Manchester City vs Crystal Palace Live: Palace pick up huge upset at Etihad – Wilfried Zaha and Conor Gallagher picked up one of the biggest upset wins of the season as Crystal Palace romped past Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on Sunday. Pep Guardiola’s side were pegged early by Zaha’s early goal before a red card for Aymeric Laporte saw them struggling to keep the Eagles at bay, who made the most of their opportunity to pick up a famous win.

Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha and Conor Gallagher scored a goal each to stun champions Manchester City with a 2-0 win in their Premier League clash at the Etihad Stadium on Saturday. Palace took the lead in the sixth minute when Zaha’s scuffed left-footed
shot found its way past Ederson after Aymeric Laporte had been caught in
possession by Gallagher.

The visitors pressed furiously in the opening exchanges as City’s midfield
were allowed little time on the ball, leading to a number of stray passes
and few clear chances in front of goal. Laporte’s dismal afternoon came to a premature end in first-half stoppage time when he was shown a straight red card for bringing down Zaha and denying the Ivory Coast international a goal-scoring opportunity.

Manchester City, however, found their stride after the break and Gabriel Jesus had the ball in the net on the hour-mark, only for it to be chalked off after Phil Foden was found to have been offside in the build-up. Manager Pep Guardiola threw on Riyad Mahrez and Raheem Sterling in the search for an equaliser, but Gallagher put the game
beyond doubt in the 88th minute with an excellent finish following a swift Palace counter-attack.

“When I was doing my badges and he was at Bayern Munich, he opened the doors for me to look in at the full setup and spent some time with me after training and in the evening and that just shows the kind of person he is.”
