Jean-Philippe Mateta made the difference as Crystal Palace beat Tottenham 1-0 to claim their first Premier League win of the season.
Coming off the back of three straight defeats, the pressure was on Oliver Glasner, and his team delivered the goods for their fans at Selhurst Park on Sunday.
Their winner came in the 31st minute when Mateta latched onto Eberechi Eze’s clever flick and drilled in from close range.
Brennan Johnson had the best chance for the visitors when his shot struck the post before seeing the rebound cleared off the line by Trevor Chalobah.
But Palace looked most likely to get the game’s second goal, and Eze saw one ruled out for offside while Adam Wharton was thwarted by Guglielmo Vicario.
The Eagles were not made to pay for failing to add a second, however, as they claimed a morale-boosting result that takes them up to 17th, while Tottenham are eighth after two defeats from their last three league matches.
Tottenham attempted just 11 shots in this game, their lowest total in a single match in the Premier League this season.
Of those 11 shots, they managed just three on target as the visitors managed an expected goals (xG) total of just 0.72.
It sees Crystal Palace have beat them for the first time in the Premier League since September 2021, a run of 5 games without a win.
