"Oliver Glasner looked on aghast while his Crystal Palace players rubbed their heads and sank to their knees in sheer disbelief. As well they might. Palace's 19-game unbeaten run is over, vanishing against a late and thoroughly unexpected Everton recovery capped by Jack Grealish's first goal for David Moyes' team. Everton have been Palace's bogey team for several years but their first away win since 2014 beckoned after Daniel Munoz gave the visitors a deserved interval lead."
"Palace set the tone for a dominant first-half display from the start with long throws from Chris Richards and Adam Wharton's incisive distribution causing Everton endless problems. Jordan Pickford, making his 300th Premier League appearance for Everton, was called into action twice in the opening two minutes as Yeremy Pino and Tyrick Mitchell found space to shoot from the edge of the area."
Crystal Palace's 19-game unbeaten run ended after Everton recovered late to win thanks to a 93rd-minute Jack Grealish goal. Palace dominated much of the first half, creating repeated chances from long throws and incisive distribution, and repeatedly tested Jordan Pickford, who made several important saves in his 300th Premier League appearance. The home side's chances included shots from Yeremy Pino, Tyrick Mitchell and Jean-Philippe Mateta, and Marc Guehi forced a close-range save. Daniel Munoz gave Everton a deserved interval lead despite Palace pressure. Iliman Ndiaye converted a penalty to level the match before Grealish's injury-time strike delivered Everton victory, denying Palace their first defeat since 16 April.
