John had the confidence to go with it. I backed him. I still stand by him. He'll learn and go again.

Far too easy. Andros Townsend points to where he's putting the ball before backheeling it to Joel Ward down the right.

He lifts a deep cross in and Christian Benteke challenges it to win a corner.

The corner is scooped away by Chris Basham.

Christian Benteke has scored more Premier League goals this season (7) than he managed in his previous three combined (6).

His goal was Palace's earliest Premier League goal since Nov 2017 against Everton (McArthur, 51 seconds).

And it's his 100th Premier League start for Palace today. Lovely!

Andros Townsend's corner isn't great but Palace have possession in their own half moments later.

Sheffield United have barely had a touch yet.

Palace look up for this. Wilfried Zaha goes for a run down the left and wins a corner off Chris Basham.

You wait for a bus etc.

Off we go!

Hat-trick from Aaron Ramsdale.

Here come the players. Looks pretty gloomy in Sheffield United. Hopefully the football isn't gloomy.

"The conclusion is linked to the enthusiasm of the players."

What a line!

Leeds United

Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa, speaking to BBC Sport: "For a while now we hope to play on an equal term with an important opponent. In some ways today we achieved this.

"The conclusion is linked to the enthusiasm of the players. The rebelliousness to try and look like the teams that are better than us.

"He was very combative, unbalancing and confident in his qualities. This allowed him to have such a good performance.

"Every time a professional football team plays, they are obliged to give a performance to those watching and follow them. They are obliged to give their best version possible. We will try for this."

Sheffield United

Sheffield United interim head coach Paul Heckingbottom: "It's the last four games in the Premier League - that's all you need to say about it.

"You have to play for your career. You are always on show and representing yourself as well as your football club."

Tottenham Hotspur

Spurs boss Ryan Mason speaking to BT Sport: "We had moments but we weren't clinical enough at times.

"They started bright but we got back. At 1-1 there was an offside decision and I'm shocked. I don't think it was right. People don't understand momentum in football and how those decisions can affect you.

"I've seen it back. My first look, second look and 10th look tell me that it's not offside. At 1-1 it's a big moment. In my opinion they got that one wrong.

"Leeds know what they're doing, they play a certain way and it took us a while to get into the game.

"In the second half we were the better team. The moments we had, you have to take them in these games.

"Today was a massive game for us, to lose it hurts. It's difficult to win in the Premier League but we've got to have our full attention on next week now."

Roy got the memo!

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson speaking to Sky Sports: "We haven't talked about that [reaching safety] for a long time. We have tried to take each game as it comes.

"If we can continue to marry the tactical discipline we have shown in games then I'm hoping we can give Sheffield United a game to remember."
