New Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner was delighted with their 3-0 win against Burnley.

Chris Richards, Jordan Ayew and Jean-Philippe Mateta (p) struck for the triumph.

Glasner said: “We played a brilliant first half. We were very dominant and created chances and then I said okay, stay patient and we will create our chances and congratulations to the players they did it fantastic and deserve all the credit.

“Sometimes the players forget about keeping the balance in the game but how we forced the red card was brilliant and we attacked very high. It was really nice to see. We had a great spirit from the beginning and the players tried to do everything that the analysts prepared for them. Also thank you to my staff because we were only here for three days.

“My feeling was the fans were happy to see the players attacking and fighting, they were very loud, this is what we want. They had a great afternoon and now they can go somewhere in a pub and enjoy one or two beers."
