Despite falling behind early in the first half against Arsenal thanks to a Pierre Emerick Aubameyang strike, Crystal Palace, led by Gunners legend Patrick Viera, have dragged themselves level.

With the game’s second half in its infancy, Eagles striker Christian Benteke found him presented with a golden opportunity to level proceedings and the striker did not disappoint.

Having forced his way through on goal, the commanding forward then found himself facing goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale.
