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.

In fact, when the match hadn't started yet, but I was just shocked about how Manchester City could be so favored based on the odds. After all, basically Crystal Palace is not a weak team at all and at the same time, at least at this moment Manchester City is experiencing a decline in performance. So ya, with this draw I personally not surprised at all because after all, I also bet with the Asian handicap option for Crystal Palace and I got it.

But apart from that match, I am sorry for the incident that occurred in the match between Bournemouth v Luton Town which was postponed, because there was an incident with the captain of Luton Town (Tom Lockyer) who collapsed until he was unconscious. Well, hopefully Tom Lockyer can recover and ya, based on the information circulating, previously Tom Lockyer also has experienced an incident like this and Tom Lockyer has also had heart surgery.
