Justin Devonny, who can play in different positions, hopes to get more playing time.

Crystal Palace defeated Al-Ula 3-1 in a friendly match thanks to goals from Justin Devonny, Nketiah, and Jedd Cornwall. Justin Devonny stated that his ability to play in different positions is an advantage, but he also hopes to get more playing time in the future.

At the start of the match, Justin Devini received a pass from Rio Cadines and slotted the ball home, giving Crystal Palace a dream start of 1-0. Nine minutes later, Rio Cadines assisted Nketiah to score, extending Crystal Palace's lead over Al-Ura to 2-0.

In the 16th minute, Surahim broke through Crystal Palace's defense, pulling one back for Al-Ura to 1-2. In the 57th minute of the second half, Jedd Cornwall scored. Ultimately, Crystal Palace defeated Al-Ura 3-1 in this friendly match.

Crystal Palace midfielder Justin Devonny, 22, said, "We practice these passing combinations in training all the time. As soon as we make a tackle, we know we have to launch a quick counter-attack immediately. We played like this last season."

“Rio Cadines made a great tackle, and I saw him surge forward, so we had a good combination and continued our run. Even towards the end, I still had other passing options in the box because my teammates were all very aggressive in pushing into the area. Luckily, I put the ball in. Because if I hadn't scored, I don't think Nketiah would have been too happy.”

In addition, Justin Devonny said, "I think being able to play in different positions is an advantage. Last season, I often played in different positions. However, I don't really care what position I play, as long as I can play."

“I just want to play as many games as possible. In the first two games, I played as a defensive midfielder, and in this game, I played as a number 10. Whatever position the team needs me to play, I will be happy to accept it.”
