Freedman saves day

Super-sub Dougie Freedman rescued a point for Palace in a 1-1 draw at Wolves.

Freedman came off the bench to snatch a hard-earned point for the Eagles with an 85th-minute strike.

Iain Turner's huge goal kick was flicked on by sub Shefki Kuqi and Freedman blasted the volley past Matt Murray.

Wolves had taken the lead in the 62nd minute when Lewis Gobern's free-kick on the left missed everyone in the box and flew into the back of the net.

An ultra-negative Palace did not look like they were going to score if they played all night.

Freedman, who came on for Clinton Morrison in the 72nd minute, had their best chance when he cut in from the right but blazed over with just Murray to beat on 83.

But he made ammends with a superb volley two minutes later with the type of wonder goal we have come to expect from the Palace hero.
