Absolute limbs as Crystal Palace end Liverpool's winning start with 97th minute Nketiah strike

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner to BBC Match of the Day: “We deserved the win. We played an amazing first half and had a deserved lead. To overcome the pressure of Liverpool, they deserved an equaliser but I’m delighted at the reaction of our team.

“Every player is so important, all the subs came on to help us to win the game. I am really proud of the performance.

“We talk about our personality, we always go for the win. Everybody who is close to Crystal Palace got their reward today. The fans will have a great Saturday evening, as will the whole club.

“The players showed so much confidence. We made so many runs, the quality of the passes, runs into the box, it was excellent.

“We will analyse the game and take in all this positivity. I said to the players to enjoy this evening, it is the best recovery. You have to enjoy these moments otherwise you have to ask why you are doing it.”

🗣️”We can learn more from this game, although it wasn’t as if we were perfect until now”

Crystal Palace striker Eddie Nketiah to Sky Sports on his goal: “I just tried to stay calm, got a good first touch and a nice finish.”

On the full time scenes: “That’s what our fans are known for and shows the togetherness of the group. We always keep believing. There was still time to play. The manager said to stay calm and you will get another situation and thankfully we did.

“There aren’t many teams who can create that many chances against Liverpool so a thoroughly deserved three points.

“We are just taking it one game at a time. We have a really good group, we will keep pushing and try to bring more success to the fans.”

I promise I never doubt Mr.Nketiah.😭 #CPFC pic.twitter.com/wRdpliSyhq

Here’s how fans reacted amid absolute limbs as Crystal Palace end Liverpool’s winning start with a 97th minute Nketiah strike…

@cpdaren: Best limbs I’ve ever seen from a steward at the back of the Lower Holmesdale today. Top lad. #cpfc

@CPISAinfo: OMG love our team so much. All we’re going to hear is how poorly Liverpool played when really it should be all about how well we played and that we dominated and stopped them playing well. 18 unbeaten is amazing. COYP #cpfc

@LFC_Inspired: Fair play lads, deserved winners, would’ve been a crime if we got anything from that. Good luck for the rest of the season 👏

@McHardySimon: It’s October next week & @CPFC are 18 games unbeaten & have only lost 4 games of associated football in 2025 . Stop the world I want to get off 🏆❤️💙🦅 #cpfc

@danielwillms575: Best limbs I’ve seen at selhurst in a long while #cpfc

@shave_stuart: We need some help from the Americans now. The window isn’t just about now who we buy. It’s now more important as to what we can keep. Money going out should be first & foremost to what we already have. Everyone we have right now is so important to help keep this going. #cpfc

@crablitt81: Crystal Palace are living the dreams of all the supporters of unfashionable clubs up and down the land and showing what is truly possible. Fans of the ‘Big Six/Eight/Ten’ could never understand #cpfc

@arthurcpfc: What a club, I can’t even believe it at the moment, just unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable scenes. #cpfc

Palace 2-1 Liverpool ⚽️

Wow. Best limbs at Selhurst in some time.No better feeling than giving a big club a taste of their own medicine, 97th minute winner from Nketiah was special.

We deserved that too. What a performance.

GET IN! 🦅 #CPFC pic.twitter.com/3fCeHh1oOe
