Aaron Connolly (For Welbeck 76’): N/R - The forward came on in search of a late equaliser but did little to impact the result towards the end. Getty
CRYSTAL PALACE RATINGS: Vicente Guaita: 4 - The goalkeeper was at fault for the late Brighton equaliser with a poor free-kick before being caught off his line for a chip over his head. AFP
Joel Ward: 6 - The right-back defended his flank well and didn’t give the opposition much going forward. He struggled slightly once Cucurella pushed higher up the pitch. Getty
Joachim Andersen: 7 - Looked dominant at the back, keeping the Brighton forwards quiet when the ball was sent up the pitch. On the ball, he was key in his side circulating possession. Reuters
Marc Guehi: 6 - The centre-back had a composed performance at the back, rarely in danger and passing out well when building from the back. Getty
Tyrick Mitchell: 6 - The 22-year-old defended well when required but looked best when combining with Zaha on the left to cause problems for the Brighton defenders. Reuters
Conor Gallagher: 8 - The Chelsea loanee looked the most lively of the midfield trio, snapping at Brighton heels on the press and causing issues on the ball. He won the penalty that gave Palace the lead with a great move into the box. Reuters
Luka Milivojevic: 6 - The Palace captain kept his side ticking in the centre of the park and worked hard defensively when called upon. Getty
James McArthur: 6 - McArthur played an important role in possession, passing accurately to help keep his side ticking throughout the game. Getty
Jordan Ayew: 5 - The winger ran the channels well and was neat on the ball but failed to ask many questions of the Brighton backline. His big chance in the second half was a one-on-one with the goalkeeper that he put wide. Reuters
Odsonne Edouard: 6 - Got little chance to show his quality in the box, but played well anyhow, offering himself short or running behind whilst looking neat in some of his passing. AFP
Wilfried Zaha: 7 - The Palace talisman looked to make things happen throughout and managed to convert a penalty to give his side the lead in the first half. Getty
SUBS: Christian Benteke (For Edouard 71’): 6 - Did little to offer an outlet towards the end of the game but should have registered an assist as he fed through Ayew, who missed. AP
Chiekhou Kouyate (For Milivojevic 71’): 6 - Came on to add legs in the midfield and to stifle Brighton near the end. He won all his duels. Reuters
Jeff Schlupp (For Ayew 86’): N/R - Came on to try and see out the game, unable to get himself involved as it drifted. Reuters
BRIGHTON RATINGS: Robert Sanchez: 6 - The shot stopper could do little to stop the Zaha penalty. He was key in his side’s build-up but was prone to an occasional miscued pass. Getty
Dan Burn: 6 - Dominated at the back, covering Cucurella well and showing aggression at times to step into midfield when required but was sacrificed at half time in a change of shape. Reuters
Lewis Dunk: 6 - The Brighton captain had little to do, rarely called into action and denying any chances centrally. He also passed well from the back. Reuters
Shane Duffy: 7 - Despite his side conceding, Duffy had a dominating performance from the back. He won every duel thrown his way and denied the Palace attack anything. Getty
Marc Cucurella: 5 - The left wing-back continually struggled, giving away the ball in dangerous areas and getting beaten too often on his side, most notably losing Gallagher for the penalty. He looked more dangerous once he pushed much higher in the second half. Getty
Adam Lallana: 6 - Struggled in the first half with a midfield that looked overrun and picked up a soft yellow card. However, he looked to pull the strings in the second half as they tried to find a way back in. Getty
Pascal Gross: 6 - The 30-year-old covered a lot of ground and drove his side forward from midfield during the game but he failed to create many chances in the final third. AP
Joel Veltman: 7 - Consistently put under pressure by Zaha down his flank but defended well to deny the winger chances in the box from open play. Getty
Leandro Trossard: 4 - The forward grew into the game as it went on, however his mistake in giving away a penalty at the end of the first half with a clumsy foul in the box. Getty
Neal Maupay: 7 - Had few chances, but made it count in the final minute with a composed finish to chip Guaita. Looked to cause problems with his presence but wasn’t always able. Getty
Danny Welbeck: 6 - The 30-year-old looked a threat behind the Palace backline when his side went more direct. He had one opportunity in the penalty area that was met with a good save by Guaita. Getty
SUBS: Steven Alzate (For Burn 46’): 6 - Came on to change the balance, adding another midfield presence that they lacked in the first half. Made the occasional mistake but had a positive influence before getting injured. Getty
Jakub Moder (For Alzate 65’): 5 - The midfielder came on for the injured Alzate and struggled to play accurate passes as the game drifted towards the end. Getty
