Crystal Palace v Fredrikstad - UEFA Conference League Play-off Round First Leg
Battling: Maxence Lacroix
The Eagles struggled for attacking impetus on the night after Eberechi Eze was left out of the squad ahead of making a move to Arsenal.
They were reduced to speculative crosses and pot shots, but their heavy first-half pressure would yield no goal despite Mateta hitting the post and Ismaila Sarr forcing a quality save.
Their approach after the break was unchanged, but Mateta was waiting in the box to tip a wayward Will Hughes shot over the line and open the scoring.
