Neal Maupay scored a dramatic last-minute equaliser to salvage an unlikely point for Brighton at Crystal Palace in a feisty 1-1 draw.

After Chelsea and Liverpool both failed to win at the weekend, a win for Graham Potter’s team would have lifted them to the summit but a Wilfried Zaha penalty on the stroke of half-time looked to have flattened them.

It was Palace who played with the required punch and aggression, summed up by Conor Gallagher’s determined burst that won the penalty after a lazy challenge from Leandro Trossard.

Zaha – on his 400th Palace appearance – converted from 12 yards, netting his eighth goal against the Seagulls
