Conor Gallagher from set a record for the distance traveled
Patrick Vieira’s Eagles upset Guardiola’s Citizens at Selhurst Park with the help of Conor Gallagher.
What did Gallagher say?
The English footballer claimed he could not feel his legs after setting the club’s season record for distance covered in a match as Crystal Palace held off Man City to a 0-0 draw. Vieira’s Eagles ripped off Guardiola’s Citizens to deliver a new twist in the PL title race, helped in no small part by the energetic presence of tenant Chelsea and the England international team. Speaking after the final whistle at Selhurst Park, Conor paid tribute to his side’s efforts in keeping the champions goalless throughout the tough encounter, adding that he would need to rest his body after his exertion.
Conor Gallagher said they would take a point against them and it was truly deserved. Conor doesn’t feel his legs, each of the boys worked so hard, they gave everything and he is proud of the team. Gallagher struggles to speak and his legs are gone. They could see their game plan to be organized and try to catch them in a counterattack. It was a very good performance from them. Before the game, they had faith that they would win. They played well and got good results, but they are happy with the point. According to Conor Gallagher they are one of the best teams in the world and doing it against them twice is amazing and shows what they can do as a team.
A little about Conor Gallagher
With 12.5km covered in Monday’s matchup, Conor comfortably not only made the most ground of the night for his side, but set the mark of any Palace player in one top-flight performance this season. This further burns his reputation as a hard worker, too, with the midfielder leading the way in 15 of his 25 PL starts for the club, measured by distance covered.
