MARC GUEHI’S late near-post header stole the points for Crystal Palace in the London derby with Fulham.

Two first-half goals saw the sides deadlocked at half-time and it had been Fulham who had more of the chances before Guehi popped up.

Eddie Nketiah opened the scoring for the away side in the 20th minute for his second strike of the season thanks to a fine ball around the corner from Adam Wharton.

Harry Wilson equalised following a fine team move in the 38th minute. A beautiful move that saw Iwobi punch the ball into the Welshman who bounced a one two around the corner before an outside of the boot effort.

Then after a series of corners where Palace began to turn the screw, they found the breakthrough.

An in-swinging corner from the left hand side found Guehi on the run and he powered his effort past Bernd Leno.
