Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew has criticised the performance of referee Mark Clattenburg after his side fell to a 2-0 home defeat to Hull City.

Dame N'Doye put Hull into the lead in the second half, but Palace thought that they had equalised when Yaya Sanogo headed the ball in.

However, Clattenburg ruled the effort out for a foul on Paul McShane, which Pardew disagreed with and he also felt that his side should have been given a penalty.

He told BBC Sport: "Key decisions went against us. The first goal was handball, we had a penalty with Wilf [Zaha], I think we had a penalty when Glenn [Murray] should have scored in the first half. And then our [disallowed] goal, I think that's a tough call.

"We were poor today though, we weren't at it at all, and we'll address that in our way."

Palace have now lost back-to-back home games 2-0.
