Holloway thrilled after Crystal Palace progress to playoff final

Ian Holloway was extremely proud of his Crystal Palace players after they progressed to the promotion playoff final with a 2-0 win at Brighton & Hove Albion on Monday night.

The Eagles will meet Watford in the Premier League promotion decider on May 27 following the 2-0 aggregate win which was made possible by a scoreless draw at Selhurst Park and tonight's victory at the Amex Stadium.

Holloway was delighted after the triumph which came courtesy of a double from Wilfried Zaha who is set to join Manchester United in the summer.

"That's six undefeated now. I'm very proud of the players, I could burst," he told Sky Sports.

"We will meet Watford in the final and they are a great side but so are we.

"I am pleased for all the people at the club, especially the fans."
