The highly anticipated Merseyside derby between Liverpool and Everton has been postponed due to severe weather conditions caused by Storm Darragh. In its place, Crystal Palace drew 2-2 with Manchester City, resulting in a chaotic atmosphere at Selhurst Park. Al Jazeera brings updates and post-match reactions from the event that unfolded on Saturday, December 12.
Manchester City have the opportunity to move to the top of the Premier League table with a big win against Crystal Palace on Saturday. With a recent 4-1 victory against Aston Villa, Pep Guardiola's team is in a strong position to overtake their rivals and add pressure. The reigning champions have a history of stepping up when it counts and will be looking to dominate against a struggling Palace side. Notably, rising star Phil Foden has made a strong case for a starting spot after reaching impressive numbers of over 20 goals and 10 assists this season, putting him among the top English players in Europe.
