Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson was happy with their 1-1 draw at Everton.

Hodgson says his Palace side were deserving of their draw at Goodison Park as a late Michy Batshuayi equaliser cancelled out Everton's first-half opener.

“I don't agree with that," he said in his post-match press conference, when asked if Palace had been lucky to secure a result. “We came back from 1-0 down, but we had as much possession as them, we had as many opportunities as them and we had as many chances as them.

“I am pleased that we got back in. I'm grateful to our 'keeper, but the chances came haphazardly and not from us getting cut open.

“Otherwise I thought we were every bit as good as Everton."
