Really glad to see Esse given a whole half. Hopefully the start of brighter things for him. I hope his time out of the spotlight did him some good. Here's to a goal or two in the next 45!

Shelbourne 0-3 Crystal Palace
Don Hutchison
Ex-Scotland midfielder on TNT SportsShelbourne's best passage of play, by far. One-two touch football. A little give and go around the corner, and it is better football.

Andy Townsend
Former Aston Villa midfielder on TNT SportsWhat a goal. Tielemans has just got a bit of class about him.
Buendia does brilliantly to get his body in the way and the temptation for Tielemans is to hit it. He just places it and that is absolutely what you would expect of Youri Tielemans.

Still all Palace - with those half-time rotations too.
GOAL - Basel 1-2 Aston Villapublished at 21:11 GMT 11 December 2025
Youri Tielemans (52 mins)
Villa are back in front!
Substitute Youri Tielemans gets his first of the season with a fantastic side-footer from the edge of the area which he just passes into the corner after being teed up by Emi Buendia.
Class goal.

Villa start the second half with a spell of possession. Basel are stepping off them.

Former Aston Villa midfielder on TNT SportsI think Donyell Malen will like a little bit more service and support.

Disappointing Villa. Need to solidify the midfield and keep our fingers crossed that Watkins packed his shooting boots.

Joel Ward
Former Crystal Palace defender on TNT SportsIt is a great opportunity to get minutes into other players and to also rest players as well.
SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 21:04 GMT 11 December 2025

Palace bring on Will Hughes, Romaine Esse and Jefferson Lerma for Adam Wharton, Yeremy Pino and Daicha Kamada.

Former Aston Villa midfielder on TNT SportsVilla were dominating this game in the first 20-25 minutes. But we said before the game that Basel, you can never write them off and they did come back.

Guessing Martin O'Neill will be back in charge of Celtic before the season ends than. Hope he hasn't made plans.

Wilfried Nancy's Celtic are 3-0 down at home to Roma. You can follow live coverage of that game here.

Crystal Palace sit 10th in the table as things stand - so they'd still need to catch up points in the final game to avoid the play-off round.

Aston Villa must get their defending sorted out if they are to go on and win something this season.

Andy Townsend
Former Aston Villa midfielder on TNT SportsI think what we have seen is that when Villa take care, they can create chances.
But if they switch off, this Basel team can be awkward.
