Crystal Palace 4 - 0 Lech Poznań

A magical European night in SE25 saw Crystal Palace storm to their largest victory on the continental stage, blowing away Polish champions Lech Poznań in an emphatic 4-0 rout to kick off their UEFA Europa League league phase. Pierre Sage's men flew out of the traps and had the contest wrapped up before the break, capitalizing on early defensive gifts through Yéremy Pino's cool finish, Chris Richards powering home an Adam Wharton corner, and Jørgen Strand Larsen dispatching a clinical penalty. The Eagles dictated the tempo with complete authority throughout, and after the visitors were reduced to 10 men, substitute Eddie Nketiah put the exclamation mark on a sensational, professional performance that lit up Selhurst Park and laid down a massive marker in Europe.
