Crystal Palace boss Glasner: Forest draw two points lost

Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner was frustrated after their 1-1 draw with Nottingham Forest.

Jean-Philippe Mateta had Palace ahead before Chris Wood's equaliser.

Glasner said: “It feels like two lost points, but we had enough chances and we've created them brilliantly in different situations. Congratulations to my staff, set-pieces were brilliant today and with all those options, always dangerous.

“In some phases of the game, we were under pressure, too much under pressure, and then they had the quality to score a goal. We know that [Chris] Wood is a fantastic player in the box, and in this situation, we didn't get enough pressure on the ball.

“There were some phases where we weren't confident enough with the ball. We took the lead, and normally you should have confidence. We were under a lot of pressure. We lost the ball too early, and then we did it much better before half-time. Also, we had the chance to score the second goal, and in the second-half, there were chances.

“I think we created a lot of chances, and it's not too easy here. Liverpool scored a winning goal in the 98th minute, so it's not too easy here.

“They are very good at home, and creating so many chances gives you a lot of confidence for our next weeks. The players did really fight until the end of the game. But at the end, what counts is the result, and so we have to accept it, we have to respect it.

“An away point in the Premier League is a good point, and so we respect it."
