PREMIER - Zaha praises fellow goalscorer Gallagher for victory at Man City

Crystal Palace attacker Wilfried Zaha praised fellow goalscorer Conor Gallagher for victory at Manchester City. Zaha and Gallagher struck for the visitors, while City had Aymeric Laporte sent off.

“[Conor] brings a lot of energy," Zaha explained. “Obviously, playing up top I needed people to link up with. He gets up and down which makes a lot of difference, when he gets up and helps out.

“Obviously [Vieira] knows what he's talking about. We've all seen him do it. It's a bit surreal because I've seen him and he's an amazing player. The way he's trying to play, because he's done it himself, it's easy to buy into it.

“The players are buying into it, and the performances are coming as well. Obviously it's coming bit by bit – it's different, but slowly the results will come."
