Ghanaian international Jeffrey Schlupp is happy with Crystal Palace 1-1 draw with Burnley in the English Premier League on Saturday.
Schlupp gave the Eagles the lead in the 9th minute before Milivojevic scored an own goal in the 46th minute as the game went on to end in a draw.
The Ghanaian maintains that it was a good outing despite Palace failing to pick the maximum points at Selhurst Park.
“We went 1-0 up in the first-half and started the second-half really sloppy. They scored the goal and I thought it was a bit of a scrappy game in the end and a well-earned point.” Schlupp stated in the post match presser
“I thought we started well,” he reflected. “We started on the front foot, had a couple of half-chances, some good moments and managed to get the goal we wanted. I think we probably needed to try and kill the game off in the first-half, to be honest.”
“We had some good moments. In the second-half of course we had some good chances but I thought it was probably a bit of a 50/50 second-half and a draw was a fair result.
“We worked so hard for it in the first-half and to come out and start the second-half the way we did is not acceptable. We got punished straight await. We know what the Premier League is like and what Burnley are going to bring and they came up for it and it was a good battle in the end.”
It was Schlupp’s third goal against Burnley in his last three games with them.
