Palace 5-0 Villa
Crystal Palace ended the season on a high with a 5-0 thrashing of Aston Villa.
Oliver Glasner's side finished the Premier League campaign equalling their best-ever placing of 10th.
The Eagles, who won six out of their final seven outings, made light work of Villa who had already qualified for the Champions League.
In-form Jean-Philippe Mateta swept Michael Olise’s pass beyond Villa keeper Robin Olsen for the first goal after nine minutes.
Six minutes before the break, the in-form forward put away a low Daniel Munoz centre for number two.
Eberechi Eze got in on the act with a rasping strike from the edge of the box in the 54th minute.
Frenchman Mateta completed his hat-trick in the 63rd minute from Eze's assist to make it 4-0 to the Londoners.
Mateta had an effort ruled out for offside, but fed Eze for his second and Palace's fifth goal in the 69th minute to wrap up an excellent victory.
