At this point, even a draw seemed difficult for Crystal Palace.
The game continued.
Time was slipping away, and Crystal Palace was running out of chances.
In these final minutes, the Crystal Palace players launched a desperate offensive.
In moments like this, you need star players who can rise to the occasion.
But unfortunately, Crystal Palace lacks any big-name superstars.
So, despite their best efforts, every attack seemed to fall short. The results were lackluster, especially in midfield.
Once Su Luo dropped back to support the midfield, it became an insurmountable barrier for Crystal Palace.
Again, MacArthur had the ball in midfield.
Initially, he intended to deliver a brilliant through ball to break through Chelsea's defense.
But just as he was about to pass, Su Luo suddenly appeared in front of him!
Startled, MacArthur attempted a quick pass, but it was too late.
Su Luo intercepted with a swift move, his right foot cleanly stealing the ball from MacArthur.
In an instant, Chelsea had a chance to counterattack.
This time, Su Luo didn't push forward himself. Instead, he timed his play perfectly, sending a through ball immediately!
The ball passed through multiple defenders and landed right at Lukaku's feet!
It's worth noting that Chelsea's star striker, Lukaku, hadn't had many opportunities in tonight's game.
So when Lukaku received the ball, he was ready and eager.
Without hesitation, he used his powerful physique to charge straight at Sakho.
Though Sakho is physically strong, he couldn't match Lukaku in this clash.
With one solid move, Lukaku overpowered Sakho, then accelerated to full speed!
Like a flash of black lightning, he surged forward, racing directly towards the goal.
This was a golden opportunity for Lukaku!
Crystal Palace goalkeeper Speroni looked panicked as he rushed forward, trying to block him.
But he was a second too late.
At the penalty spot, Lukaku calmly slotted the ball into the net, perfectly placing it in the far corner.
The score now stood at 4-2!
With that goal, the game was sealed.
Chelsea had all but secured the win against Crystal Palace!
After the final whistle, Crystal Palace players surrounded Su Luo, almost like fans, taking photos with him.
This was a Su Luo victory.
After the game, Coach Conte was all praise for his star player's performance.
