Match of the Day at Selhurst Park

Game has been punctured by injuries so far, which probably suits Palace.

Gabriel Jesus was inconsolable as he left the field. He was sobbing all the way along the touchline as he made his way to the tunnel. There was a sympathetic tap of the head from Pep too.

He turned away to celebrate!

Sub Sergio Aguero's shot from just outside the area comes off a Palace player, loops up in the air and comes off the woodwork.

The Argentine thought he'd scored.

Unlike Newcastle t'other night, Palace are both defending deep and pushing up in numbers.

Flexible. It's causing City problems.

James Tomkins is lucky not to score an own goal!

A ball from the right inadvertently comes off the boot of the defender but trickles into the hands of his keeper Wayne Hennessey.

Relief inside the Park.

Jesus is tears as he comes off - hopefully for him the moonboot doesn't have to make a reappearance.

Aguero is on.

Gabriel Jesus turns on the edge of the area and strikes a low shot that fails to trouble Hennessey.

The Brazilian has now gone down - it's that earlier knock that has reared its ugly head.

Leroy Sane takes the clipped free-kick on the right but it's eventually collected by keeper Wayne Hennessey.

Martin Kelly replaces the unfortunate Dann who is carried off.

Now back to that free-kick.

Nokeroe: City are on the ropes here. Get in there Palace!

Kesis: Crystal Palace please come to the rescue of this league or else we may as well crown Man City champions.

Scott Dann takes out City playmaker Kevin de Bruyne as he charged towards goal - that wouldn't have been accepted in either rugby code.

The defender appears to have come off the worse. The stretcher is on.

It's a free-kick to City about 20 yards out.

Crystal Palace are getting after Man City here, this is the highest I've seen Yohan Cabaye start a game, he's way ahead of his midfield partners. It's certainly not a negative start from Palace - they're really taking the game to City at the moment.

Gabriel Jesus appears to have shaken off that earlier knock.

We march on.

What a great start for the home side.

Patrick van Aanholt's 20-year shot, which resulted from the free-kick, comes off the back of a City player and flies past Ederson's left-hand post.

Crystal Palace 0-0 Man City

That looked painful for Gabriel Jesus.

The striker appears to almost do the splits in trying to chase the ball.

He goes off the field for treatment and Palace have a free-kick on the right.

Wayne Hennessey's pumps the ball upfield.

Christian Benteke gives chase with Eliaquim Mangala shepherding.

However, Ederson comes out at the same time - his attempted clearance strikes his own player, but luckily for City Benteke's shot is blocked.

Well that was wasted.

A short corner is played to Yohan Cabaye whose effort at an in-swinging cross fails miserably.

Corner to Palace!!!!!!!!!!

Wilfried Zaha is Palace's key man today.

He attempts to use his pace to burst away from his markers in the middle of the pitch but he loses control of the ball.

Only needs one slip.

There is a cheer from the crowd because the floodlights have been switched on.

It's the small things.
