Lewes celebrate their equaliser against Palace / Picture: GettyThe win completed the double for Palace over Lewes in the FA Women’s Championship, with the visitors finishing the season in fifth. Lewes made a promising start to the game, but they failed to test Crystal Palace shot-stopper Chloe Morgan. With half-time approaching, Crystal Palace opened the scoring through Gaylor who drilled a powerful left-footed shot past Saunders to give the home side a deserved lead. Moments later, Bianca Baptiste tried her luck as she fired a thumping straight at Saunders and Lewes cleared the danger. Teams don’t sit back against us and teams that are dangerous as Crystal Palace on the transition gave us exposure on what we need, and so, there was a lot of learning.”
