Benteke scores one of his goals

Two goals from Christian Benteke helped Crystal Palace gain a much-needed win over Southampton to ease the pressure on Eagles boss Alan Pardew.

The hosts went ahead when Saints goalkeeper Fraser Forster, in front of watching England manager Gareth Southgate, sliced a clearance and Benteke scored from close range.

Palace doubled their lead when an unmarked James Tomkins prodded home from three yards out after a corner.

Benteke grabbed his second late on as he tapped in after Jason Puncheon’s pull-back as Palace secured their first win in eight matches.
