I thought Palmer scored it when watching live from the East Stand, and haven't changed my mind. There's only one replay angle where it looks like Vik hit it, and that's an illusion IMO.
So if Palmer is Bill, it was Bill. And if Palmer is Ben, it was Ben.

Was absolutely convinced it was Vik from 24. Have bowed to peer pressure and the internet instead of my lying eyes though.
Did you have sunglasses?
You can slow it to frame by frame but it's still hard to see
Palmer blatantly sidefooted it in - end of discussion

Badly I don’t think the issue is a cap though he keeps goal like he has his gloves on the wrong hands.
It is Palmer's as clear as day from the angle behind the goal, Gyokeres' foot is unquestionably behind Palmer's as he struck the ball. Every other angle looked like Gyokeres though, it was a weird one.
From block 17 I thought it was Palmer at first but everything else had me convinced I was wrong until I saw that angle, also showed Palmer's a little lucky he didn't have his achilles caved in
We were in 35 (as my daughter had been mascot) so completely opposite to you, and I thought Gyokeres at the time too.
I'm in block 2, and was convinced it was Gyokeres. Neither player celebrated the goal, which made it more confusing.
This was the angle that cemented it for me
Has anyone considered that Palmer touched the ball first but Gyokeres foot speed meant his foot went past Palmer's and touched the ball last?
Certainly Palmer seemed to stroke the ball, then it suddenly gained momentum.
Palmer assisted, Gyokeres scored.

Doing this to death I know, but it's a pity that doubting the scorer has detracted a bit from Palmer's fine sidefoot technique. If it had been a winner, we'd have been raving about this. The ball is on its way and Vik's foot hasn't got there yet.
Question is who scored the own goal? I thought it was Bidwell and I've seen Rose get the credit but going by the general angry shouting in the rows around us I think the best thing to do is blame Dabo by default.
Really still not sure despite all the images?
From the CCFC website - 'That lead was halved five minutes later when Brooke Norton-Cuffy picked out Viktor Gyökeres with a superb ball into the box and the Swede took a touch and Palmer ran onto the ball and unleashed a thunderous strike to beat Krul from the edge of the area.'
Quite a bit of poetic licence in that description I think!
