Palace and Blackpool share spoils

December 8 2012

Crystal Palace conceded a late equaliser to draw 2-2 at home to Blackpool.

Blackpool scored a deserved opening goal in the 37th minute after making all the early running. Pool defender Alex Baptiste put through Thomas Ince whose dangerous delivery found Nathan Delfouneso at the far post to head home.

Palace were on terms seven minutes after the break when Yannick Bolasie sent over Wilfried Zaha's overhit cross into the box where Owen Garvan nodded in.

And the Eagles took the lead in the 64th minute when Glenn Murray expertly guided Garvan's cross past keeper Michael Gilks for his 18th goal of the season.

But a minute from time, Blackpool grabbed an equaliser from substitute Nouha Dicko who fired past Julian Speroni from close range after a good run and cross from Wes Thomas.
