On Wednesday evening, two postponed matches of the English Premier League XXVI round were played, in which the favorites performed poorly.
The fight for fourth place was complicated by the Everton players coached by Roberto Martinez, who lost at home to Tony Pulis' Crystal Palace team.
In the first half, Jason Puncheon put the London club ahead, so from the middle of the first half, the Toffees were forced to chase their opponents.
At the beginning of the second half, the visitors doubled their lead after Scott Dann's accurate shot from a corner kick.
Steven Naismith's goal in the 61st minute gave hope, but Cameron Jerome quickly extended the lead again.
Approaching the end of the match, Kevin Mirallas once again reduced the deficit, but Crystal Palace successfully defended and celebrated the victory and three points.
In another match, Manchester City players drew at home against Sunderland, complicating their position in the title race even more.
In the 2nd minute, Fernandinho put City ahead, but two Connor Wickham goals in the second half turned the match upside down.
However, City managed to secure a point. Samir Nasri equalized at the end of the match.
After this match, Manuel Pellegrini's team is 6 points behind the leading Liverpool players and have played one fewer game.
