'Zaha is an amazing player'

The Ivorian went on a mazy run past several Huddersfield defenders, before slamming a ferocious strike into the top corner.

The goal was enough to give Palace their first win since the opening day.

Zaha had been a doubt before the match due to a groin injury, but he recovered sufficiently to play a key role in the match.

Teammmate Kouyate said: "It was an unbelievable goal, yes.

It was a solo goal. We know Wilf is an amazing player, a very, very good player, but today - what a goal for him. He's very important for us."

The win leaves Palace in 11th, while Huddersfield are currently languishing in 17th.
