Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira admits a tactical switch helped rescue a point at West Ham.

Conor Gallagher struck twice for the visitors on the day.

Vieira elaborated on just how Palace managed to score those goals in the second-half: “One thing we needed to change [from the first-half] was running a little bit more in behind.

“I think in the first half it was easy for West Ham to defend because we played into feet.

"In the second-half we stretched them a bit more and created chances for our forwards to get inside the box and we managed to score those goals."
