Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has revealed his delight at moving closer to Premier League survival after the Eagles picked up an emphatic 3-1 victory over Burnley on Saturday.
An own goal from Burnley's Phil Bardsley gave Palace the lead, and second-half goals from both Michy Batshuayi and Wilfried Zaha ensured they picked up a vital three points against a team who also find themselves in the bottom half of the league table.
Speaking to the BBC after the game, Hodgson insisted Palace are now moving closer towards safety in the division. He said: "Well it's just three points closer to that total you know you're going to need to give yourself a good chance of staying in the league, that's what it is.
