Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta insists there's positives to draw from defeat to Liverpool.

Mateta struck from the spot in Saturday's 2-1 loss.

"It's sad because we were 1-0 up and we conceded two goals in the end," Mateta told BBC Sport.

“[The goal] was my first one this season and hopefully more are coming.

“It was much better against a big team in front of the fans. We showed character, but it was not victory today.

“It was a good performance but we didn't win. We'll keep going, working hard and next week maybe it'll be a good result."
