«Breaking News» Zaha claims 'I'd have to get my leg broken for anyone to get a card'

Wilfried Zaha says he needs to have his leg broken before an opponent is shown a yellow card after his stunning strike gave Crystal Palace a 1-0 win at Huddersfield.

The winger was the subject of some heavy challenges on Saturday and picked up a yellow card himself for what appeared to be a retaliatory tackle.

Zaha also complained that he is treated differently than other players — and revealed a lack of protection makes him think twice about going on long runs.

He said: 'I feel like I'd have to get my leg broken for anyone to get a card. That's why I lose my head. Why am I getting different treatment from other players? It is every week. I've tried to speak to the referees. There's nothing I can do any more. It's hard. 

'It doesn't make you want to go on a run because someone will come through the back of you and it doesn't allow you to express yourself. At the same time, I have to let my feet do the talking, which I did today.'

Zaha's goal was majestic. In the 38th minute he picked up the ball close to the right touchline, took a couple of step-overs before firing into the far corner. Palace had lost the last 12 Premier League matches in which Zaha was not involved.

His influence helped secure a first Palace victory since their opening-day triumph at Fulham, which left David Wagner's hosts still searching for a first win of their second season in the top flight.

But Zaha was given his usual rough treatment, cynically brought down early on by Zanka before picking up a yellow of his own for a shove on Florent Hadergjonaj soon after.

The winger proved to be the match winner, though, scoring a stunning goal to seal victory

'You see it with Raheem Sterling, Leroy Sane, the Manes, the Salahs — those players that are quick and good with running with the ball they get fouled, they have to accept this will happen,' said Palace manager Roy Hodgson.

'Unfortunately for Wilf he has a strong sense of justice, he doesn't think people should treat him unfairly but he's learning.'

Huddersfield are now scoreless in 24 of 43 Premier League games but Wagner said: 'We are long enough in football to realise that sometimes you don't get what you deserve. But this was the best performance of the season.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
