Crystal Palace manger, Patrick Vieira and his boys fought like brave soldiers Monday night to deny Manchester City of victory in their EPL battle that ended goalless.

Crystal Palace playing in front of their fans at their Selhurst Park stadium home repelled the incessant bombardment of a desperate City side who like Putin needed victory badly to widen their lead on the EPL log.

City who last month commanded a very comfortable 11 points lead now lead Liverpool by just four points with Liverpool having a game in hand.

Crystal Palace manager, Vieira after the game was full of praise for his boys describing their performance as “very pleasing”.

Pep Guardiola on his part rued the avalanche of begging chances his team threw away, especially in the first half.
