Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew has claimed that his side should have beaten Manchester United in their goalless draw at Selhurst Park.
The Eagles spurned several opportunities throughout the contest as Yohan Cabaye, Scott Dann, Damien Delaney and Dwight Gayle all failed to hit the target when presented with chances on goal.
Pardew was left to bemoan his side's lack of clinical edge, but was pleased that Palace managed to end a run of three-straight defeats.
He told BBC Sport: "We should have won. It was an excellent performance from us - as good as we have been all year.
"United - and it doesn't happen very often - were probably fortunate to get a point.
"It was a shame we didn't win it but with the run we've been on we needed to take something, so the point was important for us. We got back to the real Crystal Palace today."
Palace are eighth in the Premier League following their draw against United.
