"Heartbreaker!" - National media react to Chelsea's first Premier League win under Graham Potter

Chelsea snatched all three points against Crystal Palace on Saturday after Conor Gallagher's 90th minute screamer broke opposition hearts.

Gallagher was a fan-favourite during his loan spell at Selhurst Park but came back to haunt Palace as he fired in a brilliant long-range winner, followed with a muted celebration out of respect for his former side. The English midfielder has enjoyed an impressive week after scoring for England under-21s before coming off the bench and sealing the Blues' first win under new manager Graham Potter.

Chelsea had to win the hard way after conceding inside 10 minutes at Selhurst Park before summer signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang equalised just before half-time with a smart finish on the spin. Christian Pulisic's cameo caught the eye as the American winger grabbed the assist for Gallagher's winner, which may see Potter hand the USMNT international a rare start in the coming games.
