4 conclusions as Arsenal lose to Crystal Palace

#2 Crystal Palace capitalised on their chances

The Eagles were sharp in front of the goal

Arsenal's players were not on form, giving away the ball way too easily and not having the clinical edge anywhere on the pitch, to which Crystal Palace took huge advantage. The Eagles were sharp in front of the goal, as they scored 2 goals through set-pieces and one through a defensive error.

Roy Hodgson's men were up for the fight, as they pressed the side high in the starting minutes. As soon as they got the first goal, they sat back deep to hit on counter attacks, and Zaha often got fouls committed by Arsenal's midfield and defence.

It was an efficient performance from the Eagles, as they created more goalscoring chances than the Gunners. They also had two more shots on target than the home side, which tells us Unai Emery's men were clearly not at their best.
