Crystal Palace reserves snatched a dramatic last-gasp 3-2 win at home to Leyton Orient.

Palace got their noses in front after 35 minutes when Ashley Robinson's cross was converted by Jamie Smith.

Orient levelled on 52 minutes with a shot from striker Efi Echanomoi that flew past Scott Flinders.

And three minutes later, they went ahead as Jack Page stormed down the middle and fired past Flinders.

But Ryan Hall pegged the scores back just past the hour mark with a fierce drive from 20 yards that nestled into the bottom corner.

It was from Hall's corner in the 89th minute that gave Palace victory when Charlie Sheringham headed home from close range.

Palace: Flinders, Cline, Wiggins (Adelkun 43), Bingham, Edwards, Carolan, Robinson (Cadogan 83), Smith, Sheringham, Kudjojdi (Scannell 74), Hall.

Not used: Wilkinson, Abnett.
