FT: Crystal Palace 4-0 Lech Poznan
A funny game really - you don't have to understand the graphic below really to see how much share of the game Lech (in yellow) had.
The Polish side had more shots than Palace (17-16) and the same amount on target (six).

Image source, Getty ImagesCrystal Palace striker Jorgen Strand Larsen told TNT Sports: "When you miss two [penalties] in a row you have to smack it in. It was a risky one, it was going a bit higher than I expected. I enjoyed it.
"Yeremy is my brother, maybe he deserved to take it but I needed one after missing two. We all just want to show ourselves to the fans.
"When it works it works really well. We could have won this game by more. We had Sunday's game in the back of our minds."

"From -17 to Europe" reads a flag in the away end.

Bournemouth are holding on for now.
Eddie Nketiah (89 mins)

On the turnover [Bournemouth's midfield] is far too open. They've got to realise there are only five or ten minutes left and they have to see it out if they want to win.
Crystal Palace 3-0 Lech Poznan
Radoslaw Murawski barges over a Palace player and gets a yellow card. The ref thinks for a second and realises he's already booked this geezer before so it's a red card. Lech will end with 10 men.

Five minutes to go and Bournemouth are well and truly on the ropes.
