Everton Beats Palace 2-0 in Season Opener

Everton secured an impressive start to the new Premier League season with a 2-0 win at home against Crystal Palace. Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall gave the hosts the lead just before halftime with a well-placed shot from an angle, and Thierno Barry doubled the advantage early in the second half with a header.

Norwegian striker Jørgen Strand Larsen came on for Palace after 63 minutes, replacing Jean-Philippe Mateta, but couldn't prevent the defeat. The match was further marred by an injury to former Arsenal player Chadi Riad, who had to be stretchered off in his league debut for Palace with what appeared to be a serious knee injury. djcc.club
