Nketiah bags a brace in Crystal Palace win over Wolves

Date:

Eddie Nketiah scored twice and FA Cup hero Eberechi Eze was also on target as Crystal Palace continued their celebrations from winning their first major trophy at the weekend by beating Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Eagles stunned Manchester City at Wembley on Saturday to win the FA Cup and that moment was celebrated by the fans in the build up to this fixture, with not even falling behind when Emmanuel Agbadou headed in spoiling the party mood.

And Palace turned the game on its head thanks to two Nketiah goals in five first-half minutes.

The former Arsenal forward equalised with a neat driven finish from Romain Esse’s cutback, before the turning in Ismaila Sarr’s cross.

Ben Chilwell got Palace’s third in the second half when his free-kick took a wicked deflection off Agbadou’s head.

Jorgen Strand Larsen, who provided the assist for Agbadou’s opener, pulled it back to 3-2 with a header but Eze came off the bench to follow up his FA Cup winner with Palace’s fourth to wrap up the three points.
