Andy Johnson
Palace's 4th round FA Cup tie against Preston North End ended in a 1-1 draw.
Andrew Johnson opened the scoring for Palace on 8 minutes. Hesitation in the Preston defence allowed the England striker to pounce on a pass from Mikele Leigertwood, and fire past ex-Palace keeper Carlo Nash.
Preston equalised on 27 minutes through Brian O'Neil's looping header from a cross by Graham Alexander.
The result means that Palace will now play Preston at home in a replay. The Eagles also play Preston next Tuesday in the league.
