El Casico Night at Selhurst: Tempo Not Vibes After CAS Drama
It had been billed as El Casico but the court drama did not help Palace on the pitch.
After a crossing of swords at CAS over UEFA’s demotion, Palace could not beat Forest.
Marinakis stayed away, and a banner at Selhurst spoke louder than words.
Forest arrived with a phalanx of security guarding them.
The banner midway through the first half made the hostility clear.
Palace pressed with tempo but could not finish their chances.
Nevertheless the night showed the graft and rhythm Palace bring.
This is not about vibes, this is about discipline, effort, and rhythm.
Eberechi Eze flashed moments but could not finish.
Across town Millwall talk grit; Palace respond with pressure and pace.
Brighton bring noise, but Palace must earn the right to it.
- Palace needed tempo over vibes.
- Eze showed flashes but could not finish.
- Millwall talk grit; Brighton noise; Palace walk rhythm.
