Evann Guessand’s last-gasp effort enough as Crystal Palace defeat 10-man Wolves

Evann Guessand scored a last-gasp winner as Crystal Palace secured a 1-0 Premier League victory over 10-man Wolves at Selhurst Park to ease the pressure on manager Oliver Glasner.
Palace came into the contest having won just one of their previous 15 matches across all competitions and avoided falling to a first-half deficit when captain Dean Henderson saved Tolu Arokodare’s 43rd-minute penalty.
Wolves went down to 10 men in the 61st minute when Ladislav Krejci was sent off following a second yellow card, moments after he was first booked.
Guessand broke the deadlock on the stroke of normal time with his first goal in a Palace shirt, lifting a sour mood in south London that was compounded by Thursday night’s disappointing Conference League draw at Zrinjski Mostar.
