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.

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace

Stunned by a last-gasp leveller, Chelsea's young side traipse down the tunnel with no advantage gained from a first-half showing of some promise. Having suffered without the ball for long spells, Crystal Palace seemed set to trail at the break, as the lively Mudryk struck their hosts' opener early on; however, the Eagles produced a moment of magic when Ayew and Olise combined in stoppage time. That leaves this London derby finely balanced at the interval, with everything to play for during the second half.

Crystal Palace are looking a little lost as the first half reaches its conclusion, they've faded out of contention after starting well enough. Still, they only trail by one.

Gallagher curls in a high free-kick from just inside Palace's half, and his delivery is just too strong for Disasi to bring down and either head towards goal or nod it on for one of several team-mates gathered in the area.

Gusto's impressive display continues, as the French full-back steals the ball from Ayew deep inside his own half, then is involved in a quick-counter attack up the other end.

This game is becoming quite comfortable for Chelsea to dictate, as Palace sit off a little. Approaching half-time, Pochettino will be by far the happier manager.

A lovely switch of direction by Olise opens up a yard or two of space by the right touchline, but Lerma just mistimes his run and is immediately flagged for offside. It's been a fairly quiet shift for Petrovic so far.

Following a sweeping switch of play from left to right, a swift passing move sees Maatsen advance towards the area and have a shot partly blocked behind. Chelsea are increasingly dangerous now - having Nkunku to play off has apparently lightened the burden on their front men.
