Crystal Palace defender Gary Cahill was delighted with victory over Newcastle United last night.

Cahill expressed his satisfaction with Crystal Palace's victory over Newcastle United on Tuesday evening, explaining what the victory has done to his side's confidence.

The Palace centre-back, who scored the Eagles' winning goal, told BT Sport: "It was tough. It was wet, it was slippy but we knew the conditions. We dug in in the end, we got three points, back-to-back wins now which is positive now. Very pleased.

"It's massive. I spoke after the West Ham game and said if you get a few wins it breeds confidence; all of a sudden training's enjoyable, going back to the hotel or home is enjoyable – it just breeds confidence. We deserved it against Wolves and we did well today. It's a great three points for us."

He added "I struggled a little bit this season, I had a couple of niggles and didn't have a pre-season which I think was big for me. So I'm kind of chasing sharpness, but that just comes with games. The more games I can get, the quicker I'll be back up to the level I want to be at."
