Crystal Palace is facing severe criticism following a disastrous start to their Premier League match against Brighton, where they conceded three goals within the first 10 minutes. The team, with Anan Khalaily starting, appeared overwhelmed by Brighton's dynamic play.
British media outlets have lambasted the London club's defensive performance. Sky Sports noted that while the first two goals were unusual, the third exemplified a recurring issue throughout the season, highlighting Palace's vulnerability. Former footballer and BBC pundit Efan Ekoku described the third goal, stating, "Unbelievable. Palace is simply falling apart and in the center of the pitch shows inferiority in speed, movement, and passing quality." He added that the goalkeeper was helpless as the ball was sent in.
