London - First-half goals by Santi Cazorla and Olivier Giroud gave Arsenal a 2-1 victory at Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Saturday that ended up closer than expected.
Glenn Murray, the Palace substitute, replied in injury time and almost grabbed an improbable point for the South London side when his last-gasp header rebounded off the post.
In the end it was not as comfortable a form of preparation for Wednesday's Champions League visit of Monaco as it appeared for most of the game, but it was good enough to lift Arsene Wenger's side to third place.
