Crystal Palace led Luton Town for most of their Premier League match on Saturday only to concede a late equaliser, while Bournemouth came from 2-0 behind to grab a point against Sheffield United on the South Coast. Elsewhere, Fulham also scored in stoppage time but it could not prevent them suffering a defeat at the hands of Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Crystal Palace looked set to continue their good form under new manager Oliver Glasner, but had to settle for a 1-1 draw with relegation-threatened Luton Town on Saturday afternoon.
Jean-Philippe Mateta’s 11th-minute strike looked set to be the difference, with a backheel volley to convert a Daniel Munoz cross after he had intercepted a backpass.
In added time, former Palace winger Andros Townsend found Cauley Woodrow who guided the ball into the net for a late equaliser.
Palace now have a win and two draws from their last four matches.
A point for Palace leaves them in 14th place, while Luton are now in 18th spot, three points behind Nottingham Forest above them.
Gary O’Neil’s impressive stint as Wolves manager endured as second-half goals from Rayan Ait-Nouri, turning in a cross at the near post, and then Nelson Semedo gave the Black Country side a 2-1 victory over Fulham after a late Alex Iwobi strike set up a tense finish.
Wolves sit eighth following the win, with Marco Silva’s men 12th.
Sheffield United blew a 2-0 lead at mid-table Bournemouth as they looked on course to react well to a 6-0 home defeat to Arsenal on Monday
Blades boss Chris Wilder gave a Premier League debut to 19-year-old Ollie Arblaster amid suggestions the team would start to prioritise younger players ahead of an anticipated summer clearout, and 26-year-old Gustavo Hammer gave the visitors the lead midway through the first half.
Jack Robinson made it two on 64 minutes, before Dango Ouattara pulled one back 10 minutes later to prompt a nervy end to the game.
Bournemouth pressed for an equaliser into stoppage time, and Eres Unal had a shot cleared off the line before he poked home with the rebound. Sheffield United are now 19th on 14 points, 10 points from safety, while Bournemouth are 13th on 32.
In the day's early kick-off live on TNT Sports, Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes scored from the spot as Manchester United beat Everton 2-0, while the evening game saw Arsenal beat Brentford 2-1.
