Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Matteta admitted that his goal played a crucial role in the team's home victory over Brentford, a win the team desperately needed. In the 30th minute, Matteta calmly headed in a free-kick created by Jeremy Pinault after a header from Jefferson Lerma, breaking the deadlock for Crystal Palace.
This goal continued the French international's excellent form. Last month, he scored a hat-trick against Bournemouth at Selhurst Park. Despite scoring again, the Crystal Palace striker attributed the victory to his teammates, thanking them for their support and assists.
After the match, Jean-Philippe Mateta said: "I am very excited, this victory means a lot to us. I saw Jefferson Lerma get the ball and immediately start his run. The moment I headed the ball with the right side of my head, I knew it would go in."
“We must continue to trust each other. This victory is inseparable from the efforts of the whole team; I couldn’t have accomplished it alone. The atmosphere in the locker room is fantastic, and it’s always a pleasure to play with this team. I hope we can win more games and will do our best to achieve the best results.”
