In the 20th round of the Premier League, Norwich lost 0-3 to Crystal Palace! So far, in December, Norwich have suffered five consecutive defeats and scored 0 goals in 5 games, breaking the 29-year history of the Premier League: for the first time in history since the 1992-93 season was restructured into the Premier League, a team has suffered 5 consecutive defeats and 5 games and 0 goals in 5 games in a natural month!
Since the 15th round, Norwich Have 0-3 Tottenham Hotspur, 0-1 Manchester United, 0-2 Aston Villa, 0-5 Arsenal, 0-3 Crystal Palace, 0-14 on aggregate in 5 games, 0 goals, 14 goals conceded! Had it not been for the postponement of the 18th round and the 14th round of a 1-1 draw with ten-man Newcastle, Norwich could have even lost 7 consecutive games and scored 0 goals in a natural month.
Last season, Norwich won the Championship and this season was promoted to the Premier League as a promoted horse. In the offseason, Norwich had a certain degree of reinforcements, but it was clear that the strength was still far from enough.
Prior to the match against Crystal Palace, Norwich was also short of a major general due to injury and epidemic, so another rout came: in the opening 7 minutes, Odysson Eduardo scored, Norwich 0-1 Crystal Palace; in the 37th minute, Mateta scored, Norwich 0-2 Crystal Palace; in the 41st minute, Schlupp scored another goal for Crystal Palace, and Norwich collapsed 0-3 in the first half. Crystal Palace completed a big victory in only half a game, and it is clear that this season in the Premier League, Norwich are struggling very much and the level is clearly not up to standard!
You know, before the game, Crystal Palace only ranked 14th in the Premier League table, which was originally a mid-level and downstream team, with relegation as its goal. However, even against the middle and lower reaches of the Premier League, Norwich still collapsed 0-3, suffering a 5-0 defeat in December, creating an epic humiliation in the Premier League. At present, Norwich have played the first 19 Premier League games, only 10 points, and in the case of more than two games, they are still three points behind Watford, who are 17th in the safe zone, at the bottom of the table, and perhaps Norwich will have to return to the Championship next season.
