Glenn Murray hails "massive" Crystal Palace win

Glenn Murray has described Crystal Palace's win over Stoke City as "massive" in their bid to avoid relegation.

The Eagles made it two consecutive victories in the Premier League on Saturday as they left the Britannia Stadium with the spoils.

Palace are now 11 points clear of the drop zone with eight games left to play this season.

"It's massive for us, especially getting six points before the start of the international break. It's a real boost for us," Murray, who got on the scoresheet against Stoke, told the club's official website.

"I think the way we play suits us away from home and we have plenty of confidence when we travel on the road. Time will tell if 36 points is enough for safety but we'll keep fighting for every point."

Murray and his teammates are back in action on April 6 when they host champions Manchester City in the league.
