I’m not sure that’s a red card - Cook actually played the ball long before Nico arrives and runs into the follow through - Nico was the one who is late arriving…

Nico Gonzalez is hobbling after that challenge but looks like he'll be fine to continue. He was caught about halfway up his shin.

Well, Bournemouth might have had an opportunity against the 10 men of Manchester City. But they're back to square one now down to 10 themselves.

Lewis Cook may well say he got part of the ball but it's about how he follows through. I don't think he needs to follow through like that.
He goes high and catches Gonzalez halfway up his shin.
He can't have any complaints. I think it's purposeful from Lewis Cook, he knows what he's doing.

A really emotional moment as Joel Ward comes off in his final home appearance for Crystal Palace after 13 years at the club.
The Palace fans sing 'there's only one Joel Ward'.

RED CARD - Lewis Cookpublished at 21:31 British Summer Time 20 May
Man City 2-0 Bournemouth
Another red card! This time for the visitors!
It's not a great challenge on Nico Gonzalez. He does get some of the ball but catches Gonzalez on the follow through.
Looks like a sore one, that.

It'll be huge for Man City to get the three points tonight because Fulham away is certainly not a gimme for them.

Ederson has also picked up a yellow card for his protestations against that red card.
Manchester City down to 10, is there something in this now for Bournemouth? Their last effort on target came in the fourth minute.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:29 British Summer Time 20 May
Crystal Palace 3-2 Wolves
Matheus Cunha, linked with a move to Manchester United in the summer, is on for Wolves, so too Marshall Munetsi with Pablo Sarabia and goalscorer Jorgen Strand Larsen the men to make way.

The whole stadium is on their feet signing "Ohh, Kevin de Bruyne".
The Belgian waves goodbye to the City fans for the final time here at Etihad Stadium.

And with that, Kevin de Bruyne's last appearance at the Etihad comes to an end.
He waves to the crowd, hugs his team-mates and his manager as he is serenaded by the Manchester City supporters.
A legend of the club. Nico Gonzalez is on.

Is Ruben Dias going to get round? I think the distance is too great.
Evanilson is alert as ever. Kovacic has got to go, he knows.
Now Man City, from a position where they were coasting, have their work cut out.

Pep Guardiola was having words with Mateo Kovacic there before he headed down the tunnel. He didn't look best pleased.

Out of nowhere, Bournemouth now have a way back into the game.
There are still over 20 minutes to play and it may get nervy around here now.
It's a needless tug from Mateo Kovacic and the Croatian is off.
RED CARD - Mateo Kovacicpublished at 21:25 British Summer Time 20 May
Man City 2-0 Bournemouth
Oh dear. Mateo Kovacic sees red for bringing down Evanilson as the last man.
A straight red card. A shake of the head from Pep Guardiola, he's fuming.

The most important person at Palace over the next few months is Steve Parish. He needs to ensure they keep Eze, Guehi, Muniz, Mateta, etc stay (assuming Glasner is already captured), and then recruit for Europa quality additions 🤞

Manchester City dominating the ball but haven't managed a shot on target this half yet.
Omar Marmoush has another crack from range but it takes a deflection and goes wide.
GOAL - Crystal Palace 3-2 Wolvespublished at 62 mins
Jorgen Strand Larsen (Wolves)
A fifth goal of the game at Selhurst Park. This is such a simple one. Jean-Ricner Bellegarde with an outswinging corner from the left, Jorgen Strand Larsen had peeled away from his marker towards the near post and meets the delivery with a powerful header into the net.

Man City have had a real problem with Rodri out this season. I see a similar problem next year with De Bruyne gone. He's still the conductor of that orchestra and still looks one of their best players.
