There wasn’t much missing! On the right, Kevin De Bruyne finds a gap in the Palace defence. With a steep pass he sends Jack Grealish towards the baseline. Grealish plays the ball hard in front of goal where Bernardo Silva slips past the ball.

The game remains without goals. It’s a game of patience for Manchester City. A lead for the Guardiola team would not be undeserved.
58
22:19
Big double chance! Kevin De Bruyne receives the ball in the left half of the box. His shot from the turn hits the right post. Riyad Mahrez gets the opportunity to take a shot, but Guaita parries the shot into the goal with a brilliant act.

22:13
Yellow card for Jack Grealish (Manchester City)
Conor Gallagher drives the leather forward. He is roughly brought down by Jack Grealish. He rightly sees the yellow card.
53
22:13
City is with the entire team in the opposing penalty area. The guests keep trying to get the ball in front of the goal. Palace, however, always get in the way at the last moment with a foot in the way.
50
22:11
Crystal Palace takes a short corner from the left. Finally, Michael Olise puts the ball in front of the goal. After some back and forth, Cheikhou Kouyaté got a header in the six-yard box but under pressure from all sides missed the goal by a few yards.

The game is running again. Both teams come out of the dressing room unchanged.

Kick-off 2nd half

Mid-term conclusion:
Crystal Palace and Manchester City are goalless at the break. In any case, a partial success for the hosts. From the start, the guests are the game-determining team. The encounter takes place largely in the hosts’ half. Despite a few chances, the goal didn’t work out. But Palace is by no means hiding. Patrick Vieira’s side repeatedly show themselves after winning the ball with quick advances into the opposing penalty area. It remains exciting to see whether Palace can continue to hold out so strongly in the second round.

21:47
Yellow card for Cheikhou Kouyate (Crystal Palace)
43
21:46
Almost 75 percent possession and 13 shots on goal: City sets the tone. Palace defends itself with all available forces.
40
21:41
Five minutes are still on the clock in the first round. Which team is dangerous again in front of the opposing goal?
38
21:41
Losing the ball in their own penalty area puts City in a precarious situation. Wilfried Zaha passes two opponents and only misses the goal with his shot from the edge of the penalty area.
33
21:36
The meeting is currently suspended. Cheikhou Kouyaté needs treatment on the pitch. But he’s slowly picking himself up, so it should go on straight away.
31
21:35
With a cheeky tunnel through his opponent’s legs, João Cancelo puts Jack Grealish in the spotlight on the left winger. The ball lands on Bernardo Silva at Riyad Mahrez, who fails with his shot from six meters to Guaita.
27
21:31
Post! A powerful shot from João Cancelo hits the right post. Aymeric Laporte gets the second chance, but hammers the ball from twelve meters over the almost empty goal.
26
21:29
Strong save! As soft as butter, João Cancelo lifts the ball into the penalty area from a half-right position. Kevin De Bruyne seeks the end with a direct acceptance from seven meters. In the goal, however, Guaita is at his post and steers the game device over the crossbar.
23
21:26
The dominant team is Manchester City. But Palace is doing well and can always provide quite dangerous relief attacks. A really good soccer game.
20
21:24
It won’t be a quiet evening for the City defense. Michael Olise and Jean-Philippe Mateta cause quite a stir and fill up on the sixteen. Under pressure, the former Mainzer does not put the ball on Ederson’s box.
19
21:22
A shot by John Stones is blocked for a corner. Kevin De Bruyne takes on the execution, but his cross finds no takers.
15
21:20
It goes back and forth. Patrick Vieira’s eleven always pose a threat with quick switching games. This time Jean-Philippe Mateta is prevented from finishing with a sliding tackle. There is a corner kick.
14
21:18
In direct return, Kevin De Bruyne fires a hard shot from 20 meters on the other side. Palace keeper Guaita bounces the ball forward and is lucky that one of his front men reacts faster than Bernardo Silva.
13
21:17
Again Crystal Palace manages to counter. This time, Jean-Philippe Mateta stages Michael Olise on the right in the box. From an acute angle, he only narrowly misses.
10
21:15
On the center line, Aymeric Laporte negligently loses the ball to Conor Gallagher. On the left wing he wants to take Jean-Philippe Mateta with him, but the fkugball is too imprecise. City gets the time to rearrange themselves on the defensive.
8th
21:10
Riyad Mahrez just tries it from a distance from the inside right position. However, his shot from 22 meters hits the advertising board two meters from the left post.
6
21:08
A superb combination puts the ball through Jack Grealish and Phil Foden to Bernardo Silva in the left half of the box. But he lacks the pass stations in the center of the penalty area. His cross from the baseline is cleared.
3
21:05
With speed, Jack Grealish pulls in from the left. He comes to the edge of the penalty area. There, three defenders stand in his way.

21:02
The ball rolls! What can Crystal Palace do against the leaders in front of their home crowd?
20:33
The bitter last-minute defeat by Tottenham Hotspur (2-3) was followed by two wins against Everton (1-0) and Manchester United (4-1). The city rival, who is fighting for international business himself, had no chance. During the week, The Citizens advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League with a 0-0 (first leg: 5-0) win over Sporting CP. Some regulars were given a break. Tonight the eleven from the United game will be back together on the pitch.
20:24
After Palace started 2022 with six games without a win, the results have recently improved. The home side have been unbeaten for three games with two wins and a draw. Last week The Eagles defeated Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-0. Coach Patrick Vieira sees no reason to change his starting lineup due to past successes.
20:16
City are still top of the table, but Liverpool are just three points behind the Guardiola team. A tight championship race is imminent. Today’s hosts are far from that, but they can add to the excitement. Crystal Palace find themselves in the middle of the table. Patrick Vieira’s team will probably have nothing to do with international business or the relegation battle this season.
20:02
Hello and welcome to Matchday 29 of the Premier League. Crystal Palace meets Manchester City at Selhurst Park in London. Have fun!
