"Half an hour has already gone in this game. 30 minutes? The time's just flown by!"

Possession and territory belongs to Chelsea, but Palace are playing their part in an entertaining game.

They're managing to get behind the Chelsea back four on a number of occasions and a long ball to Yannick Bolasie has Branislav Ivanovic backpedalling, with the Chelsea defender conceding a throw-in, much to his disappointment.

Nemanja Matic has yet to find his shooting boots. The Serb takes aim from distance, but his effort is very very high and very very wide.

Oof! Damien Delaney brings down Loic Remy and this time referee Craig Pawson does show a yellow card. Delaney waves his finger at the official, as you'd expect.

A series of clumsy incidents. Mile Jedinak brings down Eden Hazard in the box, but the referee waves play on.

At the other end of the pitch, captain John Terry makes contact with Fraizer Campbell, sending the striker tumbling to the turf. Both defenders get away with their dodgy interpretations of defending.

Edward Sanders:, external Atmosphere at this Crystal Palace v Chelsea game is stunning. Best away fans v best home fans?

Excellent play by James McArthur as the midfielder picks out Yannick Bolasie on the left. Another moment of concern for the Chelsea defence... the Congolese international curls a cross-shot across the goal but Thibaut Courtois' outstretched hand saves the day for his team.

Oscar gets the better of Martin Kelly down the left, but the former Liverpool defender somehow manages to backtrack and catches up with the Brazilian, who tumbles before he even reaches the box.

Chelsea dominant, but unable to relax because of the pace Fraizer Campbell possesses.

"What a magnificent game of football so far. So much action in either goal mouth, so end-to-end. I've seen many games this season when Chelsea have taken the lead, and you can tell the opposition don't think they can get back in the game. But that's not the case today with this Palace performance."

Cesc Fabregas with a stray pass in the middle of the pitch. Yep, the Spaniard dithering in the centre circle. Incredible. It matters little, though, as the ball eventually finds its way to a yellow shirt and the visitors are camped in opposition territory.

Cesc Fabregas picks out Eden Hazard, whose driving shot is deflected from a corner. Fabregas with a canny corner, low and across goal, and the Palace defence needs to be alert to boot it clear.

Neil Warnock is shouting something from the touchline, perhaps unhappy that Frazier Campbell has been penalised for a rash-looking tackle.

Chelsea regain possession and Willian unleashes a dangerous-looking shot from distance which fails to hit the target.

Fraizer Campbell is again Palace's danger man. The former Cardiff striker weaves his way into the box, a shuffle of the hips and he's away from Gary Cahill - but he drags the shot across goal. Maybe he could have picked out a team-mate.

"I worry about Chelsea defensively when someone with raw pace gets at them. Twice already Fraizer Campbell has got in behind them. It's all about what line the defence holds and whether keeper Thibaut Courtois narrows that gap."

Mr Hammond:, external Exactly like Oscar did against Stoke City in the FA Cup at Stamford Bridge.

Crystal Palace opt for the long ball and it nearly pays off as Gary Cahill dithers, allows the ball to bounce and the lurking Fraizer Campbell sneaks in behind him. Luckily for the England defender, Campbell's lob lands on the roof of the net.

Chelsea continue to monopolise possession. Oscar dictating play and he tries to create an overlap with the ever-willing Branislav Ivanovic, but Julian Speroni comes off his line to steal the ball.

"Jose Mourinho is secure in the knowledge that in his squad are solutions to any problems that might occur. He knows who he's got up front, and we all know Loic Remy can play the way that Chelsea play. When he's come on he's done well, so why worry about Remy stepping in for Diego Costa? I'm sure he'll be fine."

"Wow. Wow! That was an incredible free-kick, up and over the wall and into the far side netting. The ball moves a yard in the air and the keeper Speroni just can't get across. It's all about the pace and the whip on that ball. That arrowed diagonally into the far corner, and it's a wonderful, wonderful goal."

A fabulous free-kick by the Brazilian. Oscar steps up as the visitors are awarded a free-kick on the edge of the box, to the right of goal, and he brilliantly negotiates the wall and finds the top-left corner for his third goal of the season.
