Decent half between two struggling teams, but Ivan Juric needs to find something else from his Saints.
They have had their moments but Palace look so dangerous, yet so wasteful.
In his programme notes, Palace boss Oliver Glasner wrote: "There is a great quote from Kobe Bryant: 'Try to be better today than you were yesterday, and better tomorrow than you were today'. This won't stop in 2025."
How about simply being better in the second half?

BOURNEMOUTH are lucky to still be in this game. They are a goal down but could easily be a man down too.
Ryan Christie has escaped with a booking for what to everyone except ref Rob Jones and VAR Peter Bankes a cast-iron studs up challenge on Antonee Robinson.
The midfielder took out Andreas Pereira and lost control of the ball in doing so, he then went full throttle to reclaim and came together with Robinson's left shin. How that is not a red I wait to be informed by the PGMOL.
Tottenham 2-1 Wolves
45+3. Some great play from Kulusevski once again.
This time he finds Johnson in the middle of the box, who slots into the bottom right-hand corner of the goal.
Are you not entertained?
Goal - Brennan Johnson (Tottenham)

Nuno Espirito Santo had to deal with what looked like a major blow after defensive rock Murillo was forced to pull out in the warm up.
Winger Ramon Sosa replaced him with midfielder Nico Williams dropping to left back in a re – build back four.
But the rear guard that suffered was Everton’s – no thanks to sloppy work from the midfield ahead of them and there was little surprise when Chris Wood delivered a fine opener.
Leicester 0-1 Man City
58. We may be missing a trick with some Premier League players.
Bernardo Silva could be the answer to ending third-world hunger, he can make a meal out of anything.
A slight contact from Soumare sends the Portuguese midfielder flying in the air and rolling another twenty yards down the pitch.
Fulham 1-0 Bournemouth
40. Classic from Fulham.
Under the cosh for most of the game, they force a corner and take the lead in West London.
Pereira's delivery picks out Jimenez who heads home to get the Craven Cottage crowd going.

Aaron Ramsdale is still complaining about that Palace equaliser. Mateta certainly has a big shove on the former Arsenal keeper before Chalobah's header bobbles over the line from the corner.
Ramsdale has been having a good moan to himself with the ball up the other end, but he was called into action just now with a strong palm to deny Sarr and then getting behind an acrobatic overhead kick from Lerma.
Everton 0-1 Nott'm Forest
37. If you wanted to ensure you didn't get hit in the face by the ball at Goodison Park, the opposition goal seems the safest place to be.
The Toffees really do not create enough chances.
Forest have only had one shot on target in the game so far, but it seems enough to win this game currently.
Colleen Rooney is in the stands for the game today and you start to wonder if she could be a better job than Broja up top.

SOMETHING YOU don't see everyday.
Bournemouth take shape for an attacking corner and play stops so that Fulham keeper Bernd Leno can have a drink of red bull from a tin beside his post.
Leno points to his throat as if to suggest he has a sore throat. Odd.
Crystal Palace 1-1 Southampton
34. It is going to be a close run thing this season to see who lets more in, The Saints or Southampton ferry terminal.
As a Will Hughes cross comes into the box, Chalobah heads home from close range.
Selhurst Park erupts into a cauldron of noise.
Goal - Trevor Chalobah (Crystal Palace)

The first Southampton goal of the Ivan Juric era is here and it was scored by the teenage sensation Tyler Dibling.
Whisper it quietly, but for all the direct, back-to-front long balls Juric likes his side to execute, this opener was Russell Martin-esque.
Lots of great passing on the deck, switching the play from right to left and ending with a brilliant, low cross flicked on by Adam Armstrong and tapped in by Dibling from a few yards out.
This was meant to be the battle of the big men: Crystal Palace's Jean-Philippe Mateta at 6ft4 vs Saints giant Paul Onuachu at 6ft7.
But so far, it was a skinny teenager who has seemingly-doomed Southampton dreaming of just a second win in the Prem this term.

WHAT started at breakneck speed is now rather flat-footed.
A chance each and not much else. Maybe the excitement of recent results - and Bournemouth's absentee list - is catching up with them.
Fulham are not taking advantage of eight players missing from the visiting line up.

WELL it would not be a Spurs game without plenty of incident and goals - and there has been more than enough for most games inside the first 23 minutes here.
Wolves went 1-0 up through Hwang Hee-Chan’s excellent strike to have the away fans singing boss Vitor Pereira’s name from the stands.
But then Rodrigo Bentancur levelled things up with a bullet header from Pedro Porro’s corner - the same routine that worked against Ipswich last month.
Ange Postecoglou must have had his heart in his mouth though when back-up goalkeeper Fraser Forster went down clutching his left leg, though he is carrying on for now.
Oh and Matheus Cunha has looked like a Champions League-level player with some of his touches.
Fulham 0-0 Bournemouth
28. It is the visitors who are dominating in West London.
The Cherries have had all the possession and most of the attempts at goal in the opening half an hour.
The Cottagers seem to using the same tactic they did against Chelsea, absorb all they can throw at us and try and hit them on the counter-attack.
HT: Leicester 0-1 Man City
Despite leading at the King Power, this is not the Man City we are used to watching.
They look more nervous at the back than a 1970s TV personality who has heard he has had his hard drive seized by police.
If The Foxes lose this game, they only have themselves to blame and potentially deserve to go down as a result.

The City fans have taunted their hosts with chants of "Is this is the Etihad?"
The Leicester fathful had been quiet but they have seen enough now to know that this game is not necessarily over and have warmed up.
City do not look confident at the back and they have not created much since Savinho opened the scoring. The next goal will be crucial.
Everton 0-1 Nott'm Forest
16. Elanga wins a head and cushions it into the path of Wood.
He drills a right-footed shot straight down the middle of the goal into the roof of the net.
Forest are focussed on making that fourth spot theirs it seems.
Goal - Chris Wood (Nott'm Forest)
Crystal Palace 0-1 Southampton
15. Miracles do happen, The Saints lead a Premier League match.
Some good work by Armstrong sees him lay it on a plate for Dibling as he slots into the bottom corner from close range.
Juric is keen to get his first Southampton win under his belt no doubt.
Goal - Tyler Dibling (Southampton)
Tottenham 1-1 Wolves
12. A corner is swung in by Porro and Bentancur heads into the far corner to draw the hosts level.
Wolves' lead did not last long in North London.
As ever, plenty of entertainment at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Goal - Rodrigo Bentancur (Tottenham)
