Crystal Palace have started their new Premier League campaign by beating Norwich City 3-1 at Carrow Road this afternoon.
Wilfried Zaha gave Palace the lead just before half time when he turned in Jason Puncheon's cross at the back post.
The Eagles added a second goal shortly after the break as Damien Delaney slotted in from close range following a corner.
Norwich pulled a goal back through Nathan Redmond, who drilled a strike from range into the bottom corner.
Cameron Jerome then had a goal ruled out for a high foot, before Yohan Cabaye added a third in stoppage time to wrap up the points for the visitors.
Here, Sports Mole rates the best and worst performances from Carrow Road.
NORWICH:
Goal
John Ruddy: The keeper was forced into making a number of decent saves throughout the match, but he will not be happy at being beaten twice at his near post. (6/10)
Defence
Steven Whittaker: It was a tough afternoon for the Scot, who suffered a torrid time against Zaha. He was beaten by the winger for pace countless times and was nowhere to be found for the opening goal. (5/10)
Russell Martin: Struggled against the pace of the Palace attack and looked vulnerable from set pieces throughout the match. (6/10)
Sebastien Bassong: Another of the back four who struggled to contain the threat of Zaha and Puncheon. He was unlucky not to win his side a penalty in stoppage time, after being fouled by Wickham. (6/10)
Robbie Brady: Played in an unfamiliar left-back role and was beaten too easily by Puncheon, as he set up Zaha's goal. The Irishman was better coming forward, but his efforts on goal were poor throughout. (6/10)
Midfield
Bradley Johnson: The midfielder helped Norwich to dominate the game in the early stages, but he gradually faded as the match wore on. (6/10)
Jonny Howson: Got into some promising areas for the Canaries and put an effort wide early on, albeit from an offside position. He was heavily involved and battled well until the final minute. (7/10)
Wes Hoolahan: One of Norwich's best players this afternoon. He showed his quality on the ball and played a part in setting up Redmond's goal. (7/10)
Graham Dorrans: The Scot looked good in possession, but he did not see enough of the ball and faded badly in the latter stages of the match. (6/10)
Alexander Tettey: Not the greatest display from the Norwegian who seemed to struggle. He did have a number of attempts on goal, but none were close to troubling the keeper. (6/10)
Attack
Lewis Grabban: The striker was chosen ahead of Jerome, but he did not vindicate his manager's decision and was replaced shortly after the break following a lacklustre display. (5/10)
Substitutes
Cameron Jerome: Looked lively following his introduction and scored a well-taken goal that was controversially disallowed by the referee. (7/10)
Nathan Redmond: Came on at the same time as Jerome and made a similar impact. He was a threat down the wings and he scored a fine goal to give his side hope of a comeback. (7/10)
Gary Hooper: Was brought on for the final 10 minutes but did not have any time to make a real impact. (6/10)
CRYSTAL PALACE:
Goal
Alex McCarthy: He did not have too much to do, but he will feel that he should have saved Redmond's strike, which found the far corner despite his best efforts. (6/10)
Defence
Joel Ward: Produced a solid display down the right and did not come under too much pressure from the Norwich wingers. (6/10)
Scott Dann: Was a rock at the centre of the Palace defence and made a number of vital clearances as his team came under heavy pressure in the final minutes. (7/10)
Damien Delaney: The Irishman was also a calming influence at the heart of the Eagles' backline and he scored their second goal with a clinical finish from close range. (7/10)
Pepe Souare: Linked up brilliantly with Zaha down the left throughout the afternoon for Palace. His direct running caused no end of problems for the Eagles and he was also reliable at the back. (7/10)
Midfield
Yohan Cabaye: The Frenchman was not at his outstanding best, but he did show enough quality on the ball to get Palace fans excited. He was always reliable in possession and capped off his debut with a fine goal in stoppage time. (7/10)
James McArthur: Solid performance in the midfield from the Scot. He kept things ticking over for his side and set up Cabaye's goal with a fine through ball. (7/10)
Jordon Mutch: Played in a more advanced role than usual, and although he did not make too much of an impact, he worked hard for his team. (6/10)
Attack
Wilfried Zaha: The winger was brilliant all afternoon for Palace and he scored the vital opening goal. He gave Whittaker problems throughout and looked full of confidence every time he came forward. (8/10)
Jason Puncheon: Another good showing from the winger who provided the opening goal for Zaha with a well-timed cross. His pace was too much for Brady to handle and he put in a strong shift all afternoon. (7/10)
Glenn Murray: Led the line well for Palace and had a chance to score in the first half, but his effort was saved by Ruddy. (6/10)
Substitutes
Yannick Bolasie: Was brought on for the final 18 minutes and looked lively. (6/10)
Connor Wickham: Almost gave away a late penalty after shoving Bassong inside the box, but the referee gave nothing. (6/10)
Mile Jedinak: Was brought on midway through the second half to help shore up the Palace midfield. (6/10)
