PL2 report: Crystal Palace 3 Chelsea 3
17 SEP 2022
Our development squad surrendered a 3-1 lead late on to only come away
with a point at Selhurst Park as the young Eagles' late show prevented us
making it back-to-back wins in PL2.

An Omari Hutchinson brace and a Cesare Casadei goal saw us go 3-1 up away
from home but we could not withstand the late pressure as two goals in the
final eight minutes of the game saw us surrender our lead and settle for a
point.
Bar an early chance from Malcolm Ebiowei, it was our young Blues who were
looking more like the unbeaten team at the start the season, as we were
playing with confidence and conviction.
Hutchinson was at the root of all our good chances, putting in dangerous
crosses which were causing the hosts several issues.
The former Arsenal man grabbed his first goal for his new club not too
long into the first half as he latched onto a pass from Mason Burstow and
finished well with his weaker foot.

There were several chances throughout the half for our lead to be doubled
with Hutchinson hitting the post from a free-kick and Rankine firing over
from close range.
Hutchinson grabbed his brace not long into the second half as he was
quickest to the rebound after Owen Goodman made a good save from a Casadei
header.
The hosts did respond and received some good fortune as a scramble in the
box saw the ball fall into the path of David Omilabu who made no mistake
from close range.
We scored our third though as a Lewis Hall's shot was heavily deflected
off Casadei to find the net.
There was cause for concern as Palace scored their second through David
Uzoh with just under 10 minutes left in the game and the unimaginable
happened as Jack Wells-Morrison scored the all important leveller for the
home team.
== Team news ==
Mark Robinson decided to start with a back four handing a first start of
the season to Derrick Abu at right-back. Ben Elliott returned to the
starting line-up too after his last start came in the opening weekend win
over Wolves. Dylan Williams was another who came into the side for his
first PL2 start this season. There was also a change in the goal as Eddie
Beach replaced Ted Sharman-Lowe in the line-up.

time out in the PL2
== Frantic start ==
It was almost a terrible start for our development squad as winger Ebiowei
who has already made a first team appearance under Patrick Vieira jinked
his way into the box and fired just over the bar.

Derrick Abu made his first start at this level today
The game started with a fast tempo from both sides and a lovely touch from
Elliott set us on a fast counter-attack as Hutchinson exchanged passes
with Rankine but leant back as his shot just inside the area flew over.
A long stoppage in play to attend to a Palace injury took the sting out of
the game for a while but our young Blues were in control of the ball.
== Firm lead ==
Hutchinson floated a delightful ball into the box which found Rankin at
the back post, but a well-timed challenge snuffed out the danger.
We should have taken the lead as a cross fired across goal from Burstow
found Rankine at the back post and with the goal gaping, the young
winger's first-time left-footed effort went just over. A huge let-off for
the home side.
We were not to be denied however, as two minutes later Hall found Burstow
who fed Hutchinson who was through on goal. The summer signing was
rewarded for his fine start to the game as he drilled past Goodman in goal.

== Fluid football ==
It was clear that Hutchinson was filled with confidence, and he almost
created a wonderful goal, nimbly finding his way into the box, hurdling a
few challenges before having his pass intercepted.
The young Eagles were struggling to create chances in the opening 30
minutes of the game as our development squad were combining well and
threading passes through the Palace midfield.
Hutchinson almost doubled the lead as he struck a free-kick from distance
which cannoned off the post and the rebound was fired back on goal by
Gilchrist, but his effort dropped wide with the ball just missing the
outstretched leg of Humphreys.
The game became a little bit cagey with numerous stoppages in play and
some fouls which slowed down the intense nature of the game. On the stroke
of half-time, the home side worked a free-kick into the box and a towering
header from Killian Phillips dropped just wide of the goal.
There was enough time for one more chance before the half-time whistle and
it was Burstow who attempted an ambitious, caressed effort which had
shot-stopper Goodman scrambling, however the shot just went over the bar.
== Omari brace ==
The second half was more of the same as we continued to find the spaces
that were causing issues for the hosts.
We doubled those issues for the team from south London by scoring our
second and it was Hutchinson who grabbed his second. A lovely move saw Abu
cross for the hanging Cesare Casadei who drew a world-class save from
Goodman, but he could do nothing about the on-rushing Hutchinson who
blasted into the empty net.
The home side's first real period of sustained pressure gave them the goal
they had been looking for. Gordon received the ball on the wing. Driving
into the box he fired an effort which was blocked but fell fortunately
into the path of Omilabu who swept home.
It was not long till we increased our advantage as we received similar
fortune to the home side's first. A good move saw Elliott lay the ball off
to Hall whose shot deflected heavily off Casadei and wrong-footing the
keeper to find the net.

== Individual errors ==
Second-half substitute Leo Castledine was looking to make his mark and he
almost found the net as his driven shot only just flew wide.
A lapse in concentration almost allowed the hosts to get another goal but
a last-ditch challenge from Williams diverted the volley from Gordon wide
of the goal.
Crystal Palace were not to be denied however as a sloppy pass from the
backline allowed Uzoh to drive into the box and slot under Beach.
This set up the game for a grand-stand finish in the final few moments of
the game. There were some nervy moments from our young Blues, and we
failed to contain the hosts as they poured forward.
They levelled in stoppage time when Wells-Morrison struck a sweet volley
past Beach and what seemed impossible early on happened as Palace had
their third.
A heroic header off the line from Gilchrist prevented the home side from
winning the game late on but that was how the game would end - an exciting
3-3 draw as the hosts preserve their unbeaten start to the season.

== What this means? ==
We rise one place into sixth with today's draw as a chance to jump into
the top four was scuppered by the late show from the young Eagles. With
the international break imminent, we are next in action on Saturday 1
October when we entertain Leicester City at Kingsmeadow.
