The Eagles not only became the last unbeaten side in this season’s Premier League, they also matched the club’s longest-ever unbeaten streak across all competitions—18 games—at Selhurst Park in dramatic fashion.
After Ismaila Sarr’s early strike put Palace ahead, Federico Chiesa’s late goal for the Reds threatened to snatch a draw but the Englishman delivered a clinical finish that sent Selhurst Park into ecstatic celebration.
"It was flicked on, and I just tried to stay calm and focus on my first touch,” Nketiah told the media.
“I trust myself with both feet and it was a nice finish with my left foot, with a bit of a nervous wait for VAR!
"It is nothing less than the boys deserved. We never give up, we never stop believing.
"That's what our fans are known for and shows the togetherness of the group. We always keep believing. There was still time to play. The Manager said to stay calm and you will get another situation, and thankfully we did.
"There aren't many teams who can create that many chances against Liverpool so it was a thoroughly deserved three points.”
