Crystal Palace reserves have been crowned champions of the reserve league following a 3-0 win away to Luton Town.

Steve Kember's side got off to a flyer as Tommy Black fired in a free-kick from 25 yards which went into the top left corner, in off the crossbar.

Luton got back into the game and dominated proceedings and halfway through the second period scored twice in two minutes to seal the match.

Gavin Heeroo got the second goal in the 73rd minute, slotting home when put through with a one-on-one with the keeper.

Moments later, substitute Ben Surey's volley was spectactularly saved by the keeper but only as far as Dougie Freedman who headed in from a yard out.

The victory means Palace cannot be caught at the top of the Avon Insurance Combination League and are worthy championship winners.
