""I can't explain it, we gave the game away too easy," Palace boss Glasner said to TNT Sports after his 100th game in charge of the club ended in disappointment. "Maybe it was too easy. There was a lack of intensity and we didn't defend well. "We are not showing a consistent performance over 95 minutes very often. Once it's this [reason], once it's that - and you get punished."
"Burnley, who had not won in 16 Premier League games coming into Wednesday's clash at Selhurst Park, claimed a remarkable 3-2 victory. That outcome did not look likely when new signing Jorgen Strand Larsen scored a double inside the first 33 minutes to put Palace in complete control of the contest. But goals from Hannibal Mejbri and Jaidon Anthony, before a Jefferson Lerma own goal, all in a breathless seven-minute spell at the end of the first half, earned the Clarets victory."
Crystal Palace surrendered a two-goal lead to lose 3-2 to Burnley at Selhurst Park. Jorgen Strand Larsen scored twice for Palace in the first 33 minutes, putting them in control. Burnley, winless in 16 league games, produced three goals in a seven-minute spell at the end of the first half from Hannibal Mejbri, Jaidon Anthony and a Jefferson Lerma own goal to take the lead. Palace have now gone eight home league games without victory after selling captain Marc Guehi to Manchester City. Manager Oliver Glasner cited a lack of intensity, poor defending and absence of consistent leadership across 95 minutes.
