Crystal Palace manager Alan Pardew has admitted that he is 'frustrated' to have witnessed his side suffer defeat at the hands of Bournemouth at Selhurst Park on Tuesday night.

The Eagles went 1-0 up in the 27th minute thanks to Scott Dann, but goals from Marc Pugh and Benik Afobe ensured that all three points went Bournemouth's way.

"We just cannot seem to find a goal," BBC Sport quotes Pardew as saying. "It was a frustrating evening - a lot of good play, but another defeat.

"Bournemouth worked very hard and they scored with their two chances. It's hard to take that we've lost but we have to rebound. We lacked a bit of quality - we were up for the battle but you've got to have both sides."

Palace are 11th in the Premier League table, while Bournemouth have stretched to seven points above the drop zone.
