I'm even surprised myself because after when Manchester City scored that second goal, i was actually thinking it was game over, as I thought Manchester City will go ahead to score more goals, however the game Crystal palace were playing anyone could easily suspect that they might come back because they were playing a counter attack pattern right from first half. But making this game 2-2 was really commendable, crystal palace defended and made good effort to fight back till the end of the game, that's why football is one beautiful game, because it's full of surprises.
I'm not surprised at all, after their second goal, they slowed down the pressure which gave crystal palace the opportunity to maximize their counter attacking mode of play. I saw that draw coming from the time crystal palace scored the first goal, like was expecting the second one. Haaland was greatly missed in this match. Alvarez failed to be a good pair to Foden. I would've even preferred Foden played front while Alvarez supported from behind him. Foden has better finishing ability from any angle then Alvarez. Manchester city has maintained their 4th position, their next match determines if they drop to 5th if they fail to win. Kudos to crystal Palace, their hard work payed off. They really did well today.
I think the problem here is just Manchester city finding it difficult to actually secure a good winning form, I mean the combination by pep guadiola today didn't work out at all, sometimes with all this struggles it make me miss Kevin the more, I mean the man is just our of this world a midfield who knows what to do at every instant and when it comes to scoring the goals, you can definitely count on him and am quite sure if Kevin de byrune was around most of the unexpected losses and draw would have been a totally different result.
