Norwich boss Hughton delighted with victory over Palace

Norwich City boss Chris Hughton was delighted with victory over Crystal Palace.

Gary Hooper's goal on 30 minutes proved enough to give the Canaries a much-needed victory.

Hughton felt his side - hit by injuries to key midfielders Anthony Pilkington and Robert Snodgrass last week - produced the required response.

"It feels like a big win for us," Hughton said.

"We played very well in the first half and scored a good goal, but we knew they would come back.

"It is never comfortable viewing when you look at the league table and you are in a position you do not want to be in, so whatever places we have jumped tonight is a nice feeling."
