Crystal Palace gave new manager Oliver Glasner a dream start with a 3-0 win over 10-man Burnley on Saturday and eased their Premier League relegation worries.

After a scoreless first-half dominated by Palace, in which Burnley were reduced to 10-men, the home side scored all three goals in an 11-minute period in the second half in Glasner's first game in charge.

Chris Richards broke the deadlock in the 68th minute with a header from a Jordan Ayew cross.

Ayew doubled the lead three minutes later before Jean Mateta wrapped up the win from the penalty spot in the 79th minute.

Palace moved up to 14th on 28 points, eight clear of the relegation zone while Burnley remain second from bottom with 13 points.
