December 20 2001
In a scrappy, game played in freezing conditions, Crystal Palace were held to a 1-1 draw at home to Nottingham Forest.
Forest got off to a great start by opening the scoring in just the second minute through Stern John.
Nicky Summerbee skinned Craig Harrison on the left and his far post cross was heaed home by John.
Palace got back into the game and Trevor Benjamin, making his loan debut from Leicester, along with Clinton Morrison had chances blocked.
Morrison got the deserved equaliser in the 37th minute. Jamie Smith's cross to the far post was headed back across the goal by Benjamin for Morrison to finish from close range.
The Eagles should have got an equaliser when former Forest man Dougie Freedman dribbled into the box and saw his low shot saved by the keeper and the ball was eventually charged down and cleared.
