‘Another one’s coming!’ - USMNT star Chris Richards makes bold goal vow after breaking Premier League duck at Crystal Palace

Premier League

Crystal Palace

Manchester United

The United States international defender moved to Selhurst Park from Bayern Munich in 2022. Opportunities were in short supply during his debut campaign in English football, with only 10 appearances made across all competitions.

WHAT HAPPENED?

He has figured more prominently this term, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/usmnt-star-chris-richards-no-longer-defender-man-of-match-crystal-palace-unexpected-role/blt2f1dd5f07e291a88 " target="_blank">filling a holding midfield role</a> at times, and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/usmnt-star-chris-richards-hilariously-responds-to-question-over-defenders-first-goal-for-crystal-palace/blt91e12d41cd229bd4" target="_blank">registered his first goal for the Eagles at the 31st attempt in a 3-0 victory over Burnley</a>. Richards hopes the floodgates will now open for him, with the 23-year-old confident that he can contribute at both ends of the field.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

Richards has told Palace’s <a href="https://www.cpfc.co.uk/news/first-team/chris-richards-reaction-crystal-palace-burnley-february-2024/ " target="_blank">official website</a>: “I've wanted it [my first goal] all year. Of course, you always like to score goals, but I think it was a very crucial goal in a very crucial game, so I'm very happy about it. Jordan [Ayew] was talking about hitting it back post the whole time, so I figured if T [Tyrick Mitchell] jumped with the man, I was going to be wide open, so I just tried to stay back post. Everybody likes to score goals. Fans like to see it, so it definitely changed the mood for the game, and the games coming up as well. I think another one’s coming!”

WHAT RICHARDS SAID

Richards did find the target during a loan spell at Hoffenheim in 2021-22 and has one effort for his country – which came against Canada in June 2023. He will hope that there are more goals to celebrate over the coming weeks, with 2024 shaping up to be a big year for Palace and the USMNT.
