Julian Speroni

Crystal Palace were well beaten 3-0 away to Nottingham Forest.

Palace remain in the bottom three after suffering their fifth successive defeat on the road.

Julian Speroni kept the Eagles in the the game with two saves early on by twice denying Lewis McGugan before Robbie Earnshaw saw a "goal" disallowed after fouling the Palace stopper.

Forest centre-half Luke Chambers then put his team into the lead on 32 minutes by nodding home McGugan's corner.

Just 35 seconds into the second period, Tudgay got on the end of Guy Moussi's long ball and lobbed Speroni to score the second of the game.

Speroni then denied Earnshaw, Chambers and Paul Anderson to keep the score down as Forest turned the screw.

And the hosts grabbed a third goal with five minutes to go as substitute Nathan Tyson set up fellow sub Garath McCleary to score.
