Your Complete Guide to the Football League Play-Offs: Crystal Palace v Bristol City




This Saturday lunchtime at a sun-drenched Selhurst Park Crystal Palace entertained Bristol City in the 1st leg of the Football League Championship play-off sponsored by Coca-Cola.
Bristol City took the lead in the 52nd minute from a wonderful Louis Carey strike, his first goal in some 500 appearances for Bristol City.
Palace equalised three minutes from time from a Ben Watson penalty after City's goalscoring hero had conceded the spot-kick.
No sooner had the 4th official indicated that there would be five minutes of injury time, City's David Noble from out of the blue struck a wonderful goal to put Bristol City 2-1 up.
Final score from Selhurst Park:
CRYSTAL PALACE 1-2 BRISTOL CITY
The second leg is at Ashton Gate next Tuesday 13th May 2008 kick off 7.45pm
