Christian Benteke said he was “ready” to come on and make an impact yesterday, and boy was he right.
“That is what all coaches and managers expect of the players,” Roy Hodgson said after the game. “We have a squad and we can only pick 11 – the only answer to that is to make certain that when you get your chance, you take your chance.
“All too often players would prefer to feel sorry for themselves, rather than do what Christian did tonight.
“That’s how it should be.”
No player has scored more stoppage time goals in Premier League history than Benteke – but who are some of Palace’s other super subs?
