Crystal Palace manager Tony Pulis has heaped praise on his players following their 2-0 victory against Cardiff City in the Premier League.

Cameron Jerome and Marouane Chamakh were on target for the Eagles as they claimed their second win on the bounce.

"Back-to-back wins at home, it gives everyone a bit more confidence," Pulis told Sky Sports News. "We started very sloppy, but we had two great chances before we scored.

"We've got some tough games coming up, especially away, so we needed six points from two games."

The result leaves Palace within the relegation zone, but they are now level on points with West Ham United above them and one point away from Cardiff.
