Palace teammates who faced off on international duty
England’s Nike x Palace pre-match shirt has been restocked in all sizes ahead of the Ghana match.
Walter Benítez reflects on his first year at Palace, recalling his penalty shootout heroics on debut against Millwall and a composed display at AEK Larnaca in the Conference League last 16 as the Eagles chase silverware.
Erling Haaland’s brace and Marcus Holmgren Pedersen’s goal earned Norway a 3-2 win over Senegal. Crystal Palace’s Ismaïla Sarr scored twice for Senegal but could not rescue a point.
Chelsea have registered interest in Crystal Palace centre-back Maxence Lacroix. Palace are understood to value him at around €40m, are under no pressure to sell and would want a successor in place first. The player is keen on Champions League football.
Recalling Palace teammates clashing for their countries: Riihilahti and Kuqi scoring for Finland v Latvia in 2002, and Wales beating Gábor Király’s Hungary 2-0 in 2005 with Carl Fletcher involved.
