Crystal Palace hit five goals past Bournemouth in a dramatic 5-3 victory in their final Premier League game of the season.
Palace and Bournemouth entertained the fans in an enthralling encounter which was kick-started by Michy Batshuayi, who scored two in quick succession (24 & 32).
Jack Simpson scored an unfortunate own goal five minutes later before Jefferson Lerma smashed in a screamer on the stroke of half-time (45).
Patrick Van Aanholt slotted home Palace’s fourth in the 65th minute before Bournemouth grabbed another two thanks to strikes from Jordon Ibe (56) and Josh King (73).
But Andros Townsend ensured Palace would finish the season victorious with a neat finish 10 minutes from time.
