That is an underwhelming end to Crystal Palace’s Carabao Cup campaign, with a poor second-half performance.
They weathered the storm well in the first half and looked strong. Admittedly, Arsenal’s reinforcements made it difficult — but Palace barely had a look in, despite that late Eddie Nketiah consolation goal.
On the plus side, they have scored in nine of their last 10 games in all competitions, with seven in their last three.
A bit flat tonight in the away end despite the 6,000 Palace fans.
