Palace’s Under-18 side battled hard against their Sheffield United counterparts this afternoon in a stalemate at Champion Hill, with both sides having chances to win the game in a frantic second half that ultimately ended 0-0.
Following their impressive 4-0 victory over Colchester United to start the season, Palace started brightly with Rob Street and John-Kymani Gordon both going close in the first half. Jesuran Rak-Sakyi also had a golden opportunity to give Palace the lead after the restart, but Andre Brooks and then Francis Maguire were inches away from securing a Blades victory late on.
