Wilfried Zaha will be on his way to the Premier League no matter what happens, but he may have just given Crystal Palace their most important goals this year in the Play-Off semi-final against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Check out some quick highlights of the game below, with both of Zaha’s goals, as well as the best of the action from the rest of the game.

Wayne Bridge switches off completely and gives United’s new signing the chance to nip in and slot his header past United old boy Tomasz Kuscszak for his first goal, but his second shows his strength, as well as a decent ability to finish.

Gus Poyet’s men will have to wait until next year to have another crack at promotion, but Palace were the better team on the night, especially considering that they didn’t have their top scorer Glenn Murray, who was injured on Friday.
