Nottingham Forest struck first, but Crystal Palace fought back to hand Oliver Glasner a bitter return to his old stomping ground.
Oliver Glasner's emotional return to Selhurst Park ended in disappointment as Crystal Palace came from behind to beat Nottingham Forest in the Premier League.
Forest made the brighter start and grabbed an early lead, giving the visiting dugout reason to believe the homecoming could end in a statement result. Instead, the advantage proved fragile.
Palace responded with the energy and belief their home crowd demands. They turned the contest around and took control, leaving Forest to rue the chance to build on a promising opening.
For Glasner, facing the club and supporters he once worked with was always going to be a charged occasion. The result will sting, and his side will want answers on how a lead slipped away so quickly. Palace, meanwhile, can savour a spirited comeback and a vital three points on home turf.
