Marc Guehi returned to Crystal Palace squad: how the match went after the transfer failure.

Draw for Palace

According to The Sun: Marc Guehi is back in the Crystal Palace squad, and in his debut return, the team drew with Sunderland, finishing the match without conceding goals.

This is not just a draw — for Palace, it is already the tenth match without defeat, which is their longest unbeaten run in the Premier League.

For Guehi, this was a pleasant bonus, as he did not expect to play in this match, yet he performed reliably.

The England international wore the red and blue kit after his transfer to Liverpool fell through in the final hours before the transfer window closed.

He could have been preparing to play against the Premier League champions, but he returned to Palace in South London, captaining the team and trying to put the failure behind him.

Sunderland largely adopted a defensive position, and Guehi and his defensive partners felt confident as the opponent did not create serious threats.

The central defender, who scored his first goal for the England team last Tuesday, was eager for victory, but Palace's attack could not capitalize on their chances — Sunderland's goalkeeper Robin Roos made several extraordinary saves.

Jeremy Pino could have been the hero but failed to hit the target in the first half. The Spanish forward, who is valued at 26 million, could not convert his one-on-one chance.

In the second half, Roos showcased his high class, saving the team from conceding goals with fantastic saves.

Sunderland was grateful to their goalkeeper, as this draw marked their first away point since returning to the Premier League.

For Palace, it was a disappointment, as their dominance on the field did not lead to three points.

Guehi is likely contemplating his future at Palace, as his contract expires at the end of the season. He is eager to get back to playing and handle the situation professionally after the unfortunate transfer.

Sunderland, though they left with one point, failed to create a single shot on target throughout the 90 minutes. This draw could be a turning point for both teams in their upcoming matches.
