Crystal Palace boss Hodgson insists Souare fine after fans clash

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson insists Pape Souare is fine after a row with away fans at the end of their Carabao Cup defeat at Bristol City.

Souare saw his shirt thrown back at him following the loss in Bristol, despite the player having recently returned after a year out due to a serious car crash.

Hodgson said that one supporter does not represent their entire fanbase.

He declared: "Fans at the game show their displeasure at coming all that way and seeing their team beaten and I can fully understand that, and I think they are more than entitled to do that."
