Fans are stunned by Crystal Palace’s post just moments after their draw with Arsenal, which puts Liverpool on the verge of winning the title.

Fans were left in disbelief by Crystal Palace’s post on X just moments after their dramatic 2-2 draw with Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday night.

Both sides entered the game with eyes on upcoming fixtures—Palace preparing for an FA Cup semi-final clash against Aston Villa, and Arsenal looking ahead to a Champions League semi-final showdown with PSG. Still, Wednesday’s match turned out to be an entertaining contest, especially for Liverpool supporters, who were hoping for a Palace win that would have secured the Premier League title for their team.

Arsenal struck early with a goal from Jakub Kiwior in the third minute, but Palace responded with a volley from Eberechi Eze in the 27th. Leandro Trossard restored the Gunners’ lead just before halftime, but Jean-Philippe Mateta fired in a stunning equalizer with only seven minutes remaining.

Despite the thrilling action on the field, it was a cheeky social media post that sparked the most buzz. At 10:09 p.m. BST, Crystal Palace tweeted, “You’re welcome Liverpool…”—a nod to the fact that Liverpool could now clinch the title at home with a win over Tottenham on Sunday.

The post quickly went viral, drawing a wave of reactions from fans.

One user wrote, “I forgive you for 2014. Good luck on Saturday lads!”

Another joked, “I had to double check the profile, thought it was a parody account.”

A third fan said, “Absolute legends. That performance deserved a win. 1990 FA Cup semi? Forgiven.”

And a fourth quipped, “If I had to guess which team would post something like that, it would be Palace. Steve Parish probably tweeted it himself. They act like a League Two club.”

Following the match, Palace boss Oliver Glasner praised his team’s resilience and fight.

“I’m really proud of the players,” he told Palace TV. “After going 1-0 down, especially considering we conceded ten goals in our last two away matches, the way we bounced back at a stadium like the Emirates against an in-form Arsenal was incredible. We never lost our courage or belief, and I think the draw was thoroughly deserved.”
