The match marked Liverpool’s third consecutive disappointing result, capping off a tumultuous week for the Reds, Footballrover reports.
Eze’s decisive strike came just 14 minutes into the game, when he capitalised on a slick one-touch move from his teammates to find the back of the net from close range.
Despite Liverpool’s efforts to claw their way back into the match, including heroic saves from goalkeeper Alisson Becker and near misses from their attacking line-up, Palace held firm to claim a narrow 1-0 victory.
