Even with a man advantage, Dynamo Kyiv are still yet to have a shot on target. Just as I write that Oleksandr Karavaiev glances a header goalwards and it's straight at Dean Henderson for his first save of the night.

A header into the danger zone but Palace keeper Dean Henderson safely gathers to wipe out the threat. That came after a well-timed sliding challenge from Chris Richards.

Palace fans don't need to see a goal conceded now and face an anxious last 15 minutes. Kyiv substitute Vladislav Blanuta hits the side netting from a tight angle as Dynamo enjoy a good spell against the 10-men of Palace.

A ridiculous yellow card. You're cruising away from home and winning 2-0. Just stay out the tackle.

Two yellows in the space of three minutes for Crystal Palace defender Borna Sosa, and he's off.

Completely needless, the second booking coming for barging into Oleksandr Tymchyk and Palace's perfect day is not so perfect any more.

Palace left wing-back Borna Sosa gets a yellow card for a late one on Shola Ogundana. Rash, but not malicious.

A shame Andriy Yarmolenko couldn't shine tonight. He is a fantastic pro and he's had a very good career.

Dynamo Kyiv have also made a change with former West Ham man Andriy Yarmolenko hooked. He's not too happy either, exchanging some words with someone on the bench and then heading angrily down the tunnel.

Focusing is moving on to the weekend and Yeremy Pino and Daichi Kamada's race is run, with Pino leaving the field with two assists to his name.

Justin Devenny and Ismaila Sarr are the duo to come on for Palace.

It is domination, in terms of possession and chances created.

Palace are enjoying themselves. Adam Wharton, who has been superb so far, releases Eddie Nketiah and he shoots for the far post, but Ruslan Neshcheret in the Kyiv goal just about gets enough on it to deflect it behind for a corner.

Nescheret then does well to claw out the following corner.

That is a cultured finish.

Oleksandr Shovkovskyi is asking for the offside flag for when Daichi Kamada ran in-behind.

What a ball in and a great finish. A beautiful ball.

Again, Adam Wharton with a forward pass and it was drilled into Eddie Nketiah's feet.

It was a lovely reverse finish, but he has not worked hard enough to be onside.

That must have been tight.

Eddie Nketiah has the ball in the net from Adam Wharton's finely-weighted through ball. The assistant says offside, but it's really close. To VAR we go, but the decision goes with Dynamo Kyiv.

Millimeters away from 0-2.

A cutback from Daniel Munoz drops for Yeremy Pino, but he goes for position over power and in the end it a routine save for Ruslan Neshcheret.

At the other end, Mykola Shaparenko fizzes a low cross across the face of goal with no-one one the end of it just to give Palace a bit of a warning that this one's not done just yet.

Will Hughes is substituted and doesn't look happy, maybe he has picked up a slight injury and he walks off to be replaced by Jefferson Lerma.

Oliver Glasner will be telling the boys exactly the same to continue the momentum, and to get those crosses into the box like they had done in the second half. I am sure there will be a few more opportunities for Crystal Palace.
