Veteran Julian Speroni stars on his first start this season
Crystal Palace fans would have been glad to see 36-year old Julian Speroni’s name on the team-sheet – his first appearance this season following a long injury layoff. The Argentine – who has been at Selhurst Park since 2004 – was absolutely phenomenal, making around 10 saves to keep the score down for the Eagles.
His double save to deny Rashford and Jesse Lingard was a highlight and suggestive of the fact that he still has a few years left ahead of him. The first-choice keeper Wayne Hennessey will be sweating over his place thanks to this impressive display by Speroni.
