That's it! Palace end the week with a win in 90 minutes!
Fully deserved for the Eagles who were excellent for an hour before the contest drifted a little. A solid workout and a result to boot. A good night for Pierre Sage's side all in all.

Can Palace get another?

GOAL: PALACE HAVE THREE
A very simple goal. An inswinging corner isn't dealt with by Al-Ula and Canvot is able to poke home by reacting quickly. Palace have restored the two-goal cushion!

Romell Quioto (Al Ula) is shown the yellow card.

Eagles creating chances
França has already gone close twice since the break, the first a curling free-kick that just had too much height. Just as I say that Hughes whips in another dangerous set-piece which proves just too high for King.
47'
SUBS FOR PALACE
Rak-Sakyi, Jemide, Ozoh and King are all on for Palace. Off go Cardines, Richards, Kamada and Nketiah.
46'
Half-time analysis
That's the best 45 minutes from Palace in pre-season so far. They've played at an intensity that, at times, Al-Ula have not been able to live with. Cardines, Devenny and Nketiah have all looked really dangerous. Probably should have more than two goals to show for it.

Eagles in control
We may not have found the third goal yet, but Palace have continued to dominate since the water break. There's some lovely positional interchange between the front three which is causing problems.

Water break time
The players make a brief stop to stay hydrated. Palace have dominated the vast majority of the opening 22 minutes.

Goal: Palace 2-1 Al-Ula
Al-Ula are back in it. Al Sulaiheem controls the ball on the edge of the Palace box and picks out the corner with a nice finish. It's been an all-action start here.

GOAL: Palace 2-0 Al-Ula
What a move that is!! Again it's down the right-wing. Devenny cuts the ball into Cardines' path. His cross is perfect for Nketiah to finish from close range. Palace are on it tonight!

Just over from França!
Another quick break down the right from the Eagles sees Rio Cardines get in behind their defence. Matheus França’s finish is off target from close-range. But Palace have made a strong start here!

GOAL: Palace 1-0 Al-Ula
What a start!! Palace build a flowing move down the right hand side which ends with Justin Devenny's cool finish past Atiyah at his near post. 1-0 Palace!! What a start!
