Ricardo Fuller got sent off for Town but not before he had scored the second goal off his loan spell from Southampton.

Palace took the lead after just 10 minutes when Aki Riihilahti headed Palace in front, their lead only lasted 20 minutes before Tom Soares unluckily deflected into his own net to make it 1-1.

 

7 minutes into the second half the home side took the lead again after Clinton Morrison headed in Ben Watson’s free-kick.

 

Their lead lasted a bit longer then the first one, Ricardo Fuller headed home a Richards cross to make it 2-2, ten minutes later Fuller was shown a red card for making an obscene gesture.
