Palace hold out for draw after Richards' first-half dismissal

The contest rarely found a flow and by the time it concluded referee Sam Barrott had issued nine yellow cards.

Two of those were to Palace defender Chris Richards, who was controversially dismissed late in the first half.

The result took the Cherries on to 49 points, but with their European ambitions fading they will be disappointed not to have capitalised on the man advantage.

Daniel Munoz, who last week extended his stay at Selhurst until 2028, looked to get Palace up and running early on when he sent in a low cross for the sliding Jean-Philippe Mateta.

He could not connect, although the offside flag was raised regardless.
