Crystal Palace boss Hodgson reveals Schlupp scare during Manchester United showdown

Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson reveals he was worried about a possible injury relapse for Ghana midfielder Jeffrey Schlupp during Wednesday's Premier League draw with Manchester United.

After two months in the treatment room, the midfielder made a comeback to action as an 84th-minute substitute as The Eagles held the Red Devils to a 0-0 draw at Selhurst Park.

It was his first game since sustaining an injury during a 2-0 home win over Sheffield United on January 2. It was indeed mixed feelings for the 28-year-old about the New Year fixture as he scored in the game.
