Bab 219: EFL Cup clash

In Selhurst Park, Fulham and Crystal Palace clashed.

As soon as the referee's whistle went off, Fulham kicked off the game.

From the beginning, a team full of Fulham youngsters surged, determined to prove their ability as they took the game to Crystal Palace.

They wanted to score an early goal.

During the early proceedings of this game, Fulham was the one holding the advantage over their opponents as despite playing at home, Crystal Palace were forced to defend against them.

For almost 3 minutes after the start of this game, Fulham retained possession, pinging passes around with Andreas Pereira at its core.

They got themselves into a few dangerous positions, Muniz coming closest as his low-driven shot beat the Crystal Palace goalkeeper only to hit the post and rebound back into the Crystal Palace 6-yard box.

Before Muniz could pounce, Lacroix did, clearing the ball up field.

Bam!
