English-born Ghanaian forward Eddie Nketiah scored his second goal in his last two games for Crystal Palace in their FA Cup game against Millwall.
The Eagles hosted the Championship side in the fifth round of the cup competition on Saturday, March 1.
In the end, the Premier League side advanced with a 3-1 scoreline at Selhurst Park.
Nketiah came on in the 15th minute, replacing Jean-Philippe Mateta, who had to come off after a nasty injury leading to the sending off of the Millwall goalkeeper.
A Japhet Tanganga own goal gave Palace the lead in the 33rd minute.
Daniel Munoz doubled the lead seven minutes later before the away side reduced the deficit before the break through Wes Harding.
The second half seemed very quiet until nine minutes away from full time when Nketiah headed home to restore Palace's two-goal lead.
The former Arsenal man connected with Chris Richards' header and beat the goalkeeper to make it 3-1.
With his goal against Millwall, Nketiah has now scored four goals in 24 appearances for Palace.
