Bristol City leave it late

Bristol City left it late to defeat Crystal Palace 2-1 at a packed Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon to give City the advantage going into the second leg in Bristol.

Louis Carey had given City the lead with his first goal of the season following a cleverly-taken free-kick by the visitors.

Palace looked as though they had done enough to secure a barely-deserved draw after Ben Watson equalised Louis Carey's opening goal with a well-taken penalty with four minutes remaining; which Carey had given away himself in the 87th minute.

However, David Noble scored a spectular goal late on at Selhurst Park to give Bristol City the advantage late on and to wrap up the victory and give City their first chance of a season in the Premiership in their history.
