FT: Crystal Palace 0-0 Leeds

Crystal Palace

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner, speaking to BBC Match of the Day: “We could have done better, but we know that sometimes it can be more difficult [playing 10 men]. In a few other games we have been in a similar situation. We were getting nervous and taking the wrong decisions. We weren’t clinical enough in the final third.

“In the end, a point and another clean sheet. It is progress. We have to stay calm and stay in our structure because I feel we are losing our structure then.”

How can you improve? “It’s not just one topic. We have won many times with a deep block and I remember we won against Brighton with two red cards. It’s not so easy, especially when Leeds are so organised and so physical.

“Sometimes you need a player who will win in a 1v1 situation, but to be honest we don’t have plenty of them.”

On Leeds’ sending off: “I didn’t know. The players behind me on the bench told me. It’s clear that a second yellow is a red.”

What were you and Daniel Farke talking about going in to half-time? “We were talking about that maybe this isn’t the nicest football game in the world. At the end, a draw is fair. Credit to Leeds for how they defended. We take this point.”
