Dean Gordon equalises for Crystal Palace |
Since winning the Unofficial English Championship from Liverpool, Bristol City had retained it for four matches in games against Tranmere Rovers, Stockport County, Sunderland and Charlton Athletic.
Game 5 brought them to a swamped Selhurst Park to play table-topping Crystal Palace. It started well enough for City when Mark Shail nodded them ahead on 21 minutes. The joy was short-lived however as Palace equalised through a Dean Gordon penalty just a few minutes later.
Crystal Palace took the lead in the second-half when the Bristol goalkeeper made a bodge of trying to clear the ball outside the area and John Salako had an empty net to lob the ball into.
Then Chris Armstrong got a brace to seal the game for the Eagles.
Palace already looked good bets for promotion from Division One and now they were the English Champions as well.
