Jack Grealish dedicated his first Everton goal to the Toffees supporters after the Manchester City loanee netted the winner in their dramatic 2-1 victory over Crystal Palace. 

Grealish sealed the win in the third minute of second half stoppage time, with David Moyes' team coming from a goal behind to preserve their unbeaten start to life at Hill Dickinson Stadium.

Daniel Munoz had opened the scoring for Palace in the 37th minute, but Everton hit back late in the second half through Iliman Ndiaye, who slotted home from the penalty spot. 

Grealish, who missed out on Thomas Tuchel's latest England squad earlier this week, continued his fine start in Everton blue by striking the decisive blow. Timed at 92 minutes and 21 seconds, his finish was the Toffees' latest home Premier League winning goal since March 2022 against Newcastle United (98:20).

"The first half was terrible, it was easily the worst we've played this season. But the second half, I thought we were brilliant," Grealish said to Sky Sports.

"They were so difficult to play against, and they are so many games unbeaten at the moment, so good win in the end.

"As a winger, I have one goal and four assists in the Premier League this season. So, that's what I want to do.

"It was brilliant to score here, and that goal goes to all the Evertonians."

Everton have now won just three of their last 31 home Premier League matches when they've conceded first, but all three have come against Palace, having beaten them 3-2 in May 2022 and 2-1 in September 2024. 

Grealish has now scored twice in 14 Premier League appearances against Palace. This goal is also his first of the current season, and his first league goal since April against Leicester City.

After picking up the Man of the Match award for his display, Grealish was quick to praise his opponent Adam Wharton, who had also missed out on an England call-up.

The Palace midfielder ranked joint-highest for total crosses (six), and highest for fouls won (three) of any other Eagles player. 

"It was difficult to do that today against such a good team. They have unbelievable players," Grealish added. 

"I think Adam Wharton today. I see the Man of the Match award there, and I think it's coming to me, but I think that should have gone to Adam Wharton.

"In my opinion, he was the best player on the pitch today."
