The Brazilian stormed in unmarked at  the  back post to prod home Alexandre Lacazette's flick-on from a  corner.Palace  stemmed the Arsenal tide and reduced the deficit in the 32nd  minute. A  VAR review overturned Martin Atkinson's original decision to  book  Wilfried Zaha for a dive in the penalty area under a challenge  from  Calum Chambers, with Milivojevic slotting home the resulting  spot-kick.Palace  restored parity seven minutes into the second period  when Ayew lost  David Luiz in the area to nod home James McArthur's  cross from the left.Xhaka's  spat with supporters followed soon after, while Sokratis  thought he had  sealed all three points six minutes from time. His  effort from 10 yards  was ruled out following a review, however, after  Chambers had been  deemed to have made a foul in the build-up.Zaha flashed wide in  the closing stages as Palace threatened to make  life even more difficult  for Emery, who now faces the unenviable task  of building bridges  between his captain and supporters.</blockquote>
