Hojbjerg: 'We got a good reaction'

Palace were lacking Wilfried Zaha as Danny Ings and Hojbjerg grabbed the goals and the three points. 

Speaking to Southampton's official website after scoring his first Premier League goal, Hojbjerg said: 

"The last few games have had some positives, even though we shouldn't have lost against Leicester.

"We came back and got a good reaction, taking on what we needed to do tactically and we delivered.

"There are two feelings in the dressing room and they are that we are very happy and relieved because we've been working for a result like this for a time now. Everyone in and around the club will share that feeling too.

"Credit to Palace because it's a very tough place to come. They are good at creating momentum and physically putting the opponent under pressure.

"With a little bit of luck, we stood against them and got a clean sheet and a win. Winning is like medicine - it saves your life."
