Andre Moritz scores twice from free kicks to help Crystal Palace to a win over Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Two long-range free kicks from Andre Moritz helped Crystal Palace to a 3-1 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Championship this afternoon.

Wolves were dominant in the opening minutes of the match, but Crystal Palace soon found their way into the game, Wilfried Zaha creating a series of chances for the home side.

Moritz broke the deadlock just after the half-hour mark with a powerful free kick from long range.

Yannick Bolasie added Palace's second shortly before the break with a strike from inside the box, Zaha setting up the goal.

Moritz scored his second from another direct free kick just five minutes into the second half, after being brought down by Roger Johnson outside the penalty area.

Sylvan Ebanks-Blake grabbed a consolation for the visitors 15 minutes from full time, but Palace continued to dominate possession and Wolves were unable to reduce the deficit further.

The win sees Palace move up to third in the Championship table, while Wolves drop to 18th.
