Palace 促進するd to 首相の職

Last updated at 16:26 30 May 2004


Neil Shipperley bundled home the most important goal of his career to send 水晶 Palace 支援する into the Barclaycard 首相の職 after a six-year absence and clinch an 概算の £25million prize at the expense of heartbroken West Ham in the play-off final.

The Eagles captain got enough of a touch on a 62nd-minute 発射 from First 分割 最高の,を越す scorer Andy Johnson which 大打撃を与えるs goalkeeper Stephen Bywater could only 押し進める invitingly into his path.

Shipperley has played for five other clubs in a distinguished career, but he is in his second (一定の)期間 with Palace and it is there where he will now be best remembered after putting the finishing touch on a remarkable (選挙などの)運動をする under 経営者/支配人 Iain Dowie.

The Eagles were 戦う/戦いing against relegation when Dowie took over as 経営者/支配人 支援する in December, but the former Oldham boss brought them 支援する from the brink to clinch a play-off place in the dying seconds of the season.

荒涼とした 未来 for the 大打撃を与えるs

Palace reached the Millennium Stadium by (警官の)巡回区域,受持ち区域ing Sunderland on 刑罰,罰則s in a gruelling 半分-final にもかかわらず 存在 減ずるd to 10 men に引き続いて Julian Gray's 解雇/(訴訟の)却下 in normal time, and they showed the same spirit against the 大打撃を与えるs, whose 即座の 未来 now looks 荒涼とした.

The 大打撃を与えるs are an 概算の £33million in 負債 and the likes of Michael Carrick, Christian Dailly and Tomas Repka may all now have to follow those sacrificed after last season's relegation from the 最高の,を越す flight.

This was new 領土 for the 大打撃を与えるs, who were making their first foray into the play-offs, while Palace had tasted 敗北・負かす and victory in the 分割 One final two years in succession in the late 90s.

The Eagles almost 行方不明になるd their chance this time around after losing at Coventry on the final day of the 正規の/正選手 season, and ironically it was Brian Deane's last-minute equaliser for West Ham at Wigan which 最終的に clinched them a 最高の,を越す-six finish.

Extra spice

The fi nal was given extra spice by virtue of the all-London 競争 between the two 味方するs, and a foul by Dailly on Aki Riihilahti gave Palace an 早期に 解放する/自由な-kick in a dangerous area from which Danny Butterfield 発射 marginally wide.

Johnson put a 解放する/自由な header from a teasing Wayne Routledge centre over the crossbar when team-mate Shipperley was better placed to capitalise on some slack 大打撃を与えるs 場内取引員/株価.

And Palace 十分な-支援する Danny Granville should have done better when Bywater fumbled a Shaun Derry corner into his path, fluffing his lines 貧しく in 前線 of goal with West Ham's keeper 立ち往生させるd.

But a moment of 魔法 from Carrick should have 供給するd the 打開 for 大打撃を与えるs striker Bobby Zamora in the 20th minute. Carrick's chipped through-ball was インチ-perfect, but Zamora choked in 前線 of goal, 解雇する/砲火/射撃ing his 発射 against the keeper's 脚s.

West Ham defender Repka (疑いを)晴らすd a Michael Hughes 発射 which こそこそ動くd past Bywater off his own goalline before Zamora had a 刑罰,罰則 控訴,上告 turned 負かす/撃墜する for a 強く引っ張る by Mikele Leigertwood 権利 on the 辛勝する/優位 of the Palace area.

(一定の)期間 of 圧力

Eagles keeper Vaesen was at 十分な stretch to 否定する Steve Lomas when the Northern Ireland midfielder let 飛行機で行く from 25 yards after a good (一定の)期間 of 圧力 from West Ham.

But Palace finally broke the 行き詰まる when Bywater could only 押し進める Johnson's 発射 from the 辛勝する/優位 of the box into the path of Shipperley, who bundled it over the line from の近くに 範囲 in the 62nd minute.

David Connolly and Zamora both had the ball in the 逮捕する at the other end すぐに afterwards only to be 否定するd by a linesman's 旗, and Carrick 実験(する)d Vaesen 扱うing from distance.

大打撃を与えるs boss Alan Pardew abandoned the club's 原則s by throwing on lanky strikers Brian Deane and Don Hutchison in a desperate 企て,努力,提案 to snatch an equaliser, and they should have had a 刑罰,罰則 with seven minutes remaining.

Leigertwood was 有罪の of a clumsy foul on Carrick inside the area and 権利 in 前線 of 審判(をする) Graham 投票, but the Hertfordshire 公式の/役人 waved away West Ham's 控訴,上告s and Palace held on.
