Individual errors cost Crystal Palace again

A draw was a fair reflection of the balance of play, but at this stage of the season, only wins will do for Crystal Palace.

Once again, a costly mistake made their job much more difficult.

Palace went behind through a calamitous own goal after 18 minutes when defender Lily Woodham, under little pressure, passed back to goalkeeper Milla-Maj Majasaari - but the ball rolled under the Finn's foot and trickled into the net.

What will frustrate Palace supporters is that their team were looking very comfortable defensively up until Woodham's own goal.

Laura Kaminski's side have the league's worst defensive record, having conceded 35 goals in 13 matches.

Majasaari lost concentration for just a second - and once the ball had rolled beyond her, she was never catching it before it hit the net.

Sure Palace did find a late equaliser to end a run of five straight defeats.

But the WSL's bottom side should never have found themselves behind in the first place.
