"Could things get any better for Crystal Palace? Now the only unbeaten side left in the Premier League having stretched their run to 18 matches thanks to this dramatic late victory over champions Liverpool, Palace are about to embark on their first European tour when they face Dinamo Kyiv in the Conference League on Thursday and have a manager that is proving to be a bit of a genius."
"Arne Slot's expensively assembled side thought they had kept up their run of rescuing late points when Federico Chiesa equalised Ismaila Sarr's opener. But the winning goal came from another substitute as Eddie Nketiah's injury-time sent the home supporters wild as they recorded their first victory against Liverpool here since November 2014. But while Marc Guehi put in another faultless performance against the club that came so close to signing him earlier the month,"
Crystal Palace extended an 18-match unbeaten Premier League run with an injury-time victory over Liverpool thanks to Eddie Nketiah. Ismaila Sarr opened the scoring and Federico Chiesa equalised before the late winner. The win marked Palace's first victory at home to Liverpool since November 2014 and showcased Marc Guehi's strong defensive display. Oliver Glasner's system, implemented over 18 months, is credited with improved set-piece threat and overall consistency. The return of Sarr allowed a settled starting lineup, with Yeremy Pino replacing Eberechi Eze, while Liverpool continue to search for a settled first-choice XI after heavy recruitment.
