Jason Puncheon: 'Weather made life difficult'

Crystal Palace winger Jason Puncheon feels that the heavy rain at Selhurst Park prevented his side from getting a win as they were unable to play to their full potential.

Crystal Palace winger Jason Puncheon believes that the weather conditions at Selhurst Park stopped his side from taking all three points in their clash with Norwich City.

Heavy rain bombarded Selhurst Park throughout the match, as Palace earned a point from the game. Puncheon scored a first-half penalty to cancel out Bradley Johnson's opener for the Canaries.

He told BBC Sport: "It was played in difficult conditions. There was no nerves for the penalty, I wanted to take it for more confidence. You desperately want three points, but the conditions played a part."

Palace are 18th in the Premier League following the draw.
