Crystal Palace vs West Ham: The Hammers raced out to a 3-0 halftime lead before holding on for dear life and a 3-2 victory over the Eagles at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
Michail Antonio and Manuel Lanzini (times two) got the goals for West Ham, as they appeared set for a comfortable cruise, but Odsonne Edouard and Michael Olise each scored inside the final 10 minutes to set up a frantic finish, which was almost capped off by Jean-Philippe Mateta’s bicycle kick attempt from the edge of the penalty area.
The victory pushes West Ham (34 points) back into 5th place in the Premier League table, above Tottenham (33), who were victorious earlier on Saturday, by one point. West Ham have, however, played two more games than Spurs, as have 4th-place Arsenal (35) above them. Crystal Palace (23 points) hold steady in 11th.

3 things we learned – Crystal Palace vs West Ham
1. Back-to-back blowouts (nearly): After starting the season brilliantly and establishing themselves as top-four contenders once again, West Ham hit a rough patch from mid-November to Boxing Day as they won just one of seven in the Premier League and slipped to 6th in the table. The 4-1 win over Watford midweek raised a few eyebrows, but that was against one of the Premier League’s worst defenses. What would they do against a rigorously drilled side like Crystal Palace? Turns out, much of the same (for a half, at least). Antonio is catching fire once again (more on that in a moment), the defense is tightening was tightening back up for 80 minutes, and David Moyes will be feeling hopeful for what 2022 brings to east London.
2. Woeful Palace performance: It’s rare and odd to see this Crystal Palace side simply not turn up, to offer little or no resistance from the start and feebly accept defeat. The absences of Conor Gallagher and Cheikhou Kouyate (both due to illness and/or COVID-19) are devastating to Patrick Vieira’s plans, and there was little they could do to paper over those cracks on Saturday. West Ham had time in possession to do as they pleased, without the all-action duo buzzing around and breaking up play. They’ll be back and Palace will be better for it, but that makes this woeful display no less eye-opening.
3. All that hard work nearly undone: Palace’s comeback didn’t just start when Edouard scored in the 83rd minute; the Eagles were immediately on the front foot and in control from the start of the second half. West Ham had two shots in the second half, while Palace pushed numbers forward and had 10 of their own. We saw the best and the worst of West Ham over the course of 90 minutes.
Man of the Match: Manuel Lanzini – Got two of Palace’s three goals, should have had an assist and remains the ace up Moyes’ sleeve, should he have a big second half of the season.
Crystal Palace vs West Ham highlights
Michail Antonio pokes Benrahma’s ball past Guaita for 1-0 (goal video)
After a bit of a downturn in production (just one goal and two assists in his last 10 Premier League appearances after six in his first eight this season), Antonio now has two goals and one assist in his last three outings. If he is indeed finding his form again, the top-four race just got a lot more interesting.
Manuel Lanzini dances free to volley home for 2-0 (goal video)
Perhaps the first touch lets Lanzini down here and makes the end product look more skillful than it needed to be, but that doesn’t take away from the fact he still pulled it off and finished like that.
The USMNT got another goal from Ricardo Pepi to secure a 1-0 victory over El Salvador in Orlando on Monday and win Group D of the CONCACAF Nations League, booking their place in this summer’s finals.
Mexico and the USMNT are the first two (of four) sides through to the final round, with Panama and Canada currently in pole position to finish atop their respective groups when they conclude play on Tuesday.
It was a frustratingly slow start by the USMNT on Monday, as El Salvador refused to let the Americas get comfortable or play their game. Long balls over the top of the USMNT defense created a few nervy moments early on, but interim head coach Anthony Hudson’s side looked a completely different side after halftime.
The USMNT’s first real scoring chance came in the 46th minute, when Gio Reyna cut in from the left wing, worked his way past two defenders and fired a shot low and hard toward the near post. The ball smashed the front of the post and the rebound ricocheted back into play, just out of Alejandro Zendejas’ reach atop the six-yard box.
Zendejas went close to opening the scoring just two minutes later, as he audaciously — but necessarily — lobbed the ball over a frazzled Mario Gonzalez in goal, only to pull it just wide of the far post.
The Yanks kept the pressure up as the second half wore on, and eventually got their reward in the 62nd minute. A minute after Pepi came into the game, Weston McKennie found the 20-year-old forward making a dangerous run in behind the Salvadoran defense, but Gonzalez saw it early as well and came out to close down his angles as Pepi jostled with the last defender. Pepi went for the cheeky chip over the ‘keeper, to go with the two goals he scored against Grenada on Friday.
Defenders (8): Sergino Dest (AC Milan), Mark McKenzie (Genk), Tim Ream (Fulham), Bryan Reynolds (Westerlo), Antonee Robinson (Fulham), Miles Robinson (Atlanta United), Joe Scally (Borussia Monchengladbach), Auston Trusty (Birmingham City)
Midfielders (7): Brenden Aaronson (Leeds United), Johnny Cardoso (Internacional), Luca de la Torre (Celta Vigo), Weston McKennie (Leeds United), Yunus Musah (Valencia), Alan Sonora (Juarez), Djordje Mihailovic (AZ Alkmaar)
Forwards (6): Taylor Booth (Utrecht), Daryl Dike (West Bromwich Albion), Ricardo Pepi (Groningen), Christian Pulisic (Chelsea), Gio Reyna (Borussia Dortmund), Alejandro Zendejas (Club America)
