Wilfried Zaha nearly burst the net with an absolute screamer against Chelsea to bring Crystal Palace within one goal of Chelsea. Zaha scored a 30-yard shot, which was his first goal in 2020.
Crystal Palace have been a sort-of surprise team this season. Seeing themselves on the cusp of their highest-ever finish in the Premier League, Palace need to pick up as many points as possible with only a few games left.

Even though they are currently losing to Chelsea, Wilfried Zaha is trying his best to keep them in the game.
After going 2-0 down thanks to goals from Olivier Giroud and Christian Pulisic, Zaha picked up the ball 35-yards out and struck an absolute rocket into Kepa Arrizabalaga's net.
This was Zaha's first goal of 2020 after having a season to forget for Palace. With them currently losing to Chelsea, the goal was much needed for Palace who have only had one shot on target, which was of course Zaaha's.
Even Roy Hodgson showed some emotion to the rocket of a shot.
Crystal Palace see themselves down 2-1 going into half-time against Chelsea due to goals from Zaha, Pulisic, and Giroud.
