Ghana midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp scored late to salvage a point for Crystal Palace in their Premier League clash with Fulham at Craven Cottage.

Schlupp, who replaced compatriot Jordan Ayew with 14 minutes remaining fired home with three minutes left as the Eagles returned to Selhurst with a valuable point.

Rodrygo Muniz gave Fulham the lead seven minutes after the break after connecting to a Timothy Castagne cross.

Palace had their chances with a couple falling to the in-form Jean Philippe Mateta.

Schlupp has struggled with injuries this season but has now netted two goals in 27 matches for the South London club this season.

The former Leicester City forward has been a key figure at Selhurst Park since moving to London in 2017.
