Roy Hodgson says Palace’s determination for an equalising goal was a positive in their defeat to Southampton at St Mary’s.
“It got away for us because we had a little dodgy period either side of half-time,” he said in his post-match interview. “We missed a penalty which would have put us in quite a nice position going into the interval, and then as soon as the second-half started they got that goal that does change things.
“The second-half certainly evened out, though we had some chances of our own and we decided in the last 20 minutes to go for it.
