In the build-up to this fixture, Oliver Glasner said that Palace will embrace the challenges
posed by a busy fixture schedule, which continues today with the visit of Brighton and Hove Albion.
Here come Palace in midfield, Wharton playing the ball in behind, might be the chance to shoot.
It's a nice run in Jean-Philippe Meteta, still going, battling away Ezer now towards the edge
of the box. Meteta might be able to shoot, does shoot and that goal is going to count
and what a beauty it is from Jean-Philippe Meteta. That's a great kick towards Ezer,
who's inside the 18-yard box, can he do something here? He's drilled it just wide of the upright.
He's hit with great force, so was that, that's a good save from the goalkeeper,
it's a double save. Oliver saw what was going to happen, gives it to O'Reilly,
played in by Minter, lovely ball in and there is the equalising goal.
It was a teasing ball in from this right-hand side, still going, Ezer, the England international
has got options, right-hand left goes right, effort drilled across goal, it's taken a deflection
and it's gone in. Daniel Munoz was the player who took aim, it came off a Brighton defender
and it's beaten back from Ruggen, it doesn't matter who got the final touch.
Munoz can get the afterburners on, Munoz towards the edge of the 18-yard box, drills the ball
across goal, it might fall invitingly here for Nketiah, who goes to ground and the referee
has given a free kick Brighton's way. Van Hecke and Eddie Nketiah with a coming together and the
referee might be reaching for a second yellow card here and the free kick here has been awarded
Brighton's way, referee might be reaching for a card, he has, he is exactly where they should be,
Comanda's been caught here and Van Hecke is in big trouble, he's on a yellow card
and Brighton now are down to 10 players. Munoz beats it to it, the effort goes in,
saved by the goalkeeper, here is Henderson and there goes the full-time whistle
and what an afternoon it's been at Selhurst Park, it's ended with the right result, a deserved
victory for Crystal Palace, down to nine players at the end, they've had to work so hard throughout
this game, polar opposite you would have to say, these Crystal Palace fans have been excellent all
afternoon.
