Welcome into the last edition of ESPNSC. I'm Tomas joined by Stevie Nica. We'll kick things off at

0:08.7

Selhurst Park. We're asked all minute two in to add a two to start the season, but they made a

0:13.0

fight hard for that victory. Defeating Crystal Palace by one goal to nail the only goal of the game

0:18.4

would come in the 54th minute after in Ketia was brought down. Ode to guard converted the penalty.

0:24.4

And for much of the second half, I'll start to play with just 10 men. Tommy Asu was initially booked

0:28.9

for time wasting and minutes later brought down you for a second book lower offence. He's only

0:34.6

time he's about eight seconds, but the referee felt that was enough, so he was off, but asked

0:39.4

to hold on for the victory. As we welcome in, Shaka Hesloff is here and after his Australian adventure,

0:45.6

good day, good day, Joe, say to your mates. Welcome back, boys, very good. Thank you very much.

0:52.7

What a treat. We're here from the boys in the moment. Let's see if this is a fun game,

0:55.6

isn't it? It's a good Monday night game, it's now his part. Yeah, well, you know,

1:00.4

I guess from Arsenal's point of view, they won't probably think along those lines.

1:05.4

And certainly if you want it, yeah, but if you're if you're Arthetta, it'll be disappointed that they

1:10.7

didn't have Crystal Palace out of sight by half time, because in Ketia, she was scored twice.

1:16.1

I think Martin Ellis should earn way better in the first five minutes with an opportunity.

1:20.5

And Crystal Palace, really, I don't remember a chance where you're saying they should have scored.

1:27.8

And actually, the biggest thing to get out of it other than the three points is, although they won

1:33.1

the game, the fact that they played with 10 men for a decent period of time and got through it,

1:39.4

just helps this early stage of the season to galvanize everybody again and get everybody pulled

1:44.8

together. So yeah, it'll be glad to the win. It'll be disappointed that they kept Crystal Palace

1:51.0

hanging around, but because of the fact that they were down to 10 men, they'll go home quick

1:56.6

contented tonight. It's the first two opening matches, Shaq, Arsenal have had to work really hard
