is to drop in and try and stop that ball going in between you because you always say that corridor of uncertainty if that ball comes in between you and the keeper it's always tough so i can i can see where crystal palace defenders are coming from but you still want to be close but he's an intelligent player i think the touch is fantastic in the finish to put in the top corner his left foot was superb unstoppable and then four minutes later uh he's presented with a chance i'm not sure if he was surprised when it fell so close
to the goalkeeper in some ways was it an easier chance?
Yeah, and you know what, listen, you can't criticise him because he's been brilliant again tonight, but it's one of them that comes down, it's just, it's an instinct type shot, isn't it?
credit the goalkeeper for being in the right place at the right time.
You said something had to change.
They made a change in personnel at half-time, Jamie, but what did they change in terms of their approach in the second half?
Yeah 11 attempts in the last 22 minutes of the game including Wilf Sahar's goal we talked again beforehand about how you stop him why didn't it work?
It's so, so hard.
It really, really is.
I think when you've got a player like him, and we know how dangerous he can be, we really do, but he can go either way.
And I think you see the defender is worrying a little bit in terms of, I'm trying to stop the shot inside, but then obviously you leave the out.
And you can't blame the defender because it's so, so tough to do this.
It's such a tough defensive shape to have.
But you look now, I think he thinks he's going to come in and shoot on his right foot now, and then he comes back down to his left.
It's a brilliant finish.
It really, really is.
Sorry, can I...
It's the only place you can score.
It's the only place you can score, not top corner.
And I think as a defender, you're half thinking, go on, hit it, because half the time it'll skew it wide or something.
