Crystal Palace 2-3 Ipswich Town: Zian Flemming's strike earns Tractor Boys win at Selhurst Park

Ipswich came from behind to secure their first Premier League away win since April 2025 after beating 10-man Crystal Palace 3-2.
Goals from Emersonn and Leif Davis answered Anan Khalaili's opener, before substitute Zian Flemming struck the 90th-minute winner after Jorgen Strand Larsen had pulled the Eagles level.
That goal ended a run of 32 Premier League games - stretching back to December 2001 - in which the Tractor Boys had conceded first and failed to win.

Having beaten Fulham and Middlesbrough in their last two outings, Palace were looking to make it a perfect week - and chances of that happening increased when Anan Khalaili collected Daichi Kamada's square ball, took one touch and struck a sweet shot, which took a slight deflection off Ipswich full-back Davis on its way past Kjell Scherpen.
As the hosts sought out a second, Strand Larsen saw a cracking volley batted away. But, before long, they were pegged back instead.
Davis hit a cross from the left and, seemingly convinced he had been offside when he collected the ball, Palace switched off, which allowed Emersonn to find the net with a header under no pressure.
Ipswich received a major boost when Axel Disasi was shown a straight red card 34 minutes in after catching Jack Clarke on the shin with his studs - and they took advantage by establishing the lead on the stroke of half-time when Davis scored a free header.
Palace started to up the tempo with around 20 minutes to go, with Quiten Timber guilty of passing up two opportunities to equalise, and the noise was deafening when Strand Larsen held off his man to fire into the bottom-left corner and level.
But their efforts were rendered useless in the 90th minute when Flemming reacted quickest when a looping header from Davis came back off the crossbar and stylishly tucked in the winner.
