Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson revealed match-winner Wilfried Zaha defied the doctors to return so soon after injury and seal a 1-0 win at Huddersfield. “It was a wonderful goal, wasn’t it?” said Hodgson after the Eagles secured their first Premier League win since the opening day. “Had we had the margin of a second goal – and I thought we were close on a few occasions – I would have replaced (Zaha). “This is the truth and maybe this could be one of the headlines after this game,” he said.
