Everton stole the headlines on Thursday coming from behind to beat Crystal Palace as they secured their Premier League status.
However, in the process Crystal Palace registered an unwanted record after they lost a game for the first time after Jordan Ayew scored.

The Ghanaian striker bundled the ball over the line to give the Eagles a comfortable 2-0 lead at half time. But a spirited second half performance saw the Toffees turn it around to win 3-2.
Prior to the game, Jordan Ayew had scored in 14 different games for Crystal Palace. 11 of those games ended in victories whilst the other 3 finished in stalemates.
Jordan Ayew signed a three-year deal with Crystal Palace in July 2019 after spending the season before on loan the Selhurst Park.
The 30-year-old striker's contract expires this summer with numerous reports suggesting interest from Turkey.
