Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha confident results will come
Sunday 6 November 2016 14:19, UK
Wilfried Zaha believes it is imperative Crystal Palace remain positive after their 3-2 stoppage-time defeat to Burnley on Saturday.
The Eagles battled back from an early two-goal deficit to draw level at Turf Moor, only to lose out to a stunning winner from Clarets substitute Ashley Barnes.
The result puts pressure on Palace manager Alan Pardew, but Zaha is confident results will go their way if they carry on working hard.
"You can't put your head down, you've just got to carry on going because no one else is going to do it for you," he said. "You have to keep plugging away.
"We stayed on the ball more [in the second half], we didn't get rid of it. We kept it and tried to make more opportunities - I think that's why it was different."

Zaha provided the cross for Connor Wickham's goal which made it 2-1 and started the comeback for Palace.
The 23-year-old confirmed he has taken a different approach to his game for this campaign.
"I'm not rushing things as much this season, I'm trying to go for better quality over quantity, so when I'm crossing it in I'm trying to pick out someone instead of just whacking it in there hoping for the best," he said.
"I think that's what has changed - I'm slowing down and trying to pick out people."
