Everything about his attempt looked perfect though the angle of his contact was just out as the ball hit the inside of the post and bounced back to a relieved Johnstone.<\/p>\n<p>Palace then suffered yet another setback when Schlupp fell to the turf and had to come off.<\/p>\n<p>It was the last thing they needed though his replacement Jesurun Rak-Sakyi helped turn the game back Palace&#8217;s way and he emerged as their biggest threat.<\/p>\n<p>The young winger lifted the crowd with a moment of trickery that sent Toffolo tumbling to the ground and, sensing the problems he was posing with his trickery and directness, Palace fed him the ball more and more as the half drew to a close.<\/p>\n<p>Rak-Sakyi also forced Toffolo into a desperate block when he met a cross with a volley.<\/p>\n<p>The final chance of the half fell to Murillo, the Brazilian centre-back creating it all himself.<\/p>\n<p>He had possession just inside the Palace half and, under no pressure, drove into the open space ahead of him.<\/p>\n<p>He burst between three Palace bodies, bamboozled Marc Guehi with some fancy footwork but then saw Johnstone save his first effort and follow-up.<\/p>\n<p>It would have been some goal from the eye-catching Brazilian who was making just his second Premier League appearance since his summer move from Corinthians.<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/07\/17\/76281025-0-image-a-2_1696697987300.jpg\" height=\"456\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Morgan Gibbs-White came close to breaking the deadlock after his chip hit the woodwork<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/07\/17\/76281023-0-image-a-1_1696697984216.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The midfielder was slotted through and lifted a deft finish over the onrushing Sam Johnstone<\/p>\n<p>It was not until the hour mark that the first real chance of the second half came.

His control and touch helped the ball onto Jean-Philippe Mateta who slipped at the crucial moment and could only slide his shot wide.<\/p>\n<p>Palace were lifted once again and Mateta headed Mitchell&#8217;s cross over soon after.<\/p>\n<p>But Montiel was a threat again for Forest unleashing another acrobatic volley which Joachim Andersen deflected just over his own bar.<\/p>\n<p>And two more interventions from Johnstone, to turn way Gibbs-White&#8217;s shot and dive at the feet of Divock Origi, were needed to help Palace hold on for their point.<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube, Apple Music and Spotify.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12605549\/Crystal-Palace-Nottingham-Forest-sides-point-Jean-Philippe-Matetas.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crystal Palace 0-0 Nottingham Forest: Roy Hodgson toasts his 400th game as a Premier League manager with a creditable home draw as his injury-hit side earn a point on landmark occasion after stop-start clash Roy Hodgson&#8217;s Crystal Palace earned a point on his Premier League landmark Morgan Gibbs-White and Jean-Philippe Mateta both squandered golden chances [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":292785,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
