Review of the match Crystal Palace - Arsenal:
Crystal Palace hosted Arsenal in a hard fought Premier League match at Selhurst Park Stadium. At the start of the match both teams showed strong defence, resulting in a 0-0 scoreline by half-time. The match started off very tense, with both teams looking to gain an advantage. In the 27th minute, Crystal Palace player J. Ayew received a yellow card for an incorrect attack. This early warning set the tone for a physical battle between the teams. At the start of the second half, Arsenal managed to take the lead in the 54th minute. Arsenal were awarded a penalty and M. Odegaard confidently converted it, giving his team a decisive 1-0 lead. The goal breathed new life into the game as Crystal Palace tried their best to equalise. Tension flared in the 60th minute when Arsenal player T. Tomiyasu received a yellow card. The Japanese defender's aggressive play led to another yellow card just seven minutes later and he was forced to leave the pitch with a red card. Arsenal's challenge increased with only ten men left on the pitch. Both teams made substitutions to freshen up their line-ups.
In the 70th minute, Arsenal brought on G. Martinelli in place of Gabriel, and in the 74th minute, Crystal Palace brought on J. Schlupp in place of N. Ahamada. In the 79th minute, as the game entered its final stages, Arsenal made another substitution. E. Nketia came on in place of Jorginho, adding fresh energy to the attack. Crystal Palace responded with a substitution of their own, replacing J. Ward with J. Rak-Sakyi in the 83rd minute. As time waned, Arsenal made another substitution to hold their lead. In the 89th minute, B. Saka replaced J. Kiviora, and in the 90th minute M. Odegaard gave way to O. Zinchenko. In the last minutes of the game the tension grew: K. Doucoure (Crystal Palace) and K. Havertz (Arsenal) received yellow cards. The referee's decision to dismiss these players demonstrated his desire to maintain control of the match. In the end, the decisive moment of the game was Arsenal's early penalty, as Crystal Palace failed to equalise. Arsenal claimed a 1-0 victory, which will surely boost their confidence in the Premier League. Their resilience in the face of adversity, playing outnumbered, showed their determination and team spirit.
