Brighton boss De Zerbi on Palace draw: Young players will make mistakes

Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi was happy after their 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

Palace had the lead through Jordan Ayew before Danny Welbeck's late headed equaliser on Thursday night.

"I think we played in a different way in the second half, played with more energy and invention to score," Brighton boss De Zerbi told Sky Sports afterwards.

"We concede another bad goal and we can play better and we can't lose the ball in that way. We have to accept the policy of the club is to play with many young players.

"With the young players, you have to give them time to make mistakes."
