Luke Dreher reveals difficulty of overcoming injury

Crystal Palace earned themselves a point against top-of-the-table Leeds United today at Selhurst Park, with Luke Dreher netting their first goal as he continues his recovery from long-running injury problems.

The midfielder played a full 90-minutes this afternoon, but revealed that his recovery has been - and still is - "a tough period." He spoke with Palace TV following the game and explained further, saying: "The last two seasons have been really stop/start for me. It's the best part of 18 months I've been out.

"It's been a tough period but I've played in the last few games and it's just a process of building myself up really.
