Doyle: Palace deserved something from Man Utd

Crystal Palace striker Kevin Doyle felt they deserved something from defeat at Manchester United.

Doyle, who came on late in search of an equaliser following Juan Mata's strike on 67 minutes, believes United didn't test Julian Speroni too much either.

"We were unlucky and we stuck to the gameplan," he told the Croydon Advertiser.

"There were one or two chances from us but we didn't take them. United didn't have many clear-cut chances and it's taken a long range effort with a deflection. On the clear-cut chances, we had the better.

"Fraizer (Campbell) was unlucky, he tried to lob the goalkeeper with his chance. He tried to do everything the right way, as lobbing the goalkeeper was on for him, but it just didn't come off."
