the scene very simply.
After entering the scene, they were instantly surrounded by the hot atmosphere. The Crystal Palace fans at the scene were really excited. Before the game even started, they had already stirred up the atmosphere at the scene, creating some pressure on the Manchester City fans and the goal.
This really feels like the devil’s home field.
After entering the stadium, Lin Shuyao couldn't wait to see the game start.
She believes that Crystal Palace can win at home.
"Hello, viewers and fans!" BBC Sports' Mortensen is here again.
Naturally, the BBC will not miss this important game. They will also broadcast the game nationally because they have the copyright. Today, Mortensen and Shearer were sitting in the commentary box at Selhurst Park Stadium to explain this game.
