Intro [Music] it's been a while since Crystal Palace and Chelsea had much in common these two struggling Capital clubs are both feeling a bit sorry for themselves right now it's hard to know quite what to expect this evening apart from a general lack of confidence about the place but if the blues can bring some of the cup magic from Villa Park to sellur park well then we should be cele crating another away win a couple of hours from now fingers crossed for that Trey painful with the injury Teams sustained by Michael Alis add his absence to that of the brilliant eay and maybe their best defender Mark Gay the former blue you almost feel sorry for Roy Hudson who has made two changes tonight a first start for winter signing Adam Walton and a first start for summer signing the Brazilian matus fransa well all were in agreement the Cup replay win at Villa was Chelsea's best performance of the Season selection tonight Made Easy perhaps same again well not quite just one change Thiago Silva in for the injured Bia Shield that may well have happened anyway M and Jackson as the WID men work really well at Villa let's see if it does again here Marin Patrick VI was it for for for That season but still they'll be well aware of what he can do terms of getting in the box and scoring goals first shot on target of the night is as gentle as they come Mayu Mata with the nod down and Will Hughes with the little touch worth a hit Gusto curling one in and uh pretty easy hands that for Dean Henderson was nice to see a pinpoint cross from him the other day onto his head for the 2-n goal at Villa Park should he be tucking in with greater Pace here GOAL Crystal Palace - Jefferson Lerma 30' (1-0) here you can set up differently you could go after the ball can't you and try and win it high or get it in moments like this Mata that's their best chance it's probably the best chance of the game and he didn't really get hold of it it's a pretty routine stop for Petrovic and Chelsea causing themselves their own problems here yeah it's meant for the far Corner doesn't get his angles right see you later dii that's was a good step over that from Mata thankfully the cross found Thiago Silva jeers lurmer thr something out of Mr miyagi's Playbook there and he's won it back Lura more traditional hit here goodness me what a hit that is a bolt from the blue from a player who never scores goals he went for something outrageous missed that did it again and it's flown in astonishing finish Palace won Chelsea nil right on half hour and now that urgency is going to have to be upped well it's a mess from a Chelsea perspective but you you don't expect that I mean that's Unstoppable but there's two or three opportunities Gaga does well though I'm pleased that Michael Oliver waved that one away it would have been easy to give the free kick and that's just poor play from M I don't think actually kaiso can do too much about that given that he's almost on the deck and then he just lets fly cutting across the ball pvic has been so good in a Chelsea shirt to this point he just can't get across there I think he might get fingertips to it he's not going to be able to stop that Sensational doesn't quite get there like me no nobody here expected that can't have these four touches across from one side to the other one and two surely cut out but give him back and here's Connor Gallagher from a tight angle a shot bang on 45 minutes just gave the ball away FR up little bit hesit ation really good mad nice smart decision making just dragged it didn't catch it at all Conor Gallagher quite nicely he's don't even have to look trying to whip it towards the far post and just didn't get enough of the ball cuz uh Jackson's looking sentral to GOAL Chelsea - Conor Gallagher 47' (1-1) me yeah but maybe that's just for now or is there something different going on here I'm on the ball now but they've been very narrow start of the second half first minute or so slightly left good ball ciso Malo Gusto with the cross yes of course Conor Gallagher goals London buses back at cus Park as well perfect start to this delayed second half Palace one Chelsea won men in the box and an early ball and a great cross it's simple when you do it right absolutely the amount of Chelsea shirts that made their way into the 18 y box was Stark and compl comp Arison to the first 45 minutes it's well crafted down the right hand side just switches off doesn't he franer spoke about that in the first half and then Gusto finds the delivery four five Chelsea shirts in there and the connection once more spoke about it at Villa Park that is perfect got to wrap his right foot around it that's a difficult height and he gets the connection firm enough and yeah he's not going to be able to save that Henderson flies into the net [Applause] that's more likeon Edward who put Palace in front that day the Lesser spotted aubameyang had equalized here goes kedo that's a great bit of acceleration from him chilwell definitely worth a hit not quite Jefferson LMA changes coming the palace Bend shortly but danger coming from them here France are able to keep running and shooting and he's battered it thankfully straight enough but Petrovic for it not to be a problem or too much of a problem if that's anywhere near a corner it's 2-1 to them into the final 15 and the cross is in towards mateta who's either about to be that's an offside flag there it's either about to be uh joined by odson Edward or replaced by odson Edward that's a good ball Sterling will keep it in Munos can't foul him curled in by Sterling oh disas he was there head of lacked power more importantly it wasn't anywhere near the GOAL Chelsea - Conor Gallagher 90+1' (1-2) corners Palmer Gallagher is on the gallop want to get the back of the D Conor gallaga he's done it again on the 90th minute Mark at cell Hurst Park lightning strikes twice for the former eagle and his former home that is unbelievable Palace one Chelsea 2 as the clock hits 90 it's him at the death again well brilliant from Conor gallager but huge credit to Raheem Sterling and Palmer Sterling's take on the roundabout the halfway line was brilliant and actually meant that Lura just couldn't make a challenge otherwise we know he would have seen red it would have been another yellow card had he stopped that attack Palmer found on the right hand side and on that occasion the biggest occasion of the night really he picks the perfect pass see Sterling's turn here away from the fullback then away from LMA LMA can't make the challenge and Palmer surveys the scene and can he picked the right option and it's perfect for the first time finish on the edge of the Box doesn't have to even be particularly accurate with the Finish Connor gallaga just has to steer it towards the corner of the net and it's pass Henderson's right boat it's a brace for Conor gallager what a week it's been for him I was just thinking they take a GOAL Chelsea - Enzo Fernandez 90+4' (1-3) point not now here's Conor Gall um Cole Palmer trying to absolutely see it off look at Enzo Fernandez for 3-1 Fernandes that'll do stoppage time Smash and grab and the Blues win at sellur Park late in the day again again it's a a brilliant brilliant finish Enzo Fernandez on this occasion I'm not entirely sure how Palmer got the pass there it's wonderful stuff once more from him and all of a sudden he's created two goals Palmer and added on time and he gets a special finish from Enzo Fernandez he takes his time takes an age in fact it's Palace flooding bodies forward Palmer's got the freedom of the C s par pitch to steam into and then that pass the weight of it the angle just bues his time and he actually Clips it over the defender who's on the deck Muno the fullback just flips it into the near pose taking it away from Henderson ball Lally stopped completely it's a brilliant way to end the night and C the three points well what composure into the top half of the table go Chelsea backto back away wins in cup and League come from behind to do it here with two goals right at the end from Fernandez and the returning Gallagher as history repeats itself behind and pretty awful before the break level straight after it and winners right at the end Sam yeah definitely the the changes at Hal time time you know pivotal certainly in terms of the The Equalizer but then just some brilliant finishing probably aided by the game getting stretched as well latly Conor Gallagher we know he's been liable of doing that throughout his early career he's gone missing across the last 30 35 games or whatever but thank goodness it's back back with a vengeance tonight for those Crystal Palace supporters brilliant double for him and just about deserve three points I would say three points that Mak sure Chelsea are two clear of wolves as the blues move into the top half once again so Fernandez putting the finishing touches on it but this Night Belongs to one man following 44 games for club and Country without scoring it's three goals in less than a week for Connor gallager who is Chelsea's Last Action Hero at sellur Park again Crystal Palace 1 Chelsea 3 and
