Premier League focus battle,Who can put an end to bad performance?
Erling Haaland showcased his unstoppable form at the Etihad Stadium, effortlessly outmaneuvering the formidable Jarrad Branthwaite. Despite Everton's resilient defense, Haaland's venomous strike in the 70th minute and a subsequent display of physical prowess led to a 2-0 victory for the Norwegian. Despite the commendable effort, Everton's failure to secure points leaves them in 18th place, one point behind Luton Town, having played an additional game, and still awaiting their first Premier League win of the New Year.
Roy Hodgson's Crystal Palace, enduring defensive struggles since a 1-0 defeat to Everton in January's FA Cup third-round replay, faced increased scrutiny amid expectations of Hodgson's impending departure. However, sentiments shifted to sympathy after news broke of Hodgson falling ill during training. The 76-year-old, stable in the hospital, received well-wishes from the football community. With reports suggesting Oliver Glasner might succeed him, Hodgson's right-hand man Paddy McCarthy is set to take temporary charge for Monday's match, a role he previously held during a 4-1 loss to Arsenal last year.
