Swans at the Palace Welcome to the live blog for Swansea's trip to Crystal Palace. It has already been a busy day for the Swans, who confirmed Paul Clement as their new boss on a two-and-a-half-year deal - and the 44-year-old will be watching at Selhurst Park tonight. For Palace, they are searching for a first win under Sam Allardyce - can he do so in his first home match? We'll soon find out. Kick-off is from 8pm.

End of 2nd Half
90+5'
And there's the full-time whistle!
Sam Allardyce's first home match as Crystal Palace boss ends with defeat, while Swansea claim three points in front of new boss Paul Clement, who made his way to the dug-out after seeing his side struggle.
Boos from the home fans, but it's a great win for Swansea!
90+4'
Sako tries to play it beyond Rangel, and the Swansea defender blocks the Palace player's route and somehow wins the free-kick.
Just one minute left for Swansea to run down... And they have a corner.
90+3'
Swansea take it to the corner... And Palace's attempts to hoof clear results in a throw for Swansea.
90+2'
Swansea have a free-kick near the Palace box and they are happy to kill some time here. Tomkins is angry with Dyer and he's wasting Palace's own time really.
90+1'
Kelly goes off as Mutch makes his way on for Palace.

Wowza. A minimum of five minutes added on!
88'
Rangel for Swansea!! It's 2-1!!
How has this happened?? Fer's delightful dink plays it into the patch of Angel Rangel, who beats the offside trap and chests it down before volleying it past Hennessey in the area. Amazing, has the Swansea right-back won it??

87'
I said it's all Palace... but Swansea break and it's with Llorente in the box, he's looking for help and it rolls away from him.
Fer then attemtps a shot from 20 yards out but it's blocked and suddenly Swansea are coming on strong!
86'
Sako lifts it in but Swansea clear only to Puncheon, whose ball in is poor. The Swans look to break but Ledley intercepts. It's all Palace now!
85'
Silly foul from Mawson and Palace have the chance to cross it in...
83'
WHAT A GOAL FROM ZAHA!
Out of nothing, Palace are level. Kelly's cross finds Zaha and the ball is behind him. It's no scorpion, but a terrific volley that flies beyond Fabianski. Did it get a delfection?? I've seen it four or five times now but can't quite tell. Benefit of the doubt... Great strike!
Palace are level! 1-1

82'
Puncheon runs out of pitch as he takes it to the byline and Palace are running out of time. They have one last sub to make, should they choose to do so...
80'
Routledge can't continue. He looks shattered and here comes Dyer in his place.

78'
Sako down the left for Palace. He gets past Routledge but his cross is headed clear by Fernandez.
No penalty! Moments later Palace are screaming for a penalty but it's waved away by the referee. Actually, it appears to catch Rangel's hand and it's not in a natural position... He swipes the ball away but the referee doesn't notice it.
75'
It's getting scrappy out there. 15 minutes to go and Swansea can see the finish line, but Palace are pushing and pushing for a leveller now...
73'
Cabaye crosses it in but Tomkins can't get to it and Swansea clear. A long ball back in by Kelly is caught by Fabianski, who takes his time before clearing his lines.
72'
The subs have also taken the sting out of the game somewhat. But as I say that, Palace come forward with Campbell, who plays it back to Zaha and his cross in is headed out for a corner.
71'
No doubt a tactical change from Clement there, and he makes his second sub with Angel Rangel on for Taylor. Fresh legs certainly needed for Swansea in defence.

Zaha darts into the box and takes the ball to the byline before crossing in, but it's blocked and Palace have a corner. It's a strange ball in from Sako and headed clear. But Palace have the ball back and Delaney's ball back in finds Zaha at the far post. His cross in fails to find a Palace player.
Moments later, a long ball is headed by Delaney onto Sako, who volleys first time but it's over the bar.
On comes Leroy Fer for Fulton.
