What. A. Game.

Bottom club Swansea City establish a 3-1 lead against fellow strugglers Crystal Palace, only to toss it away and fall behind with minutes remaining. Six minutes to go, 4-3 Palace. Surely the away side had done in enough to get the three points, right? Wrong. Not only did Alan Pardew's side concede a Fernando Llorente equaliser in stoppage time, the Spaniard also scored a fifth for Swansea, snatching a much-needed win for Bob Bradley and sending Pards and his boys to a sixth straight defeat. Within minutes of the full-time whistle at the Liberty, football fans were full of sympathetic words for the Palace boss. https://twitter.com/ian13smith/status/802558633921937408 https://twitter.com/UjpestUK/status/802558605899759620 https://twitter.com/JordyVence/status/802559079256207361 https://twitter.com/ItsJammmyy/status/802558926470389761 Palace supporters were also quick to support their boss after such a valiant effort from his team. https://twitter.com/RobCompton88/status/802559503078199297 https://twitter.com/Cpfc_Perry/status/802559113683079168 https://twitter.com/Luke_Watson21/status/802558618994352128 https://twitter.com/IShippyI/status/802557601393221634 https://twitter.com/ScottDannFan/status/802558435434909696 Chin up, Alan.
