Huddersfield boss David Wagner on Crystal Palace defeat: Best performance of season

Huddersfield Town boss David Wagner was left frustrated after their 1-0 defeat at home to Crystal Palace.

Wagner described the afternoon's performance as the best of the season despite his men losing out to a sole Wilfried Zaha stunner which handed the points to the visitors Crystal Palace.

"The effort the players have shown and how the created opportunities was good and we defended very well," said Wagner.

“It was the best performance of the season and we created so many opportunities; we were unlucky.

"It was not the first goal Zaha has scored in this situation; we have to do better."

Wagner took the positives from the defeat against Crystal Palace, explaining that if performances like this continue, Town will collect more points.

"If we perform like this again we will score our goals and collect our points. We were definitely unlucky.

"We controlled the game both in the middle and the defence, and also on the wings."
