WESTHAM 1-1 CRY: HALLER’S FANTASTIC LEVELER EARNS HAMMERS A DRAW.

Sebastien Haller scored a sensational overhead kick to earn West Ham United a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace.

Haller met Vladimir Coufal’s right-wing cross in acrobatic fashion to hammer the ball into the top-left corner in the 55th minute for his third Premier League goal of the season.

Christian Benteke had given Palace the lead with his third goal in three matches, when he met Joel Ward’s centre with a diving header.

However, the Palace forward’s night was spoiled when he was sent off in the 70th minute after picking up a second booking following a challenge on Tomas Soucek.

The point leaves West Ham seventh on 21 points, while Palace are 12th on 18.
