Conor Gallagher-inspired Crystal Palace came from behind twice – and scored their first goals of the Patrick Vieira era – to earn a battling draw at West Ham.
Gallagher scored two second half goals to cancel out strikes from in-form duo Pablo Fornals and Michail Antonio and halt the Hammers’ perfect start to the Premier League season.
The point was a well-earned one for Palace who looked like becoming the next side to be swept away by David Moyes’s side after Fornals celebrated his Spain recall by scoring a brilliant first-half opener.
But on-loan Chelsea midfielder Gallagher built on his man-of-the-match debut against Brentford in the second half and provided further evidence to suggest he will be a key figure in Vieira’s first season revolution.
