Just watched the highlights (again). I love it when the top-six teams knock the ball around with a sense of entitlement, like the Arse did before we scored. You got the same sense when the Arse equalised and everyone assumed that they would go on to win. The commentators too - when Palace scored it was of course "totally against the run of play". Well, that's we do at away games: soak up pressure and score on breakaways.
On a second note: two great calls by the lino for our first and third goals. Benteke was level with the defender when the cross came in for the first, so not offside. For the third, he was standing in an offside position but deemed not to be interfering when Jimmy Mac headed home. Good to see a lino getting these marginal calls right.

 


The right place at the right time

I, as well as most palace fans, expected arse to go on and win once they equalised.

Our second was totally against the run of play.

For our third, it was kayoute standing offside, not benteke.

Apart from that, good post
