LONDON (Reuters) -Crystal Palace wingerDaniel Munoz netted a second-half winner as they secured a 2-1 Premier League win over Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday, with Eddie Nketiah and Marc Guehi shown red cards and Brighton's Jan Paul van Hecke also sent off late on.

Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta,who had already fired wide from an offside position, needed a little more than two minutes to find the net, picking up a pass from Eberechi Eze and lashing home a dipping shot, but Brighton equalised through Danny Welbeck's close-range effort in the 31st minute.
