#Mat Hodgson

[stoportotouch]

while i know hodgson isn't the sort of man who is unaware that their hair has an enviable curl pattern because they never let it grow out long enough to see it, i also think that irving actually is that persuasion of man. he thinks that using the hair oil as actual hair oil will cancel out the Other Uses that he has found for it but if he didn't do that (and if he let his hair grow out the slightest bit) he would have very nice not-quite-curls-but-close.

New update from Joel today, and I was resonating with what he was saying here. MSTies telling “The Man” what’s up.

Not that there aren’t good and excellent TV shows happening, of course, but I think it is clear that Networks and Studios are completely out of touch with audiences as a whole. I am thinking about the Game of Thrones spin-off show they announced about the Targaryens. It is like, they ruined the most brilliant and popular show in TV history by driving the last season off a cliff, and they want us to get excited about them making another one??? Okay. Sure. You do that, HBO.

It is irrelevant if people actually watch it or not, the fact of the matter is studios are NOT creating with the thought of building something lasting or true. All they care about is chasing social media hashtags and trending spotlights, but that isn’t understanding the hearts of the audience or creating real art. Reactions, hot takes, controversies, fan wars - these aren’t signs of a thriving audience enjoying a story or a show. Signs of an audience enjoying true entertainment and art is perfectly exemplified by the letters Joel and Co. read during the livestream. Where you have children bonding with their parents, children expressing their creativity, people meeting, and friendships and relationships thriving. THAT is a real and powerful legacy of something that withstands the test of time. Mystery Science Theater 3000 is truly something unique and special, and it speaks loudly on its own that we, the fans, have poured so much into making these new seasons happen. It is because the show has given us so much, and we desire to continue that legacy.

Mystery Science Theater 3000 is humbly making TV & Film history and literally no one is watching and taking notes. Oh, American Entertainment Industry, you are like a rotting and putrid corpse, and you don’t even realize it.

Having dinner on HMS Terror, Commander James Fitzjames is bragging about being shot by the Chinese during the Opium Wars. The younger officers are entertained but the older captains are very bored because they've heard the story at least fifty times already. This is inspired by the officer's dinner scene in episode 1 of AMC's The Terror. As I was composing I was wondering how many officers I should put on here and how flat to make the image. At one point the composition nearly went in the direction of the last supper. I have a 'Terror last supper' planned for the future now. But the center of attention in this is Fitzjames so I had to keep him in the middle. I found balance with six characters: Crozier and Franklin sat on the left and Little and Irving sat on the left. Jopson is stood up behind/between Little and Irving, and this balances out the composition because the men on the right are closer to the viewer and there for bigger. I considered putting Hodgson next to Irving but that would have made the composition uneven. There is extra food on the table to emphasize how comfortable everyone feels and their confidence in the adventure ahead. The series uses food as a story telling device so I will be drawing scenes that feature food in my fan art too. The Terror almost uses food the same way as films like Ratatouille and the ones by Hayao Miasaki. The actions in the scene are condensed. I watched it over an over to get it right. While Fitzjames is saying 'I was pierced by a single musket ball, the size of a cherry!' and doing this gesture, Jopson is pouring Irving a drink on the opposite side of the table, but I budged them up to be placed next to Lt Little instead. Little is saying 'Like the shot that killed lord nelson.' here but he doesn't actually say that till Fitzjames has gotten further into the story, but I liked the expressions and wanted to put them all together in the same shot. Irving is enjoying his meal the most. Jopson seems to just really like serving people and Irving is the only one that accepts a top up in this scene. As I analysed this I noticed some weird things about the scene that may have been mistakes like how come everyone is drinking larger (In the previous scene Jopson said he was giving everyone Allsopps, which is a kind of lager), from what look like wine or whiskey glasses? And how come they don't have mats or cloths to keep that well varnished table neat? Do they just do everything backwards in the Navy? This doesn't look at all like lager in the series or here, looks like something stronger. Also considering the glass decanter Jopson is keeping it in. Lager would come from barrels in the store room, not a crystal decanter. Possibly Jopson is just offering everyone a shot of something stronger as the meal comes to an end. Also, I'm just going to point out episode 1's dinner scene pays homage to the dinner scene in Alien, hello Riddle Scott, you sweet, kind man.

"I never had any ambitions. I truly never had any ambition of anything. "  -- Roberto Duran

Boxing is a sport that exposes a fighter's strengths and weaknesses under the brightest lights. Even those who have proven to be ranked amongst the annals of the all-time greats have shown that even they can be exposed.

Throughout the history of boxing, there have been few fighters who have had a career like Panama’s Roberto “Hands of Stone” Duran (103-16, 70 KOs).

With a career that spanned over four decades and 119 fights, there have been many ebbs and flows of positivity and negativity in Duran’s time spent inside the squared circle.

British filmmaker Mat Hodgson in his new documentary “I Am Duran” takes a look at the cultural and political aspects of his life that had an impact on his boxing career. The film succeeds in showcasing why Duran is considered a legend and in many respects helps that legend grow.

“It’s drama, people can relate to drama at the end of the day,” stated Hodgson in an interview with Frontproof Media in association with RBR Boxing. “Whether it’s about boxing or whether it’s about aliens landing. It’s drama. That’s what you need in a film to draw in those other audiences.”

Hodgson is no stranger to the world of boxing as he directed a documentary on former British world champion Ricky Hatton in 2013 called “Night of the Fight: Hatton’s Last Stand”. The documentary surrounded Hatton’s final fight of his career against Vyacheslav Senchenko.

Much like Hodgson’s film on Hatton, “I Am Duran” does focus on certain fights in Duran’s career that helped progress the film’s story. Duran’s Lightweight career in some respects takes a backseat as only one match from his time in the weight class is highlighted.

“It’s difficult because you can’t show everything,” said Hodgson. “You want to show everything, but you have to select, you have to edit, you have to filter. And we felt that there were some pillars to Duran’s career that we would use as pillars to our story.”

Most fans and pundits when it comes to Duran’s career will focus mainly of his fights with the “Fab Four” with Ray Leonard, Thomas Hearns, and Marvin Hagler.

While these bouts do have a large portion of focus throughout the film, some of the best stories of the Panamanian’s time in the ring are lesser-celebrated matchups where the focus is strictly on Duran.

The one Lightweight bout that is featured in the film is Duran’s first world title victory in June of 1972. At the time Duran was only 21 years of age, and he was challenging veteran Ken Buchanan for the WBA Lightweight championship at Madison Square Garden.

Duran would ultimately stop Buchanan after the thirteenth round to win his first world title. The fight highlights the ferocity in which Duran fought at even such a young age.

In the documentary, Buchanan is interviewed, stating, “I was a boxer, he was a fighter.”

Throughout the film, there is a theme of internalized anger with Duran. In many instances, Duran’s life outside of the ring influenced how he performed inside the ring.

Whether it is from his lack of a relationship with his father, which is only briefly touched on in the film, or his being raised in the dangerous “Canal Zone” of Panama, Duran carried anger with him anytime he stepped between the ropes.

“You’re really starting this at rock bottom, and he would have had no ambition in life because that was what would been drilled into him by his environment as a young boy,” stated Hodgson. “He’s not the first fighter to have been born to abject poverty. But he had a brutal, brutal upbringing.

And it’s horrific to think a young boy could go through that. I think that’s where the anger would have come out. He is an angry fighter, and I think that’s a product of that environment for sure.”

One of the significant bouts highlighted in the film is Duran’s fight with Davey Moore for the WBA Junior Middleweight title. The match took place on Duran’s 32nd birthday on June 16, 1983, in front of a raucous crowd at Madison Square Garden.

With the film showcasing Duran at his weakest in and out of the ring, specifically in the aftermath of the “No Mas" bout with Leonard, the fight with Moore shows a resurgence for a fighter that thought he lost more than just a boxing match.

The fight with Moore contributed to Duran receiving The Ring Magazine’s Comeback of the year in 1983. To this day Duran is the only fighter to win the award twice as he also received the award in 1989.

The politics of Panama that coincide with Duran’s career are shown in the film with a focus on political figures like Omar Torrijos and Manuel Noriega. The film accomplishes in showing just how much of a legend Duran is viewed as in Panama.

Panamanian political commentator Juan Carlos Tapia in the film, states, “There is always a mix of legend and reality about the heroes of a country.”

Duran comes from an era in the sport that is considered to be one of the best and is often viewed as a ‘golden era.’ With the boxing world and the world, in general, having changed so much since Duran’s prime, it is doubtful that we will see many fighters like him in the future.

“There was kind of, they thought a bit more liberated, I would say back then boxers, it felt like there wasn’t tactical master plan of a career path,” said Hodgson. “We’re seeing it a lot now, people waiting and waiting. That didn’t happen in that era. These guys were monsters who just took each other on.”

Boxing, as a whole for years, has been categorized as a niche sport, a sport that has had its death called upon for decades. However, what drives sports are relationships and characters.

Few characters in boxing history have sustained a relationship with boxing fans quite like Roberto Duran. Boxing may be a niche sport, but the story behind the man is something that all people can have something in common with.

“I think that Duran is a film that we’re exceptionally proud of and hopefully it will stand the test of time,” stated Hodgson. Boxing fans are so enthusiastic. They are not like other sports fans. I’ve done other sports, and you get a mixed response sometimes, often because other sports are quite tribal. But Boxing seems quite an open sport as far as fans go. People love talking boxing.”

Boxing is a sport like all others that will continue to change and evolve as time passes.

What “I Am Duran” brings to the forefront is what it means to be a hero. Duran is a hero in Panama, not a perfect one, but a diverse one that brings people of all types together in unison.

"I Am Duran" isn't just a documentary about a boxer, but a story about the human condition told through the eyes of a cultural hero.

“I’m Glad It’s Wick” (Bastien and Rinda Alternate Universe)

"It's as wick as you or me," he said; and Mary remembered that Martha had told her that "wick" meant "alive" or "lively."

"I'm glad it's wick!" she cried out in her whisper. "I want them all to be wick. Let us go round the garden and count how many wick ones there are."

-- Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden

Masterlist

Book: The Royal Romance (After Book Three) Pairing: Bastien Lykel x OC Rinda (Parks) Lykel Word Count: 1,568 Rating: M for Language Triggers: Mention of miscarriage and grief, non-graphic description of a child’s birth. Author’s Note: This is my submission for the @meeraaverywalker Choices March Challenge #3 Fluff, #5 Gardens, #9 Rainbow (Pregnancy/Baby), #10 Birth, and #30 Family. I’m posting so early because work gets crazy this month AND because it’s @bobasheebaby‘s birthday. This is an alternate universe for Bastien and Rinda!

Obligatory disclaimer that Pixelberry Studios owns the TRR characters and my pocketbook with those darn diamond scenes. Rinda with all of her quirks is all mine. My apologies if Tumblr or I do something stupid when I try to post this. The keep reading link shows up on my laptop but not my phone. Ugh.

Thank you @asherella-is-a-dork-3 and @bobasheebaby  for always being my sounding board! Thank you @cora-nova @silviasutton1989 ​ @riseandshinelittleblossom​ @tornbetween2loves for still being a part of the journey! Summary: This is an alternate universe for Bastien and Rinda! Rinda doesn’t want another child because she and Jameson experienced two miscarriages, and she’s 42 and a lot could go wrong with her advanced maternal age. Bastien is supportive of this, and they both agree that another child would be a blessing, but they know the risks and he won’t put her though that again. HOWEVER, when I saw the “birth” prompt I had to be a part of the sweet fluff! Hmm. Maybe it shouldn’t be alternate universe? 😊

In my fics Liam’s mother is Queen Évelyne and Bastien had a crush on her, but it was never reciprocated. Her favorite book was Frances Hodgson Burnett’s The Secret Garden, and she created the garden with its mazes and rose-covered tree to recreate the book’s magic of finding the garden and feeling that sense of belonging, selflessness, and renewed life that it brought the main characters.

“I’m Glad It’s Wick” (Bastien and Rinda Alternate Universe)

Bastien and Rinda were in the garden maze, holding hands and enjoying the beautiful evening. Rinda took a deep breath. “I love the smell of the roses. And you know I love how the roses ramble all over. You can’t tame them.” Bastien smiled and kissed her. “Just like you. That’s why you’re my Tria.” Triantáfyllo. The Greek word for rose. Rinda’s face beamed. “Ich liebe dich, Mein Herzschlag.” I love you, My Heartbeat. “Und ich liebe dich, meine geliebte Rinda Rose.” And I love you, my beloved Rinda Rose. . . . . . The doctor told them enough time passed since Bastien’s vasectomy, so they stopped using condoms. However, Queen Évelyne’s Secret Garden was a magical place. When Rinda missed her period she knew without a doubt their child was conceived under the tree with the rambling roses. Rinda was so excited, but so afraid. Her last two pregnancies ended in miscarriage, so she wasn’t able to feel that pure joy anymore. That elation she felt when she was pregnant with Henry, before she knew the pain of loss. She was so excited to tell Bastien, yet so afraid. Afraid they would lose their child. Afraid that her fear would stifle his joy. But when Rinda saw his eyes light up she kissed his idiotic grin, teasing him about the birds and the bees when he stammered “But how?” Bastien kissed her again and again, tears of joy on his cheeks, and Rinda felt hope. It will be okay. He kissed her stomach and told their child how much he loved them, how he couldn’t wait to meet them. Our child will be okay. She smiled when Bastien held her hand at their first ultrasound, how he squeezed it even tighter when he heard the whoosh whoosh of their child’s strong heartbeat. Tria, it sounds like horses galloping. He made copies of the ultrasound picture, giving them to everyone he could think of: her parents, Mr. Ariti, Cassie and her parents, Brigitte and George, Drake and Laura, Savanah and Bertrand, Liam and Riley, Leo and Katie, Alicia and Santos, Julian and Theo, Nadia and Kathleen, Collin and Deirdre, and even Notin and Maxwell. Yes, Maxwell could even have another copy because Betsy Beaumont the Bad-Ass Bastard Bird ran off with it when Maxwell tried to show him. Rinda smiled, her heart breaking. She knew it was tempting fate to share anything before 12 weeks, but she couldn’t deny her Tiger that joyful bliss. The weeks turned into months, and Rinda was finally able to relax. She laughed at the quickening, that feeling of bubbles popping when she first felt their baby move. It was too soon for Bastien or Henry to feel anything, but she still told them each time she felt it. She shared stories with them from her pregnancy with Henry. He liked to stretch out and explore. Rinda was so sore from his feet always in her ribs, and she swore she could feel his creepy little fingers exploring inside her womb. She told them how she would stand next to the empty crib, her arms wrapped protectively around her stomach, as she sang to Henry and told him how she couldn’t wait to meet him. And oh, the fun they would have when he was here. Bastien was already a doting father, but he made sure to spend extra time with Henry. He would always be Henry’s Bonk, and Henry would always be his Knuddelbär. That would never change. When Ollie first began sniffing Rinda’s stomach, realizing something was different, Bastien tensed. He began taking Ollie for longer walks and talks, explaining that Ollie would have another person in their house to guard. Of course Ollie was a good boy, and he quickly fell into the role of following Rinda around the house, cuddling up to her and resting his head on her lap when no one else was home. When the nursery was ready, Bastien let Ollie into the room. Ollie took several serious sniffs and turned in numerous dog circles before plunking down next to the rocker. That would be his spot to protect the baby when they were born. And of course Bastien was also a doting father to their Nesthäckchen, baby of the family, always reading books, whistling, and singing to Rinda’s stomach. When Rinda suddenly grabbed Bastien’s hand and held it on her side, his eyes widened when he felt their child move for the first time. And every night after they tucked in Henry, Bastien would gently rub Rinda’s stomach, give it a kiss, and say goodnight to his girls. Yes, she was a girl. Bastien just knew, and Rinda knew he was right. He was always rewarded with a goodnight kick that made Rinda wince, but she loved to hear him chuckle when their Nesthäckchen did that. She’s going to be a football player, Tria. Then Rinda would snuggle in his arms as Bastien kept his hand over her stomach, protecting their daughter, while Ollie took turns guarding the door to their room and Henry’s room. . . . . . Rinda was between Bastien’s legs, gripping his arms and leaning against him for support as he helped her push. Now he was leaning forward, hands under Rinda’s knees to lift them, slowly counting to ten as she bore down during each contraction. “She’s almost here, Tria. I can see her head. Sweetheart, you’re doing so good.” Rinda was shaking, exhausted. But Bastien guided her hand to feel their baby’s head. Then Rinda scrunched her face in determination, bearing down, grunting, pushing with everything she had left as Bastien helped her bring their child into the world. Bastien was beaming with pride when Rinda reached between her legs to pick up their daughter, and he helped Rinda settle their Évelyne Rose on her chest as their daughter instinctively nuzzled in to nurse. Her mouth was open, like a baby bird waiting to be fed, and Rinda chuckled as she guided Évelyne to her breast. Rinda’s curls were matted down with sweat, but Bastien lovingly ran his fingers through them and kissed his wife’s head. “You’re my beautiful Tria and you’ve given us our beautiful daughter. And I love you both so, so much.” Afterward the nurses took Évelyne to clean her, and when they brought her back she was swaddled in a blanket and wearing a hat. Évelyne hated it. She squawked and fussed until her papa took off the hat and unwrapped her, placing Evelyne back on Rinda’s chest. Then Évelyne gave a happy squeak, stretching out before curling back up on her mother’s chest. Bastien gently tucked the blanket around them, Evelyne’s defiant dark curls poking out from under it. Later Bastien solemnly counted ten fingers and ten toes, making sure they were all there--although Papa Toe Monster did nibble at a few delicious toes while Henry laughed at his Bonk. Évelyne was absolutely perfect, except she wouldn’t open her eyes. Instead, she lazily nursed some more and then fell asleep in her mother’s arms. When Henry held her, she farted loudly and gave her big brother a toothless grin that lit up her face. She has my Tria’s smile. But she wouldn’t open her eyes to see her brother’s shocked reaction when he realized her farts were smellier than his. . . . . . It was their first night as a family, but they were still in the hospital and Bastien couldn’t sleep. He gently eased Henry’s head off his lap before standing up and getting Henry resettled on the couch. Rinda was asleep, although Bastien knew she would wake at the slightest sound from Évelyne. He gently kissed his wife’s head before unbuttoning his shirt and picking up Évelyne, holding her against his bare skin. He looked at his daughter with solemn eyes. “Okay, Little Miss. This is your papa. I know it’s been a long day, but you haven’t opened your eyes for us yet.” He kissed her forehead. “Évelyne? Show me your eyes, sweetheart.” Évelyne arched and stretched as she slowly opened her eyes and stared, unblinking, into her father’s eyes. Bastien’s breath caught. They were the eyes of an old soul. Tranquil waters colored by the reflection of a silvery moon. “Thank you, my precious girl. Now remember, you must always listen to your papa because I love you so much and I don’t want you to break my heart.” Évelyne gave him a defiant little squawk and promptly shut her eyes again. Bastien chuckled as he held her tucked against his chest, her troll doll hair tickling his chin. “That’s okay Schatziküken. Treasured Little Bird. Your dearest mama doesn’t listen to me either. But I still love you, and I always will.” Évelyne nestled closer to her papa, lulled to sleep by the sound of his heartbeat. Her hand rested on his chest, against a scar from his childhood, and Bastien held his breath for a moment. Then he sat back down on the couch, one arm still holding Évelyne while he gently massaged Henry’s back. “I promise your mama and I will keep you both safe, and we won’t let anyone hurt you.” He looked over at Rinda who was still asleep in the bed, her wild curls poking out from the covers. His family. Their family. “I love you all. So, so much.”

The Benefits of Dog Lick Mats, According to a Dog Trainer and Behaviorist

New Post has been published on https://medianwire.com/the-benefits-of-dog-lick-mats-according-to-a-dog-trainer-and-behaviorist/

The Benefits of Dog Lick Mats, According to a Dog Trainer and Behaviorist

Ever heard of a dog lick mat? Somewhat similar to a slow feeder, a lick mat is a flat dog treat mat often constructed of rubber or silicone with textured surfaces and grooves. Pet parents can spread the mats with softer goodies like wet dog food, peanut butter, or pumpkin.

The act of licking is calming for dogs, plus it can keep them busy while you’re on a Zoom call or need to distract your dog for several minutes. Plus, it’s relatively mess-free—reward your pup with peanut butter without worrying about your carpet or furniture in the process.

What Are the Benefits of Dog Lick Mats?

Lick mats are used for various reasons with several benefits for pups. Sarah Hodgson, certified trainer and behavior consultant, gives her advice on the best times to implement a lick mat with your pup.

1. To Soothe Anxiety

Since it takes a bit longer to eat all the treats, a lick mat can serve as entertainment for a bored or anxious dog. “The repetitive action of licking is shown to release endorphins in the brain that in turn cause a calming effect [in cats and dogs],” Hodgson says. Try implementing a lick mat to help gradually shift your dog’s emotional responses to their triggers, such as traffic noises, delivery people, and even other dogs (this is known as counterconditioning and desensitization).

2. To Channel Energy

If your dog gets super excited when family comes home or when visitors arrive at your house, try giving them a lick mat before people enter the home to channel that excitement and nervous energy into an activity instead of excessive barking and jumping.

3. To Calm Young Puppies

While working on socializing your puppy, lick mats try implementing a lick mat to help desensitize them to various stimuli in new environments. “During socialization outings, lick mats can be used to create positive associations to unfamiliar noises or situations,” Hodgson says.

4. To Train During Outings

If you’re trying to teach your dog how to chill out in public (maybe so they can join you at a dog-friendly patio one day), a lick mat can be a great tool to use to help them relax. “When teaching a dog to stay calm during a meal or outing, I bring a mat for my dog or client’s dog to sit on, then provide a lick mat in order to help center and transition them to being still,” Hodgson says.

What Should I Put on My Dog’s Lick Mat?

The lick mat opportunities are endless—choose foods or treats that you know your dog enjoys. “You can spread individual spreads or mash several together,” suggests Hodgson. You can even pop the lick mat in the freezer, which can extend the enrichment time and offer a little extra challenge for pups. Try a few of these as inspiration:

Canned dog food

Nut butters

Mashed sweet potatoes

Mashed bananas

Sardines

Yogurt

Can I Leave My Dog Alone with a Lick Mat?

Just like most scenarios, you know your dog best. Do they tend to chew while you’re away, or are they content to sleep on the couch? Hodgson suggests introducing lick mats when you’re nearby to supervise to ensure they don’t try to flip the mat or use it as a chew toy. When they’ve sniffed out every last bit of peanut butter or dog food, put the mat away to deter them from playing with it and accidentally damaging it.

With more practice, your pup will start to understand the proper use of the dog lick mat. “Provided they don’t [chew], a lick mat can even provide a soothing outlet to shield from the angst of being left behind,” says Hodgson.

Crystal Palace 1-1 Brighton & Hove Albion: Wilfried Zaha rescues Palace point

New Post has been published on https://thebiafrastar.com/crystal-palace-1-1-brighton-hove-albion-wilfried-zaha-rescues-palace-point/

Crystal Palace 1-1 Brighton & Hove Albion: Wilfried Zaha rescues Palace point

Wilfried Zaha has scored six goals against Brighton, more than against any other side

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson said Wilfried Zaha has improved the mental side of his game after the forward rescued a point against rivals Brighton & Hove Albion.

Zaha smashed in an equaliser from the edge of the box for injury-hit Palace, who toiled for 70 minutes and trailed to Neal Maupay’s fine finish into the top corner shortly after half time.

Ivory Coast winger Zaha – the second-most fouled player in the Premier League this season, behind Aston Villa’s Jack Grealish – was impeded five times at Selhurst Park.

But he kept his composure to score his sixth goal against the Seagulls, who paid for failing to take their chances when on top.

“Wilf is doing extremely well mentally because things happen in the game – taunts from the crowd and little fouls off the ball – which he isn’t allowing to upset him as he might have done before,” said Hodgson, who was marking his 100th match as Palace manager.

Palace’s recovery extended their unbeaten run to four games, as the point moved them above Arsenal into ninth place; Brighton are 13th.

Crystal Palace 1-1 Brighton: Roy Hodgson delighted by ‘gutsy’ Palace performance

“It was an incredibly gusty performance, full of character and determination because when they took the lead you could not say it was unjust,” said Hodgson.

“But for us to stay in it with all the problems and ending up playing with a central midfielder [James McArthur] at left-back against a very good team like Brighton [was impressive]. Brighton’s performance was as good as any team we’ve seen here at Selhurst Park this season.”

Brighton manager Graham Potter told BBC Sport: “Apart from a five-minute spell, we were really good and controlled the game. Of course, we didn’t get the second goal. We played really well but one action from a top player does you.”

Brighton pay the price again

Crystal Palace 1-1 Brighton: Plenty of positives – Graham Potter

It was a familiar tale for Brighton – dominating possession, creating chances and failing to win.

They played like the home team in one of the Premier League’s more unusual derbies, which developed in the 1970s because of a rivalry between the two clubs’ managers at the time – Terry Venables at Palace and Alan Mullery at Brighton.

Most of Brighton’s efforts in the first half were from long range, as Palace held them at arm’s length.

Aaron Mooy curled wide from outside the box, while Yves Bissouma and Pascal Gross had efforts from distance saved.

They had a strong penalty appeal when Jairo Riedewald clipped Martin Montoya as the full-back was shooting – but after a long delay for a video assistant referee review, nothing was given.

It was more of the same after the break and Albion’s goal involved some fine football. Bissouma sprayed a ball out right for Leandro Trossard, who volleyed a cross – which Gross diverted into the path of Maupay, with the forward scoring for a third consecutive game.

Davy Propper, Maupay, Bissouma, Trossard and Montoya all had shots saved as Brighton looked to end the game.

“In the Premier League you know if you don’t get a second goal – and the home crowd get behind the team – the environment changes,” said Potter.

They were made to pay when Zaha crashed in the equaliser. With Palace then looking the more likely winners, Potter brought on defenders Shane Duffy and Bernardo for midfielders in the closing stages to see the game out.

“We could always look to improve and do something better but you have to hold your hands up to the quality of the strike,” said Potter.

“They were putting balls into the box and we could have dealt with that better. But we created a lot of opportunities. There is lots to take forwards in a positive way.

“We dealt with it [Palace’s play] OK but not well enough because they scored. We kept them as quiet as we could but not enough.”

Palace snatch a result again

If Brighton seemed to be following a familiar story, so too did Palace.

Only Watford, who are bottom of the table, have scored fewer than Palace’s 15 Premier League goals. The Eagles’ total number of shots this season – 161 – is lower than anybody else in the top flight, and yet they are in the top half.

Hodgson said before kick-off that he was experiencing the worst injury crisis he has had at the club, with six first-team players out. “The team you see tonight is the team we can field,” he said – and added that he hopes to sign players in January.

After a first half in which his side failed to create a single chance, Hodgson brought on James McCarthy at half-time for Riedewald, who had been making his first Premier League start since February 2018.

Their first shot – excluding a Christian Benteke cross which hit the crossbar – did not come until the 68th minute, with Max Meyer missing the target. Yet in the final 22 minutes, they had 11 shots.

Zaha was Brighton’s nemesis again. Luka Milivojevic crossed from the right and James Tomkins headed the ball down to the Ivory Coast international, who controlled the ball and cut on to his left foot before smashing a shot into the near top corner of the net.

From that stage on, Palace were the more likely winners. Benteke – who has scored one goal for Palace since April 2018 – forced three saves from Mat Ryan, while Jordan Ayew shot over from outside the box.

“We got the tactics wrong. We were determined to take the game to them and play on the front foot but it didn’t work because they played around us and we didn’t win the ball back as we thought we might,” said Hodgson.

“We shored things up in the second half by bringing Wilfried Zaha and Jordan Ayew into a deeper position. We gave Brighton the wing space more than the central space and we restricted them largely to shots from distance.”

Man of the match – Davy Propper (Brighton)

Davy Propper helped Brighton dominate the ball – with 74 out of his 80 passes being successful

‘Palace will need to change’ – analysis

Former Crystal Palace striker Clinton Morrison on BBC Radio 5 Live: “I like what Brighton are doing. A new manager has come in and they’re playing exciting football – but I don’t think that is [ever going to be] Crystal Palace.

“Under Roy Hodgson, they are never going to change. Hodgson is really good at what he does; he sets them up to be hard to beat and they play a lot on the counter-attack.

“But when they lose Wilfried Zaha – and it’s going to happen either in January or the summer – they are going to have to change their style of football because they aren’t going to have Zaha there who can win a game individually.”

Match stats – Hodgson joins Dowie and Warnock club

Crystal Palace are unbeaten in four Premier League games (W2 D2), after losing four out of five before that.

Brighton are unbeaten in three Premier League games for the first time since January (W1 D2).

Roy Hodgson oversaw his 100th game as Crystal Palace manager in all competitions (W37 D24 L39), becoming the third manager to reach the milestone for the club in the 21st century, after Iain Dowie (123 games) and Neil Warnock (146 games).

Neal Maupay’s opener for Brighton was the first goal Crystal Palace conceded in 329 minutes of Premier League action.

Maupay has scored in each of his past three Premier League appearances, as many as his previous 13 in the division.

He is only the second player to score for the Seagulls in three consecutive Premier League games, after Glenn Murray in November 2017.

Pascal Gross has provided 14 assists in the Premier League for Brighton, twice as many as any other player for the club.

What’s next?

Both sides are in Premier League action on Saturday at 15:00 GMT. Crystal Palace are away to Newcastle, with Brighton hosting Sheffield United.

What happened to England’s Euro Under-21 Championship squad from 10 years ago?

It’s safe to say that English football has been on an upwards trajectory over the past decade.

A World Cup semi-final appearance was an culmination of meticulous planning off the pitch to restore the Three Lions as one of the greatest international teams in the world.

Ten years ago, England’s Under-21 squad reached the final of the Euro U21 Championship, eventually losing 4-0 to a Germany team that included the likes of Manuel Neuer, Jerome Boateng, Mats Hummels, Benedikt Howedes, Sami Khedira and Mesut Ozil.

While those players went to on to play a massive part in the German team for years to come, how many of England’s squad went on to achieve success?

We have taken a look at where the squad has ended up…
