Stockport had chances to level the game, but Palace did also miss a lot of opportunities to score more goals.

“I think that's the most important thing - that we're through to the next round,” Turner explained to club media.

“That was the main objective of today, I'd say. Obviously, coming out of the gate scoring early was a big, big moment for us and then we really controlled a lot of the game.

“I wish that we could have threatened their goal maybe a little bit more to get that second goal and really put the game away. But we didn't, and we had to kill off another game at 1-0.”
