Crystal Palace Earns First Premier League Win

Crystal Palace secured their first Premier League victory of the season with a 1-0 win over Tottenham Hotspur, thanks to a goal from Jean-Philippe Mateta in the 31st minute. The victory relieved pressure on manager Oliver Glasner, who faced criticism following a winless start to the campaign. Tottenham struggled to adapt to Palace's pressing game and had difficulty creating scoring opportunities, with only a few close attempts. This loss marked Spurs' third away defeat of the season, continuing a disappointing trend of just three wins from their last 15 away league games. The match ended Palace's eight-game winless streak and moved them out of the relegation zone, while Spurs remained in eighth place, four points behind fourth-placed Chelsea. The result highlights Palace's potential return to form after a troubling start to the season.
