Decade's best: Palace storm the Emirates - 2019
When Crystal Palace travelled north of the Thames in April 2019, Arsenal had won at home for 10 straight matches and were aggressively pushing for a top-four spot to secure themselves a return to the coveted Champions League.
Conversely, the Eagles were seeking to ensure their Premier League survival and needed just one win to tip them over the 40 points mark. Their visit to the Emirates was not the game they were supposed to earn it.
When Christian Benteke netted 17-minutes into the game, however, Roy Hodgson's men appeared to threaten a truly eye-catching victory.
