Chelsea vs Crystal Palace LIVE: Premier League result and final score after late Noni Madueke penalty

Chelsea 2-1 Crystal Palace: Madueke’s 89th minute penalty gave Mauricio Pochettino some relief after the Blues looked to be heading for a familiar result

Pochettino on European Super League

An 89th-minute penalty from substitute Noni Madueke earned Chelsea a hard-fought 2-1 home victory over Crystal Palace in the Premier League London derby on Wednesday.

Madueke was brought down by Eberechi Eze and, after waving play on, referee Michael Salisbury was called by VAR to the screen where he signalled a foul.

Palace’s Michael Olise had shown fine skill when unmarked at the far post he chested down Jordan Ayew’s pass and finished deftly past Djordje Petrovic in first-half stoppage time.

The goal cancelled out a 13th-minute strike from Chelsea forward Mykhailo Mudryk who turned in a low cross from Malo Gusto.

JUST OVER! Mateta comes close again, as a looping ball is flicked on by Richards' header inside the box and lands at his feet. However, he steers the ball over the crossbar from close range, and Chelsea breathe another sigh of relief! Palace are building some momentum now!

SAVE! Mateta picks up the ball on the right flank, then beats two Chelsea defenders far too easily despite his lack of express pace. Taking his chance to shoot low and hard from a tight angle, the Palace striker forces Petrovic to tip the ball behind at his near post!

Eze steps up to the free-kick won by Olise, but his dipping effort from a central position is sent flashing past the left-hand post without seriously troubling Petrovic.

Mitchell gifts the ball to Maatsen in midfield, almost obliging Lerma to commit a foul to cover the danger. Fortunately for the Crystal Palace full-back, nothing comes of the subsequent set-piece.

After a brief pause in proceedings for both Gusto and Andersen to receive treatment - the latter having picked up a knock in an aerial challenge - the game resumes, with the two players back in their positions.

Eze twice leaves Chelsea's defence scrambling to clear the ball, as he weaves some magic on the left side of the Blues' area before sending in a couple of dangerous deliveries. Finally, Maatsen hammers the ball clear.

Chelsea have now conceded 59 Premier League goals in 2023 - the most league goals they've shipped in a single year since 1991. Meanwhile, Olise has now had a hand in 10 goals during his last 15 top-flight starts. Perhaps, given their hosts' defensive woes, Palace's losing streak against the Blues can finally end today?
