Jean-Philippe Mateta's first-half header looked like it would earn Palace three points at Selhurst Park on New Year's Day, but Cairney's excellent leveller meant the spoils were shared. Fulham saw Raul Jimenez hit the post prior to Cairney's equaliser, and Timothy Castagne and Joachim Andersen wasted gilt-edged chances to grab the win in second-half injury time.
Having selected an entirely different starting lineup that included four teenagers from the side that lost to Manchester City at the weekend, Glasner saw his second string impress as Christantus Uche gave them a deserved lead at half-time. But it needed a late equaliser from Justin Devenny to salvage a draw after they conceded two goals in the space of three minutes after the break, with the Northern Irishman and Eddie Nketiah coming closest to snatching the victory in stoppage time.
