Eddie Nketiah scored twice as Crystal Palace came from behind to beat Wolves 4-2 in a lively game at Selhurst Park.
The visitors struck first through Emmanuel Agbadou, who headed them in front on 24 minutes. But Palace came roaring back, and the place was bouncing when Nketiah grabbed two quick goals before half-time.
He slotted in the first after a tidy cut-back from Romain Esse, then pounced again five minutes later to steer in Ismaila Sarr’s low cross and send the home fans wild.
The hosts added a third in the second half when Ben Chilwell’s free-kick took a wicked deflection off Agbadou and wrong-footed the keeper.
Vítor Pereira's side gave themselves a lifeline when Jorgen Strand Larsen - who had earlier set up their opener - nodded in to make it 3-2, but substitute Eberechi Eze stepped up once again, coolly finishing to make sure of the points.
That win makes it five unbeaten in the league for Palace, who stay 12th but could still sneak into the top ten. Wolves, meanwhile, remain 14th.
