Flint was later denied twice, with the first rebounding from the crossbar, before the second was superbly saved by Palace’s Chloe Morgan.

Around the half-hour mark, the visitors broke Palace’s lead after a spell of chances with a leveller from City’s Allen and as the Foxes’ confidence increased they soon slotted home a
