"Christantus Uche scored a wonderful individual goal to give a much-changed Crystal Palace side the early advantage in their Conference League clash against Finnish side KuPS at Selhurst Park. Palace boss Oliver Glasner made 11 changes to the team that started against Manchester City last weekend and the additions made their mark almost immediately. Inside the first five minutes, Uche picked up the ball on the edge of the box after a neat passing move out wide."
"The Nigerian cut inside with his left foot to open up a shooting opportunity before curling a sumptuous effort into the far corner with the outside of his right. From there, it was one-way traffic. The hosts, handing several young academy graduates their first-team debuts, dominated the opening 45 minutes and had a handful of chances to increase the lead."
