Goals from Daniel Muñoz and half-time substitute Eddie Nketiah ensured Palace took maximum points in our first fixture of the league phase.
Pino was the architect of both goals, assisting from the left wing – the first with a flighted cross which Muñoz headed back across goal, and the latter with a simply sumptuous piece of skill.
Appearing to be running down a cul-de-sac, the Spaniard's quick footwork left Volodymyr Brazhko flummoxed, before his outside-of-the-boot cross was met at the near post by Nketiah.
