Bryan Mbeumo’s retaken penalty and a brave Kevin Schade header gave the Bees only a second win in 10 matches across all competitions.

The visitors broke the deadlock midway through the second half after Maxence Lacroix felled Nathan Collins in the box.

Mbeumo struck the post with his initial penalty but, after Marc Guehi was penalised for encroachment after a video assistant referee (VAR) review, the forward made no mistake with his retaken spot-kick as he sent Dean Henderson the wrong way.

Schade secured the points when he nodded in Mikkel Damsgaard's cross 10 minutes from time, although debutant Romain Esse grabbed a late consolation from close range for the Eagles.

Thomas Frank's side stays 11th but moves four points clear of Palace, which remains 12th.
