Zaha admits taking initiative to drive Palace to victory over Wolves

Wilfried Zaha was happy to prove the matchwinner as Crystal Palace defeated Wolves 2-1.

Zaha admits he took the initiative to create the winner on the night.

He explained: "We had to dig deep. We were playing well in the first half but the goal was a massive blow.

"We had to keep going. This is what it takes in the Prem. We knew we had it within us and we got what we deserved.

"I took it upon myself to move from left wing and float a bit. It opened up room for Tyrick (Mitchell). It made a confusion in their defence, who to go to, and that opened them up a bit."
