An 87th-minute goal from Connor Wickham, allowed by a VAR review, earned Crystal Palace a 1-1 draw at bottom club Norwich City, a bitter blow for the struggling Canaries.

Norwich had led after a fourth-minute goal from Todd Cantwell and dominated for large stretches but were unable to add to their tally -- Kenny McLean hitting the bar in the 73rd minute.

But Palace drew level when Wilfried Zaha slid a pass across the face of the goal to Wickham who slid the ball home, only to see the offside flag raised.

However, a VAR review ruled that Wickham was just onside when the ball was played and reversed referee Jon Moss`s decision.

Norwich are winless in eight games and have just one victory in 16 matches.

The side bottom of the Premier League going into a new year has been relegated in 23 of the previous 27 seasons.
