Crystal Palace were defeated 3-2 away at Everton.
The Eagles were two goals up but allowed Everton to stage a dramatic second-half fightback to win it.
Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta gave Palace a 21st-minute lead when he headed in Eberechi Eze’s free-kick for his seventh goal of the season.
The Londoners added another on 36 minutes through Jordan Ayew who bundled in a loose ball after the Everton defence failed to clear.
Palace went in at the break worthy of their lead after dominating the first half, but found the hosts a different proposition after the break.
On 54 minutes, Michael Keane fired home after Vitaliy Mykolenko's free-kick was headed back to him by Mason Holgate.
Then Richarlison made it 2-2 with 15 minutes left to get Frank Lampard's relegation battlers back into the game.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored an 85th-minute winner to ensure the Toffees' survival in the Premier League.
