Guéhi's late show sinks Fulham as Palace go fourth

They may have greeted each other with a giant bear hug before kickoff but Marco Silva must be sick of facing Oliver Glasner.

After enduring two defeats against Crystal Palace here in the space of five weeks earlier in the year, the Fulham manager could only watch in horror as Marc Guéhi’s late header sealed another victory that moved Palace into the top four.Glasner has made no secret of his dissatisfaction with Palace’s transfer business in the summer, having beaten Fulham on their way to winning the FA Cup, and he was without the influential Daniel Munoz for their latest trip to west London. But the Austrian has proven during his 18 months at the helm that he has a habit of finding a way to win.

Palace weathered a Fulham storm after Harry Wilson’s wonder goal had cancelled out Eddie Nketiah’s opener on his first Premier League start of the campaign. It was left to Guéhi, who is likely to leave south London at the end of the season when his contract expires, to seal the victory that will have Palace’s supporters dreaming of what else might be possible under their remarkable manager if he is backed in the January window.
