Gallagher stars as Palace see off Everton

Conor Gallagher produced two sensational finishes to fire Crystal Palace to a 3-1 victory against Everton in the Premier League. Everton went into the game on a high after their late victory against Arsenal on Monday Night Football , ending their own run of seven Premier League games without a victory. But they struggled to find any sustained rhythm in the first half and went behind late on as Gallagher (41) fired home his fifth Premier League goal of the season. There was no marked improvement after the break as Palace continued to create the better chances – Gallagher twice going close shortly after the restart. There was an unlikely source for the Eagles’ second too as James Tomkins (62) turned home at the back post after Everton failed to clear Will Hughes’ corner. But Rafael Benitez’s side did keep Crystal Palace from a clean sheet as Salomon Rondon (70) bundled home his fitst goal for the club soon after. The striker had replaced an almost anonymous Richarlison just before t...

Rafa hits back at boos for Richarlison sub: He was injured

Rafael Benitez hit back at the Everton fans that booed his decision to substitute Richarlison in Everton’s defeat at Crystal Palace, citing a “problem in his calf.” With Everton 1-0 down at Selhurst Park, the away fans let their frustrations be known to their manager when Benitez made a double substitution just before the hour mark, bringing on Salomon Rondon and Anthony Gordon to replace Fabian Delph and Richarlison. The Toffees went on to lose the game 3-1, although Rondon did score off the bench. Richarlison, who scored in the 2-1 win over Arsenal in Everton’s previous fixture, looked hugely frustrated to be taken off when he did. Benitez put his arm around the striker and tried to console him on the touchline, though that didn’t improve Richarlison’s mood as he sulkily made his way to the bench. Explaining the decision to replace him, Benitez cited a calf problem and claimed the player knew at half-time there was a strong chance he would be replaced in order to protect him ahe...
