Crystal Palace Wins 2-0 Against West Ham

Jean-Philippe Mateta was instrumental in Crystal Palace's 2-0 victory over West Ham United, scoring both goals to secure the win. Mateta's first goal came from a precise pass by Eberechi Eze, while his second was a penalty resulting from a foul on Eddie Nketiah by West Ham's Lukasz Fabianski. West Ham's day worsened with a red card for Konstantinos Mavropanos after a high boot incident with Mateta. The defeat marks a challenging start for new West Ham manager Graham Potter as his team struggled offensively, failing to register a shot on target. Meanwhile, Palace's win elevates them to 12th place in the Premier League, extending their unbeaten away streak to seven games. West Ham, now in 14th, faces mounting pressure as they navigate a series of upcoming difficult fixtures.
