Ghana midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp has lauded his Crystal Palace teammates after their impressive victory over Norwich City in the English Premier League on Tuesday.
The Eagles missed star man Wilfried Zaha and Conor Gallagher but managed to stroll past Norwich for a 3-0 win at Selhurst Park. Osdonne Edouard gave Palace an eight-minute lead from the spot, before Jean-Phillipe Mateta doubled the net 30 minutes later and Jeffrey Schlupp rounded off the victory in style in the 42nd minute.

“It was an important result for us today,” he said after the game. “We obviously needed to bounce back well from the game against Tottenham, which we lost. We managed to do that very well today.
“It shows, of course, especially in this period where you have a lot of games coming thick and fast, that we have good squad depth. We’ve shown that again – we rotated a few players and players came in who haven’t played as much as others, and we’ve got two massive players missing for us today, but we still managed to put on a good performance to win 3-0.
“It gives us a lot of confidence going into other games where you might rotate players but manage to keep a high level of performance.”
Jeffrey Schlupp will miss AFCON 2021 after coach Milovan Rajevac failed to name him in his 30-man provisional list.
