14 h. ago Grealish grabs late winner as Everton end Crystal Palace’s unbeaten run

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 Muñoz gave the visitors a deserved interval lead. There are some miracles that Glasner can not conjure, however, and after Iliman Ndiaye hauled the hosts back into the contest from the penalty spot a fortunate 93rd minute strike from Grealish condemned Palace to their first defeat since 16 April.

Don’t know if you’re allowed to do that.” He was trying to force some tittering, an old lounge act gag to rouse a dead audience. “You know what? Just have a good time.” The comedian who felt his ro...
