Crystal Palace secured their second win of the season on Sunday, beating Nottingham Forest 3-1 at Selhurst Park.
Forest were the better side in the first half and took an early lead through Dan Ndoye before missing a number of chances to double their lead through Ndoye again, Liam Delap and Daniel Munoz, with Morgan Gibbs-White rattling the crossbar.
But Daichi Kamada's equaliser gave Selhurst Park a much needed lift shortly before the break before Jefferson Lerma gave the home side the lead on the stroke of half-time.
Forest responded well after the break but found themselves 3-1 behind when Yeremy Pino scored from Jorgen Strand Larsen's saved effort.
