West Ham 1-2 Crystal Palace
by Paul Donovan
at London Stadium
THIS was a game where West Ham were made to pay by a robust Crystal Palace team for wasting so many chances.
If the home side had been more clinical, Palace would have been dead and buried by the fourth quarter.
Instead, the missed chances meant the South Londoners got back into the game and finished up taking all the points back across the river.
