Guehi's Late Header Seals Palace's 2-1 Derby Win at Fulham

The win lifts Palace to fourth place in the Premier League.

Overview

  • Eddie Nketiah struck first on 20 minutes before Harry Wilson equalised with an outside-of-the-boot finish.
  • Emile Smith Rowe had a potential Fulham second ruled out after VAR found Samuel Chukwueze offside in the build-up.
  • Captain Marc Guehi decided the match with a near-post header five minutes from time from a Yeremi Pino corner.
  • Palace move to 26 points in fourth, while Fulham remain 15th on 17 and are still without a top-flight home win over Palace since 2005.
  • The outcome underscores Palace’s defensive consistency this season, with only Arsenal holding better clean-sheet and goals-against marks.
