导出博客文章Bournemouth boss has Eddie Howe praised Benik Afobes contribution during their
2-1 win at Crystal Palace on Tuesday evening. The former Wolves striker has now
scored three goals in three games after moving in January, with his goal at
Selhurst Park sealing the win for the Cherries.Howes men came from behind to win
for the first time this season after Scott Dann gave the Eagles the lead just
before the break, but Marc Pugh got Bournemouth level not long after. Afobe
netted from a saved Matt Ritchie shot in the second half to ensure all three
points for the seaside club, and the manager praised his striker for his
contribution throughout the game.Its a great lift for him and a great lift for
us because you need the main striker in your side to give you goals and hes done
that, Howe told Sky Sports after the win.I thought he linked the play very well,
in the second half too. He always works hard and theres more to come. Hes only
young so the future looks bright for him. Benik Afobe celebrates scoring
Bournemouths winner against Crystal Palace It was a great goal from Marc as
well. We needed it at a time when we hadnt really given them too many problems
defensively.It was a great pass from Charlie Daniels and he took it really well,
checked and finished it off. Weve seen him do it many times down the years and
it was great to see that one go in.Crystal Palace certainly had the better
chances throughout the game, but lacked the cutting edge to nab a point, with
Bournemouth condemning the south Londoners to a fifth successive Premier League
defeat. Marc Pugh celebrates scoring Bournemouths first goal of the game But the
Cherries boss was under no illusions that a midweek trip to Selhurst Park would
be a stern test for his side - who still arent completely clear of the
relegation places.A Tuesday night here was always going to be a tough
examination for us, Howe added.Crystal Palace played very well in the first
half, they put a lot of balls in our box and their players were a constant
threat which we didnt deal with very well.It took us until half time to get to
grips with the game and then I thought we got some passing going and caused some
problems in the second half. We were lucky to be in the game and stay in the
game as we did in the first half. We came out as a different side after the
break, we were a lot better and I felt we just about deserved it in the end.

www.zondervan.com.From Chapter 19: The Final Five... [On] Tuesday, August 9, our
team did exactly what we had been training for so many years to do: We performed
almost flawless routines and won team gold. If the all-around win was considered
to be the jewel in the crown, the team medal was the crown itself -- the main
reason we were there. On the podium afterward, feeling the heavy gold disc
around my neck, I felt so privileged to be standing with my teammates. All I
could think was, Wow, we did it. How long have I dreamed about this? We were so
happy for each other and for ourselves, but our job was only half over. The
all-around competition and the event finals were still to come. I wasnt anywhere
near finished trying to make my family and my country proud.That afternoon, we
told Martha that wed named ourselves the Final Five as a tribute to her. When we
explained how wed all agreed on the name, she dabbed the corners of her eyes and
said in her thick accent, Oh my God, I love you guys even more now! And she
hugged us tightly. The rest of the afternoon and evening was a whirl of press
interviews and photo ops, and then it was home to our little pod in the Olympic
Village. We all fell right into bed, because we had to be up for our regular
eight a.m. training the next morning. Before going to sleep, I carefully folded
the green multicolored ribbon around my medal and put it at the bottom of my
backpack. Later, they would give us sleek wooden cases to hold our medals, but
for now, my makeshift storage would have to do.Can you believe we actually did
it? Laurie whispered, stifling a yawn before we drifted off. Were not just
Olympians now; were gold medalists.I was too exhausted from happiness to answer,
so I just smiled. But when I awoke the next morning, I wasnt quite sure if the
day before had all been a dream. I reached for my backpack and pulled out the
medal, just to be sure. I unrolled the green ribbon and placed the gold disc in
the palm of my hand, feeling its distinctive weight as I sent up a silent prayer
of gratitude.Thursday morning, the day of the Olympic all-around competition,
dawned bright and clear. The apartment was silent when I opened my eyes. The
rest of the girls except for Aly had already gone to breakfast. From there they
would head to the training hall. Later, they would be in the gymnastics arena to
see Aly and me battle it out with the best in the world for the coveted
all-around title.I went to find Aly. She was in her room and still in bed. I
feel so good about today, I told her.Me too, she said, hholding up one hand for
a fist bump.ddddddddddddWere so prepared. I have a really good feeling.My heart
was galloping in my chest, but it wasnt nerves; it was excitement. I could
hardly wait to get into the arena. Aly and I each showered and then we did our
hair and makeup together in the living room. We took our time because the
competition wouldnt begin until the early afternoon. I outlined my eyes in gold
glitter and chose a nude lipstick instead of a bold one. The eye makeup, with my
usual winged corners, was dramatic enough, and my sparkly leo would complete the
effect. The night before, wed chosen the leos we wanted to wear and laid them
out on our beanbag chairs. Aly had opted for the shiny red with lines of
crystals fanning out from the neckline like bursts of sunlight, while Id
selected a super patriotic number with sheer white crystal-studded sleeves, and
dazzling red-and-white stripes running from the shoulders down both sides,
framing a high-sheen blue fabric dotted with glittering stars. Id saved this
leotard, my favorite, for the all-around. I hoped its shimmer would help me win
gold.I was already feeling incredibly happy to be sharing this day with Aly, who
was such a rock-solid competitor and friend. As we walked to the bus that would
take us to the arena, we held hands like schoolgirls and bobbed our heads to the
music coming through our headphones. Every so often wed hug each other and say,
Youre good. Youve worked so hard. You deserve to be here. Youve got this. And
then wed say, I love you so much. I love you, no matter what. Today will be a
good day.Our warm-up in the training hall went without a hitch or a fall, and
then it was show time. Before we walked out to compete, we always used the
bathroom just in case. As I washed my hands and stared at my face in the mirror,
my stomach was suddenly doing somersaults. I plopped down on a bench that was
just outside the bathroom and tried to pull myself together. A few moments
later, Aly walked out and sat down beside me. When she leaned her head back
against the wall, I noticed she looked really pale.Are you okay? I said.She
shook her head from left to right.Are you okay? she asked me.No, I said. I feel
like Im going to throw up.The two of us sat there for several minutes, breathing
slowly and trying to settle ourselves down.Were okay, I said after a while.Weve
got this, Aly said.We can do this.Weve done this so many times.I love you, Aly.I
love you, Simone.Lets go.We did another fist bump and walked out onto the arena
floor.Courage to Soar releases on Tuesday, order your copy here.
