Report: Palace un-done by pair of Saints pile-drivers

Crystal Palace fell to an attacking Southampton side under the Selhurst lights this evening, conceding two impressive goals from the boots of Nathan Redmond and Stuart Armstrong respectively.

Summary

  • Palace start with the same XI which kicked-off against Manchester City
  • Nathan Redmond puts Southampton ahead with an excellently driven shot
  • Half-time: Palace 0-1 Southampton
  • The Saints add a second through Stuart Armstrong
  • Full-time: Palace 0-2 Southampton

As in December, when Palace and Southampton faced off under the lights of St Mary’s, the Eagles began tonight’s game filling their own half; soaking up the Saints’ early pressure as Ralph Hasenhüttl’s in-form side sought to make a swift impact.
