What highlights from the Crystal Palace vs Leicester match are discussed?
Bakary Sakho, and that is the way to crown it. A third goal which signals three points on the road for Crystal Palace.
Three goals and three points in Crystal Palace's first away win of this Premier League season, and it came at the King Power Stadium against a Leicester side who've been flying of late. But Palace had more attempts, more of them were on target, more touches in the opposition box, and they covered more distance than Leicester, who were reduced to ten men when Ndidi was sent off for picking up his second yellow card. But by that stage, Palace were already 2-0 up through goals from Christian Benteke, And Wilfred Zaha, they've finished celebrating for now and they're with Greg Whelan.
Christian, Wilf, very well done. Wilf, first away win of the season, what a way to get it.
Yeah, the team's buzzing. We played so well today. And we just took our chances, so I'm happy for the squad today.
Honestly. How much did you all need that?
Yeah, I think it's a great result this afternoon. We didn't give them anything.
How did Crystal Palace secure their first away win of the season?
Maybe they had one chance, but I think we deserve those three points. Christian, that elusive first goal at last, your thoughts on getting it? Yeah, I've been really patient. I've been really patient, I've been through a hard time, but I'm a big believer and I really work hard and I just got what I deserve to get. You celebrated by putting your fingers in your ears. What was that message you were sending out? That meant that I won't give up and I will just keep going.
Wilf, did we see today what you two up front can actually do, the big threat that you can cause teams?
Yeah, definitely. Obviously, teams just think because Christian wins headers most of the time. They don't realise that we can both play. And today just showed that we just got our chances and took them.
You certainly took your chance today. Was there something, perhaps a point to prove and something to owe for the rest of the teammates after last week against Bournemouth?
Yeah, I think Wilfred and myself worked really hard to close down the midfielder.
What impact did Wilfred Zaha and Christian Benteke have on the game?
And today we got the chance as well to score. And we're really pleased with that.
But after the issue with missing the penalty last week, was this an opportunity to sort of say thank you to your teammates, if you like? You feel like perhaps you owed them one?
Not on something because we are a team, but I just wanted to show that I'm always involved and I will do everything to get back on my form. Well, terrific second goal. What a time to get it as well.
Yeah, obviously, it was the next person to get the next goal. It was the main thing. So we just carried on playing the way we were playing. And when I got the chance, I thought I have to at least hit the target and I'm buzzing to score.
You're temporarily out of the bottom three again. How good a chance as players do you now feel you've given yourselves to get out of trouble?
To be honest, I've always had confidence in the team. We're having a good run, so it was only a matter of time before we started putting the performances together and just getting up the table, really.
What were the key factors contributing to Leicester's defeat?
Well, congratulations on a great away win. Wilf, you're the Premier League man of the match. Christian, would you mind doing the honours for us, please? Very well done, guys.
Thank you.
Well, Christian Benteke and Wilfred Zaha kind of keeping a lid on it there, but you can be more effusive, Clinton. What did you make of Palace's performance?
No, I thought it was a fantastic performance. Before the game, I think Palace would have came here and took a draw, the great run Leicester had been on, but I thought to a man they defended brilliantly and going forward in Wilfred Zaha and Benteke and Loftus-Cheek, who had a very good game, them three were the difference.
There were differences in terms of individual performances, but as a team, what did you make of their approach to this match against Leicester?
I thought it was great. It's strange to see them in this position. With a performance like that, they should never really be in this position.
