Kevin Campbell found himself involved in all four goals during a fine display by the 21-year-old attacker. He got the scoring started on 18 minutes when he saw a shot slip under Perry Sutcliffe to find the net, and then turned provider in the second half when his fine dribble and cross was powered home by the head of Alan Smith on 55 minutes.<\/p>\n
Two minutes later Michael Thomas played a neat one-two with Campbell to add a third, with the striker completing his brace after some superb work by Paul Merson. Mark Bright\u2019s late effort was a mere consolation for the Eagles.<\/p>\n
February 25, 1995<\/strong> Chris Kiwomya netted two of his three Gunners goals in this game to help seal victory against Palace in south London. He and Merson did the damage, with the midfielder netting the opening goal on 24 minutes after a cute John Jensen free-kick slipped him in.<\/p>\n Kiwomya bagged his first of the afternoon on 39 minutes when a little flick by Merson allowed him the chance to smash the ball past Nigel Martyn, and then 13 minutes from time more Merson magic saw the striker dink the ball over the goalkeeper to double his tally and create his Arsenal highlight.<\/p>\n December 28, 2017<\/strong> Two goals from Alexis Sanchez in six second-half minutes ultimately saw us edge out Palace in this five-goal thriller, which was kickstarted when Shkodran Mustafi tucked in a saved Alexandre Lacazette attempt on 25 minutes, but Andros Townsend would equalise not long after the restart.<\/p>\n However that prompted Sanchez to shine, and he thrashed the ball home after a Lacazette knock-down on 62 minutes, before brilliantly collecting a Jack Wilshere pass and slipping the ball past Julian Speroni. James Tomkins\u2019 header made for a nervy ending, but Arsene Wenger\u2019s team held on.<\/p>\n May 19, 2021<\/strong> Having been winless in five previous meetings with the Eagles, it looked as though that unwanted record was going to be extended after Christian Benteke cancelled out Nicolas Pepe\u2019s opener and the game headed to a 1-1 conclusion.<\/p>\n However, a wonderful pass by Martin Odegaard allowed Gabriel Martinelli to scramble the ball home to put us in front in stoppage-time, before Pepe cut inside from the right flank to tuck home and ensure Mikel Arteta\u2019s team snatched all the points.<\/p>\n August 5, 2022<\/strong> We got last season off to the perfect start by winning at Selhurst Park under the Friday night lights to kick the Premier League campaign off. Just 20 minutes had elapsed when debutant Oleksandr Zinchenko nodded a corner towards Martinelli to head us into the lead, who made up for missing a golden chance earlier in the contest.<\/p>\n Some key saves from Aaron Ramsdale from Odsonne Edouard and Eberechi Eze would keep us in front, and they proved vital as the win was wrapped up five minutes from the end when Bukayo Saka\u2019s dangerous cross was clipped into his own net by Marc Guehi to see us return across the capital with all three points.<\/p>\n December 21, 2024<\/strong> After netting a hat-trick against the Eagles in the League Cup three days earlier, Gabriel Jesus bagged two more in this emphatic league victory. The Brazilian wasted no time in continuing to haunt Palace by tucking home after six minutes, and while Ismaila Sarr swiftly equalised, Jesus curled into the top corner on 15 minutes to continue a rip-roaring start.<\/p>\n He was denied a hat-trick by a post on 38 minutes but Kai Havertz was on hand to tap in the rebound, before Martinelli continued the Brazilian theme when he diverted in a Declan Rice shot. Our midfielder would get on the scoresheet with six minutes to play when he carressed the ball into the bottom corner to wrap up a decisive victory. <\/p>\n Watch more memorable matches and moments at Selhurst Park <\/em>in our playlist<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Copyright 2026 The Arsenal Football Club Limited.
