At Brighton & Hove, England:

Wilfried Zaha delivered both goals (69', 88') as Crystal Palace defeated home-standing Brighton & Hove Albion 2-0, both in Monday's second game of their English League Championship promotional playoff semifinal series and on aggregate for the two-game series.  The Eagles will take on Watford at Wembley Stadium in London in the May 27 promotion final with the winner joining Cardiff City and Hull City in gaining promotion to the English Premier League next season.
