U21s report: Palace seal convincing victory over Villa to return to winning ways - News
Crystal Palace Under-21s returned to winning ways with a comfortable 2-0 victory away at Aston Villa on Friday evening (31st October, 19:00 GMT) in Premier League 2 Division One. The young Eagles dominated much of the first half, and George King broke the deadlock by expertly redirecting Benji Casey's volley into the back of the net with an instinctive flicked header. We carried that momentum into the second half, and on 75 minutes Zach Marsh sealed the win, calmly slotting the ball into the far corner one-on-one with the keeper – his seventh goal in as many games. The clean sheet was our first in seven matches and lifts us into the top 10 in PL2.
