There hasn't been much to cheer about for Crystal Palace so far this season, but a run to the EFL Cup fourth round could help change the tide.
Eberechi Eze was at the centre of it all against Queens Park Rangers - clinching a goal and an assist, as well as running riot against his former club.
His vision for the first goal was superb, finding Eddie Nketiah in acres of space in the box and allowing the summer signing to pick out his shot and slot home.
He would have had another assist in the bag moments later, but Nketiah was unable to head his team-mate's looping cross on target.
