Palace lose again
BURNLEY. — Chris Wood’s dream debut for Burnley pushed Frank De Boer to the brink of the sack as Crystal Palace crashed to a 1-0 defeat by Burnley in the English Premier League at Turf Moor yesterday.
New Zealand international Wood marked his maiden appearance for Burnley following his club record £15 million move by firing the winner early in the first half.
The former Leeds striker punished a woeful backpass by Palace’s South Korean winger Lee Chung-Yong. For Palace manager De Boer, his side’s fourth successive defeat could bring an abrupt end to his first season at Selhurst Park.
Palace have yet to score a league goal since Ajax and Inter Milan coach De Boer took charge and reports ahead of this fixture claimed Eagles chairman Steve Parish was already considering sacking the Dutchman. — AFP
